SLICK sWISDLER CAPTURED.

UsinG the Malls for fraudulent Purposes
 Sent to Jail by Commissioner Wright.
 The police made an important cap ture of slick swindler yesterday after noon at the Tontine hotel The prisoner gave the name of J. H. Williams at police headquarters. and said that he lived In Naugatuck. He was turned over to the United States authorities and committed to jail in default of sl,500 bonds.
 Several days ago Williams inserted an advertisement in a morning paper to the effect that he wanted to hire competent foreman to take charge of stock farm. Eight replies were sent to him from this city, and to each ap- plicant Williams sent letter request Ing him to meet him at the Tontine hotel yesterday in order to make ar engagements. Among those who received these letters were James A. Boyle of 75 Carlisle street, Thomas Anthony of 27 Edgewood avenue and Charles L. Price of George street. West Haven. When each applicant met Williams at the Tontine hotel. according to ap- pointment yesterday morning. he told them that he would give them $40 a month, and found. that each one of them must give him $20 as guarantee | of good faith, etc. He also told them to come back in the afternoon and bring the money with thcm. One of the men gave him $ at the first interview. but l this was the only money he secured. | Tn the meantime several of the men complained to the police. and Detec- tive Reilly was detailed upon the case. He went at once to the Tontine hotel, and after brief conversation with Will Hams placed him under arrest. He was immediately turned over to the United States authorities charged with using the mails for fraudulent purposes. Wil- Hams was taken before United States l Commissioner Wright, and held under q, 800 bonds for hearing next Monday. As he could not secure bonds he was committed to jail.
 The police are of the opinion that the name given by the prisoner is fictitious and they have ascertained that no one having such a. name owns a stock farm in Naugatuck. One of the applicants for the position, Thomas Anthony, gave up position yesterday morning in order to accept the situation with Williams.

NO NEW DEPOT YET.

New Trscks st Cedar Iiiii and Harlem
 River Make it Possible to Get Along a
 While Longs'.
 The offieials of the Consolidated road have decided not to begin the construe' ton of the new passenger station Tn this city this fall. Tho improvements ct Harlem river and Cedar Hill have relieved the pressure on the storage facilities for freight cars to such An extent that the construction of the new passenger station will probably be de- iayed. If the facilities for handling freight cars at Harlem river and Cedar Hill had not been greatly enlarged n new passenger station would have been required in this city 10 give room for tracks on the site of the present sta ton.
 It was thought that as soon as busi- ness picked up after the dull times that the new structure would be built Receipts for August showed great improvement. and the receipts so far this month are considerably greater than for the same time last month. One day this week there was quite congestion In the freight business. about 400 cars of grain coming into this city bound east. In many cases these grain cars have to wait two or three days until their designations are ascertained. and here Is where the storage tracks at Cedar Hill helped out the rush. The new station will. however. have to be erected another year.

Wang" was presented with the same old jokes. but there were many new faces and several novelties were introduced. Virginia Earl made a charming Mataya and Marion Singer, as the widow, was most acceptable Albert Hart as the regent of Siam was every inch regent and his songs were all greeted with encores. Among others worthy of special mention were "The Man With an Elephant on His Hands," and his duet with Miss Earl was well received. The performance was much enjoyed. ii

Representative Dunphy Gives IL
Basis of His Charges.

Representative Dunphy Gives the
Basis of His Charges.
WASHINGTON, May 24-The congress
sonal investigation into frauds and ir-
regularities in naval armor plate began
to-day with open doors. Representative
Dunphy stated that his information came
from documents sent to the departments,
from official papers and from the news
papers. Mr.. Dunphy's statement detailed
the early discovery of irregularities and
the investigation made by the Navy De-
partment, which led to the fining of the
Carnegie company. Mr.. Dunphy said
armor plates had been tested at the In
dian Head proving ground and had been
found defective. 1t had then been re-
treated so as to overcome the defects
"Was this retreatment in secret?" asked
Chairman Cummings.
Mr.. Dunphy answered in the affirma-
tive. He said that one plate was picked
out as a sample OF large number of
plates, amounting to 34S tons. When this
secret retreatment had been made il
served to pass the sample plate and that
in turn passed the entire 34S tons of armor.
Mr.. Dunphy then spoke of blowholes IN
the armor of the Monitor Terror. Ex-
perts had gone TO the navy yard and
actually had located two blow-holes which
had been filled up to deceive the govern
ment Similar blow-holes existed IN the
armor of many other ships, but it was
impossible for the experts TO locate the
defects. as the ships were abroad at their
stations. He said the first charges COW
cred seven hundred defective plates. In
some cases pebbles had been dropped into
biow-holes In others ~ ling card had
been dropped in. This was done by work.
holes Recent charges covered not only
armor plates but the bolts and screws Sc
curing the plates.
In conclusion M. Dunpny said: MY In
formation is that the defective plates will
be found on the Oregon. the Machias, the
Castine the Monadnock, the Cincinnati
the Terror, the New York and Monterey.
and that the exact position of the plates
on each of these vessels can be located
by the parties who made the complaint
and whose names the committee will be
able to obtain from the evidence on file
NV objects in offering the original resolu-
tion of inquiry were: first, that the gov
ernment might save perhaps millions OF
dollars by the discovery or those great
frauds. and. secondly, that If our cruisers
and battleships ARd plastered on their
fective as to Lessen their effectiveness or
ca fetv that the government, upon discov-
erv of it, might take proper steps to
remedy those evils and provide for the
nroner effectiveness and safety of the YES
sells" He added that the defective plates
located by the government experts had
been estimated to be worth 100000 TO
81 600 600 and on these the committee has
asked CAPTAIN Samson, of the Naval Bu-
reau OF Ordnance. to appear tomorrow.

SLEEP[NG-CAR REFORM.
Measure that Strikes at the Extortion
of the Pullman Company.
special to the Indianapolis Journal.

special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON. May PA bill intro
duced in the House last week by Represen-
tative Fielder. of New Jersey. is arousing
considerable interest among tourists and
travellers. The bill attempts to curb the
arrogance Of the Pullman Palace Car Com
pany by regulating its present exhorbi-
tant rates. uniform rate of half a cent
per mile is to be charged for a lower berth
in sleeper. and one-third of a cent per
mile for an upper berth. In addition to
this grateful reduction of rates every
sleeping car is to be provided with a
safe in which passengers may place their
money or other valuables before retiring
to their berths for the night Mr. Fielder
has already received scores of letters from
travellers all over the country, expressing
their hearty appreciation of his bill and
urging Its passage. Many other Repre-
sentatives are hearing from their con-
stituents calling upon them TO support the
measure. The greatest benefit would be
derived from the bill by people travelling
only comparatively short distances who
now are compelled to pay for a berth
whether 1t is occupied an hour or a whole
night 1t moreover furnishes a Just re-
duction 10 those travellers who are COM
PEELED to suffer the discomforts of an m
per berth. The clause compelling the COM
pany to provide a safe for every car also
meets the hearty appreciation of every
traveller.
The passage of Mr.. Fielder's bill may
perhaps cut down some of the present
enormous profits OF the Pullman companv
put II may not be generally known thar
the company receives in addition 10 Tn.
extra Zee paid by the passenger the sum
oi cents per mile per from the rail
ROAD company which hauls the car. The
notion that the Pullman company paws
the rallroad company for the motive now
er or Tor the privilege OF running over the
line is erroneous Some roads pay a trifie
less tnan cents and others pay more bur
the price averages cents i'm addition to
which the railroad company renairs aT
damage suffered by the Pullman cars from
accidents on the road. Various railroads
have attempted TO escape from these grind
ing terms and some of them, notably the
Baltimore q Ohio, have undertaken it's
own palace car service All such ATTEMPTS
have proved failures and the comranies
have been grateful IL the Pullman car.
were restored. AS a practical illustra
ton, 1T may be said that the Pullman COM
pany receives 81 from every passenger it
carries over the Norfolk & Western
from Washington to New Orleans and re-
ceives $50 for every II carries it's pas
sengers In, while the Norfolk & Western
itself is glad to get $27 from the passenger
for the ticket, and has to haul the sleeper
and be responsible for all damage beside
1t would seem. therefore. that there Is
room for reduction in Pullman car rates
