TOO MUCH MONEY. Phladelphia Youngster Takes Cash Leaves.' I New York, Dec. 4.?Arrested here tonight after he had bought a ticket for San Francisco, Elliott Micliner, 15, Philadelphia office boy, told police the story of a week's travel and adventure that followed his disappearance from Baldwin Locomotive Works November 26, with $4,300 of the company's money. Officers found $3,600 of the money in his suit case and the rest he told them he had spent. The $700 that was missing had gone, he admitted, in the purchase of new clothes?suits with long trousers?for $3.00 meals in the best hotels in Philadelphia. New York and Chicago, for $1.00 tips to waiters and for berths in Pullman cars. There were movies and other entertainment He was helping pay off employees in the company's office when he took the money "just drew a couple of years' salary in advance," he toold police. "Who wouldn't?" he asked. "I have been getting $8 a week as an office boy in the Baldwin works. They hand me $4,300. I had to count it, too, you know, and they tell me to take it to the paymaster. It was more money than I ever took before. It looked awful big and it felt big. I had the feel of it rigth in my hand when I sawr an open door. Well, 1 blew. Who wouldn't?" First he went to Camden, N. J., bought clothes there and then came ' to New York. !He intended to go west and "loaf a bit" but he read < in the papers he was believed to have gone to Spokane, where his father was reported to be dying, so he went only as far as Chicago. Life there palled, so he came back to New York and went to Philadelphia. No one ? recognized him there so he returned , to New York last night and decided to chance the west. As he bought his , ticket a detective arrested him. After first telling detectives that he had been visiting friends here and was going to the Pacific coast to see relatives, he later admitted the theft and told his story. He was turned over to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. ^ i m i m> Crop Report.
