"A gang usually works In threes lu raising checks, They nro adepts Judging from soma of tho samples of their handiwork shown by detectives.

A check drawn by M. J. MInear of Modford, Oregon, for $3.00, was raised to $30.00. "Ono check secured by a "spotter" had boon washed clean with acids nil except the slgnnture, nnd wob raised to $800.00. Tho bank pnld this chock without hesitation.
