Several young men in a city club cafe discuss laws favoring the rich. Gregory, posing as a ragged man, commits petty purchases and draws a crowd, then is shadowed by detectives. He is eventually arrested for possession of stolen money and counterfeit items before being released after clarification by well-dressed companions. The anecdote ends noting the poorer man’s limited privileges under law.
