Three patrol wagons, working in

Confidence Games
Based on Cupidity

Chicago, March 3.-"The conf
dence game is as old as the deception
OF Essau and it is based now, as then,
on human cupidity," Walter 5.
Brewster, president OF the Chicago
stock exchange, told members OF the
Chicago Association OF Commerce.
"There is no cause for alarm in the
present roundup OF fraudulent in
vestment concerns" he declared.
This sort OF thing has been going on
always. We have had the South sea
bubble, the gold mine story, the gold
brick game and score OF other var
iations. But only during the last
three or four years have we had ade-
quate laws to prevent stock SWIM
dies"
Speculation as it is conducted on
the stock exchange here is not gam
bling, but a legitimate and neces-
sary business function, i'll the opin-
ion of Mr.. Brewster.

Nephew Only Heir
toPope Benedict
Late Pontiff Disposed Of All
Personal Property at Time
of Elevation.

Rome, March 3.-The late Pope
Benedict, when he died, was pos
sessed OF no property except those
few belongings which, before my
assumption OF the Roman pontificate
were already publicly registered in
my name and located in the COM
mune OF Pcgli, near Genoa and Bo-
logna." These belongings were left
by him to his nephew, the son oi
his brother, Giovanni Antonio Della
Chiesa. The pontiff disposed of all
of his personal estate after his elcva-
ton.
These facts became known today
when the will of Benedict was
opened. 1t was dated February 20,
1916, and its contents indicated that
it was drawn while the pope reflect
ed on the terrors Of the war. In part
the will says:
e The thought that my life is in
Gods hands and that any moment
| might be taken away, counsels me
to make my last will and testament,
principally to declare the nature OF
the belongings of which l now am
in possession. 4.
Having invoked the divine aid
and putting my trust in the inter-
cessions of the Most Holy Virgin
and Of Saints Joseph, Peter, Paul,
James and Benedict, I accept, even
to the hour of my death that mo-
ment ordained by God for the end
of my existence; and for that hour
l declare that l do not possess title
to any property except those few be-
longings, which before my assump-
ton Of the Roman pontificate, were
already publicly registered in my
name and located in the communes
of Pegli and Bologna.
"On my elevation to the pontifi-
cate, I voluntarily deprived myself
