Jesse Jones, an eleven-year-old colored boy who enjoys an unneviable repntation, and an Italion boy named Gus Arugo, were charged in the Police Court to-day with stealing seven po- tato sacks from the store of Myers and Loving. They were arrested by Policeman Hamilton. Gus answered when his name was called, but Jesse tailed to appear. “Where's the other boy?” asked the judge. “He's not here,” responded the officer. “Your honor threatened to send him to the Reform school the next time he came here.” “Has that boy been at his old tricks again?” the jndge inquired, “He's the worst boy in this city,” the judge added, ‘und as long as he is at large, we will be bothered with youthful candidates for the Reform school. Jesse is the best young thief who has ever been here. He has a smooth tengue and is so mild mannered that he can make a good impression.” Vhen the judge questioned Arugo he denied the theft, and said that Jesse gave him the tato sacks, Asked if he had ever been there fore, the witness replied that he had, “What for?” asked the judge. “I sold a man a paper and he wouldn't give me the five cents,” the boy replied. “I made in ro! in, 2 rol sent to the Heform school, os ‘i —___ Must Not Play Ballin the Street.

He was arrested, and when his stand was searched a great deal of the counter- feit money was found ina bag.

Mr. Springman, of the marshal’s office, was detailed to make the arrest, After searching for a clue he finally thought that Parker might have ap- plied for appointment on the police force, and finding that his surmise was correct, he soon obtained from his papers information as to his whereabouts, Last night Parker was found in the western part of the city. He is a good- looking young man about twenty-two years of age and nearly if not quite six feet in height. He was locked up at the first precinct station and this morning taken before U. 8.

INVESTIGATION MADE BY THE GRAND JURY OF HIS ACCOUNTS—INTERESTING HISTORY OF MICHAEL BOLAND’S CAREER—BURKE’S8 TRIAL IN WINNIPEG, AND HIS PROBABLE EXTRADITION. Cnicaco, June 21.—Another loss of $18,000 sustained by Alexander Sullivan through his speculations was discovered by the grand jury yesterday, It was also ascertained that Martin Burke secreted himeelf at Joliet from May 9 to May 18, and that while he was there he received asum of money from Chicago, whereupon he at once disappeared without telling his most intimate friends where he was going. These facts about Sullivan and Burke were the most valuable and startling, as they were about the only new ones resulting from the in- vestigation yesterday. Alexander Sullivan speculated at one time through the firm of Maurice Rosenfeld & Co, Some of his plunges were known to have been remarkably lucky, and he made money in large sums. _ His losses were smaller than his gains, put there were more of them, The aggregate of his. winnings and that of his losses were carefully calculated, overed that, although he made y strikes, he ‘really lost $18,000 while operating through this firm, LE CARON DISMISSED FROM THE G. A. R. Le Caron, the British military spy, was last night tried by his comrades in Winfield Han- cock post, No. 560, G.A.R., and summarily dismissed from the order. ‘The charges against him were that he was unworthy of being a comrade of the other members, and the trial was brought about by his testimony given in the Parnell case. Added to this is a story of peculiar interest as to his identification by the members of the post, and which points to the fact that Le Caron not only spent his time in America in acting as a spy against the Irish revolutionists, but also jomed the United States army and the G, A, R., for the purpose of giv- ing ‘ormation to the British government. An investigation of LeCaron’s papers, on which he got into the post, was made, It was found that he was a private in the Sixteenth Pennsyl- vania infantry during the war, and rose to the rank of lieutenant in a colored infantry regi- ment. His histury in Braidwood, Ill, where he kept a drug store, was looked into. It was found that he simply acted as a spy on the ac- j tions of the miners in that section who were members of the L R. B. CRONIN AND COUGHLIN AND MISS MURPHY. In the possession of the state’s attorney, among the private papers of Dr. Cronin, is a poem which was mailed to the doctor's office in the Chicago opera-house block a few days after the murder. Chief Hubbard, who seized all the papers in the doctor's office and later | turned them over to the state's attorney, says | that the poem is a very clever effusior gistic in its burden of Dr. Cronin. He is also authority for the statement that the authoress ot the poem is Miss Annie Murphy. who claimed to have seen Dr. Cronin on a street car o'clock on the night of May 4. It is stated that Coughlin was introduced to friends of the Murphy's as their “cousin.” Coughlin was around Murphy's house a great deal after his immediate arrival in Chicago and was quite attentive to Miss Annie. Dr. Cronin was also regular in his attentions to the members of the Murphy fami! MOTIVE FOR CRON The Tritune, this morning, says: In the search for a motive for Dr. Cronin’s removal the only intelligible one found is furnished by the history of his persistent efforts to show the misappropriation of Clan-na-Gael funds. The men whose standing in the Irish cause, and whose honor were involved by these efforts, were Alexi.nder Sullivan, Michael Boland and Dennis C. Feeley, the triangle during the early years of the present decade. At least $350,000 say Cronin’s adherents, passed through ' the hands of the three men while they were in 61 premac; The une then devotes three columns to an investigation of Michael Boland’s record during the past ten or twelve years. It traces him trom a position as coal weigher in Louis- ville to Kansas City, Mo., where he now is po- lice magistrate. From interviews with a num- ber of commission firms in Kansas City, the Tribune concludes that Mr. Boland has specu- lated heavily, although he was not such a plunger as Sullivan. BOLAND ADMITS HAVING SPECULATED. In an interview with their representative the Tribune says Mr. Boiand admitted the specula- tion, and conveyed the impression that he would be well off if he had not speculated, and yethe had some property left.
