Victims Rush to Meet Swindlers -;- Worthless Certificates' Are Eagerly Grabbed Up by Innocent Dupes. ,0IL STOCKS STILL SELLING odern Inventions Help Crooked Sales. men Unload Stock on Unsuspecting Buyers "Wildcat" Brokers Make Fortunes. New York. In years ;;ono by, the gold, brick artists and oil st'ck sales men were so successful that P. T. Uitriiuin onco remarked that n "sucker Is born every minute." Today, with modern Inventions and a public just as pnger to bo "stung," tho "sharpers" (lnd the birth rato oven higher, nnd their profits are so much tho greater. It has been estimated that In tne nst year more thnn 800,000,000 has ticen thrown away by tho people of ho United States on "wildcat" schemes that rnngo from oil stock to making metal from horses' hoofs and extract ing gold from sea wutcr. According to statistics, there arc more "suckers" in IJio country today thun Mr. Darnum imagined. j During tho Inst year, hundreds of r.tock brokers have been arrested In va rious cities for selling "wildcat" stocks. In many cases, however, tho "brokers" Wero tipped oft that thoy wero being watched anil, like tho Arabs, they raided their tents und silently stole liway. With them went tho money of ministers, department store clerks, ptenogruphers, telephone operators, housewives, nnd staid business men. Thcro aro nt tho present time, It s estimated, approximately 1,000 'bucket shops" in tho United States. If theso 1.000 shops arc to remain ppon, they must lmvo $100 n day each, which, In a year of 000 days, means an Income of $30,000,000 nimunlly for blllco expense alone. This Is to meet tho expense of wlro nnd ticket services and blackboard boys, with tho gullible paying tho cost. A Favorite Trick. A favorite trick of the bogus stock Salesmen is to secure from tho tele phono list or directory tho names of physicians, ministers, and school teachers. Tho salesman makes a call and, by his pcrsunslvo voice, Is usually nblo to sell at least ten shares of a certain stock for $1 a share. A few Uays later another agent cnlls and offers $2 rf shnro for tho stock, but the buyer, Instead of reselling, buys inoro stock from tho second salesman. Tho sjlck salesmen then disappear and tho buyer realizes that watipapcr (s much cheaper than the puper ho has mirchascd. A mushroom buckotshop In Philadel phia a year ago played n wonderful gamo while It lasted. Out of tho tele phone directory tho operators took 2,000 names, and to theso addresses they sent trndo letters. To 1,000 of tho addresses these so-called brokers slated that a ccrtnln stock was duo for n sudden rise. To tho other 1,000 persons went similar lettors stating that this self-same stoci: was tiuo for h fall. In this manner, tho buckotshop keepers made 1.00Q friendi who thought the brokers know what thoy word talking about when tho stocks did go up. This was followed by teiephono calls for orders nnd many shores wero purchased. Tho 1,000 per sons who were told tho stock would eo down wero not bothered ncnln. Tho following day out went 1.000 letters' to tho ones to whom the "guesi rlght" letters hnd been sent. In this Instance, COO letters predicted nu ad vance In tho stock and to tho re mainder went word of a decline. This left D00 customers who would by this time swear by rtfo "prophets." When tho list was completed, nnd tho brokers had made a nlco hnul, new names wore taken from the telephone directory and tho process repented, Prominent Names a Factor. A favorite trick of tho Btock swlnd lera that Is tho mushroom variety thut bloom overnight, lleeco tho "In hoccnts," and then depart cither to a prjson cell or parts unknown Is to adopt tho trndo uumo of promlueut do ceased bankers, or tho name of a build ing In which they establish luxurious ly furnished suites. Then they sit bnck and listen to the dollars clinking Into their coffers from the pockets of the unsuspecting, who believe thoy nro dealing 'with the sons of the financial wizards of n generation ago. Any secret process to manufacture anything Is ono of tho favorite founda tions on which to construct a swindle. It seems to cloak charlatanism and fur nish a tempting appeal to human credulity. Not long ago a company was formed In one of the largo east ern cities to make cosmic bearings for automobiles nnd airplanes. The proc ess was to ho kept secret, It being decided not to oven patent tho process beenuso of tho danger of Its being stolen. When tho secret was revealed at n directors' meeting, after tho proper amount of stock had been disposed of, It rend as follows: "To 100 pounds of metal add four ounces of horse- hoof pnrlngs, three ounces of borax, two ounces of powdered glass, and ono ounce of sen salt. After copper, lead, and tin nro fluid, put In horse hoof parings nnd stir well, then add glass, bornx, and sen salt combined, then stir." A Good-Formula. Not tho least amusing thing In rela tion to tho formula wns that It Is all right. Tho company expected to make tho concoction nt a cost of 18 cents n pound, nnd sell It nt 85 cents, but n subscriber to tho stock who could not quite fathom where the horse-hoof par ings en in c In began an Investigation, despite the fact that he had been sworn to secrecy. He learned that foundry men throughout tho country had been using this formula for half n century, nnd that tho product could be sold by them for 11 cents a pound, or 0 cents cheaper thnn It cost tho company to manufacture It. The ofllclals of the stock compnny wero arrested, but, It Is salt, they had taken In more than $575,000. through the scheme. "BEHEADED" MAN NOW 0. K.

When the long win ter nights 24 hours long, In fact prohibit almost any sort of amusement to tho operators on tho 2,000 miles of Canadian gov ernment telegraph line through the Yukon, the "brass pounders" piny chess by wire. Two men tap out their moves to ench oilier and other men "watch" the games by listening In on the line nnd making the moves on boards of their own. This is vouched for by Q. S. Fleming, district superintendent of the Canadian government lines nt Whltehorse, who Is In Seattle. j:--------------i-- terprlse nnd, In nccordanco with the swift Justice of tho Chinese, he and the other six were promptly convicted and led out to bo executed. The bends of the six were quickly chopped off, but by n mischance whonthe knife descended upon Wong's neck it did not sever tho head but merely Inflicted a gnplng wound. This wns taken as n sign thnt some special spirit was acting ns Wong's guardian and neither tho executioner nor nny other dared again swing the knife. Wong wns taken to the ynmen of tho magistrate, who nlso was Im pressed, so much so that tho ofllclal not only granted the culprit u full pardou, but ho also gnvo Wong n let ter of Introduction to those in chnrgo of tho mission hospital. The Chris tian doctor In charge there restored Wong to well-being nnd so he goea about today a free man and one to be respected.
