The arrest was Rainey, a member of the parl: police, who answered a summons of M Richardson, 36 Defrees street. She said she had just seen the man who had swindled her last Summer, and when Rainey accompanied her, they | came upon Hairston and another man engaged in conversation with a col- ored woman. The other man left Rainey said Hairston tried to bribe him The swindle is worked hy the “find- er” of a pockethook offering to share the contents—always a $100 hill—with the unwitting victim, whose only obli gation is to make change The victim then gets the pockethook and finds the con ts have turned into a piece of folded paper. @heHhob-Nok TWO LOCATIONS 1010 F St. | 1767 Col.
