IN NEW YORK

New York, May 2S.-The old
fashioned sleek and slick-talking
swindler has all but disappeared
from the New York scene. His
type has become too well impressed
upon the public mind by the exag-
geration Of tho movies. The get
rich-quick idea has undergone .
change, thanks to the stock market.
Anyone with enough money to put
up margin can get in on the game,
and at least they have the satisfac-
ton of knowing where their money
went-if it goes. And some have
been phenomenally fortunate.
Education by banks and by sound
investment companies have taught
the public not to cast pearls before
swindlers. In the old days, when
life duplicated the melodramas, the
"slicker" went in for flashy clothes,
q fast line. Of chatter and dummy
! telephones in his office over which
| to receive fake messages that were
certain to impress the sucker"
Carefully watching tho New York
police records, I have found but .
few instances In tho past couple Of
years wherein the old swindling
methods were applied by "Nsw York
slickers."
As q matter Of fact the latest
spoils have been collected by very
western-lopking gentlemen who de-
scended upon New York from Tex
as, Oklahoma and the oil states and
left plenty Of worthless stock cer-
tificiates lying about. Thus has the
tide turned-Manhattan becomes
the victim and the "wise guy" is q
fellow with . l0-gallon hat and an
honest, sunburned countenance.
These seemingly trustworthy gents
from the great open spaces have
beat the big town at its own game.
They established offices and hired
@ their statesmen the sleek and
shck-talking fellows who are pre-
sumed to be the heads of their
shifty craft.
The public am told, has become
aware Of the fact that it is gambling
when it makes such . purchase.
The humble widow il FAR less likely
to be taken In by the snappy line
than she is by tea-room sheik who
dances well and walks off with her
jewels.

upward again by early afternoon.
Thirty or more issues were marked

score issues setting new high records
for the year.
Call money renewed at 1? per
cent. the highest opening rate since

that figure through the morning
trading despite the calling OF about
SS5. 100000 in bank loans. Time
money held firm around the recent
high levels. Although some easing
| in call rates is expected after the
| first of the year. the persistent firm
| ness of time money is a source OF
uneasiness in conservative brokerage
circles.
