FAMOUS MYSTERY UNRAVELED
Theft aud ItcoTerj of $1,600,000 In Bonds
Belonging to a New Yorker.
CRIME RECALLED BY A PECENT DEATH
"Lnynl OMren" .Murphy Never Told, nnd
Ills Employer Would Not To I era ti
ll Reflection on Ills In
tegrity. With the passing of Owen Murphy dies
tho secret of the disappearance of $1,500,-
000 worth ot bonds, relates tho Now York
Herald. Whero they went, how they went,
s)io was Instrumental In their abstraction
nnd who were the ultimate beneficiaries
thcru were bo questions that putzlcd tho
patlco of two continents. No ono ever
nnswerod tthn Queries. No one ever will
answer them. For the man who was the
logical Informant has passed beyond tho
Jurisdiction of earthly Judges, nnd he left
no word of explanation.
Tho secret of this man's life has baftlcd
tho Sherlock Holmes of three decades. Owen
Murphy! Confidential man of affairs to a
tunny times millionaire! In solo poiscsslon
astdo from tho obvious possessions of his
chief of the combination of tho olllco snfol
On one day, a king's ransom In the strong
box!
On tho morrow, nothing! Emptiness,
mocking, sneering, accusing ciniulnofs!
And then the man hunt, sensational, thor
ough and absolutely rcwardlcss! And
through It nil, on tho part of the mini most
to bo affected by a damaging discovery, a
personal' unconcern that was masterly, a
Mirone satisfaction In the stanch support of
his despoiled employer, and Una ly the crown
of confidence which outlived even the tcnuro
of tho loyalist of musters! And the bonds
came back!
Murphy was tho agent and confidential
man ot Huftis L. Lord, when railroad bonds
valued nt M.tOO.OOO were taken from the
Lord safe In n llttlo olllco nt No. 38 Ex
chango plncc. Mr. I.ord and Owen Murphy
were tho only persons supposed to havo ac
cess to tho Rtrong box. Tho bonds disap
peared In n manner ns strango ns most ot
them subsequently found their way back,
Ills IliiipliiyiT'M Conlldi-iice.
Yet through mouths, In which suspicion
was directed In every direction, Huftis L,
Lord would not permit n word of dlAtrunt tn
be uttered In his presence concerning Owcu
Murphy. Bankers, agents, pawnbrokers and
even tho ollco themselves were hauled over
tho coals. Scotland Ynrd and Mulberry
streotH followed clows and theories, yet
whenever any attention wns bestowed upon
Owen Murphy there Intervened Uufus L
Lord, who defied every mnn to even brenlho
suspicion against "tho little Irishman,"
whom ho trusted nnd loved. All tho facts
In that robbery of I860 will probably never
bo known. Itufus Lord, who wns then SO
years old, might havo told more thnn ho
over did. Ho has long been dead.
Cap'nln Young, the head of the detective
bureau, who wns broken at tho wheel of
public opinion, Is dead. Detectlvo Irving,
who nccused the captain nnd was largel)
tho causo of tho upheaval In tho police
department which followed the robbery,
has nlso passed away. "Jack" Rand nnd
half a dor.cn thieves, small nnd great, who
wcro arrested nt tho time, hnvo gone to
meet the Judgo of nil 'mankind. "Dan"
Noble, credited with being nt tho head of
tho plot which resulted In the theft of the
securities, still lives, with protestations of
reform upon his nged lips. "Dutch"
Hctnrtch Is somcwhero on earth, for he,
too, wns concerned In n mystery which
baflled tho Ingenuity of detectives, ntuutour
and professional, In the days following the
civil war.
Thero aro gray-haired men down In Wall
3treet who rcracmbor how Owen Murphy,
tho "llttlo Irishman," In that tlmo of tin
rest and suspicion, held his head high
secure In nn employer's trust. Where the
bonds went nnd, nbovo nil, what course
most of them traveled to get back to tho
safo of Rufus L. Lord, few men ever knew
Developments of these later days have
shown how well tho faith of Itufus L.
Lord In tho "llttlo Irishman" was Justified
Tho death of Owen Murphy sent to hi
reward a good servant, for sixty years a
steward of millions and faithful to the
end.
Owen Murphy was horn In Monaghan
couuty, Ireland, In 1817. Ho enmo to this
country when ho was 22 years old. Ho
was a clerk for a few months In a dry goods
house. Then ho entered tho employ of Mr,
Lord, In 1840, ns a collector of rents, for
Mr. Lord owned most ot tho buildings In
that block, bounded by Broad streot, W1I
Ham street, Exchango "place nnd Denver
street. Thero wero fifteen buildings aud
the several hundred offices brought In n
largo Income. Tho stock exchango then
occupied one of tho structures.
Over this domain of stono nnd brick Owen
Murphy reigned as viceroy. He determined
tho amount of rent to bo paid and ha ad
ministered all tho affairs In connection with
tho profitable estate. Everybody In tho
Wnll street section knew him. Whero tho
Lord's court building now stands thero wa
a place for tho dumping of tho ashes from
tho grates used In tho offlcos. Thero tho
youngsters ot the neighborhood onco wen
to gather cinders and tho pluco was called
"Murphy's alley."
Wherever Owen Murphy wont he had a
hearty greeting for those ho mot, from tho
millionaire brokers aud thero wcro not
many lu thoso days lo tho diminutive
clndor pickers. Ha chased tho small boyi
out of tho building when they becamo un
ruly and then forgot the incident by tho
next tlmo ho and tho youngsters met.
Even In tho days which preceded tho
bank robbery he wns known ob "Loyal
Owen." A man who owned a building I
Wall street sent for him ono day nnd uBkcd
for an export opinion as to what rent h
should demand for a. vacant counting room
"Do you think," replied Owen Murphy
"that I'll give you an opinion of thnt kind
when my employer has rooniB to rent 7 No,
sir, I shall do nothing of tho kind."
Theft of the llonds.
It was In such ways as theso that "Loyal
Owen" won tho confidenco which afterward
withstood so severe n test.
Rufus L. Lord was nearly deaf. He was
In 186S SO years old and Infirm. Ho was
nt his ofllco ovcry day, but tho details o
his business wero attended to by Owen
Murphy.
There went tn tho llttlo odlce ono day I
March, 1866, two well dressed men, who In
quired nbout renting a sulto of rooms. They
returned several times In tho following
few days. They' Interested Mr. Lord In
speculation In hops, for they said they wcro
lu a position to control tho commodity
Theso men were "Dan" Noblo nm

PostofTlco, Now York, N. Y., December 21
The strangers made n rnrrftit study ot tho
position of tho olllco furniture nnd of tho
l.trgu wait safe which contained tho boxes
contplciiously labeled "bonds."
They returned for tho last time on March
1866. While they talked hops with Mr.
Lord nu nccomnllco took two tin botes of
bonds, It Is sr.ld that they went to Central
park, where vhey divided thrlr booty and
then escaped.
Owen Murphy returning to the office In
Exchange place saw that the boxes wero
missing.
"Who hns hern here?" ho naked his em
ployer.
"Two men to Inquire nbout nn ofuce," wns '
tho reply.
They havo dono more than thnt," mild
Mr. Murphy, pointing to the vacant space
In tho safe.
The work of the thieves had hocn com
paratively easy. Tho outer door of the safi
an never locked, because tho lock wns out
f order. There was an Inner compnrtmcnt
only locked nt night. Tho boxes were taken
and openly carried In the streets, perhaps.
The day of safety deposit companies nnd
trust Institutions had not then dawned In
Wall street.
In tho boxes wero stock of the Warren
railroad, United States honi, Now Jersey
railroad sto.'k, Gnlenn and Chicago second
mortgage bonds, Delaware, Iicknwntma &
Western railroad slock, New York & New
Haven railroad stock, Chicago & North
western railroad stock, nnd other vnluablo
ccurltlcs. Tho numbers of tho missing
bonds aud stocks wero published, but this
fact did not teem to prevent somo of them
from being negotiated. About ono-thtrd ot
the papers belonged to Mr. A. L. Horron.
The detective bureau began nt onco to In
vestigate tho conduct nnd habits of Owon
Murphy. Captain Young proposed thnt Mur
phy bo taken to headquarters and thero put
through tho "third degree."
"Ileforcd permit that llttlo Irishman to bo
nccused of this crime." said Mr. Lord, with
warmth, "I'd rather loco every cent of that
which has boon taken. If Owen Murphy
wished to rob ho could hnve dono so Ion?
ago and have taken inoro than Is gone
now."
Thoro wns no third degree."
Thero wore times after that when tho
police persisted In examining tho trustod
