SUPPOSED TO BE NEW YORK sHARPERs
Yesterday Mr.. D. A. Jenkins, who has re-
Gently arrived from North Carolina and is stay
ing at the National hotel, while walking up
Pennsylvania avenue. was accOsted by young
man of genteel address, who, calling him by
name, affected to be glad to see him. Mr.. Jen-
kins remarked that he did not recognize him,
to which the young man said that was not
strange, as he left the state several years ago.
He reminded Mr.. Jenkins that his father was
John Mcdowell cashier of the bank in Char
lotte. Mr. Jenkins said he knew Mr.. Mcdowell
the cashier OF that bank very well, and a con-
versation opening up about people in Charlotte,
the young man showing such knowledge of the
residents there. that Mr.. Jenkins felt assured
that he was from that state, and was what he
represented himself to be. They walked on
together and the young man called at SIS 18th
street, stating that he wished to conclude a
business matter. which proved to consist of
obtaining an alleged stake from game of
cards which was dealt by a tall man with a
black mOustache Mcdowell affected to be dis
satisfied with the winning and proposed to try
1t over, which he did. every turn of the cards
being in his favor until Mr.. Jenkins getting
somewhat excited, was induced to try his luck.
He stated that he had no money. but the seedy
tall man said he was willing to take his checks
Jenkins played and lost. and in order to re-
cover himself gave three checks. amounting in
all to over 5000 on the Citizens National
Bank OF Raleigh. N. c.. made payable to bearer.
Having secured the checks, the bunko men
closed the game and left Jenkins also went
out for policeman, but when he returned the
siarpers had left. He then went to 1t. Ar
noid's station for assistance. This officer in
terested himself in the case. and upon inquiry
found that the men had engaged rooms at the
house designated, paying in advance for them.
but they had left and no trace OF them could he
found 1t is his belief that they were New
York blacklegs. All Mr.. jenkins could do was
to telegraph to Raleigh to stop the payment of
them, and to advertise caution notice to the
public not to negotiate them.
