They Operated in I Cork Hill, Westvillo, Branch villa and Ctiarlotto Before They Were Caught. A dispatch from Charlotte, N. C., says a unique swindling game, farreaching in operation und involving prominent diamond importers was laid bare there on Wednesday, when J. W. Napier and W. P. Duke, from nobody knows wnere, were urioaieu on warrants sworn out by United States Postal Ofllco Inspector Hulla of Washington, and bound over by United States Commissioner Cobb of the federal court. One of the swindlers. Duke, collapsed, following the arrest, turned state's evidence and unfolded the operations of the gang to the commissioner without restraint. Briefly, the scheme was to order did inonds from a responsible concern c. o. d., subject to examination, substitute imitations for the real diamond and return the shipments to the Importers with flimsy excuse as to flaws in the stones. The gang operated successfully in Book Hill, Branchville, Westvilie, Charlotte and other neighboring towns and cities, using James Harris. an unaophistIca'.ed country boy, as a decoy. Asking examination of the gems the importers wore iod to ship the precious stones to Parris. When they arrived at the express office. Puke, who professed to be a jeweler, would show up, with professional care examine the in, and with some llimsy excuse turn then, back on the express company to he returned, taking care during the examination to substitute the false gems for the originals. The imitation stones were supplied by a house in Terre Haute, Ind Parris, whom the swindlers used as a tool, is an ignorant country boy, who can neither read nor write. He was discharged by Commissioner Cobb, while Duke and Napier were hold in bonds of $2,500 each. Duke made a full confession of the affair. The only victim of the pair disclosed during ibo preliminary examination was that of Daniel Lowe and Co., Salem, Mass. klLLIOl) THKKi: I'KIiSOXS. White Man ami Xrg;ro Killed Two Men and a Woman.
