Meyer Regolskchen, young German mer-
chant, arrived here three weeks ago, with $1,000
in gold and letter of credit on a Chicago house
for $1,000. On the voyage he became intimate
with Macmillan Schroeder, who was with him
during his stay here, both of them drinking
heavily. AT length, after three days OF such
conduct, they left the hotel in the morning for
the depot of the Erie railroad in Hoboken. This
was the last seen of RegOlskchen by any one
save Schroeder. Two hours after, Schroeder
rushed into Hubner's hotel and said Regolsk-
chen had left him. He was very much excited.
He said that Regolskchen, on arriving at the de-
pot, went to purchase the tickets, and that he
waited outside taking a look around the coun-
try. Thinking that there might be crowd pur-
chasing tickets, he did not go into the depot for
an hour TO seek Regolskchen When he did go,
he could not find him. Such was Schroeder S
story. Regolskchen, when last seen, had the
greater part of his $4,000 in gold, his $1,000 let
ter of credit, the baggage checks, and the rail-
way tickets. The detective theory is that he
was murdered.
