TWO BoYs IMPLICATED IN A SERIES OF GIGANTIC
| FoRGERIEs-THEY OBTAIN $4,000, BUT ARE
| CAUGHT IN THE THIRD ATTEMPT-Two OTHERS
ARRESTED ON SUSPICION.
William Fl. Cannon, aged IS, who was for some
time in the employ of Messrs. Jones, Smith e.
Sheppard of No. II Murray street, as errand boy,
was discharged recently. Soon after he and others
arranged plan to rob the firm, whose employ he
had but just left. He obtained number Of blank
checks on the bank where the firm deposited their
moneys, by forging an order on the printers for
supply, which order was readily filed, as the boy
gained these blank checks it is alleged that Can.
non filled up for $4,000, and forged the sigma
ture of the firm thereto He presented the check
for payment on the 18th ut., to Mr.. Charles E.
Bogert, paying teller of the Central National
Cank, corner of Broadway and Pearl street. The
teller supposed that young Cannon was still in the
employ Of the firm whose names were signed to
the check, and believing that the check was a
genuine issue, cashed it, and Cannon walked off
with the money in his pocket.
. His first attempt having proved SO successful,
Cannon, urged on by the others, who prudently
remained in the background, determined that his
second effort should take a higher flight, and the
signature of the firm was forged to a check for
the sum OF $4,000. 1t was presented at the bank on
the 9Th inst, and like the former one, was
promptly cashed BY the paying teller, Mr.. Bogert.
determined upon and fresh check for $4,000 filed
up and signed. Cannon evidently became nervous
aatthis stage Of the affair, and as he no doubt
feared detection, another youth, named James
Mitchell was sent to the bank with this third check
On his arrival there, Mitchell found the assistant
cashier OF the bank Mr.. VIM. H. Sanford, offioil-
ting in the absence of the teller. Before paving
the sum appearing upon the face of the check, the
cashier examined the paper and discovered it to
be forgery. Mitchell was Immediately taken
into the inner office, and Detectives Keleo and
Radford were sent for. They took young Mitchell
into custody, and from his confessions speedily
secured Cannon. IN '>''
The two prisoners finding themselves fast in the
clutches Of the law, made q free and full con
fession, enumerating the facts given above. They
also stated that there had been two Others en- |
gagged IN the plot who had encouraged them to |
continue their nefarious proceeding. Cannon |
stated as he left the bank that these men deceived
him. .I5 s.. -NN-'
The detectives, acting on this information, ar
rested, yesterday, John Casey, saloon-keeper, on
ne west side of the city and a young man named |
Alexander Gray, on suspicion Of being the two
persons spoken of by Cannon. All four of the
prisoners were committed for further examination
~ justice Hogan at the Tombs police court,
II appears that Cannon and Mitchell have been
wing at a very fast rate, being members of a
ocial club, known as the " Converse Club, whose
headquarters are at the Metamora saloon, in Ninth
venue, near Twenty-fifth street.
