The draymen of the city are quite
badly wrought zip over the determina-

the rule which requires license from
drays and transfer wagons hauling
stuff to the grounds. They have mis-
taken the rule to read that they will
be required to pay one dollar for each
load they deliver to the fairgrounds,
seeming not to understand that the
one dollar pays the fee for the whole
time of the fair and that they may en-.
ter and leave the grounds as often as
they desire.
When this matter was explained to
them, however, they raised the OBJ
lection that possibly they would Sc
cure only one load each to the grohnds

required to pay the dollar for enter

The track at the place where the dc

FOR RAISING CHECKS
David de Costa Adds Felony to
Former Crimes

OAKLAND, Aug. 13.-David de Costa,
q former convict was arrested at Sew
enth and Franklin streets last night
by Detectives Quigley and Drew and
has been booked on felony charge.
When searched at the city prison a
number of 81 bills were found on De
Costa, one of which had been cleverly
raised to $40. The swindler used the
method of cutting the desired denom-
ination from confederate bills and past
ing the numbers over the dollar stamps
on the good bills. This scheme re-
quired that six figures be changed on
each bill.
The police have suspected De Costa
for some time. but his operations have
been so ingeniously conducted that he
has heretofore eluded detection His
swfndles in Oakland will approximate
$500 during the last five weeks. He
recently served several years for forg-
cry.
