Amusement has been expressed at
the ease with which the confidence
of level-headed business men Is gained
by these strangers. One Of the detec

arrests asked the prisoners how they
managed 1t. They did not explain,
however.
U. S. Commissioner Bassett has
been highly commended for the heavy
bond he demanded, also for his activ-
ity in running the gang down. U. S.
Deputy Marshal French covered him
self with glory by the skill with
which he set the trap and the rapidity
with which he worked. Efforts have
been started towards securing bail for
the men. Their first move is an at

the six alleged con" men now enjoy

it is believed, will remain indoors un-
til brought into court to stand trial.
In Saturdays issue the arrest OF
the men was mentioned, but owing to
the lateness of the hour when they
were arraigned before U. s.. Commits
sioner Bassett, the result of the same
was not obtained until after going to
press. C. H. Myers, H. C. Mays,
e. G. Collins, j. Eaton, Edward
Phillips and George Franklin Clark
were caught in. the net spread by the
Federal officers and their bonds were
fixed at $4,000. Mays and Myers were
arrested first at a moment when they
believed they were about to take over
twenty thousand dollars from Marx
Carroll of Toledo, Ohio.
AS stated in Saturdays issue the
men were working the old fake race
horse game. Mr.. Carroll apparently
was an easy victim and they would
have separated him from his "wad' if
it had not been for the intuition and
instant action of his two friends and
partners to whom he applied FOR the

game and to save their friend. They
communicated with the federal au-
thorities who handled the affair so
successful. Deputy U. s. Marshall
French did splendid work and very
skilfully laid a trap which he sprung

At the Calm farm a busy scene
greeted the officers. Telegraph instru-

were ringing, while the fake operators
were calling out orders, the result of
races, the amount Of bets, etc. The
raid was a complete surprise, the
ICON" crowd believing that it was a
party of suckers" that had arrived.
The stage was all set to impress them.
U. s. Commissioner Basset entered
the place first, his rap at the door be-
ing answered. He asked if the place
was the club and was advised it was

keeper in charge and warned him not
to open his mouth. Then the officers
entered, unobserved, as the fake pool
room was in rear room. On the
table in the room lay gun, ready for
use, but the men came out to investi-

ance, and Mr.. Bassett made dash
for the gun on the table. One of the
gang turned and raced for 1t also, but
Marshal French threw his gun on the
alleged crook and halted him. Aside
from the telegraph instruments, tele-

The congress that assembled TO SET
IN order the affairs Of Europe after
the recent tremendous upheaval nat
urally calls to mind the congress Oh
Vienna, which met over a hundred
years ago for a similar purpose after
the vast upheaval Of the Napoleonic
wars. Then, as now, the delegates
professed to meet to establish con-
dition which should ensure a lasting
peace.
The armies Of France had been ut
terly defeated. Napoleon had EN-
braced in farewell the imperial eagles
in the courtyard of Fontainebleu and
passed away to Elba. Nearly a NIL
lion troops, which the allied sCver-
eigns had employed to drag down
the Corsican, had gone back to their
own countries for disqualification or
were on their way there. The wars
which, with slight intervals for re-
freshments and rest, had ravaged the
world for IS years, were, over with
one exception. The United States
and England were still at war. The
United States had come into the con-
fiict only two years before, had made
NO alliances or associations, ana was

land.
Royal Pomp and splendor.

Der 8, 1914, and Vienna was a scene
of royal pomp and splendor. The EN-
perors of Austria and Russia, the
kings Of Prussia, Bavaria, Wurtem
