Roosevelt, June 6:-Arthur Groh-

York yesterday, where he met his
fiancee and they were to go to buy
furniture for their new home which
they we're fitting out. They enter
ed a Broadway store and made a
large number of purchases, but
when Mr.. GTohmann came to make
payment on the furniture he found
that his pockets had been picked and
his pocketbook, containing $3.50,
was missing.
Upon hurrying into the street Mr..
Grohmann saw a man board a troll
ley car whom he thought he recog-
niZed as the man who had pushed
against him just before he entered
the store. An officer was summoned
and the fellow was arrested upon
suspicion. Upon being searched,
however no evidence was found that
would warrane him being held and
he was released. Mr.. GrOhmann
was unable to get any other trace
of his missing money.
