PHIPPS' PLUNDER
A CELLAlt CULL OF STOLEXt UOOlJH.
rresii Developments In the Uigastlc Kobbery
at the Pluladelpbls AlmahoaM His
Landlady Implicated.
The profound sensation produced by tlie
arrest and flight of the lato head of
Blockley almshouse cave place to vague
speculation concerning the greater sensa
tion of which it was thought to be but the
ptecursor. Major Phiiiis' friends were
amazed beyond measure that he should
have confirmed the presumption of guilt
by precipitate flight, and unanimously
characterized his course as unspeakably
foolish as well as fatal. The supposition of
suicide was actually indulged by many and
Major Fhipps' attorney, Georgo W. Har
kins, pronounced this theory not altogeth
er improbable. "When Mr. Rowan told
the major Thursday night that he could
not go bail for him after the hearing," re
marked Mr. Harkins yesterday, " ho ap
peared very much dejected and broken
up. His whereabout is as much a mys
tery to me as to anyone else." Precau
tious were taken to prevent Major Fhipps'
escape from the country, the belief having
gained ground that he intended to take a
steamer for Europe. The following de
spatch was scut to the chiefs of tho police
departments in New York, Biooklyu and
Boston :
"Please send detectives to steamers
going to Europe ; search for and arrest
for embezzlement Major Ellis P. Phipps,
who is about five feet eight inches in height,
and whose weight is 225 pounds ; walks
very erect, full, round, handsome face,
medium complexion, bark hair and eyes,
hair thin'on top of head. He is probably
accompanied by his wife. She is a short
woman. Inquire of parties having charge
of steamers that left yesterday or early
this morning, and wire roe. Major Phipp?,
late superintendent of Philadelphia alms
bouse, left, yesterday, forfeiting his bail,
and is now a fugitive from justice. Make
every effort to capture him. If you suc
ceed, hold him until officers and papers
are sent on."
The mysterious movements of certain
members of the Committee of One Hundred
about the Central station, give rise to
much speculation, .which was not at all
abated when GurdiansRuhl and Huggard,
Messrs. Rudolph Blaukcuburg,E. D. Lock
wood, Joel J. Bailey, Franois C. Reeves,
John Fields and Mr. Barlow took car
riages for the almshouse. About the mid
dle ol the afternoon tho object of the ceu
turious mission was partially disclosed in
the swearing out of a search warrant fur
tho premises of Mr. Adams, 3419 Walnut
street, where Phipps had recently taken
up his residence. Guardian Ruhl follow
ed the detectives to the cellar, which was
the first part of the house visited, and
thero he witnessed a sight that well nigh
took his breath away. He had been pre
pared to find almshouse goods in the house,
but such an assortment and such quanti
ties of stores as ho saw piled upboforehim
struck him dumb with amazement. The
cellar was almost full or goods. Borne of
tho principlo articles wore : Three barrels
of granulated whitosugvr, eight hams, ono
case canned tomatoes, ona casccaunod
asparagus, one gross boxes sardines, six
brooms, five wash tubs, several dozen gob
lets, six largo c'riua meat dishes, one bar
rel cups and saucers, threo bushel pota
toes, one roll oil cloth, several dozen nap
kins, six table cIoths,one dozen jar pickles,
six bottles catsup, six rolls cotton wad
ding, two clothes horses, four cases starch,
six boxes washing soap, six bars castile
soap, five pounds mar Taroni, ten pounds
oatmeal, one roll mosquito netting, lot of
fruit and vegetable dishes, ton pounds of
currants, five gallons vinegar, five gallons
molasses, lot pots of pans andgiiddics, six
bundles yarn, large bundle sheets and
towels, lot of crockery ware,boxes of spices,
three tubs lard, six dozen eggs. In addi
tion to the provisions and household uten
sils there were about ten tons of coal in
tho cellar, concerning the ownership of
which thcro is a doubt. Mrs. Adams said
sho bought it, but sho failed to produce
any bills. Among other things were some
largo purple grapes, grown on the alms
house property. A dish of these stood ou
the dining table of the Walnut street
house wheu the detectives entered.
Guardian Ruhl sent over to the alms
house and had tbo employes come aud
identify the goods. Then he ssarched the
neighborhood for furniture cars to carry
them back to the paupers from whom
they bad been stolen. Detective Peter
Miller jumped into tho hack and was
driven to the almshouse to look for Mrs.
Adams. She was found at the institutiou
and was brought to the bouse weeping
and bewailing her fate. Between her sobs
she denied knowing that anything had
becu wrong. She said tho goods had been
brought by the major and how was a poor
woman like her to know anything about
them. Nobody could tell anything but
the major. When she became somewhat
composed, sho said that she rented tho
house about a mouth ago. She had been
housekeeper for Major Phipps and his
wife for seven years in the almshouse.
Mr. and Mrs. Phipps had moved iu but 1
few days before he was arrested. Sho de
clared that everything in the house, w'ih
exception of the things in the cellar.eithor
belonged to her or wore Mrs. Major Phipps'
private property.
The detectives searched through the
house but found nothing else that could
be identified as belonging to the alms
house. A locked trunk was found on the
the third story, but as no key could be
found to fit the lock it was decided to let
it remain for the nrcsent. In the mean
time Guardian Ruhl had succeeded in find
ing two furniture cars aud the work of re
moval began. A dozen iumatts were
brought from the almshouse and put to
work. After several hours' labor tbe ar
ticles were out of the house, and no les3
than five carloads of supplies were return
ed to the almshouse. There they wcro locked
iu a room until to-day when a com
plete inventry was made. This will be
a. work of many hours. I was estimated
that a good deal more than $1.00 worth of
supplies bad been taken by the retiring
superintendent to stock his new boarding
house.
While the work of removal was going
on Detective Peter Miller asked Mrs.
Adams to accompany him to tho Central
station. This threw tho woman into a
a fresh paroxysm of grief. She was
finally persuaded to compose herself and
was handed into the hask, which had been
in waiting. On arriving at the Central
station she was taken to Chief Giviu's
room in the second story, and tbe mem
bers of tho citizens' committe who had
been interested in the almshouse investi
cation were sent for. Mrs. Adams at first
refused to make any statement and paced
tho room in great agitation. At last,
overcome, she burst out : " My God, I
can!t bear all this." She then replied to
questions by Chief Givin, Rudolph Blank-
enburgand uoaraian uoumau. nx ursi
she denied knowing anything about tho
goods except that Major Phipps told her
he had bought them. She. did not know
anything about his having gone away
until the next morning. She bad remark
ed to Mrs. Fhipps : " What a lot of goods
ea to juts, rnipps ; - nut ii.uiBuuu
your busband is sending," and she replied
that ' ' Mr. Fhipps had some money and he
was investing it that way." Mrs. Adams
stuck to this story and Mr. Blankenburg
told her she must abide the consequence.
" She was very much excited," said Mr.
Blankenburg afterward, "and as we
couldn't get the truth out of her we told
her we knew she was not telling the truth
and that she must abide the conse
quences." Mr. Blankenburg and others
then left, but they had not gone half a
square when they were recalled by a mes
senger from Chief Givin, who said that
she had made up her mind to tell 'the
truth.
She then made the following state
ment :
Mr. Phipps came to me and said that be
would buy these goods, and he had them
sent to the store-house at the almshouse.
I supposed they came from the store.
O'Neill, McBrido and Mitchell, I believe,
took tho goods from the store. They
wcro in the store-room at the almshouse
about a day or two. Four barrels of sugar
came. Thcro were cases of canned fruit.
The shoes never left tho almshouse. The
men asked me where to put tbe goods,
and I said in tbo cellar. I told them at
the almshouse to put them in the cellar.
I knew these goods come from the alms
house. Nothing but the furniture and the
above goods came. I think Mr. Phipps
opened some of these goods in the cellar.
Mrs. Phipps was. to give me $20 a week
for board, washing and ono room. After
wards (about tho middle of August) she
said to me that her husband had lost
everything aud she wanted to help him
along. They were to furnish groceries,
flour, etc., and one girl, aud pay half the
rent. I saw Mr. Phipps about half-past
eight ou Thursday night. He and his
wife left together. She said she was going
to the institute with him. I do not know
anything of them afterwards. I was told
next morning at the institute tbat'Mr.
Phipps had been arrested and I could not be
lieve it. I think they took a valise, as I
missed it from their room. They could
have got this valise without my knowing
it. They could get up without my know
ing it, as my room was the third gjtory
frout and theirs was the second story back.
I wits employed by Major Phipps as house
keeper, iu cbargo of his private apart
ments and overseeing the boarding of the
doctors. I was a nurse for one year and
seven mouths, and since that time house
keeper for the major at $25 a month. Ho
owed me $100 and I took a set of furni
ture in payment. I saw the bill for tbe
furniture and kuow it was Mrs. Phipps'.
The major cautioned me to divulge noth
ing, to say nothing about hfm to anybody
on Thursday. Ho frequently told me that
ho had bought many things for his own
use and spoko frequently of economizing
on that account. I saw no carriage that
night at the door. They never said to me J
that they were going away.
Mrs. Adams, formerly matron of the
almshouse, and employes of the almshouse
named O'Neill, McBrido and Mitchell
made affidavit that they had removed tbe
goods from tho almshouse to Mrs.
' Adams'.
Undeterred by tho murmurs of the ap
proaching storm of condemnation tho ex
superintendent of the almshouse has, dur
ing the present year, expended with his
old timo profligacy the money appropri
ated to tho care of the city's poor. Tho
September warrants in payment of tbe
almshouso contractors and employees
havo not yet been countersigned by tho
controller, but the record of thoso of for
mer months already paid by the city treas
urer shows that the 6x-superintendent has
paid out the city's money at so liberal a
rate that his successor will be badly
cramped for funds, and will, in fact,
scarcely bo able to run the establishment
until next January without an additional
appropriation from councils.
The appropriation to the guardians of
the poor lor the year 18152 was $422,118.
Of this amount Major Phipps has suc
ceeded iu spending, exclusive of the Sep
tember warrants, considerably over $300,
000. In some of the items, such as those
for salaries, the amount expended has, of
course, been based upon tho monthly pro
rata; but it was upon the payments to
contractors and purcbaso of real or ficti
tious supplies that the major's genius in
expenditure most brightly shone.
Especially have tbe inroads been heavy
upon the items of the appropriation which
were designed to purcbaso indispensable
supplies, such as food, fuel and clothing,
for the iumates.
Seventy-two Cents Left ror CoaL
Up to August 15 tho coal contractors,
1. R. Black, Charles D. Norton & Co., and
Campbell, Tucker & Co., had drawn upon
warrants duly signed by Major Phipps,
Pi csident Chambers and secretary Wil
liamson, and upon bills approved by the
argus eyed storekeeper, Brown, and the
committee of tho board, $18,999,28. Tho
coal appropriation for the year was $20,000
so that Superintendent Scarborough has
been left but seventy-two cents to pur
chase coal for the winter months. Of the
gas and oil item of $11,000, $7,034 have
been paid out, leaving a balance of but
$3,0GG for tho last five months of tho year.
Other appropriations show a similar
propoition of reckless expenditure and dis
honesty. Tho revelations concerning the
almshouse peculations havo directed at
tention to other city departments, and
many rumors are afloat to the effect that
the Phipps exposure is but the beginning
of a scries of general disclosures regard
ing the misappropriation of money in other
quarters, tho details of which, when made
known, will throw the almshouse frauds
far into the shade.
SINGULAR FIKE AT BALT1A1QKIS.
What Startled tbe Operators in the Tele
graph Office.
Tho operators in tbe main office of tho
Western Union telegraph company, in the
Brown building, corner of Baltimore and
Calvert streets, were startled by a crack
line noise as of Are, and on opening the
switch-board a volume of f ame3 burst
forth and it was discovered that fire was
raging upward through the cupola ex
tending above the roof, and through which
all tho wires over one hundred and fifty
in number are conducted into the
office. Several engines of the firo depart
ment were soon at work, and the fire was
speedily extinguished, but not before
every wire leading into tho offioj was
burned off. The wires were temporarily
placed in tho battery-room, and communi
cation was restored in all directions. The
fire did not extond outside of the switch
board and the cupola, and, except the
water, the building was not damaged. The
Western Union occupies tho entire build
ing except the first floor, which is occu
pied by Alexander Brown & Sons, the
owners of tho building, as a banking-
house. A few thousand dollars will cover
tho entire loss. It is not known how the
firo originated.

very little question, but this opinion
is substantiated by facts. Malaria
does not necessarily asean chills and
fever while these troubles usually ac
company it. It often affects tbe Buf
ferer with general lassitude, accom
panied by loss of appetite, sleepless,
ness, a tired feeling and a high (ever
tbe person afflicted growing weaker
and weaker, loses flesh day after day,
until he becomes a mere skeleton,
a shadow of his former self.
Malaria once havisg lahl its
hold upon tho human frame, tho
door of the systea is thrown opan
to nervous diseases. The body weak
and enfeebled absorbs no nourish
ment, but subsisting upon i tacit,
tbe digestivo organs no longer per
form their tunclons; tbe liver be
comes torpid, and other organs
falling to do their routine work,
speedily- become disordered, and
dissolution ana death are apt to
ensue.

tion in every respeo-, but especially a an ac
curate tlme-keepet lor it has kept WITHIN
THE MINUTE with our Standard Railroad

best 1 hava ever had for keeping timo. I liavo
bad it now for nearly TWO 1 EARS: It runs

timo keeper, for ordinary use, turned out ot
any watch factory in tho world.

Ono year ago. or longer, I purchased from
Mr. Louis Weber, a Lancaster Watch of the
'West End" grade. It has been OX THE
MINUTE EVER SINCE with our Ruilroad
Time, and as a timepiece cannot readily lm
excelled. I could not get any higher-priced
watch that would bo more satisfactory. A
watch that will stand tho test of RAILROAD
USE so well as these Lancaster movement
do. must be a good one. Xhia is tbe otily watch
I havo ever carried that has dona anything
like its good work, and I don't want anvtblng
better. W. F. WELCH AN 3,
