was night Waterman in a Harlem bank
Christmas morning he is said to have
found sachel containing $40, 600 under
one of the counters of the bank. He
notified the president, who, it is said,
received Ryan's find without comment

ans wife asserts that he hoped for a

disappointment caused his mind to
give way.
Many Bogus Passes Found.

broker at 2O2 Clark street, the police
found in one Office bogus passes, most
y editorial, which apparently repre-
sented $50, 900 that had been secured
from unsuspecting strangers. The dis
.overy has led to the belief that a
band OF swindlers in the guise of tick
brokers is in existence in Chicago
and reaping a harvest by the sale of
bogus tickets.
