10 years to his death at Is years. a
few months ago, he had been working

the light of day upon it.
Young McCarty had progressed so
Tar with his experiments in transmits

ternediary of wires that he took out
a number OF patents before his death.
He had demonstrated his principle of
operation through much experimental

ments and had interested several prom
inent capitalists in his marvellous un-
dertaking. Marvellous because the
overcoming of many obstacles was
necessary where the human voice was

REFUGEE BURGLAR
HAS A RECORD.
Eugene Brandt Is Identified
by Several Soldiers as
a Thief From Philippines
DENIES THEIR STORY

The police department is in posses
sior. Of evidence against Eugene
Brandt. the young refugee burglar that
is likely to go hard with him when
he is placed on trial for the burglary
of the Cosmos Club last August. Brandt
was captured last Thursday Afternoon
in a tent in Jefferson Square wE>Sre
he had been posing as refugee.
The police learned yesterday that
Brandt had served as a regular soloier
in the Philippines and that he had a
bad record there, having been con-
cerned in several crimes. He served
term in prison for one Of his crimes.
Acting Captain Wren sent for sew
eral soldiers stationed al the Preside
yesterday TO identify Brandt as the SOL
dier criminal Of the Islands. They
recognized the refugee" and said that
he had robbed two comrades in Manila.
According to the information tur-
nished by the soldiers, Brandt robbed
a fellow soldier in the Philippines and
was sent 10 a military prison. lie
served several mopths' Imprisonment
and was released on promising q re-
form.
Soon after his release. according to
the story told TO the police, Brandt
went to work in q bakery. He had
worked there but few days when ne
began his old tricks and robbed a fell
low employe of valuable jewelry.
Brandt according TO the soldiers.
was found guilty Of the offense and
sent TO Manila jail for term of three
years. When his regiment was leaving
the Islands several weeks ago he was
released upon promising that he would
accompany his soldier comrades TO the
United States and never again trouble
the Philippines.
Brandts comrades lost track Of him
after reaching here until they read Of
his arrest for burglary. One Of them
volunteered the information concerning
Brandts bad record in the Islands to
Acting Captain Wren, who then sent
for several other soldiers 10 identify
the refugee" so that no mistake might
be made. AS all the boys in blue re-
membeTed Brandt and as they all tell
the same story, Wren is inclined to be-
lieve that he has a dangerous GRIM
inal on his hands.
The police are working TO trace other
crimes TO Brandt. They are of the
opinion that he is responsible for many
of the robberies that have been COM
mitted in this city within the last few
weeks.
Brandt strenuously denies that he
robbed the Cosmos Club and also denies
that he was in the Philippine Islands
or ever served as one o. Uncle Sans
soldiers.

STRANGE they are making against the
order for their removal, and they feel
confident they will win in their de-
termination to be left alone.
1t is claimed by the refugees of
Alamo Square that they have received
encouragement from all officials hav-
ing anything to do with the camp
but they take serious offense from
statements recently made by w. j.
Dingee to the effect that the camps are
the homes of criminals.

meeting held yesterday. said afterward
that many of the criticisms made by
Mr. Dingee are true. He declares that
there are many in the refugee camps
who have come to the city since the
ire and are trying to save expenses

nantly denies that there are dfSrep-
stable people in Alamo Square. For
