A BOGUS CHECK.
Is Passed on Mr. Herzfeld, the Furniture Deal
er, by a Young Man Giving His Name
as Fred Mason.
A young man giving his name as Fred
Mason called at H. Herzfield's furniture
Store on Nineteenth street yesterday
morning and bought about $7 worth of
furniture. Completing his purchase, he
ordered the goods sent to him at Avon
dale, stating that he worked with the
Smith Oln oompany. In payment for the
goods he gave a check for $17 on the
Berney National bank, this city, signed
by Mr. Arthur Smith of the above named
company, and was given $8 In change.
Having seen the young man often on the
Street Mr. Herzfeld did not question the
validity of the check and sent the goods
as directed.
When the porter called at the Smith
Gin works he was Informed that no such
man as Fred Mason was employed by
the company. He returned with the
f;oods and so notified Mr. Herzfltjld. An
nvestigatlon revealed the fact that the
check was forged, Mr. Smith stating
that he did not Issue the check nor did
not know Fred Mason.
The officers are on the lookout for the
forger and Mr. Herzfeld says that he
will have no trouble In Identifying him.
That while he does not know hls name
he has seen him often on the street and
In his store.
It was a very clever scheme ami Mr.
Herzfeld Is minus $8, but he says It Is a
lesson he will not forget soon, nor will
the culprit IT he can bring him to Jus
tice. _

HOLMES FOUND GUiLTY
Only One Ballot Was Taken by
the Jury.
MOTION FOR A NEW TRIAL
The Verdict Was Received by the Crowd in
Absolute Silence—The Prisoner
Seemed Stunned.
Philadelphia, Nov. 2.—H. H. Hplmes
was tonight convicted of murder in the
first degree for killing Benjamin F. Plet
zel In this city on September 2, 1884. The
Jury needed but one ballot to reach the
decision. The Jury retired at 5:45 o’clock
at the conclusion of Judge Arnold’s
charge. After the retirement of the Jury
front the court room the spectators
streamed out Into the corridors and ea
gerly discussed what the verdict would
probably be. There was a considerable
difference of opinion, as many believed
the commonwealth had not thoroughly
established Its case against Holmes, but
the majority were inclined to believe that
the Jury would convict him. At 8:35 word
was sent to Judge Arnold that the Jury
was ready to return the verdict. When
Judge Arnold entered the room there
were nearly as many present as had at
tended the day session. The prisoner was
brought and placed in the dock. The
Jury came in and took their places and
it needed but little skill as a mind reader
to know what the word of the foreman
would be. The court ordered Holmes to
arise and to the question of the court the
foreman of the Jury then pronounced the
fatal words, "Guilty of murder in the
first degree."
The verdict was greeted with absolute
silence. The charge of the Judge must
have foreshadowed what his fate was to
be, but the word "guilty" fell upon
Holmes with stunning force. He made
no outcry, nor exhibited any motion of
any kind—the blow was too stunning for
noisy outbreaks. He sat down, and
while the Jury was polled each man an
swered to his name, and as each pro
nounced his sentence Holmes stared va
cantly before him. His face was that of
a corpse. It was as absolutely expres
sionless as a mask. Only a nervous
twitching of the eye lids and the contrac
tion and dilation of the eyes showed that
there was a living, breathing man sit
ting in the dock.
After the first blow began to die away
Holmes slowly recovered. He realized
that his counsel was making a motion
for a new trial. He ran Ids tongue across
his underllp, moistening the dryness, ani
claiming his hands together, leaned for
ward to listen to the Judge's decision.
When Judge Arnold said that he would
hear the application for a new trial on
Monday, November 14, an expression of
something like hope broke across his dull
face. Turning to the court officers he
said in an eager whisper: "November,
Monday 14.” These were the only words
he uttered. Judge Arnold then expressed
to Mr. Rotan and Mr. Shoemaker his ap
preciation of h6w difficult their task had
been, and he complimented them that
they had been able to make as good a
showing as thy did. He Intimated that
their withdrawal from the case was a de
vice of the prisoner.' In an honest, manly
way, Mr. Rotan gave the court to under
stand that their withdrawal was no de
vice of their own, but was done from a
sincere conviction because they believed
they had not been given time to prepare
their case. Judge Arnold then ordered
the prisoner removed. By this time
Holmes had recovered much of his com
posure and he walked from the room
with the quick, springy step that is nat
ural to him. The Judge thanked the
Jury and discharged them, and so ended'
the trial of the most notorious and in
famous murderer that has ever been con
victed In the courts of Philadelphia, and
probably in the United States.
If ever the value of a good name would
have been a shield and buckler to a man;
In his hour of peril that man is Holmes.
If ever man's black deeds rose up to con
front and convict him, that man is
Holmes. If Holmes had only been In the>
dock for the murder of Pletzel, It Is an’
open question if the prosecution would
not have failed of conviction, but un
questionably his bloody records served
to condemn him. The Jury was never in
doubt. When they retired from the court
room they took their supper, then a brief
discussion took place. One ballot was
taken and every man voted to convict.
They consumed three hours for their re
tirement from the court room, but they
could have round a verdict in fifteen min
utes, if they had so wished to do.
