Among the large number of fakirs and
workers of games tbat were drawn te this
city last week, by reason of tbe oennty fair,
was a delicate looking young man, who
gave his name as Jehn T. Cox. He stepped
at the Olty hotel, and during the week spent
meat of his time at the fslr grounds, where
ha bed queer game oleema kind. In the
evenings he remained around the hotel and
seemed te be a rather pleasant and sociable
young man. BaUirday afternoon he sat
round tbe house, and in the evening, after
dark, atsrted down town. The first place
he stepped was at the hat and furnishing
store of H. L. Beas, wbleh Is managed by
Newton Wlngert He asked te be shown
some neckties, aed finally purchased one for
a half dollar. In payment he presented a
$20 bill and was given $19 60 In change. He
first dropped thn large bill upon tbe counter
but quickly plcktd It up, as well aa the
ebange given him, and put all In bis pocket
Mr. Wlngert as.ted him for tbe note, but he
coolly said he did net have It and made
move te walk off. Jehn B. Nlller was in
the store at the time and saw the trans,
aotlen. Beth he and Mr. Wlngert Insisted
that he had the bill as well aa tbe ebana-e.
Oex finally came te time and drew the $20
bill and the ether money from his pocket.
Seeing tbat he was caught he
banded ever the $19 50 He paid
for the tcektle with a half dollar In
ebange tbat he had and left with the $20
bill in his possession. After he had gene
from the store Mr. Miller went out upon
the street and met Officer Barnheld. He
told tbe officer about the transaction and
ealled his attention te Cox. Barnheld at
once made up his mind that he was a ebange
or "illm-llam" worker and kept his eye
upon him. Cox walked around for a time,
looking Inte dlfferent stores and finally
entered that et Wm. 11. Gast, shoemaker,
near Orange street. Here he asked for a
pair of shoe strings and offered a $20 bill
In payment. Befere he had gene any
farther tbe c nicer took him In charge and
te the station house He was lecked in a
cell, but he begged tbe officer te go at once
te his hotel and get his opium pipe,
tie said tbat he had been addleted te tbe
use of tbe drug, and if compelled te de
without It for any length of time he would
die. A doctor was consulted and he decided
that it was beat for tbe prisoner te have tbe
drug it he had bseu accuttemed te its use.
The whole outfit, consisting of a pipe,
lamp, it), was brought and given te tbe
uiau, who eejnynd the fumes Uurlne the
greater part et Siturday night aud Sunday.
Alter Ccx had been put away his valise
and overcoat were brought from his

bogus Jewelry of all kinds, an old Chinese
oetn, a pair of pennies mounted en sharp
pins and Bprlngs, whleh are used lu
some kind of games, a pair of gray
pantaloons and ether trilling articles. Cox
Is said te ba a fakir of the cleverest kind,
and has worked the ebange game with
success for yearp. His outfit shows that be
la prepared te de work, and $3070 found en
htm Is an iudlaatlen tbat he did net de se
badly here. It is deubtlul whether his
real name la Cox. He was at the Easten,
Md,, fair last week and n telegram, whleh
he received there, and was found In a seared
through tils overooatoamo addressed te
Warwick, and was seut from Baltimore
It read " All O. K., Teut. " Among tbe
members of bis fraternity Cox la known as

elty, aHklng him te come te Lanoaster at
once and signed It " The Kid. " Cox lived

Instead of rum, whleh he said would have a
better effect. This Cox did and found much

On Saturday tbe Intklliornekr pub
llahed an aoeount of tbe operations et a
youeg man who was arrested here by
Constable Barnheld en Friday evening aa
a forger. At tbat time tbe prisoner gave
his name aa Samuel B. Sleesar, but later
developments showed tbat he Is a liar as
welt as a forger and tbat his real name Is
Franklin Brlcker. Samuel HTesaerls the
name et a respectable man, who Uvea In
Oonewace township, Daupbin oennty, and
Brlcker has been sailing around forging
notes and doing ether dishonest aeta under
his name.
On Saturday evening Constable Sel. U.
Shenk came te tula elty with a warrant,
lssur-d by Squire Gruber, el Conewsge
township, Bsuphln oeunty, for tbe arrest
erisncker. The charge Is forgery and the
complainant Is Jacob K. Shenk, a veiy
reputable eltlssn of that neighborhood. It
la alleged that en tbe 8'h of the present
month, BrlckPr ferged the names of Mr,
Shenk and Samuel Slesser te a note for
$125 whleh was titled Palmyrs, Lebanon
oeunty. Brlcker took the note te the
Unmmelstewn bank and asked te have It
discounted. The cashier knew at onee that
the note was a forgery and refused te give
any money en IL Brlcker then took It te
Palmyra, where he added tbe name of
Peter Slesser and hsd It discounted. When
Mr. Shenk ssw the nete allerwarda he at
onee proneunoed it a forgery.
Abent two weeks age Brlcker was In
Lancaster, and while here met William
Naumau, high oenstsble of Kllsabethtewn.
They, had soma business teeetber, and
Brlcker gave Nauman a $75 note for
$10 In money. This note was for 00 days,
and was dated Mlddlotewn, September 8lb,
and has Mary Slesser's name as a witness.
It was payable te .Samuel Slesser. and was
signed with the names of Samuel Caley
and Jaoeb K. tibenk. When Nauman took
the note te a bank at Ellaibethtewn it was
at once pronounced a forgery. This note
was en the Farmers bank of Mlddletewn.
Tbe hand writing en tbese two notes, In
cluding the signatures, is all alike, and is
the ssme as that en tbe notes and checks
described In the iNTELLiaKNOun of Satur
day. During harvest and haymaking Brlcker
worked ter Cenrad Alwlne, a farmer re
siding in Londonderry township, Dauphin
oeunty. After leaving his employ be forged
tbe name of the farmer te a nete el $90, He
took It te tbe Ellcabetbtewn National bank
and succeeded In having It discounted. Ne
oemplslnt was ever made against him In
this case, although there may be new, alnee
he baa been eaptnred and se much can be
proved against him.
On Friday evening a man entered the
Olty hotel, and, walking up te tbe counter
began talking te Jehn Rldeneur, one et the
proprietors. He produced a choek which
he said was for $75 and bore the name of
James Steckmsn, the welt known horse
dealer et this cltyf" He1 sard he needed
mnney badly and would take $30 for it Mr
Kidene'ir did net leek at tbe eheck, as he
was very busy at the time, and paid little
attention te tbe man. He told him at laat
tbat he was net doing a banking bnslness
and tbe fellow walked out. When Mr.
RIdoneur read an account of tbe fellow's
transactions In tbe Intkllioenekr Satur
day evening, he concluded that tbe man
under arrest was tbe same who tried te
"de" him with the check. He went at onee
te the station house and there identified
Brlcker. Tbe eheck was net found en the
accusel when arrested, and if he had it the
name of Mr. Stockman was a fergery.
Brlcker Is e young fellow, being but 22
years of age. He lived in Conewsge town,
ship, about six miles from Mlddlotewn,
and five miles Ellzabethtewn, He Is well
acquainted in both of these places. He
was a day laborer when in that neighbor,
heed. He was married two years age, but
seen deserted his wife and one child, who
are new living in Kllzabetbtewn. Heme
time age he went te beard with Adam
Slesaer. It was net long until he and Mrs.
Sleaier beeame quite intimate and in the
early part of this month they eloped to
gether. Since tbat tlmethey have net been
in tbe neighborhood and it la believed tbst
Brlcker has Mr a, Slesser In Philadelphia
or some ether place. Up te the time tbat
Brleker get in with tbls woman he had
net been koewn te be guilty of much
crookedness. Soen afterwarda he began get.
tine up ferged paper,hewever, and has kept
it up.
People who knew blm think that he had
Intended trylngte negotiate all tbe notes,
checks, tfca, found en him when arrested.
His parameur.ls a rather geed looking and
attractive woman and is said te be ratber
Intelligent. It Is believed by many that he
committed the forgeries in order te keep
her in geed style and tbat she has assisted
him te some extent. Brleker Is
net well educated, and although he
has succeeded In getting the money en some
of tbe paper, he proceoded In a very
bungling manner, anu his aotlens would be
apt te create suspicion In tbe minds of meat
people. The men whose names have been
used by Brlcker en bis paper are all
responsible, and their genuine signatures
would be worth something. It seems that
he aisnmed the name Slesser In all of his
transactions In order te threw people off his
tracks.
When Brleker was arrested here en Fri
day evening he said he had come directly
fro. u Philadelphia te attend the fair. This
was net the truth, aa he was known te be In
Yerk county In tbe early part or tbe week
and kept Jumping from eneplace te another
te avoid officers from this and Danpbln
counties, who were en bis tracks. He
finally came te Lancaster, as is supposed,
In hopes tbat he would be sole te make a
take here belore leaving ter etber parts.
Sunday morning Constable Shenk bunted
up Barnheld and asked him te deliver
Brlcker ever te blm. Barnheld refused te
de this, but said that be would bold Brlcker
here until he ascertained what was against
blm at Kllzi'b&tbtewn, as be did net wish te
give him up te be taken te Danpbln oeunty
when be had been guilty et crime In Lan.
eaater oeunty. Constable Wlltlck went up
te Kllzabetbtewn en Sanday te ascertain
snmethlDK concerning Brlcker. He found
William Nauman, one of tbe men who had
purchased a worthless nete of Brlcker, and
he came along down te Columbia. He went
before Squire Evans and there made com.
plaint against Brlcker, charging blm with
forgery. Alter tbls bad been done Wlttlck
bad Brlcker committed for ahearlngandhe
and Barnheld relused te give him ever te
the Daupbin county people, Sbenk re
mained in Lancaster all day Sunday and
until tbls morning, but oeuld net get the
prisoner.
Brlcker Is se Ignorant that he cannot keep
his head shot, and tbls morning be gave
himself dead away by telling officers that
hehas been living at Ne. 6152 Lancaster
avenue, Philadelphia, with Mrs. Sleaser,
and the two passed as man and wife. In

pulsive looking bootblack, who has lived
In Lanoaster for several years, and has
spent considerable et' that "time In tbe
oeunty Jail. Although he has served one
or mere terms for larceny, most of his trou
ble Is the result of getting drunk, He
does net become intoxicated se often,
but when under tbe infiuenee of liquor
be Is a desperate character. He Is
by no means a large man, but he Is a
fighter when craay with rnm, as any polloo pelloo polleo
man will testify who has had occasion te
handle him. Lees than two years ego he
was arrested, and, while In the station
house, smashed everything te pieces In bis

He has been condnetlng himself pretty
well this summer, and he and his brother
have been living together. On Saturday
evening about 8 o'clock Resa walked np
North Queen street very drunk,and near the
Franklin house met his brother and a
young fellow nsmed Ssndee, who appar
ently were sober. Ress was making a great
noise and tbe ethers undertook te tske
blm home or at least get him off the streets.
He refused te go with them and acted Ilka
a wild man. In front of tbe stere of Mrs.
Edward Franke there waa a table filled
with glial ware and lute this Ress dashed,
breaking many of tbe pleeee. His friends
get held of him again, and, as they passed
down tbe street, Officer Selgler, who had
been attracted by the great orewd,
came up. He had Intended taking
Dester then, but his friends ssld
they could manege him gad would take
him home. They turned down Orange
street, but Ress grew worse, msking mere
nelea The cttleer then went sfter him and
he was seen Jglned by Offlesr Weaver and
Sergeant Hartley. Deater resisted strongly,
kicking, striking and biting at tbe e Ulcers,
Tbe crowd grew very great and interfered
materially with the policemen. After a
great deal of trouble Deaisr was carried tbe
whole way te the station house, where he
was placed for a two days rest On tbe way
he kicked both Weaver and Slegleras well
ss his brother, who at last turned In and
helped tbe officers Tbe officers treated
tbe prisoner very gently for tbe manner in
which he acted, and he was net hurt In
