Salamon Charged In Landswindle Arrest In New York
Frederick A. Salamon a 56 year old broker living at 345 West Street was arrested by District Attorney detectives Fitzsimmons and Flood on a swindle charge. He allegedly defrauded Knoxville lumber owner James J. Bryan of 65.01 in a land and loan scheme involving bonds and notes guaranteed by a nonexistent trust. Bryan, staying at the Hoffman House, identified Salamon in the Rogues Gallery and said negotiations shifted through Frederick A. Kramer of The Bronx. The properties passed from Kramer to Universal Lumber Co and then Southern Lumber Co with Salamon as president. Bryan sought possession of the bonds but was unpaid and learned the bonds were unguaranteed. Salamon had prior arrest years ago under the name Salmon.
