CHICAGO, Oct. 13-Since the arrest
of DR.. Unger, Detective Smiley and F.
Wayland Brown, in the alleged insur-
ance swindle connected with the mys-
FERROUS death of Miss Marie Defenbach,
the bottom has fallen out of every story
Of wholesale swindles, and 1t is now be-
Ieved by many persons that Brown and
Smiley are inmates OF the county jail
for the purpose of trying to get state
ments from Dr. Unger. Attorney Maher,
representing the Mooney & Boland de-
tective agency, continues to tell re-
porters that he has evidence of a tgi-
gantic' swindle, and that forty per-
sons are involved. He also states that
other arrests may be made at any
moment. First a prominent lawyer
was named as being concerned. Now a
private detective issaid to be under sus-
picion. The fact that no additional ar
rests have been made, and the circum-
stances surrounding the Incarceration of
Brown and Smiley, lend color to the
statement that they are acting as ''stool-
pigeCnS."
