14 PLAIN STRANGER Advances Made on Bills cf Lading That Are Now Be lieved Forgeries. FRAUDS REACH THOUSANDS Credit Fir. Established by Sales of JIj and Operator Then Tarns to Grain Kscapo Resembles Kecent Seattle Case. What appears ito be one of -he cleverest bunco irames that bas been worked In Portland for some time cams " to lisht yesterday when flour millers and commission men complained to the police that they bad been fleeced of several thousand dollars. The man charged with the bunco frame and for whom a warrant has been Issued was known to them as C B. Brooks, who Induced them to advance 75 and 0 per cent payment on bills of lading on train supposed to have been shipped from points In Idaho. A full account Ins; has not been made and it Is de clared that Brooks pot away with any where from HuOO to 17000. Brooks came to Portland about three weeks ajto anJ asserted that he rep resented farmers on the Oregon Short Line in Idaho, particularly In the dis trict of Twin Falls. He said he was dealing; In bay and jrraln. He deposited a little money in Portland banks, per suaded Portland dealers to Identify him. svnd obtained a good standing. His first operation was in hay. Several firms bought hay of him and It was d.-ll-ercd. These transactions Inspired confidence and when be begran selling grain his Integrity was not questioned. Milling Company loses. Perhaps the heaviest loser In Port land Is the Albers Milllns; Company. It bought oats, paying so per cent on the bills of ladlnn. which amounted In all to about $liOo. The icraln has not been delivered, and the bills of lading are decided to be forgeries. Brooks left the city last Saturday, but before fcolna- sold 100 tons of hay to the Albers illlltns; Company for 111 a ton. to be shipped from Twin Falls. Idaho. The hay has been coming In. but In view of the alleged grain fraud, the ques tion now confronting the Albers Com pany, as well as other firms that have received consignments through Brooks, is whether he has paid the farmers In Idaho. If he has not done so It Is thought that Brooks baa obtained sev eral thousand dollars more than the figures en his araln dealings aggre gate. Brooks lived at the Alexandria Hotel, at Tenth and Alder streets. He left the city Saturday, saying he had busi ness In Seattle and would return In a few days. The bills of lading were said yesterday to be fraudulent, evidently having been forged. Leaving Carefully Timed. Captain of Detectives Moore said last night that a similar bunco game was worked on Puget Sound about this time last year, and the operator got way with several thousand dollars. In the Puget Sound case, and apparent ly in the Portland case, the operator appears to have timed his work so that he could escape and have several days' start of the officers before ex posure. As Brooks has been missing since Saturday. Detectives Day and Hyde have difficulty In obtaining a clew as to which direction he went. It was also learned last night that Brooks withdrew the small deposits he made In the banks, so that be haa ap parently been out nothing but bis liv ing expenses while In the city. None of the business men who dealt with htm credited him with such talent. He was regarded as a plain sort of man of average intelligence and not pos sessing unusual business qualifications. THREE SOLDIERS ACCUSED Woman Says Men Ilobbrd Gas Meter In Ilooniins-Uoase. Teterttves CradJ.ick and Ma!!ett went to Vancouver yesterday afternoon and arrested Charles V. Murray, of Com pany Y of KnKlneers. charred with rob bing a gas meter at C Sixth street of $7. and Jimrj l Kennedy and Frank Walls, members of the same company, who are charged with receiving a share of the money. Mrs. Adeila Bean, pro prietor of a ronrr.tng-house at C. Sixth street, suspected the three soldier of committing the crime and went to Van couver Barracks and Identified them. The commanding officer ordered the soldiers sent to the guardhouse and Informed the Portland police. While they were In Vancouver Detec tives Cra.i'lork and ilallett arrested Kenneth Blair, who Is wanted In Port land on a charge of larceny by bailee. Marx B!-h. Jewelers, are the com plainants. They said that Blair bought d a men. Is of them and Ift the state owing them t-X Illair said he gave the diamonds to a yonr.g woman and that he Intended to pay the amount when be got the money.
