 THE SHOPLIFTERS New York Department Stores
 Suffer Great Loss DISCUSSING MRS. CHADWICK Banking Community Excited Over the Affair-How Jerome Was
 Duped by Jacobs-A Night
 and Day Bank.
DISCUSSING MRS. CHADWICK
BY JOHN MARTHoL.

New York December 1.-The depart ment stores and hotels have recently de- veloped an unusual amount of activity in putting a stop to shoplifting and the dlcbing of souvenirs. The big depart ment stores at this season of the year usually increase the number of detectives that watch their counters and their ous- toners, and the number of cases brought before the police courts on account of shoplifting is larger than for a number of years. Heretofore the social position of the shoplifter, which is not always lowly, and the value of the articles stolen. which is infrequently great, have ob- tained from the magistrates a degree of clemency not generally exercised. All of this has been stopped this year, and a heavy bail has been assessed in a number of cases which, of course, was readily given and the offender has rarely shown up for trial. Proprietors of this class of establishments do not hesitate to say that their losses have reached to such a figure that strenuous methods in dealing with offenders became imperative. The zeal of the store detectives has led them
 
 the departments stores will find tkem- selves defendants in many damage suits, but juries as a rule in deciding cases have taken into consideration the fact that the innocent must frequently suffer in order that the guilty may be punished and large verdicts for damages are infre- quont. Another class of petty pilfering that has been source of annoyance is the souvenir hlching that goes on in the big hotels, and women detectives are now employed in the larger hotels to watch for the people who think 1t no crime to steal spoons and napkins, and articles of silver from the tables while the waiter is not watching. In one of the new .-otels there is a room with Indian decorations, and the number of thus scattered SOIL Venirs have proven most attractive to the souvenir hunter The matter of steal ing tableware has become such a habit that all the hotels are fitting their tables with the cheapest possible articles, so as to minimize the loss if they are stolen. The after-t theatre supper Is the time when the souvenir thief is most active, and it is the time when the women de- tectiVes are compelled to exercise the greatest activity The detected piuer usually gives up the booty and laughingly explains the matter as joke. In this particular branch of detective work the women have proven much more effective than men.

.Iernnne Mas nnned.

When Richard Garfield entered a plea of guilty to the charge of being common gambler and was fined 5000 by Judge Cowing in the court of general sessions, the last chapter was written in one of the most interesting and sensational stories that has occurred In New York for a decade. By appearing in court and thus pleading, Garfield has saved number of people from telling in public of their losses at the gambling table. -4e has also relieved Mir Reginald Vanderbilt from the necessity of remaining out of New York city and MT Jeromes seuths will no longer camp on his trail when there is proba bility of his coming to the metro polls. The Garfield case has been an in- tresting che, not only on account Of the personality of the defendant but on &C., count of the people involved in it. Mr. Jerome undoubtedly feels more or less mortified over the developments that have been made public concerning the char acter and conduct of his one-time star detective, man named Jacobs. Jacobs Is said to have come to New York from the west and in some way obtained em- ployment with MT. Jerome and claimed after his employment with MT. Jerome that he had secured evidence sufficient to convict a nunher of prominent gambling house keepers. among them being Richard Garfield. It has recently developed that Jacobs Is fakir of the worst type and not only did not enter Cantelds and the other gambling houses, as he claimed he had done, but that on the occasion of the famous raids, about two years ago. he was the medium through which the keepers of the alleged gambling houses obtained information that a raid was con- templated and that MT. Jerome and ln- spector Brooks with their ax and crow bar brigade were on tine warpath. Jacobs is at present a miserable prisoner in the Tombs and will probably serve a term for the purjuries he has committed. It is not probable that the disappearance of Jacops will bring the war against gambling to an end, but it is certain that in MT. Jeromes future efforts to put a stop to it he will exercise a very rigid scrutinty over the character and antecedents of the men he employs to obtain the evil dence upon which he expects to base charges. No one has questioned Mir Jeromes good faith in employing Jacobs; it was simply an error of judgment and such an error as the wisest and most conservative of men are likely to com init

'.I counted over 200 men in the munic- ipal lodging house one night" says The odore Waters, reporting in Everybodys Magazine for December part of the in- vestigation for that magazine.

But of course few men do use the institution to the limit of their privileges, so that the real number is probably far above 5000 Such figures give a faint conception of the number of the homeless on Manhattan Island; and yet it is but an infinitesimal portion of the evidence of the city's mis- cry Nights after I have seen over 300 men shut up in the house on First ave- nue, have gone over to Madison square end found the benches crowded with 9

Monday In the case OF the application
for an injunction by the Western Min.

the Shafter Mining Company and J. II.
Sheppard from working their claims at

denied the injunction and decided that
the plaintiff company had no rights
whatever to an injunction or to any re.
lief whatever. The rights of Mr.. Shep-
hard have been clearly defined In for
