Tlio Hir. : of ycstordny rontiilncil nn expose
of the peculiar ilnunclHl scheme of Miller ,
Uulfcr k Co. , by which It was prn | > oscd to
loan money to parties needing the same upon
individual mid unsecured notes , the only con-
dltlon prescribed being the udvunreniont of a
commission of two per cent to the firm ubovo
mentioned. The headquarters of the agency
was located In room No. 8 , 1515 Douglas
street , but it was stated that nonoof the re-
RIKHislblo purtlen could bo found there , mid
in fact , it WUB not known who they were.
The Ben was not many 'minutes
on the street before the cjunlor
member of the philanthropic linn was dis
covered. A short tlmo later ho made u state
ment. Ho was u clerk , ho said , In Frieder-
Ickscn's store on Thirteenth street , and Ills
name was Philip Uulfer. Ho had read the
expose In the lii ! : : uiicl was surprised that It
referred to his name and the room ho has
born occupying for n couple of mouths past.
Ilu could not understand how his nnmo was
used In the scheme , and ho did not know who
the man Miller was whose nutiic appeared as
the senior member L of the firm. Ho
had not had the circular Issued and
did not know who had gotten It outumlcould
not understand why any person should lisa
his nmnu in such connection , and especially
locate the headquarters in his apartments.
Ho was asked if he knew any party named
Miller. "Yes , " hu said , "there is a man of
that name working in Frlertorickson's , but
he has had nothing to do with this matter , at
least ho has hud nothing to do with me in it.
It is simply a coincidence that this circular
should have the name on it of n man who is
working in the same store with mo. They
might have put on the name of Smith or
Jones , or HOIIIU other person , us well as
Miller , for anything ho or I know about this
matter. "
Mr. Hulfcr denounced the schcmo and
claimed that the only way ho could explain
the issuance of the circular was the spite
work of a nmn living in Marshalltown , Ja. ,
with whom hu had had a laud deal up in Holt
county , In this state , in which Uulfcr had
made , ho claimed , about $1,000. The deal
hud so Incensed the other party thathe.sworo
to bo revenged.
Mr. Hulfer said that ho had received four
lottars from Colorado in response to the cir
cular , u copy of which was published by the
BEK. but tliose letters ho did not receive , ho
claimed , until after the expose had appeared
in this paper. These ho found under a mat
which lay inside the door. Ho
also admitted that thrco letters
had been received from his
wlfo and nil of these although they had been
inserted under the door by the letter carrier ,
as had been the others , singularly enough
wcro found qii top of the mat. Mr. Bulfer
could not explain how the latter missives had
gotten on top of the mat while the others
went beneath. Neither could he understand
or explain how the latter should have ro-
innincd so long without being discovered.
A HUB reporter called to see Mr. Uulfcr
nt his place of business yesterday by ap
pointment , but the latter had cone to dinner.
His employer told the reporter that Mr. Hul
fer had said ho had not received any letters
at all in response to the swindling circular.
This statement was corroborated by Mr.
Miller and a traveling salesman named Jur-
gciihcn. The last mentioned and the scribe
then went to Uulfcr's room and after several
knocks the door was opened by Uulfer. He
then showed the party the letters ho had re
ceived. Two of them wcro written In busi
ness hands , and the third was type-written ,
One was from John H. Hacon , Colorado
Springs , Col. , and bore date of the
17th inst. Tills asked for n loan
of fJ.OOO. Tlio second was from Andrews &
Chambers of Louisville , Col. , who also de
sired a ftt,000 loan. Tlio third was from S.
Hunchett , Empire. Col. , and asked for u
loan of 5,000. All of these letters were
written in excellent style , and each asked fov
references regarding the loan agents , each
declining to bite with their commission until
the reliability of the Hulfcr outllt could be
established. All thcso were in response to u
circular dated December 7. ,
Mr. Hulfor's wife had gone , the
gentleman admitted , as claimed
in the Hun , to Colorndr
Ho also admitted tlmt her going to the state
in which thcso circulars wcro Hying around
\vns an unfortuuuto coincidence , out hi
claimed n Tact that she had gone there be
cause she was ufllictcd with asthma.
If any moro loiters addressed to Miller
Hulfcr & Co. , arrive in this city they will hi
solved by the postoftlco oftlcials and returnei
to the writers.

preferred against him. First conies L. A.
Black , cigar dealer ut 2407K Cuming street ,
who swears that ho not only embezzled goods

him outright of $40 more. Then .lens Han

this up with n charge of ob
taining goods under false pretenses.
He says Buck boat him out of a & 4. > suit of
clothes by representing that ho was a partner
in Dlnc-h's Cuming street cigar storo. And
S'ct this is not all. Black further alleges that

reported on biindry occasions that lie had cer
tain orders for cigars , and as the dealers
wfcro right on his daily route of travel he
would deliver them himself and save the linn

A Pointer.
To the Editor of thoDr.n : Two years ago
nearly every ono said that business could
never climb the Farnain street hill. To-day
the "hill" is being "climbed" with the very
ilne-t business blocks in the city. A year ago
we advertised that the beat retail houses in
Omaha would , in less than live years bo on
Farnum between Sixteenth and Twenty-
third streets. Wo ui u now moro convinced
of this thnn ever , and property between
Twentieth and Twenty-third streets at j-,150
and -HOO per foot is "dirt" cheap. In Kansas
City reality on the best business streets , as
far out as the Farnam street school house , is
hold at * l'tx ) ami $1,500 per foot. A gentle
man idoiiliiled with Omaha was ottered
i'JO.OOO 00 for seventy-two feet that far out.
