Postal Fraud

lar prey of the dapper youth who is
alleged to lead the gang.
Entering q shop, usually just before
theater time at night, he would order
bunch of flowers, costing anywhere
from $1b to $25. sent to some well
known player. After giving the order
1t would occur to him that he was a
little short of ready cash. That an
peared to annoy him, but he had d
United States postal money order for
Sloo and, of course. the florist wouldn't
mind cashing thac.
From his inside pocket he draws
stamped and addressed envelope which
has been sent to him through the mail,
ne says. The order is folded within a
letter. 1t is perfectly all right for the
florist to read the letter if he SO de-
sires. oh, yes indeed. Is is brief and
puslnessllke, In some cases. and in
others it has jocular familiarity.
Ihe formal letters merely say:
Dear Sir:
Enclosed please find postal money
order for one hundred ($10O) dollars,
Please acknowledge receipt Of same
and oblige,
very truly yours"
other letters used by the gang are
framed in more engaging phraseology,
obviously coming from a friend who
regrets that he has kept Pete or Steve
waiting so long for the hundred and
who also regrets that the money market
is so tight,
The Federal agents say that the gang
attempted to work this game on Jack
Curley, promoter of the recent Zyby-
sko- Lewis wrestling match, but were
to1led when Curley became suspicious,
The promoter was called on the tele-
phone few days before the match by
! a man who said he represented a weil
known club for which he was anxious
to reserve block of forty-eight seats
at $40 each. In the theaters. Mr.,
Schwartz and the Department Of jus
New-York tribune., 1921-05-10

tfce men say, the custom was Co reserve
anywhere from ten to twenty-five seats
by telephone for some night In the
following week. The man on the phone
assured the box Office that he would
mali q money order Immediately in
payment. Sure enough, the money or
der would arrive and the seats would
be reserve. That afternoon the man
who phoncd would call and say that
ms party OF twenty or twenty-five had
dwindled to three or tour, and would
the management kindly refund the
money?
In most instances the crook left the
theater with the tickets and the
money. In many cases these tickets
we're sold to unsuspecting persons, and
1t was information obtained by De-
partment of Justice agents from peo-
pie occupying the seats that led to yes
serday's arrests.
Two Already Sentenced
Mr.. Schwartz told for the first time
yesterday the inside story of the ar
rest and conviction of David Bachrack
and Theodore Atkins, sentenced last
week by Judge Hand to two years in
the Atlanta Psnitentiary for passing
fraudulent postal money orders. The
exact amount realized by Bachrack on
stolen orders can hardly be estimated
Mr.. Schwartz said, but $4,000 worth
were found on him when he was ar
rested. 1t is said to have been the in
formation obtained by Department of
Justice agents from Bachrack and At
kins in Atlanta that revealed the fun
scope of the gangs operations here and
in Ohio.
Atkins is said to come from a
wealthy Kentucky family, his father

Mills Pays Tribute
Representative Ogden l.. Mills. in
the course of q tribute to Chairman
koenig, said that the Republican party
In greater New York had grown to
such proportions that it was now able
to challenge the Democrats on equal
terms.
There is now larger Republican
Shan Democratic enrolment in the five
boroughs," said the member of Con-
gress. There are 10000 more Repub-
leans than Democrats enrolled in
Manhattan. 1t has been suggested
that the Republicans in the Coming
campaign will be animated by selfish
motives, but, under the leadership of
Chairman Koenig it Is safe to assert
that the Republicans will put the in
terests OF the city first and foremost" !"
senator William M. Calder also paid
nigh tribute to the chairman and
predicted that the Republicans would
win in the coming elections. Senator
James w. Wadsworth jr, Helen Varick
Boswell. chairman of the Women's Di-
vision OF the Republican County Cora
mtttee, and Charles e. Heydt, chair
man of the dinner committee, also
spoke.
Senator Wadsworth, in referring to
the Mayoralty campaign, said:
The entire country is going to watch
the Mayoralty fight 1t is important
not only as local, but also as a ma
tional issue. The principle of good gov
ernment is involved In times past. II
is true that New York Republicans
have not been in agreement as to what
should be done IN any given campaign.
but there is no doubt now that the
thing for Republicans to do is to carry
on this campaign with a degree of mill
fancy never before eoualed by them"
Charles e. Heydt, chairman of
the New York County Committee.
echoed the many praises of Chairman
Koenig and presented him with a gold
watch chain and pocket knife on behalf
of the executive committee.
County President Koenig said in

that would fain be construed as self
glorification, but l am intensely graft
fed to be the recipient of such a splen-
did tribute as you have paid me to-
night. The generous words OF praise
and approval thaS have beer so earn
estly spoken here to- night, concerning
my humble service in the cause of Re-
publicanism, have aroused within me
the deepest sense Of appreciation.
1T is a high privilege to be the
guest, without reference to party
affiliation, of so distinguished a gather
ing, and it Is with keen sense OF
satisfaction that I notice so many OF
our Democratic friends assembled. In
supremacy and success, bitter feelings
and unkind thoughts are oft time 8
aroused, but underlying 1t all there is
regard, among real men, for ones
opponents whentNhe fighting is clean
and the hitting above the belt. Our
party opponents, by their presence here
tonight. show their respect for our
fighting and hitting qualities and their
regard for our clean conduct.
"We have unbounded confidence In
the future and hope to render genuine
service to the people OF the city in the
cooperative effort in resstablshing for
the City of New York government which
will be truly responsive to the best
traditions of our great city and repre-
sentative of the highest ideals of it's
citizenship.

tion, made our victories possible dur
