TO BIS VICTIM Alleged Bunco Man Squares Case Under Noses of Po lice Detectives? Taking advantage of the temporary absence of the detectives and the dep uty district attorney from the room, Q. - MacLeod returned to H. Olson, who lives on Mississippi avenue, $3.90, the sum' MacLeod had obtained from Olson for a -. worthless lot near Spokane. Olson, by the -time the officers re entered the room, had decided that he could not swear to a complaint against MacLeod. The transaction took place In the district attorney's office yes terday afternoon. At 8 o'clock Mac- . Leod was locked up in the city Jail. . charged with vagrancy. According to the police, MacLeod has been doing a land office business in the sale of lots in a "wildcat" addition near Kpokane. He presented the card of the Northwestern Land & Townslte Co., 8171 Bprague avenue, Spokane, and earnestly assured prospective Investors that he could give them the finest real estate speculation ever offerd. All he wanted was $3.90, and because the sum was so small the number of buyers was correspondingly large. Although Olson cannot ' now swear to . the complaint which would have been lodged against MacLeod, it is under- , stood that before the' day is over an other man who considers himself ewln- - died will sign the complaint and Mac Leod's dealings in dirt will come to an . end. MacLeod was arrested In Lower Al- blna yesterday afternoon. Detectives Coleman, Tennant, Hellyer and Moloney have been working on thecase and hav 5 Ing found MacLeod they escorted him to the office of Dlrtrlct Attorney Cam eron, 'In the Ch?.:nber of Commerce building. Olson was taken along to sign the complaint. - Inadvertently MacLeod was given a chance to talk to Olson. He offered to return the sum Olson had paid him and " his offer was accepted. The transac tion was over in a minute and MacLeod could then meet the returning officers wun a.smiie. ' ine aetectrvea say that not only is the land which MacLeod tins been selling so cheaply entirely worth - less, but that he cannot give a clear title. MacLeod was evidently planning to make his stay In. Portland brief, but profitable, for he told his customers that they would not receive deeds for SO days. That interval apparently was relied upon to Rive him a chance to leave the. .city and let his customers mourn.

The rair planned to open a rooming- house here, as Jones had nearly 11,000, all In gold coin. They have been at a Washington street rooming-house pending their marriage and the purchase of their nevA home. Mis KrAuBe whose personal attrac tions wouldrnot turn the mind of an Or dinary man, suggested that the gold coin be exchanged to paper money for safe keeping. She took $760 to the bank yes terday afternoon. When she returned she told a terrible story of a man brushing against her and seizing the wad of currency In her hand. Although she made every effort to follow the thief, he escaped, she said. "No, don't say anything to the police about," she advised Jones. Another lodger In the house, however, persuaded Jones to make his story known to the detectives.

J The next movement of cattle prices will la nature of an advance. . So says Tom Benson of Benson & Qouly and .Mr. Benson's opinion is simitar o that given by other handlers, including Hunt & Lacey and 3. C- Lonergan. While at .the moment there is but little demand for steers, because of the overful condition of packers' pens, these supffiies held by buyers are gradually WOrklng off and them la lltlla .Kontinn but that the market will be doing bet ter even before the time for the arrival of the fed stuff. Generally speaking "the bulk of the present holdings of packers and killers, post them more money than they would be able to secure stocks at this time. Most of these steers were , purchased when cattle Drices were rather tlff .nH killers went Into the interior and bought when they- could not secure a sufficient amount to fill their wants In the ooen market. Most of thair mm. chases have consisted of steers and for mat reason alone tne demand Is small er In that branch of the cattle market than In others. Oows ana Heifers Tina. There is no weakness nor even dull ess in the demand for other lines of cattle. Both cows and heifers are in very good call and prices obtainable are quite satisfactory. The sheep market Is quiet with the tone holding about the same price, too. Hoes are steady with no chana-a in prices for the day. uoaay 10 norses were among tne early arrivals.
