CLEVER CONFIDENCE CROOKS.

An Illinois Man This Time Earns the En-
viable Title of Sucker---Slich but Some
what Transparent Scheme by Which
Two sharpers Rake in $3.50 From O.
Traveller at st. Paul.
ST. PAUL, July 16.-One of the clever
est confidence games operated in St.
Paul for many moons was played success
fully on John Siegfried; but the oper-
ators are as yet unknown, because they
have not been apprehended. Siegfried
arrived in st. Paul FROM Illinois and in
tended taking the westbound Northern
Pacific train for Seattle, w. I. While
strolling around town he was accosted by
big man man about As years old, with
short-cropped dark whiskers and NOUS
tache. They became engaged in con-
versation, and the stout individual said
he was also going to Seattle on the same
train as Siegfried. AS they walked up
the street a man with chin whiskers
came up and stopped Siegfried's friend,
presenting bill to him The confidence

thousand dollar bill, which, of course,
his accomplice couldn't change Sieg-
fried was appealed to by the first friend,
but only had $3.50 on his person. ssWell,
let me have that" said his new acquaint-
ance, 'fand as soon as we get down
town I'll have the $1,000 bill changed
and give your money back to
you. Siegfried gave up the $3.50, and
confidence man No. 2 was paid the
amount of his bill and walked off. Sieg-
fried and the other party continued up
the street, going, presumably, to the lat
ter's house. When they came to brick
block the stranger who had obtained the
$3.50 said: "Wait here minute until 1
go up and get my wife. We'll all 60
down town together and I'll get this bin
changed"
Siegfried waited. He might have
been there yet, but after standing al
most half al hour he became tired.
Then he went up stairs to find his
friend, but only discovered back stair
way by which the confidence man de-
parted, taking the $3.50 and the alleged
81, 1000 bill. The crooks have not been
seen since, and probably never will be.
Less than eight months ago Siegfried
claimed tnat he lost 500 in saloon in
Portland, Ore, where he was. cleverly
beaten out of that amount. The police
are looking for the successful workers,
but they doubtless left St. Paul within
two hours sfter they had "turned the
trick .,

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.
The House.

WASHINGTON, July consideration
of the subsidy amendment to the post
office appropriation bill was resumed.
Peters (Kansas) supported the amend
nlent, vigorously asserting that this coun-
try does more for labor than England.
We treat our laborers as an intelligent
being; one in whom trust can be imposed
and worthy of owning home. Why
then give England, with her cheaper
labor, the privilege of carrying our mails,
when with Il subsidy, the United States is
amply able to grant, we Gun secure Amer
lean ships, manned with American sail
ors? Talby opposed the amendment, as
subsidy would have a tendency to nour-
ish monopolists. The subsidy amend-
ment was defeated. Vote, 1875 to Sc.

Exports Lighter---Money More Plenti-
ful---Failures for the Week.
New YORK, July 16.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Quiet
hopefulness prevails. That business now
is dull, everybody realizes. That it is
going to be good, more favorable crop
prospects lead people to hope. Then, it
is felt that the chances of change Of
tariff lessen as the weeks pass, leaving
less time for agreement between the two
houses of congress-, and thus an impor-
tant element of doubt as to trade for the
next half year is in part re-
moved The reports from interior
points all reflect a hopeful
spirit, with most frequent reference
to improved crop prospects. Corn and
oats would probably exceed any previous
yield if the weather should prove fairly
favorable from this time onward through
harvest, but the point of greatest danger
is not yet passed. In all directions the
influence of mere speculation upon values
is just now an unhealthy sign. Stocks
have advanced, the more active averag-
ing about SO per share higher than o
week ago, and yet the course of cereals
would have justified some decline. The
renewal of the railroad strike at
Chicago and Kansas City is thought
serious, the cutting of rates has
been so great as to lessen receipts ma
terially, and the later reports of
earnings begin to indicate some loss in
comparison with last year. The closing
OF the Bigelow carpet mills puts 5000
persons out of work for time, and fol-
lowing the closing OF the Lowell mills,
is supposed to indicate over supply. The
decline in building trades is illustrated
by New York returns of 1,G47 new build
ings for the half year, costing s25, 500, 900,
against 1923 for the first half year, cost
ing $47, 800, ,0U0. Exports for the first
week of July were $1,000, 900 smaller
from this port than for the same
week last year. Foreign exchange
is weaker, and the supply of foreign
capital coming hitherward has
not ceased. The treasury has also added
So, ZOO, 900 to the market supply by dis
bursements exceeding the receipts dur

ant, not only here, but at every other
