DASH FOR LIBERTY FAILED
Harry W. German Attempts to Es-
cape From Headquarters.
Recaptured After an Exciting Chase
Said He Was Going for
Lawyer.

Harry w Gorham, a young man OF dimi-
nutive stature, who has been wanted by
the Washington detectives for several
years, was captured on Louisiana avenue
yesterday morning. but made a desperate
effort to escape from the headquarters
After chase he was overhauled and
brought back.
Detective Rhodes arrested Gorham Oh
the charge of forgery and the prisoner
was taken to rear room at the detective
office, while Rhodes went across the street
to procure a bench warrant and ii copy
Of the Indictment upon which Gorham
was arrested. Policeman Phillips, who
phone call and Gorham seized the oppor-
tunity to make a bold dash for freedom.
He passed half a dozen policemen and
detectives, who had no idea that he was
prisoner, and ran out into the street.
Policeman Phillips started after Gorham
and the chase was exciting. Detectives
Helan, GalIaher, Carter and Weedon joined
in the pursuit, " hie several hundred men
aud boys followed the procession.
detective Weedon and Policmean Phillips
We're in at the death. Phillips gripped Cor
hams collar, while Weedon fell over the
pair in his haste and sprained his arm in
his sudden descent. Gorham was nearly
exhausted when brought back To the de
te,tiye office, but he managed 10 gasp
that he was Innocent and wanted TO get
away ou!y to secure the services of a law
yer to defend him. He was Immediately
searched and sent tn No. / station, where
he was locked up safely in a cell.
The offense FOR which Gorham was ar
rested was committed two years ago W hen
he forged the name OF Rosa Moore, Of No.
11I6 C street northwest, To a check for
$3.50 and secured the money from the
Bank of Washington. He was Indicted
but has always managed to successfully
elude arrest.
He is known as a worthless sort OF
fellow, though he always mana ges to dress
and appear web. For some time he has
been living at Landover, Nd.
Last Saturday Detective Rhodes learned
that Gorham had sold second hand furni-
ture to d dealer at Tenth street and Penn
sylvania avenue and would come in yes
terday morning for his money. He was
on Louisiana avenue about 10 O'Clock yes
terday morning, when a young man, Cor
nelius ". Smith, of No. 314 Elm street,
saw him and notified the officer, who ar
rested him and brought him 10 head
quarters, whence he escaped.
There are several other cases pending
against Go,ham, and he viii not have
another opportunity to get away for some
time at lea st.
Detective Weldon, who was assigned
10 the case two years ago, made several
trips to Philadelphia to get the man, but
on each occasion Gorham eluded arrest.
