WORKING A NEW SWINDLE.
Man Who Claims to Sell Dress Good,
mt "a Sacrifice.

mt Sacrifice.
A new swindle has just been discovered
and the police are on the lookout for the
man who is operating it.
The game is one of the smoothest that
has ever been worked in this city and the
victims of the alleged swindler are all
women. He is described as being patri-
archial man of distinguished appearance.
He has gray beard which is closely crop
per and a gray mustache. He dresses with
excellent taste and operates among the
best people in the city. His very appear
ance secures him admission to the houses
and after he has once been inside he
loses no time in working his bunco game.
The scheme he employs and has 70 low
ed here with some degree of success is to
sell piece of cloth to the mistress of the
house which is not exactly what he says IL
is. His goods are always of the finest
texture and he allows his victims to eX
anime them and test them as much as
they care to. He generally tells the per-
son to whom he wishes to sell the goods
that he has received the piece from JOAN
Wanamaker. or some other we'll known
dry goods merchant, and, after receiving.
has decided not to take 1t. He protests
that he could not very well send it back
to the merchant and would like to dis
pose Of il at discount.
In one instance he displayed a piece OF
cloth he claimed contained ten yards
which really sold for about 81 per yard.
This piece he offered for $3.50, appars sntly
making a very liberal discount. His story
is told in such Straightforward manner
that he has no difficulty in disposing of
his wares and it is long after he has gone
that the person who purchased the cloth
finds that the piece contains about one
fourth the quantity he claimed. thus max
ing its true value less than was paid for
il. In most cases the piece is double
width and the fraud is not discovered for
some time. How long he has wo;k2d the
game in this city no one seems to know,
but II is not thought he has been here for
a great while. The police are on the
lookout for him.

standard Tailors'. New store.

To meet the demands Of an increasing business,
the Standard Tsilors have opened new store
at OH Pennsylvania Avenue, in addition to the
ing Of the new store, and judging from the num-
erous callers who inspected their goods, there
is every reason to believe fhat the yeptuys viii
prove prosperous one. The Standard Tsiiors
do not deal In ready-made clothing. but 6ll ali
their orders with garments made by their own
tailon. They still occupy the entire building at
the corner Of Eleventh and Streets the greater
part being used for the manufacture OF the goods
gold in their stores: The manufacture Of cloth
ing, as carried on by this company, Is probably
the largest industry Of Its character i1 the
South, and employs many men. An additional
reason for the opening Of the new store was
to reach a class Of patronage that does not
pass the store ON Street. ~.

There was the best eviaens this morn
ing not only of heavy F1owff buying in
his specialtes but of Morgan buying a.
we'll Activity In the stocks generally
manipulated by Mr.. Keene vas also ap-
parent. The people who watch for the
leaders in the market asserted that the
appearances Of the buying this morning
were the best that 1t has had since Fri
day. They predicted a continuance OF an
advance well started in the first hour and
half and expected higher prices at the
close. The course OF the morning was a
high opening a~point more or less above
last nights close, slight recession, and
then good advance again. The activity
again was in the industrials and the spe-
cialties, although there was heavy buying
Of the railroad nst as well. SO that there
was little appearance OF one-sidedness.
The evident intention of the leaders and
the public 10 continue their speculation, In
the sintfusuials is worthy OF Alsse inspec-
tion,. 1t was believed by mahy that the
panff Of last Friday would have the effect
'of t&epint people but Of M a Is of Sc
curities for some time to COME. but ap-
parently nothing of the kind is to happen.
The optimistic offer the suggestion that
this is an Industrial year and that the good
Industrial stocks are bound to reach much
higher prices despite the banks or any
other deterring influences. The industries
of the country are in a most furnishing
condition. j. ! %
II is probable that the iron and steel in
dustries especially were never so prosper
ous before as they will be during the COM
ing twelve months. The public and the.
leaders cannot avoid the logic of this even
II the banks do discriminate against their
stocks in loaning money. The outlook for
the remainder of the week is good but re-
cessions must be looked for although they
are not certain to come. The best lesson
to learn from the slump of last week 10
against overlooking.
The Federal Steel stocks were the fea-
lures Of the market this morning. The
common stock had advanced to 81 and a
fraction before 11:30. and the preferred to
81 IA. Yesterday the common was at 60
at one time and the close was at ca 3-4.
The preferred showed a gain of Ave POINTS
from the low Of yesterday The buying of
these shares was heavy and determined,
and the confident prediction Of the bulls
was that they would soon reach the high
figures of the early part of last week.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit had an even
larger advance than the Steel stocks. but
this was expected generally and did not
cause SO much surprise. Before II o'clock
it had reached 12s. total advance from
yesterdays low Of twelve points. The talk
of the immense summer business to be
done by this road, and of the probability

Sugar, Tobacco, Continental Tobacco,
Peoples Gas and Steel and Wire were all
very strong with good advances in the
morning hours and promise Of a continu-
ance Of the advance. The talk regarding
Continental Tobacco was especially opti-
mistic and 1t Is evident that the leaders
are taking this stock w as well as the 9TH
er specialties. 1t is an even worse gamble
than Tobacco and Sugar. however. and the
advice of conservative people is to let it
alone to big operators who can stand fiuct-
uations Of 40 to so points. II now seems
reasonably certain that the company has
secured all the smaller tobacco concerns
ii has been trying for and that in the
course Of not very long time 1t Will be
taken in by the Trust. This outcome was
predicted in this column several weeks ago.

The first one will be under Cap, tain w. R. Abercombe, Second United States infantry, with Second Lieu, tenant w. c.

Eastern Capital in Oregon.

Western Mining world: '.
 A good example of the readiness of eastern capital to take up good mn inc proposition when it is presented to them is evinCed by the experience of Fl. s. McCallum, who has just returned from the east, and according to the Baker City Republican, placing the stock of gold mining company, having a capital stock of 100000 shares, with Boston parties, the entire amount of stock being subscribed for, and none now for sale. The mines of Oregon, Mir. McCallum says, were almost un known there, but there is plenty of idle capital awaiting investment in good, legitimate mining propositions A fact which applies not only to Bos- ton, but to every part ot the east. Among western people, as perhaps Is natural from their closer proximity to the mines, mining investment has long been looked upon as legitimate buSl- ness; and rarely will you find great fortune here in the northwest, but mines or mining have been to some eX- tent an agent iu it's amassing. In the east. however, mining has been regarded largely as a speculation; and many ap- pear tO think therC is some sort of necromancy about it, which those un- derstanding can exercise to their bcne- fit. while the uninitiated labor under a disadvantage. Now that people are beginning to understand that mining properly conducted is as safe as the manufacture of shoes or fabrics, and a hundred fold more lucrative, it will not be so hard matter for the owners of good mineral claims to find the means necessary for developing their proper tinS

IN A QUANDARY.
Two Swede Homeseekers Who We're
After Information.

After Information.
Two SWedes. strangers, stood on she
corner of Park and Wyoming yester-
day, as the whistles were blowing eha
l o'clock hour. They could talk Just
enough English to make themselves I'M
derstood. They were in quardary and
didn't care who knew it, for nearly
every passer-by was hailed by the
spokesman of the team and asked:
Hoe fare at es to Boat?''
They received a motley aggregation
of answers, but they positively refused
to despair. 1t appears that they left
st. Paul last week with the big excur-
sion of Western homeseekers and
stopped off here just because they saw
many others do likewise
From their conversation and uucs-
'tions it was found that they were look
ing for Butte. One of them said tEat
he had cousin living in Butte some
where, and that his name was Sam An
derSon. He said tina, man told him
that this was Helena, and tAat he
would have to wait until the next ex-
Curslon from the East came along be-
fore he could get over to Butte as
trains left Helena but once a wear. He
was told by this same josher that If he
wanted to get to Butte he must walk,
and 1t was evident that this idea was
in mind when he inquired as to the
distance from here to Butte.
The couple, after listening to n series
of explanations as to the shortest Cut
to Butte started off towards Meader-
Vile. talking to each other in that
musical language which no one nearby
was able to understand
