Magician’s box swindles man of $1085, held for exam
Joseph Sturm of No 4 Clinton Street was held in $1000 bail after being accused by Hyman Karp of swindling him out of 1085 dollars with a magic wooden box that promised doubling money. Karp, who sold his soda business to invest, later failed to recover the funds. Sturm was arrested by detectives on Houston Street and the Bowery.
