'AI’TDKE 01" A YOUNG HORSE
TIIIBF IN THIS CITY.

 

I!” He was Drawn into the slash.- of
the law by leerylnaa George s. Greg-
on, and Chief of Police Vollmer- Ill-rind
‘our Under sum.

Yesterday afternoon George S. Gre-
gory. the East Norwalk liveryman, was
sssnby samsar. reporter driving in
.Rowsytoo, and shortly afterward meta
young than trying to sell a turnout to a
residentln that place. The man could
not strike a bargain, however. Later he
scouted Mr. Gregory and asked him if
he did not wish to buy the rig, tfl’ering
, it to him for 3125. Mr. Gregory replied
that he thought he could find a purchas-
er in South Norwallr, and told the man
. to get into the carriage and follow him.
Mr. Gregory led the way to his stables,
~y ,where he told the man he thought the
horse needed feeding; that it would be
’ ‘ best to unhsrness him, and leave him
' there while they drove to South Nor-

walk to if the proposed purchaser
, could begged The follow said he was

aNew/ York cigar drummer, and that

the urnont belonged to him and his

bro , er, they. having bought it in Hart-

ford. When Mr. Gregory suggested

thaths would like to make something

out of the sale, the young man said he
, would sell the horse and carriage for two

if he could have the money before 7
. ’ o’clock, and that Mr. Gregory could keep
' whatever amount he could get over that
price. Be represented that he was in a
tight fix and had to raise the money, but
he waeso eager to sell that the livery-
man’s suspicions were still greater arous-
ed.
On Washington street Mr. Gregory

stopped his horse, leavrng the fellow to

hold him, while he went around the cor-
_ nor to South Main street. Here he

found Chief of Police Vollmrr, and

related to him his Bllspiclonll that
the turnout had been stolen.
The Chltf directed Mr Gregory to

drive back to his stable with the mun,
and he would shortly follow as the pre-
tended purchaser. If there was suffi-
cient grounds, he would place the men
under arrest as a horse thief. About 4
o’clock the officer reached the stable,
and taking a card from his pocket asked
Mr. Gregory if a bay horse had been
stabled there. The liveryman replied
that the man seared near him had the
only one he knew anything about, and
the chief went inside to see the animal.
Here he looked over the horse and then
at thecard he still held in his hand,
which noslensibly described the animal
more particularly, but which, really,
was the description of another horse,
and asked the man win-rs he was from.
The latter replied that he came from
New Haven. The chief said he
thought he was the man ‘iltl
was looking for. The [CI/0V made light
of his artist, retaining the utmost corn-
posure, and agreeing to accomptrn y the
chief willingly. He gave him the name
of his uncle.i,who. he said, could be
telegraphed to and would verify his state-
ments regarding the ownership of the
turnout. When the telegraph office was
reached,ihowevrr, the man admitted his
story was false, and told the chief his
name was George E. Maltby, Jr., aged 22
years, the sin of wealthy parents,
his father. he claimed. being worth over
8100,000but had disowned him on ac-
count of bisdissipated habits He said
the horse was stolen from Liveryrnan
Urn, of New Haven.

Late in the afternoon the New Haven
ofllcerslirardnf the arrest, and Dori-i:-
tlve Cowles came down here ilflli told
Chief of Police Vollmcr he would like in
take the man back with him and have
him tried there. This the chief rifused
toagrse to,“ he thought Mr. (lit-gory
and himself were the proper persons to
rsoelvelthe reward offered by the suits,

, rather than the New Haven officials, who
haddons nothing whatever to capture

« him, not even sending word that a ram-
ont had been stolen in that place.

Maltby told Mr. Gregory that ho wmi
oasesslndent at Colonel Roberts” Mil.-
tsry Institute on East avenue. This
statement was verified when a Summer.
reporter called on Mr. Roberts this
morning. The young man left the
- «heal, Mr. Roberts said, four years ago
. lint June. after pursuing his studies
there about a year and a half. Previous
* to coming here he had been on board
‘ thenciiooishlp St. Mary's, and returned

tothe sea, llr. Roberts thinks, after he

left school. He was abrlgbt boy and
well behaved while he attended thoin-
mints. The first time Mr. Robert» had
seen Malthy since he left Norwiilk was
when he drove up in front of the school
building yesterday afternoon. When
urged toalight and stay to dinner, the
young man said he was pressed for
have. and declined the invitation. Ifr.

timon being given by Mr. GWI‘LChlef
Volime and Maltby, substantially as re—
lated above. Msltby said his home was

commission merchant residing at 22
West One Hundred and Thirtieth street.
He said he had trouble and left home
about a month ago, having over $200 in
his possession. This he had nearly spent
in traveling to New Haven, New London,
Boston, Providence and back to New
Haven, remaining a few days in each
place. He engaged the team Thursday,
and while taking it back to the stable.
after a ride to Savin Rock, conceived the
idea that he would drive toward his home
and sell the rig if he could. Justice Bar-
ret, on recommendation of Prosecuting
Attorney Taylor, found probable
cause, and bound Malthy over to the
Superior'Court for trial next Tuesday,
bonds being fixed at tlfiOO.

Liveryman Andrew Ure identified the
carriage and horse as his property
and started with it for New Haven.

The trap set for the young thief was
very cleverly con vrd and carried out
by Mr. Gregory, ded by Chief Vollnier.
It wasva piece of work worthy of Pinker-
ton, and will add fresh female to the
chief’s record as a capturer of horse
thieves, and entities Mr. Gregory to the
greatest praise as a shrewd, far-seeing
man, Each played his part so well that
Maltby, it seems, never once suspected
that he was being led into the meshes of
the law.

BASEBALLISTS GIVE A BALL.

 

The South Nonalh’a and Their Friends
Dance at Alton Hall;

Success attended the first annual con-
cert snd ball of the South Norwallr Base-
ball club, at Arion Hall, last night. The
affair was attended by over two hun-
dred friends of the members and all
were highly pleased with the manner
in which the event was conducted,
which was owing, no doubt, to the ef-
forts of the members to make it as
pleasant as possible for the large num-
ber of their friends in attendance. The
costumes of many of the ladies were
very handsome. Professor Heine's or-
chrstra IUI'DIBIit-fi music, and previous
to the dancing rendered four concert
selections, which were highly appreci-
ated. Then James Fitzgerald, the cigar.
dealsre-locuiiomst, and a ball player
himself of considerable note, having par-
ticipated in two or three games this
summer, gave an original poem, com-
posed by himself, in which something
nice was said about each member of the
club. The selection received such a
hearty encore that the popular rrcita~
tionlst was obliged to respond, giving a
brief humorous selection, which was
also Well received.

On account of the late hour of begin~
ning the dancing, the grand march and
a Saratoira lanciers were omitted, and

begun with a waltz. Many of the num-
bers were dedicated to the lull teams,

last evening when a number of the
members boarded the 7:10 express train
to attend the opening of the Ramblers’
new rooms on Fairlisld avenue in the

crowd of wheelmsn assembled. among
whom were "pedalers" from Danbury,

The reception committee did their work
thoroughly and well, adding much in the
success of the creation. The rooms of
the club are handsomely appointed, ar-
ranged for comfort as well as beauty.
The suite consists of a parlor, smoking
and reception room, and hillard room,
with a large hall where members can
safely house their wheels. The parlor is
furnished with the latest style plush fur-

adorn the walls, and a brnssels carpet
adds a finishing touch to the room. The
reception room is finished in oak and
fitted with oak furniture. Tbs‘billiard

the evening refreshments were served

Brothers’ liquor license case, the grant

the same is recited, with costs to the ap-
pellant. This means that the decision of
the County Cornnliisioners is reversed
and that McNamara Broihers' license is
revoked. Colonel Russell Frost "'09in
simllinr notice, last night.

The history of the remonsirancein this
close is of more than usual interest.
About five or six years ago, when there
was a saloon on the corner of Pine and
North Main streets and another one
where the present one isof McNamara
Brothers, people living in the vicrnlly of
the Hollow, and others having topsss
through there, remonstraird against the
two saloons, very largely on account of
the noise and disturbance there and the
and the annoyance which pissers-by suf-
fered from men in the vicinity of the sa-
icons and from the beer kegs and barrels
which obstructed the sidewalks. A
hearing was held and the Board of
County Commissioners then acting, de-
cided the place to bsunsuitsble. This
was before the new Congregational
church was built upon the present site.
No saloon was there until the application
for a license made by the McNamara
Brothers a year ago last spring. The
publication of the application dilI not
come to the attention of the members of
the Congregational choral, and before
they know"! the application the iii-4min
was granted and the saloon opened. As
soon as the application for a new licensi-
was undo the following fall. a year ago,
a remonstrance was made by llev. ll. ll.
Beard, and rignwi largely by thoso- irib rv
salad in the church. Thus was great
delay on the part of lheilollnlv (Jum-
missioners in fixing it date for hearing
this remor stream and a trial
was not had before them
until last February. After that hearing
