ANOTHER NEW BUILDING
Mr.. McArdIe Purchases Westmin-
ster Street Property.
Will Put Up a New Block and Make
Other improvements.

Robert McArdle was feeling very well
satisfied with himself Saturday night
over the consumma tion of an important
transaction In real estate. He had been
mt work all day and after supper time he
had control of the new building at the
corner of Westminster street, across from
the store occupied by B. H. Gladding ~
coInpany, the lot with the small wooden
buildings at the corner of Weybosset and
Snow streets and the Bancroft estate at
the corner of Greene and Westminster
streets. Ii was an important transaction
as the property includes three of the prin-
cipal corners in the thickly settled part Of
the city.
The building at the corner of Mathew
SON street was secured from the l.. a.
Tillinghsst company. 1t is "A compara-
lively new and modern structure. 1t Will
remain as il stands. There Will bc con-
siderable improvement of the property at
the corner of Greene street and the sal
mon estate at the corner of snow street
will be entirely changed The low wObdcn
buildings will be removed and their place
taken hy a large brick block. There Will
be stores on the ground floor and the up
per part will be arranged for apartments.
The alterations at these two corners will
add materially 60 the appearance of the
streets at these points. The alteration as
Snow street will remove unsightly built
ings and the prominent corner Will be
more agreeable to look at. TO say the least.

SHERIDAN'S TRICK.
Pretended to Be Agent for a C0llec-
tion Concern.
He Returned a Note 10 Mr.. McCulla and
Was Arrested for Forgery.

! Charles III. Sheridan, who Is said TO
have served terms in Boston and Wor-
cester, Mass, for larceny. was arrested
Saturday evening by Detective Parker,
and was this morning arraigned in the
Sixth District Court ON the charge of
forgery, 10 which ne pfUarfgd not guilty
and was held until Tuesday for trial in
the sum of 5000.
The story is that, on the morning of
Dec %, Sheridan went into the National
Hotel and represented 10 the proprietor,
Bernard McCulla, that he was the agent
of the Mercantile collecting agency and
persuaded Mr. McCulia to become "A mem
Der. Mr. McCulla then gave him "A mum
Der of bills TO collect, among them being
one against Peter j. McElroy on Smith
street for $40. McCulla told Sheridan to
get all he could on the bill, and make "A
final settlement with McElroy. Later
in the day Sheridan Ca led upon Mr.. Me
Culla, with six months note from Mr..
McElroy for 500. For collecting this
Sheridan was to receive 10 per cent, but
he told Mr.. McCulla that If nc would pay
the per cent. at that time he would call
it IS instead of SO. Mr. McCulla did so,
giving him a check for the amount ON
the Fifth National Bank. Sheridan then
called on Harson, the halter, who cashed
the check.
An hour or so after McCulla had issued
the check IL dawnod upon him that per-
haps the note given him by Sheridan
might be a forged one so he sent one of
his clerks To Mr.. McElroy. The latter
said he had not given any one a note
during the week, and IL one had been
found floating about the city, bearing his
name it was a forged one. Detective Nlcr-
rill was then put ON the case, but could
find no trace of Sheridan. Since that
time Sheridan has been hanging around
Boston, coming 10 the city saturday
morning Sheridan at one time lived at
the North End and was known by Mr..
McCulla, so it is quite probable that
Sheridan will also be arraigned for OBJ

tipns
