8 THE ERA OF FORGERIES. Systematic Operations in This and Other States. CHECK AND SCRIP RAISERS. a Important Arrests Made by the Detectives. Immodiately on the heels of the Gilman forgery there comes to light agother series of forgeries, per- peated in the most daring and skiiful manner. 1 weems that the criminals in the present instance bave Deen engaged Im their nefarious work for a period of two years without molestation, and this mainly for the reason that their victims were too much chagrined at the manner in which they were !mposed op to make their losses public ‘The Police Court reeords show that on Monday Detectives Fields and Connor arrested William H, Lyman and J. 0. Hogan om a charge of forgery; that yesterday they were taken to the Tombs Police Court and were there re- manded to the officers tor removal to Catskill, where ‘she or? which they were arrested was committed, and that before their removal a writ of habeas corpus ‘was sued out ip their bebalf, returnabie this morning before the Supreme Court. In the recital below the operators, according to De tective Pinkerton, are the above oamed Lyman and Hogan, under various aliases, They wore assisted by a third party, who is still at large. The manner to which they perpetrated tue forgeries was this:—They purchased two drafts from the same bank on the *ame date, one for @ large amount, another for @ email amount. The emaller draft was them altered to correspond with the larger one and deposited in some distant bank tor collection, The bank of deposit, if any doubt arose, would nacu- rally telegraph to the bauk issuing the draft to know if @@ A certain day they bad igeuod suck ® drat, and the answor naturally would be in the affirmative. Tho @rait would them be cashed at once and the recipient of the money would send a cipher telegram announcing ‘that fact to his confederate who nad purchased the gen- uine draftof tbat amount. The latier worthy would then present himseit to the bank and explain what owing to certain ciecumstances be was unable to ure the dralt he had purcuased and desired tho return of uis money. ‘The tun..8 wore usually handed back without a ques- tion. The detectives say that the amount realized by these experts has amouvted to $35,000 or $40,000. A recital of the cases that have come to light will beat Mlostrate their method of doing business, THEIR OPRRATIONS IN 1876, In May, 1876, @ large lot of draits or small amounts were purchased {rom the National Iron Bank of Fall Village, Conn., and the Kinderhook Baok, end “raised”? as tollows:— $37 39, raised t0...... $1,490 00 $36 98, raised to. 936 00 §46 27, raised to. 1,646 00 $67 18 raised to. 167 78 These draits were deposited with the detunct Abing- @on Square Savings Bauk aud collected for the “raised?” amounts, In March, 1876, & party, giving the name of H.

In the meantime the smail draft was raised to cofrespond in number, date and amount Yo soe larger one and deposited for coliection with A.

Saxton purchased a draft {rom the Salt Spri National Bank of Syracuse on the First National bank of New ‘York tor $1,900, and on the same date purchased another draft from and on the banks named for §19. The smaller drait was then raised to $1,900, and both draits ‘were manipulated in the same mauner and with the game success us in the inst instance. H THEY MMET DANGRK IN XEW JERSEY. On June 20 s man giving the oame of William Brown purchased trom the First National Bank of Briage- rt, Conn., a druit for $1,460 on the Importers aud traders’ Bank of New York, aod on the same date purchased another draft for a small amouat, which was immediately raised to the amount of the lurger one. The following day be appeared at Rabway, N. and opened an account 5 in the Rahway National Bank, depositing $400 in currency and two small drafts, oue from s Bridgeport bank and the other trom a bank in Stam- ford. The draits were duly honored. He then de- posited his “raised” $1,450 draft for collection. As a Matter of pradeuce the cashier wrote to the Import ors’ and Traders’ Bauk, Tue latier telegraphed to Bridgeport, and was avswerea by telegraph “all right.”” For some reason the cashier of the Importers’ and Traders’ Bank was still suspicious, and Le mailed to the Bridgeport Bank the “ruise¢”” draft for examina- tion, So skiliul was the forgery that the cashier in Bridgeport still insisted that ail was right and returned the drat to New York with ® letter to that. effect. The film was femoved from his eyes next morning when William Brown No. 1, with the genuine draft in bis band, approached nis desk and suid he was unable to use the draft and wisbed bis money back. The cashier caused lis arrest and telegraphed to their core respondent to cause the arrest of the Rahway Brown, but the latier geotieman could not thea be found, CAPTURE OF BROWN, It happened, however, thatin the latter part of June Police sergeant Wright, of Rabway, observed Brown on a train in which be, too, was travelling and the Sergeant determined to arrest him. Brown seemed to divine the intentions of the officer and jumped from the train at Elizabeth. The Sergeant gave chase but the enemy was fieeier of foot aud made for cover, Later in the day he was found | under a farmer’s barn in company with a young man who gave the name of Wilham Williams, | and both were delivered to Chiel of Police Kerns.

While the whole country bas been notified of bis being required by the New York authoritics is is said tat no less than seven detectives are rangucking the city for his truil, Nothing has beon made known as to the disporition of the large sums of money which ne fraudulently obtained.
