Police Watching a Young Man Who Likes to Follow Fire Engines, Following the arrest of a man sus- pected of being the Yorkville firebug in Fifty-elght street near Fifth avenue Yast night, the firemen in the district where a pyromaniac has been* working for @ week had something like q rest. ‘There were no fires started in the hall ways of tenements last night, and the fact alone serves to strengthen the susploion against the man under ar- rest, He 1s a Spaniard and says his name fs John Larringa. An apartment house elevator boy, named George Crossman, emught him late last night hiding in the cellar at No. 10 East Fifty-elghth ayreet and ejected him. A short time Jeter Policeman McDonald saw the game man sneaking Into a hallway at No, % East Fifty-eighth street, carry ing a bundle of excelsior under his arm, and placed him under arrest, Remanded for Examination. In Yorkville Polfce Court to-day Lar- ringa was remanded for an examination next Monday In $3,000 ball. He sald he had picked up the excelslor from a pile on the site of the new German Theatre, at Fifty-elghth street Madison avenue, and was looking for @ place where he could sleep when ar- rested, He positively denied setting any fires. When questioned about his move- ments of fate he said he came to New York six weeks ago from Troy, where he had been employed tn the stables of ex-Senator Edward Murphy. Since arriving here, he said, he has worked as a dishwasher in restaurants and ter in saloons, His last places of \ployment yere at One Hundred and y-eighth street and Madison ay ue, and One Hundred and Thi: fourth street and Highth aveaas, F al Peter Seery {8 looking up his nga says he can show that not in the vicinity of York- was ville when the incendiary fires were started. Marshal Seery and Battalion Chtet rch of the firebug, are not confident that Larringa is the right man, The fact that no fires were atarted last night makes them par- ticularly apprehensive that the fireby with the cunning of a perverted mlad simply took a night off to disartn suspicion and will start in again to- night In the same neighborhood. Ways of Pyromaniacs. It {s a pecullarity of pyromantacs who start fires in tenements that after they suspend operations, which they tnvariably do, when the authorities are fully aroused, they return to the same district to resume operations, About ten years ago a man Was caught who had started at least one hundred fires !n the lower Harlem east aide district, H» would remain | tive for three or four days at a and then go right back and start a fire in a block where he had started half a dosen a week before, That is why the section covered by the opera- tions of the Yorkville firebug js thor- oughly patroled by firemen and police- men in plain clothes, ‘A young man of good family in York- ville, who has been seen at near! the fires started by the pyromaniac, ts under constant surveillance.
