AN0T H Err is
IN CUSTODY.
Authorities Believe They Have
Man Who Took Part in
$500 HO!dup.

New Brunswick, Jan. 27.-Anoth-
er arrest was made in the $1,000
hold-up, yesterday, when Antonio
Caffaro-a suspect identified on the
sly by William F. Harkins, when he
was in New York, Wednesday, as the
man whose mask momentarily came
down during the robbery-came out
to New Brunswick from New York
and was picked up at the p. r. r.
depot by Sergeant Clinton and Po-
liceman Wilcox.
Caffaro is now in Jail, to which he
was committed by Justice of the
Peace Sedan. r. A. Montgomery.
head of the Delaware Quarry and
Construction company, is the com
plainant.
The arrest was made at the request
of Detective Canning, who had such
positive evidence that he went to
New York yesterday with an eXem-
plifled warrant to Caffaro, who is a
macaroni manufacturer at 167
Thompson street. He learned on ar
irving at the place that Caffaro had
leIJ 10 CUule mere vi NlSiJ " Ms
wife, who remained here when her
husband sold out his business at 22
Easton avenue, shortly after the
nold-up.
The detective quickly telephoned
to the police here and besides the
Sergeant and officer Wilcox, Patrol
men Dwyer and Mccain went to the
station in citizens garb and stood at
the foot of the stone steps leading to
the platform. But the Italian did
not escape the sergeant and Officer
Wilcox, who arrested him as he stop
ped from the train.
Caffaro, who is % years of age,
was detained at the police station un-
til 1:45 O'Clock, when Detective Can
ming returned from New York. He
merely asked why he was arrested.
Caffaro was suspected at the time
OF the hold-up, and his departure
from here increased suspicion, es-
pecially when some queer shipments
were madeto New York. 1t was found
that the man had engaged in bust
ness in little basement at 167
Thompson street, where such a bust
ness had not existed before. We'd
nesday Mr.. Harkins took a peep into
the shop and told the detectives that
was the man whose face had been eX-
posed at the time of the hold-up.

The annual assembly of the Rari-
night was a fashionable and brilliant
event. Every feature combined in
one harmonious whole which served
to mark the affair as a notable one in
local social annals and as the society
event of the current season.
The guests numbered about two
hundred. There were about seventy
couples in the march which, led by
Mayor and Mrs. H. M. Brace, began
about 10 o'clock. Many pretty man
euvres were introduced. The lane
iers followed and then the first dance
on the program was started at 1O:45.
From then until after 4 o'clock a
gradually decreasing number of
couples danced to the enticing strains
of Mazzei Brothers orchestra of eight
pieces from Newark.
Supper was served at 12:45 o'clock
by Caterer Schussler's corps of wait
ers. Punch and cafe parfait were
served at one corner of the hall
throughout the evening.
The decorations were superb. The
ceiling was done in streamers of red
and white, the yacht club colors.
The walls were covered with draper
les and panels, and lace curtains
were hung before the windows. The
orchestra was seated on the stage.
A thin gauZe curtain hung at the
front of the stage and this novel ef-
feet, together with the rustic scenery
at the rear and sides of the stage,
presented an entrancing sight. Two
small r Y c. ueunantS were diSnlay-
ed at either side of the proscenium.
A full staff of attendants did every
thing possible for the comfort OF the
guests.
State Senator w. c. Jackson, who
was expected, was unable TO be pres
ent.
The committee in charge of the as
sembly comprised Dr.. H. M. Brace,
chairman; George e. Mead. treasur-
er; w. M. Floersch. secretary: c. c.

BODY
OF CHILD IN
fHE SOUND.
Was Picked Up at ROssviIle, S. |.
in Badly DecOmpOsed
[ Condition.
WAS eARTERET GIRL.
Father identified Body as that
of His Daughter Who Fell
Overheard.
Special to the EVENING NEWS /:

~
Tottenville, Jan. 27.-After be-
Ing in the water since November the
body of little Maggie Duko, eight
years old, daughter of Frank Duko,
of Carteret, N. j., was found yester-
day near the Utter Marine Works,
Rossville, by Henry Woglom, who
was working along shore. The body
was in fearful state and one leg
was missing.
Sunday afternoon, November 70,
the child with IA number of others
was playing on the dock of the
American Lucol Oil and Paint Com
pany at Carteret when, in some un-
was drowned.
The father and a number of
friends dragged the sound for sew
eral days after the accident, but they
could find no trace of the body and
when the attempt was finally given
up, it was with the idea that the body
had been swept away by the strong
tide. From the fact that one of the
legs is missing, however, it looks as
if the body had been wedged between
some piling and had been held in
that position until one of the recent
storms when the leg was torn off
setting the body free.
When the corpse was found, Mr.
Woglom notified the police and they
in turn asked Mr.. Duko to come to
Roseville to see if he could identify
the body. The only way the father
could tell was by the clothes for the
face had been so badly decomposed
by the length of time that it had been
in the water that hardly anything
was left of it.
Later in the day Coroner Matthew
Cahill came to Rossville and ordered
the body taken to Silvies' morgue at
West New Brighton.

STOKES WITH
ROOSEVELT.
Governor and Senator Dryden
Guests of the President at
Luncheon Today.
I'rom the NEWS Correspondent }


Washington, D. c., Jan. 27.-Gov-
ernor Edward c. Stokes and Senator
John f. Dryden, of New Jersey, were
the guests of President Roosevelt at
luncheon at the White House today.
1t is understood that the general po-
litical situation in the state was dis
cussed thoroughly. c. S. A.
TRENTON, Jan. 27:-President
Roosevelt has invited Governor
Stokes to take luncheon with him to-
day at the White House and the gov
ernOr has accepted. He left Trenton
last night for Washington.
The invitation from the president
reached the state house Thursday
night, after the governor had gone to
Lakewood for a few days rest 1t
was communicated to the governor
by telephone, and he returned to
Trenton yesterday. 1t is announced
here that the invitation to break
bread with the president has no pol
itical Significance, but at the same
time the visit is exciting considerable
interest in view of the fact that Sen
ator Colby, Mark Pagan and George
l.. Record, the leaders in the North
Jersey reform movement, were rec
enr luncheon guests of the president.
II is declared here, however that
the invitation to McssrS. Colby, Fag-
an and Record was secured largely
through the solicitation of their
friends. The president and the gov
ernor have been intimate friends for
a lone time

BURGLARS ON
STATEN ISLAM D
Commissioner Bingham will
Probably Send More Police
men SOOn--0nIy I25 Men.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-With the
entire police force of Staten Island
working night and day the large
number of burglaries, attempted
burglaries and hold-ups during the
last six months has created feeling
of fear among the residents and an
appeal is to be made to Commissioner
Bingham to assist in catching the
thieves by detailing more policemen
there have been almost dozen rob-
berries or attempted robberies, yet not
two arrests have been made.
Within month the police of the
Eightieth precinct have been notified
of half a dozen burglaries only two
of which. however, resulted in large
loss. On last Monday night the
home of John Martin, the late nomi-
ness of the Municipal League for
Borough President, on Grymes Hill,
TOmpkinsyille was entered. The
house of Municipal Justice George
w. Stake, in 81. Paul avenue, Tomp-
kinsville, was entered 4 short time
ago and Silyerwarc and jewelry val
ued at $500 taken. The home of J.
H. Bostwick, near by, was also Wis
tied, but the thieves were frightened
away. Numerous other attempted
burglaries were reported.
In the Eiehty-first precinct. of
which Captain William Hogan is In
command, within a month half
dozen robberieS have been reported,
but no arrests have been made. A
vigilance committee has been organ
lied at Westerleigh and woe to the
burglar who is caught by the resi-
dents of that section. On Thursday
evening last Mrs. Joseph Weir of
Port Richmond, while passing
through the Port Richmond was ac-
costed by two men, who demanded
her money. Mrs. Weir screamed and
the men ran away. On Monday eve
ming two called at the home of Miss
Louisa Gehring and choked her al
most into insersibility. The girl
screamed and the men made good
their escape The above are few
illustrations of what is occurring
right along
