LOOKING FOR ARTHUR KEMP.
Circulars Offering Reward to Be Sent
Abroad

Detective McNamee, who went to New
York several days ago to conduct quiet
investigation in connection with the where
abouts Of James Arthur Kemp has not yet
returned. Enough has been learned by the
police to enable them to know that Kemp
did not commit suicide, as was feared by
some OF his friends at the time Of his dis
appearance. 1t is the belief of the police
that Kemp left the United States shortly
after his disappearance from this city, and
as there are but few places where he can
go and be safe from extradition, the police
think he headed for one such place.
Thinking he may be in some country from
which extradition IS possible, however, the
police have made move in the direction Of
notifying the foreign governments that a
reward Of $500 will be paid for his capture,
the reward having been increased to that
amount. Inspector Boardman called at the
State Department yesterday and requested
that the circular issued by the local depart
ment be translated in order that copies Of
it may be printed in the principal European
languages. His request was complied with
and copies Of the circulars will be mailed
to tie foreign countries as soon as they are
printed.
In circular issued from the office Of
United States Attorney Baker, which is to
be distributed over the country, a reward
of SEQ is offered for the arrest of Kemp.
The circular announces that Kemp Is want
ed for embezziement from the United
States.
The circular also gives the information
that Kemp fed to New York city the day
that he disappeared from his Office at po-
lice headquarters. The evening Of July 3,
the day he was last seen here, the circular
states, Kemp registered at a New York
hotel as y. H. Henderson OF Baltimore,
Nd" The following day, 1t Is stated, he
had his mustache shaved OFF. The circular
does not state anything further about his
whereabouts and it is taken to indicate
that he has not yet been traced from New
York city. Because of this registering the
circular describes the fugitive as James
Arthur Kemp, alias ]. H. Henderson,"
The circular Is signed by Mai Richard
Sylvester. superintendent OF police, and D.
W. Baker, United States attorney for the
District Of Columbia. Copies Of the circu-
lar will be sent to United States marshals
and United States attorneys throughout the
country with the request to post in a con-
spicuous place.
