END OF A GREAT CASE Scotland Yard Sees the Last of “the Great Bond Robbery.” ARRANGING "0 STOP THE OIL WELLS, Fitchburg. WHEAT MARKET EXCITED. THE GREAT BOND ROBBERY. End of One of the Most Famous Cases in Scotdland Yard's Records. Loxpox, April 11.—The case known as “The Great Bond Robbery,” which has been before the courts for ayear and which bas excited much interest in stock brokerage and other business circles, was brought to an end today by the conviction of the defendants, Walter Selwyn, astock broker, and Frederick Pench, on the charge of conspiring to defraud John Willis Scears out of a sum of £890. Selwyn was sentenced to five years’ penal servitude and Peach to fourteen months’ im- prisonment at hard labor. HISTORY OF A CELEBRATED CASE. The facts are that a parcel of Turkish priority bonds and a small sum of Mexican bonds were issued in Paris for £8,400 with the Marine Insurance Company and dispatched to a firm of brokers in London. They duly left by train January 11, 189, and were placed on board the Soutlieastern company's steamer on their arrival at Boulogne by the officials of the railway company. On the arrival of the boat at the English shore the majority of the bonds which bad been taken on board were found roperly locked up in the safe, but two parcels, hose insured for £4,500, were neither there nor in any other part of the vessel. Similar robberies occurred in the month of March last year. Chief Inspector Abbeline of Scotland Yard was fent over to Boulogne to see if be could recognize among the passengers arriving there any person known to him as a reputed bond robber. On April 8 he caused to be arrested by the French police four men whom he saw leaving the steamer Breeze. One of them, a man named Powell, was found to be vigorously masticating something. A French police officer seized him by the jaws, and, forcing them open, took out of his mouth a mass uf somewhat pulpy paper, which turned out to be a cloak room ticket of an article left at the Vie- toria station. In Powell's hand another ticket was found which related to a valise left at Dover. This valise contained sham bonds, which it was supposed,it was intended to replace by any genuine ones which might be stolen ‘on the voyage. Upon one of the other men were found two keys, one of which was a mas- ter key for the locks of all the safes of the Southeastern company’s fleet. Another of the men had in his possession a partly crushed wax impression of one of the of the Breeze Impressions of two other keys were found on the fourth man. Efforts made to bring abonght the extradi- tion of these men were unsuccessful, but after five months’ detention they were driven out of France. The Victoria station ticket had in the meantime been found to refer to a hat box con: taining sixty-two of the coupons belonging to partofone of the stolen parcels of bond while a search of the cloak room Cannon street station, London, resulted in the finding of a Gladstone bag in which were several of the bonds, Last July Mr. Scears, a gentleman of in- dependent means, received letter from Peach, to whom he had lent £100, in which he asked him to advance toa friend of his—a Mr. Mel- Fille—the sum of £1,000 upon = quantity of ‘Turkish priority 5 per cent bonds. Mr. Scears did advance the sum of £89), and placed a prscel,of bonds which he received in return rom Peach with his bankers. Meanwhile these bonds were stopped, and on August 26 Peach wrote aletter to Mr. Scears saying the loan wouid be repaid in the follow- ing January, and, he added, he had arranged with Mr. Melville that the coupons due in Sep= tember should not be disturbed. Other ae made by Inspector Abbeline brought to light the fact that the real name of Melville was Selwyn, and that he and Peach had been living together at Eastbourne and that they had residences near one another at Richmond. When Peach was first before the magistrate his counsel applied for bail, and to demonstrate the bona fides of his cli- ent in the matter undertook to restore the re- mainder of the bonds. This was agreed to, and Peach's wife took a detective into an attic id disclosed a hole in the flooring, in which were all but three of the bonds he was in search of, together with a quantity of cor- respondence between Peach and Melville. leanwhile Melville, whose real name proved to be Selwyn, evaded arrest for some time and wrote impudent letters to the authorities, jeer- ing them about the criminal proceedings. He was at length arrested in a house in Harewood square, where he had been stopping under the name of F. Dalbein,esq. The prisoner was re- luctant to give his name, which proved to be Walter Selwyn. He also proved to be a criminal who had undergone sentences of imprisonment and penal servitude for forgery, swindling, &c., and who was probably not not unknown to America, as there was papers in his posses- sion when he was arrested relating to California. Selwyn used to dis- guise himself for criminal —_opera- tions by blacking his mustache, which is naturally light. The whole amount of bonds stolen by the gang, of which Peach and Selwyn appear to have been leaders, was about £20,000. a herge quantity of the stolen bonds were re- covered in Vienna. The actual robberies a] pear to have been impossible to trace to the risoners, an they were therefore prosecuted for conspiracy to defraud. ——_ HE WAS A HERO. Disastrous Fire On an Old Colony Line Steamer—A Brave Fireman. New Bepronp, Mass., April 11.—The steamer City of Fitchburg of the Oid Colony Steamship Company, which arrived from New York yesterday morning with a miscel- laneous cargo of freight, was seriously damaged at her dock this morning. When the hatches were opened the deck han. encountered a mass of flames and smoke. The entire forward hold, loaded with cotton and rain, was in flames, which spread aft, around th sides of the engine room and into tho . after bold, where the _mis- cellaneous merchandise was loaded. Work- ing its way to the upper deck it gutted the forward saloon and o! * rooms. The offi- cers lost nearly all their personal effects. The crew's quarters on the after part of this deck were also damaged and the men lost much of their property. Two streams were poured in from the wharf hydrants and nine streams from the fire engines. PROVED HIMSELF 4 HERO.

Producers Sign an Acreement to Cease Work for Six Months. Prrrsprrc, April 11.—A number of the lend- ing oil producers in the southwest are taking action looking toa general suspension of the drilling operations for a period of six months from about May 1. Many of the largest oper- ating individual firmsand companies, with head- quarters in this city, have already signed the agreement, which is so drawn that it must be signed by all producing companies or it is tobe null and void. The iden mects with general favor among the operators, who bind themselves to build no rigs nor start any wells to drilling be- fore the 15th of October, except under specified circumstances. Of course, thefidea is to curtail production and in the natural course of things to raise prices. Copies of the agreement are being sent to all parts of the oil country, jbut natarally ail Provisions, if carried’ into effect,” will apply more particularly to that partof the producing territory in the southwest—south of the town of Butler. The m ment started outside of the Producers’ Protective Associa- tion and is entirely independent of it. It eaid by the projectors of the scheme that the StandardSproducing companies have signified a periect willingness to sign the agree- ment and assist in the movement provided a sufficient number of the independent producers to make it successful shall go into to it in good faith. So far as known there have been no re- fusals to sign the papers which are being indus- triously circulate se ee DEMANDING THEIR DISCHARGE. ‘The Pension Investigating Committee After Employes Who Decline to Answer. B. W. Flenniken, private secretary to the Inte Senator Plumb of Kansas, testified before the pension office investigating committee today that he had never received compensation, di- rectly or indirectly, for any information reint- ing to the status of pension claims. Samuel R. Hersey bad said he believed Mr. Flenniken sometimes sold the information he secured by means of congressional slipa. EXAMINER WAYSON ON THE STAND. Geo. W. Wayson, formerly assistant chief of the special examining division of the pension bureau and now a special examiner in the field, who, it is charged, used his influence | while assistant chief to secure desirable assignments in the field to such examiners and clerks as lent him money or indorsed his notes, was examined. He said that he never had authority to assign men to duty in the field and bad never obtained or solicited any money for anything he had done in the office. But when asked questions as to whether or not he had borrowed money or secured indorsements from a number of his subordinates, whose names were given, he de- clined in each case to ‘answer th questions, declaring that the matter was pri- vate, and in no way affected his official acts. Mr. Enloe asked if witness had not taken the deposition of an examiner named Wilson, show- Jing that the latter had borrowed ‘money trom a money lender named Latourette on a pension certificate contrary to law. He an- swered that question affirmatively, but denied absolutely that after taking’ the depo- sition le kept it on his desk for si months and until it was taken from him, order to prevent Latourette’s prosecution. He said that he turned the affidavit over to the chief of the division. Witness still refusing to answer the ques- tions bearing on financial transactions thecom- mittee decided to report to the House a resolu- tion requesting the commissioner of pensions to discharge him from the pension office. SENT MONEY TO WATSON. Harvey G. Ellis testified that at one time he loaned Wayson $20, but he respectfully de- clined to state whether he had indorsed any notes for Wayson on the ground that it was his private business. He also declined to say whether he had been called in from the field to renew a note for Mr. Wayson. The witness, however, voluntecred the statement that no transaction he ever had with Wayson had ever benefited him (witaess), nor bad any such trans- action cost him a cent. ‘The witness still persisting in refusing to answer the questions bearing en financial uestions the committee decided to report to tho House a resolution requesting the com- missioner of pensions to discharge him from office, as was done in the case of the previous witness. EX-DETECTIVE M'ELFRESH. George W. McElfresh,a messenger in the pension office, testiied that he had been told to watch a colored “broker” and had assisted in furnishing the evidence upon which be was indicted. He had borrowed money from Mr. Latourette and was now in debt to him. Wit- ness testified that he was formerly a detective on the Washington police force, but had been legislated out of office. In’ response to further questions by Mr. Enloe the witness said that Confidential Clerk Linen- weaver had told him to iet him (Lineaweaver) know if he saw anything of interest to Gen. Raum in the investigation held by the com- mittee in the last Congress. The witness told Mr. Lineaweaver subsequently that he saw a number of pension office clerks congregating in Willard’s Hotel with Mr. Fleming, the news- paper correspondent.
