early last year veronach has run detec-
tives race through Cuba, Mexico,
Texas. California and Indiana They
canped on his trail several times In
various parts of the country, but he
finally succeeded in eluding them. [
But for the boastful nature OF a pros
burg who had thought 30 well OF vero-
nach's money box that to become part
owner he gave him $4,000 In cash and
his daughter In marriage In lieu Of s14,--
600 more, the gypsy fiddler might still be
at large In the Smoky city. The deli
catessen proprietor felt 80 proud OF this
wonderful son-in-law and the interest he
obtained in the money machine that he
simply had to confde the matter TO all
his customers, including the policeman
on the beat. This led to Voronach's ar
rest by the Pittsburg police on suspi-
cion. When the New York detectives
arrived with warrants and extradition
papers the dellcatessen man, stu SUBJ
timely trustful, engaged lawyer and
sought to stay the proceedings by APP
plying TO the Pittsburg courts for a writ
of habeas' corpus.
The detectives said veronach had told
them on the train that he supposed this
would be the end OF his swindling
schemes and he might as we'll plead
guilty and be sent to Sing Sing to join
his oonfederates But I wish you could
let me 60" they said he added In re-
gretful tone, "for I could still get that
$4,000. because the old man believes as
much as ever in our little box"

YENDER OF MONEY
MACHINE IN TOMBS
Louis veronach, Alleged
Gypsy Swindler, Brought
From Pittsburg.

Louis Veronach, q Hungarian gypsy
violinist alleged to be the leader Of a
band OF swindlers who during the last
few years are said to have taken In

money machine game. cleaning up more
than 100000, arrived here yesterday
from Pittsburg In the custody Of Detec-
tives Mccoy and Gegan. They went to
that city to arrest him on warrants is
sued by Judge Mulqueen In General SEES
sions April ., 1918, in which he was
charged with grand larceny and. acting
In concert with nine others in swindiinE
operations.
veronach was arraigned yesterday be-
fore Judge William H Wadhams in
General Sessions and, since jumping
bail is an accomplishment that has been
displayed by him on several occasions.
he was remanded to the Tomhs without
bail.
The shaggy haired vioiinist, though
capable OF earning a respectable living
as a professional musician. Is said to
have been unable to resist the lure OF
separating simple folk from their
money while he found that there were
many OF them who had still to learn
that currency notes are turned out by
Uncle Sans Treasury and not by pat
snted money chests.
Veronach, variousiy known as Sam
uel Gersy. Louis Krol and George
Batoni. is also wanted by tho police in
Chicago for a $500 swindle a year and
a half ago in which he Is said to have
been implicated, with other members Of
his band He Jumped $1,000 bail bond
and escaped prosecution on the Chi
cago charge. According to the police
records, VsronaclA under one or another
or his several aliases. was involved with

die IN Pennsylvania, another in this city
In which he IL said to have defrauded
q man named wallus out Of $4,000 and
still another perpetrated upon a man
named Carl Schultz in Port Jervis, from
whom $4,000 was alleged to have been
taken. All these swindles took place
within the last year and a half and the
money making machine is said to have
eerved as tho gilded bait for each one.

opposition OF Mcclure. II Is believed he
might renominate Judge Gibbs, If the
Republicans would take Judge Schulz,
Those who are urging this sort of
combination say that, in spite of the fact
that both Judges are Democrats, the
Republicans would have nothing to lose
