One OF the sad results of a fathers
crime developed the past week in the
two children of Harry S. Ingley. who
forged the Metropolitan street car
tickets, being assigned to the care OF
lhe Board OF Children's Guardians by
Jusuce Scott. The two interesting
c1lldren are Elenora ana Phoebe, aged
Ii and IA years respectively. 1t was
sad Fourth Of July for those Door
children; their father accused of a se-
rlous crime and themselves without
home or mother. Perhaps it was for
their sakes the unfortunate father en-
deayored to increase his scant wages.
Ills excess of love- however took a
wrong and unfortunate direction.
Nevertheless, the truly charitable must
sympathi2e with the two innocent IN.
tie girls who, no doubt, love their faith.
er, as they ought ardently. and mourn
his downfall. How few think of the
innocent hearts which break or are
saddened by the fault or crime of the
guilty, and how fewer still have the
Christian charity to make allowance
for the temptation to which the nm
fortunate are subjected. II Inglev had
decent wages and reasonable hours of
employment, he would probably never
be guilty of the crime with which he
stands accused. How many thousands
are subjected, like this unfortunate
man, by the bare and insufficient liv-
ing wages paid by monoplies to their
slave employees to temptation and the
commission Of crime? Legally Ingly
may be declared guilty, but an All-see-
ing Providence will saddle the moral
guilt where it rightfully belongs-on
tne s0uHess and grinding monopoly
which coins the blood and muscles Of
human beings into inordinate riches
tnat some daughter Of a plutocrat NAV
marry a penniless member Of the Eu.
ropean aristocracy.
Touching the visit Of the detectives
to England and Scotland in search of
evidence for the conviction of the Ingly
brothers, the daily press, the past
week, announced the return to Wash
ington Of Detective Sam l.. Browne.
who was detailed by Major Sylvester
NA' NAAN NtloNs lBtltNNANt bIOWue, WHO
mainly worked up the case against the
lngleys left this country June 4th, and
on arriving at southampton a week
later went directly to London, where
he placed himself in touch with the
British police authorities and the
American consular representatives. He
remained only a short time in London,
and after securing the proper papers,
proceeded at once to Glasgow, Scot
land where he expected to secure the
| lithographing plates from which the
tickets are said to have been printed.
Before leaving this country Browne
| received word from the firm manufac-
| turing the tickets in Glasgow that the
| plates would be turned over to a rep-
resentative Of the local police or an
agent Of the lithographing company
would be sent to this country with
them, so that he did not suppose there
would be any difficulty in securing
| them. However, when he arrived in
Glasgow he was informed that the
plates had been sent to Birmingham,
where the Ingleys are said to have
been born, and where they lived for
a long time.
In Glasgow Browne secured the pa
pers proving that Samuel Ingley had
ordered the tickets as president of the
street railroad company, and also q
statement of the number of tickets
which were printed and shipped to
birmingham. On visiting Birmingham
Browne found that the photographic
| plates had been sent to Hull At the
| former place the detective learned that
! the Ingleys had all lived i'm a suburh
OF Birmingham for number Of years
| before coming to this country, and
that they were very well known there.
Frederick lngley's wife, from whom
he has been separated several years,
formerly lived in Birmingham. On
proceeding to Hull, Browne found that
the lithographing plates had been for
warded to London, where he finally Sc
cured them. The plates resemble the
copperplate from which a halftone
cut is made, and are the size of six
tickets on a strip. IL is supposed that
each strip of tickets was printed sep
arately. There are two plates for the
complete strip of tickets one for the
face and one for the reverse side
Browne completed the business por-
ton Of his trip as soon as possible and
imm ediately started for home He
brought each member Of the detective
force present from abroad, consisting
of some useful article. Captain Board
man was presented with a silver
mounted pocket knife, made in Shelf
field Browne said he had enjoyed his
trip very much, but was very busy dur
ing the entire time
