Palmer and several other aliases, was. ordering goods very extravagantly for the Co-op. here, and I . representing himself as a full-fledged purchasing pur-chasing agent for the mammoth concern of this city. A car-load of tea was amon" the numerous small orders and the firm receiving the order telegraphed to the Z. C. M. I. asking if they should ship goods as order by "your Mr. Davis." The Co-op folks replied that Davis had no connection with the Z. C. M. I. and have since taken additional step3 to head off the bilk. In the meantime they expect every mail will bring in a host of invoices. |
