however, did not think there had been

The Brooklyn Defalcation.
New York. Aug 81



RoDMAN LODGED IN JAIL.
W. 7. Rodman. the defaulting deputy,
and city treasurer of Brooklyn failed to oh
tain bail in $4,000 last evening and was
locked up. While at the station house yes
terday morning he remarked, Il am not
the ran who got the golden egg and al
though am in "A terrible position, still |
shall come out of this with clean hands. =
Late in the evening he seemed very down
hearted and greatly disappointed.
EoDMAN's APPEARANCE.
Evidently matters were beginning to look
serious to him and for the first time
since the suspension of the Trust Company
he began to realize his position, He spoke
freely on all subjects connected with the
case except that he declined to say who his
confederates wcre-just yet-but there is
no believing what he may do hereafter.
HIS STATEMENTS.
He did not admit that he was guilty of
any crime and thought the amount of bail,
$50, 600 enormously high. When asked to
make statement of all the facts connected
with the case, he said that he was in the
hands of his counsel and would be advised
by them. lie claimed that as the city had
been paid back all the money taken no
crime had been committed.
He did say positively that he would not
be made Escape When he does
make a statement he will make clean
breast of it and prove that lie was merely
the tool of others. lie said to other par
ties that Sprague had been to him before
his arrest and begged him to 20 away, to
go to Europe or somewhere else, that he
pleaded him but to leave Brooklyn, and
this he requested with tears in his eyes.
Rodman said he would do nothing of the
kind; that he would stay and see it out
He is said to have swindled Long Island

surer out of $4,000,
