PUTNAM

Arthur B. Hamlin. Putnam inn
 clerk, whom police of several states
 have been seeking for months, was
 brought back here Monday by County
 Detective William E. Jackson, and
 presented before Judge Geissler in the city court. The proceedings consisted
 merely Of the reading of the charge
 against Hamlin, his pleading guilty
 to embezzlement and the order of the
 court that he be bound over to the
 superior court. under bonds of $1,000.
 Hamlin was unable to furnish this
 amount and was taken to the county jail at Brooklyn. His trial probably
 will come next months.
 Hanain was arrested in Yonkers, N. Y, and was brought back from that city by Detective Jackson. The pris- oner told an interesting tale of his wanderings and experiences since the night, last spring. when he disappear
 ed from this city, taking with him sev- eral hundred dollars from the safe of the hotel where he was employed. He hired a car to drive from Put nam to Providence, where he went tc the DofTance hotel, he says, and reg istered under the name of West. He claims to have remained in Provi- dence during the forenoon of the. day following his departure from Putnam and went from that city to New York where he met woman friend.
 Hamlin, Detective Jackson said told him that the woman ieeced him of practically all the money he, had and left him almost stranded. Ham l lin's narrative of what followed is a description of his getting place as
 3. mess attendant upon the U. s. Army Transport Buford and of making a | trip to France and return. Upon his return to this country, in July, he Transferred to the Prince Frederic Henrich, a steamer iE which he made a trip to Porto Rico.
