Mr.. Whitney Tucker Of this city was
made aware yesterday that some one was
trying to get some of his money by forg-
cry. Mr.. Tucker sent several drafts to
his wife, who is visiting in Boston. Some
time ago ana soon after sent her several
letters. None OF which. she received.
Mrs. Tucker not hearing from home for
some time, wrote and inquired why they
had not written her. Mr.. Tucker thought
It strange that his wife had not received
the different letters ne had written. So
he addressed the next letter to friend
IN Boston, who lived in a different por-
ton of the city. This letter Mrs. Tucker
received. Not long after these letters had
been missed by Mrs. Tucker, the Chase
National bank of New York received sew
eral drafts from Boston made out to Mrs.
Tucker and endorsed on the back with APP
parently her signature, with instructions
to the bank TO cash the drafts and keep
3 per cent for the trouble; the instructions
furthermore stated that the bank should
not send the money by registered letter
nor special delivery. but as every day
hrst-class mall. These instructions made
the bank people suspicious and they at
once wired the Fourth National bank Of
this city. Mr.. Tucker was at once notified
and It was soon discovered that the en-
dorsenents were nothing but plain for
geries. The postofice officials were put
onthe track and with the assistance OF
the Boston police have so far discovered
that the people livinz in suite OF the
same building in which Mrs. Tucker oc-
cupied suit 5. had received the letters
and had tried to get the money on the
drafts.
The thieves must have discovered that
they had been found out, for when the
officers called at their rooms. the occu-
