AN OLD TRICK AT FoReERY.-Last Saturday
q respectable looking man called at the carpet
store of ]. NJ. Evans, No 3l7 N. Second street,
and after looking at some carpets, selected one
pattern which came to $25. AT the same time
he pulled out about $50 from his pocketbooR,
and said that as he did not want to carry so
much money with him, and he was q stranger
in the city, ne would be Obliged to Mr.. Evans
to keep possession OF it for a short time. That
gentleman did So and yesterday morning
man named Lewis Botherton was sent to the
store to get the carpet, and after payment of
S25 out of the $50 left with Mr.. Evans, he asked
that gentleman to give him check for the
balance, A check for S55 was given to him on
the Northern Liberties Bank. The same after.
noon a check was presented to the teller OF the
bank of the Northern Liberties for 500. 1t was
Immediately detected as a forgery and payment
refused. Shortly afterwards Botherton was
arrested He has been stopping at the tavern
at Fortieth and Market streets, West Philadel-
phia, and it is supposed that the object of his
leaving the money and obtaining the check
was to obtain the signature OF Mr.. Evans
Botherton had q hearing before Alderman
Toland, and was committed in default OF $1,000
bail. He is not known as q PROFESSIONAL, and
1t is doubtless first attempt, although the for
gerry was pronounced by Mr.. Evans as q very
good imitation.
