He is employed as a messs.ni- r by Halley-Stelglltr Co . of 30 Broad street, and the amazing thing about his crime ia that, alihough he stooped to forgery, he claimed that he did it for the sole purpose of demonstrating to the world how easy it is, under existing conditions, for any man of ordinary intelligence to rob Wall street at will. I . nard i i:iplautlo. This explanation of ihe boldest crime that has stirred the financial world In years would be ridiculous If the young man was not fortified In his claims by two convincing facts. The first and most important is that the very day he

"Why," he said. Just before being, taken to the Tombs police court, "If you would see the way those loan clerks hand out hundreds of thousands of dollars In securities, thousands in cash and
s limited amount ln checks, to mere boys on the slightest evidence that they are al! tight. It would take your breath SWSJ. I have seen it done In every back in the city, snd often wondered why some of these big crooks never tumbled to the simplicity of It.

"I made no attempt at clear forgery and if I made a good signature of Certification Cierk Byrnes of the Hanovfi It was more chance than anything al S I was careless SSCtVsSt I knew that the thins was going to be very easy," said young Ixniard. Leonard told the police that he conceived the idea of the theft some three or four mon'hs ago and had been planning during that time to execute It and
show how easy such a scheme could be prai tlced on the banks of New York. On September 26 he said he found four blank checks on the Hanover national lank Later, on the same day. he said, he was in the orridor of the National City bank and among th" men waiting in line he saw a man holding in his hand an cnvIot marked 300,000, 44 Per cent., on the envelope. He said ho heard the loan clerk tell the messenger than the Interest was 4'', and not 4V Then, he said, the messen cer departed. Iroinir.l Had Ilia toe. Leonard then had his cue and went tc

After he secured the stamp he filled out the body of the check drawn on the Hanover national bank Then, he aid. he went to Wall street and hailed a passing boy and asked him If he knew where the National City bank was. The boy said he did not. Ieonard said he told him. "Take this Check to No f.2 Wall street and hand It to the loan clerk." Leonard meanwhile stood opposite the customhouse and saw the boy take the package and come out with the securities. He had
