Be Escapes, bat Ilia Confederate in Crime is Arrested. A KOTED SPORTSMAN'S HARD LUCK New Yoke, May 14. Leslie E. Macleod is in the Tombs, and the police are bunting for Eobert L. "Wallace. They are charged with the robbery of over 550,000 from John H. Wallace, the veteran editor and propne torof "Wallace's Monthly," which isknown the country over as an authority en matters relating to trotting horses, and also of the standard works "Wallace's American Trqt ting Eegister"and "Wallace's Year Book." Kobert L. Wallace is a relative of Editor Wallace, and Macleod was associate editor or Wallace's Monthly. John H. Wallace is a bachelor with ruddy, clean shaven face, twinkling blue eyes and hair silvered by his GO goodly years. He has been interested in the breed ing of fine horses for 40 years. He began the publication of "Wallace's American Stud Book" in the West in 1S61. The wort be came standard of its kind, and in 1867 Mr. Wallace added a trotting breeders' supple ment, which in 1871 he developed into the well-known "Trottinc Register." His monthly is the official organ of the Kational Association of Trotting Horse Breeders, and has been published in this city since 1875. The offices are now in the Stewart building. ADOPTED HIS riTTSBUKG RELATIVE. He has made over 5100,000 out of his publications, and being a hearty, whole souled kind of man, without chick or child of his own, he took as a protege several years ago the son of a Pittsburg Wallace, who is in the Government employ there. The lad's grandfather was a cousin of Mr. Wallace's lather. Robert L., this was the lad's name, was to be heir to the thonsands that "Uncle" Wallace had laid away Un cle Wallace became very fond of him and trusted him implicitly Robert, or "Bob," ss his benefactor affectionately called him. will not be 21 years old until next July, but he was made assistant treasurer of the pub lishing establishment, carried the key to Mr. Wallace's safe and had access to his check-book and all his private papers. Last Wednesday morning "Bob" did not appear at the office. He did not appear during the dav. As he was ordinarily punctual enough Mr. Wallace thought he must be sick, and that afternoon went up to "Bob's" boarding house, No. 487 West Twenty-second street, to see about it. "Why, Robert left in a hurry this morn ing, taking his trunk," said Mrs. Charles Gumbart, the landlady. "He said he was going to Boston on business." As Mr. Wallace knew of no business that the lad could have in Boston certainly none connected with the office he begau to think. He did a good deal more thinking after he had returned to the office and looked at his bankbook tbat evening, and still more on Thursday morning when he visited his box at the Bankers' Safe Deposit Company's Vaults at No. 4 Wall street. JTOTHIXG LETT BITT A DEFICIT. The box in the safety deposit vault, in which there had been over 535,000 of gilt edged stocks and bonds, was empty, and enougn cash had been drawn from Mr" Wal lace's account at the bank to make the total shortage nearly 554,000. Eobert L. Wallace, "nephew" and prospective heir, was the onlv person who had access to the back bqok and the private compartment in the saffevwhere the safety vault key was kept, and it was pretty evident that be had drawn in advance on his prospects as heir before he hurried off that Wednesday morning "on business to Boston." Mr. Wallace notified Inspector Byrnes of the robbery, and the latter decided to arrest Macleod on suspicion of complicity. Mac leod is very well known to breeders of trot ting horses all over the country. Althoueh only 27 years old, he is said to be a particu larly well informed horseman and a tren chant writer. He came to New York from Prince Edward Island, and has been in the Wallace office nearly four years. He was made associate editor'of "Wallace's Month ly" a year ago. Macleod is a peculiar look ing man, with a large, square bead, very small and somewhat fishv eyes, and a nar row chin. He wears spectacles, which in crease his singular appearance. He is un married. BOB "WAS IHFLUEirCED. Macleod and young "Bob" Wallace were much together, and the 'supposition is that the older man influenced the other. Mac- leod is said to drink freely. "Bob," how ever, was given a very good character bv Mr. and Mrs. Gumbart at the West Twenty second street boarding house. He had boarded there for a vear and a hair. They said he was not addicted to drink, so far as they know, though he sometimes kept late hours. Mrs. Gumbart described him as a tall, well built young man, with a very young mustache. The onlv theory to ac count for the theft of the 552,000 or more is that it went in gambling. The 535,000 worth of stocks and bonds stolen trom the Bankers" Safety Deposit vaults were the personal property of Mr. Wallace. Some of the cash drawn from hank was to tbe account of tbe publishing house. The deficit will not, however, affect the business seriously, if at all. Some time ago Mr Wallace organized the Wallace Trotting Register Company with a large number of shareholders, including many prominent breeders. Among tbem are Charles Backman, of Orange county, this State; A. J. Sctinlz, of Brooklyn, and E. S. Veech, of Kentucky. All three publications have been prosper ous. The Monthly has 11G pages, the Regis ter about COO and the Year Book from COO to 700. The pedigrees, race statistics, compar ative tables, speed classifications, etc., are considered official in Europe as well as in America. OFF TO HAVANA. Inspector Byrnes said this afternoon that .the party who stole the 550,000 worth of bonds fiom the Bankers' Safe Deposit Com pany was Leslie McLeod. It was first sup posed that young Wallace had stolen them. McLeod has been identified by Mr. Schley, an official of the Bankers' Safe Deposit Company. ' Mr. Schley said that McLeod went to the faults on Wednesday, and on Thursday morning the bonds were missing. It is known that young Wallace on Wednesday afternoon negotiated 510,000 worth of bonds. On the same day he took the .steamer Santiago for Havana. He gave the name of -fc U. Uollins. The steamerJ reached Havana Sunday. The total amount kbf property taken includes 535,000 Western Jnlon bonds, a cnecK lor ?iu,ooo in all 5,000. Kot Known Here. Young Eobert L. Wallace is not known n this cityamong sporting men. There are k number of Wallaces in the City Directory, and he may possibly be connected with one of these families. THE DEFENDANT TO PAY To tbe Tone of 82T1.S0S An Important De cision Rendered in New York. New Yoke, May 14. Judge Wallace, of the United States Circuit Court, in the suit of David Armstrong, the receiver of the fidelity National Bank of Cincinnati, O., against the Chemical National Bant, to-day entered a decree ordering the payment byJ tbe defendant to the complainant of) the sum bf527LB08. The suit was brought May 31, 1888, to recover the balance due on collater als given for an unpaid loan in excess of the amount loaned. A BIQ STETEE AVERTED. The Frlclc Coke Company's Miners Gladly Accrpt n Compramlic. ISPBCIAL TELXORUT TO III DISPATCH.! Scottdalk, May 14. There will be no general strike atFnck's Coke Works. This conclusion was reached this evening by a conference of "Watchorn, Eae and other la bor officials with General Manager Lyncb, of the Frick Coke Company. The miners asked for the conference and it was granted. The former withdrew their six days" notice of a striKe and Mr. Lynch agreed to inves tigate Valley works grievances. This will be done in the morning. The Friek Companv had fully determined apon a course should there have been a strike, and as the miners were aware of this fact, they decided that a compromise would be the wisest plan. The opportune inter ference of Bae and "Watchorn seems to have avertea a bitter strike. It is understood that while the Valley plant will not be put in resumption yet, the grievances relative' to the filling of the wagons will be fixed. There is consequent happiness in the miners' headquarters to-night, as nobody seemed to want 10 strike when the existing condition of the coke trade was considered. An effort will be made in the luture by both parties to live up to the agreement A meeting of McUlure's miners was held here to-day, and the filling of wagons was considered, but the course they intend to pursue was not disclosed.

The Prohibitionists met in county convention here yesterday and placed the following ticket in nomina tion: Congress, Hon. W. P. Batham; As sembly, Thomas C. McClintoci and James Wilson; Sheriff, W. A. Kelly; Prothono tary, J. C. Moore; Register and Recorder, Isaac Andrews; Treasurer, Washington Bovard; Clerk of Courts, J. L. Carpenter; County Commissioners, Eobert McBride and Jacob Hutchman; Auditors, I. N. Meals and Thomas B. White; Coroner, Dr. Barber; delegates to State Convention, Wil liam Black, Eev. Irabrie, Eev. Stiffey, Eev. Ppllard, Eev. 3IcClester, Rev. Breaden, Eev. John S. McKee, John C. Kerr, H. Sheffield. Resolutions were adopted denouncing the old parties for not meeting the prohibition question fairly; expressing the belief, in view of the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court in reference to the shipment of liquor in original packages into prohibition States, that prohibition to be radically eficctual must extend to the whole nation and be supported by a party uncon ditionally committed to its procurement and enforcement. STOPPING TEE DEUX. Bailer Oil Producers Want lo Stop Work on the Snbbath Dar. special telegeamto the dispatch.) Butlee, May 14. A dozen of the largest oil producers in the Hundred-foot field have entered into an agreement to shut down all wells, whether drilling or pumping, on Sun day, and are making a canvass of the field Lfor the purpose of getting others to join in the movement." Those who have already gone into the shut down will stop all work on their leases next Saturday night. The project is looked upon favorably by nearly all the operators, except those who have a larger production of salt water than oil. The latter class assert that a day's cessation ot pumping would permit an accumulation of salt water which would ruin their wells. The first really good well struck in a week came in to-day. It is the Griesbach & Co.'s No. 1, on the Casper Fehl farm, and it started off at 18 barrels an hour when the drill tapped the pay streak. CHEAPEST EASES EOE YEAES. Tbe Norlbweitern Railway! Underbidding Each Other lo IJCRdlne Centers Chicago, May 14. Passenger rates to Western points are now lower than they have been for years. Tbe Burlington to-day gave notice of a further reduction in the rate from Chicago to St Paul to 53, which is 52 lower than the present second-class fare. No sooner did the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul officials hear of this than they an nounced a 53 rate to Council Bluffs, Omaha and Kansas City, and a rate of 55 20 to Sioux Citj. These rates apply in both directions. They also make a first-class rate of 55 to St. Paul with 53 as second-class. The meeting called by General Passenger Agent Sebastian, of the Bock Island, was without results. DETROIT STRIKERS DISPLEASED. The Cmclnl. Too Busy Willi Oiber Mnilen to Give Tbem tlclp. Detroit, Mich., May 14. The striking carpenters here are not particularly well pleased over the fact that, although this is the third week of the strike, the union head quarters in Philadelphia have failed to send the promised 55 per weec for single men and 57 per week for married men on strike. No special hardship has resulted, however, as the local unions have relieved all wants. The Philadelphia office is said to have been too busy to attend to the matter. An effort is being made to-day to bring the bosses and strikers together to arbitrate the strike matter. The lormer are said to be ready to pay 25 cents per hour, while the strikers demand 30 cents. RATLKOAP COMBINE. The Lehigh Vnllo y Takes Under III Wings Two Minor Knllronils. Buffalo, May 14.

EYEITI MAN SB(ULD BE EXAMINED Bv the Official in Whose Employ He Seeks to Become a Servant. L0NQ 'SERVICE NOT ADVANTAGEOUS Chicago, May 14. "The Government of the United States is a political, not a busi ness machine," said Assistant Ironmaster General Clarkson, in reply to & question on civil service reform here, to-diy. "I know that there is a general belief that the reverse is true, but the belief is incorrect. To my mind, were it true, It would be one of the worst things that could happen to our Gov ernment. "The genius of our political progress lies in the active interest taken in our Govern ment by the people. That this interest should be kept alive and aroused to au even greater extent than at present is most essen tial. Essayists who enjoy formulating theories for an ideal Government admit that their cherished systems can come only through tbe political activity of the people. to get most work. "Now, to keep the people active, court must be made to their personal industrial interest. Let them consider that there is not only public, but personal 'advantage to be gained. Then they will work. And for working they will be rewarded." "Then you do not think this country would be better off with such a civil service as England possesses?" "Most assuredly I do not What, per petuate an officeholding class of which every individual member upon 'arriving at the age of 60 shall receive a pension? Never. What incentive would there be for snch a class to work; what aim in life would be theirs, save to hang on by every ezense pos sible1? Their ambition would want for nourishment and their value to the country decrease. "I believe that continued service in the Government employ is bad for any man and alter a certain period all tbe public ser vants shonld be sent back to the people to renew themselves. I believe that each office should have a fixed tenure to preserve the re spect of the occupant, and if the occupant desires a second term let him show by his work that he is entitled to it." examinations favored. "Would you abolish civil service exami nations?" "No. Every man should be examined. But he should be examined by the official in whose employ he is to be. Is such a principle not good in business? Is not an employer able to obtain the fitness of an applicant to perform the work tbat belongs to his department, and a man who not onlv has an interest, but knowledge of, what is required in the department in question?" "Do you think, Mr. Clarkson, that the business of our Government is carried on as satisfactorily as t,hat of England, where offi cial position is not affected by change of ad ministration?" "Yes, much better. The business of our Government is transacted more accurately and at a lower percentage of loss than any other public or any private business in ex istence. And why?" The speaker asked abruptly. "Because of the fact tbat there is relation in office; becanse it is patriotism more than money Reeking that actuates the men who take an interest in our political life." A Wonderful Phenomenon. Tho man who should pass through life with out a twinge ot indigestion, might be fitly re garded as a wonderful phenomenon. We doubt if snch a privileged mortal has ever ex isted. If so, we have never seen him. But thousands are known to be daily relieved by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the popular rem edy for that truly national complaint, as well as for fever and ague, debility, consumption, rheumatism and kidney troubtes.
