For Obtaining Money Under
False Pretenses


Cedar Rapids, April 19.-The greatest
sensation that the city has known for
some time will be created when it is
generally known that Wellington Rich
ards. clerk in G. H. Boyson's phar-
macy, has confessed to being a de-.
faulter in the sum of more than SO, 900,
and the exact ancun. ri!! ne.e- be.
known. His operations have covered a
long period of time and the fact that
Mr.. Boyson kept no regular set of
double entry books materially assisted
him in securing the money that for a
long time was not missed.
His extravagant manner OF living
first led Mr.. Boyson to suspect the
truth. MIR. Richards was prominent
among the society people and in church
circles among those of his own age
was not known to have any bad hab-
its and was generally regarded as 8
model young man. When Mr.. Boyson
was led to sus Jicion him he employed
Charles F. Ryan. a Pinkerton detective,
Who for five summers has been with
Sells Bros. circus on the road, and At
torney B. y. Wick, of this city, to fer
ret out the matter. Their work was so
we'll done that within forty weight hours
| Of the time Ryan arrived in the city he
had trapped Richards, had obtained a
full confession and secured the restitu-
ton of all the money that Richards
had on deposit in the banks and the
deed to the lot on which Mr.. Richards
has been living, South Sixth street
west.
The trap was sprung Monday at noon
and Richards bit. 1t had been arranged
that the detective should buy goods to
the value of 81, that DR.. Hartman
should make purchase to the amount
of s. and that Mr.. Frazine should buy
merchandise to the extent of SO While
MIR. Boyson was absent at dinner. The
lsbills We're all marked, and but for the
| fact that another man happened to be
in the store al the time Mr.. Frazine
made his purchase. it is probable that
the whole amount would have been
knocked down. AS it was the account
was short 81 when Mr.. Boyson re-
turned from dinner. three dollars in
marked bills were found in the cash
register and the other 81 were pro-
duced by Richards when called into the
back room by Ryan to make confess
