ADANGIRoUs MAN AT LARsR-We noticed
N Wednesday, charged with having received
payment on check supposed to be forged, at the
Treasury Department, purporting to have been
signed by Major Brooke, Paymaster, United |
states Army, and also with having obi lined,
through false representations, $50 from parry
n Chicago 10 pay the expenses Of q lady gov.
.rness TO this city, whom Re mad advertised for.
Yesterday afternoon, the parties complaining
n Chicago refusing to prosecute, and the al
Il ged forgery turning out 70 be no forgery, the
prisoner was entitled to his discharge on those
charges, but Onicer 4NcD,vitt suggested that
before he was releasedhe should pay the ex-
penses Of the woman who had come to this
city on the strength of his advertisement.
He at once requested Detective McDevitt 70
him % his boarding house, on 18th
street, where he would procure money sufici-
ent 70 pay all her expenses. The officer accom-.
panied him thither, ana waitc1 outside while
S;errett went in. After waiting some time and
his man not appearing, the detective went into
the house and was surprised to hear that
his late prisoner had left through the back
door some moments before. Upon reaching
police headquarters the detective received
dispatches which, he states, show that Stsrrett
is an escspedconvIct from Massachusetts, and
that large reward 10 offered for his arrest.
