Accompanied by Sheriff Phillips and De- tectives Charles Cody and Tom Gibson, Peter McGlade, the defaulting cashier of the Superintendent of Streets office, arrived here last night from Deming N. M. After embarking from the Oakland boat the party entered a carriage and was driven to police headquarters.
 McGlade did not appear to be worried, although he announced that he was fa- tigued on account of the long trip. After few minutes conversation with Chief Lees McGlade asked that he be allowed to get something to eat, as he was hun gry. Chief Lees had no objections and the party went to a neighboring restau- rant and had supper.
 The news that the defaulting cashier had been brought back travelled with as- tonishing rapidity and in brief space of time the restaurant was besieged with friends of the accused man. They advised him not to speak about the case, and as- sured him that he would not have to suf- fer the consequences of his crime After partaking of hearty meal McGlade was taken to the City Prison, where he was formally charged with forgery.
 Deputy Sheriff Fitzgerald, who went to Port Costa to meet McGlade, remained with him in the prison for several hours. McGlade's brother also had a long con- yersation with him.
 The dfsgraced official refuses to say any, thing for publication.

 McGlade was then escorted from the train and taken to prison. He announced his. intention of coming back Without making any fight Phillips speaks of Nc Glade in the highest terms.
 ''He Is perfect gentleman" he de- clared; I'm sorry that he is mixed up in such an affair.""
