concerned in forging poatomee money or-
dera Hyluud was taken before United
States Commissioner Shields and was
commitmd to Ludlew street jail in default
of 010.000 ball for examination next Mon-
day. llyleud was arrested on awarrant
issued by United States Commisdicuer
Henry Keeper of Newark, 0.. which
charges that on Jan. 8. 1804, he attempted
to cash a money order for 8100 purporting

The pestotllce inspectors allege that By-
land was an accomplice of Leroy W. Har-
rie. who awindled a number of western
pestcflloes out of‘ €100 each several years
ago by a clever trick. Byland is about 65
years old and lives with his family at 250,

Manufacturing company he has been de-
ing a business in gas burners in his cities

claims to here been a member of the po
lice force of this city 20 years ago. The
IIItberitlea are on the track of others of
thdgang. and further arrests are expected
at any time.
Created a Sensation.
The crime for which Byland is arrested
and the developments which followed the
arrest of Harris created a great aenmticn
at the time. Harris was chief clerk at
Station L, Third avenue and One Hun-
dred and Twenty-fifth street. for five
years and was thoroughly familiar with
the details of pestofllce work. especially in
regard to the Issuing and payment of
money orders. One day In January. 1804.
there presented himself to the postmaster
at Noreten Heights, Conn, a man pur-
porting to be a postoiliee Inspector and‘
bearing a letter from the first assistant
postmaster general. The letter stated that
in view of the small amount of business
at the office the issuing of money orders
would be discontinued. The postmaster
was ordered to deliver to the bearer of the
letter the blank money order book. the
