DANGEROUS MAN

Edward Fulton. alais Faulkner
Hall, alias LanlSy Lem. who was ar
rested several weeks ago at Clay
ton after a tussel by Lieutenant Dor
is and Special Officer Hessler. of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company's
force on suspicion of being a "yegg-
man. and on whom was found nitro
glycerine, fuses and dynamite caps,

was the statement made by Fulton to
Postonice Inspector NJ s. Plummer
at the workhouse on Saturday, where
the man is detained on a charge of
carrying explosives from one state 10
another in violation of a Federal
statute.
That the officers were not shot is
due to the fact that Fulton fell and
injured himself. The alledged "yegg"
said that as he and his partner ran
from the officers. they counted the
revolver shots, fired by the officers.
Just as the sixth shot rang out. they
planned to wheel about and draw
their guns on the officers but Just
then Fulton fell on his gun The
other yegg seeing Fulton fall made
his escape.
Fulton in conversation with In
spector Plummer said it was easy
to enter a place in the lower section
OF the state but the effects of the
work made zone sick" This was
caused by the fumes he said, and
caused one to have a bad headache
the next day Fulton also told Mr..
Plummer that his brother. who died
three years ago. was a foreman of
the composing room of the New York
Tribune while in conversation with
the alledged "yegg" Inspector Plum
mer was told how safe was blow
