AN ALLEGED FRAUD. - Ezra Jones, Esq., made complaint at the Police Office
yesterday against a party who sold him two shares in what was denominated
the "Crescent Moulding Sand Company." The certificate of stock was produced
in court, signed by "C. V. Woodruff, President," and "Chas. M. Martin,
Secretary." The shares 'were valued at $37.50 each, and money was procured
on two of them from Mr. Jones by the Secretary of the Company, Mr. Martin.
It now appears that there is no such company organized, and no stock has
been issued and paid for, except that purchased by Mr. Jones. The
transaction has the appearance of a fraud, and the little investigation that
has been made would seem to encourage the belief.
