yalor as a soldie CT fortune. arrived III
New York yesterday by the CunArder CAM
pania after five months sojourn in Lon
don. Mr.. Garfield always returns In May
| or early June from his winter wanderings
abroad, but this year he came back for the
special purpose Of finding out If he had
been indicted during his absence for main
tanning a gambling house. Two hours
after his arrival he went to the Criminal
| Courts Building, and his attorneys tried
their best to find out II there was an indict-
ment They failed. and will try again
Tomorrow In the mean time the would-be
defendant was paroled by Judge Mcmahon
! in the custody of John Delahunty, one OF
| Canfield's attorneys.

! after 3 o'clock and Mr.. Garfield was the
seventh passenger to come down the gang
plank. He was dressed in q dark gray,
| double breasted sack suit, patent leather
shoes, tan gloves and derby hat. He
looked as II no were in good health. Mr.
| Delahunty and Joseph, Cantield's man
servant, stood near the foot Of the plank
They were the only persons on the pier
+ who had personal interest in his arrival.
| Joseph's ebony face expanded into broad
| grin OF welcome, which was countered
! by a warm handshuke as soon az Mr.. Can
| field stepped OH the pier. Garfield and
| Mr.. Delahunty started down the pier to
| the lawyers carriage. In response TO
questions from the reporters, Mr. Garfield
| said:
"There isn't much that can say, but I'd
| like mighty well to say that little. Mr.:
mustn't talk, and 30 1t must be. I'm seri-
! ously thinking, however, OF trying to get a
lawyer who will let me say something"
Where are you going9' he was asked.
I'm not quite sure, but l want 70 90
me. l have a very strong notion Shat ia
! like to zee Mrs. Garfield and a little girl
and little boy. who are waiting for me
down there, just about as soon az the train
| will take me-.
After saying so much, lawyer and client
J jumped into cab and started for MIR Della

! followed by the cabs OF dozen or more
reporting photographers. At Maiden lane

got out to walk to the office. At the en-
trance a man had planted large camera
and was waiting for his prey. That was

that cane and get bung-starter I'm
Very fond of that stick"
A. Garfield approached with the cane. Of

uplifted the camera man scooted.
After a while pelahunty and Garfield
went to Judge MeMahons chambers IN
we're joined by Assistant District Attorney
Cans and Forbes j. Hennessy, another OF
Canfields attorneys. Judge Mcmahon shock
hands all around and asked Mr.. Can
field if he had had pleasant trip. Then,
pointing to a screen near his de- K, he asked
Mr. Delahunty if he didn't think it was
work OF art.
sI's certainly a fifine screen, Judge, said

Garfield didn't venture an opinion and
Mr.. Cans said: A., ~,
Garfield has come here for the purpose
dictment against him. We have not been
able to find any indictment this morning,
and II is not positively established that
there is an indictment. l suggest that
the matter go over until Monday. | do
not understand that they want to give
bail, and, therefore, Mr.. Garfield might
be paroled in the custody Of his counsel.
"On the contrary. your Honor said MIR
if there is any reason why we should IL
there is not, then we want 10. Ike told so
that we may go about our business.
Well said Judge McMahon, smiling

nobody here to detain him.
We've Travelled 5000 miles, said Mr.
Drlehu lty, for the particular purpose Of
getting definite iinformation about reported

Judge Mcmahon said that, as ne was not
sitting in open court. he couldn't accept
a plea to an indictm ,nt anyway, 20 he sug-
gested that the whole business go orei
until Monday before Judge Newburger.
And will you parole Mr.. Canned III my
custody?' inquired Delehunty.
ats not quite clear to me what business
have to hold man against whom there
Is no CHARGE said the Judge, but If Mr.
Garfield thinks he'd like to have guardian
for torty-eight hours, you have my per-
mission to act as such.
Mr.. Garfield drove to his house at East
Forty-fourth street, where he had luncheor
and later he went to Providence 10 spenu

District Attorney jerome was at hi'
Office for short time about 10 o'clock

Jerome, whether he comes here or not
I'm going to Hartford, where have an en-.
, gagement to speak tonight. 1t would
be q violation of the law for me to say
whether Garfield has been indicted or not
If he is ard he's in he country II will be
an easy matter to get him when we want
