A VICTIM OF SHARPERS.
How Edward Jones Was SwindIed Out
of the Truekee Saloon.

How Edward Jones Was Swfndled Out
of the Truekee Saloon.
The San Francisco Breweries Nimiled)
and Daniel Kearney have been sued in the
justices Court by Edward Jones for resti-
tuition of the Truckee saloon on Mnna
street, or 5000. Jones is represented to be
man whose simple mindedness was shame
fully abused by sharpers.
He had saloon on Polk street and was
induced by one Holt to purchase the Truckee
saloon for SIT. 1t was represented to him
that as he had one place, the Police Com
missioners would probably not grant him
second license, for which reason the bill Of
sale was made out to +. NJ Holt, a nephew
of the frst-named, this nephew agreeing to
procure a license. AS matter of fact, he
did not, and in the meantime one Gregory,
6arkeeper IN the Ifuckee, had cards
printed, representing himself and Holt as
the pTopretorS.
Some one gave information to the police
and all were arrested for running the place
without a license. On tue trial Holt and
Gregory swore they had no ownership in
the place, while Jones honestly admitted
that he was the owner. and having been
found guilty was fined 500 aud sentenced
to serve 100 days in the County Jail While
in the lookup an individual made arrange
ments TO sell the TTuckee saloon, aud. in
Iact, on the 81 INST. ulu sell Inc place 10 the
breweries for S100. the deed of sale naming
500 as the consideration and John Winters
of the United States Brewery Witnessing
the signature.
The 500 was received by Holt, who
bought himself suit of clothes and
sacque for his wife and has disap-
reared. Report has it that he has
gone to Chicago. The breweres syndicate,
having bought the place innOcently, were
about to sell it again TO Kearney, who was
found in possession when Jones filed his
complaint. after ascertaining what had taken
place during his incarceration. Within u
little more than one year Jones has thus, in
various transactions, been WheedIed out Of
S1700.
He was a customer of Alfred Greenebaum,
whose insolvency is agiiating the business
community. He had bought goods from him
for the Poik-street saloon and rendered a
check for $1,000 in payment. Asserting that
the former owner still owed the firm, Greene
baum actually deducted S145 for that in-
debte1ness from the sum Of the cheek pre-
sented by Jones in payment OF the goods
bought by him.

HOW THE BEE WAS ROSE"
Lnydon VIM Not Take a Back Seat for
WhiteIaw.

" hitetaWs
The assignee Of barley Layton & Co. was
awarded judgment for $40 against r. Hew-
son by Justice of the Peace Campbell yester-
day for raising the steam launch Bee, which
had sunk On December %, 1891, in Shelter
Cove, North Beach. Hewson claimed that
he attempted to raise her by fastening a
chain to the smokestack. so that when the
donkey-engne started something had TO
give. The smokestack did give, and this
novel process OF submarine engineering had
damaged the launch $500 worth, and the
attempt afterward TO float her was as sue
cessful as would have been the case with a
sieve.
On the other hand Layton showed that
the launch had become embedded in mud
and sand and he raised her by this method
only enough to pass ropes under her keel
and haul her to the surface right side up
with care, so that no more than about 81 so
damage had resulted on account of the slip
ping of the bowline knot. 1t was also in
proof that the launch lay under water for
one week before any attempt to raise her
was made and that after taking the ma
ChiDery out Of her Hews0n sold the hull
for S170 to Boatman Kane, who plugged the
holes made 10 let the water and mud run
cut of her and used her on the bay for six
months before undertaking any repairs.
Layton was represented by counsel in the
case, but he won it without bis assistance,
when he announced to the court with wild
gesteuiatons that for yeers he bad rose
things in the bay. lie had rose" barges and
things, and when it came to ''r0sing" small
schOoneTs he would not take a back seat
for mo mau, sir, not for no man, sir, not
even for WhItelaW, sir.

THE EXPOSED WORLD.

The bubble of pretension was never
more neatly pricked than in the case of
the New York World. The Sun ap-
piled the needle.
The World published two articles,
evidently clumsy forgeries, which
aroused the Suns ire. One purported
to be an interview with Bismarck, the
other with Prof. Schiaparelli, and both
were marked special cable and copy
righted. The SIN offered to give Al 900
TO the Tribunes fresh-air fund if the
dispatches were proved genuine. The
World exhibited what looked like the
original cable sheets to Mr.. Nicholson
of the Tribune, who declined to have
anything to do with 1t. Then the World
claimed the money.
The .Swa hasn't paid it. Instead it
published yesterday: /, n denial of the
Bismarck interview by DR.. Hoffman,,
who was said in the despatch to have
introduced the reporter; 2, similar
denial from Prof. Schiaparelli; 3, an af-
fidavit from the writer of another
fake despatch, who swears that he
was in New York at the time. gave the
story to Col. Harvey of the World and
that il appeared under cable headlines,
TO his surprise.
But the gem of the Suns exposure is
the fact that the cable message exhib-
tied by the World people was really
genuine. On August the alarmed edi-
tors cabled the entire Bismarck inter-
view, which first appeared July If, to
London with instructions to cable it
back immediately with the original
date line.
If this plot had succeeded and the
Sun had paid over its 1900, would not
the World have been guilty of obtain
ing money on false pretenses? Every
decent newspaper man will be glad that
it did not succeed and that the methods
of this unprincipled paper are SO thor
oughly shown up.
The paper giant Of mushroom growth
has from the very first lived by trickery
