Berlin, via London, Feb. ?, 10:3S a. m.-Indignation is expressed by the newspapers generally over the execu- tiOn of Karl Ficke and Herr Grundler in Morocco on charges of treason pre- ferred by the French. The papers term the execution Judicial mur- der,' in view of the circumstances at tending the trial and appeal.

Early Acquaintance With Crooks and

BY OSBORN MARSHALL.

1t was in the good old days of the
early nineties when horse racing flour
ished under kindlier law in New
York than 1t does today that Tom
Eagan had the distinction of being Off
cial stationer and printer to the book
makers and poolrooms of the city. He
supplied them with pencils and pads,
blank books, ink and record books and
did whatever printing their business
called for. He 1t was who printed the
colored tickets issued to those who
bet on the races in the poolrooms or
on the track. These tickets, which
were filed In at the time of the bet
ting, served as record of the transac-
ton, and in case the bettor was lucky
he received his winnings on presenta-
ton of the ticket.
Toms business with the poolrooms
and bookmakers had thriven and it
seemed that the neat little profit from
printing the tickets would continue SO
long as Tom Eagan continued to run
his printing presses.
One day, however, Mr.. Eagan got
word that there were counterfeiters at
work. Fake tickets were being print
ed and filled out to duplicate Eagan's
tickets, and every once in a while win
nings went to a holder of the fake
ticket instead of to the real winner.
So between Mr.. Eagan and the pool
room operators a new system had to
be devised. Thereafter tickets were
printed in several colors, according to
the number of the ticket. That is, all
tickets numbering between one and a
hundred should be pink, all between

as it would do much good If l could.
What we want to do is to get a photo

poolroom and every bookmaker in this
part OF the country. Then they will
know him and can steer clear of him.
Now. what l want you to do is to get
the photograph. He runs a printing
shop down on Broadway and Twenty

the name Of the suspected printer and
Peyser said he would get the photo.
graph if anyone could.
First he went to see the printer on
the pretext of wanting to do some
business with him, taking care not to
arouse his suspicious. Then, when he
had secured his confidence, he went
to a nearby photographer.
There is a fellow around here" he
told the photographer, whose picture
I've got to have. He isn't anxious to
be photographed, either What want
you to do is to hang out on Twenty
seventh street and Broadway and wait
till you see me. I'll come out about
noon with my friend and when you see
us you can level the camera and take
the picture"
This agreed upon, Peyser went to
see the printer, with whom he had al

was seated on bootblack stand, hav-

hand, on the opposite corner. He lev
eled the camera at the dishonest
printer and P!eyser continued to talk
vigorously.
Unable to get the right focus from
the bootblack stand, the photographer
swung down and started out in the
street Then he rested his camera on
the wheel of an express wagon that
happened to be standing at a conven-
lent distance and started to focus
again.
Say" said the printer to Peyser,
"who is that fellow over there and
why is he 'mugging' me? What have
! done that would make anyone want
a picture of me?"
"You!" exclaimed Peyser, with a
laugh. "Nobodys 'mugging' you.
Why, there does seem to be a camera

pulled his wide-brimmed hat over his
face and shrunk his chin down on his
breast. They can get a picture of my
hat if they want it. That can't be
much good" he growled.
Took the Photograph Himself.
After lunch, during which Peyser
tried to get the printers mind off the
camera episode, he left and hurried to
the photographer.
Sorry, Mr.. Peyser," he said, but I
couldn't get any results. Your friend
pulled down his hat and that's all l
could get" He held up the dripping
negative that he had been developing
and showed only a blur OF a hat that
would be of no use as an identified

Peyser hurried ON with his discour-
aging news to Eagan.

and so on throughout the list. Each
day a different color was used for a
different set of numbers, and as this
code was communicated secretly to
the poolroom men it was hoped that in
this way they could detect the fraudu-
lent tickets.
Still the trouble continued. Appar-
emily the dishonest printer printed his
slips on every color Of cardboard
