young man who gave his name as

himself to be a Los Angeles real estate
dealer, and who, indeed, was recognized
by one or two persons here who had
known him in that city. On May 23d,
which was about the date Of his
arrival, he presented to Wells-Fsrgo's
cashier draft for $4,000, drawn
by Mrs. Amy Croker in favor
OF third party whose name has not yet
been divulged. The draft seemed to be
properly Endorsed and upon Chandon
being endorsed by gentleman who had
known him at Los Angeles, the draft was
paid and forwarded to San Francisco for
collection. Chandon and the young
man who was with him Immediately dis
appeared, and have not yet been seen.
