A VERY CROOKED POST.
Disappearance of Albert Post, a
Chicago Freight Claim Agent,
100000 Short.

Chicago Freight Claim Agent,
100000 Short.
CHICAGO, March 19.-Alfred Post, who
for long time ran freight claim bu-
reau here, left Chicago Feb. Is. He left
number of anxious acquaintance who
have In vain tried to locate him. He is
supposed to be in Mexico. He left Os
tensibly for the benefit of his health,
but some of his acquaintances claim
that he left to avoid trouble, and that
his freight claim bureau was nothing
but gigantic bubble. The deputy
sheriff VINO levied on some of Posts
property to satisfy the Judgment of his
creditors, is under the impression that
his liabilities will reach 100000. Post
came to Chicago.from New York about
five years ago and obtained employ
ment in the freight claim de-
partment of the Chicago, Bur
lington g. Quincy railroad. He
was discharged in 1886 and then cOfi-
bureau. His intention was to buy up
claims against the railroad company.
Every railroad has a regul + freight
claim department, where claims for
from S250,000 to S1,000.00O for rebate on
freight charges or damages were pre-
scented each year. Post bought these
claims at from perhaps 25 tO. so cents on
the dollar and then, knowing the rail
read business so much better than the
claimants, he expected to get them
cashed and realize handsomely. Some
how this plan did not pan out as we'll as
expected, and Post then formed CO
partnership with man named Charles
Bcknell. Posts plan for making
money proved failure until he sue
ceeded in interesting a number of mon
friend call on capitalist and invite
him to invest in the bureau, which, it
was represented, would pay Is per cent
a month dividends. By speciOus and
plausible representations Post sue
ceeded in interesting a number
moneyed men and soon branched
out in fine style. living in fashionable
flats in Michigan, and establishing a
private stable, second to none i'm the
city. A short time ago gentleman
was asked by friend in Western town
to investigate the bureau, and finding
no report of it in the mercantile agen-
cieS, pursued his inquiries among the
railroad offices of the city, discovering
that the bureau had no standing what
ever, and that several of the companies
had refused to transact any business
with Post. Calling on the latter, he
claims to have ascertained that from
the time of its inception, that bureau
had not done enough business to pay
expenses. Soon after this Post left the
city, after, it IS claimed, having OBJ
tanned large sums OF money from sew
eral of the investors. The fact of his
disappearance was made known when
attachments on his stable and other
property in this city were sworn. out
Monday evening by Sanford d. Cook,
diamond brokers, of New York. of
whom it is said Post has obtained $1,000
worth of jewelry within the past year
and half. Mrs. Post was preparing to
leave the city Monday night when the
attachments were served.
