"One Of the most conspicuous ex-

years ago the cigarette was an article

American manufacturers who ex-

Clever Genius, In Sheer Bravado,
Writes His Dupes, Telling
Hew He Did Il.

London.-SiE Robert Anderson, for
merly head of the criminal investiga-
ton department at Scotland Yard, In
his "reminiscences in Blackwood's
Magazine, tells the following story:
"A genius claimed to have discov-
cred the secret Of making gold, and
he offered to sell it to a great city
firm-a house whose name is In high
repute not only In England but in all
the capitals of Europe. BY means of
a process which he had discovered,
the bulk of any quantity of gold could
be increased by. one-half. at trifiing
expense.
His dupes accepted his terms, sub
ject to his giving proof of the value
OF his discovery, and to test 1t they
proposed to supply him with a hun
dred sovereigns and the needed plant

a petty sum as that; it would be

from the network of wires above the
plants. Under special conditions-as
where there is an excess of natural
electricity-it might be advisable to
use the negative, but alternating cur
rent would be of no use.
ITO sort out the positive and mega
tive currents from the transformer,
valves specially invented for the pur.
pose by Sir Oliver are used. Working
exactly like the valves in an ordinary
pump. they allow the current to flow
in one direction only, and prevent its
getting back; they thus store the cleo
tricity in the field network from which
1t 'f1zzes' on to the plants below.
This field network consists of fine
iron wire. the wires being spread about
ten yards apart and Is feet or so
above the ground. The wires are so
fine that it is difficult to see them
even when standing Immediately be-
low them.
THE action that the electrical dis
charge has on the plants, Sir Oliver
suggests. may be considered as arti-
fetal sunshine. and as In no way ia

tedious one.
Finally 1t was arranged that he
should have 100000 in sovereigns.
and house was taken in Leman
street, Whitechapel, and there q
laboratory was fitted up for his use.
The gold was placed in tanks pro-
vided for the purpose. the needed
chemicals were supplied, and the ex-
pertinent proceeded, with elaborate
precautions against larceny or fraud.
THE man was emphatic in insisting
on two points; no one but himself
was to enter the laboratory: and he
was to be vigorously searched every
time he passed out. After many
weeks. during which his visits were
frequent, he disappeared; and when
eventually the door was forced. the
tanks which had contained the gold
were empty, and the bottles which
contained the chemicals were full.
What had become of the 500, DOOR
The fullest inquiry only served to
elicit proof that the man had been
searched with exemplary care at every
visit.
THE mystery would have remained
forever unsolved II the criminal had
not himself supplied the solution of
it. In sheer bravado and pride in
his achievement. he wrote to the firm
he had swindled. telling them of his
appreciation of the money, and of
his confidence that they would rather
lose twice as much than incur ridicule
on every exchange In Europe by q
prosecution which would disclose their
folly. And then he revealed his meth
cd. Every time he left the laboratory
the gold-headed cane he carried was
packed with sovereigns."
