Conlogue, 26, known in po- les throughout the United States as an alleged theatrical and undertaker check swindler, was brought here last night from Dallas, endered to the to be held for q tioning concerning an alleged fraud in connection with the handling of an alleged stolen United States Treasury bond. This morning he was questioned at police headquarters by Inspector Grant as to his alleged misconduct in this city last Summer. He denied having figured in several transac- tions charged to him, but did admit a simllarity in handwriting in a note used in an attempted swindle. Inspector Grant said he doubted I the prisoner would be tried in this city. He is wanted in Los Angeles, Calif,, the inspector stated, and prob- ably will be surrendered to the au- thorities there. McConlogue is said to have admit- ted to Inspector Grant that he had served two terms in prison, one in Atlanta and the other In a State prison in California. A descriptive circular of the Hotel Association of New York, asking for his arrest gave one of his aliases as George Hackathorn movie actor, whom he Is said to resemble, Other aliases Include the names of George Drown, Albert J. Kane, George de Bussey, Jack Grant, and George D. Denr A Checks the prisoner is alleged to have used were drawn on the Albany Park National Bank of Chicago, such a check having been used in Wash- Ington last Summer when he imper- | sonated Charles W. Vollmer, son of | Mrs. Alice Vollmer, who died shortly | before the swindle was perpetrated. | Mrs. Vollmer was buried by Under- | taker Martin W. Hysong, and « few days after the burial a telephone re- quest for the bill was received by the undertaker, the swindler posing as the son of the deceased, asking the amount of the bill and saying he would send a check for it. Shortly after the conversation was concluded Mra Hysong reccived the check and gave the messenger $105, the differ- | ence between the amount of the bhil | and the sum named on the face of the check. Undertakers in all sections of the country have been simtlarly swindled, it is stated, and hotel and theatrical men were not overlooked. In this city |Llsl Summer, it is charged, the young man impersonated De Wolf Hopper, who was playing at Poli's. He called | a member of the office force at the theater, represented himself to be the @ said he would send a check hed. The check was not | ashed. He also s alleged to have at- tempted to perpetrate a similar swin- dle at Keith's. | McConlogue Is sald to have admitted | to Inspector Grant that he was in this city last Summer while a fugitive | from justice, having escaped from | Federal officers in Kansas City, Mo., while on his way here, April from San Antonio, Tex. He w: recaptured in Dallas recently and arrived here | last night from that city. Police| throughout the country will be ad-| vised of his capture and asked to file detainers for him.
