The authori ties claim that his scheme was far and awny better than Miller's Franklin syndicate. In that he took In plenty of money and seldom or never paid out any except for running expenses. They have 60 complaints drawn up against him, and say 60 more are tiled, and that they can get thousands of them If needs he. The w die, as they Bay It was, has been in T 'ration for three years. Roper's business required a large force of clerks, stenographers atin typewriters, and he did an enor mous mall business. i It Is claimed that Honor Is the Realty Corporation company of New Jersey, the Realty Loan and Trust Fund com pany, tho Realty Loan and Title com- , pany and tho Four Per Cent Mort- gage company. The authorities Bay uiu curnimnius exisieu oniy uu paper. i although regularly Incorporated, and I that In each Roper was tho only per- Bon concerned. Inspector Snow says that Roper's scheme was alluring, and that his vic tims are In every state In the nation and embrace all classes. He says that oven churches and lawyers have been taken In by Roper. According to the Inspector, who has had personal charge of Investigating Roper's affairs, the four concerns were worked In pairs. Tho method Is al leged to have been something on this line: The Realty Corporation company sent out alluring circulars all over tho country. The stationery was most elab orate, and so gotten up as to deceive everi business men. Tho body of each circular stated that the company was In a position to obtain for any person with property a loan of any amount of money at A per cent, or oven less. Money was repre?ented to be cheap and plentiful In Newark, and not only good terms as regarded Interest were offered, but essy terms ns to repay ment and renewals. If the person re- ceivlng the circular should not want to borrow, he doubtless knew of some friend who did. Would he hand the circular to this friend, or send the friend's name to the company? when a response came asking for money and offering security a reply was sent asking for more particulars and calling for a fee of $10 to cover appraisement costB. In due time the victim received a communication ap- proving the loan so far as the Realty Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Don't Know it. How To Find Out.

Land nnd Title Fund. Hy the time this company executed Its fees the : victim had paid from $40 to $C0, ac- cording to the abstract of transfers, furnished by the would-be borrower. After tills plan had been worked out and every dollar possible had been ex tracted the loan would be approved. Then the victim would be taken In hand again. Tho details of tho bor rowing would be laid before him. It 1 was explained that every month tho money taken In from interests, repay ments, etc., was put up at auction un der rules similar to those of building , nml Innn nKsnnfntlmiq nml thnt Ihn money was loaned to the highest bid- ' ders. How much would the borrower be willing to bid? It wns left to him self, and an Idea was given him that tho money was easily obtained. The bidding occurred monthly nnd was open. Tlio bid had to be filled out, and cash to an amount equal to $5 on each $100 was required to accompany the bid. As there were few applica tions for less than $1,000, and most of the victims wanted several thousands, the returns were heavy. After tho passing of tho date when the sale of the money was supposed to take place the victim received n note. The company wns sorry, but he had been outbid by others, and every dollar sold hnd been disposed of at a better rate than he hnd offered. The name or names of thoso who were supposed to have bought the money were given. The company would hold the percentage paid In nnd bid the same rate again unless the customer wished to Increase the amount he would bid, In which event enough money to make up the additional 5 per cent of the whole must be for warded. Usually this brought in somo more money. This went on month after month until the victim made a demand for the return of his money. He then received blanks, which ho had to fill out. He would not get the fees back, but a percentage of the 5 per cent de posit would be returned, usually 10, lo or 20 per cent, at the expiration of 12 months, from the receipt of the blanks and bo on. The Realty Loan and Trust com pany npu the Four Per Cent Mort gage company are alleged to have been worked together in the same manner. When the officials swooped down upon the offices they took possession of everything In sight except the em ployes. Several mull bags run oi cir culars, iottocs and applications were seized.

Tho advance guard of General Grant's command, under Major Spenctt, arrived at Olangnpo, Snblg bay. during Saturday night, which plnce was occupied with llttlo resistance, the enomy fleeing. Major Speuce had an arduous march over the mountain trails from Dlnaluplhan. Sunday morning the Ualllmore and Oregon and n chartered transport ar rived at Olangnpo from Manila. The navy was disappointed to And tho army In possession of the place, which they had noped to capture A de tachment of hiarlnes, under Captain Myers, occupied the navy yard nt Olangapo, nnd will hold and occupy it as a naval station. The yard consists of seven new large buildings and somo repairing and machinery snops. all damaged by the bombardment of Sept. 23. During Sunday morning tho navy transported .Major Sponce's command from Olangapo to tho town of Sublg, five miles distant. The enemy was seen deserting Sublg as the troops landed, and the latter occupied It with out resistance. Thoy found the place abandoned by the retreating enemy, who tired a few shots. The Americans deployed to tho right and left of tho J town anu Kineu one oi tne enemy. Ooneral Grant and the remainder of his command arrived at Olangapo Sun day afternoon. He proceeded yester day to Sublg nnd Joined Major Spence. General Grant will move north along the coast and will effect a Juncturo tbe Twenty-tittn infantry, under oionoi Anurew a. uuri. who was re ported eight miles from Iba Dec. 7. , The enemy encountered In General ; Grant's advance fled to tho mountains nnd scattered. General Grant Is not ' garrisoning tho towns ho occupies. No casualties are reported In his com- mnnd. I Dispatches dated Conception, Dee. 2, from a press correspondent with tho detachment pursuing Agulnaldo, have 1 just reached Manila hy messenger. The 1 military wires on ail lines to the northward are continually cut by tho natives or are crowded with govern ment business whon working. According to these advices General Young wns at Condon Nov. 29, having three troops of the Third cavalry, Cunninghams scouts and Major March's battalion of the Thirty-third infantry. The nominal strength of his command had been reduced one-third by sickness. The horses were worn out and handicapped by lack of shoes. Tho infantry, after a march of n hun dred miles from San Jacinto, were shoeless nnd nil were living on the country. The troops had no ammuni tion except that In their belts. General Young, having been without communication with General Lawton for ten days and not knowing the dis position of the other troops or whether support wus being sent forward, re solved to keep moving. Having received Information that the insurgent General Tlno, with a thousand irton, was somewhere to the north, and that Agulnaldo, with Gen oral Pilar, Ave women and 400 sol diers of his faithful Bulacan battalion, was In tho mountains to the eastGen eral Young decided, on Nov. 30, to divide his forces. Ho proceeded him self toward Vigan, hoping to attack General Tlno, with his handful of men, and to prevent him joining Aguinadlo. Major Mnrch, with his battalion, and Cunningham's scouts started over the mountains toward Cervantes, after Agulnaldo, who was reported to have been there on Nov. 29. This column marched for 13 hours without food. The correspondent goes on to say: "Tho Americans found that the In surgents had Impressed the Igorrotes, compelling them to dig trenches and to construct pitfalls along the trails, which were fearful traveling at the best. One stream had to be forded J2 times In the course of a mile. These Inoffensive, stupid creatures, usually pictured as bloodthirsty savages, cheerfully turned to undo their own work and actually went foraging for the Americans, "Tho Ilocos region Is tho richest tho Americans have entered on the north ern campaign, -ine people are pros perous, Intelligent and more than half civilized. They have excellent houses and carry on flourishing industriee. Many of them are evidently rich. Sev eral towns received the troops with bands and tho ringing of church bells. Cattle were killed and houses were opened to tne troops. "How much of this display was sin cere and how much due to a desire to propitiate tho conquerors It would be hard to say, Thero were evidences that similar hospitality had been ex tended to Agulnaldo. The people do' scribed him as cheerful, hugging the hope of salvation through American politics, and everywhere trying to ro tain support by proclaiming with seeming sincerity that Die United ptates congress would certainly recogi nlze the Independence of the Piltplnq repuDiic in uecemoer, "Many or tne natives exhibited notes from Lieutenant Glllmoro and other American prisoners, In which the recipients were commended to the Americans on the score of kindness shown to the writors. There are 27 Americans with Lieutenant Glllmore, Another party of 14 were taken through Ilocos a week ahead of Gen eral Young. Thoy were ragged and dirty, and the natives say some of them were urged forward at the point or the bayonet," Prevented a Tragedy. Tlmelv information elven Mrs. George Loos, of New Straltaville.
