His second theft, in 1905, was

His second theft, in 1905, was
one of $17.500.
GALAXY began to disintegrate,
morally. A beautiful woman.
Valentine Merelli, fell in love
with him, believing him to be a
count.
1t was his fascination for her
that brought about Gallay's
downfall, for he suddenly re-
solved that he would steal ire
mendous sum and fly with her
from Paris, to some foreign place,
where they could live together
openly.
On July II, 1905, Galaxy had
a bank clerk take 100000 of the
banks money to his home adj
dress. Five days later he car
ried home $4,000 one evening
and six days later, he topped it
all by taxing home with him
$4,000.
How to leave France without
exciting the suspicion of Lepine's
police seemed an easy problem
for Galaxy to solve. If he left by
the ordinary steamship routes he
might be captured, and so he
chose the daring plan of renting
a yacht! Within a few hours
they were at sea.
And then came the discovery
at the bank: and, in other circles.
the story of the sudden disap-
pearance of the Baron de Gravel.
Lepine's first move-as always
the simplest-was to put the pho
tographs of Galaxy and the baron
together and discovered they were
one and the same man!
Then came the discovery that
the baron" had rented the yacht
"Catarina" and had sailed away.
With his magnificent police
system and the arrangements ne
had always had in force with the
telegraph companies of the world,
whereby, at few moments mo-
tice, he could communicate with
every port on the planet, he had
simply to give the short order:

Valentine Morell, the beautiful
woman for whom Jean Galaxy
(insert at bottom) stole $780,
600. With her he expected to
escape from Paris.
"Cable the ports"
Then it was only a question of
waiting for Gallay's yacht to en-
ter harbor, somewhere in the
world, for fuel and food!
This harbor happened to be
Bahai, Brazil. Feeling perfectly
secure Galaxy, sure that he had
Outwitted Lepine and his men,
sailed into the port and ordered
coal!
And WITHIN FIFTEEN MIN
UTES he was under arrest, to-
gether with the woman. Nearly
$15O,OOO was found in the cabin!
Galaxy was taken back to Paris
and, only few weeks ago, he
completed his term of seven
years. Mile. Merelli was acquit-
ted when Lepine discovered that
Gallay had begun to steal from
the bank before he met her, and
that 1t was only on the boat that
he had confessed to her that he
was thief.

THE MYSTERIES or PARIS--HOW
THE GREAT LEPINE SOLVED THE
"CAY BARON DE CRAvAL" CASE

'The Mystery of the Policeman
Who Stole Hundreds of Thou
sands of Dollars''-This is No. A
of the great Paris mysteries
which Chief of Police Lepine has
selected for the Times symposium
of the greatest cases which this
famous flesh-and-blood Sherlock
Holmes worked out.
BY WILLIAM SHEPHERD.
PARIS, Oct. 27.-ean Galaxy
was in the police service, under
the great Lepine, for six years,
and was the son Of police cap
tain, so that he was thoroughly
versed, as he thought, in the
methods Of the great detective.
But, when he stole nearly two
hundred thousand dollars from
bank and tried to pit his wits
against those Of Lepine, he was
outwitted at the first turn.
1t was like this:
Galaxy, after his detective and
police experience, got a position
i'm a large bank i'm Paris, and it
was not long before he began to
notice how easily he could get
away with large sums of the
banks money without discovery.
1t was in July, 1904, that he fin
ally made his first trial to outwit
the bank. 1t was complete sue
cess, for he took 81, 800 without
discovery.
Galaxy was married, but he did
not take the money home to his
wife for fear she would be sus-
piciOus. The money went on the
race tracks, Of Sundays, and in
the cafes, of nights. When the
sun set over Paris, Galaxy BIOS
somed from a bank clerk into a
cultured man about town, known
as the Baron de Graval.
