The most notorious crooks at the present
writing are produced by the Balkan states,
and the police of all civilized countries, es-
pecially Germany and Austria, watch with
terror the influx of thieves, burglars and
crooks of all kinds that are vending their
way westward from Servia, Bulgaria and
Bohemia. Bucharest is known today as
the greatest den of swindlers in the world.
Even the great American centers cannot
hold a candle to Bucharest. 1t is the exit,
SO to speak, the initiative station, for the
crooks of the Balkan states from where
they travel westward to Vienna, Berlin,
Paris, London, Rome and New York. The
international criminal profession is recruit
ed through large contingent of ie un-
civilized element of the Balkan peninsula,
which is still further increased by what
comes from Russia and GaIicia. The inter.
national pickpocket art is, in Europe at least,
almost entirely carried on by Roumanians,
Servians, Bulgarians, Russians and Cali
clans. They outrank in cleverness the once
world famous English and American pro
fessionals in that line.
