STOLE TWO TONS OF BRASS.
4 Workman Carries Away Seventeen
fnEOts n Day.

oHs-
NEW YORK. April 2-Robert S Roden
is "hrassy'' man figuratively and in fact.
for he has carried twenty-five pounds of
brass from his workshops to his home in
Townshend Avenue every day for nearly
five months. In the cellar of his house
was found a considerable quantity of
brass ingots and on his own admission and
the records of junk dealers who bought it
of him. he has stolen 8. 100 pounds of brass
from the Winchester Repeating Company,
in whose works he was employed
Roden is a hard drinker, and because of
that fact was unable to support his family
by his earnings as a sweeper in the fac
tory. He began to steal lead bars from
which the bullets for cartridges are made
The revenue from lead, however was too
small to pay for even a short haul, and he
quit.
Brass is worth 12l, cents pound, and it
comes to the factory in bars five and one
half inches long. Roden placed bar in
each of the seventeen pockets nf his
clothes every night when he went home
from work. He weighed 120 pounds when
he went to work, and 1i5 pounds when he
went home wearing his coat Of mail.
AT the rate of his daily stealings he
made an income of $312 extra. But two
tons of brass is a big loss, and an unac-
countable shortage of the stock in the fac
tory led to an investigation Roden was
suspected. and last night, as he was about
to leave for home he was searched. A
bar of brass was taken from each cf the
four pockets of his overcoat. four more
from his inside coat, four from his vest,
and five from his trousers pockets. He
accepted the situation calmly, saying:
We'll. il is all up with ME now. I've got
enough brass at homie and at junk shops to
keep the British and Beers supplied with
cartridges for a month" Roden has wife
and one young son.

"Within the past few months the
