Two Rahway Men Swindled by Five Stranger Promoters
Rahway proprietors J Rahway June-Ridney Hulsizer of the Hotel Wyndham and William T Weber, a former employee of Kips Department, were duped on May 13 by five strangers canvassing for New York American subscriptions. One man posed as Bai Carr and cashed a $15 check after persuading Hulsizer to endorse it. Weber also cashed a $15 check bearing the same signature. Additional details indicate the swindle involved premium silverware and a company called AL Reworker. Affected employees, including Fannie Harvey, tendered resignations. Local civic groups reported events and planned activities include Young Men’s Christian Association anniversary exercises, Home Reading Club president’s visit, and a German Presbyterian Ladies’ Society meeting. The city’s parade and social events continued with the Twenty- Century Drum and Fife Corps and a Hungarian Society ball at Washington Hall.
