York Produce Exchange.
NEW YORK, Dec 12-Two months and a
half have elapsed since the flight of William
Foster, the lawyer who robbed the Produce
Exchange benefit fund of $l93, ,0O0 and not
the slightest clew to the whereabouts Of the
fugitive has as yet been obtained. Although
his defalcations and precipitate departure
were discovered within twenty-four hours
after he left, in that time he succeeded in
completely effacing himself from the current
of public life.
The local criminal authorities have had
full knowledge of the commission Of the
crime, but nothing has been done by them to
apprehend tue man There is no warrant
out for Fosters arrest, and he has not even
been indicted by the grand jury
District Attorney Fellows said
What is the use of indicting Fosterl He
is out Of the jurisdiction of the court, and
probably out of the United States. II he
were appFehended, say in Canada, warrant
could easily bs sworn out for his arrest and
his extradition demanded by the state de-
partmtnt, as forgery is an extraditabIe
crime will, however, procure Fosters in
dictment as soon as / am furnished with the
papers in the case by Mr.. Deming, counsel
for the complainants"
Mr. Horace e. Deming, counsel to the
managers of the Produce Exchange, said:
1--WE employed Pinkertons agency ilnmedi-
ately after Fosters flight, but so far nothing
has been discovered concerning Fosters
whereabouts AT one time we thought we
were on his track, but the clew proved to be
a wrong one. We have sent photographs Of
Foster to every city in the United States,
Canada and Europe, and have offered a re-
ward of $3.50 for information as to his where
abouts, Int so far have had no response. /
have reason to believe that the reward will
be very largely increased soon."
