CROOKED BOOK AGENTS.
Cheap Volumes With Cheap China
ware Tempt Unwary.
MARSHAL McMILlIN ADVISED.

City Marshal McMillin has been
warned to look out for a gang of book
agents which has been operating all
over the middle west and which the
police authorities of other cities de-
clare is promoting a swindling scheme.
One of the leaders was arrested and in
dicted at Pittsburg on charge of con-
spiracy to defraud. Other cities
which have been visited are
Kansas City, st. Louis, Cincin-
natl, Dayton, Erie, Wheeling and
various Pennsylvania towns. The
same scheme is now being worked in
Denver, and City Marshal McMillin has
reason to belive the gang is coming
this way.
The plan is to send from four to
eight agents into a town to canN ass
for standard books in cheap bindin gs,
sold in sets of eighteen volumes. The
books are worth about cents each,
but the agents sell them at so cents a
copy, with a guarantee to give pre-
MUM of valuable jewelry or set OF
china when the last volume is deliv-
cred One volume is delivered each
week.
The bunco comes in at the latter end
of the eighteen weeks term. The
books are delivered regularly and the
so cents collected each week until six
teen or seventeen volumes are deliv.
cred and paid for. The collector never
comes around with the last one, and
after paying out $S or 50 for 80 cents
worth of books the purchaser gets a
chance to claim the premium.
One feature of the story is that Gov
ernor Leslie NJ. Shaw, of Iowa, now
secretary of the treasury of the United
States, was one of the subscribers. But
| in his case, in order to use his name
| the whole set and the premium We're
delivered. A few other cases are or
record where the contract was OBJ
served.
The Denver Post, in commenting or
the appearance of the gang in thai
city, says:
Captain Leyden of the detectives
has knowledge that the gang is oper
ating in Denver, but he has been ad
vised by the district attorney that h'
cannot proceed against the men in thi
city unless there is complaint by some
| body who has been victimiZed
"One of the agents of the concern il

captured by the detectives a few week
