He further said that if Engelbert had carried on what was his systematic robbery, with more secrecy, it would have been a hard matter for the inspectors of the government to catch him. The secret passageways in the new federal building contributed to the downfall of Engelbert, owing to the fact that Inspector Burr could easily follow Engelbert's movements with out detection.

THINKS HE IS PURSUED CLAIMED THAT HIS FATHERLAND ODD FELLOWS FROM BEDFORD, MASS., WERE AFTER HIM WHEREVER HE WENT. don't know dat I am crazy, boss. ut I ate a piece of mince p!f once, and I have never been what you would call right, ever since," stated Albert Moore, a colored man, who walked into police headquarters yesterday and whose actions brought forth a question from Sergeant McManus and elicited the answer given above. Shortly after the man had stated that mince pie was his downfall, he asked Supt. Bailey for a piece of paper, stating that he wanted to write a letter. Bailey gave him what was wanted, and after the gentleman of color had written for several minutes he asked the genial chief to sign the article, stating that he had to have a signed statement from the chief of Volice, that he had stopped in Richmond. He told the chief that his father, and who, by the way, is an Odd Fellow, had a grudge against him, and he and the Odd Fellows were pursuing him over the country. When closely questioned the man stated that he had run away from his persecutors at Bedford, Mass., going directly to Indianapolis, where he was "spotted" by his enemies, who tried to kill him. It was seen immediately that the man was decidedly "off his noodle," as one of the policemen expressed it, and the police made a search of his person. The first thing that attracted their attention was a large thirtyeight calibre revolver, which would have put Jesse James to shame, while in another pocket the will of the man's father was found. He also carried with him about $24 in cash.
