There arrived in the city yesterday morning
Mr.. E. j. Hall, wellto-do farmer of Kendall

MIR. Wolf. The gentlemen proceeded direct to
police headquarters and told the following story:
On the 5th of October there arrived at Ken

duced himself as Oscar Osborne. He called at
the Hall residence and claimed that he was dis
family related to the family. The farmer and
his wife received the young man, and he took
up his abode with them.
The day following his arrival at the town he
called on the Baptist minister, and, producing
his credential that he was minister Of the
church, asked to be introduced to the congrega-
ton. The minister took liking to the young
man, and on the following Sunday introduced
him to the congregation,

A GREAT MERCHANT.
Something About the Enormous Business
Carried on by the Late III. b. Claf1in.


Carried on by the Late III. b. Clafiin.
New York Letter in Philadelphia Telegraph.
The death of II. b. Clafln caused a shock in
our mercantile community, not q word had
been said concerning any impairment of his
health. With him and A. T. Stewart have de-
parted the two men who have been unquestion-
ably the great leaders in the dry goods trade in
New York city during this century. The two
were in former years often rivals; yet they occu-
pied very different positions in our mercantile
world. Stewart was best known here, of course,
as retail dealer. Cafins trade was entirely
wholesale. suppose it is safe to say that of the
great body of Stewards retail customers but a
few hundred knew where Claflin's place of bust
ness was. Stewart carried on his traffic in two
immense Broadway warehouses, one down. town
and one ptOwn, whose dazzling Wilderness was
a sort Of trademark. Clafin's enormous bust
ness is carried on in side street Tor streets) ana
in building which is substantial without being
in any way imposing. Each merchant filled
practically we'll as nominally the place of head
of the house. Stewards business fell to pieces of
it's own weight when the main pillar re-
moved. It remains to be seen if that of Clafip
will tide over the disaster of his death.
A gentleman who was long connected with the
Clahn house tells me many interesting things
about the great merchant. The actual business
of the firm in recent years has been from $40, :
900, 900 to $45. 000 900 annually The inventory
of the establishment would average about S. 600,
900. AS have said, Mr.. Claflin's mind domina-
ted the whole concern. He had engineered the
building up of every department, and was con-
sequently the master of its every detail. He car
ried this weight in spite of his advancing years,
without worry. The only occasion when he
showed anxiety about his affairs was when, dur
ing the panic of 1873-74 the firm was threatened
with disaster. Its credits were very large, and
when sudden check was given to trade all over
the country, Clahn & Co. of course felt the re-
suit An expert who was called in at that time
to unravel the tangled condition of affairs was
paid $40, 900 in cash for his work In one night
5000 letters were written to the debtors of the
firm stating the pressing need OF cash, and the
replies brought in about $1,000, OOO This was
one of the helps that tided over the crisis Mr..
| Claf1in's physical activity was to the last re-
markable (he died in his seventy fourth year),
| and he would dodge about all over the building,
| never thinking of waiting for an elevator
| Mr.. C,af1in had what must be called a wonder
full gift" in regard to account books. He could
run his eye over pages of a ledger, and without
actually adding up the columns, discover if any
| thing was wrong. An instance is related in
which, some years ago, on thus running over
some of the books he intuitively perceived an
error He told his partners, and after long
search they verified his announcement

A correspondent at Leek telegraphs
that William MellOr, farm labOrer, who so
cleverly succeeded in representing HIM

horse has been traced to Manchester,

that MellOr when only 8 years OF age col

sionary, and then got drunk and burned

the Manchester force, but was soon dis
missed. Two years later he made false
declaration and was admitted to the
Statfordshlre cOnstabulary, but the per-
Jury was discovered and he was dismissed
