ing. ."»Hho Mr. Crush p»-omu*d to dJall be could.

In regard to the sta tement which h*isemlnated from Houston t ha t unices thoconcessions were granted the leaguewould be Impracticable and also conveying a hint tha t In taa t case the rewould be no a ll Texas League , Manager Ward said Saturday night tha t

the re would |>ositl\cly be an all TexasLeague, concessions or not. Mr. Warda lso said "Claude Kiley. owner of theHouston franchise . Ranted to postponethe mee t ing of the managers of thenew league unt il the middle of JanunryInstead of having it on Dec . 2 as planned. I pro tested very st rongly againstthis and have writ ten to President P.o-bte requesting him to write to thoother members of the league and statetha t tne-meeting will be held In Houston on Dec. 2 for the completion ofplans for the league ."

Manager Riley of Houston has beenknown to be opposed to an all-st^ieleague, as he would not be as able todirec t affair* with W. H. Ward andJoe Gardner in it as he has been do ingIn the South Te^as League . However, with the new league^formed. I t i-ley will also be In It. as it would beimpossible for (him to cont inue as am a na g e r in anything but the la rgestand best league in the sta te . He pre fe rs , howe-er, to remain In the SouthTexas League as It formerly wa»-Thls will practically be Impossible nowas the Beaumont team, which has beena fixture in that leaguo, has sold al most all of its players.

Officers In half dozen states are onthe lookout for one of the most dangerous swindle rs and forgers who hasoperated In the count ry for manyyears, and he has victimized people allth e way from Chicago to Tennesseean d It Is believed be Is now In Texas.

Sheriff Wood has a full descriptionor the man, together with a detailedaccount or bow be works, and Is re

quested to keep close watch ror thefellow and to make public the mannerIn w hich ho works. There is a la rgereward ror the a rrest or the man. Following Is the manner or Ihe man's operation which Sheriff Smith of Chicagorequests Sheriff Wood to make public:

How He WorksA short time after arn.-lng In th e

county , this man will look up farmsthat are for sale, usually some distance from the county seat. He te llsIhe fa rmer tha t he Is a widower andIs buying the farm for his son. or someother re la t ive with whom he Intends tolive . He asks him If there is a notary,public near the re who can acknowledge the papers tha t a re necessa ry tobe drawn. Learns the re is a nota ry a tth e vill.̂ s>e near the fa rm. He thenasks the fa rmer If he has an abst rac tof his farm and gets. If possible, theloan of I t . say ing tha t he wants hislawyer to look it over. He then persuades the fa rmer and his wife to gowith him to the notary at the villageand Induces them to give him e ithe r apower of attorney to sell the land forthem or lo sign an agreement to sellthe land to him upon payment of acerta in price , usually a very good one.This power of attorney or contract Isthen acknowledged by the farmer andhis wife, berore the notary, who signshis name to the acknowledgement,and places his seal thereon. After gett ing this seal, he e ithe r makes or hasmade an exact duplicate thereof. Thenhe goes to the county seat and callsupon some real estate man or lawyerand te lls him that he Is about to buythis particular farm. In some instanceseven t ak ing the fa rmer with him to

verify these sta tements to the lawyer.He then asks the lawyer or real esta teman to look over the abstract, or Ifthe fa rmer shou'd have none, then tomake ore , and to ca re fu lly examine therecords and s#e if the title Is perfect.This is done and every thing found allright. He then asks the lawyer orrea l esta te man to draw up a properdeed for the farm, and to.give the deedto him to take to tho farmer to get Itexecuted, or. If this Is refused, directsthe lawyer to mail the deed to th ifarmer, request ing him to go with hiswife before this part icu la r no ta rypublic, to have the deed executed andacknowledged. He then says, as he Ispaying cash for the -farm, th at Msready tnonry will be consumed, an athat, the re a re many improvements hswould like to make on the place. In th eway or bu ildings, rencee, e t a . hesldtspurchastng tarin^ snaohlnery

i ind livo•Melt, asks the , lawyer or rea l esta teman to t*taln for htm. a loan on 'hisland, which l« finally arranged for.

He then takes the deed, which hasbeen drawn no . If It la dehVerad tohim. or fa lling In t h i s . Inte rcepts thefarmer's matt, hy ge t t ing the deed oot

of the poatoffice or rural route mailbox. Having obtainru the deed, hethen goes to his hotel or stopplu<place. There he very" cleverly forgesIhe name of the farmer and his wifjto the deed, also Ihe rime or the part icu la r no ta ry to the acknowlcdsc-ment, and then places Ihe notarv's sealto Ihe acknowledgement on the deed.

ARer a suitable time, he again callson the lawyer or real estate man andshows him the de-J , Ihe identical deed

knonledged. He aga in expla ins tha the has paid the full purchase price Torthe land, and would now like 1c securethe loan asked for on the place, assoon as i«ozsible. *o tha t he can re turnhome and move his family on thefarm. Thereupon the lawver or realesta te man sends for the party whoIntends to loan the money. This party ,on his arriva l, toge ther with the lawyer or his own lawyer, agent o r banker, look over the deed carefully andfinding It. to all appearance.% regular,Ihe signa tures and nota ry sea l genn-Ine. makes the loan, takes a note forthe amount asked for. and also a mortgage on the ra rm. to secure the payment or the principal or the note andinterest. The deed and mortgage a renow recorded, then the money In cashIs paid over and this slick Imposle ran d torger skips the town.
