CHROME STEEL WORKS
employees ON OUTING
rrsciol to he EVENING NBws

Roosevelt, Aug. 2:-As predicted
in the NEWS the excursion Of the
Chrome Steel Works employees and
friends Sunday to Hudson Grove was
a great success socially and finan-
cially, about 1875 tickets passing
on board the Steamer Matteawan
and Barge A. NJ. Church.
The stay at Hudson Grove was but
short enough to permit the crowd
to spread out a little. The borough
was reached on the return trip short
ly before 10 O'Clock p. m. Demp-
sey's orchestra and a piper kept the
dancers in good humor and every
body had a good time.
Ernest Walz, of Houston street,
one Of the company's watchmen,
stepped off the dock when the land
ing was being made at the steel
works on the return trip and got a
ducking. He was considerably char
grined by the jollying he got when
he had been landed aboard again.
Officer Donovan, who went along,
broke up several gangs intent on Sc
curing good money by various gamb-
ling devices. Otherwise no unplea-
SAN incidents occurred.

mobbed by a crowd around the palace
of justice, had been j~udicially in
formed that he would be deported to
London In fifteen days to answer to a
charge of murder and had been iden-
tilted by Nine. Glnnette, the Roselle
On. j. woman and former friend of
Belle Gilmore in England. who was
so instrumental in causing Crlppen's
capture.
So many happenings descended upon
was the color of a corpse when pushed
into a carriage and driven back to his
cell in the provincial prison.
Ethel Leneve was not a~rraigned with
Crippen, and in that omission lies the
germ of a mystery.
Unofficial police circles have 1t that
the Lenevc m has broken down
and is In a hospital. Other sources Of
Information affirm that she has agreed
with Inspector Dew to turf kings evil
dence and for that reason Will not be
arraigned until later, so that she and
CrPpen may be sent back to London
on different ships.
After the court proceedings Crippen
was taken into the office of the high
constable, where he was suddenly con.
fronted with Nine. Ginnette. The
sight of the woman caused Crippep
to shrink into his clothes, but he said
nothing when she called him Crippen.
This is a quiet city, but there was
almost a riot outside the palace OF
justice when a crowd of 1000 people
tried to get a view of Crippen as he
left the building. A carriage was half
overturned, several women were
knocked down and only the mass of
the crowd prevented an accident of
moment, for there was no police pro-
lection of any kind.
Crippen is a shriveled little old man.
He has a growth of sandy beard on his
face, his thin hair is ragged on the
edges, his cheeks have fallen In and
his eyes carry the look of a hunted
man.

ESCAPED JAIL
AND TOOK THE
KEYS WITH HIM

New Brunswick, Aug. 2:-Erhardt
Maick, a baker, eighteen years old, was
arrested last night at 106 East Third
street, New York City, by Detectives
Lemon and Sullivan and locked up at
Police Headquarters on the charge Of
being a fugitive from justice.
Maick, swho was a prisoner in Jail at
New Brunswick, serving a sentence for
burglary, relieved one of his keepers of
his keys on Sunday and walked out.
The Warden went to New York yes
terday and with the assistance Of the
two headquarters men found the man.
Maick was employed by Charles Fol
da, proprietor of a bakeshop in New
Brunswick, and when he left several
months ago Folda missed a gold watch
aud chain valued at SO and $lS7 in
cash. Maick was arrested, found gull
ty and sentenced to Jail.
1t is the custom IN New Brunswick
to let the Jail prisoners have the run
of the yard. Erhardt was taking his
daily constitutional on Sunday when at
a distant point in the Enclosure he no
ticed something bright and shiny on
the ground.
"Money!' he breathed, as he walk
ed toward the lustrous object. But it
wasn't money. 1t was something in
finitely better than money. 1t was a
bunch of keeps. And such a bunch of
keysl None other than the Warden s
pet bunch-the jail keys.
Erhardt took the keys, glanced sur
reptitiously about, as if he were about
to engineer a general jail delivery, and
then unlocked his way to freedom. Then
came in the sense of humor. Instead
of throwing the keys back into the Jail
yard where they belonged, he put them
in his pocket. In a few hours he was
telling his chums on the lower East
Side all about it.
"Please, SIR" reported one of the
guards, "No. 23 is missing"
"Never mind No. 23," said the war
den, harshly. "Find the keys"
All over the Jail and in the yard, and
over the grounds outside, searched the
j%ailers, but no keys were found. Then
it dawned on the crowd that perhaps
if No. 20 were found the keys would
not be far away. Thus it was that the
warden went to New York yesterday
and at Police Headquarters asked for
two detectives.
The bakeshops of the lower East
Side were searched with a fine tooth
comb, and at No. 10 East Third street,
Erhardt, laughing heartily and swing
ing the bunch of keys on his fingers
carelessly, the detectives said, was
found. He was duly apprehended and
will return to New Brunswick today.
After this the KEYS will be left hang
ing in one Of the Jail cells.
