WON'T HELP HIM.
No More Money for Young
Furnald.
Mrs. Garner Warned Against Fur.
nald-The Suspects Charged
With Grand Larceny.

Walter Guy Furnald, alias Allen. alias
Spence. Harry Earle and Mrs K. c. Gar
ner were booked at the City Prison yes
terday on the charge of grand larceny in
connection with the disappearance OF
Simon Jacobson's money and diamonds.
| Mrs. Foltz, attorney for Mrs. Garner
| and her son, continued her efforts yester.
day morning to procure bopdsmen for her
clients. She waited upon Superior Judge
Murphy, who, after consulting with Chief
Crowley, fixed the bonds for each of the
two prisoners at $1,000.
About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon
Mrs. Foitz called at the City Prison and
presen ted an order from Judge Murphy
for Mrs. Gamers release. Her bond had
been accepted, the boDdsmen being Z. j.
Baldwin, Mrs. Gamers uncle, and Frank
Walker, vice. president of the Perine
Powder Company.
Prior to leaving the prison Mrs. Garner
was seen by CALL reporter. Her nights
rest had apparently done her an immense
amount of coed. She was bright and
cheerful and her face had lost its deadly
pallor of Sunday. She did not seem to
| have the slightest realization of the humili-
| ating position in which she had placed her.
! self by her association with Furnald, a
| thief and card sharper.
Il can assure you again" she said, THAT
neither my boy nor myself knew anything
| whatever of the diamond robbery. and
was as much surprised as any one when
we were arrested and were told OF the
| charge against us.
ut is this big fool heart of mine that has
| got me into trouble. I was infatuated with
! that man, who l will say has the manners
and education of gentleman.
~ did my heart good to hear him talk
| to Harry. He warned him constantly
against the fOllies of youth. and said re-
| peatedly he would rather see him dead
| than touch a card. he told him it was far
better to earn only So a week and live an
honest life than earn 500 week by dis
honest or illegal ways.
"He was constantly praisiDg me to the
! boy, till harry got suspicious of him and
pressed me to have nothing more to do
with him. He told me that FurnaId was
not good man and was not proper asso-
ciate for US. How l wish now that had
listened to my sons advice
''This will be- severe lesson and we
will be exceedingly careful In future Of
the friends we make.
II have letters of introduction to Judge
Haines and Judge Fitzgerald and other
prominent people so that | am not with
out friends As soon as am released l
will set to work 10 get bonds for my son
and hope TO be able to have him with me
Tonight"
Furnald and Harry Earle are still In the
tanks at the old City Prison. Furnaid,
on Sunday night, sent dispatch to his
father, who is prominent citizen of Man
chester, n. H., telling him of his trouble
and asking for assistance. He received
reply yesterday morning which stag
gered him. He was told he need not ex-
pect any assistance financially or other
wise from that quarter.
Furnald has cost his father thousands OF
| dollars for getting him out of similar
scrapes and it is supposed he did not en-
gage the services of an attorney until be
heard whether the old gentleman would
aid him now as before.
| The stolen diamonds and money have
| not yet been recovered and Furnald con-
Times to keep his mouth shut as to where
they could be found. Captain Lees does
not despair of getting possession of them
sooner or later. 1t is only question oil
| time.
Chief Crowley SAYS that he has a sure
case against Furnald. but he is doubtful
! II Mrs. Garner and her son can be held.
| The probability is that they will be dis
charged By the committing magistrate.
The warrants were sworn out against
the three prisoners before Judge Murphy
OF the Superior Court last Thursday, as
none Oh the police magistrates could be
| found. The prisoners will accordingly be
! taken before him to-day. He may select
| to sit as committing magistrate or be
may indorse the warrants, TRANSFERRING
the cases TO one of the Police Judges. Ii
is probable he will choose the former
course, as be is already conversant with
the facts in the case.
