How an Amateur Detective Outwitted an
Embezzler—Posing as a Forger In Exile
Who Knew of a Rich Deposit of Ore |
That Had Never Been Reported.
“I never was in Mexico but oncerand j
then I went as an amateur detective,”;
taid the mining expert. ‘‘It happened j
this way: A friend of mine in Pittsburg
had his confidential clerk—to whom be
had given an opportunity by trusting
him fully—skip with $ 10,000. He knew
where he was, just over the border
from San Diego. But he was safe, for
he kept religiously on the wrong tdde
of the line. Several detectives had been
sent down there to lure him over, but
in someway ho had detected the detect
ive in them, for they often acquire a
professional air in spite of their best
efforts to the contrary.
“ J knew that my only chance would
be to go and live there as a fugitive
from justice myself and so secure his
entire confidence. I decided to be a
forger. I took up my abode in the
wretched little town and in about 24
hours was so sick of it that I was on the
point of throwing up the whole scheme
and going back. But my friend had
done me many a favor in business, and
in decency I owed him some return. Of
course I did not make the slick man s
acquaintance. I was determined he
should make mine. He held off for sev
eral days, evidently thinking I was a
detective and expecting me to make, as
they had always done, approaches to
him. But 1 kept away, as if I were sus
picious of him. The fellow was dread
fully homesick, and I don’t wonder, in
that place. He used to go out on the
desert and look at the stars and stripes
across the border and wish he dared go
back. He evidently began to think he
was worse imprisoned than if he had
been in some penitentiary.
“Finally one day he ventured to ad
dress me. I replied very coldly to his
salutation, which only made him the
more anxious to know me. He began to
inquire into my business and find out
what I had come for. I gave him no spe
cial satisfaction until one day I said that
I had come for a change of air. With the
same kind of air in the United States a
few miles away this was, of course, ab
surd, and he concluded, as I intended
he should, that I was there for the same
reason he was, but I plied him with no
questions. Finally, in his impatience,
he burst out with:
“^What’s the use of beeping up this
pretense longer? I know and you know
that we are both on the same errand
down here. It is true, as you say, we
can’t live over there’—pointing to
ward the country over the border. ‘ Let’s
own up and have done with the farce. ’
So we confessed to each other, he tell
ing me all about his crime, which I
knew already, and I telling him all
about my imaginary iniquity.
“That was as far as we got for
awhile, but it did hiiq good. For it left
him free to talk. He was very home
sick, and we both acknowledged that it
would be almost pleasanter to give our
selves up and serve out our terms than
to stay there the rest of our lives. I once
or twice hinted that I was ready to do
so. But ho wasn’t, and I knew that no
ordinary inducement would get him
where he copld be taken. But he had
no opportunity of investing his money,
and his cupidity naturally forced him
to see that he had made a very poor bar
gain if all he was to get out of his ras
cality* wjis to sit and spend it slowly in
t little hole of a Mexican town.

saidi
that .
“I, had already interested him with
my storfeS of fortunes that had been
made in lucky mine investments, and
told him I knew of one rich deposit
which I had never reported to any one,
intending to invest the amount of my
forgery in its development if 1 could
get some more to put with it. I told
him it was in an out of the way local
ity in southern Arizona, and that we
could get there without detection if we
would go on foot or burro back and
avoid the railroads. Finally he con
cluded that he was willing to take the
risk if I would and go and look at the
property. The rest was easy. I wrote
at once for an officer to be ready to head
ns off while crossing the Colorado river.
We had traveled some distance without
being challenged or exciting suspicion.
I threw off my pretended apprehension,
declared that we were safe from all in
terference and that we might as well
take it easy. This proved contagious
and I saw that I would have no diflficul
fcy in getting him to the point I had
designated to the officers.
‘‘We were riding slowly along in the
hot sun of the desert when suddenly
from behind a butte two men on horses
shot out and rode swiftly toward us and
were upon us almost before we had time
to realize it. Although I had expei ted
them, I confess I was taken by surprise
—it was done so quickly and success
fully. Of course they handcuffed me as
well as him. But before we had reached
the railroad station they had released
me, and he understood how. he had been
fooled. I expected he would burst out
in curses and reproaches, especially
