Accused of 30000 Fraud Tells How His Money Was Placed
New York June 12 James Morton a salesman was arrested after a Philadelphia contractor McDonald posed as a potential victim in a wiretapping game. Morton was arraigned on McDonald's complaint as part of a larger case in which Thomas W. Ballew of Kansas identified him as part of a gang that took 30000 from the Kansas man last October. Ballew said the gang planned to borrow two 15000 notes for a brief race to cash, the horse Ace lost by a mile, and the gang departed Kansas hastily leaving him with further suspicions. Police believe Ballew fell victim to the Maybry gang of confidence men.
