ARRESTED ON OLD CHARGE.
Business Manager Mcdonald Again
in the Tolls,

w. F. Mcdonald. business manager for
the Chicago NJ anufacturing Company,
whose office is at 76S Eleventh street
charge OF forgery, preferred by Oliver
Thomas, an employe of the firm.
The charge against Mr.. Mcdonald is an
old one with a new name and has been
preferred twice before. on each occasion
he has been acquitted owing to lack Of
evidence, and he is confident CT like result
when the case comes up.
Mcdonald obtained his release last night
under real estate bond of $500. The name
of the firm under which he operates, ac-
cordipg to his bill head, is the Chicago
Manufacturing Company, but is really an
agency of Weaver Kengla, Of this city,
manufacturer Of soap.
Mcdonald sells packages Of soap on very
flattering terms, including the gift Of
fine French China tea service
Thomas was employed to deliver the
goods and make regular weekly collections
from customers. He was required to de-
posit $14.50 with his employer as security,
which was to be returned when his con-
nection with the firm terminated.
Things went smoothly for some weeks
| until Thomas gave notice that he intended
to quit. He alleges that Mcdonald re-
fused to return the 81 1850, claiming that
notice of seven days, required by the
contract, had not been given. Thomas
thereupon swore out a warrant for his
arrest, charging him with petty larceny.
The case was tried but as the letter
OF the contract had been violated it
was dismissed, and Thomas tried again,
and brought civil action for the recovery
of his money. At the trial few days
| ago Mcdonald was again acquitted after
4 Offering in evidence a receipt for the
money signed by Thomas.
/ Thomas, how ever, claims that the sigma
/ ture is forgery, and states that he has
not received the money, while Mcdonald is
| equally positive in his statement that the
/ document is valid.
The tangle will be unravelled at tht
4 police court this morning. number o
witnesses have been summoned, among
! them, Judge s. C. Mills and II. Queen

CHAPMAN CAME HERE TO DIE
Young New Yorker Attempts Sui
eide at Howard House.
Turned the Gas on in His Room at
Emergency Hospital in Seri-
ous Condition.

Charles Fl. Chapman. a man apparently
about twenty-eislit years old, who said
iiis home was in New York city. attempted
suicide yesterday morning by turning on
the gas in his room at the Howard House,
corner OF Pennsylvania avenue and Sixth
street. He was found stretched across the
bed and unconscious about 3 O'Clock i'll
tile afternoon and sent TO Emergency Hos
pital.,' The house staff worked for several
hours on him and at a late hour last night
the chances for his recovery were about
even with those against it, --s.-.-
Chapman came to the city Wednesday J
night and went Immediately to the Ho ward
House, where he register ed under the name
OF h L. Young ,,of Philadelphia. He made
no acquaintanccs during the evening and
retired rather early
He got up and ate breakfast yesterday
morning and was afterward seen about
the lobby OF the hCteI. Sometime later
he retired to iiiS room, though no one saw
him enter. IL was 80 O'Clock when one
OF the day porters detected the Cdor OF gas
and started on a tour ofinveStigation. He
reached the third floor and stood before
Chipman's door where the smell was
strongest.
with little difficulty he gained entrance
to the room, anu there found Chapman
stretched across the bed, while the gas
was pouring from a jet on the wall that
was turned on full. The porter gave the
alarm, and Patrolman Shultz, who was
standing near the corner, was summoned.
He Immediately sent for the ambulance Of
Emergency Hospital, and the young man
was quickly removed to that Institution.
An investigation OF the room occupied
by the stranger disclosed t wo not es, neither
of which the hotel people would give out
for publication last night. One of the
notes declared the intention OF the writer
TO end his life and apologiZed for any
inconvenience the people ut the hotel
might experience by saying that all eN-
penses OF his funeral would be paid by
friends in New York.
the other letter was addressed to a
| friend in New York, and it is said that
| the young man had made the trip all the
way to Was hington for the express purpose
| of ending his life. These letters, together
with some unimportant papers among his
| effects, were the means of disclosing the
real name of the man. His only bagga &c
was satcheI that contained a small
quantity of clothing, but there was moth
| ing about it or the person Of Chipman to
reveal his place OF residence in New York
or his occupation.

ing +. P. Arbuekle.
STORY DISCREDITED BY POLICE
They Claim He Is Either Crazy or
Sha Inming-He Is Now Confined
in County Jail at Louisville, Ken
lucky. on a Charge Of Forgery.
Names His Pal.

Louisville, Jan. 7-Frederick Rauman,
alias Wilson, confined In the county Jail

have been one Of the murderers of Frank
+. Arbuckie of Denver, in New York,
Nov enber 10. Bauman says that his
father is g. Edward Bauman, banker at
Dearborn and Monroe streets, Chica go.
Bauman said to reporter today:
People haze been W wondering who killed
ArbueMe in New York. / had a hand in
that affair, and do not hesitate to say
SO.
MY partner in crime was Dave Ed
North Chicago. We met Arhuckle in Sui
livans saloon, down in Harlem.
FLASHED His Roll.
I've saw him flash his roll, and when
he left Edmunds and myself concluded We
would follow him and get his money. We
had been knocking about New York for
two weeks and we were Completely strand
ed. Sulliyan's saloon is On Third avenue
we followed Arbuckle to Eighth avenue,
where he stood waiting for d car. We
pounced UPON him.
"Eofnunds used j small si1ngshot and
cracked MIN over the head with the butt
end of Il Smith x Wesson revolver. We
/ took his money, 1926, diamond ring
and a gold watch. The watch is now

New York by different trains and met i'll

ago lie expected to Join Georgia Cayyan's
company.
BauInan claims to have acted with
Frederick Ward and says he served a term
in Pentonylle, England, for rUbbing com
panion.
In conclusion, Bauman said he did not
join Georgia Cayyan's company here be
cause his passion for dress caused him To
forge a check on E. Goldstein & Sons, OF
this city.
The police discredit Bauuan's story, and
say he is either crazy or shamming.

charges that Great Britain had plundercd
the Irish taxpayers The whole matter was
one for reason and argument. de regretted
that the Irishmen had seized part of the
blue book on the subject and had over
looked five different reports therein quail
