Ponzi Opened Office
 In Bridgeport Recently

The Securities Exchange Company of Boston which pays 50 percent in 45 days. 100 per cent. in 90 days, on any amount invested, and which is causing great interest throughout the financial world at the present time. has opened a branch office in the Liberty building in this city. The office is located in Room 313 and Charles P. Fox, who came to this city especially to open the office, is in charge w. L. Jarvis, of Boston, is the district manager. So far offices have been opened only in New Ha- ven and this city.
 Another office will soon be opened in Hartford and other places in the state. Up to the present time the two solicitors have done very little business in this city because inves- tors have been amazed at the guar antee of 50 per cent for 45 days and 100 per cent for, 90 days offered by the company for the loan of money. Investors believe 1t is impossible, but Manager Fox expects there will be plenty of business very soon and af- ter the company gets established.
 The manager himself has received a check of s3,OOO, but that did not come from a Bridgeport investor. It was a Boston man who is willing to take the chance with Charles Ponzi's meth cd of making money through the diff ference in foreign exchange rates. This week, according to Manager Fox, the solicitors are not working because the home office in Boston asked thar nothing be done until the audit in the home office had been competed
 Next week. according to MT. Fox the local office will be ready to dt business with anyone and he expect! there will be rush of patrons look ing for an opportunity of increasing their holdings

SAY HE SWINDLED MANY WITH FAKE
 MONEY MACHINE

Peter Kules1a, of Brooklyn, N. Y., urday in company with Stanley Wait kus on a charge of swindling a local woman out of $3,2o0 in the sale of fake money making machine, will be brought back to Bridgeport as soon as the necessary extradiion papers can be prepar red.
 Kulesza is wanted in several cities for a similar offense, and is alleged to have been mixed up in two money machine deals here. Waitkus, who was arrested a t the same time, is not wanted in Bridgeport, but may be ex- tradited to Massachusetts where he is alleged to have sold a machine.
 The outfit which was sold to the local woman consisted principally of two small boards and several blotters. KuleSza placed a bill and a piece of paper alternately between the boards, sprinkled them with water, which he said was acid, and then fastened the boards together. He said that the acid would transfer the dye on the bills to the blank papers. The ma chine was then put away for a short time until the dye had become thor oughly dry. Upon opening the boards, the victim discovered that she had 16 blotters instead of the expected cash. Kulesza further explained that should a person wish to make two $1, 900 bills out of a single of that de- nomination, the dye should be allowed to dry for nine hours. The proc edure would give the man plenty of time to make a getaway with a large haul.

LOSES WIPE AT THEATER,
 BEGS FARE

Has anyone in Bridgeport seen woman 20 years old, wearing a big black picture hat. white shoes and a black silk taffeta dress? She was last seen in Polls theatre yesterday after noon where she attended the matinee with her husband. In some myster- ious way the couple got separated and the husband is worried to death for fear that his better half has been kid mapped or spirited away.
 But listen to the whole story as told by Otto Bondi of 5622 Fourth avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y. as told by him to Assistant Superintendent of Charities ing this morning.
 " esterday morning" said Bondi,
 my wife and 1 left Beacon Falls, where we have been living for the
 past two weeks, and where I was em-
 ployed as a rubber worker in one Of
 the factories. We arrived in Bridge
 port about noon, stopping off here so
 that we could beat the high cost of
 Railroad travelling and take the night
 boat to New York. going from there
 to Brooklyn. where my mother lies
 sick in bed. After reaching Bridge
 port we went to Polls to see the show.
 I got seperated from my wife after
 we got inside the theatre but did not worry at the time, believing that I would meet her outside after the show was over I waited in the lobby after the performance was over but she did not come out. Before we went into the place I gave her all the money I had. amounting to about $35, and I haven't seen her since." Continuing his story with tears in his eyes Bondy said: After hunting around for time reported the mat ! ter to tine ro lice and they put me up ! at the station house for the night as | I was broke and this morning they l told Sne to come up here to see you. I want to get car fare back to Beacon Falls"
 | Genial Alex refused to listen to the raan's plea for the fare to Beacon Falls but gave him the price of a | ticket to Brooklyn and put him on the
 next train out after wishing him luck
 in the search for his better half. Bondy 1 told MT. Morrissey that he was mar
 ried to Mrs. Bondy by a justice of the
 peace in Brooklyn in 1919 and had the | maria ge ceremony repeated by a priest of the Catholic church on May Il of | this year. Bondy was dressed in an | outing. costume and sported a pair of 1 white shoes.
