 Mir. Rogers Is the first of the finan- ciers to be rounded up in four days.
 To M. E. Palmido, one of the most resourceful of professional process servers in New York, was intrusted the task of serving the order of the court on MT, Rogers. After repeated attempts to find him at his office he went to Rogers residence.
 He rang the doorbell and gave his professional card to the butler, who after awhile reported that Mir. Rogers had left the house i've minutes before Palmido called.
 Palmido left the house, but he waited down the block a little way, and he soon saws Mir. Rogers appear onG the steps, with a stout, heavy set man walking beside him. At the same mo- ment an automobile drove hurriedly up and halted in front of the house. The process server hurried up and met MT. Rogers and his escort.
 Isn't this MT. Rogersr he asked pleasantly.
 Not a sound from Mir. Rogers. The heavy man got between Mir. Palmido and Mir. Rogers, the door of the car riage was quickly opened, and MT. Rog- CTS got in, the big guard closing the door. quickly behind him.
 Palmido saw that window in the cab was open, and through it he tossed the order of subpoena. It landed on MT. Rogers lap. and in order that all might be complete Palmido threw S2.50 into the financier's carriage. As he did so he called Mir. Rogers attention to the original signature of Judge Fitzger- aid on the subpoena. Mir. Rogers seem ed to comprehend. but never a word did he say as the automobile whirled him far away.
