VICTIMS OF SWINDLERS.
Doctors and Dentists Preycd Upon
hN Clever Rogucs

NEW YORK. March 27.-Several den
lists and physicians have met with stern
rebuffs when they have presented racing
tickets TO boOkmakers during the last few
days. They have tried TO collect money
and have been received with a grin and
the comment "Ah. they've caught another
sucker" In deep humiliation the profes-
sional men have retired TO mediate upon
the dark ways and vain tricks of the
bunco steerer.
Il escaped" remarked DR.. Rudolph
Gudewell, of l02 East Sixty-second Street.
but | never bet. The men who go about
are very plausible, and the newspapers
should give public warning about the work
they are doing Several Of my friends have
suffered and ! hear that there have been
very many others on the list.
1t is very easy when it is explained. and
the victims themselves wonder afterward
that they should not have suspected the
trap.
Two men call on the doctor They are
"horsey," fashy fellows, with the scent of
the stable in their manners. They say
they have come at the suggestion of Mr..
So-and- So, a patient-that is, provided
they have been able to get this informa-
tion.
They have heard that the doctor stands
at the head of his profession and they
wish him TO treat jockey a youth with
an income of s25,OO0 or 100000 whose en-
ployer wishes 10 pay for whatever may be
found necessary.
If the intended victim be a dentist the
jockey has bad, irregular teeth; if the call
be made upon physician. The Jockey has
whatever ailment that peculiar medical
man makes speciality of. s+s
In one respect the stories agree: Money
is no object. We want the best, and We
are willing TO pay the best prices
Appointments are made for the jockey to
call on the following day. and the visitors
prepare to leave. Then il impresses one
Of them that Doc should be let in on
good thing" Wingedheel is 10 take all
the cash on the track. Ii is finding money
10 put bet on him The odds against him
were enormous at the opening but have
been beaten down since then. They have
made heavy plunges on the horse to win,
and they have little side bet for place at
20 10 Just ten dollars worth-which
Doc may take by paying what ii cost
them.
This yarn is told with infinite variations.
Sometimes the horse had already won when
they left the ticker and they were on their
way TO collect the bet but they are willing
10 give the doctor bonus; they happen TO
need s. or $40 to go uptown, or they would
take nothing. And so il goes.
The purchasers of the good things have
received tickets marked Chicago Racing
Association" with large green figures
bearing the name Of Clohesey & Co. Upon
these were written in heavy black pencil
the name of a horse and the amount of the
supposed bet. 1t is scarcely necessary TO
add that the only value of these cards is as
souvenirs or as possible exhibits to GRIM
inal court in the event Of the capture of
the swindlers.

BELAIR, Nd, March 27.-Miss Annie

street to big tree in front of Dr. Acher' s
residence. There. after Lewis had con-
fessed his crime in the hearing of his vic

and riddIed his body with bullets.
Miss McIlyaine. with her arms crossed,
stood on the curb in the rain, and watched
with relentless eyes the struggles of the
wretched negro as the men hauled him up
to the limb of the tree that served as
galows. When the Jail was attacked, sew

made up of men from Churchville and
Aberdeen, both places within riding dis

1t was nearly II O'Clock when the men
assembled about the Court House d.
rectly opposite is the sheriff's residence

The only response was a shot. followed
by another and another. The bullets pen
etrated the panels of the bolted door and
crashed through the glass lights on either
side of the barricade. Sheriff Rhinehart
reached for his revolver and returned the
shots also firing through the door.

from the house TO the Jail. The prisoner

charge of selling rice whisky without
license.
At the conclusion of the testimony for
the prosecution Judge Dennis adjourned

Judge Harry Lee Griffith. whose death was
announced. The testimony for the defence
will be heard today. The defence will be
that Wong Su Hong fired to protect him
self.
All the Chinese witnesses were sworn
to tell the truth by raising the right hand,
as prescribed by the Maryland statute
One of the witnesses, who was being ques-
toned TO ascertain if he considered the
oath binding, said the name Of his God is
Wong Tong. When he was asked if his
God is not an idol the State objected to
the question. and the court sustained the
objection. The witness was then asked
what would happen to him if he swore to
lie, and he replied that Heaven would
punish him.

CHINAMEN IN COURT.
An Assault Which Followed an ORR
entail Election.

BALTIMORE, March 27.-The Chinese
colony in Baltimore was well represented
in Part of the Criminal Court yesterday
during the trial of Wong Su Hong on the
charge of assaulting Der Ying with intent
to murder. All grades of Cinnamon were
there, from one who clings to the queue
and Chinese style of dress to the one who
wears his hair cut short and sports Amer
lean clothes.
Wong Su Hong keeps laundry under
the name of Quong Chong Hi. He and his
alleged victim still wear queues and dress
in Oriental style. The evidence showed
that Wong Su Hong had been president of
a laundrymen's association, which held
meeting on the night of December 81 last
for the purpose of deposng him. The
meeting was held in room in the Chinese
restaurant of Gee OFT, ON Fayette Street,
near Park Avenue, where Der Ying was
employed.
Wong Su Hong became very angry when
he was deposed as presidents of the associ-
alton. He left the room, and as he went
down the stairway he passed Der Ying,
who had just gotten drink of tea at tea
stand. Wong Su Hong and Der Y1ng had
quarreled previously, but nothing was said
by either as Wong Su Hong passed. After
descending few steps more Wong Su
Hong drew a revolver and fired, hitting
Der Ying in the arm. Only one shot was
fred, but this was because Wong Su Hong
could not make the weapon explode again.
The Cinnamon in the house rushed out aft
ter Wong Su Hong and he was arrested on
Marion Street, with the pistol in his hand.
Wong Su Hong. it is said, has his fellow
countrymen in this city terrorized. So
great is their fear of him that they asked
for police protection at a meeting held
prior to the one at which the shooting oc-
