but the majority of the people looked for an extra
session, believing that the great Importance or the

other consideration. The manufacturers along the
Passaic at Newark. Belleville, Harrison and

THIEVES STEAL IN COURT.
THEY ROB CAPTAIN THOMPSON, ACCUSED
OF FORGERY, WHO is RE-
LEASED ON BAIL.

That thieves operate as boldly under the very
noses of the Tammany police in broad daylight
as they do by night in dark alleyways has been
learned by William H. Thompson. formerly COM
modore of the White Star fleet of Atlantic liners
whose pocket was picked yesterday in the Gen.
tre-st. court. The thief got $40 BILL also TAX
ing from his victims necktie diamond pin and
from his shirt bosom diamond stud. In court
score of policemen and half dozen de-
tectives The only other persons near Captain
Thompson besides these professed thief catchers
were his wife, daughter and counsel.
Thompson, who is now member of the Flow
er-Thompson Medical Company. with offices at
No. SO Cedar-st.. is charged with obtaining the
signature of John S. Nugent president of the
Automatic Coaling and Weighing Barge Com
pany. to check. then having the signature
Autographed and placed on the debenture bonds
of the Flower Thompson company treasurer,
with intent to deceive.
When he walked into court ready for ex-
animation on the charge. accompanied by his
counsel he met his wife and daughter.
Parents and daughter wept, and Captain
Thompson used his wife's handkerchief, which
she offered to him, to wipe awcy his tears.
The captain happened to be without money,
and his wife handed him $40 bill. which he
put in one of his pockets He also wore an
diamond stud.
While waiting for some one to come to bail
him out, Captain Thompson stood or sat and
talked with his wife and daughter, his lawyers
and a couple of friends About two hours after
he had taken the money from his wife he felt
in his pocket for the bill and discovered it was
gone. He thought he had dropped it on the floor,
at FIRST, but search was made which inef
fectual. and then his daughter said:
why, your diamonds gone, too"
He felt of his scatf and found that the pin
was missing There stud in his shirt
bosom. The diamonds valued at 800 each.
The whole party began to look on the floor for
the lost ornaments. A diligent search
failed to reveal them. The court told of
the incident. and, while Magistrate Brann looked
under his bench, the policemen and other court
officers hunted high and low, on the floor under
chairs and tables in the space behind the bar
and the rallied space. The hunt was futile and
it finally decided that the jewelry had
been stolen before the very eyes of the majesty
of the law.
Magistrate Brann postponed the examination
until tomorrow, and Captain Thompson was
taken back to the TOmbs. the bondsman he
pected falling to appear. Later in the day. how
ever he released on $1,000 bail. his counsel
having obtained bondsman in the person of
Edward Brucks. of No. 422 West Thirty ninth

had said
1T is all very we'll fer the District Attorney with
the wealth of New York behind him, to say that
the defence may call its experts but when the de-
fendant is poor the contest is unequal"
District Attorney Philbn at this point whispered
to Mr.. Osbotne and the latter announced that the
District Attorney would see that the experts for
the defence were paid.
That is. within reasonable limit said Mr.
Philbin.
Mr.. Moore stepped over to where Mr.. Philbin was
sitting and personally thanked him.
AT the close of the argument Justice Newburger
decided to admit the expert testimony of George D.
Weekes the Garfield Bank teller, and allow the
defence an exception This is practically the direct
opposite of the position taken by Justice Fursman
at the last trial in excluding the testimony of hand
writing experts, though there Is still for the
court to make distinction between Mr.. Weekes.
the witness admitted by this ruling who had
knowledge of the defendants handwriting his
banker, and the other handwriting experts, who
had such personal experience with the handwrit-
ing of the accused man.
