CLARKE m JAIL AGAIN.
Surrendered by His Father as
Bail Bondsman.
Said to he for tho Purpose Of Fore
ing an Early Trial.

Herman Clarke, of the defunct bro
kerage firm OF Hunter Clarke & ia.
cobs, Exchange place, who was indicted
by the Grand Jury in April last on a
charge of embezzlement, was surren.
dered by his father. his bondsman, this
morning.
Young Clarke was informed OF his
fathers action by an officer In .ht
District-Attorney's office, and gave him.
self up Immediately. lie was taken &c
the Tombs by Detective-sergt. Phi
Reilly and locked UP.
In explaining the matter, Clarke said
that he had tried to force his case to q
trial. but could not do so, as the Judges
were trying only jail cases. and leaving
the bail cases to q future date.
Il am perfectly innocent" he said
land can easily prove It. As II now
stands. many OF my former friends are
In doubt as to my guilt or innocence
| can do no business, as men do not
care to transact business with a man
over whose head hangs an Indictment
l can now hurry my trial and regain
my former standing commercially and
socially"
-, 1t is rumored that the real cause Of
the Young maIi's haste il that the Grand
Jury will shortly be asked to return ad-
ditional indictments against him. He
evidently believes. II II be true that his
surrender by his father was pre-ar-
ranged. that II tried OH the indictments
now against him nothing further will be
done.
1t is rather doubtful, however. II the
action OF the father was agreeable to
the young man. When the Official found
him this morning and informed him OF
his fathers action he muttered. Father
is pretty hard-this Ia pretty hard"
He pleaded with the policeman to let
him go to the General Sessions Building
by himself. as he did not want to walk
with uniformed officer through the
streets. The policeman, however. was
obdurate, and Clarke had to 90.
Clarke was arrested on March Z In
Chicago, where, in company with a wo-
man. he was living at the Imperial
Hotel. The complainant was John X.
Hunter. jr.. the assignee OF the firm
of Hunter. Clarke & Jacobs, of which
young Clarke was a member. On ex-
aiming the books Mr.. Hunter discov-
cred many irregularities on Clarke q
part. He had traded heavily in Sugar,
and used the firms credit far beyond
their knowledge. This, In addition to
many deals of an alleged fraudulent ma
ture. was the cause Of his arrest. When
he returned to New York he declined to
accept bail and for q long time re-
manned in the Tombs.

TAEYSTOlE CORDAGE.
Four Thieves Cleverly Captured
Robbing the Lawrence Store.
Two Of the Quartet Worked as
Porters, One for 10 Years.
The Other Confederatea Were an
Expressman and a Junk Dealer.

Detective-Sergts. John ]. O'Brien and
Clark. OF Inspector McLaughlin's stan.
and Detective Madden. OF the Old slip
who have been systematically robbing
the Lawrence Cordage Company. of 4s
South street
The prisoners were all arraigned be-
fore Justice Martin In the Tombs Po-
lice Court and remanded until to-mor-
row morning.
They gave their names as Hiram Bar
ter. porter, thirty-eigh years old. Of
1898 Flushing avenue, Brooklyn; Hugh
Mcmillan. porter. hfty-eight years old.
Of $50 High street, Brooklyn; Richard
Kelly. fifty-three years old. an express
man. OF 222 Cherry street. and jeremiah
Shea, a junkman, sixty-gix years old.
Of 1T Conover street. Brooklyn.
Porter Barter has been in the en-
pioy OF the Cordage Company for nine
teen years, and was counted among Its
most Trustworthy employees.
Kelly and Mcmillan. Inspector Nc
I,aughlin says, are ex-convicts, and have
been arrested by the New York police
for stealing bags OF coffee In a down.
town wholesale house some years ago.
Then. as In the present case. they hired
purpose of robbery
Mcmillan has been in the employ Of the
Cordage Company Tor only a few weeks,
but II 10 known that his appearance at
" South street was the time when q
good many dollars worth of rope became
missing.
Last Thursday Mr., l.. o. Ivey, of the
Company. informed Inspector McLaugh-
lin that he was being robbed, Detectives
Clark and o'Brien and Ward Man Mad
den. completely discussed. patiently shad-
owed the store until this morning.
O'Brien recognized Kelly as an ex-
convict. and results were awaited. The
old and supposedly faithful porter, Bar
ter. was unsuspected in the mean time.
When Barter and Mcmillan appeared
at the store this morning at Id O'Clock
the detectives were there In time to see
the two portefs roll two big $500 coils of
rope out in front of the store and load
them into Kelly's express wagon, which
was on hand to get his load.
Kelly then drove off, followed by De-
tectives Clark and O'Brien, still In dis
guise. The expressman drove to Brook
!yn and delivered the rope to Junkman
Shea. Detective Clark remained behind
and arrested Shea, while O'Brien
Swallowed Kelly across South Ferry and
arrested him In South street. In the
mean time Ward Man Madden arrested
Mcmillan and Barter. The latter broke
down when arrested.
II Is not yet known how much prop
erty has been stolen, but II Ii believed
that the sum is considerable. for the
stealing has been going on for weeks.

would leave for his country seat at

return to this city this week. and his

Mr.. Morton spent the night at the

Republican State and County Commit
lees, with whom he had an appointment.
aid he had not heard and did not ex-

| Mr.. Morton will probably communicate
directly with the public, and that his
answer will be In the affirmative there
Iis no doubt.
Gustav II. schwab. Chairman Of the
Executive Committee. and Manager. Of
HE Chamber OF Commences political
bureau and the newborn citizens' move:
|ment, wanted II distinctly understood
|this morning that the citizens movement
was not being run In the interest Of Seth
Now or any other individual.
As to himself. he felt highly. nattered
|that his fellow-citizens should propose
him for President of the Board Of Alder
|men, but he would not, for business and
|cther reasons, accept any public office.
las far as he knew, not one OF those who
1signed the call for a conference was a
candidate, although w. l.. Strong and c.
II Smith, two Of the signers, have been
mentioned for Mayor.
The signers had no axes to grind, ex-
|cept in favor Of pure government. There
WAS no definite plan for u campaign.
FThe details Of that would be left to
|the determination of the conference.
Mr.. Schwab explained the reason that
the anti-Tammany organizations would
hot be invited to the conference Is that
|the citizens movement Is non-partisan.
