DIDN'T FOOL THE AMERICAN.
Two Men Sent to Prison for Irving to
Swindie Him.

Southampton, Oct. 1.-two we'll
dressed men, named Martin Nolan and
William Moran. We're sentenced to six
months Imprisonment at hard labor
today for attempting to obtain the
sum OF $500 from William Stahr. an
American, by means of confidence
trick. Moran met Stair In London, and
in the course of conversation remarked
that he was about to return To st.
Louis, where he owned drug stores. as
ne also did In Chicago Stair subse-
quently came to Southampton and
again met Moran. The two had drinks
together. and while thus engaged Nolan
made his appearance.
Nolan represented himself as Il gen
tleman of wealth and philanthroDist.
He had fortune of f100,OOO, he said,
of which 1t was his intention to dis
tribute G25,000 to the poor throughout
the world. In order to carry out his
plan, however. it would be necessary
for him to have assistance, and he
wished to find some men of standing
to distribute some of the money among
the poor of the United States.
After further conversation between
Moran and Nolan, Stair was suggested
as suitable man to take charge of
the distribution in America. Stair
agreed to undertake the work, where
upon Nolan demanded G500 as security
for the proper distribution of the
funds. Stahr's suspicious. which had
already been aroused, became confirm
ed, and he caused the arrest of the
"philanthrOpist" and his confederate.
