Kansas City by band of swindlers,
seven men and two women, who have
operated from various points in Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri.
The swindlers secured their first
money when man appeared here from
Iowa stating that he had a herd of ], 500
feeders in Iowa, but had not money
enough to get the cattle in shape for
the market The commission firm to
which he appealed for financial assist
ance sent man to Iowa, inspected the
herd and loaned the man $4,000, taking
a first mortgage.
A few days later a woman in Wild
ow's weeds appeared at the offices of
another commission firm and secured a
similar amount on similar representa-
tions. The herd of feeders was rapidly
moved through several counties in Kan
sas and finally into Missouri, and re-
peatedly mortgaged, and it is stated
that one commission firm was caught
twice on the same bunch of cattle The
