fore and which promise to be brought
to a successful climax under the euid
ance of Frank B. Kellogg, the greatest
trust buster of them all.
Mr.. Finch refuses to state the exact
size of his force. He is the only man
who knows the personnel of it. Not
even the men themselves know the asso-
ciates. Each has an individual code
for sending messages. They mingle
with the Scotland yards men in England
and those sleuths are unaware of it.
They know the precious gems that are
every dav bought in Paris and whether
they are declared when the purchaser
returns to this country. They know
where Cinnamon are rendezvousing with
the idea of being smuggled into this
country. They know the army officer
who is living beyond his income. They
know the representative of the wiley
Japanese who is attempting to gain the
secrets of our naval construction. They
know many of the strange things 'twixt
heaven and earth that have puzzled
others than the melancholy Dane.
Yet they are young In the business
and the perfecting of the force has but

Making a New Secret Service

sorts of outrages were being committed
in Kentucky because of the attempt of
the growers to control the marketing of
the crop. Where a farmer refused to
sell through them his barn was burned
his house shot up, often his wife aud
children killed. So strong was the To-
cal sentiment in favor of this procedure
that the local courts were ineffective.
1t required n greater outside force to
put an end to these practices.
The Department Of Justice agents
went into Kentucky They investigated
the iuwlcsness. Unless it had directly
to do with Interstate business the fed
eral government had no right to inter

There is today as part of the fed
eral government n new Secret service
which is larger, richer, more powerful
because of the latitude it is given, than
has been any other such organization
that the nation has so far known. Its
duties take its agents to all points in
the world. 1t is authorized TO act for
every branch of the government and to
handle all manner OF cases of violation
OF the federal statutes. 1t is a baby
service that has come into being in
the last two years, yet in employs more
secret agents, spends more money, per
forms a greater variety of service than
has any other such body of men since
time began.
This new Secret service is in the De-
partment of Justice. Its province is to
gather evidence in all Kramer of cases
that this department represents before
the courts. Antitrust prosecutions,
violations of the national banking laws.

sleutb grasped the point that this to

and that in interfering with it's ship

Next to the lawyer the newspaper

] the new Secret Service This man ha:
been trained to go in and got the facts
| Chief Finch SAYS that the best trait OF
these literary sleuths is that they never
know when TO quit. Yet the whole ~~
gregation is not high brow. There arc
a score OF old gun men of the west IN
the new service. These arc the best
men with the six shooter that could be
called from the ninety millions. Three
of them were on the night riding expe-
dition in Kentucky. Had the worst
come to the worst there would have
been tone of the best exhibitions OF
fancy shooting on that trip the country
has ever known. The Kentucky Noun
taineer is a good man with n gun, but
those are the selected quick shooters of
them all One of them is a quiet old
rural from Idaho who can get his gun
and ring six bells on target while the
average man is preparing for the first
shot Then there is the place for the
in the police department and the
''hist! hist - theaters, There are spe-
cial cases where he fits IN and he is kept
in reserve for those.
There are certain characteristics
that must be common to all these men.
A secret service man must always be
inconspicuous. There are none of the
handsome, fine and strapping sort of
men in this work The secret agent
must always remain unknown, must be
lost in the crowd, must not attract at
tention. He should be the sort of a
man from whom a street car conduc-
tor fails to collect fares. There is not
4 red headed man on the force. None
Of them have scars, none of them pc
culiarities Of appearance. If you met
one of them twenty times on the street
YOU would not realize that you had met
him before. They must be quiet, unob
truslve, self obliterating. 1t is better
that they should be undersiZed, medium
complexion, clean shaven. But with
this unobtrusiveness there must be clev-
erness. Without seeming to observe the
detective must see all Without seem.
ing so he must be bulldog for tenacity
and forceful in emergency.
For the maintenance OF this force
congress last year appropriated S4S5,000
for the. 'tprotection, prevention and
prosecution of crime For the ode
lection, prevention and prosecution of
infringements of the antitrust law'' an
additional 100000 is appropriated.
Such sums of money as this were never

Already the new service is getting re-
