cier IN the United States, and il reputed to
b worth; anywhere from So, 900 900 to &c.,

Griffith Realty and Banking Company.
WAS IN Chicago recently, he was introduced
70 Mrs. Green, Who spent much time in
discussing with him the advantages Of the
Sound country - : good section for in
vestment
Mrs. Green's husband was formerly the
agent for many large stock operators. in
dealing with Henry Wizards bank in Ber-
lin Thus the couple gained between
$4,000. 600 and 5000 900, which Mrs. Green
used - capital for future operations.
During the war she invested largely in
government bonds. and bought consider.
able blocks of thirty-year 7-psr-csnt. bonds
1t the time when American securities were
on the decline. At the close OF the war
these securities rapidly advanced in value,
and increased Mrs. Green's wealth BY sew
eral millions.
Mrs. Green then began specializing in
bank and railroad stocks in Wall street.
having associated herself with Gould, Sage,
Willard and Huntington, aud was so sue
cessful that she won the title Of s'the Witch
of Wall street." She also became asso-
ciated with some Of the great London and
German banks. One Of her most success
full feats in stock manipulation was to Sc
cure = bonus of $500 GOO for control Of !
certain railroad. She left there fifteen or
sixteen years ago and made her headquar-
tiers in Chicago, attracted by the prospect
of larger and moro rapid returns and less
keen composition than exists in the great
cities Of the Atlantic coast She has there
invested chiefly n mortgage and insurance
companies, and during the period Of de-
preston in that city she foreclosed many
mortgages and thus became one of the
largest property owners. She now has .
number Of suits for interest pend ing.
In her conversation with Mr.. Ross, Mrs.
Green said that she had found the Chi
cago market as much crowded, COM
petition - keen and returns as small O. in
New York and Philanelphia. She is con-
stantly looking for new Investments for
her large surplus, and her advisers have
recently been pointing out the advantages
Of the Sound country. She was as much
astonished ~ other Eastern people at the
growth of this country, and inquired a. to
the resources which warranted such an in
crease OF population. She became so inter-
ested that she spent whole afternoon in
conversation on the subject. and said that
as soon as she had settled some law busi-
ness which she now has on hand she would
come out to Seattle and look into invest
ments on the Sound. When Mrs. Green
does decide ON investing in this section
she viii probably place large sums here.

Inspsctor Holden Captures Man and
Woman smaggler.
Taylor Holden. deputy customs inspect
or. made very clever seizure last night of
sixty iive-tael cans Of prepared opium, and
placed under arrest James J. Mclaughlin
and wife.
The vigilant inspector makes : daily
practices Of examining tho baggage that
goes on the train bound for Portland, and
last night at las o'clock the actions of the
two prisoners aroused his suspicious He
waited until they got into sleeper and
then went through the car. On the seat
between them were two valises which we're
closely guarded. Holden began examining
the vslises, and although he made known
his identity. Mclaughlin strenuOusly OBJ
jected to the search, and fought desper-
ately. Officer Harding, Of the police force,
was on hand, ard with bis assistance
Holden took Mclaughlin TO the county
Jail, followed by Mrs. Mclaughlin, who
had also been put under arrest The
woman carried In her arms little girl not
over IA months old. In the valises was
found the opium.
A baggage check for trunk was found
on Mclaughlin. but nothing was found in
the trunk except clothing. Two women
were engaged TO search Mrs. Mclaughlin.
and found 500 on her, but no evidence in
regard to the opium.
Commissioner Emery committed the
man to jail without bonds to await an ex-
animation on Tuesday. The woman will
be held as prisoner in . private family
until the examination. the 500 being held
Is bail.
Mclaughlin and his wife claim that they
live on West Park near H. street, in Port
land, and disclaim all knowledge as to the
opium. They say that the valises do not
belong to them.
The seizure was very cleverly made and
reflects great credit on Inspector Holden.
The opium is worth about 5000.

dropped the lines which were caught
