them. They promptly decided that

| Commissioner Cardozo yesterday afternoon
| and swore out warrant for Vanderhoof's ar

HOW THE ARREST WAS MADE.
The warrant was placed in the hands of
United States Marshal McLaren for serving
between and O'Clock in the afternoon. He
| proceeded to the bank, but Vanderhoof had
| finished his days work on the books and had
gone down to Strong, Hackett & Chapin's
| wholesale hardware store on Fourth street. He
had left his overcoat in the bank, indicating
| his intention to return before going home
| The bank officers, however, kept an eye
on him and knew of his whereabouts
His stay was so prolonged that President
Upham went TO Strong & Co.'S and the two re-
| turned towards the bank, walking leisurely
up Fourth street and turning into Robert
street toward Third. Marshal McLaren
| had in the meantime got ont upon
the street with Cashier Bailey, and as
they came to the corner of Third and Robert
streets they met the culprit, and the marshal
placing his hand upon Vanderhoof's shoulder,
said,
Il have painful duty to perform. have
a warrant for your arrest"
Yanderhoof turned deadly pale ard ex.
claimed, ooh my God, this will kill my wife,"
The marshal then brought his prisoner to
the bank, and as the young man entered where
he had for twelve Years been trusted employe
there was deadly palor on his face, and in
dIcations of great mental excitement.
SUICIDE PREVENTED.
The marshal took him into the coat
room of the bank to search him, and Wander
hoof essayed to secure his overcoat. The
marshal kept too close watch upon his
movements to prevent his doing violence to
himself and the overcoat was instantly taken
frou him. Ia one of the pockes
was found a new five shooter re.
volver and two boxes of cartridges.
There were two cartridges in the revolver,
the hammer resting upon one.' AS he knew

though he was not advised of their decision,
he had reason to suppose lie would be
prosecuted, and 1t Ia thought he had
prepared to take his life If
he found he was to be arrested. His actions
gave strong presumptive evidence that this
was his intention. After few words with the
officers OF the bank the marshal removed him
from the bank to the jail, and at half-past six
he occupied felons cell.
FROM THE BANK To THE JAIL.
The trip from the bank, where this young
man has worked for over eleven years, was a
short and sad one. The marshal kept his hand
upon the prisoner, and when the two entered
the jail Office Sheriff Richter, who happened to
be present, was astonished and wondered what
it all meant. Vanderhoof's oyercoat was
some hat disarranged, and the sheriff, think
ing the young man had made mistake and
got little under tiic influence, exclaimed
"Helloi what's the matter nowe" Wander
hoof replied in kind of absent way, "They
have got me now" Us Marshal McClaren
said to the sheriff, clock him up" and The
young man was placed inside the Jail proper,
and was locked in.
INTERVIEWED IN THE JAIL.
To gentleman who went in to see him,
Vauderhoof stated that he had showed up
everything to the bank officers, aud had re-
turned to the bank $4,000. Besides
this he had gone to the books and point.
ed out where he had made wrong entries.
He said he made clean breast
of the whole business. lie said he had been
all the afternoon down to Strong, Hackett &
Chapin's store trying to fix the matter up,
and was greatly surprised to find the United
States marshal waiting for him at the corner
of Third and Robert streets.
When representative of the GLOBE called
upon Mr. Vanderhoof short time after, he
declined to say anything upon the subject, but
appeared very anxious that not
word of the misfortune that
had oyertaken him should get
10 his wife, as he knew it would kill her.
When the GLOBE man first went inside the
Jail proper, at 1880 p. M, he found the prison.
er seated at little, dirty, well-used table,
with cup of coffee and a piece of toast be-
fore him. Vanderhoof made no response to
the regret the GLOBE man expressed at seeing
him there under sucn circumsta noes, and
quickly drank the coffee and ate his toast
Finishing up that, the prisoner turned slow

pause. Finally the man of the GLOBE stated
| to the prisoner that the unfortunate matter

best to call at the Jail and see if he was desr.

| finally said that he had concluded not to

keep silent for the present, till he
could consult with an attorney. He
said he had not secured the ser.

had good case, and did not believe they

| would be better 10 have the extenuating cir

people could see what there was to be said on
his side of the case and thus get more just

to make any explanation, and insisted upon
consulting with counsel before making any
statement. Later in the evening a representa-
! tive of the GLOBE called upon him again but
he still persisted In remaining silent.
