A NEW BRITAIN FORGER.

Charles K. wOodruG Confesses to For
 geries Amounting to s40,OOO.
 HARTFORD, Conn, April 25.-Charles E. Woodruff of New Britain has confessed the commission of forgeries aggregating $40, 900. Woodruff haa been an energetic business man for a number of years. He started three newspapers but sold them out, was admitted to the bar but praetieed only short time and went into heavy real estate operations. He is believed to have sunk his own money and that fraudulently obtained in this way. The forgeries were very skilful and have been going on for several years. His plan was to make his own note and forge the en- dorsement. No suspicion was aroused until a few days ago when bank officer noticed that an endorsement was that of man whom he knew to have been in California at the time when the endorsement would ap pear to have been made. Woodruff said it would all be explained, but subsequently con- fsssed. He gave himself up and will have a hearing in the police court tomorrow morn

 Safe Openers at Work In New Rochelle.
 NEW YORK, April 25.-When John F. Cashin, the postmaster at New Rochelle, N. Y., arrived at his office this morning he found the place in chaotic condition. Reg istered mail matter was strewed all over the floor. On investigation he found the safe had been opened and $2,200 in stamps and money gone. It Is surmlsed the safe openers commenced their work early this morning. They gained admittance to the office by pry- ing open door leading from the side street. They then began operations on the safe by drilling holes over the combination and shov- ing the bolts back. The burglars left a oom- plete set of tools behind them. It is sup posed to be the work of New York profes- sionals The safe was in plain view from the street, and the office is within stone's throw of police headquarters. The citizens of New Rochelle find it hard to understand how such a thing could occur while six policemen are supposed to be on patrol duty to protect this small village. The secret service detectives from the New York postoffice are at work on the case.

AN IMPoRTAN It DECISION
Rendered by Judge Hopewcil In
Larceny Case.

Rendered by Judge Hopewcii In a
Larceny Case.
Judge Hopewell gave a decision In the
criminal court yesterday relative to larceny
from the person, which, II sound, will ch ange
the tactics OF prosecutors hereafter IN the ir
trial Of prisoners arraigned for such offenses.
1t camo up In the case of the State Of Ne
braska against John Arnold, who was nc
cused of stealing $50. Tho statue under
which he was arrested provides that every
individual taking valuable property from
another person shall be deemed guilty OF
grand larceny, and If convicted be sentenc I'D
to the penitentiary for not less than one por
more than seven years. This law was passed
by the legislature of 1887. The act In force
prior TO that time required that the
amount stolen must bo worth S35,
or the offense could not be
more than petty larceny or a misdemeanor,
the punishment for which was a fine and
short imprisonment in tho county jail
While the new statute makes the offense q
felony, IL in no visa amends the act defining
petty larceny. Arnold's attorney took the
ground that the act of 1857 is in contraven-
ton OF q section which provides that no law
can be amended unless tho new act contains
the section amended. Judge Hopewelrs de-
cison sustained this view. County Attorney
Mahoney will take the case up on a writ OF
error, to the supreme court. Arnold was re-
leased from jail, rearrestod and fined in the
police court.
