THE SPANISH SWINDLE. THE complaints which continue, with unfailing regularity, to reach New Scotland Yard, give proof that the " Spanish Swindle " is still rife. This fraud was described in this column in the issue of 21st October, 1898. It. has various phases, but what is common to all is a sum of money, either buried in the ground, or impounded somewhere on account of a debt, which, on being released, is to be divided between the swindler, or his " orphan daughter," and his dupe.
