Rockefeller left Ohio the oil king roll

Dope in Chop suey Good for Trade

NEW YORK, Feb. ia lot of new
patrons began to visit the Tuxedo res
turant, men and women better dressed
and apparently better off than the
usual run, and the detectives on the
cleanup" squad sat up and took
notice After a visit or two, they
decided the change in patronage was
not due to change for the better in
the Oriental food, so they watched
more closely. Chop suey to take
home seemed to be frequent request,
accompanied by small pail or bowl.
They followed one man, who, hasten
ing tripped and dropped the can. The
detectives picked it up and emptying
it, discovered the rice was only top
covering, and underneath it was a sub
stance which they felt sure was opium.
They returned to the restaurant, and
while there a modishly gowned wom-
an. who had ridden in a taxi, entered
and some chop suey to take home
The Chinaman motioned her into a
side room. and when the detectives
broke in a few minutes later they TOOK
from her the bowl of rice which had
been handed her, and turning It up
side down discovered over 300 lychee
nuts, which had been cut and filled
with the same brown substance the
pail had contained Chin Kee and the
woman were arrested, and the place
searched About $1,000 worth of opium
was found and confiscated.

The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-10-14

The city of Chicago is supposed
to get 55 per cent of the profits of the
street railway companies. Whether
the city gets fair split or is double
crossed depends a good deal on the
kind of bookkeeping the street rail-
way companies have.
Through these facts there is pub
lie interest in a report mailed this
week to stockholders of the Assets
Realization Co., capitalized at $1O,-
100000. The president of this COM
pany is Ira M. CObe. chairman board
of directors of the Chicago City Rail
ways Co., and a director on elevated
road and several interurban lines.
Cobe is one of the six men named by
Montague Ferry, commissioner of
public service, as the six men who
control the public utilities of Chi
cagO.
The report is signed by G. M. P.
Murphy, an expert accountant, who
went over books of the Assets Real
ization Co. for a group of New York
bankers and a creditors committee.
On this committee are Albert H. Wig
gin, president of the Chase National
Bank; Samuel McRoberts, vice presi-
dent of the National City Bank, and
Benjamin B. Guinness.
Cobe's company was organized to
buy up bankrupt concerns having
good prospects, but temporarily short
of cash. Murphy's report shows that
properties were put on the books of
the company and listed as assets at
prices far above what was paid for
them. No stOckhOlder could get any
idea of what the company was worth
or where it stood.
Loans of cash were made to per-
sons on poor security or none, &C
cording to Murphy's report.
There are so many crooks and
twists in the bookkeeping and so
much jugglery that Murphy says:
;,,,DooriJ,1o ~ q
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-10-14

80 last were generally far out Of line
with the real values.
'All assets when acquired were
placed on the books, not at cost, but
at realizable values Profits we're
generally determined when property
was acquired instead of when it was
sold and were based not upon facts,
but upon expectations"
The report then goes on to show
that last November debts overdue
and coming due in 80 days amounted
to So, 455, 734, while the valuable cash
was less than 100000. Concerns
in which the company's interests has
been estimated at 100000 were
approaching insolvency."
Running the busted concerns
bought by Cobe and his associates
cost more than the income they
brought in. So Murphys warning to
the creditors is that the longer the
company runs the less there will be
for the creditors, the deficit being
about 100000 a year.
Murphy shoots holes into the Bit
ter Root Valley Irrigation Co. and the
S., 418, 900 valuation it is given on
the books. Mortgage payments past
due run over 100000, and out of
286 mortgages outstanding 211 are
in default, and out of 252 outstanding
contracts 115 are in default.
One A. L. ODER was loaned $4,000
cash by the Assets Realization Co.
The report says: ct is doubtful if
$4,000 can be realized. Present adj
vices indicate that Mr.. ODER is no
longer in active business. He is at
present without means and is sup
porting himself by raising poultry on
a small farm in Northern Minnesota.
"The San Jose Lumber Co. is on
the books at a value of $133, 400. An
investigation showed that the San
Jose property was valueless except
for grazing purposes"
