a4 VAN VELSOR. Particulars of the Arrest of George Van Vel- sor, the Young Railroad Clerk. A Thrilling Confession of the Crime. ———— Adventures of Van Velsor and Baxter Before and After the Robbery —_——- The Tricks of a Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff. George Van Velsor, who, in May last, was acierk 4n the office of C. C. Clark, treasurer of the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad Company, and who, on Sunday, the 3d day of the month, robbed the office safe of $33,000, and with an accomplice, named Isaac Baxter, escaped, reached the Grand Wentral depot yesterday morning. He was in charge ef Detective Jobn Scanian, the company’s ofticer, and Detective Shelly, of the Central OMice. Van Velsor has made “a clean breast’? of the adfair, and bis story is full of the deepest interest. He has couleseed in substance as fo!lows:— THE CONFESSION. Isaac Baxter and myseif were very intimate. He resided at Sing Sing and I resided at Scar- borough. He always made tt bis business to get m my company,as o/ten as possible. Several times previous to the commission of the act he proposed | to me to rob the safe in the Treasurer's ofice, but T always resisted him, At his request on several occasions | visited houses of il! repute with him in New York city and got to drinking liquor, The Baturday aight previous to the robbery we came @ New York together and visited a bouse of pros- titntion in Greene street, We there all night and till Sunday when Baxter proposed we should wuik, and we did, going as tne Grand Central depot, baving bad several drinks In the meantime. When the Grand Central depot was reached Baxter com- plained of being tired, and suggested that we go up stairs in the Treasurer’s office and rest and bave asmoke, and I consented, Alter being in there about bali an hour Baxter asked me if I understood tne combinations of the large safe. I replied in the afirmative, and going to the safe opened it and saw there $33,000 in greenbacks and currency. I litted up several packages of the money and showed them to Baxter, He urged me to take all there was in the safe and Idid so, and we rolled it upin a newspaper. We stayed tp the office Ull nearly Six P, M., When we stausted out aud went dowa Lexington avenue BUYING SECOND HAND CLOTHING. Baxter carried t. e oundie containing the money, In \urning the corner of Forty-secoad street be accidentally dropped three $1,000 packages on the sidewaik, which | picked up aud putin my over- coat pocke’. From there we weut to Chatham street, and procuring More old newspapers, se- curely wrapped ‘hem aiound the money, having frst taken out enough to buy two sults Of second hand clothing irom a Jew in Chatham street snd to pay Other necessary expenses, We then went to Jersey City aud Percnancs. tickets jor Washing- tou Vie the Pennsylvania Central Railroad. This was Sunday night. We reacaed Washington on Monday morning, tending to go Soutu trom there, was :ound no train would leave till night. Then we Started to Walk IDto Maryland, und some time alter struck the line of the ‘Laltumore and Onio Rail- road, if Was raining hard and we resolved to secrete Some of tne money. We dug a hole im tue ground and buried $23,000 of greenbacks rolled up i Old Bewspapers. We also buried ourciothes which.we wore ou Sunday and put on we second hand suits purchased of the Jew, eacn having a biue shirt. For three days alter we kept traveling ob Jot, sleeping at might in the woods. GOING INTO CAxP. After having accomplished {ty mies in that Manner we got on bourd # train, woen Baxter Proposed that we should Doth sit with our Leaus ut ol the car Window a8 the Lrain moved along, 80 Chat our faces should get as black as possible from the soot and @ast from tue engine. He pro- pProsed this because he seid there would be tele- afvernoon, take a as far grams description cf us, aod it Was’ necessary to ve fully disenised, When the train reacnea Andiapapous We got out and seperated ior a shore time While Wailing ‘or a Lrain to start tor Quincy, iv. We passed cue another on the platiorm i Qt first could not recognize each other, our 1a veimy so dirty and blac Quincy train and jn due time brought ap at Kan- and from there we went into Southern Ss. We bought a ranch there for $000 aud leo purchased @ team Of horses, a pouy, harness aud camp eqdipage. We Went into camp mght away, ana, alier becoming domiciled, returned to the line of the Baluumore and Onio Ratiroad In Maryland and went to the spot wnere we had | burvea toe wu. We reached there on the 8th of July. SICK AND DIVIDING THE MONEY. After digging up the money we fouud that the Mildew and wet had destroyed about $2,009 of 11, and that amount we burned. We 1ook the bal- ance, $26,000, and started once more for our Faneh in Sonutnera Kansas. Upon reaching it we Weut to Work at Jarmipg, ald set Out 100 aeres of corb, aii ol which Was Gestruyed in the night by the grasshoppers, Shortly alter | was taken ili with a severe attack of rheumatism, brought on by exposure, and my sickuess Jasted nearly five montis.

In the Meantime he had teiegraphed to New York for further information, &c, He searched me and found $1,660, a gold waten and chair, a revolver, ap ordinary finger ring and a check for my trunk, and then put me in jail, Then he sent to depot ior my trunk, opened tt and took out seven Packages of greenvacks of $1,000 each.

Cer to say nothing about the watch, and if she did he+woula give her away on the diamond ring. Van Velsor finally advised her to teli the officers a!| and return the ring to Scanian, which she did. AT TUE GRAND CENTRAL DE! A large crowd at the Grand Central depot this morning, when the Atlantic express arrived, to catch a glimpse of Van Velsor, The detectives, however, slipped out of toe ears on the opposite side of them, ana with Van Velsor and the writer hurried to @ res- taurant, where breakfast was bad, alter which Van Velsor Was quietly taken to Superintendent ‘Toucey’s private office, He was laboriug under great emotion. and when he became seated and ‘Was leit alone to his reflections be burst into a flood of tears. The first toenter the room to see | the long lost boy (he is nineteen years of age only) Was the old and trusty porter, Who loved him as @ child; and it was a sorry sight. Yue Old man Wept tireeiy, and tured away too full tg Speak, muttering with sobs, “Bear | ap, my boy; vear up.” Mr. Toucey came next ant he spoke cheerfully, “Hallo, George!” the | latter agaim bursting into tears. Mr, Toucey re- marked, 4s be lett the room, “It’s a long lane that has uo turn.’ Theu, one after another, the old comrades of the boy’ about the building entered the office, all Wearin: sorrowful look. The sad- dest sight, however, was the meeting of Van Vel- sor with his mother and sister, and over that we draw a veil. It is true be had committed @ great } erune, but it was his first faise step, lor, up to the | nour he first became mtimately acquainted with | Isaac Baxter, he was honored, respected and trusted by all who knew oim. When tis mother and sister withdrew he was taken to the office of Mr. Loomis, the attorney of the road, in tne same buiiding, Where a private interview was had, and then Detective Shelly took @carriage and drove | with his prisoner to the Office of Superintendant Walling to make his report. Van Velsor appeared to be very low-spirited and had but ttle to say. | In accordance With instructions from the Superin- teadeut the decectave then conveyed bis prisouer to the Disurict Attorney’s office, and he was com- mitted to the Tombs without baii, an indictment for grand larceny having been previously found against Lim. Sheruy Willoughby, of Denver, holds about $11,000 worth of property which the prisoner had | and whieh belongs to the company, This will be wrested Jrom bit by due process of law. As yet there 18 no positive clew to the whereabouts of Isaac baxter. | THE MITCHEL DEMONS 2 THE PROCESSION AND FUNERAL ORATION ABAN- DONED FOR THE PRESENT. A representative of the HBRALD called yester- day moruing at the Northern Motel, foot of Cort- landt street, upon Mr. O'Donovan Rossa and over geutiemen who have @ deep interest in the in- tended demonstration in honor of the memory of John Mitchel, whose remains were laid to rest last Monday under the green sward of bis native land. In answer to the inquiries of the writer as wo what the Irish societies would do in face of the | action of the Police Commissioners in regard to the procession, it Was said that tue de- termination haa been arrived at to abandon the parade and funeral oration for the present. The committee spoke in handsome terms of the Police Commissioners, stating that they had no doubt whatever that if the Commissioners could have seen their way out of the diMculty they would have gladly accorded the desired permis- sion, But there were the imperative provisions of the law forbidding public processions in the streets on Sundays, and it was utterly impossible to get over them. In coming to the conciusion to give up the procession jor the present, and to yleid implicitly to the law and to the orders of the Police Commissioners, the Irish societies do themselves honor, and show that they are composed of law-abiding citizens of a country where they have foand proteciion, homes, hverty and bread, They, too, in acting thus, pay honor to the memory of Jobn Mitchel; for it would, indeed, be a sad spectacie to witness any effort to conier respect on bis name if it were accompanied by a collision with the police. The good sense, how- ever, Oi the managers of the intended demonstra- | tion bas put all chance of any such conflict out of the qnestion. Though the intended display will not take p.ace to-day, it is to come off on a day in the near iuture, The Irish societies are at work upon a plau Wiueh, While it will not in the least degree bring them into COLLISION WITH 'THE CONSTITUTED AUTHORITIES, Wili be very effective in paying to the memory of | the dead patriot that respect to which It 1s en- trtied. There is at present vefore the Legisiature a bill to moduly the Clauses Of the act re‘erring to public processions in tue streets of our city on Sundays, and if the bill should become law Within whe HeAtseven Or eight days tue Irisa societies | expect (hat under Lis provisions they Will be apie to hold the Mitchel procession on a Sunuay. But, | whether Us bill becomes law or not, the iricads of tie movement are resolved upon having a | deinonsiration in M18 honor upou a day to be bereaiter named, When the police cannot inte flere and When there can be no possible chance of breaking tae law.

The Mayor's Determination to Give the City’s Creditors Fair Play, Comptroller Green is again on the rampage. He seems never to be 80 happy as when he js doing some foolish act, which can have for its object nothing better than the bringing about of a dead- lock between the various departments, aud, con- sequently, a dead loss in some way to somebody other than himself, 1t wili be remembered that when Mr, Havemeyer was Mayor Mr. Green did pretty much as he pleased, the good natured old gentleman being mere putty in the hands of the wily Comptroller. One of bis fancies in Mr. Have- meyer’s days was to send all the warrants that were made out tn favor of parties to whom this city owed money over to the Mayor for nim to sign, before they were even registered, dated or numbered, By this means, when they were re- turned to the Finance Department, he was ena- bled to 5 HOLD BACK ANY WARRANT he saw fit for any length of time he deemed suf- client to make a@ poor devil who had a lew dollars coming to him feel that Andrew H. Green was & man to be bowed and scraped to, Tois was the real secret of the difficulty so many people had to encounter before they conid get money justly due them during Mr. Mavemeyer’s time. Belore & warrant is registerea, dated and numbered it is of no value; 2nd as no record of tne warrants signed by Mr. Havemeyer and sent back to the Comptroller in their incomplete form was kept at the Mayor’s office, Woen any one called upor the Mayor to know if he had signed a warrant in his favor he was unable to state whether he had or not with any degree of cer- tainty. When Mr. Wickham came into office his experience as @ business man indicated to him at once the necessity of INAUGURATING A REFORM in this warrant business. Considering his signa. ture as @ counter signature necessary, 0! course, to make a city warrant of value, yet 43 a signa. ture which really perfected the warrant, he nat- urally decided that belore a Warrant lelt his hands signed ail other neces signatures snould be formally affixed | to » Os well as the dates, numbers, &c. He therefore sent a letter to Comptroller Green on the 7th ot January, veiling hi’ that’ the warrants must be dated, registerod and numbered when sent to Lim, and in order that @ periect tally of the warrants he signed should be kept in ius (the Mayor’s) office, he ordered one of his clerks to keep @ warrant book in which the numberof ail the warrants signed by him should be registered, with tneir dates, the amounts, the name of the payee, Ac. By tais means Mayor Wickham felt certain that when a city creditor should apply to the office io koow if lis warrant had been signed he could be informed on the spot wituout being compelled to ROAM AROUT THE CITY HALL Irom department to department lor weeks before he could’ find out anything about it. ‘the Comp- troller, when he recetved the Mayor’s letter in January, of course kicked @ litle, but the Mayor remaining firm in Ms determination, he finally sent ali Warrants over to te Mayor’s office duly registered, dated and numbered, The wisdom of this system soon became manifest, and people not in favor with the Comptroller personally who be- fore were never able for weeks at a time to learn whether their warrants had been signed by the Mayor tound no ailll- ity whatever under the Lew _ system, This, Of course, Was gailing to the Comptroiicr, simply because he was no longer able to gratily his spite against certain creditors by keeping them in ignorance a8 to the condition and where. abouts of their Warrants; but ve nursed his wrath to Keep it warm, doubtiess, watching, day alier day, jor some good opportunity to give it 1ull vent. The opportunity came on Friday last. 1c appears that some twenty warrants were received from the “inance Department on that day by tic Mayor, who, after giving tema hasty examina. tion 10 see to Whom they were made payamie and jor What services, signed them. Just as he lad | signed the iast of the batch he discovered that 1% Was neither dated, registered hor numbered, and on glancing over the rest he found that wey were, one and ail, in the same incomplete condi- tion, He at once sent them over to the Comp- troher by a clerk, with ths request that they be dated, numbered and registered, so that the clerk could take a copy of the dates, numbers aud registrations, to be recorded, as ustal, in the Mayor's Warrant book, Mr. -Harle, the Deputy Comprrolier, to whom the clerk made this reasonable request, and who, ever since he took upon himself the onerous ducy of reviewlug in puviic print aecsions given against the Comptroller by Supreme Court judges, has’ got to be as inflated with bi own importance as the Comptroller limsels, fatiy re- fused to comply. On being iniormed of this the Mayor had the warrants returned to him, when he at once cancelled his signature 02 ev. one of them. ile aiterward sent aietier to Mr. Green calung his attention to the letter he (the Mayor) had sent to bim ou tne 7th of January, in whicd be had msisted upon it that all warrapts sbould be dated, registered and numbered beiore veing COUNTERSIGNED BY THE MAYOR, and that since that time the warrants had come to him [rom the Finance Department in proper form. He also called his attention to the tact of his having inadvertently signed the warrants he bad received Irom the Finance Department on Priday when they were not dated, &c., and to ine reiusal of the Deputy Comptroiler to have thea perlected. ‘And thus the matter stands, and wriggle as he may Mr. Green in this matver gives but anotier ijustration of bis intense ambition 28 au obstruc- tionist, Which bas so olten created contusion in the public departments to the detriment of the pubic inverest. So, i the first of the month comes along and the pay roll Warrants and others should remain unsigned because of the Comptrolier’s determin- auon to have his own way in this warrant bust- nessa, regardiess of the public interests, people will know who to hola responsible.

The question of patronage was discussed at jengtu, and as the committees were not yet ready to report no decided action was taken. There Were some compiaiuts about insuiicient patronage, Assemblyman Waebner, among overs, stating that, in his opinion, the representatives of the people, such as Aldermen and Assemlyinen, should have @ voice in the distribution, ter of taxation also came up, but as tie com- mittee’s report on this subject will not be pre sented jor some time nothing definite was done A letter was read calling the attention ol the com mittee to republican election irauds in Connecti- cut, and was placed on dle.
