1T DIDN'T WORK.
Gerard Remy's Method of
Revenge.
How He Entered Into Scheme With
Some g Detectives" TO Do Up
q Confidence Gang.

James Rogers alias Jack Shean. was on
trial before jury In Judge SeaweiPs court
yesterday for grand larceny.
The defendant is one of a number OF men
who are suspected of entering into a conspir-
acy to swindle Gerard Remy out OF some money
at poker and other confidence games. The
particulars Of the case must be familiar to all
readers Of IHE CALL. 1t was on April last
that Remy who is a resident OF Aptos,
Santa Cruz County. and who had only been in
the city few days. was approached by a So
GALE d detective. who offered TO recover for
Remy $40 out Of which lie had been swinded
TWO nights before At the Golden Gate Park
saloon.
The so-called detective. By name Thompson,
introduced The unfortunate Remy 10 another, an
amateur detective" and tbe.thTee apparently
put up a job on the confidence gang the mem
beTs OF which were known 10 the ''detect ives"
They were 10 play poker in house at 1913
Taylor street The cards were TO be fixed 50

The gang, and then Thompson would walk out
all.
Remy was delighted, and accepted with alac-
Tlty, merely 10 get his S170 back. or course
But fate was against him. He played for two
or three hours. during which lie won some
$500, TIL at last he received the fateful hand
which was 10 be the signal for the cleaning-Out
process He then had S541 on the table.
Alas! Remy bet his S541, gave a check for
$1,000 more, and had The satisfaction OF seeing
his full hand" succumb to flour tnrees" But
the arrest took place. Thompson walked in,
collared all the money, and made the arrests
Remy never saw his money again, and il was
not before some time had elapsed that he saw
be had been dipped.
The chief point noticeable about Remy's
testimony Yesterday was tue cool way iu which
he admitted having agreed 10 deliberately
swindle those who are said 10 have eventually
swindled him. He admitted, under cross-ex-
animation from j. ID. Sullivan. the attorney for
The defense, that offers of compromise had
been made TO him, and that he had held out for
more money. The $1,000 check had been de-
strOyed. and Remy knew that, yet he repre-
Sented TO Palmer, the head of the gang. that IL
was still in existence and that he would acce pt
nothing less than $500 by way OF COM
promise.
The only particular charge against Rogers
appears to be that he introduced Remy TO the
so-called detective. The case Will be con.
ciuded To-day

and Intellectual celebrities of every
nation met few days ago at the
French school of arch zoology at
Athens, in Greece, to hear the sing

Apollo. The music and words of
that hymn, which were lost, have
been found engraved on marb'e
