Dtnrcr Tribune.
In Justice JofTrios' court yesterday
there was arranged on a charge ol
vagrancy the most famous "bunko"
and "top and bottom" man and sure
thine worker in the world. Of cotirao
the charge was not sustained. Doe
Dagtjs boards at a fmo hotel. lie : s
in Colorado for his "health , " and has
lived in Denver for several years. lie
pays § 150 per month board for him
self and wife , always has plenty of
money , and his wife owns some -pro
porty. lie had witnesses by ho score
yesterday to show that ho Vas en
gaged in the hack business , that ho
paid his bill promptly , and that his
wife owned property to which ho at
tended. The charge of vagrancy fell
flat , as it was proved , not that Uaggs
had no visible moans of support , but
that ho had every moans of buying the
necessities and the luxuries of life , and
that ho lived like n Prince on money
obtained nobody know whore.
DOG UA004.
An yet among crooked men , _ do
tcctives , police officers arrd the initia
ted generally Doc Baggs is known as
ono among the most successful onfi-
donco men in the United States. Ho
has made and lost thousands of del
lara nt his clever games. All these
wore played with a tact , knowledge of
human nature and elegance of ad
dress that was simply inimitable. In
the Black Hills , at the time of the
rush to the mountains of gold , in
Loadvillo in the days . "of her greatest
prosperity , in many cities cast and
west , north and south , Dee Bangs has
been the central figure around which
sporting men , fly charactora and oven
moro distinguished individuals gath
ered , and into who o exchequer thou
sands of shoklcs poured daily. The
atory of his life and adventures roads
like a romance. Beside his elegant
demeanor and slick manner of work
ing a sucker , the boldest operations
of Canada Bill sink into insignificance
and "Denver" nliaa Bill Champ ,
Bonny Sylvester tnd the whole hire
ling crow become as antiquated fossils
and very tyros in crime. Ho was
never caught or charged with a grave
crime. Ho always preferred to square
things with his victim , if the latter
mndo any fuss , than to square them
with the police. Nobody could give
up money with a bettor grace or amore
moro elegant apology than Doe Baggs ,
and the amounts ho thus refunded
would probably run far up into the
hundred thousands if
' * THE TOTAL COULD IIP. TOLD.
"Whore is Dee Baggs now ? " asked
a reporter yesterday of a once well
known sporting man , when it was
supposed that Baggs had loft the city.
"I guess ho is in town , " was the
reply. "Ho is 'stuck * on Colorado ,
and can stay here , I reckon , as long
as ho wants to. "
"But I heard ho had. skipped out
when it was reported that ho was go
ing to bo arrested for vagrancy. "
"I guess the Dee ain't very much
afraid of being 'vaggod. ' He's too
alick for that. Ho never was caught
yet , and it will bo a long time before
they do catch him , " was the senten
tious response.
"You Know him , then ? " asked the
reporter.
"Well , I should say I did. I traveled -
. olod with him for three years , and
know his history from A to Izzard
and that's what mighty few people do.
The Dee is a silent man , and seldom
has much to say about himself , but
I'll bet he oould give away more
preachers , senators , and especially
chiefs of police who have stood in
with him than any man m the
United States. "
" in Jacksonville Florida
"Why , , ,
two years ago , the authorities , who
got 20 per cent of the Doc's winnings ,
escorted him from the depot to the
hotel in a coach and four , headed by
a band , as a prominent and public
spirited citizen , when ho came to town.
niH UJ8TOHY.
"Doo Baggs was formerly a gam
bler of no great pretentious , " said the
sporting man , "and first began to
come into prominence among the
crooks of the quasi sporting world
about fifteen years ago. Ho was a
disciple of Canada Bill , the notorious
monte man , and ton or twelve yoara
ago was a familiar spirit with Bill ,
"Denver" and Sylvester , when they
used to throw their 'throo cards 'suc
cessfully on the old Kansas Pacific to
see who could 'pick out the boy. '
Dee has been chiefly 'known since /or
his 'bunko' work. In this art ho
stands pro-eminent. Hi" clover ad
dress and genteel appearance' never
failed him , and ho has made thousands
of dollars at the business. In the
Black Hills ho made at least $100,000
in a few months. After the Black
Hills rush ho went to Loadvillo ,
whore ho again worked the town for
u cool $75,000. Ho caught every
body tlroru preachers , bankers ,
brokers and every class of citizens. "
' What does ho do with all his
monoyj"
"Blow it in against faro and spend
it in extravagant living. His enor
mous profit wont the way that all such
ill-gotten gains invariably go. Dee
has lost thousands and thousands of
dollars at faro alono. "
TIUUKH OF TUB TIIAPE.
"Now I will tell you how 'bunko ,
or as the boys on the inside generally
call it , 'bunk' is worked. Bunko is
nothing moro or loss than a lottery
scheme. It takes u nicely furnished
room , Bomo books and charts , a falsa
safe and a good man to play it suc
cessfully , At least Doc always had
, Ilia false eafo , an enormous affair made
of tr'ood with a silver knob , bouuti-
M fully painted and labeled 'Hall's
lPatent' ' Jt looked exactly like
* * * heavy iron safe. One day Doc's office
' in Deadwood caught fire , and ho aur-
prlsod everybody by running dqwn
stains with the massive ( ? ) safe on his
back.
"What did l o want to save it forl"
"Why , d-n ill the thing cost hi
as much as 100. Of course ho
wan ted to savoit. , . Ho had it inado
of wood BO ho could fold it up and
carry it around cosily from place to :
place , You know every tfrao the
bunko mnn catches a big 'sucker' h
moves his office. When the 'sucker
next coines around ho don't find any
thing but an empty room. Besides
Dee used to keep his money and valuables
uablos in that same old woo
chest. No burglars would vontur
to tackle its massive sides , and it wa
ns secure as it would have boon in an ;
vault in the country. "
THK REDUCTIVE OAMB OF BUNKO.
"To play bunko , " continued th
speaker , "you want two stcorora bcaitl
the inside man , Now , supposing
am the steoror. Wo always carry in
our pocket a list of all the banks an <
bank officials in the United States
Now , wo look around and try to siz
up a'gray. ' \Vo like either a yo'ung
follow or an old gray-haired man >
deacon in the church preferred. Wo
find out or guess whether ho has
money , and how much of n roll ho
carries. These things are easily learned
od about hotels , saloons and other
places of amusement. It is not much
Lroublo to 'spot' our man. If wo
know his name all wetland good , Bui
if wo don't I go up and say :
" 'Why , Mr. Brown , how are you ?
' 'My name is not Brown'ho says ,
'my ' name is Smith,1
" 'Why , I thought you was Brown
from Cincinnati ? '
" 'No , sir ; I am Smith from Louis
villc. '
"Now wo have got him. It may
Lake a little more extended conversa
tion , or a few moro excuses , to learn
Ilia name , but wo learn it.
TUB OT1IEK SPOTTER
or stceror is close behind , and I whis
per as I pass , 'W. H. Smith , keeps a
soap factory in Louisville. ' The spot
ter looks hastily over his bank book
in some convenient hallway. In a
moment ho knows every banker in
the town. The spotter is a stranger
and a nephew of ono oi the aforesaid
bankers. Ho gets along bettor with
Smith and the spotter whose name
might bo Jones remembers that ho
bought a lottery ticket somewhere at
the solicitatjon of a friend. By na
tural gradations , or apparently by no
: idont , Jones and Smith entered the
lottery man's office. There is a hugo
safe and a pile of gold bricks and an
lonost looking old man with a gold
pen behind his ear that's Baggs. The
rails are covered with pictures and
) ills of the Kentucky lottery or the
3avana lottery's last drawing. Jones
produces his ticket and finds ho has
irawn $100. The honest old man
innlly admits that ho has a way of
.oiling . by a complicated system of
lumbers what ticket will win a prizo.
Tho-strangers invest again , the impos-
ng system of numbers being explained
at great length.
"Tho strangers draw a considerable
> rizo of $500. The old man protests
, hat they will bust him up. The con
ditions are very peculiar. They look
as if you were bound to win the $500 ,
or if you lost that to win at least two
and a half times the money invested
at each turn except a rebate of CO per
cent. , which goes to the
SINKING FUNDS 0V THE ASSOCIATION.
"The strangers arn fast downing the
) oor ola man with a gold pen behind
lis ear. At every throw they are
drawing conditional prizes , so that at
each time they loose the prize they
; ot more than their money back. But
ivory time they draw the amonnt of
ho forfeit put up has to bo doubled.
The schema is very intricate , plausible
and and the sucker "
taking , "repre
sents" first $50 , then $100 , 8200 ,
$400 , 8800 , 81,000 , etc. , until the
ast draw , when by an unforeseen
runsition , ho looses the whole
amount. Men of the world , men of
amilics , men of every complexion and
color have boon beaten at this game
ind most of them have pocketed their
oss , though it bankrupted them , so
cutely hostho scheme boon played. "
A MtKACHKll's rilEDIOAUKNT.
Continuing in this strain , the ro-
lortor learned many curious incidents
if the doings of Baggs. On ono occa-
ion a Presbyterian deacon or preacher
rom Rock Island was roped into
Jaggs Denver don and robbed of
13,200 in cash. The old man
kicked" and wanted his money back ,
but Baggs treated him in his usual
uavo stylo.
"My dear Mr. , " ho cried , call-
ng him by hia right name , "I will in-
reduce you to the Presbyterian min
ster hero , or I will write to your
rionds Rev. so-and-so , of Daven
port. " The old man was astounded ,
ind loft the bunko room crestfallen ,
1IEUQINQ TIIU ( JAUIILEB
of
o say nothing about the matter. Ho
lad boon roped in on the pious racket ,
ho stooror being a religious young
nan who took him to a lottery for the of
> onefit of the sisters of charity. The
secret was that while talking together
the steoror had written the names of
til the old deacon's friends down on
us shirt cuff and secretly slipped a
1st of them to Bogga before the game
was concluded.
This is only a sample of the nnoo-
lotes related of Baggs.
If the poacher had como around
mlf an hour later ho would have
bund the room dismantled , the heavy
roii safe and all
the furniture as mya-
oriously spirited away as if they had
boon removed by the devil himself.
Captain Mullott , the great live seal
man and furnisher of circus supplies ,
was ono of Baggs' victim at ono time
for 91,900. The money was after
wards refunded. 9
ANECDOTES.
As a "lop and bottom man" Ba/gs
was also a success , This is a kind of
confidence gamp which is played with
dice , and while it makes a very plaus
ible looking method of winning money
to the "sucker , " is sure to rob him of
all ho has in the end. In all those
schemes the dealer and cappers or
Btoorers have to "flash "
up" a big roll
of money. They prefer to "flash upi1
a genuine roll it they hive it , but if
they are short they USD bogus pack
ages of bills known as "Musou's
boodle" from the name of the house ,
Mason & Co. , who make thorn in
Chic-tyo.
THE W0118T OH ALL.
"You say you traveled with Boggs , "
said the reporter to his informant ;
"now who have ' '
you 'squared' in the
various town * you hove uoon in ? "
"Well , " was the reply , "in Jack
sonville , Florida , two years ago this
winter we wuro all right. Wo gave
the authorities 20 per cent of the
winnings , Dee intended to go tlniro
hls winter , but was kept hero by a
aw suit. "
