SEEKS TO BE AN ALL AROUND SPOUT
Curtis Was Arrested While Leaving
the Wyoming He Tried to Sell the
Bicycle to Dunn, the Hatter A Set
of Burnlar Tools Found In Prison
er's Room in Wyoming His Plan
of Operation.
The police yesterday made an im
portant o.ipture when they uatherod in,
on a charge of violatinir the city or.li
n injti', a man giving his name as (J L.
Curli, und his business, sign painting.
Curtin, by his own admissions and sub-
stiuitulini! telegrams from various
places, turns out to bo what in police
circles is known as a "rouuder,"which,
didiiied iu common parlance, means a
yiiiirp lttuu who lives on the dullness of
others. He is evidently uo common
ipt'ciuien of this typ either, lie is a
graduate of Harvard and did rept-r-torlai
work for liradstreet, "betore
Wiman began to pull Duo down,'' as
be expressed it himself. Among his
accomplishments be numbers that of a
wide acquaiulanoe iu the circles in
which Joe Hunzuder, "Djnvor"
Uarui's, V. K. Post, E I O'Brien and
other well known confidence men. lie
tallis about the various bunco and con
tideuos games with the s;un fluency
with which he quotes poetry und
sketches even as well as he plays curd
tricks. Chief Simpson, who has l)Hd
considerable dealings with men of this
stripe, confesses that Air. Curtis is
about the "slickest" individual that he
bus as yet com across.
TItllJD TO SKLL H! CYCLE.
Curtis wis urKsied as be was com
iug troui nis hotel, the Wyoming, on
suspicion of having Btoleu a bicycle,
the charge, hovvev.r, being that of try
ing to dispose of a bicycle without li
tviitej to deal in nurcouiidise as pro
vided by city ordiuauco.
During the morning he entered
Dunn's store and after purchasing a
necktie tried to in ikd a sale of a ticy
cU li t siid had a whoel fjr which
he had paid $1-5 and v.-bic':i he was
williug to dispose of for sJoO. Mr. Dunn
suspected that SLiu-thin was wrong
and after making au a; pjiutm..ut to
try tiie wheel later ou, communicated
the facts to 0111 :cr Roche, who ij at
prtsetit cn tiiu lookout for the bicycle
ihieves. After making some inquiries
i'. was decided to hold Curtis and he
was accordingly arrested. A telegram
v.ms sent to the Ovevuuu Wheel com
pany, the mauulacturers of the wheel
m question, aud from them it was
learned that tho wheel had baeu eold to
a patty in UiIch, X. Y. A telegram to
Uiica elicited the fact that the wheel
had been stolen from F. L. Jones of
that town a few days previous.
1 Ina information was followed up
:nd it was leurned that Curtis arrived
in Binghamton with tw wheols in his
poesessina ut 0 o ciock Thursday even
ing. O.ie wheel was disposed of iu
ijinghamtou and the ' other is uti-
ilouufdly the one v.hi;:h occupies un
adjoiniu cell to Curtis in tne base
meut of the municipal building.
CUItTlS MAKES CONFESSION.
List night wheti the chief and Offl-
cer Koaci) confronted Curtis with the
evidence tbev had secured he broke
down and confessed even more than the
officers thought he knew, Uo admitted
itial he had been en 'aged. in burglary,
ouiiC" steering nml coiih.lonc-) iimes
aud wueu tne ctuef, to draw him out,
hinted that, ho was oulv bragging Cur
tissent Ofli.'er R)che after proof, which
8nid lit) v. uui pud in a leather
case in rouin 103, Wyoming House. It
turned out to ie a tine a -t of burglar's
tools. Curtis iinnly b-licVcd thut he
coulil r.ot he held in this state, aud to
show I. is utter contempt for the law
tulked openly of his doings and gave
tho f ihvers some pointers on the latest
conudonce games.
The "bicycle racket," as he c-ilis it, is
botu new and rare. It is being worked
I y n large gang scattered ail over the
country, lhey optrats in pairs some
thing after this fashion: Oue of them
steals a bicycle and when a reward is
r tiered, us is the case nine tim' ont ot
ten, the other fellow after a few days
represents himself ns a detoctive
from such acd such a place
and retnrns the) wheel with some ex
piunntionns to how ha recovered it. He
s cures the reward and by this tim his
pal his more detective work for him to
i:o. It is not often that tain r-o! t to
the bold method in which Curtis came
to pvief. That is left for ordinary
thieves which may well be believed is
not the strips of Curtis.
The chief of police of Binglinmton
was expected on an early morning
train. Ho will probably take Curtis
back to New Yorlt state,
