VAUGHN ARRESTED
IN BALTIMORE
Superintendent of Orphan Homo ut
Greenville, who Escaped from Prison
After Being Arrested for Assault
I poii Inmates, Arrested in HaltI
morc Sundii) School.
Baltimore, Sept. 22.?T. I*. Vaughn,
ertwhlle superintendent of the South
C arolina 1. O. O. P. Orphanage at
Greenville! who sawed his way) to
liberty from the jail there on the night
of .June 26th, where he had been con
fined on charges of criminal miscon
duct toward inmates of the orphan
age, was arrested today in a Baltimore
Sunday school.
Vaughn's arrest was brought about
by Mr. U. 10. Allen. Jr., young son of
Mr. 11. NV. Allen, of Greenville. Mr.
Allen, who came to Baltimore a few
days ago to accept a position in a
bank here, detected Vaughn as both
were on their way to Sunday school.
Following Vaughn until he entered
the church, Mr. Allen then turned
and called detectives.
Several minutes after the detectives
received the message, thy arrived on
the scene and walking up to Vaughn
Detective Armstrong said: "Hello
Vaughn, what are you doing in
Baltimore?"
A hunted look crept into tin' man's
eyes and he made a movement as if
to escape. The other detective grab
bed him by the arm and he was taken
to the headquarters olllee, where he
denied to the captain of detectives
that he was the man wanted in
Greenville.
Later when confronted with a pic
ture of himself, Vaughn broke down
and admitted that he was the man
wanted.
He was searched and in a wallet in
his side pocket was found $444?. Sev
eral newspaper clippings, taken from
The Greenville News relating to his
escape from jail were also found.
Since his arrival in this city several
weeks ago. Vaughn lias been a stu
dent at the Baltimore medical col
lege where he was taking a course in
medicine. When interviewed to
night In the central police station
where he is being held, Vaughn re
fused to tell anything of his where
abouts since he left Greenville except
that he spent a week or two in Nor
folk. He appears to take his arrest
coolly and stated that he was com
ing back to Greenville in January
to fight the charges against, him.
Asked who helped him to escape
from jail, Vaughn stated "Lots of
friends in Greenville," who would be
willing to spend a lot of money and
time to free him of the charges
against him. He asked to be placed
in a cell In the upper room of tho
station house but as the police are
taking no chances of his escaping he
was placed on the lower lloor.
R. B, Allen, when interviewed at
Central Y. M. C. A., of this city to
night said:
"I was walking on Kutaw street
with several friends when 1 noticed1
a man on the opposite side of the
street, who it seemed that I knew.
I walked over and was very much
surprised to see that the man was
Vaughn. I followed him and s'aw
him enter the church. [asked one
of my friends to telephone the po
lice and I entered the church and
watched him until the officers arriv
ed. He was placed under arrest and
as the police were leading him away,
the man turned to tue and stated that
he would get even."
Mr. Allen stated that he telegraph
ed to his father last night to claim
the reward which is offered, and to
night Mr. Allen received a telegram
from his father which stated that
Governor Blease had been toregrapi -
ed and the reward would be paid to
his son. Marshal of Police Farnan
also received a telegram from Sher
iff Poole who stated that he would
leave Greenville tonight for Bal
timore.
Vaughn is willing to return to
South Carolina without extradition j
papers.
Hyman Endel, president of Moun
tain Lodge No. lf> Independent Order
of Odd Fellows of Greenville, who Is
stopping in this city called at the
station house tonight to see Vaughn.
What the conversation was Bndel
refused to say.
