Mining Company, was a moro igurehead
and tool of Goslin. Uhren, who was
being sued by Dunn through Turner. was
at the very time occupying Offices with
Goslin and Dunn. Whiteman, who was
being sued by Dunn, aided in the prepare
ton Of the papers, and all the letters pur-
porting to come from Bernard Uhren were
dictated by Goslin.
ROUND UP OF THE GAME.
When these facts became known to Leroy
Ball he laid the matter before Assistant
District Attorney Lockwood, who for some
time had been collecting evidence agar st
Goslin. When tho investigation began
it was not even known who the parties
wore, but after weeks OF work everything
| has been traced to the master hand Of Cos
lin, who Is q now a fugitive, as are also
Uhrep, Whiteman aud Turner.
Dunn, whom Goslin took in hand when he
was only a boy, Is in the Tombs for ste aling
! the Steel stock certificate already men
toned. He Ia also held on a charge Of
oonspiring falsely to institute the action
which was begun in the Supreme Court
against the Western Gold Mining Company
and also under q perjury charge.
Christopher Cosmides, who has been
Goslin's intimate associate for years, has
been held by the Magistrate to await the
action of the Grand Jury on a charge Of
receiving the certificate which Dunn stole.
Thus the band which has been committing
crimes for years with almost what might
be called immunity has been broken up
Goslin's ~favorite alias was Matthews,
but he has also assumed the names Of A,
Griffin and OF Spencer. For some time he
occupied an Office in the building at 1872
Nassau street.
The only way to reach him by telephone
was to call up the Office of his attorneys,
Lippman d Ruck, and ask to speak to
sMr. Matthew'S" Then, through the office
of Lippman 4 Ruck, the person wishing to
spe ak to "Mr. Matthews" would be con-
nected with Goslin. Mr.. %Iippman's stem
oprapher has been Goslin's stenographer.
COURT STOLEN.
Whenever Goslin has been in trouble
important. papers tending to inorimiDate
him had a trick Of disappearing. In the
American Finance and Mortgage Company
hearing, by which it was sought to force
Goslin into bankruptcy. important papers
were stolen from the Referees Office.
About six months ago Iapers were stolen
from the clerk of the Municipal Court in
Brooklyn in the case Of a hard working
builder raned Schwartz, who lad been
introduced to Goslin, at that time posing
as Matthews, attorney for Bernard Uhren.
Goslin told Schwartz that Uhren wanted a
garage erected upon his property in Brook
Iyn. He saidthat Uhren was q very wealthy
man aud that he was willing to pay $1,000
more than the job was worth. '
Schwartz was to give a man named Whit
ney about $500 for getting the contract.
Whitney was a tool Of Goslin and was, Of
course, to turn over the 800 commission
to his boss.
After Schwartz had spent about 81 500
in erecting a garage he found that on the
day the contract was signed a mortgage
executed by Uhren to Anra Irene Mayher
for practically the value Of the and lad been
placed on record. Thus Schwartz was
unable to get any Fay for the work he had
performed.
He had received a bond purporting to'be
race by the Empire Bond and Securities
Comrany of d William street. 1t was
found. that the hond was worthless.
Schwartz was swindled out d 81 800, which
almost tankrupted him.
Goslin began a suit in the name Of Whitney
to recover the commission from Schwartz.
Dunn, the tool Of Goslin, nade an affidavit
that he Rad served thesummons In the case
on Schwartz. The District Attorney was
informed that Dunn had committed per-
jury and ttat Goslin. who had procured
Dunn to n AXE this false affidavit, had COM
mitted subopation Of perjury.
Assistant District Attorney Lockwood had
taken a number Of afidavits which tended
to show that Goslin lad committed the
crime Of suborpaton Of perjury. Goslin
became much frightened and procured a
a to 60 to the court clerks office in
Brooklyn, under the pretencs Of examining
the papers, and when he rad the raners
in his DO session he deliberately took them
