The Hayman who waiked into the office of the state department of labor and industries and assigned his salary claim to Deputy Com: missioner Everest for collection was a very different man from the Hay man who talked to me a month ago when, in the guise of a pros- pective investor, I dropped into the cable company’s office in the Thompson building. NO GLIB ASSURANCE | There was none of the glib assur- jance that had marked his manner when he promised me 4,000 per cent dividerds and a lifetime job if I would invest. He was visibly crest fallen and it was manifest that he had given up all hope of sharing Nabatame’s castles in Spain—his only interest Hes in the $250 which he sunk in the company and in the $110 due him in unpaid salary, “It is my belief,” he said in a formal statement which he dictated tor Commitsioner Everest, “that the World Cable Directory Co. is not acting in good faith with the public—that they made many prom- ises and have lived up to but few of them. “Whether it was thelr original intention to live up to them or not I cannot say, but later develop. ments make it appear that it was not.” ‘| VETERANS OF THE WORLD | WAR in the employ of the Seattle a ardware Co. held their third annual reynion at the Hotel Butler Friday night.

He encountered numerous reverses and finally was forced to give up his business and accept a job as a clerk in a Bremerton store. Nabataine promised to make him his agent in Manila and told bim he could sail for the Philippines October 27. Overjoyed by the glittering pros. pect, Lobergast “Invested” $25, sold what furniture he could and gave away the rest; took his daughter out of school, packed up his things and gave up his home, and moved to Seattle with his family to await the ship. The bubble burst. Despite the “millions” behind the scheme (according to Nabatame), the company was unable to advance Lob regast his traveling expenses. And, perforee, he remained in Seattle And here he's been ever since. During all the weeks that he has been here, he has been able to ge only $25 in wages from the Japa nese “Ponzi.” Nabatame has, however, been forced to provide a shelter for Lob- regast’s family, and he has housed them in an apartment at 7i7 Marion et, where he himself tives with his white wife, Mrs. Polly ‘Taylor Nabatame.
