Investors" in Supposed
Concern Of Stoneham
Hopeful.
BY ROBERT 7. SMALL.

Copyright. by The San Antonio Ligh,
New York, Oct. IA rude awas
ching today came to many thousand
u poor, deluded investors in tn
"buc,aet shops" of Wall street.
These investors 1.-THE men benin,

crs"-have been laboring for som,
months under the delusion that the.
were going to recover at least par
of their losings.
They have employed expensive coun
sci, have formed themselves int,
creditors associations" and in va
rious other ways, sad to relate, hav,
been sending good money after the
bad.
In one Of the most notorious of the
"bucketing" failures, the referee in
bankruptcy announced today that h.
would hold no further hearings and
there is every indication that the two
members of the failed brokerage y
concern will receive their discharge as
bankrupts and be cleared of all none
tary responsibilities.
The firm was that of Kardos and
Burke, which failed in 1922 for more
than two million dollars with virtual.
ly no assets.
John Burke, the junior member of
the firm. formerly was treasurer of
the United States.
In the various proceedings that
have followed the failure, Mr.. Burke
has testified that he had nothing to
1n with tha firms a.f; ,.,t, -, So,
he knew nothing of the business what
ever.
But he had lent his name to the
firm and when it failed the creditors
had an idea that they would be- able
to collect some of their lost cash per-
sonally from Mr.. Burse if not from
Mr.. Kardos, who was the genius of
the organization and conducted the
operations.
Grand Jury Probe.
The grand jury investigation of
bucket shop failures resulted in the
return of five or six indictments
against Kardos, but Mr.. Burke was
not mentioned in the proceedings.
The proposal now to discharge the
members of the firm rs bankrupts
leaves the deluded creditors with not
4 leg to stand on.
The same process has been gone
through with in other cases and one
by one the poor fish, who were unfor-
tunate enough to get their names on
the highly priced sucker" lists that
circulate at so much per list through
out the shadowy lanes of the metro
politan financial district, see their
fondest hopes disappear.
1t is true they employed expensive
counsel, but the "bankrupts" have
