government officials here show that
within three years men and women in
various parts of the United States sent
checks and postoffice orders and cash
to the amount of $4,000, 900 to swind-
lers In this city. The government has
now four cases pending, in which it
will show that the amount sent here
in response to ''come-on letters was
equally great.
This brings the total to $4,000. 900
yearly sent by conf1ding investors in
the different states to this city for
which the government claims nothing

cases Of a similar nature are now
pending. with arrests likely any day
