ACROBAT AND CRANK.
The Queer Character Who Is Behind
the Bars at Rockland.


RooKLAND, October 9.-TLe young man
calling himself Richard r. Spain, an account
of whose singular operations as bogus cir
Gus agent has been printed, is still held at
the police station. Marshal Crockett has
looked up his history and has given the in
teresting story to today's Opinion.
Spain has friends in Worcester, Mass. His
real name is George E. Sieben, and he is 26
years old, 10 years younger than he stated.
His relatives believe the young man is in
sane.
Some years ago, an Indian show came to
Worcester. and he became interested and
worked with them. Since that time he has
been infatuated with show life. He worked
with local show, and has travelled with
dime museums and circuses. He was some
thing of contortionist, and has exhibited
as such. He has also been press agent and
advance agent for number of shows. His
mother thinks his acrobatic work was bad
for him, as he would often come home from
his trips ILL.,. She always took care of him on
these occasions, but never gave him any
did not drink. and had no vices; so if he
Travelled with the temperance lecturer DOut-
ney as reformed drunkard," as he says,
1t was purely professional engagement.
The Worcester police say that Sieben has
been "in trouble" once or twice, but was
never prosecuted. Marshal Crockett has re
ceived letter from Walter L. Main, propri-
etor of the circus, Sieben claimed to repre-
sent. He says that he has no agent in this
state, and has never intended to bring his
show down here this year. He has had in
employ man named Richard r. Spain, the
name given by Seben, who was a musician
and perfectly square man. He sends a
description of Spain, showing him not to be
at all like this fellow. 1t is yet uncertain
what will be Sieben'S fate.
Sieben has had new revelation. Yester-
day, all of a sudden, he started up and de-
clared that he had come to himself that the
past was a blank to him from the time he
left Worcester, intending to go TO Quebec
He says he has not the least idea what he
has done or where he has been during this
time. Sieben's friends are trying to Settle
the matter for hime.

WASHINGTON, October 3.-The Secretary
Of the Navy has had conference with the
representatives Of the Cramps and the Union
Iron Works, and the matter Of awarding the
contracts for the four vessels was settled.
The Cramps will build two Of the batteships
for $3,020,000 each, and the triple screw
cruiser for 81, ,725,0O0 The battleships will
be constructed according to plans made by
the tirm, the features Of which have already
been described in these dispatches. The
Union Iron Works will build the third bat
tleship. The iSecretary proposed to Mr..
Scott, the president of the company, that the
Ciamp plans be adopted by his firm, so that
the three ships might be uniform. The con-
tract price will be the same as the Cramps
receive, which Is less by $4,000 than the
amount for which the Union Iron Works
proposed 10 do the work under the depart
ment plans. The firm will receive a bonus
OIL S6O, Tor undertaking the work. This
SUN Is supposed to cover tue additional ex-
pense OF transportation Of material.
Inc ships, as stated, will be built on the
cramps, plans, which, In turn, have been
modified by mutual agreement. The length
OF the vessels will be increased Is feet, in
stead OF IL, as the Cramp plans contemplate.
Inc normal draft will not be increased. The
width will not be altered, and such change
as Is made will increase the displacement
1000 tons. The effect Of this alteration, in
crease Of length without other change, will
produce finer lines. Both firms readily
agreed to the departments notifications.
The engineer officers reported to the Secre-
tary that the present machinery, which
Cramp purposed to retain, will be capable
OF propelling the larger hull not only at the
required speed OF 10 knots, but at an addi-
tiOnal knot

New YORK, October 3.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade says: "Never be-

The money market in all parts of the coun-
try has turned to greater ease There is ac-

branches Of manufacture or enlargement of
operations. Domestic trade Is improving In
all directions. There is Improvement In ex-
ports, which show for the lpast month gain

The settlement of the brick boycot here, sets
many men at work again. The labor out
look Is decidedly more satisfactory. Even in
regard to the shOrtness of crops, less is heard
of late, and the growing impression Is that
the loss may have been to some extent exag-
gerated Details of domestic trade show
phenomenal activity In all important centres
with comparative freedom from speculative
excitement or disturbances"
