BIG SYNDICATE
 FOR SWINDLINC
 BANKS LOCATED
POLICE SEARCH FOR FOURTEEN MEMBERS OF MA TIONAL GANG OF SWINDLERS WHO HAVE SECURED MORE THAN $2,OO0,0O0 IN COIN

CHICAGO, H., Jan. 10.-(PJ-Lo- cal police officials and detectives are seeking fourteen members of na- tional syndicate of swindlers who are alleged to have divided more than $2,0OO,OOO in spells with politicians, corrupt police officers, lawyers and bank officials during the course Of their operations. The existence ot the gang is said to have been dis covered by operatives in the employ of a New York indemnity company which has suffered severe losses thru its operations.
 This company says that members of the gang robbed an Omaha bank of $110,O0Q Illinois banks are said to have been nicked by it for at least $2OO, ,O0O. There is hardly section of the country that has not been touched by the gangs activities and in which members of the bunch or some of it's tools are not employed.
 The identity of the swindlers has not been diyulged But it is said that among them are prominent bank of ficials, politicians of more than state prominence, many reputable lawyers and high police officials in some cities.
 The method of operation said to have been used is simple. The swind- lers thru bank employees, or officials in the banks, learned of the ship ments of money being made and hir- ed robbers to follow messengers and make the haul, These thugs got 20 per cent of what they pinched and were provided with safe getaway where the police could be fixed or with expert attorneys if they were caught.
