MA(‘RAMF LACE. B, D, Garret Shownnp by Isaac Syl vester. | To the Bditor of Tuk ek In a recont issue of Tie Brr appeared a communication from one E, D. Barrett, in which he tries to shoulder this Mac- my shouldors, dling Iadies in this city, and then try ana hide behind him, of a man this E. D, Barrett is, that 1 should try and hide my villainy behind. 1 shali give a brief review of the Barrott, and also the facts as they exist man in regard to this Macrame business, and how I came to be mixed up in it In the firat place, Barrott claims to bo in this the first a doctor and to have practised state for some ten years. But authentic account we have of him doing business, is several years ago, when he induced a certain gentleman, now in the city, to go into partnership with him and start a shirt factory. After running the business some little time, and inducing his parter to invest all his money, Mr. Barrott left very suddenly, but leaving numerous others to mourn his sudden do- parture. Wo next hear of him in Chica- go, engaged in the Macramo lace business on Twenty-second streot, and after swin- for a partner. His reason for wanting a partner is thie, After having rented rooms suitable for his business,an advertisement appears in one or moro of the papers reading as follows: Wanted: 100 ladies to learn light manufacturing and work at Wages from €4 to 814 per week. OF courso thore is a rush for a week or ten days, when somo of the ladies having finished their instruction discover the fact that no matter how hard they work they can not earn over 40 cents per day, about this time is where the partner comes in handy as Barrott has got the cream of the business and wishes to throw the respensioility on some one clses’ shoulders which is dono in tho following manner: The advertisement for a partner is wenerally as follows Wanted—A partner with $150 or § cash, Busincss established and paying H00 Address E. {D. B, care of oflice in which the ad appe And there is always plenty of answors to such an adverasement, and out of a lot he erally secures one., The partnership cou- tract is drawn up by Barrett and tho way lie creeps out of the business is through the following clause which appears in every contract he has made. “Whenever either partner becomes dissatisfied he shall, by giving the wther (24) hours written notice, dissolve said tnership, and shall after expiration of said time, divide all goods and money belonging to said firm, equally between each other.” As will be readily seen from the foregoing he is able to dissolve and skip out before his partner is aware of the scheme that ho has been roped into. The partnership is hardly formed and papers signed before the innocent Bar- rett gives him notice to dissolve. He will then get all tho money he wants out of his victim, or if he cannot get him to buy him out will give lim the entire business, and then skip out leaving his victim to discover that he is cleverly swindled and get out of it the best way he ;can. He could not sell the entire business as that would naturally arouse suspicion that something ‘was wrong, a man wanting to sell a business realizing so much profit on so small a capital. Now, after having shown the manner of operations we will proceed with Mr. Barrett’s doings until he reached Omaha, In his article he says he came from Chicago to Omaha. That is false for after leaving Chicago he was brought to light by the Des Moines papers in_which the ladies of that city published a card exposing his swindling operations there, and as a result is compelled to leave. He next turns up in Omaha, getting ofl the train and is met by an ‘officer with a warrant for his arrest, sworn out by one of his numerous victims in this city who got word of his coming. He settled the matter, and others finding out that ho was hero got after him and Barrett said if they would give him a chance he would settle with everybody as he had been making money and "had come to Omaha to stay. He secured rooms in Crounse block and the usual advertisement appeared in the Bk, Now comes another gentleman un- known to fame but prominent in the macrame lace business, supposed to ho & marble cutter by trade. But we find him Mving here off his mother-in-law since November, 1883 until April, 1884, too lazy to work, too honest to steal, but able to sponge enough off his friends to keep himsclf soaked with rot gut whisky. Barrat is an uncle of this noble youth, but it seems that these two have not spo- ken to each other for two years. Pink- ham told me he hated Barrett and his Lat us sce what kind | loarned had first to sign a contract, of | which the following is & oxaot copy.

And itis at tho option of the said L. A. Barrott as to the amount of material furnished to the said price of said | al to thy said | this contract shall bo null and void said Any one can seo at a glance that after a lady has signed the above there is no redress, Now Mr. Barrett hasa very plausible story for having these contrac and diverts their attont‘on from the main clauso, which is,*§3.00 is paid for tuition fee and no other consideration whatever,” by saying that it is to protect the woman a8 woll as himaelf, and keop any one from making the work except those he taught, as they would manufacture tho good and put them on eale Lere, and that would ruin his business as he_dealt o xelusively with the wholesale trade —with Marshail Field & Co, Carson, Pirie & Co., and others in Chicago. Tho facts are that ho does not sell a single article either wholesale or retail, and | defy Mr, Bar- rott to produce & single bill of sale for theso goods from either Marshal! Field & Co., Carson, Pirie & Co., or anyono else, cither wholesale or rotail in Chicagy or elsewhere. 1 had been in the business but a short time when I saw that 1 had beon roped into a good-sized fraud, but how was I to get out of it? Barrett states that he stayed here two week d saw that Sylvestor furnished material, ote., not mentioning Pinkham's name in his eagerncss to defame me. Barrott did stay, but not two weeks; mor did ho stay tosee what 1 done. He would have stayed longer if he could. The facts are that him and Pinkham wos trying ev scheme they knew of to throw the whole responsibility on me. but could not do it a8 I refused to buy DPinkham out and would not accept the business as a gift. About this time Barrett had to skip out. self out of jail, as his former partner m the shirt business was crowding him for a sottlement. Barrett told this man the evening before his sudden oxit that he would settle the next morning but not to call at Crounse's block until after ¢ o'clock as he did not get up vory early; But it seems he broke his custom ot up early enough to take the St. Jos- eph train at 9 o'clack. The reason for telling his man not to call until after 9 o'clock is apparent at a glance. After Barret's sudden departuro 1 made Pinkham a proposition as the only hon- orable means of getting out of the dis cloge the rooms in Cronnse's hall, let all that were under mstructions finish at her house, Pinkham and myself to furnish all the necessary material, and all that had finished bring their work thero, receive their pay and also more material if they wanted 1t. This, Pinkham refuse to do on the ground that his folks were not to be trusted. That they would steal his eyos if thay got & chauce, and so the matter stood. Barrett had been corpelled to skip out and 1 had Pinkham, his right hand bow- er, fast. A couplo of days aftor Barrett's hasty flight, Pinkham recoived a tele- gram and said it was from his father who was in Shelden, Towa, and not expected to live. Tsuspicioned that it was a lie for my benefit, and that the telegram was from Barrett, and refused to let him go until the business was settled, Pinkham then got orge Ditzenber- ger (a young man that had learned how to make the work) and said he wanted to buy us out aud would give $150 for the businese, butdid not have the ready money, that his parents were well fixed and could got the money in six- did not care about any ono eclse into the eame had got into myself and asked zenberger if he knew what he was dc. ing, ho said he did that, he had not b around thero and learned the business tor nothing so I consonted to sell, The next thing Pinkham does is to huy two tickets for St. Joseph Saturday afternoon and take French leave Sunday morning, Tfound out after he had gone that I was correct about the telegrams, and obtained enough proof to show that T had been only another of the numer- ous macrame lace victims and wrote to E. D, Barrett telling him that unless he straightened this matter up with mo I would have him arrested, and did not oifer to keep still for $25. 1 consulted ty days time, I drawi wife worse than, and Barrett said it was only for his (Pinkham's) wife's sake that he would do anything for him as he was u dirty whelp Amy would rob his best friend. But I think that was for my special ben- efit as will aftorwards be shown, My first acquaintance with Pinkham was four yoars ago when I worked with him in the U. P. shops and he was considered'| to be honest and all right. He quit there and I had seen him but two or three times since until I met him on the street about four years ago. when he said you are looking for, I've got tired of working hard. 1 have got a good thing, am working for my uncq getting $30.00 per week, but I hato him worse than poison, and if you will put in $100,00 with me I start into this same buosiness my uncle is working at, and then procwd»«{ to partly explain, But I declined his offer. The next two or three days I saw him but he could not induce me to go into business. Finally he came one day and said he had a splen- did chance. His uncle was going to sell out and go to Denver for his wife's health, and would give him an opportunity to make something, but he did not have money enough. If 1 would put 875,00 in with him and both buy him out. 1 finally coneented to do this. Pinkham representing to me that the goods were sold to wholesale houses in Chicago, and 100 per cent, was realized on their mana- facture. Since they have left I found out that it was a conspiracy to beat me, and that Pinkham did not put in a cent. Barrett made by his operation here $569, 80 scholars at $3 00 apiece, and $7.600 he got out of m just the man I'm 201 ' Heiters, Two “ 180 4 Steers, One 220 ¢ Heitors, Oue l.'
