They Play the Fake Game in the Same Old Way

r HE old "pocketbook" trick is being

that a clever pair Of negro men are

worked on Emma Davis, a negro wom-

the other afternoon, and on another
negro woman a week before.
Emma reported to the police of the
Grst precinct that about $3.50 o'clock
in the afternoon two we'll dressed ne
gro men who we're walking just in
front of her, near the corner of Tenth
street and Pennsylvania avenue north
west, suddenly stopped down and

Making sure that Emma was in a
position where she could see what
was going on, they opened the find
and disclosed to Emma's wondering
gaze a quantity of bills of large de-
nominations. Then the men became
confidential, Emma told the police,
and took her into their secret. They
had Just found the pocketbook, they
told her, and it contained 800. Now,
as she had seen them find it, she was
entitled to a third of it, and they were

100000 in real money since May. 1912,
Miss Louise Lester of the treasury de-

it is messy" one. andshopes to keep
at it for some time to come.
Miss Lester is a member OF the COM

committee are Messrs. U. L. Adams,
chairman; ]. N. Fite and William M.
Meredith.
Every day shortly after nine o'clock
in the morning big automobile truck
backs up to the treasury and takes
aboard six or eight trunks. Every one
of the trunks contain half million or
more of dollars in real money, the
bills being cut in halves.

full portion of the treasure trove.
Then difficulty arose, Emma said,
when the men found that they could
not divide the money in three equal
parts without more money to put with
1t.
When Emma was asked il she had
any money she trustinglyi gave the
men 81, she said. Even with this
amount it was impossible to split the
money correctly. the men told her,
and directed her to wait moment
while they went over to lunchroom
to get some more change.
Emma waited for about 20 minutes.
Then she stepped across the street to
the station house and told the police
what had occurred. A lookout was
sent out for the men. whose descr0p
lions were given.

Accompanying the truck is a car
riage from the bureau of engraving
and printing Into this climb Mr..
Adams and Miss Lester. At least two
members of the committee must keep
the money in sight at all times.
Upon arriving at the bureau the
trunks full of money are taken to the
macerating machines. The mutilated
money is dumped by Miss Lester and
other members Of the committee into
four large iron tunnels, which convey
it into the macerating machines be-
low The latter are huge revolving
cylinders lined with angle parts which
tear the bills to pieces.
With the completion of the feeding
process bucketfuls of soda ash and
unslaked lime are poured in. This
takes the color out Then the ma
chimes are set in motion and grind
away for twenty-four hours. The gray
pulp matter then goes into another ma
chine and is made into sheets. Most
of the pulp is converted into paste

the pulp.
