Perry Yerrington Once More
in Laws Clutches.
New York Officials After Him for
Grand Larceny.
Wanted Now to Throw Light Upon
Murder Mystery In Gotham.

Perry Yerrington was arrested on Dor
rance street this morning by detectives
Parker and Reardon on bench warrant
from New York, where Yerrington Is
wanted on the charge of grand larceny.
He was taken before Judge Sweetland
and after the charge was read, Yerrington
said that he did not care to make any
answer until he had consulted his coun-
sci. John NJ Brennan.
Yerrington was accompanied by New
York newspaper man, who says that Yer
rngton Is wanted in New York to clear
up the murder OF w. p. Collins, as he is
in possession of information that will do
so. The newspaper man says that II Yer
rington will return To New Yok that he
can have star chamber in the Tombs one
night and after that he will be allowed
his freedom.
Yerrington claims that his wife, who is
In Boston, Is critically i'll, and he wants
to see her before he goes West for the
possibilities are that Mr.. Yerrington Will
not come East again for some time, as he
is wanted In Illinois and other Western
states. The police of this city received
word from Mr.. McCloskey, now at the
head OF the New York police depart
ment, that Yerrington was wanted and 1t
was upon the strength OF this request
that Yerrington was arrested.
1t Is quite evident that Mr.. Yerrington
had been among the "down Easters'
since his arrest IN this city few weeks
ago, for he had on hew hat and the rib
bon hadthe name of a Rockland, Me-,
Broad street dealer.
Lawyer John NJ. Brennan advised YER
rington 10 plead not guilty, and then face
the music at New York, and To 20 with
out requisition papers, providing, how
ever, that Providence officer accompany
him
Yerrington claims to have plenty Of
money behind him, which come from a
Boston firm, and whatever happens TO
him, he will be backed up, as the concern
that he represents have engaged counsel
in all large cities where 1t has done busi-
ness.
The presence of the supposed newspaper
man, who calls himself Hull, and says
that he represents the New York Herald,
has shrouded Yerrington's present condi-
tion with something of a mystery, and
according to his story he has a mortgage
on the police force OF New York.
Hull told lawyer Brennan that IL Yer
rington went TO New York, that he
would "give his word of honor" that
YSrrington would not be locked up.
Yerrington will go to New York, and is
willing to pay for an officer TO accompany
him, SO that IL there is nothing found
against him in New York, he can return.
