Prisoner Grows Bitter
Stadtmuller's Bail Is Re?
duced From $100,000
to $25,000 by Court
Samuel Untermyer in all probability
will call the bluff of Robert P. Brindell
and compel the erstwhil? labor czar to
Pjoducc his "little black book," which
ls alleged to contain matter that would
seriously implicate persons high in po?
litical and public life. Brindell of late
has been threatening to produce this
book.
It was learned yesterday that Mr.
Untermyer intends to put Brindell on
trial for each of the half dozen indict?
ments that are outstanding against
him unless Brindell complotes his
threat and producesthe book. lf found
iruilty on all of these indictments
Brindell. who is now serving a term of
five years in Sing Sing, would be liable
to a further possible total of thirty
years' imprisonment.
Brindell is said to be weakening
under the strain of his imprisonment
and he is quoted as having said:
"AM that Untermyer wants of me is
that little bl'ack book in which I kerjt
the record of my donations. If he gets
that a lot of birds will go. And he'll
pet it if they try to throw me into the
pile. I won't be no goat."
Brindell's Anger Grows
Mr. Untermyer is now in bed and
consequently is not able to proceed at
once with his plans of prosecution.
Friends in his confidence, however, say
that he intends to begin his program
against Brindell when the latter comes
up for trial with Peter Stadtmuller on
charges of cocrcion and extortion on
May 9.
The extent of Brindell's anger at hia
present predicament was emphasized,
according to his one-time associates,
by his action in withdfawing the col?
lateral he had deposited with the
surety company for the $100,000 bail
bond, issued in favor of his one-time
lieutenant, Peter Stadtmuller.
Stadtmuller declared that Brindell
had threatened to do this unless he
pleaded guilty to the charges against
him and thus modified tne possibili
ties of thc. action against them both.
Stadtmuller refused point blank to do
this, deciaring he was innocent of the
charges against him. His bail bond
was withdrawn.
It is said that among the high per
sonages alleged to be entered in Brin?
dell's "little black book" is a public
official known to have been close to
Brindell while he was at the zenith of
his power as president of the Building
Trades Council. It was to this man, ac?
cording to the report, that Brindell
looked for the politcal pull that he ex?
pected would save him from Sing Sing. i
This official did not at any time go j
to the Tombs to visit Brindell while I
he was incarcerated there, and appar?
ently turned his back completely upon
the labor boss. This attitude is re?
ported to have made Brindell extreme
ly bitter, and is said to be the real
reason why the convicted labor leader
mrifle the threat to reveal the contents
of his book to Samuel Untermyer, his
prosecutor.
Stadtmuller's Bail Reduced
Supreme Court Justice Edward J.
Gavegan yesterday reduced the bail of
Peter Stadtmuller, labor delegate, who
was iointly indicted with Robert P.
Brindell, from $190,000 to $25,000.
Stadtmuller is now In the Tombs as a
result of the cancellation of his bail
bond by Brindell.
, He , was brought before Justice
Gavegan upon a writ of habeas corpus
obtained by his counsel, Thomas J.
O'Neill. The latter informed the court
that Stadtmuller waa a married man
with two children and had no desire
to leave^the jurisdiction of the court.
Counsel said that the present bail of
$100,000 which had been set by Judge
Mulqueen in General Sessions was ex
cessive and prohibitive, and asked that
the amount be set at $10,000.
Assistant District Attorney Robert
L. Johnstone objected, on the ground
that the justice had no jurisdiction, in
his opinion, to fix the amount of bail
in hnbeas corpus proceedings.
Justice Gavegan said be had been in
conference with Justice John V. Mc
Avoy, before whom Brindell was con?
victed, and that Justffce McAvoy was of
the Same opinion as himself that the
bail of $100,000 was excessive. He then
Bet bail at $25,000.

Al Smith Testiiies
For Dr. Lazarus in
Grand Larceny Case
Physician, Accused of Selling
Influence for $5,000, Had
No Hand in Clemency to
Firebug,Ex-GovernorSays
Former Governor Alfred E. Smith
denied yesterday in General Sessions at
the trial of Dr. Bernard Lazarus,
charged with grand larceny, that the>
defendant had been lnstrumental in
securing a commutation of sentence
for Jacob Smith, convicted of arson in
Cato, N. Y.
Lazarus, with Morris I. Rosenberg,
an insurance agent, of 154 Nassau
Street, was indicted September 28,
1920, on a charge of obtaining $5,000
from Mrs. Jacob Smith on the repre
sentation that Lazarus was former
Governor Smith's personal physician
and could obtain a commutation of her
husband's sentence for that amount.
Tho former Governor denied that he
and Lazarus were boyhod playmates or
that he knew Lazarus and had ad- I
dressed him familinrly in several let
ters. He said that Lazarus had spoken
to lrm about the Smith case, but that
when he decided to comMute Smith's
sentence it was at the soiicitation of
officials of Auburn, where the convicted
man was lodged.'and on the recom
mendation of one of the judges of the
Appellr.to Court.
When he learned from Charles Sten
berg, of Union Hill, N. J., Mrs. Smith's I
attorney, that money had been passed !
he asked the Board of Parole to with-|
hold action on his recommendation of |
commutation, with the result that j
Smith is still in prison.
When the prosecution had rested,
Samuel Siegel, attorney for Lazarus,
made a motion that Judge Nott direct
the jury to acquit his client on the
ground that a case of grand larceny
had not been proved, and that if a
crime had been committed it was com
mitted in Albany County. Judge Nott j
reserved decision until Monday, at i
which time the case will be resumed.
The first witness yesterday was Mr3.!
Jacob Smith, who testified that she
paid Rosenberg and Lazarus the money
in Albany and that she had been satis
fied with the latter's efforts to get her
husband a commutation. Rosenberg
will be tried separately.

When three-year-old Robert Moore

Bedtime Stories
Two Foolish-Feeling Little Bears
By Thornton W. Burgess
Who lets his temper get away
Is bound to find it doesn't pay.
?Mrs. Bear.
If ever there were two foolish-fecl
ing little Bears, the twins of Buster
Bear were those two. And they looked
just as foolish as they felt. While
they had been fighting Peter Rabbit
had made the most of his chance and
the best use of his legs and had dis?
appeared. Where he had gone neither
Boxer nor Woof-Woof had the least
idea.
They looked this way. They looked
that way. They peered under the
pile of brush. They even tore it all
apart. There was no sign of Pe'ter.
As a matter of fact, Peter was far
away, headed straight for the dear
Old Briar-patch. And Peter was
chuckling. The instant those cubs
began to fight all fear had left Peter.
He knew then that ho had nothing
more to fear from them.
"People who lose their tempers
lose their wits with them," chuckled
Peter. "I couldn't have dono that
better if I had planned it. My, how
those cubs have grown! I think I'll
keep away from that part of the
Greon Forest. Yes, sir, I'll keep
away from there." And in that de
cTsion Peter showed that he wasn't
yet too old to learn a lesson and gain
wisdom therefrom.
At last the twins gave up looking
for Peter "I?I?I hope I didn't
hurt you, said Boxer meeklv, as he
saw Woof-Woof rub her nos'e again.
"I didn't mean to."
"Yes, you did," retorted Woof
Woof. "You did mean to hurt mo.
I know, becauso I know you felt just
as I did, and I meant to hurt you
I?I?I hope I didn't."
"Not much," replied Boxer sheep
lshly, as he felt of one ear. "I guess
we are even. That fellow wo didn't
catch probably is laughing at us and
will tell everybody hc meets what
silly little Beurs we are. I guess it
doesn't pay to fight."
"That depends," said a deep,
grumbly, rumbly. voice. The twins
turned to find Mother Bear looking
at them. "It never pays to fight ex
cepting for your rights, but tho one
who wili not fight for his rights
nevB* will ret far ln the Great World.
Neithet wiU the one who is always

ready to fight over nothing. Now,
what have you been fighting about?"
*eclmg more and more foolish
every minute, the twins told Mother
Bear all about Peter Rabbit and how
they had tried to catch him and how
they had lost their tempers when
they bumped into each other.
Mother Bear'a eyes twinkled, but
she took care that the twins should
r.ot see that tw-inkle. "You ought
to be spanked, both of you," said ahe
sternly, "and the next time I know
of your fighting you will be spanked.
1 wont spank you this time be?

leople who lose their tempera usu?
ally lose more, just as you loat your
chance to catch Peter Rabbit. Now
the Green Forest will laugh at you
and Peter Rabbit will boast that he
waa smarter than two Bears."
"We'll get even with him yet," mut
tered Boxer.
"No, you won't," declared Mother
Bear. "Peter Rabbit will never give
you a chance."
And this is exactly what Peter
Rabbit had resolved himself.

Powerful Bomb and
Five Men Seized in
Fight at Paterson
Machine Made in 3 Parts,
Each Containing 5 Sticks of
Dynamite; Could Have De?
stroyed Whole City Block
PATERSON. N. J? April 15.?A bomb
containing enough dynamite to have
destroyed a city block was seired by tho
police'nfter a fight with four men dur?
ing a raid hero late last night on .the
home of Ruggiero Meola, 157 Third
Avenue.
The men taken are Ruggiero Meola,
his son, James Meola, both living at 65
Highland Street; John Verrone, of 65
Hlghland Street; Ehner McKay, negro,
of 29 Washington Street, and Frank
Convery, of Arcola.
The police say tho bomb was intend
ed to destroy the home of Mariano de
Grado, general manager of the Union
Piece Dyeing Company, of 237 East
Sixteonth Street. Information was
given Lieutenant Joseph Moseley, of
the Detective Bureau, a month ago,
that plans were being laid for the de
struction of tho De Grado home, and
detectives detailed on thc case have
been following its developments since
that time.
Last night word was received by
Lieutenant Moseley that an attempt
would bo made to explode a bomb dur?
ing the night. T*ho lieutenant and
five detectives secretcd themselves
around the De Grado house, Lieutenant
Moseley'a assistants being Detective
Sergeant John Murphy and Detectives
Close, Pirolo, Alber and Stengel.
The police say that Ruggiero Meola
emerged from the cellar of the De !
Grado home and was captured without
a struggle, but the four other men
made a brief fight when cornered in the
cellar. The bomb, which had been car
ried in a pail, was equipped with wires
and electric batteries with fulminating
caps.
The bomb is one of the most power?
ful ever taken by the Polico Depart?
ment. lt was made in three sections
of five sticks of dynamite each. A per
cussion cap was set in each group of
sticks. ^ The sections were connected
by a wire and there was a sparking de
vice, apparently as a precaution against
failure of the caps. A hundred feet of
wire was attached to the bomb.
