section and is picking up considerable
loose cash.
He came here and introduced himself
as the man who makes all the prelimi-a
nary arrangements for the show. He
LEASED the grounds, made arrangements
for the license from the city, made con-
tracts for meat, hay, grain. etc, and
probably picked up couple of hundred
dollars. His scheme was this. For in
stance, he would go to a meat dealer
and make a contract for, say, 1000
pounds of meat at 10 cents g pound. He
would then say, Vow here isa chance
for a little rake off, 1 will put the price
Of meat in this contract at II cents a
pound, which will make SO additional.
/ You give me 50 and you Will receive the
other SIS, or in other words, 10ls cents

and other proof that he had authority
Ito make such contracts and but few
would suspect anything wrong. 1n-s
