ADMITS HIS CLIENT GRATED
Pappas' Clever Manipulating
Scheme Exposed and AcAnowl-
edged in Police Court.

The case of the city against Thomas
Pappas. an italian charged with vlo-
lating the license ordinance, when IL
came up for hearing before Judge Diehl
yesterday afternoon, developed the
strange situation of the attorney for
the defendant admitting that his client
had worked smooth. grating game.
Pappas is in the employ of the Utah
Light & Railway company as an inter
prefer among the line gangs. The tes-
timony introduced against him showed
that for the consideration OF sums
varying from IS to $40 he would pro-
vide work for his fellow countrymen.
After working a month or two more
money had to be produced or the man
lost his Job.
The city attempted TO establish that
in his actions I'm this respect Pappas
came. within the provision of the or
dinance licensing employment agencies,
the violation of which means a 800 fine.
Pappas' attorney entered motion for
a non-suit, basing his argument on the
fact that while his client had undoubt-
edly worked a grating game, yt> he
could not be considered as engaged in
the business specified under the terms
of the ordinance.
The case was continued until Satur-
day morning. and today the attorneys
will present authorities 10 Judge Diehl
in support of their contentious regard
ing the motion for dismissal of the case.

CONFIDENCE MEN REVIVE
OLD SPANISH SWlNDLE

H. S. Young, cashier of the Deseret
National bank, has received commu-
nicafon from tho firm of knauth, Ma
chod & Kuhne of New York informing
him of the revival Of an old swindle
game which has been worked many
times, known as the Spanish swindle."
The game has been exposed great
number of times by the daily papers
throughout the country, but the swim
dlerS nevertheless repeatedly have sue
ceeded in securing victims and defraud-
ing them out of large sums of money.
A great number of the frauds have re-
Gently been brought to light. and it is
for the purpose Of warning the people
that the letter was sent to Mr. Young.
The scheme worked by the swindlers
is as follows: The victim receives a let

alleging that a distant relative. bear
ing the same name as the victim. OF
course, is heir 10 a valuable estate in
Spain, but is minor and must have a
guardian. The letter is cleverly con-
structed and tells an appealing story.
The victim in most cases at once be-
comes interested in the matter and en-
ters into correspondence with the par
ties having the case in charge. The
victim then receives letter saying that
a certain amount of money is necessary
to defray legal expenses and the child's
travelling expenses to this country. This
is the last heard from the attorneys"
should the victim send the money
asked for.
II is the desire of the New York firm
to have any one receiving such cor
respondence notify them Immediately,
as it will assist in the capture of the
swindlers.

Outlook for Copper.
Discussing the outlook for copper, on
which he is a recognized authority, the
senator said he looked for steady mar
ket with probable rise to about 10
cents, although he does not expect any
sharp advance in the price of metal,
and thinks it would be a misfortune for
ii 10 go to any extreme figure AT Is
or 16 cents,' he continued domestic
consumption can be depended upon for
a steady demand and our foreign mar
ket, which is good now. will hold good.
The European supply in sight is less
than 1O0.0OO.OO0 pounds. not more than
months supply. but the home con-
sumption is not much more than 40 per
cent of normal, while the present pro-
duction is about so per cent of the nor
NAL, taking 1907 as a basis. American
dealers have no large surplus in hand,
and as business conditions improve
they viii be in the market for larger
purchases. We are not likely to repeat
the blunder of 1907 and have copper 90
to abnormally high figures, with a GER
tainly that reaction would set in and
demoralize the copper business, but 1
look for a good steady market around
Is cents, and the producers can make
money at that
Senator Clark said he had noticed
the evidences of solid prosperity in Salt
Lake. as shown by it's remarkable
building movement and the appearance
of activity in the stores and on the
streets. II believe he said, with en-
phasis. that Salt Lake is going ahead
faster right now than any other city in
the west. There is good reason for it,
too 1t has a magnificent natural loca-
ton for a city. it commands a great
commercial territory, it has become one
of the important railroad centers of the
country, and it has nearby a most I'M
usual combination of agricultural. hor-
ucultural and mining resources, togeth-
er with livestock interests that are
bound to make its prosperity perna-
nent. I have always had great conf
dence in the city, and am more firmly
convinced now than ever that it is de-
stined to be one of the great centers of
the west"
After comforting with the officials of
the Salt Lake Route here, and with
others associated with him in business
affairs. the senator will leave for Butte
today.
