Arrest of ex-Air Line Road Conductor Sam uel IT. Clark of This City on a Seriou Chnrpa-His Story

Arrest of ex-Air Line Road Conductor sam. uel IT. Clark of This City on Serious Chargc-His Story.
 Samuel 1T. Clark, who is wanted in Willimantic. was arrested last evening by Sergeant Cowles and locked up charged with obtaining money by false representations. The arrest was made at the request of Captain Hillhouse of the Willimantie department, who came to this city and stated that in his opin- ion Clark was in this city.
 Detective Sergeant Cowles was detail ed upon the case and last night located Clark on Salem street and arrested him. He will probably be taken to Will limantic this morning for trial Clark is charged with representing to two Willimantic capitalists that he owned considerable real estate in this city and on the strength of these representations secured $500 from them.
 Clark was interviewed at police head quarters last night in reference to the trouble and said: "I was arrested last night at the residence of my brother in-law, AS Salem street, with whom I have been boarding since my return to this city, about September 8. I do not think that I have been guilty of any crime, but am the victim of vindictive prosecution. Had I been guilty of any crime I certainly would not have re- mained here when l. have had so many opportunities to escape. Ehe case is practically as follows:
 T was a conductor on the Ar Zine division of the Consolidated railroad Last spring I had an opportunity to go into the hotel business and secured the Hotel Windham in Willimantic. I did not have quite enough money and bor- rowed $500 from bank on a note which was endorsed by A. T. Carpenter and J. G. Martin of Willimantic, who have had me arrested. The note was for four months and came due September 24. Before this reverses came and I was unable to continue the business. came back to this city September 8, but on the 24th returned to Willimantic, when the note was due, and paid $100 on it and renewed it for thirty days, When
 
 meet 1t. From that time until the pres ent nothing has been done in reference to the matter.
 T never represented to them that owned any real estate in New Haven, but may have said that there was lot here which was worth about $1,300 and that thought I could sell it and all I got for it over $1,000 would belong to me. Beyond this there was no conver- sation in reference to real estate, and the only reason I referred to the lot was because I thought l could sell 1t and probably pay off the note before it matured. I certainly did not intend to make any false representation to the men who endorsed the note for me. I am married and have g. wife and child in Boston. I shall have to go to Will limantic, but hope to come out all right as am entirely innocent of any wrong doing. I have been trying to secure work, but have been unsuccessful. Had succeeded would certainly have paid the note"
