Bubsequent tests showed the metal to be lead. Kitclibeca, Choma and Rutka were arrested in February. Tony Rutka, Hamilton, simila charged, wa‘s acquitted. Two policemen were present at the hearing from Brantford, where Rutka and Kielbaca are wanted to answer charges of cotaining $800 by false preâ€" tences from Dan Balaises, Staffordviile. In this case they are charged with leayâ€" law he would not be deceived. But this sale of "fake" gold has reached such proportions that apparently the authorâ€" ities intend to stop it. There were reâ€" cent cases at Kirklang Lake, Sudbury, Rouyn, Toronto and other places. There have been cases at Timmins but not very recent ons coming to court. There have been a couple of recent cases of this sort of sale of counterfeit "gold" in Timmins but the buyers avoided bringing tie fraud to the attention of the law, as they felt the authorities might make unpleasant enquiries about their activities in the past in regard to gold. Some time ago one buyer from the South was "stung" by having some fake gold unloaded on him. He got his own back, however, on his next visit here, by paying for his new purchases of highâ€"grade by the use of counterâ€" feit Uniteq States bills. These lills, however, did not get into general cirâ€" culation before their worthlessness was discovered. Some honest and innocent merchants, however, were defrauded, as they changed these bills as an accomâ€" modation to custoners who had them. The latest report of a counterfeit "gold" case is from Simcos, Ont. Last week at Simcoe Clement Kielbaca and Stanley Choma, of Hamilton, were committed for trial in Jun» on charges of obtaining $2230 by false pretences from Walter Lechowics, formerly of Windham township. Count@rfeit "gold" cases are apparâ€" ently becoming quite common, or at least this form of fraud is finding its way into the courts more than it did. It is a racket growing out. of highâ€" grading. In some cases in the Porecuâ€" pine in years past, highâ€"graders were not able to supply the demands of the "buyers," or felt that they were not being properly treated, and their proâ€" "buyers," or felt that they were not being properly treated, and their proâ€" test took the form of passing off gilded metal for gold. Sometimes, of course, this form of fraud did not have the excuse of being prompteqg by ungenerâ€" ous treatment by the buyers. It was simply another proof that there is not honour among thisves, despite the proâ€" verb. From Porcupine and Kirkland Lake, and also from Rouyn, the pracâ€" tice of selling brass filings or gilded lead for gold spread to the South, and to places other than gold camps. It is true that "golg bricks" have been sold down South for years, and that gilding lead and the use of brass filings as "gold" have been common practices in years past, But recently these forms of fraud have been revived as an offâ€" shoot of highâ€"grading. The common "gold brick" game would scarcely b> workable toâ€"day were it not for the suggestion usually put forward that the "gold" is being sold and sold cheap because it is highâ€"grade stuff, and so of dcubtful ownership, with the sellers anxious to get rid of it in case they are known or suspected in the business. Perhaps there shoulg be little symâ€" pathy for the man defrauded by sale of count°rfeit gold. If he were exerâ€" cising his honesty and ojserving the law he would not be deceived. But this Counterfeit Gold Cases Quite Common a fund is evidence of the admiration and reverence in which the gallant resâ€" cuers are held and ensures the most generous response to the mvntatmn to contribute. The heroism of the men who worked feverishly day and night in the ramâ€" shackle workings of the longâ€"abanâ€" doned mine has been beyond praise. It has been an epic example of selfâ€"sacriâ€" fice and endurance that the youth of the Dominion should never be allowed to forget. Our people have zseen given new reason for pride in their Canadian nationality. The rescuers risked life and limb without thought of fame or hope of reward, but their names should be associated with the moastâ€"prized traâ€" ditions of the nation and the men and their families benefit from the fund that is being established in their honor.
