RAID TURF TIPPERS'
CHICAGO "lNVES COM
PANlES IN THE TOLLS.
PATRONS ARE CLAMORING
Investors of Money in Concerns Being
Matters to Head by Complaining
to Police and Proprietors of Places
are Arrested by etectives-More
Raids to Follow.

Chicago, Feb. 14.-Three turf in
vpstment companies offices were
raided yesterday afternoon by detect
ives and a number OF attaches arrest
ed The head of fourth concern,
warned of the proposed movement,
escaped before the detectives arrived
The firms visited by the police were
the H. BrOlasli company, Benedict &
Company, the Mid-Continent Invest
ment company and A. j. Demorest,
& Company. When the detectives
reported at the DemOrest place the
president of the company, A. J. Dem
crest, could not be found and there
were a number Of patrons in front of
the locked doors, clamoring for pay
ment.
The raids followed a general police
order to close all the alleged fraudu-
lent turf exchanges in Chicago. The
first place visited was Bralaski & com
panys, where BrOlaski and five others
were taken in charge. In the Office at
the time were two women who said
they had made investments but were
unable to get thir money back when
they called for it. George H. Vincent
OF Davenport, Iowa, also appeared at
BrOlaskl's Office while the raid was in
progress and declared he had lost ST.
100. He said he had invested money
on the promise of big gains, but had
not received a cent in dividends. Dur
ing the raid at Benedicts number
of men called to ask that the money
they had entrusted with the company
be returned to them. One said he had
81 900 invested but was unable to get
it. Collectors for the American EX-
press company and Continental Ma
tional bank also called. Each had
claims for several thousand dollars.
At the Mid-continent Investment
company, the stenographer, a woman
was taken into custody but the man
ager could not b found. Desks were
broken open and certificates of stock,
proprietorship and lists of investors
were taken in charge.
Just how much Demorest took away
when the left the office yesterday is
not known, but the place was beseiged
by patrons in the afternoon.
The heads of the Benedict and Bro
lasli concerns were booked on state
charges of conducting a book making
business, and the city charges running
gambling enterprises. Harry Brolas
XII and Henry Thompson Of the Bro
lash comapny, and NJ. J. Beck, w. J.
Mason and Matty Woodsin, the latter
a. woman, were released on bonds of
$500 in each case.
There are numerous other turf in

and further raids will probably be
made today.
Circulars seized in the offices raid

ingenious new schemes. Letters
from men, women and boys in near

In the meantime the moment had come
when he must boldly invite the con
fidence Of DR.. Peele. He generally
saw the doctor twice a day; for half
al hour in the morning, before he
started to visit the patients, and for
an hour in the evening, after dinner
when the days work was done. 1t
was with a loudly-beating heart and a
sense that he was On the threshold Of g
chamber Of mysteries that the yOnug
man, at half-past seven that evening,
knocked as usual at the door Of the old
doctors room. He felt little doubt
but that the discoveries he had made.

that nothing more would be needed
to induce him to assert his authority.
and insist upon CTOsmOnts sending his
wife away for a time at least, so that
her mind might recover a healthy

secret of The Crags;. so that when, in
answer to the doctors Come in," he
entered the room and closed the door,
the young man was so deeply Cypress

uncertainty, that he felt as if he him

stern and unbending judge.
