The initia! arrest of one of the men who ts supposed to have been doing the work was made this morning by Po- liceman Helms. John McDonaXl was pointed out as the man who perpe- | trated the swindle and he is now @ prisoner in the city jail. ‘The swin- icy though # #mali one, was cleverly wotked and not only parted the vic- thn from his. money, but greatly humiliated him, Roanen recently arrived in the city and intended to take a trip to San | Francisco, He made this fact known | |to several persons, and there was where he made his mistake. Crooks heard that he was to make the trip and at one to fleece him was As he was about to leave the city there was apparent- | ly little chance of the swindlers ever having to answer for the offence, Easily Taken In The olly tongued gentieman ap- proached Roanen and casually asked him if he was going to make the jtrip south. Roanen answered In the affirmative and the stranger told him that a man was a fool to pay the full fare for passage when it could | be scoured with greater accommoda- tions at a great deal leas figure. The stranger finally made proposition that he would secure passage for Roanen for the sum of #4 and that he would want for, noth- ing on the trip, Seeing a chance t ve a few doliars the traveler con sented to the deal. The scheme was oanen down to one of the ts on which the stranger had a number of friends and to get him passage with the purser or steward Roanen was introduced to a bogus don one of the steamers on the waterfront that was going to San Francisco and then the stranger left him. Just as the boat was about to pull out some one asked him for hia | ticket. Of course he had none and | was ~romptly escorted to the wharf while the steamer pulled away. Early this morning Roanen saw a man whom he at once recognized as his erstv:hile friend. He told his story to Policeman Helms, and the man he says «winded him was ar-| rested, At the station he gave the name of John McDonald, and said he was a sailor, Roanen left his mon. | ey, 185. at the station, for fear he would meet more friends: A RECORD BREAKER The largest bank clearings. of the THIS BRAND ON THE SOLES OF EVERY PAIR the Women’s All Hand Made Comfort Shoes In button, lace and congress, all widths and sizes, patr..@2.560 Women’s Hand Sewed Com- fort Shoes In button and lace, widths, very flexible D and sale price oo BLS “Grover's” Soft Shoes for Tender Feet Are so carefully made by hand ‘and so weil adapted to sensi- tive feet that they win friends; your corns and bunions are cured as if by magic: try one pair; our price is, a pair one B8L75 Here Is a Snap ses Boys’ Extra Fine calf 8 In Blazes 244 to GY, with Hngllsh Backstay; would be considered by some good > at or $2.50 a pair We bought them cheap, You can Buy them while they last at, a pair $1.5 Box- (present year v fe | which amounted to $1,009 |day's clearings for the 8 were follows pokane, $347.8 540° Seattle's bank cle year show a tniform creave which ff tt continues make an increase of $44,000,000 over 1901, tee) TIRED } | * WOMEN | |sale of Ladies’ Shoes this) noys' All Solid #1 iS nw Only Paper tn Seattle That Dares to Print the News # # WEATHER FORECAST.
