Empie, the druggist on upper Broadway, had been arrcsted for running off mortgaged goods, and that he had es- caped from the marshal. Tt appears that Mrs. McAllister had a chattel mortgage on Empie’s stock, and it is claimed that he shipped several boxes of the goods in- to Nebraska. 1t was on this that he was arrested, and the bond being fixed at $200, he hunted about to get signers. Foster Bros. had a claim of $142, and Empie applied to them, and rep- resented that he had three trunks filled with goods valued at least at §300 which he would turn over to them as security if they would go his bond. They got out an attachment quietly and then walted to see the trunks, He, supposing that they wanted to see if the securlty was ample, went to his room in company with one of the Kostors, Sheriff Guittar and his deputy’ Clatter buck, who hal the attachment papers. The city marshal went with Empie to see that he did not escape. Only one trunk was shown up and that was scized on, Then, in leaving the building, the light being put out, Empire started back to lock a door and improved the oppor- tunity of escaping. He was not found until yesterday morninz, when he ap- peared at an early hour at Mr. Clatter- buck’s house and delivered himself up.
