NEW TERROR FOR CRIMINALS.
Eight states to Have Duplicate Ber-
tiIIon Cards.

ALBANY N Y, Sept. 29.-Cornelius ".
Collins, the Superintendent of Prisons OF
this State. has just taken step which will
excite alarm in the minds of every membe-
of the criminal classes. having transformed
his office into the central branch Of the
B. 'tilion system of Identifying criminals
for every State in the Union which has
adopted that system. Superintendent Col
Inns has noticed for some time that the
number of old criminals seemed to be di-
minishing in this State, while the number
of new terners" seemed to be increasing,
and after some enquiry came to the opinion
that veteran criminals were getting cut
OF this State from a fear of the Bertillon
system. but that their places were being
taken by criminals from other States wiich
had also established the Bertllon system
There being no exchange of cards, of
course the prison authorities Of the vari-
Gus States were thus classifying as first
termers" many old criminals.
The superintendent thought that an end
should be put to this escape of criminals
from Identification, and therefore at the
recent meeting of the superntendents OF
the various Stale prisons at Cleveland he
offered to make the New York office tine
centre clearing house of the Bertillon
offices. This offer was accepted In lieu
of tae United States Government assuming
the task. as it should do. the State Of New
York will 60 the work. There are now
35.032 cards giving the measurements of
as many criminals on file in the office OF
the superintendent of prisons here The
States which will in future send cards TO
Albany are Indiana, Pennsylvania. Wis
consin. South Dakota, Connecticut. Mimi
esota and Massachusetts,. II, for instance.
a man is convicted in Indiana and sent TO
It's State prison, his measurements and his
portrait will be sent to Albany, and there

prisoned in any of the States composing
the Bertillon union. The Indiana nuthori-
ties, of course, will be Immediately inform
ed IL the man whose card has been sent is
an old criminal.
Mr.. Collins says that his Bertillon Bu-
reau is at the service of any State in the
Union, or of the police authorities in Eu-
rope. An enquiry came this week from
the Police of Vienna.
Another recent improvement in the Ber-
tillon system here has been the establish
ment of uniform system OF photograph
ing criminals. The photographs have diff
fe7ed in size owing to there not being an
understood uniform system. That error

ATTACKED BY a TRAMP.
An Aged Connecticut Couple Bru-
tally Beaten and Robbed.

WINSTED. Conn, Sept. 29.-Armed
parties are securing the country for miles
around this town in search of tramp
who committed an atrocious assault upon
two old people and looted their home.
Chaffee Lowell, one OF the Oldest farmers
in Connecticut, and his aged wife are the
victims, ard 1t is feared that both will
die of their injuries.
The Lowell farm is at Ellsworth, a thin
ly populated agricultural town where the
dwellings are widely scattered. On Tues
day farm-hand named Williams, seeking
employment, knocked at the door Of Mr..
LoyelFs home, and receiving no response,
entered. He found the old farmer and his
wife helpless on the floor of the main sit
ting room, covered with blood and barely
conscious.
Williams did what he could to revive
them, then summoned the neighbOrs.
Hours later. thanks to the exertions of
two physicians, old Mr.. Lowell was able
to tell his story in a broken voice barely
louder than whisper.
On Monday night the Lovells were awak-
ened by the crash of breaking window,
and a moment later were confronted by
tramp who had forced an entrance. With
an iron bar he beat old Mr.. Lowell into in
sensibility battering the farmers head un-
til 1t was a mass of cuts and bruises. Then
he mercilessly beat and maltreated the
aged woman, who had witnessed the at
tack upon her husband but was too terri
fed to move.
At his leisure the tramp then looted the
house. cooked and ate a meal, dressed
himself in Mr.. Lovell's best clothes. and
at daylight Tuesday departed leaving his
victims still unconscious.
Word of the crime was slow In reaching
Winstead, and it was not until yesterday
that armed searching parties were organ
lied. 4 reward Of $1,000 has been offered
for the apprehension Of the criminal.
