NEW ARRIVAL DUPED
SYDNEY CONFIDENCE TRICK. Bj -'eleuraph—Prew Assn.—Copyright. Received Dec. 14, 7.35 p.m. Sydney, Dec. 14. An innocent New Zealand visitor, just landed from the steamer, met an entertaining stranger in Martin Place and, in the course of conversation, he mentioned that he had two ten pound notes of the Bank of New Zealand which he desired to change. The stranger obligingly undertook to secure Australian money for the traveller and entered a building outside of which the New Zealander waited a long time, till it dawneel upon him that he had, perhaps, been too trusting. The police are now seeking the obliging stranger and the visitor’s change.
