history was that OF Edward Park. a
tutor IN the family Of Banker James J.

appeared in July last. Park, who bore
an excellent reputation and had the
freedom of the house, was on the prem
ises at the time. A few days later he
set sail for Norway,
AS the thief had left no trace behind
him, the detectives concluded that the
robbery was an inside job. They sus-
pected Park and pawnbrokers who had
loaned money on some of the stolen
property picked out his likeness from a
group photograph as that OF the man
who had pledged the plumber
When Park steamer reached Nor
way, he was arrested on a cable order
from this city. The mystery was clear
