Advances Made on Bills cf

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

against a 6 cents a pound duty. This
makes a good market for Sundale al
