some one Of the locals would reach out
and make a hit 10 accelerate the speed OF
his comrades on the bases but there was
no necessity for 20 doing.
Carrick gave away fourteen bases on

CONSPIRACY TO ROB.
Tho Charge Made AEninst N1nny Employees
nm ARLINGTON Factory.

Tho Charge Made AGninst Mnny Employees or
an Arlington Factory.
A wholesale conspiracy formed for the robbery
ofthe Arlington Manufacturing Company OF Arl-
ington. N. j.. is thought to have been discovered
yesterday by MIR. Pierce. the superintendent OF
tho works. Seizures were male of articles valued
at several hundred dollars in the home of Ed
ward BcrRlar. one of the forcmen of the staining
room. The articles were secreted beneath beds
and in closets and consisted of celluloid baskets,
hair brushes, mirrors. fancy boxes and similar
goods. The goods were seized on q search war
rant issued on the affidavit Of Mr.. Pierce. Within
a few hours James Casey. Anthony Volta.
George Carter and Mrs. Anthony Volta were
placed under arrest.
From one Of these prisoners. it is said. in
formation was obtained that showed that over
fifteen employees of the works were in u con-
spiracy, and sufficient data WIS obta lined before
noon Yesterday to prove that tho thefts had
been going on for over two months. From tho
mcRgre information given out yesterday il was
learned that dishonest employees made IL their
practice to secrete choice articles in their cloth
ing when they WERE employed at night, and as
months the amount OF the stcalings may run
into much larger figures than is at present esti-
timatcd.
The goods, it Is alleged, were disposed of at
nominal prices TO Anthony Volta, who Is a bar
keeper for Wallcnkaupf Of Forrest street and
Midland avenue, Arlington. All of the prison.
ers were. held on bail yesterday to await a
work on the case and expect to make many
other arrests.
