THE SEA TTLE STAR, DEAD EASY GAM IS NEATLY EXPOSE An Interesting Conversation Between Two Crooks Overheard by a Star Reporter. Several days ago the Star prophested that while Chief of Po- Nee Reed was absent from the city, all bunco work would stop, and the town would be quiet This announcement proved to be true, and during Reed's ab- sence, not a single bunco case Was recorded on the books at head~ quarters. Last night, a Star reporter inspected several leading tendertotn resorts, In ong place two well known bunco artists were holding a heat- ed conversation, Unobdserved, the reporter got within earshot of the two men, and, of course, unintentionally overheard an interesting conversa- tien When the reporter approached, the taller of the two men was Speaking. “Well, so Bean and Bull are going to open up a ‘dig mit Joint’ in the ctty.”* “Why I thought he had the "Kid’ at Georgetown running « ‘cloth joint’? remarked the short man. “He had answered the long bunk, “but Bean and Tull have fixed up their differences now, and Bean intends bringing the ‘Kw into town and put him in the ‘mit Joint’ with Bull.” a good scheme,” r ‘ked the short man, “but what oing to do with Garriety “That's dead easy,” repited the tall bunk, “Bean has got Wil- gon to fix it, so that Garriety can be night jatior at the county ‘Jug,’ and that will stop his knockin @ that if ‘graft- Ing’ goes they can open up a ‘joint.’ ag there are only a few good steerers outside of MeKenale, Kelly and several Swedes.” The short man continued his inquiries, and then said, “I don't think that scheme will work, for the ‘fly bobbies" say they won't stand for any more “bunco graft. “Oh, that'll be an easy matter tc “Bean has been squaring for the ‘bobs by a biuff like that. He is dead on to the coon ‘graft,’ don't stand for his ‘Joint’ he will shanghai some of pera.” Have you learned when they intend to open their Joint, where?” asked the short bunk. ‘Bull wae out today looking for a ‘Joint,’ and eaid he could get one at alther the ——- hotel or —— Avenue hotel, but says he pre- fers to tay in the firet ward.” “That fixes nearly everyone except Jim White,” ebort bunk, “Why, he has been running a ‘bunk’ joint’ for along time. ‘Swede’ Thompson and another steerers.” Just at this moment several people came Into the room, and the tall and short bunks whose interesting conversation was Drought to a sudden stop, made their exit through @ rear door, un- observed by two city detectives who had appeared. The reporter stole out after the two chaps. They hastened down Washington street and went Into a Chinese laundry to* “hit the pipe,” although no opium smoking '# permitted in Seattle For a full half-hour the reporter stood in the shadow of a Duilding on the opposite side of the street, waiting for the bunke to emerge. They did not come out. and the reporter finally left them to dream their time away fn the oplum “Joint.” The interesting conversation abo recorded proves conctus- ively that the bunco men and certain officers are working har- montously together in Seattle at the present time. . they have been quieted with the prom ttle.” said the long bunk too long to be stood off and if they those : ce and spoke up the in North Seattle dioke are his SECSEEES SEES EEE EEE EE EAE EEE SESE EE EEE EERE E REE EE We ee SPSS EEE EEE EEE EE EEE EEE SEER EEE EEE E EERE EEE EEE EEE EEE EE EER EEE RAAKAAAEKARA REAR ARRAAEAHTHAAAA ee AAe STILL AFTER AND NOW NO THE REBELS) SEATS NO FARES Gen.
