Stroudsburg. June "A rich harvest
was reaped by pickpockets, burglars
and "other crooked gentlemen" on
Wednesday, during the parade of the
Four County Firemen's association. 1t
Is thought that nearly four thousand
dollars was stolen. Some of the heav!-
est losers were those who came here
to witness the parade. No arrests were
made by the police, showing that the
invaders had things pretty much their
own way. f. B. Hildebrand, of near
Columbia, n. Y, was the largest loser,
the pickpockets getting away with 4
small fortune. Early on Wednesday
evening Chief of Police Welter received
the following telegram: MY pocket
picked getting on train tonight at
O'Clock. Large pocketbook, two five
hundred dollar bonds, two hundred dol
lars in cash. Warren county handbook,
eight hundred in notes. (Signed) +.
b. Hildebrand."
Hildebrand is wealthy and can stand
the loss without inconvenience. He had
checks to the amount of 1925 cashed at
the East Stroudsburg National bank.
The bonds are not registered and are
easily negotiable. Among others who
suffered at the hands of the pickpock-
cts are the following: John Widman,
