CLEVER SHARPERS.
A Slippery Gang is Operating
Successfully Throughout
the est.
T.. az.
Many olatry Banks are Being
Bled to Perfection by
Them.
Reward Offered for a Suspected
Woman How the Ork
liz Done.

New YORK, Nov. PA gang of bank
swindlers is travelling about the coun-
try mainly through the West The
men who compose it are clever their
stories are plausible aud their victims
are generally the country banks. Their
method is to obtain a draft for small
sum from an out-of-town bank on its
New York correspondent. From
this genuine draft they have forged
duplicates made The genuine draft
of course, goes through all right
Then the bogus drafts are presented,
and the swindlers having established
sort of a credit with the genuine
draft and being sufficiently well
known to be identified by the country
bank, the bogus drafts on the New
York bank are generally cashed via
out question.
Some New York bank every little
while will receive in its mail from
Western correspondent bank a bogus
draft drawn upon the New York bank,
and which has been cashed by its
Western correspondent. Of course the
loser in this case is the country bank
which has cashed it for the swindler,
not the New York institution upon
which it is drawn.
The latest instance of this sort of
xwindling was brought to the atten-
ton of the Chase National bank of
this city few days ago. The victims
in this case were the First National
bank and the Germania-American
National bank, both of St Cloud,
Mimi. Each of these banks on Oct.
Q cashed a bogus draft on the
Chase National bank of this city.
the first for $500 and the other for
$500. Both of the drafts purported to
be issued by the National Bank of
Commerce of Tacoma, Wash, on the
Chase National bank of this city
Both were payable to the order of and
were present ted by and cashed for Mrs
Annie A. Murphy. who is said to be a
stepdaughter of Andrew McCrea,
formerly a well-known resident of
Minnesota.
Ia d circular which the two victim
lied banks send out-for the Chase
National does not lose the $l,50O-they
say they will pay reward of $500 for
the arrest of Mrs. Murphy and her de-
livery to the proper officers of the
State of Minnesota. The woman is
described as five feet eight inches
high, weighs 100 pounds. has very dark
hair, cut short and curled, dark-gray
eyes and heavy lips. She is about "a
years old, good looking, of pleasing
address, dashing manners, and may at
any time assume male attire.

TOM PLATT'S OPINION.


New YORK, May !. -Thomas G. Plntt
says there is not word Of truth in tho
statements Published by Elliot f. Shep-
ard, 20 the effect that twenty-siX out Of
the New YorS delegates to Minneapolis
had been instructed TO vote for Harrison,
md that more than 500 delegates hud been
instructed for the president P!ott fur
Their states that both statements are alb
sur1. and evidently emonated from lit
erary bureau in Washington that was en-
gagged in booming the president for re-
nomination. Not one delegate from the
state Of New York hats boon Instructed, -
said Mr. Plat, 'and any statement to the
contrary is without foundation."
In reply to question rs to whether any
ri the delegates would vota for Harrison,
Mr. Plat, after some reflection. replied
with a smile; Colonel Elliott r. Shepard
is a delegate, | believe" Mr.. Platt fur
Their said that Colonel Shepard's pauer
was not authorized to speak for the Re
publican party Of the state nor for the
New York delegation to Minneapolis. Uc
would not discuss Harrison's chances.
