Francisco for the past week in the inter-
which is to be played at Fiesta park, re-
est of the series of baseball games

with him the trophy for which the clubs
in the recent tournament in San Fran

elaborate pieces of silver work that has
ever been displayed here. He has placed
it on exhibition in Spring street show

Of these checks he secured from the
agent Of the Santa Fe round trip ticket
to Chicago, with sleeping car accommo-
dations. He also bought bicycle and
fine overcoat with bogus checks.
AS soon as he arrived in this city ne
sold the railroad ticket to DeCamp q
Lehman, ticket brokers, at 213 South
Spring street, for $50. Soon afterwards
the telegram was received from san
Diego asking that he be arrested, and
he was locked up. When DeCamp &
Lehman learned that the ticket they had
bought had been purchased with
forged check, fearing that 1t would be
outlawed by the railroad officials, they
secured a writ of attachment and levied
upon McKeen's valise, overcoat, the $50
in cash which he had on his person when
arrested and all his other effects.
The writ of attachment had been
served before Chief Russell arrived
from San Diego. To have returned
home with his prisoner but without the
articles purchased by him with forged
checks would have been useless, as all
Of these articles would be needed as ev-
idence against the prisoner.

not all Of the prisoners effects.
McKeen confessed his crime yester-
day to the officers. He says he Is willing
to take the consequences Of his acts,
which he claims to have committed in
a fit of desperation. being without
money or friends. He denied, however,
that he had ever before been guilty of
any crime. His candor and general de-
meanor impressed the officers with the
truth Of his statements. McKeen claims
to be a member of respectable family
in the east, and as he does not desire
that his people should know of his
trouble, he refuses to tell anything
about his former life.
When the arrest was made the officers
were confident that McKeen was none
other than the noted forger w. H. Greer.
alias Dwight alias Miles, alias
Bowen, alias half dozen other
names. Investigations made since have
led to the belief that McKeen Is not the
much wanted man. He answers the de-
scription Of Greer in some particulars,
but in others there is decided difference
between the two. Greer Is man of 3S
years or more and his head is plenti-
fully sprinkled with gray hairs. Nc
Keen is not more than % years of age
and there are no gray hairs in his head.
