FAKE INSPECTOR GETS $23 HAUL AT ROSS' HOME

Richmond housewives were warned by Chief of Police Goodwin today not to admit Into their home any man representing himself to be a water works, gas or electric inspector unless he displayed the badge all such inspectors are required to wear. Chief Goodwin was inspired to issue this warning because of the operations of a thief who has been calling at numerous south end residences representing himself to be, In turn, a gas inspector, water works inspector, electric wiring inspector, telephone repair man and insurance inspector. Gets $23 at Rosa Home. Mrs. Mary Ross, 402 South Tenth street, has reported to the police that this thief secured entrance to her home and took $23 which he found in a parse. In the morning the man called at her home and told Mrs. Ross that he was a telephone repair man. She told him she had no telephone. While she was at a neighbor's home in the afternoon the same man called again, walked into the house and secured the money. At another house he secured entrance by representing himself to be a water works Inspector. He secured . nothing of value at that place.

"Had these cases been reported ; promptly to headquarters we probably ; would have been able to secure this thief," Chief Goodwin said. "1 wish women would telephone to headquarters Immediately if any man who represents himself to be an inspector call fit their homes."
