was playing. and, it is alleged, took the
child into a barn near by. where H0uck
claims that he surprised him few min
utes later in the act of attempt
ing the brutal crime. Mr.. HOuck
stated yesterday afternoon that his
first impulse was to call all officer at
once and have Eppstein arrested. but
that the man begged SO hard, even offer
he at the time desisted. Houck, how
eker, is said to have admitted having
told Eppstein that 5000 was not
enough money, and that he should have
more. subsequently Eppsteln was ar
rested by Officer Murphy and taken
before the police magistrate. who re-
handed him to the county jail without
bail for trial to-day. Eppstein has en-
gagged Attorney Williams to defend his
chse, and, acting under his instructions,
refused to talk upon the subject. When
Questioned by GLOBE reporter, how
ever, he admitted having offered
HOuck money not to prosecute him,
low much he would not say, but denied
the charge preferred against him. Epp-
stein, who is said to have relatives of
considerable means in New York,
boarded at the Clarendon, and has
many friends among the young men Of
the city, who scout the idea of there be-
ing any truth in the charges. They
claim that Houck offered to settle for a
certain sum of money exceeding $1,000,
and that it is case of blackmail, in
which Houck has taken advantage OF
young Eppstein's play with the child to
prefer the terrible charge,

ROCHE Is WITH THEM.
The City Comptroller Will Con-
tinue to Pay the Usual Salaries
tO Fire Dena rtI tImant Chiefs

The City Comptroller Will Con-
tinue to Pay the Usual Salaries
to Fire Department Chiefs.
The serious possibility of an unreas-
enable reduction in salaries, under the
recent act of the state legislature, which
has been troubling the chiefs of the fire
department. for several days, does not
seem to be as bad matter
as was at first feared. City Comp
troller Roche yesterday declared him
self as ''wid" the firemen, and stated
that he saw no reason why he should
not continue to allow the chiefs the
salaries which they have been receiving
during the balance of the terms for
which they are engaged, which will
carry them over until the next session
of the legislature. Comptroller Roche
holds that as the amended law does not
state when the election shah take
place, except ''in every alternate year. :"
and the present chiefs having been
elected for terms of two years at a
stated salary, previous to It's passage,
the law will not be of effect until the
election in 1891, when the legislature
will be in session and can remedy its
blunder. But should third assistant
be appointed, in his opinion, but $500
per year could be allowed him.
