SWindled NebraskaDs.

OMAHA, Neb., July 1.-THE commits
sion tirm of Harrison Il Co. has gone out
or business by the sudden departure OF
the head OF the firm last Saturday. In
vestigatiOn shows that the firm consisted
Of one man named John Roach, and that
by unusual cunning and Doldness he had
bealen country merchants in 81 parts Of
the state out OF sums aggre eating $40, 900.
La(e IN Inc winter q shrewd appearing
man about 30 years OF age nailed the sign
or Harrison & Co. over the door Of the
brick store at lS0S ST. Mary avenue and
announced himself as the head of a great
hfm OF commission merchants. T. the pro-
cuce season opened he flooded t!.c mails
with circulars explaining 10 country
merchants the magnitcence OF his estab-
lishment. He paid particular stress
upon his storage facilities and wrote ex-
travagant descriptions Of refrigeratCrs
With a capacity for 90. 600 pounds of but
ter aud his cold storage room for Is 600.
lie was liberal, too. and when the o,ber
commission firms Of the city were offer
ing IL cents per dozen for eggs Harrison
* Co. bu!led the market ut Is and IA
cents. C~oDsignments came 10 him N
large numbers. In fact one leading
commission man says Harrison 4 Co. for
a time got the bulk Of the produce con
signed to the city. He refused TO dabble
with the petty retail trade OF Omaha
and reshipped his produce al once
to the Boston market. He was
prompt in everything save his re-
mittances. Plausible excuses were plenty,
however, and his time was pretty evenly
divided between shipping goods to Bos-
ton and writing 10 his customers. promis-
ing 10 pay them the amount due the first
Of next week. Finally several of his
customers wrote him that unless he re
mitted at once they would come to
Omaha and institute criminal proceed
ines against him. AT this point he left
the city and the swindled merchants
placed the matter in the hands Of the
police too late TO capture him. His cold
storage house proves to be a myth. His
mammoth refrigerator has dwindled 10 a
So ice chest that never held anything but
ice enough TO keep his beer ralatable.
