AFTER LONG CHASE.
A Thief Is Located by Detectives Fol-
lowing His Wife.

New York, Nov canadian detec-
tives, after a long chase, have arrested
Frank Frappier in Brooklyn on a war
rant charging him with the theft of
$40 from the Canadian Pacific railroad
The detectives say that this charge is
technical and allege that the prisoner
robbed the company of many thousands
of dollars by means of dummy pay
rolls and check system which he de-
vised for paying employees at distant
points on the line while he was en-
ployed as a section foreman
Frappier said he would fight extradi-
ton. He was traced by the detectives
through his wife, who led the men a.
chase all over the New England states
Finally, by most circuitous route she
entered a boarding house in BROOKLYN
At the door the husband met her A
few minutes later he was under arrest
Beside being in the employ of the Cana
dian Pacific, Frappier owned a large
hotel in Montreal and was considered to
be quite wealth. He was arrested three
months ago but fled. When his wife
sold the hotel and prepared to leave she
was followed. The detectives say they
had great difficulty in keeping trace of
her movements but We're only a few
minutes behind at the end after a
chase of hundreds of miles and leading
through a dozen large cities.

BLITZ USED HIS FISTS.
Hits Otto Langhanke and Blackened
His Eve.


In a fist fight which occurred at the
corner of Eighth and Kansas avenues
about z o'clock last night, l. NJ. Blitz,
the jeweler, handed Otto Langhanke, a
black eye and a bruised jaw. The fight
was about Blitz's wife. She was con-
versing with Langhanlxe and Blitz OBJ
jected. Trouble had been brewing for
some time before the men actually came
together but when they did, business
ing Langhanke up, Blitz went to the
police station and explained the case,
offering to pay fine. The officers in
formed him that he could not be fined
until he was arrested. Langhanke came
down to the station this morning and
swore out a complaint against Blitz on
the charge of assault. He declares that
the ieweler attacked him without rea-
son. I have never spoken half dozen
words to his wife, said Langhanke af-
ter they had been separated, and Blitz
had started for the police station. He
is surely crazy His wife was just de-
livering a verbal message from friend,
that was all. I will make it cost him
something"
Blitz says that he did not start the
fight. He says that when he called the
attention cf a friend to the man talking
with his wife. Langhanke turned and
followed him short distance, inquiring
what he was going to do about it. Bl1tz
has been having considerable trouble.
He has a divorce suit pending in dis
trict court in which Ianghanke is not
mentioned as a correspondent, but Blitz
evidently suspected him. and while
watching him talk to his wife, was
overcome by a desire stimulated by
Laughanke's remarks to administer
what he considered adequate punish

A Halt in Corporation improvement S
PTTTsBURG, September g.
The Post to-day says.
According to we'll matured plans, not
only of the great railway corporations
of the country, but of the larger in
vestors of capital in building opera
tions, there is likely to be general
cessation of building operations in
1904, which will make that year men,
orable to the trades interested.
The statement of one of the largest
contracting concerns in the country
connected with railway construction
work is the basis for the assertion
that at least $180,000,000 worth of
building operations proposed for 1904
have actually been called off, and plans
have been recalled from architects and
engineers
TO UNDERTAKE NO NEW WORK.
1t is also said by the same authority
that, so far as. known, there will be
nothing in the shape of new work
undertaken the coming year, and when
the present contracts are completed a
period of waiting will ensue.
1t will be a waiting for the general
labor situation to settle down, and the
end of the factional wars and strikes
that have almost destroyed confidence
in building.
PENNSY TO STOP IMPROVEMENTS.
The same information is that the
Pennsylvania Railway which now has
enormous improvements under way
and contemplates at least as much
more, or $4,000, 900, during 1904, has
decided to withdraw all of those plans
and do nothing further with them un-
til there is more placid condition of
the labor market.
Information given out shows that in
New York alone there is at least $780,
100000 of new building for 1904 in
volved in the general plan of with.
drawal.
$70,000,0 900 TIE-UP IN CHICAGO.
In Chicago, where the labor troubles
have been continuous for months, it is
said that more than 100000, 900 of new
work has been abandoned.
In this city Henry Phipps has de-
clared that he would not turn another
stone in the city except where opera
tions have already been started.
The delay in the extensive improve
ments contemplated by III. G. Frick has
been stated to be due entirely to the
unreliable:state of the labor field, and a
similar condition is said to exist with
the H. w. Oliver improvements not al
ready begun.
