WELL KNOWN CROOKS

Fed Paper to Machine and Took Out Real MoneySwindle Is Charged. New York, Nov. 25. Three Austrians, who the secret service men say are well known International crooks, and one of whom they credit with being the most expert yeggman now In this country, were arrested last night by secret service men and Brooklyn headquarters detectives Jn Charles Staruss's saloon, known . as

the Canteen, at 128 Flushing avenue, j prlsor.ment. while a penalty 6f $10 or Brooklyn, opoBite the navy yard. The J a fortnlght'a imprisonment' was imcharge against the prisoners Is at-j posed on the other five. ,They were

tempting to swindle one of the secret service men, who was acting as a comeon. out of $900 "by the ancient device of the magic machine which turns out money by means of plates which a convenient- friend in the bureau of printing and engraving at Washington passes out now and then. Secret Serviceman Kllnck. the comeon, had the men In a back room of the saloon dickering over the amount he should Invest. At a signal three other secret service men and six city detectives broke into the locked room and covered the trio with revolvers. Tho prisoners were taken to Brooklyn police headquarters and quizzed and late last night the police said that one of them had confessed. The prisoners are Solomon Stromlaufer, 40 years old, of 108 Ammerman avenue, Arverne, who says he runs a hotel at Rockaway Beach In the summer; Samuel Dresler, 46 years old, of 153 Chauncey street, Brooklyn, who is the one the detectives say is the expert cracksman, and Boris Dadolsky, alias Benjamin Green, alias Boris Brodsky, 40 years old, who says he lives at 156 Boerum street. Williamsburg. Acting Captain Coughlin - of the Brooklyn detective bureau says that he believes the three men have cleared up $100,000 by the same game in the last year. All of them, he says, are well to do, Podolsky In particular owning at least five or sis parcels of real estate In Brooklyn. The secret service men have been trailing the three prisoners for two weeks. On Thursday Kllnck managed to get an Introduction to one of them and had them meet him at an office in Montague street, where he posed as a real estate man. They unfolded the plan by which they got the mythical plates from the mythical friend In Washington and showed him how the machine worked by running a strip of white paper through the motor driven rolers and nulling a perfectly good ten spot out of a false bottomed drawer in the bottom of the machine. They even made " f.fties, tore one up and threw it - v ptd rave the other, also a per- " c-d legal tender bill, to Klinck - r--t rrd see If It didn't pass all t. Then he made the date for last "Tht. at which time the machine was - be brought and the three men later f.rrested and one other were , to be rresent. The fourth man and the machine did not show up. . An extra charge was made against the prisoners of violating a federal statute regarding the mutilation of money, as they bad split bills in their possession and also an actionable printing of what appeared to be a bank bote on a piece of linen. Stromlaufer wore about $1,500 worth of Jewelry when arrested. Dresler, the secret service men say, was a government detective of some, sort in Austria at one time. He was particularly apt as an expert on yeggmen and their methods. When he got in bad with the police there, they say, he turned to the other ltne of work, with which he was most familiar. Padolsky, the detectives say, is a fugitive from Justice, being wanted for a robbery in East New York on Oct. 5, 1909. Nine months ago, the police say,. Dresler took a butter and egg merchant to Washington on the latter's demand to see the dies passed at the Bureau of Printing and Engraving and framed up a stall that induced the merchant to invest $10,000 in the scheme. The proposition made - to Kllnck was to sell him $10,000 worth of the money as a starter for $900. City Statistics Marriage License.

Amrlcan News Service) , London, Nov. 25. While three hundred suffragettes jeered and hooted without the building and battled with the police to rush in'and release their comrades, fifteen of the more militant

i members of the organization seeking votes for women, were fined In the Bow street .police eourt yesterday. Hoots and jeers met each decision of the magistrate, Sir Alfred de Reutson, and each of the wpmen fined declared that she would acceDt the alternative ... ... . ,. 1 of imprisonment rather than pay the I fine. I Ten were fined $25 or a month's i re charged with breaking the windows of cabinet ministers houses and all pleaded guilty when arraigned. While their companions were fighting with the police, they were attacked by hoodlums from the slums and several women were badly hurt. The roughs attack was so fierce that the police for a time had to turn their attention to the ruffians and beat them off before they succeeded in repelling the suffragettes. The condition of Augustine Birrell, chief secretary for Ireland, was reported considerably improved, though he was still suffering from, the blows inflicted upon him by a' mob of the suffragettec. . STUBBS 111 ATTACK Kansas Governor Is Radical in His Rate Views. San Antonio, Texas, Nov. 23. Railroads and illegal combines were given sharp raps in resolutions introduced by Governor Stubbs of Kansas and unanimously adopted by the transMississippi commercial congress. One set of resolutions urges the National congress to enact legislation providing for the valuation of railroads in detail. These resolution i conclude: "Ittis the fire conviction of this convention that the railroads of the transMississippi country are, on " present rates, earning a fair return on any reasonable and fair basis of valuation. A second set calls upon .the National congress to amend the Sherman antitrust law, making It mandatory and providing imprisonment for all violations.' , Another resolution urges congress to enact a law to regulate the issuance of stocks" and bonds of interstate railroads without intrenching upon the right of states to regulate their corporate and domestic affairs. Still another set of - lesolutions is worded thus: ' "That we urge upon the interstate commerce commission that it correct these abuses by prescribing rates to the giUf ports which, with due regard to cost of service and distance., are reasonable, and which are not based on rates to and through these so-called gateways plus the rates back over the same line and thence to the gulf." Addresses were made by S. H. Cowan of Fort Worth, attorney for the Texas Cattle Raisers' association, and George J. Kendel of Denver. Klamath Falls, Ore., and Lincoln. rK :,,. .vJ Neb., are strong candidates for the next convention. W. J. Bryan made a strong plea for the selection of the latter city. , GOV.-ELECT TENER SAID TO OWN DOVES Boston. Nov. 23. Sporting circles

Ft. Wayne, Ind., Nov. 25. Former Congressman Clarence C. Gilhams of Lagrange, has gone to Washington to complete the arrangements necessary for tho collection of $75,000 from the United States government for an old eetate in Lagrange county. It is expected that he will be successful. Ten or 12 years ago there died in Lagrange county an eccentric character named J. Calvin Kinney. He was a man of wealth, and during the closing years of his life he turned, nearly

all his property into government j bends. When an administrator was appointed for tho estate. It was impos-, t.stitut j I ed the old man's wealth, though it was 1 Known tnat ne possessed at least sivw,- j 000 in these securities. . Body Taken From Grave. In exploring the attic of the home a small tin can, badly rusted, wac found. It contained more than a score of coupons which Mr. Kinney had cut from tho bonds, showing that he had not collected even the interest. Fragmentary records about the plaqe gave the numbers of certain bends held by the old man, and it was ascertained that they had never been redeemed by the government. Heirs in the south became suspicious and alleged that the old man's wealth had been buried with him. They obtained an order of court and the body of the dead man was taken up and a very thorough search made of the grave and the clothing which enveloped the body. Nothing was found. Bonds Probably Buried. Little by little, however, evidence showing the ownership of bonds by Kinney was collected by the administrator, and the government, was appealed to on behalf of the heirs. They were able to satisfy the government authorities of the possession of $75,000 worth of the bonds, and during the congressional term of Mr. Gilhams he Introduced a bill to reimburse the heirs. This bill was finally carried through by Congressman Cyrus Cline, and under its terms the secretary of the treasury is empowered to reim- ; burse the Kinney estate to- the extent of $75,000 when a surety bond of $13a,000 is given the government to indemnify it against loss In the event this missing bonds eventually come to light. This has been done and the heirs will probably receive the money. What actually became of the Kinney bonds is a mystery, but the most generally accepted belief s that the aged man buried them in some out-of-the-way place on his farm and. that in all probability they will never be found. GOOD NEWSJOR HYDE Mystery of Where He Secured Cyanide Is Cleared. Helena, Mont, Nov. 25. If Dr. B. C. Hyde gets a new trial it will probably be because Joe Edgerton, a prominent Helena mining man and member of the last legislative assembly, saw Hyde's name in the directory of the Phil Gamma Delta fraternity. Mr. Edgerton has told the story of how he sent Hyde a box of cyanide estimated at two pound's, and how, over 17 years later, he came to let Hyde's attorney j know of this fact. , "& 1 , , v " of great Importance to Hyde, in view of the fact that the Tatter during his trial could not explain to the satisfaction of the jury where he had procured cyanide which he admitted he had been using for many years. Edgerton, In his statement, says: "In April or May, 1893, after having lost my health in Montana, I was on a 1 crowaea irain neiween cnerryvaie ana aout my illness, and from that we JSOt to talking aDout cyanme.

I filled a chalk box with cyanide and mailed it to Hyde. I wrote him a note on the letter head of ! a banking house explaining that I had "Desiring to avoid publicity, I could not make up my mind to let Hyde know that I recalled the incident. "About six ..weeks ago, while examining a college fraternity directory. I found the name of the Kansas City doctor, and then it was that I wrote to him in care of his attorney and recalled the Incident of having sent him the cyanide 17 years ago." Hyde is under a life sentence at Kansas City for the murder of CoL Thomas H. Swope, a millionaire, by 1 slow poison. Hyde's wife was a niece ' of Swope.

(American News Service) San Antonio, Texas, Nov. 25. Gov. W. R. Stubbs of Kansas, who is one of the prominent figures at the TransMississippi Commercial congress in session here, tells an interesting story of his first Inspiration for law enforcement. The executive, who has become a national figure since taking office, because of his enforcement of the laws in Kansas says that the quick, effective work of the gun-carrying Texas Ranger, in the suppression of the "bad man led him to apply that principle to his public life. "I was building a railway, from Twist, Texas, to the Canadian river, about 70 miles, in 1901 and 1902" said the governor. "It was during the time the Rock Island was building over to El Paso. The

life was rough, smacking very much of the frontier times, and the thing that impressed me most was the splendid enforcement of the law by the Rangers. Our camps were filled with boot-leggers, bad men, and gamblers. At times, they gave us so much trouble, we had to appeal to the law. The effective work of the Rangers in cleaning them out made such an impression of vigorous enforcement that I will never forget it, and I have .been trying to do the same thing in Kansas in the enforcement of the laws on the state statute books. I admire the Texas people, because they mean what they say, and they do what they promise. You people enforce your corporation laws here in a way that it would well behoove the United States to do. Why, if the laws on the statute books were enforced in Texas, we would never hear of the railroads of the country combining to raise the freight rates by $400,000,000. We would have them tied up in short order: "This Is an executive duty. It is the enforcement of a criminal statute under our Sherman anti-trust law which prohibits the railroads from combining in restraint of trade. The states have control only of matters in the limits of the states. Therefore, this is distinctly up to federal government. . "Mr. Roosevelt is as popular in the west as he ever was. The west is all insurgent, because the west is progressive. The power of that man lies in his sincerity,, and his earnestness. When all the trusts, the combines, the monopolies, the railroads, and the combined power of wealth in this country undertake to destroy a man, it is time for the common people to ask why they .are against Roosevelt. Certainly, he is not for the trusts, he must be, for the people. "I think Theodore Roosevelt is the livest corpse in the world, and he will not be in Bryan's class until he is beaten three times as candidate for president, with a chance to run another time if he wants to. It is foolish to say the last election was a slap at Roosevelt. The Democrats would have had one hundred and fifty thousand majority, of Cleveland's majority, close to two hundred thousand, instead of fifty-five thousand if Roosevelt had. kept out of the field." OFFICER-ELECT TO BANQUET VOTERS Newcastle, Ind., Nov. 25. George W. Williams of Knightstown, a Republican, who, at the recent election, was elected representative from Henry county, will on Friday ' night, keep his pledge to the voters of Jefferson township and give them au oyster supper at Sulphur Springs. CRIMINAL LAWYER COMMITS SUICIDE (American News Service) Toledo, Ohio, Nov. 25. John A, Dunn, one of the most prominent criminal lawyers of northwestern Ohio, committed suicide at his home here on Thursday by drinkfng carbolic acid. SHREDDER PULLS FLESH FROM BODY Stanford, Ky., Nov. 25. Sam Matheny, one of the best . known young farmers of this county, was probably fatally injured while cutting fodder near here. Matheny passed by the cog-wheels of the cutting box w-hich was propelled by a powerful engine, and the wind blew his coat into the wheels. In a second his body came in contact with the machinery and every particle of flesh on his right side from the hip to the shoulder was 'stripped to the bone. His shoulder was crushed in three places, his head and cheek were cat and bruised in a frightful manner and bis arm was broken and lacerated in many places. When the unfortunate man was snatched Into the cogs he threw his arm upward and this act probably saved that member from being completely ground off. He was liberated from his perilous position as soon as the engine could be stopped. He almost bled to death before medical aid could be given. 'His condition is critical.

SALE OF BAD Oh PLOMAS IS. PROBED New York, Nov. 25. Grand jury proceedings have disclosed the sale of 20 spurious diplomas of graduation which purport to have been issued by the College of the City of New York. They had been uttered since last July, and brought about $30 apiece. It is thought they are in the hands of medical, dentistry and law students, who needed them to present in lieu of regent's certificates. :'x ,: The fraud was discovered when one of the counterfeit diplomas was sent to the office of the secretary of state at Albany to be registered. The in strument was without date, and waa sent back to the city college, where no record of the graduation of the person named could ; be found.
