A CONFIDENCE OPERATOR.

He Takes in Some Mercantile Greenhorns
and SwIndles Some Shrewd Persons Be-
sides.
There was some terrible squealing, to
employ street phrase, among several ac-
commodating st. Paul gentlemen yester-
day, consequent upon their having been
bodily left by a high-toned confidence
swindler whose operations IN this city
were quite as daring as they were bold
and extensive.
A few days ago there arrived in this
city from Winnipeg well dressed, plaus-
ible looking and accomplished young
Englishmen named Alfred Hespler, said
to have high connections in Manitoba
and the East.
He carried first class credentials from
prominent men in the provinces and
possessed of easy and graceful manners,
he found no difficulty in getting into the
good graces of several well known gen.
tlemen of this city.
He commenced his crooked work by
obtaining an introduction to the firm of
Ransom & Horton, of whom he purchased
a 5000 seal skin cloak and a seal cap for
$2l, giving IN payment check for $221
on the Merchants National bank, of En-
merson.
He next sought out Mr.. H. L. May and
prevailed upon that gentleman to endorse
worthless draft for $55. Looking for
pastures green he got into the good
graces of Mr.. John Smith, of the st.
Louis saloon, on Jackson street, and that
gentleman contributed $25 borrowed
money and in view of. later develop
ments he let Mr. Smith down light.
Ehle Allen was next seen to the tune OF
$27. so, in the way of slight loan you
know, and several other gentlemen were
taxed for smaller amounts. Ehle, how
ever, secured the checks for his baggage
and is so much ahead. The cat got out
of the bag last Tuesday when the check
for 1921 was returned to Messrs. Ransom
s. Horton, as worthless. Then every
body smelt mouse and inquiry was set
on foot for some trace of the bad young
man. 1t was learned that he had been
west and passed through st. Paul on
Tuesday, taking the noon train for the
East. The wires were set working and
sure enough he was found to be on the
train
Capt. Clark telegraphed the authorities
at Winona to put him under arrest, and
when the train arrived he was taken into
custody. Detective O'Connor left yester-
day morning and is expected back with
his man to-day. It was also ascertained
that he had sent the seal sack to Chicago
and getting wind of its whereabouts MIR.
Horton has gone to that city to secure the
property.
A telegram was received from Winona
yesterday afternoon, stating that Hespler
had retained counsel and that he could not
be taken away without warrant. Chief
Weber and Mr.. May swore out state
warrant fer his arrest and it was forward
ed last night.
