The Print reporter that in th
latter part of November Madame
Arlington came to his shop, gave him
her card, and said she wanted a number
of tables made. From her representa-
tions and lady-like appearance he con-
cluded that he would risk nothing by
trusting her, and so agreed to furnish
the tables and wait for his money until
the first of January. At the time of
her call she told him that she was mar-
ried, and when he subsequently went
to her place on Postoffice street and
saw a man who appeared to be domes-
ticated there, he naturally concluded
that he was her husband. She told
Mr. O’Neil that she was from New
York. She afterwards called at his
shop and had two frames made to be
used for hanging dresses on. At this
time it was noticed that she had what
is commonly called a black eye, and,
referring to it herself, told one of Mr.
O’Neil’s employees that in stooping she
had knocked her head against the door
knob or latch.
Mr. Kauffman, at the corner of Center
and Church streets, was then sought
by the reporter. Mr. Kauffman was
not in, but one of his clerks told the
reporter all he knew of the affair. He
said that some three weeks ago Madame
Arlington came to the store, and, after
introducing herself, stated that she
wished to purchase some furniture.
Mr. Kauffman expressed his willingness
to sell, but not on the terms proposed
—credit. He finally agreed to rent her
some furniture and crockery, for which
she paid one month in advance. On
Saturday last she called again and
ordered two lapboards to be sent her
on Monday, when she would pay for
them. Yesterday morning they were
sent, when it was learned that the lady
had decamped. Mr. Kauffman at once
took possession of his furniture and
took it back to his store.
The police station was then visited,
where it was learned that a colored wo-
man by the name of Holmes, residing'
on Tenth and Postoffice streets, had
sworn out an affidavit against Madame
Arlington, charging her with embezzle-
ment. It seems that this woman had
given Madame Arlington some goods to
make up for her, and on learning of the
departure of that lady she made the
above charge. The zeporter noticed at
Madame Arlington’s establishment a
dress partially finished, which is prob-
ably the work given her by the colored
woman. It was also learned that the
defaulting dressmaker was to leave the
city on Sunday afternoon by the Gai-
Mrs. Scanlan’s, the father of it being a
very light-colored mulatto, who also
lives in Houston. This child may be
the one who has been living with
Madame Arlington. This thought is
merely a supposition, based on the
fact that there was a child
living with her, and whose mother
she claimed to be. She was seen leav-
ing the city with a child, and the in-
TEe Sweetest im the World,

Madame Marion Arlington Skips the
Town—The Infallible Dress-Making'
System a Failure—How a Smooth
Tongue and Winning Ways
Took in Divers People.
Some three or four weeks since a
young woman, pretty and engaging,
in appearance and manners a perfect
lady, came to Galveston and gave out
the information that she was about to
open a dressmaking establishment that
would eclipse any other institution of a
similar kind in the city, both as regards
prices and workmanship. Advertise-
ments were inserted in the principal
newspapers in the city, and circulars
distributed announcing that Madame
Marian Arlington, a modiste of superla-
tive skill, had opened an establishment
for the manufacture of ladies’ wear at
128 and 130 Postoffice street. Work-
women were advertised for, and large
salaries promised. Galveston had never
before seen such an institution upon so
grand a scale. The building in which
Madame Arlington established herself
is known as the old trunk factory, and
is the property of Dir. Burroughs.
Learning this morning that Madame
Arlington had disappeared a Print re-
porter started out to learn something in
regard to her abrupt manner of leaving.
Calling at 128 Postoffice street, the
place was found to be closed, but find-
ing a side door the reporter entered,
and was fortunate enough to find Mr.
Burroughs. That gentleman stated
that during the latter part of Novem-
ber Madame Arlington called upon him
and made arrangements to rent the
above numbered building. The rent
was to be paid at the end of each month.
Yesterday morning he learned that she
had left town. He heard then for the
first time that there had been a man
living in the house. When she first
came to him she introduced herself as
a widow from Albany, New York.
Mr. Burroughs gives it as his opinion
that she was in the hands of this man,
who compelled her to get up this
swindling scheme; that, although he
had never seen the man, he understood
that he did not treat her well. Whether
he was her husband or not he could not
say.
Mr. J. Lee Burton was then visited.
He informed the scribe that in the
latter part of the past month Madame
Arlington came to his shop, and, intro-
ducing herself, told him that she
wanted some partitions put up in the
building she had rented for a
dressmaking establishment. He ac-
cordingly sept workmen to the
house and the work was begun. She
then told him that she would have to
ask him to wait until the 1st of Janu-
ary for his money, and in such a per-
suasive manner did she talk that he
was induced to trust her.
After the partitions were finished she
again called at his shop and told him
that she wasted several tables made.
These tables were to be ten in number,
two large and eight small ones.
She further informed him that the
two large tables were to be used for
cutting, with one workwoman at each,
and the small ones as sewing tables,
with a subforeman and six sewing girls
at each.
Mr. Burton said that his suspicions
were then aroused for the first time.
He could not understand how Galves-
ton could support a dress-making estab-
lishment that employed fifty-eight wo-
men, when there were so many scattered
throughout the city, and declined to
do the work, telling the lady that, he
could do no more work for her unless
she paid him cash or gave him a good
reference. He then thought no more
of the matter until yesterday, when he
heard that she had left the city. He
at once went to her establishment with
the intention of taking down the par-
titions he had put up. He there found
a negro girl who had been employed in
the place as a servant. The girl was
very much excited, alleging that she
had been swindled out of her money,
for which she had given her services.
She then told Mr. Burton that the man
who had been living in the house had
treated Madame Arlington very badly,
and on Saturday last had beaten her
brutally; and here it may be remarked
that this was probably not the first
time that he had so beaten her, as sev-
eral days ago it was noticed by several
persons that the lady’s face was bruised
in such a manner as to cause the suppo-
sition that she had been struck in the
eye. The girl also stated that there
were several ladies who had been em-
ployed there who, as far as she knew,
had never obtained a cent. So far
from there being fifty-eight employes,
there were only five or six, and from
the manner in which Mrs. Arlington
acted, the supposition is that she did
not want any more, for when any one
applied for a situation, in answer to
the advertisement, if met by the lady
herself, were told to call in again when
her brother was in, and if the man,
were told to call when Madame Arling-
ton was in. This itself is very-sus-
picious.
The reporter then wended his way to
