Discharge q Wealthy Woman Con-
viced Of shoplifting.


A New York Magistrate Refused 70
Discharge q Wealthy Woman Con-
Weed Of shopIiftins.
New York, Dec. 2.-Wealth and So
cial distinction will not be accepted
as q reason for clemency In the case
of any person found guilty Of shoplift-
ing according to a statement made
Thursday by Magistrate Whitman In
the Jefferson Market police court
The announcement was made In con-
nection with the case Of . woman
who, under the name of Mrs. Caroline
Hobart, Jersey City Heights. had been
found guilty Of stealing from a de-
partment store. Sentence was about
to be pronounced when the superin-
tendent Of the store said that his firm
wanted to withdraw the charge and
ask for the discharge Of the prisoner
because of "her social prominence
and illness extending over three
years"
The superintendent said that Mrs.
Hobart was a member Of one Of the
best families In New York. Magis-
trate Whitman responded that the
woman's social position would make
no difference in the case. TT only
makes the crime with which she Is
charged more fragrant and deserving
Of the severest possible punishment"
said the magistrate. He added. how
ever. that the plea Of Illness would be
investigated and that IL the woman
was found to be mentally irresponsi-
ble she would be DISCHARGED. Other
wise she would be sentenced. The
case was then postponed to allow IN
investigation to be made.
