Sr. Louis, Sept. 9O.-Mr. J. A. W. Fer
now, the druggist, who was robbed o.
$3.50 by bis clerk few nights since, has
been unsuccessful in his efforts to either
secure tho money or arrest the thief. He
has, however, been enabled 10 identify
the thief as the principal in several other
slippery transactions. Last July Ger.
man preacher living on the Olive street
road,' Rev. Fayn, had $3.50 stolen, and
from the description OF the thief as given
by his wife, he and Mr.. Fernow's clerk
are one and the same.
Some time since this same young man
called on Judge Finkelnburg, the lawyer,
aid produced q letter purporting 10 be
from the father Of the young man, who
said he was an old schoolmate Of Mr.,
Finkelnburg, and advised his son to call
on the attorney in case he needed asslst-
ance. Ho said he was out OF work and
money and had no friends nearer than
New York, and il he had enough money
to take him back there he could get his
old place again. Although Mr.. Finkeln-
burg was positive that he had not known
any such man, be thought that the letter
referred To an older brother Of his, and so
gave the boy $40. In few days the fel-
low returned and begged so piteously
That, though Mr.. Finkelnburg accused
him Of having deceived him in regard to
the use Of the $40, he gave him S. more.
Since that time he has not heard Of him.
While clerk at Mr.. Fernew's, the thiel
met an old German acquaintance, who is
still in the city, and judging that he could
give some information aa to the identity
Of the man, o reporter called on him, and
learned that the thief Is the son Of an old
and highly respected German Baron. His
true zane is Victor Ridder, son Of Herr
Max Won Ridder, formerly Minister oil
Eiael, and who now lives at Nenweid,
