organization to be disposed of. The
stock room girl had been taught
how to accomplish this transfer Of
valuable articles to the dishonest
driver in the Fagin school room.
In each of the stores where the
organization had placed the pupils
of its school OF crime, other agents
waited during certain hours of the
day. to be handed packages or I'M
wrapped articles by the errand
girls and sales clerks who had be-
come victims Of the master GRIM
inal Sometimes they roved
around the first floor, apparently
aimless shoppers, but really on the
lookout for the little girl. or youth.
from among the store employees
who sought to surreptitiously hand
them stolen package containing
a suit, a gown, fur cloak or
valuable waist or bit of costly lin
gerie. They knew their pupils.
When they saw one approaching
they made their own identity
known. and soon the stolen article
was out Of the store and in pos
session Of fence" who knew iust
where to sell il at a profitable
price. In the case of c. o. D. pack
ages, accompanied by the audit
ing" slips, these agents sometimes
boldly delivered the package. as
with the $3.50 suit, and collected
the money due.
With the discovery Of the school
many mysterious incidents having
to do with the disappearance OF
vast amounts Of costly articles
were explained. 1t is one of the
duties Of the store managers never
to be defrauded in the same way a
second time when there is a way
OF preventing 1t. The methods Of
beating" the checking systems
taught in the Fagin school cannot
be practised again-but the master
criminal always is creating new
ways OF defrauding the stores.
Other schools are in operation in
other cities, and their curriculum
constantly is changing.
The little errand girl who was
seen by the customer, and who
thus was the cause OF the discovery
OF the crime school in New York
City, told the detectives how she
