Landed in Jail.
David Parker (colored), experimenting
the erection Of building at Burroughs and
Waldburg streets for w. S. Pembsrton, was
given an examination yesterday before
Justice McDermott on charge of cheating
and swindling. The charge was preferred
by Mr. Pemberton. G.. B. Whatley. ESQ.
prosecuted the case and Mr.. Wright APP
pearad for the prisoner. The magistrate
remanded Parker 10 Jail in default Of $4O0
bond.
Parker, it appears. has been swindling his
employer in a wholesale way. He has been
employed in the capacity Of superintende 1T
by Mr.. Pember5on off and on for the last
six months. He has made out the pay roll
for the hands every week. aud drew
the money himself and did the
paying off. Last week he discharged
two hands and they went to Mr.. Pemberton
to draw their pay. They told him that
day. Mr.. Pemberton looked on the
pay roll TO verify it. and found
that Parker had them as drawing
81 80 each. Mr.. Pemberton asked Parker
what 1t meant, and the superintendent said
that ne owed the boys enough over their
regular wages to make the last weeks list
run up to 81 so each. This did not prove
satisfactory explanation, and Mr.. Penber-
ton inquired among some OF the laborers,
and found that none of them We're getting
as much as Parker had charged on the pay
roll.
A warrant was then issued from Justice
McDermott's court for Parker, and he was
arrested and lodged in Jail. Before paying
the hands off at the cad of last week the
magistrate suggested that each man be paid
the amount they claimed. They were paid
off in That manner, and by comparison
with the amount called for by the pay roll
the employer found that he had saved S35.
Parker had made each mans wages on
the pay roll more than he paid, and in set
ding he reserved the overplus. If Parker
made rs much each of the eight months
while in the employ of Mr. Pem6erton as he
would have cleared the last week the

watch and chain, gold
ring and other articles, which De-

samples are stolen during the Shipping

are annually employed at stated sum, or
are given one-half Of the value of the goods
