10 GRDUrS OF DETECTIVES TRAIL STOCK SWINDLER Report Koretz May Still Be in Chicago Is Watched by Police. By United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 19.—Two groups of officers, each armed with warrants, were on the trail today of Leo Koretz, most notorious of oil stock swindlers. Authorities were interested today in a report that Koretz is hiding in Chicago. An apartment in which he is said to have been seen as late as Monday of this week is being watched by a squad of detectives. Still believing, however, Koretz fled to some foreign port, the world-wide search continued. Meanwhile, a committee of four stockholders in Koretz's mythical “Bay,mo River Trust of Panama,” returned from an “inspec.ing expedition” to Panama, As they alighted from a train after a four weeks’ trip they said there was no “Bayano River Trust.” They said they found nothing but an “alligator swamp and none of the alligators spouted oil.” One of the committee invested heavily in Koretz's myth. He had resigned from a responsible position with a big Chicago packing house to accept a position as general manager of the oil project at an annual salary of $50,000. He said Koretz had paid him two years’ salary in advance—in oil stock. Koretz is said to have cleared between $10,000,000 and $20,000,000 through sale of his oil stock.
