SAYSFLORIDA WIRE
GANG is ROUNDED UP
U. S. Attorney Menin Declares
Four Indicted Breaks Swind-
ling Ring.

With the indictment yesterday by the
Federal Grand Jury of four men
charged with having duped retired
New York business man OF $4,000 by
representing themselves as stock tip
sters Abraham /. Menin, Assistant
United States Attorney said he believed
the Government had rounded up an or
ganzed gang of swindlers whose opera
tions during the last two winter seasons
in Florida resorts had defrauded their
victims OF some 100000.
The four men indicted are: I. Jeff
Sharum, alias Jeffries and Sherwood:
Frank Warson. alias Melvin: George
w. Neville. and a fourth man described
as John Doe" Mr.. Menin said that
Sharum has prison record. The four
are charged with having used the mails
in furtherance of a scheme to defraud.
Although the swindle for which the
men are Indicted occurred some two
years ago. November 8. 1920. the case
was revealed to the public for the first
time yesterday, Mr.. Menin said. The
victim was Herman Mandelbaum 10. a
wealthy retired New York business man
whose address was not disclosed, He
took his loss good naturedly and
laughed it off until some friends i'm
pressed upon him the fact that he was
one of the many who are duped every
season by swindlers operating in Florida
resort towns.
Then he got busy and told his story
to post Office inspectors and the case
went to the Grand Jury last week.
Mr.. Menin stated that the four men
became acquainted with MIR. Mandel-
baum by playing the old pocket book
dropping game. Sharum was introduced
to Mandelbaum as Standard Oil Com
pany official, with offices at 26 Broad
way. Following an acquaintance of rel
atively short duration, Mandelbaum is
said TO have accompanied the men to
a fake brokerage house, where he lost
large sums OF money through worthless
tins
