Curious Capture of a Fsrxer.

Some time siuce, Deputy Superintendent
Nelson, OF THIS city received a dispatch from
he superintendent OF Police, at Louisville re-
auest'ng him to keep look out for a forger
named J. Straus, who, he had every reason 70
believe, wac soJournipg fl Chicago Due a..
tentlon was paid 10 the notification, and De-
CT territng out the supposed eulprit. Itsub-
sequently transpired that this man Straus some
monins ago acted an the capacity Of insurance
soitSi'9r ior the National Insurance Company,
OF 81 Louis. During his sojourn in the State
OF Arkansas, 1t is alleged, he collected q large
sum OF msney, for which he never took the
tIouo ie 10 MAKE adeq uate returns. He was fur
theJmoTe charged with forgery, alleged TO have
been committed in Louisville.
When superintendent Nelson received the
Gespatcn, ne oethought himself off neignooi,
named samuel Straus, most deserving clli-
zen, and TO him he comm unicated the lnforina-
ton received. He did SO under the impression
mat, owing 10 similarity OF names, tue FORMER
might attempt TO make the latter's acQusnr-
ance. But for this circumstance all search for
the supposed euiprit might have proved guilt
less.
Itso transpired that the man whose presence
was so anxiousIy desired by the police OF
Louisville, came to this city some time ago,
and made application st an insurance office on
Randolph street tor situation as solicitor
Being a smooth talker, his request was favor
ably received, and remarkable as il may seem
he so far impressed the Directors of the Com.
pany by means of protestatIon OF honesty. that
they advanced him the sum of 800. TINS was
Altogether contrary to their strict rules of bust
messy
Before Straus had been many days in the
city he discovered the fact that q narlssake of
his, III good standing as business man, re-
sided here. and, III speaking OF HIM to his en-
ployers, he claimed to be a relative. few
- days since the suspicious OF the president OF
the company were aroused from the fact that
the two namesake met, and although his EN-
.ployee dotted his hat In recognition, the other
paid no attention TO the compliment This led
the insurance man to make inquiries of the
chicago Straus. and he was not little aston
ished 10 learn that there existed not even an
acquaintance between them; but, when he
mentioned the name, the accosted party sus.
pected who the Individual might be- and hence
accompanied the insurance man to the central
police station. where the necessary Informa
ton was lodged. An hour subsequently, !.
Strnus was placed in jail. where he will re-
main until reg uisition from the Governor of
