FIVE INDICTMENTS.
John C. Hall Said to Be a Fugiti
Wanted by the Police

John c. Hall Said to Be a Fugitive
Wanted by the Police.
1t was freely reported yesterday that of
the seven indictments returned by the Grand
jury on Thursday last five were against the
embezzling attorney, John Chase Hall, and
that bench warrants for his arrest lave
been in the hands of the police ever since
Hall, however, has not been found, and
probably never will be, as he had ample
time TO escape. He has not been seen in
the city since it first became known that the
Grand Jury was investigating his behavior
Prior TO that time he appeared daily in his
office and made frequent proies,ations that
he was ready 10 give himself up TO justice
at any time that his ruined creditors OF the
law decided upon that course.
Since the list inst, however he has dis
ppeared entirely from view, and the COM
mon belief is that he is either on the high
seas or occupying residence across the
Canadian border If he is located in Can
ada, however, an attempt will be made to
secure his cXtradition

Special to THE CALL.

One Of Gotham's great society events is
the dog-show. This has invariably been
held under the auspices of the Westminster
Kennel Club, and it has grown in import
ance year by year until now nearly all of
New York's society leaders are seen there
admiring the dogs and criticizing each other.
The show will be held in the Madison
square Garden on the oath 18th, 26th and 9th
of this month. The club has determined
this year that the exhibition shall surpass
any previous event of the kind, and the
encouragement offered to owners of valua-
bic dogs includes so many unusual induce
nients that the honor and the special prizes

are not the oily inducements to be con-
sidered. Many Of the dogs must come from
distant States, and the money prizes rarely
pay the expense of transit, but the honor
OF a prize taken in New York is very
attractive, and there viii be in Madison

some incident in his professional career,
made singular by the surrounding circum-

the following remarkable story:

miles and miles he walked, and days and
days he was exposed to the elements, his
food being begged and his nightly couch
only such as nature afforded. Summer was
coming on, aud as he neared the South the
heat became unhearable, causing him to
beat retreat toward the North. One day
a kindly farmers wife called him into her
kitchen aGd set before him the best her
pantry afforded. On the table was a news
PAPER. and with q start he saw in headline
his name. Selling the journal he read the
story of the lawsuit. A feeling of rage pos

risk of being .remandsd to the asylum rather
than see his step-father made the victim of
his greedy relatives.
