TWO CONFIDENCE MEN WORK
SMOOTH GAME ON LOCAL
ATTORNEY.
Taken in by a Scheme That Looked
Good-C. M. RAIDER Is the
Victim.

| Wanted-By the sheriff's office, two
confidence men who succeeded in
| fleeing a law firm of 1920. A liberal
| reward will be paid for the promoters
of a most novel and successful scheme.
| The tale is a novel one, because it
has to do with confidence men and
: lawyers, and especially because the
| lawyer for once got the worst of the
bargain. Every other profession and
| calling mas been subject to the ravages
of the confidence man, save the legal
profession. Now comes the duo with
a scheme that looks good even to law
yers.
| A few days ago a man giving the
name of Thomas appeared at the Of
flee of RAIDER & King and left for col
lection a debt of 1925 said to be due
him from a John Murray of Waits
burg Thomas had sold a team of
horses to Murray for $500, receiving
SIS in cash, the remainder to be paid
after a weeks trial Of the horses. At
the end of the time Murray returned
| the horses claiming they were not as
represented. Thomas refused to ac-
| cept them and return the money,
claiming one had been foundered.
Then the services Of the follower of
Blackstone were sought and secured.
The lawyer wrote John Murray a
| letter straight from the shoulder, ad-
vising him to send the 1925 or trouble
would begin without loss Of time. In
reply a letter was received contain
ing a check on a Waitsburg bank for
1920, offering to compromise the mat
ter if the IS were allowed by Thomas.
The check was made payable to the
order of the lawyer, the offer was &C
cepted by Thomas and the two went
to the bank for the money. The law
yer endorsed the check, secured 1920,
paid himself 500 for making the set
Element and turned the 5000 over to
Thomas. On the train in the after
noon Thomas took passage for Pen
dleton or Portland, and it is presumed
| ne met Murray, who had found the
field at Waitsburg uninviting. The
check was shortly returned as no
good, and the lawyer was called upon
to make good his endorsement.
Sheriff Painter was appealed to and
| mas made every effort to locate the
culprits, but the description given is
indefinite and it is hardly possible
either of the confidence men will be
apprehended.
The two confidence men tried to
play the same game on the law firm of
Sharpstein & Sharpstein and it was
carried so far that Oscar Cain receiv-
ed letter, purporting to come from
man named Brown at Waitsburg, in
which he claimed that he had been
sued for two horses. and requesting
him to settle the matter with Sharp
stein & Sharpstein, who were the at
| torneys for the man from whom he
had purchased the horses. The check
| was made payable to Snarpstein
Sharpstein and was drawn on a Waits
burg bank. AS the Sharpsteins hap
| pened to be out of the city at the
time Cain was unable to make the Set
tlement and the next day it was dis
covered that the men were playing a
confidence game.
