L2NCE PLAN—A LEATHER MERCHANT WHO
* MirSNKD ULs CREDITORS — FOBOINO HIS
FATHER-IN-LAW’S NAME—SWAMPED
IN THE SALOON BUSINESS.
From the Philadelphia Telegraph.
John F. Hulsem&n is a Philadelphian,
thirty-three years of age, and respectfully con
nected. He is married, has one child, and
formerly kept house at 517 Vine street. He
was rather handsome than otherwise, and vras
the lion in the high-toned “set” in which he
moved, and was celebrated for bis conviviali
ty. He early began the leather business and
pursued for a time his calling with such appa
rent care and fidelity that his name was a syn
onym for integrity, and all with whom
he dealt believed him “the very soul of
honor.”
L MISFORTUNES BEGIN.
ktablished himself at 3-16 North
J, whore he did moderately well:
‘» S21 NortljJPbtrtl street, where
SX&HiG was burned out. This
catastrophe did not deter him. He bought a
store at 346 Dellwyn street, for $10,000, pay
ing only about $1,000 down, and letting the
mortgage run. But one day in April, 1871,
much to the surprise and commiseration of a
large community of business men, he failed,
lie was forced into bankruptcy, and his liabil
ities were found to aggregate $72,000. He
called a meeting of bis creditors, and con
vinced them that a settlement, without push
ing proceedings in the Bankrupt Court, would
be to their advantage, and the result was that
they settled for 75 cents on the dollar.
HE STARTS ANEW.
llulseman then took a fresh start, but this
time the star of fate blinked on him from the
very beginning. He dealt heavily; he built
up a strong credit, but—well as he might
conceal it from the men on the street—he
saw that the crash was impending. In view of
this fact he concluded to make as much out
of the affair as he could, and throw credit to
tbe dogs. He bought heavily on three
months' time, and sold what he bought for
whatever he could get. He gave many prom
issory notes, upon all of which he forged the
indorsement of his father-in-law, Mr. Her
man Sutter, a well-known wool dealer, of 315
German street These notes were all taken as
good as the solid cash, and so well had young
Hnlseman maintained his credit up to this
time that the genuineness of these notes was
never questioned, and though holders of
them olten met Mr. Sutter, he was never
asked whether his name upon their backs was
forged or not, so that he remained is blissful
ignorance of what onr hopeful merchant was
doiug.
HIS FLIGHT.
In this manner Hulseman obtained above
$40,000 in ready cash, and in May, 1872, gath
ering up this spoil, with all his books and all
his available effects, he disAp)>e&red.
Before this he ran out, in one week, from
$15,000 to $20,000 worth of goods from his
store, which men in New York, Baltimore
and elsewhere had placed in his hands to dis
pose of, the proceeds of which he calmly
placed in his own pocket. Then he left His
absence was soon discovered, and upon a
proper representation of the facts in the Uni
ted States District Court, he was again ad
judged % bankrupt and James M. West, Esq., I
was appointed assignee of the estate. A sale |
of Hulseman’s effects was soon made, and the i
net proceeds thereof amounted to $2,500, j
while upon a careful examination the sched
ule of his liabilities amounted to $60,000.
IUS EFFORTS AT CONCEALMENT.
For those notes on short time that he had
set afloat he provided payment, but on others
to which he is said to have forged his father-
in- law’s name, and which had a much longer
time to rnn, he provided payment in install
ments.
Two ol these installments were met through
the agency of a third party, Hnlseman ap-
appnrently doing his best to keep liis father-
in-law Iron] discovering the forged indorse
ment. Bat on the olU of April, 1873, the
final installment not coming to time, the
notes went to protest, and Mr. Butter was
called upon to pay them. The value of the
notes protested was $10,000. Mr. Sutter,
looking at tbe indorsements, immediately da-
elared them to be forgeries ot his name, bat
suit was commenced in the District Court
against him. His defense in each case is
thus stated:
agt. .Sutter. 1). C. if., ’73. -Vo. 2,-
oCO. County of Philaddpltai, ss.—Herman Sut
ter being duly sworn according to law, de
poses and says that he has a just defense of
the following character: That he never made,
or authorized to be made, the instrument a
copy of which is filed, [a promissory note—
lieporter], and that the same is a forgery.
All of which he expects to be able to prove ou
the trial cf tbe cause. H. Sutter.

ACTION or THE CREDITORS.
I'pon this denouement a committee was ap
pointed to represent tbe creditors, and James
M. West was engaged as counsel. Benjamin
Franklin, an experienced Philadelphia detec
tive, was then consulted. Circulars were sent
all over, even to Europe, and to tbe main
cities in Canada. Photographs of the delin
quent were placed in the hands of skillful
men appointed for the purpose. On the first
of this month the first clue was obtained from
St Louis. There he was living out his mon
ey in dissipation. He was in the saloon bus
iness, not standing behind the bar, but occu
pying the responsible and much more digni
fied, if not respectable, position of backer.
There, too, it was that that fair siren. thA wid
ow of Mike McCool, the once doughty pugil-
i st, came tripping upon the, eeene, and ap
peared with CoL Joseph Urrubin, which was
the soubriquet under v}4ch he tried to con-
cefei-himself. /
— gHKLljttTHE HONEY WENT.
He invested^BO.OOO in the Wash Home,
which was not aflanncLry, bat a grog shop.
There MoilU was installed as queer], and to
gether with one Pete Mannering and another
siren, made the Wash Home a pleasant re
treat for Hulseman. But William It. Hnlfish,
one of tbe agency operators, reached St
Louis early last week, and, with the aid of
some local detectives, soon discovered the
hiding place of the delinquent leather mer
chant of Philadelphia—the dashiug Colonel
Joseph Houbin. On Thursday they found
The Wash Home, bnt Hnlseman had gone on
to Chicago. The operator started for Chi
cago, but Hulseman passed him on the St.
Louis train.
THE CULPRIT CAPTURED.
Within an hour after Hnlfish arrived in
< hicago, be forwarded a telegram for the im
mediate arrest of his game, and by the time
he reached St Louis again ha found Hnlse
man safe in the custody of detectives Tracy
and Styles of that place. Hnlfish arrived in
Philadelphia on Monday with his prisoner,
ironed. Detective Franklin was at the depot,
and between the two detectives the prisoner
was marched to the agency, 45 Sooth Third
wtreet There he admitted the troth of all
that he was charged with.
‘* Where's tbe $40,000 yon carried off?” ask
ed Franklin.
“ Gone—every cent gone."
“ Where ?”
“ Saloons ! Saloons in Philadelphia—sa
loons in Chicago—saloons in St. Louis—sa
loons everywhere!"
“ Drank it all up ? ”
“No, was banker—started them, yon know,
and sank the cash. That was the way of it.'
-How much did yon yon sink in St.
Lonis ? ”
“ Well, I sank $10,000 in the ‘ Home.’ ”
“ And have got nothing now ? ”
“ Not a red—1 borrowed a hundred from a
fellow, and was about to come back here to
give myself up.”
LODGKD IN aOYAMEKSISG.
He aaged if he coaid find bail in $12,-
No, he oonld not; would rather go down
beTSlt^^ 0 a CAaamitmf.ntjy* made out, and
aregrated in Moy* III musing. His
arrest in St. Louis was secured upon a requi
sition issued by Gov. HartranfL When the
forgeries were brought to light an indictment
was received upon which tbe requisition was
seemed.
Hulseman was onco a dashing Lieutenant-
Colonel of one of our militia regiments, and
conducted himself with princely liberality to-
ward bis fellow warriors, giving at times sup
pers that cost $1,000 apiace.
No Cholera in Memphis-
Three most prominent citizens of Memphis
died, says the Memphis Appeal, of the 25th
nit., one of them of the remote effects of a
surgical operation, another of a chronic dis
ease that became acute, and a third ot expo
sure in the swamps. The very prominence
of these excellent gentlemen, universally
known as they were, and their concurrent
deaths, begat alarm, and then it went abroad,
the old story of three black crows—and at
Holly Springs we have it that the cholera
rages. The weather is excessively hot. Peo-
plo come to the city and indulge in hideously
hot whisky and then in ice-cold beverages ;
and there if an unfortunate class that eat fish
that may be cooked forty times and is again
raw whenever cold. They devour stale vege
tables that are par-boiled in whisky and solar
heat after being swallowed. These epicurean
philosophers sometimes die very sadienly, as
they should. And then the story again gath
ers volcune and force, and wings its way across
the country, like a bird of evil omen, nipping
its pallid wings and croaking like Virgil’s sin
istra cornix, and the people arc frightened like
barnyard fowls. Bat there is no other chole
ra in Memphis than that which exists here
every year from the samo causes, in the very
same localities, among the very same people.
Moreover, when we believe that the Asiatic
cholera pervades the city we will say so at any
cost.

MANUFACTURERS OF
A Tall Column.—The papers say that a
Philadelphia manufacturer is preparing a plan
for a column 1,000 feet high, to be construct
ed emirely of iron, in open work, from the
summit of which the grounds of the Centen
nial Exposition are to be illuminated by
means of a Drummond light; and in true Yan
kee style, it is boasted that it will be the
loftiest strnctnre in the world. But it will
not necessarily be the most beautiful, which
is better worth trying for. The tallest thing
of the kind now in existence is the open work
central spire of the Cathedral at Rouen, in
France, erected a few yeais ago to replace the
one destroyed by lightning in 1832, and noth
ing uglier was ever thrust in the face of heav
en. The builders were determined to bnild it
a few feet higher than the celebrated spire of
Strasbourg Cathedral, bnt their work is as
hideous as that of the medieval architect is
stately and magnificent. Probably the next
highest works of man’s hands are two chimneys
of chemical works in Gloscow, one of which
is four hundred and sixty-eight and the other
four hundred and fifty feet high. These have
no architectural pretensions of course, but
they are quite as fine in their way as Bunker
Hill Monument, which, from a little distance,
looks like a stone chimney among the sur
rounding brick ©nee of manufacturing estab
lishments.
A life insurance case has jast been decided
by the United States Circuit Court at Des
Moines, Iowa. A wife brought suit against
the Mutnal Benefit Life Insurance Company
for a policy on the life of a husband, who dis
appeared mysteriously at Chicago in 1865,
and has not since been beard from. The
company claimed that the disappearance was
no proof of death, bnt letters ot administra
tion had been taken out, and the court deci
ded that such letters were evidence of his
death, and that the policy must be paid.
