The three men engaged in a gambling
game, matching pennies, then quarters,
and then dollars, and Sears was the
apparent winner Of several thousand
dollars. although no money exchanged
hands Marshall, who was loser. de-
manded that Sears and Harrison pro-
duce the amount he had lost in order
to prove to him that they could have
paid him had he won. This was agreed
to, and the trio went to Frederick,
where Sears had money in the bank,
but the banker became suspicious and
the two confidence men were arrested

As an example Of the excessive prices

case of the transport Burnside, opera

Philippines. On one occasion 1t was
necessary to coal the Burnside under
an emergency without asking bids. In
open market coal was purchased al
