Chief Vollmer was Right. _
The New Haven Palladium takes
Chief Vollmer, of South Norwalk, to
task for refusing to deliver, the horse
thief, George Maltby, over to Sergeant
Cowles of New Haven.
At the time of Maltby’s arrest he had
confessed to stealing the horse and was
not arrested “on suspicion” as the Pal-
ladium claims, 'and was without doubt
the capture of Chief Vollmer, who had
ab’ y handled the case. .
The principal reason for the Chief re-
fusing to turn Maltby over to the New
Haven authorities was that he had on a
similar occasion captured a horse thief
and turned him over to the New Haven
police and the complaint had been qui-
etly amended without theChief’s kn owl-
edge, and he had been euchred out of
the $100 reward offered by the state.
It is quite probable that Maltby’s case
would have been settled in the same
manner as his relatives are all said to
be wealthy and the fact that the New
Haven police failed to notify either the
Norwalk or SouthNorwalk officers of
the stealing of the horse led Chief Voll-
mer to believe that if he gave Maltby
into Sergt. Cowles’ hands that would
be the last he would hear of the reward.
Chief Vollmer agreed to turn Maltby
over to Sergt. Cowles provided the lat-
ter would guarantee that the case would
be tried and the reward paid. but this
the astute Sergeant refused to do and
the Chief did right in holding his pris-
oner. -
Ship Canals.
In accordance with a provision of
The river and harbor bill of the last
session the Presldent has appointed a
board of engineers to select the route
for a ship canal to connect the Dela-
ware and Chesapeake Bays. They are
instructed to examine and determine
from the surveys heretofore made by
the War Department the route between
the two estuaries which in their judg—
ment will furnish the greatest facilities
for commercb and be best adapted for
national defense. The report must be
completed within four months and sub-
mitted to Congress.
This initiative step isof importance
in that it indicates that the Baltimore
has been able to interest Congress in
a ship-canal scheme for the benefit of
that city, which will either injure or
benefit Philadelphia as the latter shall
decide or neglect to secure a similar
waterway between Philadelphia and
New York. -
A few of the public spirited business
men of Philadelphia, believing that
ship canals will be a necessity of the fu-
ture, secured an appropriation to defray
the expenses of a. preliminary survey
of a ship canal route to the Raritan,
which is now in progress and will be
completed before the report of the
board appointed by the President can
be prepared and-submitted. For once
Philadelphia is in front of the process-
ion, and ifit gets left behind on the
ship canal question it will be because
there is not enterprise enough among
its business men to carry forward to
completion an undertaking important .
to the growth and maintenance of its
seagoing commerce.
That the proposed ship canals join-
ing~the Hudson to the Chesapeake by
inside waterways may become of im-
mence importance for defensive ‘pur-
poses is beyond dispute, and one. of
them will not be complete without the
other. But the main advantages to be
derived will be commercial, and for
. that reason the commercial interests to
be affected should awake, active and
aggressive. ’
COD—-
Polltlcs in New York.
Politics in New York city are more
mixed than overland not less interest-
ing. The surprise of the campaign
was the indorsement by the State Dem-
ocracy of William L. Strong, the Re-
publican and Committee of Seventy
Candidate for Mayor, after the repre-
. 'sentatives of this body had withdrawn
from the conference at which Strong
was first placed in nomination. The
secret reason for this change of heart
on the pll‘l‘: of Ex—Mayor Grace and his
lieutenants has not been made public,‘
but it probably dates from the failure
of the Tammany leaders to take kindly
to an indorsement of the State Demo-
cracy candidate for Mayor.
Whatever the motive, the result is
that Strong is to be the candidate of
all the sincere opponents to Tammany
rule, and. this means a fair trial of
strength, which will determine whether
Tammany controls absolutely a major-
ity of the voters of New York city.
Against him, h6wever, Tammany has
put up‘a remarkably strong candidate
in Nathan Straus, a popular merchant
’and practical philanthropist of high
character and great ability who, if he
* could run on his merits, should com-
mand the lullcst measure of public
Confidence; But while Mr. Straus has
had no associations with Tammany, he
will have to bear the odiumof Tam-
many’s sins. I , ' ' -.

plications upon the state canvass is as
Yet unknown, but it can hardly be
favorable 'to Hill, whatever it maybe
to the rest of the ticket. The nomina-
tion'of Everitt P. Wheeler for GOvern-
or by the Shepard. faction— of Kings
county; and the more than plain hint of
Grace and Fairchild to the Anti-Snap-
per Damocracy to support Wheeler,
indicate that Hill’s efforts for harmony
have not proved an. unlimited success.
Hill is courageous t.) the extreme of
the heroic and resourceful to the last
degree, but the stars and their courses
seem to be fighting against him in the
present: campaign. If he succeeds in
electing himself in spite” of these adverse
conditions he will have exhibited the
very highest qualities of leadership.
But whatever the final result, New
York city and state are now thastorm
centre of American politics, and
threaten to absorb public attention un-
til 4efter the election, to the exclusion
of every other state in which elections
are to be held, and this not so much
because of the interests at stake as be-
cause of the unexpected and highly
dramatic complications that have devel-
oped since the canvass began.
o
St. Andrew Brotherhood:
The convention of the St. Andrew’s
Brotherhood finished its three days’
work in Washington, on Sunday. An
adverse report on a proposition to_com-
bine the brotherhood with a beneficrary
branch was adopted. Resolutions n‘am-
ing New York, Pittsburg and Buffalo,
respectively, as places for holding the
convention of 1895 were referred to the
committee on resolutions. A resolution
was adopted asking the incoming coun-
cil to procure, if possible, a brotherhood
man who will go to China in response
to the request from BishOp Groves of
Shanghi. A cablegram was received
expressing a preference for Dr. Lud-
low. The steady growth of the Broth-
erhood is shown in the formation of 169
new chapters since September, 1833. A
most encouraging feature .of the years’
growth is the reorganization of twenty
chapters hitherto reported dormant.
On the other hand, sixty-51x chapters
reported active last year have surren-
dered their charters. There are now
1,034 chapters on the active roll. The
treasurer reported receipts for the year
including the balance on hand. Septem-
ber 1, 1893, $19,387.02 ; expenditur es for
the year, exclusive of a balance of
$1,063.69 on hand August 31, 1894, $518,-
323.33. The nominal . assets of the
brotherhood over the liabilities were
given at $4, 546.50.
Elopers Return.
Daniel Perry and Mrs. Eva Sher-
wood, who cloped from the Danbury
fair grounds last week, greatly sur-
prised their friends Saturday by ap-
pearing about their home at Bedding,
as usual. They drove to Mrs. Sher.
wood’s home and a short time later
Perry went to his residence.
From all appearances it is evident
that they have both become reconciled
to their families. Neither will say any.
thing concerning their flight or where
they have been since disappearing to-
gether. Mrs.

Mr. and Mrs. Sherwood went to the
Danbury fair 9. week ago. While there
they met Perry. Mrs. Sherwood and
Perry left Mr. Sherwood for a few
minutes, as the husband supposed. As
they did not return in a reasonable
time‘Sherwood became alarmed and
started to hunt for his wife. He learned
that she and Perry had left on the 3
o’clock train on the New England road.
Pollcy Raid.
At a policy raid in New Haven,
Saturday, the police captured the fol-

fold books apparently in use at the
time of the raid, 7 pocket memorandum
books, containing memoranda of draw-
ings, 75 Western Union telegraph

*A Norwalk Man Found StarvingP in
a Shed at Kingsbridge.
the Late James W. Pan-
A Son _f
- ney of this City.
Groans coming from an authentic on
the Albany post road, Kingsbridge,
New York, at 10 o’clock Sunday morn-
ing, attracted the attention of Police-
mansShea of the Kingsbridge station.
Inside the place he found a white-haired
man lying upon the floor. He was
weak from exposure and lack of food.
His ragged clothing was dirty and of
indefinite age. On his feet were a worn
out pair of shoes which in turn were
covered with almost as badly worn
overshoes. He looked the typical tramp,
An ambulance was summoned from
Fordham'Hospital. When the police-
man and the driver lifted the man they
found that 85 cents in small coins had
fallen out of his pocket. He was re-
moved to Fordham Hospital. _ .
There he said that he had gone into
the outhouse to escape the rain on Sat-
urday and had been too weak to tramp
out on the road again. He said that he
had eaten nothing for the past ten days.
The doctors found that he was suffering
from lack of food, but they doubt that
he has fasted as long as he says. I _
A surprising collection was found in
his pockets, The pockets themselves
were the soundest part of his attire,
and each of them was weighted down
with handfuls of dimes, pennies, and
nickels. Mixed with these were .num-
bers of old coins and pocket pieces.
One of his pockets had been filled to
overflowing, and the 85 cents had rolled
out as he lay on the floor. Many news-
paper clippings giving simple recipes
for various ailments were fished out of
one pocket, and in another was a quant-
ity of pebbles, minerals, and a gold
locket. Besides this there was a bun-
dle of letters and some deeds of prop-
erty in Brooklyn.
The letters were addressed “Brother
Hobart”and signed"Samuel Pinkney.”
They were all of the same character,
and the writer had used every argument
at his command to induce Hobart to re-
turn home and look after some prop-
erty. There seemed to be legal com-
plications which could not be properly
attended to in his absence. The letters
were directed to various points in Con-
necticut and in northern New York and
had been sent from Brooklyn. The 1a-
ter letters were directed to Yonkers
and Mount Vernon, and the man is be-
lieved to have tramped over a good por-
tion of New York and Connecticut.
In another pocket was found a large
roll of bank notes. They had been
rolled up very tightly and tied with a
piece of string. The roll had been
carried so long that the outside bills
were worn and frayed, and they had
evidently shared the vicissitudes of
wind and weather with their eccentric
owner. The doctors at the hosipital
said they had not counted the money.
They also said that they had not exam-
ined the deeds.
They questioned the patient, who
said he was a laborer. They found
him a welteducated man, who used
good language. He said he had been a
school teacher, that his name was How-
old. He would not explain why he
dressed in rags and was starving when
his pockets were full of money. From
the quantity of small coins he had the
police suspect that he had added to his
heard by begging.
After a bath, food, and some sleep, it
was said at the heapital that he was de-
ing nicely. The doctors do not consider
his physical condition serious. He is
not crazy, they say, but his mind may
be weakened from age and his appar-
ently self-imposed hardships.
He seemed to be a miser, but this
does not explain why he neglected to
return and attend to property in which
he evidently owns at least a share. It
is possible that he was tramping home-
ward when weakness forced him to halt
in his journey.
Samuel J .‘ Pinkney was seen by a
Sun reporter, Sunday night at his home
619 Lafayette avenue, Brooklyn. He
did not know Howard Hobart, but
finally said that he had a brother named
Hobart Pinkney, 58 years old, who had
been away for some time.
“I am sure it couldn’t be my broth,-
er,” he said. “If it was, I would be as
anxious to find him as anybody. If he
had any money with him, it couldn’t
have been Hobart.”
Mr. Pinkney said his brother had
been traveling about the state, and
Istarted about a. ' year ago. Then he
guessed it wasn’t quite a year, and
finally admitted that he had seen him
within a considerably shorter time.
Mr. Pinkney would not say where his
brother lived, what his business was,
nor whether he had written to him
latelya
The man is well known in Norwalk,
as the son of the late James W. Pink-
ney. He is non compos mentis. He
had lived here up to several months ago
when he drew what money he had to
his credit in the Savings bank and sud-
denly disappeared, since which time his
whereabouts have been unknown to his
relatives. He is one of the heirs to
property left by his parents, the prop.-
erty being located in this State and
Brooklyn. His father’s “will was so
worded that no portion of the property
could be disposed of without the con-
sent of each of the other heirs. Several
times overtures have beenimade to him
to have. him Sign a paper in order that
the property might be disposed of to
advantage but this he has always re-
fused to do.

The Gaston-Walker Plant.
The long-talked-of fight between Jack
Coston, of New Haven, and Dan Walk
or, of Bridgeport, has been finally ar-
ranged. The match is to be for a purse
of $500 and the gate receipts and mid-
dleweight championship of the state.
Both men have put $100 forfeit up and
the fight will take place about Dec. 1.
It has not been decided whether it will
be fought in New Haven or in Hart-
ford. A Hartford Athletic club has of-
fered to take care of the matter and
the Welcome association of New Ha-
ven is also desirous of having the
“scrap” come off under its auspices.

such as a playwright rarely duplicates

its second year in'the English Metro-

be guessed at from the fact that it has

“The unanimous decision of the officers
,was that, while accepting his repentance
as sincere and heartfelt, the great publicity
;of the sin demanded some public action,
‘so he was suspended from the sacrament

administered when the credit of religion,
