J, OVERTON PAINE SUED BY WOMAN Mies Margaret Clark Asks Court \ for Money Given Him by Her- self and Others in Wall Street Pool CLAIMS SPECULATION WAS TO BE PROTECTED. With Her Women Friends Teacher in Girls’ Seminary Was Let'In on Steel Common at 40 as a Good Thing. Miss Margaret B. Clark, of Brooklyn, | hes brought sult ‘against J. Overton Paine, the broker who failed last spring, Asking $5,660, which Miss Clark says is fue aeveral women who formed a pool to make money in Wal! street and who intrusted their money to Paine. The sult may end in an investigation dy District-Attorney Jerome, as it ts charged by the plaintiff that Paine transferred the $0,650 to personal in- Aoresta aside from the brokerage firm through his confidential clerk, Miss Emma Haze! Greening. The plaintiff lives at No, 601 Pare place, Brooklyn. She began speculation with the Paine syndicate early tn 1902, and alleges that between Feb. 1 and Nov, 1, that year, she gave Paine $5,700 to be used by hin as a broker for tho purchase and sale of stocks, Miss Clark said yesterday that tn Feb- ruary, 1902, she took her first flyer in ‘the market with J. Overton Paine, buy- ing Steel common at 40. She was then fan instructor in physical culture in a ladies’ seminary, and through her, sev- eral wealthy friends were made ac- quainted with Paine. He promised to recommend to them good securities for investment. ‘Phen Paine told us that we could @o. better dealing in stocks on a margin,” added Miss Clark, ‘He as- sured us he had inside tnformation and would protect us. That Is how we began speculating, ‘Then, after we had given Paino checks in many sums from "$20,600 et one time to as low’ as $700 at others, Paine went South. I trted while he was South to get a settlement at his Mice, but failed. I iarned later that J. Overton Prine, had, without my knowledge, transferred all our accounts to the J, Overton Paine Company, 1 {was told further that m $20,500 check given to him|by a woman associate of Imine had been diverted to an automo- Bile factory he owned.” Nalthar Paine nor Miss Greening vwould statement, but jGeorge FR.
