men to the room appeared SO over.

the money, but as he could not collect
until next day, when the official race

that they remain in Tarpon Springs
overnight. He also announced that
next day he would have to put up
actual cash to cover the amount Of
the checks he had given in making
the bet

ed mouse, suspecting that when Il
came to cashing in the man would
declare he was short several hundred
dollars and would ask that his COM

At the hotel Mr.. Harris looked up
the racing returns from Havana in a
Tampa paper, but failed to find any
horse entered by the name Of "Ro-
land" He then told his companion
that he suspected the old wire-tap-
ping game was being worked and an

st. Petersburg next morning.
On the way home Mr.. Harris sug-
gested that the story be given to the
newspapers in order to warn other
tourists, but his companion warned
him that the men, il they were graft

it would be wise to be careful.

Wire TAPPING GAME
As PULLED OFF
IN TARP0N SPRINGS

icSteIuisyS oC. PctCrSDurg Times
contains the following account Of the
operations of wire tarpers at Tarpon
Springs. The Times says:
Moe Harris, real estate dealer
from New York city, who arrived in
st. Petersburg last Thursday and who
is staying at the Poinsettia hotel, is
congratulating himself that he is not
worrying over the loss of consider.
able sum in cold hard cash, but he de-
plores the fact that a man from New
York, where the old confidence game
OF wire tapping" was born, should be
picked out by men attempting to work
the old money-getting ruse in new
form here.
Last Saturday, according to Mr.. Har-
ris, he was approached by we'll
dressed, middle-aged man, apparently
tourist, and, after the two had talk
ed together for a few moments, the
stranger, who gave O name, evidently
fictitious one, suggested that they
go to Tarpon Springs to see the
sponge fisheries. Mr.. Morris agreed
and they left on the next bus.
Shortly after their arrival the
stranger pointed to a man across the
street, mentioning that he had seen
him pay of mortgage for $4,000 In
Brooklyn, N. Y, two weeks ago, and
that he understood the fellow had
made big sum of money betting On
the ponies" Mr.. Harris said he was
not interested in racing, but short
time later his companion hailed the
man and asked II he was not the same
person he had seen in Brooklyn.
The stranger appeared embarrassed
but admitted he was the person men,
toned, and he then asked IL the two
men were with a newspaper. He ex-
planned that he had been connected
with a racing association, being under
heavy bond to do no betting, but that
he had risked some money and had
cleaned up $250,000. He showed
newspaper clipping mentioning such
an occurrence and asserted he was
the person spoken of in the article.
He said also that the association had
laid him off for six months because
of his having made bets. He then
suggested that his new acquaintances
do him the favor of placing few
bets for him as he did not wish to
break his bond again.
NOT yet suspecting anything, Mr..
Harris agreed, and he and his COM
panion went with their new acquain.
