BANK SvvlNDLERS GET
$1,000 IN BALTIMORE
Two Men Believed to Have Been
Operating Separately-Washing-
ton Inquiry Reveals Fraud.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, August 11.-That
two bank swindlers have been op-
Grating in Baltimore for six weeks
with signal success has just been
brought to light. During that time.
by means Of bogus checks, they have
swindled half q dozen or more local
banks and trust companies out Of
approximately $4,000. Police investi-
eating the case are inclined to be-
lieve that the men responsible for
the swindles have been working sep
arately and are not known to each
other.
The institutions which were visited
by the swindlers are the Continental
Trust Company. the Union Trust
Company, the Maryland Trust Com
pany, the Baltimore Trust Com
pany, the Mercantile Trust and De-
posit Company and the Park Bank.
The plan of operation was to go to
the banks, open up an account and
make small deposit. In several
days the men would return and de-
posit a number of checks, drawn on
out-of-town banks. On the same day
the original cash deposit would be
withdrawn, and several days later a
withdrawal of part of the amount
represented in tho deposit books by
the bogus checks would be made.
Reports now in the hands of the
police show that the men first started
their operations in this city on July
/, and were still in the city on August
S. In opening accounts at the va
rious banks the men used many
aliases. The names under which they

PRESS COM TENT
(Barre TimeS)

That course in storekeeping at the
Goss Hollow school, near st. Johns
bury, will be particularly valuable if
it teaches the youngsters how to
make their purchases to the best
advantage. A considerable percentage
OF people grow up to manhood and
the ludiments of buying, that is, of
womanhood without having learned
buying to the best advantage of them
selves. For instance, they do not
know what part Of the COW is best
unless they are guided by the varia-
ton in price, and they are wholly at
the mercy of the meat dealer. So
it goes with other lines of goods gen.
orally to be found on the countcr.in
any store. Sometimes they are rather
poor in the accounting part of the
purchasing end of trade and they are
imposed on by an occasional unsclup-
ulous dealer. TO get right change
and TO insist on correct measure
mentS and weights are important
features of Il store school from the
purchasers standpoint; and we pre-
sumo that side of the transaction is
not being neglected in the course of
instruction now being held in Goss
Hollow.
