returning from work early in the af-
ternoon, when at the corner of JEFF
ferson and End avenue her attention
was attracted to a white man about
to enter waiting taxi. AS he enter
tered the taxi, a bill folder fell from
his pocket and two strange colored
men standing near picked up the
book. They asked Mrs. Hoyt if she
had seen them pick up the book and
she replied in the affirmative. Open
ing the book one of the men exclaim-
ed there was $1,000 bill in it. Mrs.
Hoyt suggested that they return the
pocket book to the owner, but they
said they would split the money with
Mrs. Hoyt if she would say nothing
about She went to her bank and
drew out the change, S425 and re-
turned to the spot where the bill fold
had been found. The men grabbed her
pocket book and ran. She caught the
smaller one and was holding him by
his overcoat when he slipped out of
the. coat and fled. She took the coat
to police headquarters and told her

trail of the confidence men. Up to
time of going to press, no trace of
them has been found.
