the police any assistance in the search

When the police became certain that
Kemp had left the city. kilograms offer

dispatched TO the police OF all the large
Eastern cities. On the theory that there
was woman, a member OF a burlesque
company. in the case. detectives were
sent 10 Baltimore and Philadelphia Their
search, however. proved futile
The following day Detective Evans,
who had been sent TO New York City,
learned that on the evening Of July 3
Kemp had registered at a hotel there as
j. II. Henderson. Baltimore, Md" and
that on the following morning he had had
his mustache shaved of.
When nothing was heard concerning
the location Of Kemp. members of his
family were of the opinion he had COM
mitted suicide. The police. however
would not accept that theory.
When F. 3. Hesse. private secretary

This property was valued at about
$4,000, but when it was put up for sale it
brought only about half that amount. The
attachments aggregated S5,576.
Kemp's alleged defalcation came as a
great shock to the members of the police
force. For a number of years he had
been in the employ of the department in

James Arthur Kemp is forty-six years
of age, and was born at Elysville Md
October p, 1861. He entered the service
of the police department as a stenograph-
er February y, 1885, since which time he
had been continuously in the employ of
the department. He served for a time rs
assistant to Maj Sylvester. thea chief
and property clerk, and upon the majors
promotion 10 the head Of the Department
was appointed by him as his successor.

Kemp's name was stricken from the rolls,
and Mr.. Hesse was appointed in Kemp
place.
Following the disappearance Of Kemp.
circulars Offering $500 reward for his ar
rest were distributed throughout the
Eastern States. a few days later circu-
lars were printed. in several languages
and were mailed to all the larger Eu-
ropean cities. and punches of a dozen or
more were mailed to American consuls
IN various countries for distribution.
More than 2l0.010 pieces OF mail matter
were sent from police headquarters in
the weeks that followed
This work was under the supervision Of
Inspector Boardman. chief of detectives
Night after night, during the hottest part
OF the summer, a dozen or more detectives
were engaged in the task of addressing
envelopes and folding circulars.
Following the receipt Of these circulars
at the different points the police were
notified of the arrest of several suspects.
In the latter part of August the police
at Logan, W. Va, believed they had To-
Gated the right man, but when Detective
MacNamee arrived at the place. he found
the man under arrest was not Kemp
Another suspect was arrested at Beck
ley, ". Va, several weeks ago He
proved to be the wrong man. when Sergt
Carter went TO identify him. Numerous
persons DESTROYS of getting the 500 re-
ward, telegraphed the police officials. but
when the cases were investigated, all
proved erroneous information.
A number of persons from whom Kemp
had borrowed money, on learning Of his
flight, took steps to protect themselves
by securing attachments on Kemp's prop
eTty near Rockville. Md. Kemp owned
two farms Of considerable size al that
place. on which he had built comfortable
residences.

Condemns Resort to Boycott.

Another method by which wage-earn-
ers sometimes attempt 10 eoeree their
employer into acquiescence in their de-
mands is what is called a boycott 1t is
a method by which the striking employees
and their fellows of their union attempt
to coerce the whole community into a
withdrawal Of all association from their
former employer by threatening the rest
Of the community that If they do not
withdraw their association from sucn
employer they will visit each one of them
with similar treatment. This is a cruel
instrument and has been declared to be
unlawful in every court with whose de-
cisionS ! am familiar
The Washington herald., 1908-01-11

The remedy by injunction has been
very severely denounced and criticised
on the ground that it places in the hands
OF a judge legislative, judicial, and ex-
ecutive powers; that it enables him to
make the law for one case against par
ticular individual, and if he does not
abide by it to try him and punish him.
When this objection is analysed 1t is
found 10 be unjust.
An injunction suit does not differ in
the slightest degree from a suit brought
after the event, so far as the function Of
the court is concerned In declaring the
law, except that the court declares the
law in respect of anticipated facts rather
than in respect of those which have hap
pened. He has no authority to make law.
In an injunction suit, as in any other suit.
he merely interprets the law and appkes
it to the circumstances "
