MYSTERIOUS TRUNK
BOTHERED POLICE
1t Was Found In Brandywine Park--Alleged
Thief Said to Have Bought Girl
Fine Clothes.
BROTHERS WITH ROLL OF BILLS ARRESTED
Fine Clothes. !

The pair had been to Chester and while
there had done some shopping, thereby
greatly improving their appearance.
Miss Bartee wore a swell automobile
coat that she had not worn when she
left the city several hours before and
which it is said Edward bought for
her. She also had on a fine new hat
which gave her dashing appearance.
Edward had purchased sundry new
articles of clothing. These articles in
cluded a very fine looking Raglan over
coat and derby hat.
Each had about IS in money. How the
trunk was taken out of the house is as
yet a mystery to the police.
BROTHERS ARRESTED.
Howard Hancock, aged IA years and
John b. Hancock, aged II We're arrested
yesterday with silver watch and some
money in their possession, and are sus-
pected of having stolen sum of money
from their father, John Hancock of r,
liott avenue. When the boys We're ar
rested it was thought they had taken the
money out of the stolen trunk that was
found to belong to Mr.. Carroll.
The boys first attracted notice as they
We're riding on Riverview car. The
y WdS uTdWH lO bntut
by the display of a roll of money. When
they saw they had been noticed they
jumped off the ear and ran.
Later they were seen on the coast with
n watch. which they took to pawn Mt
Harris pawn shop. While in the shop
they became frightened and ran out OF
the store leaving the timepeace upon
which they had not received any money.
The watch was recovered by Patrolman
Shields and the police on the different
districts were notified to look for the
boys. Soon after they We're arrested by
latrolman Todd.
When brought to the police station
one of the boys said he had bought the
watch, and the other said he had not
done SO. Patrolman Taylor was sent
ont to investigate and found that the
bows had bought the watch for $14.50 in
Il Market street store.
Mr.. Hancock was sent for and when he
arrived said he had missed $36. which he
believed had been stolen Mt different
times. Twelve dollars he could account
for but there was no trace of the re-
mainder He is inclined to the belief that
the boys took the money.

NO ACTION ON BONDS.
Citv Council Committee Met Last
Night.
City Solicitor Reinhardt and Chair
man James Kane We're
Not Present.

Members Of the bond committee of
City Council have as yet taken no ac-
tion in the matter of securing and restor-
ing to the proper custodian the missing
bonds of the directors of the Street and
Sewer department, which they We're di-
rected to do by Council at last week 5
meeting.
1t was expected that some course of
action would be decided upon when the
committee met last night but action was
deferred on account of the absence Of
City Solicitor Reinhardt, who is out of
the city, and Chairman James Kane Of
the committee. who is sick The
question was discussed, however, by the
members of the committee who were
present.
During the week the members of the
committee have spent considerable time
i'll looking into the matter. but whether
they have any authority is question
yet undetermined by them. 1t is prob
able that this will have to be made
clear by an opinion from Mr.. Reinhardt
before anything is done.
