Tor live and three-cent pieces. He worked
hard for five weeks in this hovel, when,
to his surprise, one day Madame Pologn-
lac alighted from carriage at his door.
The lady, mission was to warn him of
the extreme danger of the work in which
he was engaged. She told him
that her husband 50 and herself
had been arrested by United States Sc:
cret detectives, tried, and sentenced to q
term at Sing Sing for passing counterfeit
money. Tollomco was very much scared,
and from that moment refused to work.
Whereupon Pologniac brought him back
to New York, and gave him into the
hands Of the police, on charge of at
tempting to
ALLEVIATE HIS WIFE,
alleging that his business had been dam
aged to serious extent by the conduct
Of the defendant. Failing to obtain
bonds he was placed in Ludlow Street
Jail; and there, as has been already said,
he told his story to a reporter. Suisse
quently Talloneo de Chicvetta was tried
before Chief Justice Daily and acquitted.
Where he now is is unknown: but he
could, no doubt, be found by the police.
who can verify this narrative from his
own lips. In October, 1873, as our read
ers will remember, the barber
TORR1NO WAS MURDERED
IN, Brooklyn. - The murderer has never
been discovered Up to the present hour.
The detectives arrested man
named Caromanti> but as there was no
evidence to convict him ne was dis
charged. 1t was we|l-known that Tor
rino Was engaged in passing counterfeit
bonds and currency, land that the ''quecr'
ne operated in was perfect in execution
and finish. The most accomplished ex-
perts have hitherto failed to discover
where and by whom these extraordinary
fOrgeries were executed, and the facts
are row, for the first time, made public.
The capture of Wednesday last forms a
suggestive sequel to this revelation. On
the afternoon of that day, it will be re-
numbered, Detective Schraidt was sitting
III liquor saloon on the corner Of Bowcry
AMI Hester street: where the barber PAX
ui>hi and boy named Henry Myers
entered. The boy carried satchel, and
the man unsuspectingly treated the de-
tective to several drinks. By and by he
grew confidential. s'Do you want to mako
some money!" he -, asked Schrailt.
''Ihat's the very thing won't to
do, WAS the prompt rejoindcr. lin that
sa:chel there is 81 800 worth of United
States revenue stamps said Pakulski,
(which I will sell you for
FORTY CENTS ON THE DOLLAR,
and can get thousands of dollars worth
more. The detective accepted the
offer. and soon after offered a check on
the Bowery Savings Bank in payment.
The b :rber wanted cash, and the detec-
tive went on pretended errand to obtain
the greenbacks. Meantime the 'queer7'
vcnder had grown suspicious. and had IN
stiucted the boy to throw the satchel
into the ash barrel in the rear. Schraidt
meanwhile had secured the assistance of
Detective Sullivan Of the Ellridge Street
Station, and the two officers arrested the
counterfeit vendcr, and captured his
satcbci and its forgct! contents. His re-
lease from the Tom}s has probably pre-
vented the revelation Of the secret Of the
Torri'ie murder, as we'll as enabled dam
gerOuS man to 90 at large.
