Secret Folice Who are Really Secret Who Actually do Detect. Showing How Neatly Bffectively They do Their Work. An Incident and How MacMil Some five or six years ago, being on a visit to Paris, I went to seea friend, a French gentleman 1 had kuown for many years, who, with his wife and only daughter, lived on Second in a 1's Magazine small house in the Faubourg St. Ger. main, 1 found the family, one and all, in the groatest possible excite ment. During the night their domi- cile had been broken into, and prop- erty to the value of about 30,000 francs (£1,200). consisting ot plate, jowels, money and bonds, had been stolen. My friond was by no means a rich man, and the loss was to him a very serious one, The strange part of the affair was that no one scemed to have the slightest idea by whom or how the lost things had been taken. They o kept in a large iron-clamped chest, which was never moved out of the selle a manger, and which was found in its usual place next morning, but with the lock forced open. The servants of the family were ounly two in number and consisted of an elderly man and his wife, who had been in the same service for more than ten years. They did not slecp on the same floor as their master and mis- tress; but, as is usual in Paris, occu- pied a a room some stories higher in the mansard or attic. They had a key by which to let themsclves m from the back stairs to the kitchen in the morning; but at the time of the robbery neither one nor the other had been in the dining room where the chest was kept until after my friend’s daughter had found out what had happened. The lady of the family had locked the chest - it was her usual habit before she had retired to rest the previous night, The key was found hanging on a nail at the head of her bed, its usual place. The theft must have been coromitted between 11 p. m. when the chest was locked and 8a, m. when her daughter discovered the loss. The concierge declared that no one save those who lived in the house had passed his lodge during those hours, The door of the apartment opening on the main staircase was found locked and the key on the in- side. Altogether it was a most mys- terious business of which no one could make anything save that the property had vanished; therefore, it must have been taken by some one. LE RUE DE JERUSALEM. My friend resolved to go at once to the Rue de Jerusalem —the Scotland yard of Paris - and ask the authorities to inquire into the matter. I sug- gested an agent de polico or police- man from the nearest station might be called, but was told that that was not the way they did things in Paris. The policemen that kept order in the streets, and those whose business it is to discover what has become of stolen property, are two departments per- fectly distinct from each other. Be- ing anxious to see how our neighbors managed affairs of this kind, and whether they were better up to their work than our London detectives, I accompanied my friend to the Pretec- ture de Police, where he sent in his card, and we were at once ushered into the presence of a quiet-looking elderly gentleman, one of the sous- chefs of the departinent, who looked more like a bank manager or head clerk in a large mercantile house, than a man whose occupation was to indi- cate where the thieves and others who were ‘‘wanted” could be laid handson. A Frenchman is nothing if he is not polite. The individual into whose sanctum we were shown welcomed us with a civilty which nothing could ex- ceed. He heard my friend’s story from first to last, made a few notes with a pen in a kind of diary which he had on his desk, and now and then asked a question or two respecting the house and apartment which had been robbed, the servants, visitors and other masters. But he did not de- tain us long. The interview was over in twenty minutes. The sous-chef then told my friend that he would send one of his subordinates to see the chest the next day, In the mean- time would my friend prepare a listand as minute a description as possible of the property that had been stolen? Asa rule Frenchmen, no matter to what rank of life they belong, have the sreatest possible respect for all who are i any way connected with the police and never dream of disputing what they say; but my friend was somiewhat annoyed at what ho deemed usolens delay, and asked whether the polic gent could not bo sent at once. The sous-chet, however, overruled his ob- jection, and said it was best for many reasons the agent should not go to the house till next day. “Tu the first place,” he said, *I do not wish any one but yourselves to kuow that the gentleman who will call on you to- morrow i8 in any way connected with the police. He will send up a card and you will be kind enough to rec him as a friend—talk to him of the robbery in the presence of your servants as you would to any casual acquaintance,” He then turned to me and said, laughingly: “We do not wanage these affairs as you do in London, We don't afliche our police; we don't send constables (he pro- nounced the word ‘conestabel’) to make a fuss aud put every one on their @ we like to do things ly, the rosult ia better.” He then howid us aud we touk our departure, not | ured as to what the upshot of would be, the aff A PABIS DETI( “Un monsieur qui desire vous voir,’ said my friend’s man servant next day, putting a card into his master’s hand, just as we were finishing our midday meal, and a gentleman-like middle-aged man was shown in. He was close shaved as to the chin and upper lip, but wore small whiskers, more like an Englishman of business of ten years ago than a native of la belle France. He was well, but not fashionably dressed, and carried a amall cane, with which he kept gently tapping his boot when not speaking, Whila the servant was in the room he confingd his conversation to generali- ties, and gave his opinions freely on the political subjects of the day. When my friend apoke of the robhery and pointed to the chest out of which the property had been taken, he uwn-fy glanced at it, looked at the lock for a moment, and turned the conversation, Ho asked madame to call her maid and talk to her on some indifferent subject. This was done, and 1 watched his face during the time the woman was present; but he merely looked at her once, and continued talking to me. The only point on which he scemed really anxious was to obtain a fuller description of the articles lost than that he had been already furnished with My friend offored to give him dotails then and there, but he declined to wait for i, on the plea that by pro longing his visit he might arouse sus picion amongst theservants, We sug ted meeting him near the Rue de Jerusalem; but he laughed at the idea, saying that 1f he were once seen near the police oflico his occupation would be gone, as he would be no longer of any great use as an agont of the polico, So an appointment was made to moet it the Cafe du Helder on the Bou levards, where a more detailed descrip- tion of the lost property should be given to him, He then took his leave, but asked me to accompany him down stairs, 80 as to impress the concierge with tho idea that he was an acquaintance of somestanding. Bo- fore arriving at the bottom, I found my friend had managed to dirty his cont in a manner which mnecessituted his turning into the concierge's lodge to horrow a clothesbrush, therchy gaining an_opportuity of casting an round the small room and on its occupior. To me, being initiated, the object was palpable, though quite un- suspected by the individual 1 ques tion. When the brushing was over we walked out together, and in the course of conversation we touched upon the way in which some persons can 8o disguise thgmselves as o hido their individuality from their most in- timate friends. EFPECTIVE DISGUISE, T expressed myselt as being doub ful whether this could be really done, provided the parties to be deceived were on the lookout for such dece tion. My companion diftered from me, and offered to disguise himselt ao effectually that he would in the course of the next twenty four hours speak to me for at least ten minutes without arousig my suspicions. 1 accepted the challenge, and staked the price of a dejeuner at any cafo he would like to name. He agreed, and the very same day won the bet in the following manne Shortly after leaving the dotective [ met an old friend, who asked me to dine with him at Versailles that even- ing. Tagreed to do so, but could not leave Paris as early as my friend in- tended to do 80, and therefore told him T should go down by the 5:30 train by the Gare St. Lazare. 1 did 80, and as I got to a first class carriage T remarked a short, gentlemanly-look- ing man, with white hair, who followed me into the same compartment. Frenchman-like he began to talk about things in general, and we chatted, more or less, nearly all the way to Versailles When within ten minutes walk or 8o of our destination my new friend quietly took off his hat, pulled off a wig, got rid of a moustache, and to my ntter amazement sat revealed before me as my friend the detective! How he had managed to find out that I was gring to Versailles—which T had no_idea of myself when I left him—or how he had so eftectually concealed his ap- pearance that I, sitting within three feet of him, had no idea that he was the man I had left some four hours previously, are problems which I can- not golve. The detective himself only laughed when T asked him how he had contrived i'. He was evidently greatly flattered at the amazement 1 displayed; but beyond showing me with some pride his wig and mus- tache, he was very reticent and would enter into no details, That he had fairly won the breakfast there could be no doubt, but he said he would rather put off the event until he could sce his way as to whether or not he should be able to recover a part or the whole of the property which my friena had lost. We then parted, he taking the train back to Paris, and I going on to the house where 1 was en- gaged to dine, ~ THE ROBBERY DISCOVERED, This was on the Thursday evening. On the Monday, about 11 a. m., the waiter of the hotel where I was stay- ing told me that a gentleman wished to speak to me. He was shown up, and this time the detective was not disguised. He told me that for rea- sons which I would learn latter he thought it better to come to me than to g0 to my friend’s house in the Fauburg 8t. Germain, He said he had good news; for that he believed the greater part of thestolen porperty had been recovered, and asked mo to %0 to the prefocture de police on the following dy, about 3 p. m., and to take my friend with me, We did so aud found that what the de- tective had told me was true, Among other valuables that had been stolen was a canvas bag containing between two and thr hundred napoleons, These had d uppeared; but the jewelry, the plate, and what wag still “more surprising, the bonds, payable, as all such docu ments are in France au porteur (to the bearer), had been found and were ready for my friend to identify. This was casily done, but nothing was al- lowed to be touched for the present, 18 it would have to be sworn to at the trinl which weuld shorily take pla When iy fricnd urned homy found that while he was ut the prof ture the concierge had been arrested for conniving at the theft, and in the lodge were found, in @ hidden cup- board, the bag containing the money. In & word, without fuss, publicity, or loss of time, the whole of the prop- erty which had been stolen the week before was in the hands of the police. In ten days more the trisl was over. The concierge and two of his relations wero each condemned to five years of travaux forces (penal servitud my friend goi back the whole of his prop- erty, and, what to me as an En‘;lin‘n- wan seemed muchmore extraordinary, the total expense of the proceedings came to something like 100 francs (£4). Evyen this payment was nearly all voluntary, for my friend inslsted upon making a small present to the Grori B F, A I MARCH 2. 1882 - detoctiv well. 0 who had done his work so FRENCH AND ENGLISH METHODS, To give any dotails as to how the valuables wero found, or how the rob bery was traced to:the concierge. is not in my power. The Fronch poher aro invariably very reticent, parcen larly in cases like the one 1 have at- tempted to describo. They have a theory that publicity on such ocea sions is A very great mistako and hinders justico. T ealled, with my friend, upon the sous-chief to thank T for the trouble he had taken. He was a very intelligent person and evi dently a man oducation " had been in England on busines connected with his office, and spol very freely about our and their “way of doing He considered that such of the a8 wore employed in maintainic lic order as among the very 1 Europe, Butof our detective syston he had a very poor opimon. As he smd very truly, no ner is rob. hory committed m dand than the u'most publicity is «iven to the whole affair, and the thieves are as well aware of what steps are being taken of busines g pub in to unravel the matter as the police themselves, Tt is tene that a certain number of our police were plain clothes instead of uniform, but it is cortain that these are as well known to the criminal classes of London as their brothron who wear blue tunies and helmets, In Paris the dotective who is en- waged in tracing crimo is, 80 to sponk, hidden from public view Ho rarely woes even to the profecture de p § he has his order mven him eithor by a confidential agent or by a letter written in cypher. He mixos in soci- oty and mects all sorts and conditions of men, but his occupation is known to very fow porsons indeed. So much is this the case that the French detectiven vory seldom know each o her; that is to say, Mosiour A. may bo very well acquainted with Mon- siour B., but neither of them know that the other is omployed by the po- lice. I was told by one of the author- ities in the Rue de Jurusalom that in London the undiscovered robberies are to those that are discovered in the proportion of three to ome. If the French police are right in their state- wents tne liecer the robbery that takes place in Paris the greater chance there 1s of its boing found out, where- 18 in London we know the exact con- trary to be the case A Short Road to Health.
