Former Subtreasury Teller in Chicago
Under Arrest.
THE AMOUNT STOLEN IS $173,000
Secret Service Men Worked for Year
on Case - Reporter, Now Head of »
Detective Agency, Works Up the
Evidence Which Leads to Arrest of
George W. Fitzgerald.
Chicago (Special). —The mystery
of the theft of $173,000 from the
United States subtreasury a year and
a half ago, one of the largest losses
the government has ever suffered in
this manner, is believed to have been
solved by the arrest of George W.
Fitzgerald. © Others are believed to
have been implicated in the crime,
which for months completely baflled
government secret service men.
Fitzgerald was an assoiting teller
under Assistant United States Treas
urer Wm. Boldenwreck. Suspition at
the time of the theft, February 20,
1907, rested on him, but go plausible
was his story and so intense his ap-
parent interest in discovering the real
culprit that interest ceased to center
in him. Much work was done on
the theory that the crime had been
perpetrated by a colored man. ;
Meanwhile Fitzgerald was dis-
charged from the government employ
for culpable negligence in allowing
such a theft to be consummated un-
der his very eyes.
For Big Amounts,
The money stolen had been used
and was tied in packages, some hav-
ing been marked for destruction at
Washington. Any of the bills would
readily have passed anywhere except
for their large denomination, None
of the bills was under $500 and some
were of the $1,000 and $5,000 de-

ON RETIRED LIST
Rear Admiral Makes Plea For Big
Navy,
L.ake Mohonk, N. ¥Y. (Special). -
Far from grim warships and the
sea, where he spent nearly half a
century in the service of his country,
Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, of
the United States Navy, who Is at
this quiet mountain hotel, reached
the age limit of 62 years Tuesday
and passed from the ranks of the
country's active sea fighters,
All through the day the hotel was
thronged with admirers of "Fighting
Bob," as his hosts of friends delight
to call him, eager to congratulate
him on the sixty-second birthday
and to wish him many more happy
and useful years. Telegrams by the
score reached him from all parts of
the country, all expressing felicita-
tion and affection for the man who
has done so much to huild up the
American Navy.
Asked regarding the probable ef-
fect of the cruise of the fleet around
the world, which he commanded
from Hampton Roads to San Fran-
cisco, the first stage of the long
journey, the Admiral said that he
believed its Influence was already be-
ing felt. That the cruise would add
more than mere prestige to the Uni
ted States as a world power the Ad-
miral asserted in no uncertain tone,
He sald it was the greatest disap-
pointment of his life that he was un-
able to keep the command at least
until he could visit Japan, where he
has a great many friends among the
statesmen of that country.
No Danger Of War.
Questioned in regard ito the war
talk between the two countries, the
Admiral said that there never would
be any war unless the United States
forced it npon Japan He said the

The latter, upon his discharge from
the Subtreasury, stated that his
whole fortune consisted of $600 ht

$1,000. His wife had a $700 inter

superintenden
pany, a busin
and public spirit, reported Mr
Boldenweck, it is said, that Fitzeraid
had approached him with a proposi-
i to pass several $1,000 bills
“With your big business connec |
tions,” Fitzgerald is alleged to have |
argued to Colonel Ganno, “fon can
easily pass them. There is $500 in it]
for you.” i
Fitzgerald is roported to have de-|
clared that he had a roll of similar |
bills “that would choke a horse.’
After conferring with Mr. Bolden-
weck Colonel Ganno continned nego-
tiations with Fitzerald with the re-|
sult that, by prearrangement, Detec-
tive Young says, several! witnesses!
were secretly present when the for
mer teller, it is said, proposed to pass |
the two $1,000 bills to Colonel
Ganno.
“IT will bring two,” Fitzgerald
alleged to have said “for yon can
get rid of two just as well as one.”
So far as is known Fitzgerald was |
not seen to pass any of the
bills, !
From the moment of Colonel Gan- |
no's first interview with the Assis |
tant United States Treasurer, it is
said, Mr. Young or some of his men
shadowed Fitzgerald. The trail, it is |
intimated broadly, involved others, |
not only in helping Fitzgerald to dis
pose of the money alleged to have
been stolen, but in the very act of |
his having extracted it from the |
Treasury vaulis and in the later cov- |
ering of tracks. Who these persons |
were, those
state they are not yet

to arrest Fitagerald at this time, as
further evidence was not only want:
ed against him, but developments
were expected which would eonclu-
sively involve others, However, it is
stated that those. under suspicion
bad obtained an inkling that unto-
ward developments were going for-
ward and it was deemed best to waste
no time in securing the man charged
with being the principal.
The case being one properly under
federal jurisdiction, a United States
judge was first sought, but none
could be found. Assistant State's
Attorney Barbour was next approach-
ed, and shortly after midnight this
morning, Judge Chetlain, at his
home, issued a bench warrant for
the arrest of Fitzgerald, charging
him with the larceny of $173,000
