WALL STREET WOLF SENT UP.
Convicted of Conspiracy and Imper-
sOnating U. S. Officials.

New York, Dec. 3.-David Lamar
was to-day found guilty of imperson-
ating Representative A. w. Palmer,
of Pennsylvania, for the purpose Of
defrauding j. p. Morgan & Co., and
the United States Steel Cooperation.
He was Immediately sentenced to
serve two years in the Federal peni-
tentiary at Atlanta, Ga.
The crime Of which Lamar-nick-
named by brokers "The Wolf Of Wall
Street"-was convicted is one sell
dom entered on the records Of the
Federal Court here.
The government charged that La
mar and his friend, Edward Lauter-
back, a lawyer, entered into a con-
spiracy to obtain money from the
United States Steel Corporation and
the Morgan firm by representing
themselves as agents Of Speaker
Clark and other men high in Con-
gress. To further this conspiracy,
it was charged, Lamar telephoned
Lewis Cass Ledyard and others, rep
resented himself to be Representative
Palmer, of Pennsylvania, said that
he was acting with the knowledge
and sanction of Speaker Clark and
sought to have Mr.. Uedyard obtain
employment for Lauterpack with the
Morgan firm Or the Steel Corporation
The telephone conversations, it
was testified, lasted for several days
before Mr.. Ledyard telephoned to
the real Representative Palmer and
found that he had been talking pre-
viously with an imposter. In the
meantime Mr.. Ledyard had seen Lau-
terback, and Lauterback, Mr.. Led
yard said, had demanded money for
his services.
Three indictments were found by
the grand jury. Two of them charg-
ed Lamar with representing himself
as an officer of the United States.
The third charged Lamar and Lau-
terback with conspiracy. The one
naming Lauterback, District Attor-
ney Marshall said, would be pressed
against Lauterback at an early date.

There is more catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
durable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease, and there

one of the great requisites for an

That remains to be seen. But
