Featured by Lack of
Plausibleness.

Louisville. Ky. February 23.--In-
dictment OF q clatrvoyant here to-day,
on the charge of swindling two wo-
men out OF $4,000 revealed series of
incidents By which women arc alleged
TO have lost various sums which the
police believe will total $4,000 by Il
system featured by it's lack of
plausibleness, Promise of health and
wealth are the lure.
Uriel Buchanan. the clairvoyant, and
his manager. Jack Graham. also in
dicted, are thought to have left the
city last Saturday or Monday before
the exposure came. Following the an
nouncement of the indictments to-day
information reached the police OF the
disappearance OF woman clairvoyant
through complaints OF two women that
they had been swindled by her to the
extent of 1910.
Buchanan. 1t Is said, had many
methods, principal of which was his in
struction to a woman TO put all her
money into a channels bag and hang
1t around her neck. He promised

all ills.

attracted from the first by his instruc-
lions. She said. For five weeks /

she drew from the bank $4,000 which
she and her husband saved and did az
directed. She went to Buchunan's
place three times a week, and each
time he would remove the chamois
bag, mysteriously pass his hands over
IT and place IT around her neck again
Several times on reaching home she
pecred into the bag and saw the
money still there Last Saturday, she
says, buchanan removed the bag and
performed his lamentations, but stood
behind her when he replaced it around
her neck. When she reached home
she again looked into the bag ana saw
