STOLE FROM MERCHANTS. !
John Patterson Accused of Swindling
New York Produce Dealers.

Philadelphia Pa Nov. 1S.-John s. Pat
terson was arrested here today by Detec-
tives Tate and Ulrich on warrant from
New York charging him with grand larceny
in the first degree. The capture Of Patter-
son, who is accused OF thefts amounting to
about $50, 600, was due to the cooperation
OF the New York and Philadelphia police,
who have had the man under surveillance
for some tim e.
Sergt Mcknight Of the New York detec-
tive department and the representatives Of
a number Of New York firms that are said
to have heen swindled by Patterson, were
in this city today and were present at
hearing OF the accused before Magistrate
Jermon this afternoon.
According To Sergt. McNaught, P attersnu
is a mem Dcr Of gang OF swindlers. The
sergeant says that Patterson, whose home
is in Philadelphia, has made flying trips
To New York with his confeierates. He
obtained goods from business firms to the
amount of $4,000 Mcknight says the
sums vary from $500 to 5000, and the
victims were principally dealers in produce.
1t is alleged that Patterson and his con-
federates would visit dealers in produce
and represent themselves rs members Of
firms that were well rated in Bradstreets'.
On the strength of their representations
they are said to have placed orders which
were shipped to them. The payment was
never forthcoming, and the alleged SWIM
dlers are charged with selling the goods
so obtained for their own benefit.
One OF the firms that p Patterson is charged
with representing is that Of t W Estes
& Co. of New York.
The police expectto capture several others
of the alleged syndicate.
When Patterson was arraigned before

CENTRALS LOST.
Were Not Heavy Enough for the
Maryland Boys.

Maryland Boys.
The football team OF Central High School
PLAYED the Maryland Agricultural College
yesterday and was defeated by a score of
IA to o. The Central boys hoped they
would be able to put up an even better
game than the previous close one between
the two teams, but the heavy Agriculturists
were too much for them
The features of the game We're the long
runs OF Watkins and the line plunges of
Lewis, who scored two of the three touch
downs for NJ. A C. For the Centrals, the
all round playing of Jolly, Albert and
oyster We're the features.
NJ. A. c. ficked off and Albert brought
the ball back twenty yards before he was
downed Short runs by ALERT and kevel
advanced the ball to the center Jf the field,
where N. A. C. secured it on downs Lewis
went through left center for fine fifteen
yard gain, Watkins followed with five
yards, but it was lost to Central on
tumble. Inability to advance it forced
oyster to kick, Lewis getting the ball and
going to Central's 'stwenty-yard line. Strong
line plunges carried it near goal line and
then Lewis went over for a touchdown, but
failed to kick goal. Score, 4 to 0.
On kickoff good runs by Watkins and
Lewis brought the ball to the center OF the
field. Central could not withstand the
heavy rushes, although her ends did some
sharp tackling. Lewis again went over for
touchdown, but failed to kick goal. Score
SO.
In the second half the Centrals took a
brace, and the Agriculturists were able
to make but one touchdown, and this on
pretty run 10y Watkins, Lewis kicking goal
Score 40.
From this time to the end of the game
the play was marked by the brilliant tack
ling Of Ball and Exley for Central
Twenty minute halves were played.
