Diddleton mine scheme ends in arrest and losses
A tale from New York describes Charles Tubbs and Samuel P nephew of a lumber dealer who hatch a Wall Street fraud on the fictitious Diddleton gold mine. The ruse collapses after stock moves trigger losses, a jail warrant is issued for Tubbs, and Sam laments ruin after paying a debt to gamble on the ticker.
