FRAUD MADE EASY.
Shifting Population Of a Large City
Brings New Victims.
v York Mail and Express.

New York Mail and Express
All sorts OF frauds are made possible in
n lis nonI.Isti"n There IS So little STABILITY
about New York hcbes that certain neigh
borhoods change each year. This is esre-
cially true where flats abound A small in
dustry like laundry can thus flourish year
after year at the same stend, although its
methods are utterly fraudulent The feel
ing exists in the minds of some that to re-
tain stand tradesman must be honest.
But Is Ii not just as practical to retain his
place of business and let the housekeepers
do the moving Thus he has constant
supply of fresh victims. A certain dlshon-
est laundry Aourishes on the upper West
Side, and will continue 70 flourish, secure
in tie feeling of protection afforded ny a
new set of customers when the ola ones
have become tired OF being cheated. An
other shield for the man who is petuly dis
honest is the aversion decent people nave
to publicity. A man may send half 8 dozen
new shirts TO the laundry and receive in
return four pinafores. OF course, mas Ieei-
ings are outraged, and ne storms aDou- IL,
but that is all-he has no wish 10 drag such
q case through the tedious process OF Sc
curing Justice by means or the law No,
his only satisfaction is IN removing ms
patronage from the fraudulent piace-srna,li
punishment TO the laundry which can rely
on more patronage from people just snoving
into the neighborhood.
Another style Of fraud, one with more
serious possibilities, is that conducted
through the original methods of dealer In
old gold and silver. This man evidently
plays upon the dishonesty or servants, and
offers every inducement for petty thievery.
And he too, depends upon the shifting ma
fure Of the population for his security, or
more particularly our habit of changing
servants frequently. In the early autumn,
when, IL is safe TO assert. every house
hold changes from one TO ten servants, he
makes his bids for trade. He leaves ct
each door a large card asking for watches,
scarf-pins, stones which may have fallen
out of jewelry, old gold or silver in any
form. The card reads that cash will be
paid at the door for these things and that
the agent will call next day for the card
and whatever goods are to be sold TO him.
Thus he furnishes a way for valuables TO
be taken from the house with no posi-
bility OF detection anywhere. His card also
states that all metals are at once melted
another help to the dishonest, for melted
gold and silver tell no tales of ownership.
