TERRAPIN.
Gourmets Are Fast DevOurins the
Product of the United States.

The wild terrdpin are being ral:Gly
eaten up by the g%opr1nets of America.
Each year the supplyGfs smaller and the
price is higher. Fifty years ago terrapin
were plenty and the fishermen of the
Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina
coasts almost lived on them. Now the
price of terrapin has gclimed until last
season some fine n backs sold in
Baltimore for $3.50 a dozen. Ordinary
~dJamond-backS were never less than So
each all winter.
A century ago it is said the slaves of
Maryland made a lively protest against
being fed on terrapin too freely.
The farther south you go the less the
terrapin is worth. The Southern terrap.n
IS coarser and less delicately favored
than the Northern.
Thus. the New York terrapin in 1886
brought seventeen cents a pound, the
New Jersey terrapin the same and the
Delaware terrapin was about as valuable.
thirteen cents, the terrapin of Virginia
for eleven cents, and the terrapin of
Virginia was the largest producer. She
shipped Of consumed locally 49,, 900
pounds of terrapin. North Carolina
came next with 12s, 600 pounds, and
In the State mentioned in the report

duction in 1855 was 1856, 642 pounds worth
SOC, 578. So the average price had adj
vanced in eight years more than fifty
per cent.
But the whole country from Connect
cut to-TeXas produced only 407, 237 pounds
of terrapin, valued at $64. 34S.
The latest statistics at hand are those
for 1891, and they show a jump in the
value of the terrapin which is astonish-
ing.
The Middle Atlantic States produced in
1880 237, 10S pounds of tarraDin. In 1891
the same States produced 157, 0S1 pounds
"a decrease Of 1857 per cent?, and tie
value of the prodriet OF 1891 WIS S44.elS.
or an average nf tw entv-eight cents per
pound. In 1891 the terrap:n was not
worth one-half what it is worth now.
Presently the American millionaire VIII

be to expensive for people of moderate
means. And still there will be '-terrap.n

most terrapin soup is now made, of the

to stew.
An attempt is being mad all along the
coast to foster the remaining supply of
terrapin = to- bring the young into

reach a. marketable size; and to encour-
age the captive terrapin to breed. None
of these terrapin farms have proved Of

THE TRAIL OF A SWINDLERl.
HOW He SOLD TEN LARGE LOTS
IN REDWOOD CITY TO
BEHREND JO0ST.
WHAT CHARLES G. FISHER HAS TO
SAY ABOUT THE TRANS
ACTION.

When the case of Joost VS.. Craig was on
hearing before Commissioner George T.
Knox last Saturday a quarrel arose in
which the lie was passed. Attorneys Les
zinsky and Mullany rushed at each other
Messrs. Craig and. Knox joined in as
peacemakers, and a couple of Superior
Judges who were present also joined in the
melee. Pistols were drawn, but no shots
were fired, and Knox retired feeling sick and
sore from punch in the stomach, while
Mullany was placed in recumb bent po-
sition from short-arm blow delivered by
Lee ID. Craig.
The question at issue was one put to
Behr end Joost by Attorney Leszinsky in
regard to the honor and integrity of
Charles O. Fisher, the real estate agent.
w hen seen about the matter yesterday
Mr.. Fisher said: 81 have an honorable
record in the real estate business of twenty
one years, and now that Mr.. George Les
zinsky, the attorney for my old-time
friend Lee d. Craig, is trying to cast slur
upon me, will tell all | know about the
conveyance and Acknowledgement made
before and witnessed by Notary Craig from
Charles A. Anderson to Behrend Joost.
In April, 1881, a man called at my office
and said he was Charles A. Anderson and
owner of ten lots-in the Abbey Homestead
1AoSoNAebpiOil LII OdI 1udCCO SOuHby. hCCOTu-
ing to him he lived in Redwood City, and,
as his wife was about to get a divorce from
him, he wanted money to fight the case
He wanted to sell the lots, and demanded
the highest cash offer. | told Behrend
Joost about the land and he said he would
give $1,000 for it. Anderson agreed, and
Joost put up deposit of $100. After the
title had been searched Anderson came to
me to sign the deed l could not take him
to notary, as | did not know him, but
he said he would go to George T. Knox,
whom he had known for more than ten
years. He took the deed with him and
returned with it acknowledged before Lee
d. Craig.
II was surprised, and asked him how he
came to overlook Knox and patronize
Craig. 'Oh,' said ne, in an offhand man
ner, 1 have known Mr.. Craig for fifteen
years This being satisfactory, / took the
deed to Mr.. Joost, and, he being satisfied,
the sale was contaminated the deed being
sent to Redwood City to be recorded.
Sixteen months after that real estate

agent offered me the same identical lots.
l laughed and told him they had already
been sold. He was surprised, and brought
me the next day Charles A. Anderson, a
barkeeper at APT California street, who
sad he was the owner of the property. He
gave me the same history as to the
ownership and purchase of the property
and later brought me the deeds and tax
receipts. A thorough investigation fol-
lowed and the property was decided back
to Anderson. The man who made fac
slmlle OF the real owners signature was
Frank G. Koen, formerly a collector in
this city. Every effort has been made
both by Mr.. Joost and myself to discover
ms whereabouts, but we have failed to
locate his whereabouts.
II have asked Mr. Craig how he came to
take the acknowledgment and witness the
signature to the deed, and his answer was
that the man called on him stating that I
sent him there and, recognizing my
writing in the drawing of the deed, he
took 1t for granted it was all right, and not
only acknowledged it, but charged the fee
to my account. From these plain state
ments OF facts it will be easy to see how
innocent am of any intention of wrong
dong and how easy it is to cast a slur
upon those undeserving. In justice to
Behrend Joost wish to say that he never
came In contact with Frank G. Koen, alias
Charles A. Anderson -
