GOODS WAITED IDENTIFICATION
Over Forty Suits Stolen by
Goldman, Brower and
Moran Recovered by
Deteetives. ,
The office of Chief of rolice Murphy
1 this morning resembled the interior of a
regular clothing store. Forty odd suits
of clothes were spread out on chairs and
tables. They were labelled and prepared
for inspection of owners who might be
able to identify them. All of them had
been recovered by Detectives Frank Ben
nett and Dan Lee, who rounded up the
trio of professional male shoplifters—
Goldman, Brower and Moran—who had
for months been operating extensively
In all the cities of northern New Jersey
for a long waile. kd in this city for
•bout four months. 'The two detectives
worked on the mysterious case for about
■ week before they ran down the trio.
Since that time they have been kept
busy running down the suits of clothes
stolen *ud pawned duping tbte foup
months the trio was operating in this
city. The fortv odd suits were mainly
recovered in tne pawn shops of this city.
It is presumed that in all, hundreds of
•uitc will be recovered in the pawnshops
of Hoboken, Newark, Elizabeth and Pat
erson, although it is believed that many
of the articles stolen in other cities were
pawnedjn this city. In fact, the display
In Chief of Police Murphy’s office was
arranged in anticipation of a visit today
of clothiers who were robbea in Eliza
beth and Paterson.
Ten of the suits recovered have been
- Identified by Manager -..brains of the
National Outfitting Company, of New
ark avenue, as having been stolen from
that concern, and -our suits have been
identified by Herman Arents, of No. 381
Central avenue, as having been stolen
from him.
Most of the suits stolen by the trio
Were pawned and the tickets torn up,
and although Brower and Moran made
a confession, the task of recovering the
stolen property is by no means an easy
one.
A number of the suits were founi in^
the possession of Samuel Leif, a Pavonia
•venue clothing dealer, who was arrested
on a charge of receiving stolen gords.
LeffIsays the men from whom they pur
chased the goods deceived him, giving
him a source for their supply Other than
that of stealing. '
All four men implicated were today
field in the First Criminal Court in ?500
apiece for the Grand oury. Counsellor
John A. Dennin represented Left, and
Counsellor Archibald represented Gold
man, Blower and Moran. Lett gave bail.

Charley Wing, the Mott street, N. Y.,
Chinaman, who Jumped from the Penn
sylvania ferryboat Cinncinnati as the
boat was leaving her slip on this side of
the river yesterday morning, in an at
tempt to commit suicide, died in the City /
Hospital this morning. It is the first
time in the history of the police depart
%
ment that a Chinaman has been known
to commit suicide.
It was said this afternoon that Charlie
Wing's suicide was due to fear of meet
ing Chong Wong Lee, a Chinese tea
merchant, of No. 25 Mott street. A few
weeks ago Lee left Wing in charge of his
store while he took a trip. During Lee’s
absence Wing departed from the store
taking 1500, which he spent while on a
spree. He returned to Mott street yes
terday caught sfght of Lee, who pursued
him. There was a race to West street.
Wing took, a street oar and Lee took the

believing that Lee woudl take the next
boat on the New York side and knowing
that the Cincinnati would be on its re
turn trip before Loe could reach the Jer

slip. Then he must have changed' his
mind and decided to take his life.

Digests
Nearly everyone will admit that as a
nation we eat too much meat and too lit
tle of vegetables and the grains.
For business men, office men and clerks
and in fact everyone engaged in seden
tary er indoor occupations, grains, milk
and vegetables are mueh more health
ful; * '■ ~
Only men engaged in a severe outdoor
^ manual labor can live on a heavy meat
diet and continue in health.
As a general rule, meat , once a day
is sufficient for all classes of men, wom
en and children, and grains, fruit and
vegetables should constitute the bulk of
food eaten.
But many of the most nutritious foods
are difficult of digestion and it is of no
use to advise brain workers to eat large
ly of grains and vegetables where the
digestion is too weak to assimilate them
properly.
It is always best to get the best results
from our food that some simple and
harmless digestive snould be taken after
meals to assist the relaxed digestive or
gans, and several years experience have
proven Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets to be
a verv safe, pleasant and effective diges
tive and a remedy which may be taken
daily with the best results.
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets can hardly
be .called a patent medicine, as they do
not act on the bowels nor any particular
organ but only on tue food eaten. They
supply what weak stomachs lack, pepsin
diastase and by stimulating the gastric
glands increase the natural secretion of
hydroehloris .acid.
People who make a daily practice of
taking one or two oi: Stuart’s Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal are sure to have
perfect digestion, wnich means perfect
health. /
There is no danger of forming an in
jurious habit, as the tablets' contain ab
solutely nothing but natural digestives;
cocaine, morphine and similar drugs have
no place in a stomach medicine and Stu
art’s Dyspepsia Tablets are eertaiply
the best Known and most popular of all
stomach remedies. —
Ask your druggist for a fifty-cent.
package of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets
and after a week’s use note the improve
ment in health, appetite and nervous

Confesses.
PATHETIC 8CENE IN COURT
Prisoner Was a Special Mes
senger in the Hackensack
«
P. O.—Prison Awaits
Him.
% -
There was a pathetic Scene in United
States Commissioner Lindsley S. RoweV
office in the Davidson Building this mdm
ing when sixteen-year-old Joseph H.
Kruse, of Hackensack, was arraigned be
fore tiie Commissioner on a charge of
robbing the United States mails. The
boy broke down and confessed to all the
accusations against him. He cried heart
ily and between convulsive sobs begged’
his father to forgive him. Tears rained
down the father's cheeks. A woman,
friend of the Kruse, family stood* by,
ready to go bail for the boy when bail
was fixed at 31,000 totawait the action
of the Federal Grand Jury, but as the
property was in her husband’s name it
had to be refused.
Young Kruse was employed aS a spec
ial deliver/ messenger in the Hackensack
Post Office. ( Numerous complaints
reached the office to the effect that let
ters containing money, checks and pack
ages containing jewelry did not reach the
people to whom they were addressed. U.
S. Postal Inspectors Cortelyou and Holt
by went to work on the case. jJy means
or a decoy letter containing a fifty-cent.
piece they traced the robberies to the
youthful special delivery agent. This let
ter was left on a table with Kruse alone
in the room. The marked coin was found
in his possession. The letter and envel
ope had been destroyed. After his arrest
by the Chief of Police of Hackensack he
confessed to the Inspectors to having stol
en a gold watch, several scarf pins, rings
and one eh»ck for $300.
One letter he opened contained four
checks on the Hackensack National Bank
each of a large denomination. These
frightened him, and on the night of the
day in which he opened the letter he
wrapped the checks in a piece of paper
and shoved them through an iron screen
at the entrance to the bank, where they
were found next morning by the watch
man.
Young Kruse skid he stole the money
and jewelry from the letters in order to
make himself solid with his sweetheart,
whose name he refused to divulge.
He was brought to this city Monday
evening late, and after arraignment, was
held for examination today. Meanwhile
he was confined in the County Jail. Af
ter this morning’s arraignment he was
taken to jail again by United States Dep
uty Marshall Sanford E. Smith.
As younfcKruse has passed his six
teenth birthc SWe cannot be sent to tho
reform school, and the Federal Postal
statute provides for no liberation by the
payment of a fine. A term in StSte’s
prison stares the boy in the face. Judge
Kirkpatrick may and him guilty a'id sus
pend sentence, but it is not believed
he will do so, as the accusations against
him are serious.

Charles A. Jones, colored, tli|rty-one
years old, of No. 370 Sumner avenue,
