A Fenian Denied Burial from a Catholic
Church.
From the Troy Times, January ~
Bartholomew Higgins, a promising young
lawyer OF Waterford, WAS buried yesterday
de died Of consumption, after a short illness
The deceased had a large circle OF friends, who
sincerely mourn his early demise. He w;1 a
pIomlnent fenlan-a circumstance which eI-
cluded his remains from being received in the
catholic church of the village. Arrangements
had been made tor the funeral services in the
church, when telegraphic dispatch was re-
not known; but as the reverend father in
charge, who was a warm friend of the deceased,
declined TO open the building for the ceremony,
il is supposed the bishop refused his sanction 70
the occupation of the church for the purpose
stated. From this il would seem thai the
heads of the Romish Church are determined in
their opposition TO Eenianism in this country
ROBBERY OF BANK PoRTER-An rnge-
nious and successful robbery OF a bank parier
was committed in New York on Friday last
The circumstances run as follows:
Officer Herman Stellges, OF the Twenty.
eighth Precinct was on patrol duty in OarmIne
street, when he was accosted by a man attired
in a full SUIT of the regulation Metropolitan
Police unIfofm, who informed him that he had
been detailed to effect the arrest of a noted
counterfelter, and that probably the PATROL
mans assistance would be required. Believing
the statement, Stellges agreed TO lend any
assistance required. While they were con-
Yersing the unknown man directed the officers
attention 10 a man who carried a tin box on his
arm, passing down the street the opposite
side, telling him that was the suspected man,
but that II would not do 10 arrest HIM then, as
he was merely going to a house TO obtain a
fresh supply Of counterfeit monty, and that be
would return with 1t in a few minutes.
Halt an hour had scarcely elapsed before the
man returned, still carrying the tin box. When
he came up 10 the officer, he was at once ar
rested on the charge Of having counterfeit
money in his possession, which was however,
stoutly denied by him. On his making some
slight resistance, the strange officer slipped a
pair OF handouts over his wrists, telling the
house and have him locked mp, at the sans
time saying he would take the box and It's con
tcnts oN ct 10 the headq uarters and make a re-
port. The patrcIman, who lie a German. and
tut recent addition 70 the police force, very
!OoliShly complied with the instr actions Of the
unknown man. As matter Of course, when
the officer reached the station house he could
not substantiate the charge, and the prisoner
was. for the first time, allowed TO make an e1-
PLANTATION.
He stated that his name was Thomas uinn,
and that he had been, for over five years, In the
employ of the Greenwich Savings Bank, stu
ated on the corner Of WaYerly place and 9th
avenue. That he had been in the dali habit OF
proceeding 10 the Green wich Bank Of this city,
situated on the corner of Clarksou and Hudson
streets, for the purpose of making deposits Of
checks and cash, and receiving for hIs bank
large sums Of money in small denominations
for paying over the counter. He also stated
that there was in the cash box, at the time OF
his arrest. $1,000 in United States Treasury
and National Bank notes, in ones, twoe and
f1yes.
SO far no success has attended the efforts OF
the police to discover the successful peraona-
tor of Metropolitan policeman, he having
covered his tracks so well that the scent has
been lost for time. The detectives, however,
express an unwavering belief that their inves-
LEGATIONS will result in the discovery and arrest
OF the thief, if not in recovering the stolen
bonds.
