He would not give any names, but he described the cases In detail. In one instance a policeman had saved up $3,000 which lie had invested In gilt-edged dividend paying securities. He was persuaded by a bucket shop operator to deposit the bonds as collateral for any investment which might offer. The bonds then were sold and used to defray office expenses, payrolls, etc. A janitress who had managed to save $1,900 through almost a lifetime of the most rigid economy gave her money to a bucketshop operator, who pocketed it withont even going through the formality of making the investment she had asked.

Both of these firms are among those scheduled to appear before the Orand Jury next week, and Mr. Simmons says he expects indictments in each case. "It should be remembered." he said, "that all operators who have lost money for their customers and who have had to go out of business are not bucketshop dealers.
