to his swindling farm owners in this way. 
I have just received a check from the 
American Express Railway Company for 
claim on a crate of eggs that was dam¬ 
aged while in the hands of the express 
company in August, 191S. The check 
was $8.68, full payment for the claim.

them. 1 appreciate your service very 
much, but also realize that such work

I am sending letter and circular re¬ 
garding investment at Lomax, Ill. I am 
a poor man and need every cent I can 
make. Please advise me. Myself and 
family have $500 in bonds and stamps. I 
have one $10 share in “Lomax Investment 
Company” and one $10 share in “Lomax 
Oklahoma Oil Company,” fully paid and 
nou-assessable. I have not got anything 
from them yet. I would like to know 
about the whole works. w. a. m.

also shipped a crate of eggs the same 
time I shipped mine, and some of his 
were broken. He said it was no use 
trying to collect anything from the rail¬ 
road company, as we never would get 
anything from them. I told him I would 
leave mine with The R. N.-Y. He never 
got his pay. I got mine in full after

Payments on old claims are coming in 
gradually, and we hope all will he paid 
before the first of next year. There is 
no general system for payment. The 
express company takes up the claims 
that happen to be in hand. Their re¬ 
cords are hopelessly confused, and we 
are forced to duplicate many claims. 
This causes further delay, but we are 
working on all, both old and new, that 
exchange for stock in a bank which he 
proposes starting. W. A. M. will do well 
to consider his previous investments In¬
