HE sAuNTEREp AROUND TO HER Box.

HE bAtNiEhEp AhoONb ~ lei boAs
"Why, it was on your street. My wife was
visiting her father-in law, ana while she was
inside some fellow must have reached into
the carriage and taken the money, for she
found 1t gone when she came out. The
coachman had been driving the horses up
and down at a walk, and had not remarked
Anything wrong. AMI my wife knew she had
left the roll of bills in the carriage, and when
she came out they were gone, and her pocket
book and one or two other little things. She
had not meant to stay long and thought they
were safe enough"
We'll, now, you go Town to Inspector
Byrnes and l shouldn't wonder if he had
your money. He has ZONE that was taken
from u carriage on Thirty-ifth street two
days ago, and it's very likely that it is
yours"
Mrs. Robinson was quite pleased at the
thought of helping Mr.. Ledyard to recover
his money. That gentleman acquainted them
ut Headquarters with his loss. The amount
that had been taken from his carriage was the
same as that which was found on Fox and
which they had at the Central Station.
So Inspector Byrnes sent Detective Sergt.
McCauley up to Mr.. Ledyard's to see If any
thing could be done towards identifying the
money as his. Fortunately in this instance
he was enabled to do 30. 1t happened in this
way
The day before the robbery was committed
Mr.. Ledyard had drawn $500 from the
American Exchange National Bank. James
A. Terhune, of the bank. had paid him the
money by giving him an unbroken package
| from tba I'nital Stataa Sub Traaouru It
was a bundle of one hundred ive-dollar bills.
These bills were a b series. running con-
secutively from 3,l49, 700 up to 3, l49, 800.
Out Of this money Mr.. Ledyard had given
one bill to his coachman, No. 8,149. III. He
had given seven more to his wife.
G. w. MARROW, Of the b-Treasury, and
James A. Terhune, Of the American Exchange
National Bank, testified to the package of
bank bills which Mr.. Ledyard had received.
and the bill which he had given to his coach
man was also used in evidence. The nun.
bers missing in the bills which Mr.. Led
yard had-from 8, l49, TOO up to 3,l49, 800
were precisely the bill he had given to his
c%oachman, Michael Fahy, and the bills which
l had found in Fox's pocket after following
him from the carriage.
Fox's lawyer was Mr.. Keller. Fox gave the
name Of Louis Bell. He pleaded guilty &c
grand larceny and did not try to make q fight
with such damning evidence before him
This was his second otfense and he had served
time in the Elmira Reformatory and in the
penitentiary, SO he was liable to twice tn,
penalty which would be- inflicted for a frst
offense.
He got it. On the Sd Of February he wal
sentenced by Recorder Smyth to ten year,
in the penitentiary. The rascal had managed
to get away with the pocketbook INT tn,
trinkets, and never thought he could be con
victed on u roll Of bank bills. He knew yer,
