Jourdan thonght one amart man might do, and sent Detective Wooldridze, with instructions to travel all night If necessary to find the prisoner, Between 6 and 7 o'clock on Wednesday morning Thomas was taken Into tho Franklin street police station, and thence to court, but as the books and other evi- dence were wanting, he was remanded to the station, so that they and other evidence might be produced. It was, however, suspected that Mr. Johnson might attempt to compound tho felony by making soma arrangement with the prisoner; therefor was cautioned on that enbject. " On Weduesday afternoon, Capt.

Further, at time named, ‘Thomas held no power of altoraey irom Mr. Joho: son or the firm giving him nuthority to receive money for them, Johnson could not swear even to the correctness of vieso entries in his cash book, nor could he make any specie charge of embeazlo ment #ines Thomas had been empowered to collect money.
