iy detective stool pigeon" whose nama
is also Albert Sugden. gained the conf
dence Of the suspected young man and
finally wrung from the latter the details
of the robbery and the inside particulars
OF suit which the valet had brought
against Mr.. Wilson for alleged detective
services in seeking to discover the author
of scurrilous letters attacking Mr.. Will
sons daughter, now Mrs. Cornelius Van
derbilt, Jr. These letters, which ap-
peared about the time of the marriage,
were written on letter paper of two cf
the most aristocratic New York clubs,
and created great sensation. Decoy
Sugden wrote to the young Englishman
that on account of the similarity and
oddness of their names, they must be
relatives. The valet replied to the note,
and soon an apparently strong friend
ship sprang up between the pair. Young
Sugden gave his namesake a sealed en-
velope containing a receipt for Mr.. VIII
sons jewelry, which had been placed the
day after the robbery in the vaults of the
New Jersey Title and Guarantee Com
pany, Jersey City. The suspect while
being shadowed was found to be con-
sorting with an ex-convict, who had just
been released from the Kings county
penitentiary. In the face of the evidence
the accused broke down and confessed
the crime, and the jewelry was recovered.

ANDREE'S MESSAGE
Believed by the Scientists to Be a
Hoax

] aOdX
NEW YORK, August 1S-A special to
the Herald from Washington says
Scientific men in Washington are great
ly interested in Andree's polar expedi-
tion and are eager to CLEAN from any re-
liable quarter information concerning
it. Prof. William Harkness, from the
observatory, in discussing il, said in an
interview: Il have no reason to doubt
that Andree may have reached as far
as 50 degrees north latitude. There is
nothing so remarkable in that. Nansen,
for instance, went as far or farther, but
l am inclined to think the Christiania
story is unreliable. I will not say that it
is impossible for carrier pigeon to
cover the 600 or 800 miles indicated over
icy seas, but it would be only one chance
in thousand if the bird took a direct
route, and if it's vagaries were extend
ed, it would die before long from lack of
food. Under the best possible chances
bird might, perhaps, cover the dis
tance in from ten to twelve hours, rest
ing on the floating ice en- route.
"One strong reason for doubt is that
the latitude and longitude of the place
where the pigeon is reported to have
peeH oiiel al e iiot SiNeIl III .ie uiopdtCHes
and that is so contrary to navigators
system as to give rise to suspicious.
Then, granting the pigeon was found
and shot, and alleged letter obtained. 1t
seems very improbable that a captain
so we'll acquainted with and inter-
ested in Andree's plans as this one is
said to be, should refuse to give the let
ter into hands that would carry ii
directly to civilization but carry it with
him further into the Arctic regions. He
would naturally have been glad to give
any such important news to the world
as quickly as possible"

CHICAGO'S FINEST
Saw That Wealthy Walker Was Not
Robbed

CHICAGO, August 1S.-All the police
men in the Harrison street district were
engaged in watching 100000 in money
last night and incidentally making GER
tain that the young man who was car
rying the fortune around with him was
not escorted to the lake front to see the
steamboat explosion"
T. A. Walker is the son of a Salt Lake
millionaire and has been in the East for
some time attending to business matters
for his father. In New York City he was
held up and robbed of 5000 and fine gold
watch. When he reached Chicago yes
terday he registered at the Victoria
Hotel with his wife and then went out
20 purchase revolver that he might be
prepared to encounter a lot of footpads.
When he purchased the weapon he also
bought diamonds worth $40, 900 and pay
ing the bill pulled out roll of money
containing $1,000 Policeman Granger
and Flynn with Inspector Hartnell were
standing in front Of the store and saw
the money. The officers suspected some
thing was wrong and shadowed Walker
TO his hotel, where they were satisfied as
to his identity When Inspector Hart
nell was told the story he at once made
a detail of policemen who kept their eyes
riveted on Walker until midnight, when
he and his wife boarded a Rock Island
train for Peoria.
