almost an air of disinterest that they

Wire Tappers Arrested
At St. Augustine; Were
Pulling Off $4,000
Deal When NabbeC
(St. Augustine Record Of Jan. 25.)

(St. Augustine Record Of Jan. 25.)
With visions of twenty Thousand
dollars dissipated and with probable
long term in the Federal prison await
ing them, bunch of crooks who have
been working the confidence game in
this section are feeling somewhat
down-hearted today, having been ap-
pretended by Federal officers this
morning.
Two of the gang, the ones that
planned and almost carried into effect
the robbing OF visitor of 100000
were nabbed neatly this morning as
they believed they were putting the
finishing touches to their artistic
scheme.
Marx Carroll, a prominent business
man of Toledo, Ohio, was the intended
victim, and he had very narrow es-
cape, for he was with difficulty per-
suaded that he was dealing with
crooks. He came TO Florida for a
pleasure trip and en- route his ac-
quaintance was cultivated by one G..
H. Myers, alias Sans. In Jackson
vile where he stayed for few days
the acquaintance ripened into friend
ship, and the alleged crook complete
" won the confidence of Mr.. Carroll.
On arriving In st. Augustine Myers
introduced his friend, H. c. Mays to
Mr.. Carroll and the twain hung on
to the Toledo man like leeches He
found them congenial company and
made no effort to shake them. Later
Mays promised to let them in on a
good thing" an investment that
would make their fortunes. He played
the same old race horse game, tell
ing them that they could win $2Oc,-
900 by putting UP $4,000. Myers
agreed to put up 100000 If Mr. Car
roll would furnish $4,000. Mr. Car
roll wrote to his partner in Toledo,
J. E. Vandeventer, asking him to
convert certain property into cash
and to send him the twenty Thousand,
as he had big deal on that would
make him rich. J. l.. VermillioD,
president of the bank which was pat
ronized by Mr.. Carroll, and Mr.. Var-
deventer received wire from Mr,
Carroll relative to the loan. Mr.. Van
deyenter received papers giving hin
power of attorney. After a very
brief conference the two gentlemen
concluded that their friend had fallez
into the hands of crooks and they
caught the first train south. They re-

Meets His Two Friends
