Special Dispatch to The Call.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Dec. 7.-Because

pository of 100000 in Government bonds
after being warned that her conduct con-
stituted contempt of court and that the
only punishment provided by the statutes
is confinement in Jail. Mrs. Mary E.

ard J. Curtis, in the Common Pleas Court

Mrs. Smith admitted to the court again
to-day that she had S300,0 in Govern
ment bonds, but she said she will never
tell where they are, deposited. She has
other interests which raise the value of
her fortune to more than $500,000. She is
a business woman of the modern type
and has repeatedly spurned the advice Of
her friends in her present predicament.
In business and social circles Mrs. Smith
stands high.

facturer, brought suit against Mrs. Smith
to recover $500 for Office rent, contracted

whereabouts Of her bonds. She stub
bornly refused to answer the questions

continues:
II decided to send an armed force of
$50 out by the o'clock train next morning
(this Monday morning) to clear the line,
so an armored car was prepared during
the night and manned with part of a
company and two Colt guns. This went
ahead of the engine flying the United

BOYS ORGANIZE
CRIMINAL CLUB
San Jose Police Uncover
Band of Youthful
MarauderS.
Special Dispatch to The call.

SAN JOSE, Dec. 1.-THE police have un-
earthed a Juvenile criminal club in this
city, which has been committing numer-
Gus depredations. In it are dozen or
more boys and young men who have
gained notoriety in police circles because
of petty thefts. They have a thorough
organization, known as the Davy Crock
ett Club, with headquarters and a full
set of officers. So perfectly have they
Organized that 1t is believed by the police
that some Fagin IN the form of an ex-
convict has been coaching the boys.
The disclosure was made by Peter Gar
cia, who was recently arrested for steal
ing a number of tools from John LETTER,
a livery stable keeper at the corner Of
First and William streets. OF late the
many small thefts have puzzled the po-
lice. Garcia claims to have been refused
membership until he had gained a police
record, and in order to qualify he began
stealing. Upon his arrest for purloining
the tools Garcia pleaded guilty and re-
ceived a sentence Of sixty days in the
County JAIL
The boys disposed Of their goods
through local fence and in San Fran
cisco. A part of all the proceeds went
into the club treasury. The police expect
to round up all the members of the club.

AS the head of an electrical business he
already has relations with all the metal
lurgical concerns.
The Government is anxious to have a
competent opinion upon the effects of the
formation of big trusts, and to what ex-
tent they count in the industrial progress
of the United States. This matter is of
peculfar interest to France, which is the
only European country enforcing the law,
dating back to the revolution, absolutely
prohibiting any form Of trust. WeillerS
concluded:
