BROEERSBNDER ARREST
Charged With Using the United
States Mails to Defraud.
REALIZED OVER HALF AM1LLIoN

On an Alleged Bucket shopping"
Scheme - one o. Their Customers
Claims TO Have Lost 100000 on HIS
Deals with the Firm.
Chicago Nov. 16.-The federal au-
thorities yesterday took cognizance of
the reports which had been made con-
cerning the alleged fraudulent business
of the board of trade firm of McLain
Bros. e. Co.. and arrested Charles II.
and Albert o. McLain, members of the
firm. The charge was using the Uni
ted States mails to carry on scheme
TO defraud. The prisoners were taken
before United States Commissioners
Humphrey, where they waived exam
ination on the charge and were held
to the federal grand jury in bonds OF
$1,000 The bail was what is known as
a joint and several bond, the whole of
which will be forfeited If either or
both of the defendants fail to apepar
In court when called upon.
The two board of trade men are
said to have begun their operations
with customers in various parts of the
country two years ago, and 1t is claim
ed they realized over S500,000 through
their bucket shopping" schemes. They
will not appear In court again until
next spring, and not then unless the
federal grand jury finds true bills on
the charges.
The firm OF McLaln Bros. & Co. has
ceased all operations on the market
having transferred its trade The
case, which will be presented before
the next grand jury, is said to show
most fragrant violations of the board
of trade rules, as we'll as offenses
against the postal laws. The firms
business consisted principally of deals
for country customers. The members
Of the firm are said to have matched"
buying or selling orders from GUS
toners with the reverse trade on its
own account, and the work is said
to have been carried on so quietly that
many customers lost money on the fic-
titious sales.
The evidence I'm the case is in the
custody of the postoffice inspectors and
is made up of bundle of several hun
dred letters written by the defendants
to their customers The warrants for
the arrest of the McLain brothers was
based on the alleged swindle of P. A.
Hyke, of Luverne, Mimi, who claims
to have lost about $4,000 on his deals
with the board of trade firm.
The evidence in possession of the
postal officials consists of letters which
contain memoranda of transactions
made for customers and show that
while an effort was made to keep
within the letter of the board rules, a
conspiracy existed among certain local
firms to violate them. 1t is said these
deals, which were made by the Nc
Lain brothers for customers in the
west, were "bucket shopped," and
never reached the grain pit
