STRIPES FOR BOGUS "SUN" MAN
Lynch, the swiDdler, Goes 10 the Peniten.
tiary for Nine Months.

George NJ. Lynch, who posed as a SUN
reporter and sought subscriptions from
wealthy women on the plea that the money
was for the Sanitarium Gabriels In the Adj
rondacks, was sentenced by Recorder Golf
yesterday TO nine months in the peniten-
tiary. There are two other indictments
against him, which were obtained recently
after THE Sun had exposed him. Then
the District Attorney remembered that he
had pleaded guilty to grand larceny last
October and hat Judge Newburger had
released him on q suspended sentence.
The charge at that time was that he got $3.50
from a man for the Irish Fair and kept the
money.
1t was on this charge that he was sentenced
yesterday. He Is a son Of the late Theresa
Lynch, the Union Square diamond dealer,
but she cut him off in her will. Whenever
he has been arrested. however, his friends
nave interoeded for him and repaid he
money he stole. His counsel. Maurice Meyer,
told Recorder Golf yesterday that the
m one he had got for the S~anitarium Ia
briefs h ad been refunded and that Lynch
had never before been convicted of a crime,
Il have never heard" said the Recorder,
that he has been convicted before, but he
mas eScap Cd arrest ana conNlctlon many
times because he was a member OF a wealthy
family, whose members came forward and
refunded the money he stole. 1t is a lamen-
table thing, Lynch, to sentence a man W no
should have been a valuable member Of tn e
community. You had every opportunit y
education and social relations and every
thing to make a good man Of you. 1 am
afraid that you came by your money too
easy. You did not have to work for it.
You adopted a life of trickery and device
to get more money. Judge Newburger
was merciful in your case, but you had
hardly left our before you began stealing
the money supposed to go to the poor and
sick. 1 imagine that compared with you
a burglar is a respectable man" Lynch
says he has been a morphine tiend for two
years.

H0TEL SILVER IN a PUSHCART
Steallngs by Garbage Starters, the Police
Think-New style Of Graft.

Policeman Etohel Of the Union Market
station noticed last night a pushcart heaped
mp with silverware that looked too good
for the pushcart trade, Examining it, he
found among a vast number Of pieces Of
plated and solid ware about three bushels
of articles bearing the marks Of well known
hotels and restaurants, Etchel arrested
the vender, Isaac Gessner Of 20 Clinton
street,
Central Ofios men we're summoned.
They could trace mont of the goods to any
burglary reported to the detective bureau.
Detective Michaels advanced the theory
that the az .ioles had been fshed out by
sorters in the employ 81 garbage collectors.
The Brooklyn police" said Michaels,
had a man arrested to-day for receiving
silver sorted from garbage, and this looks
like a similar case, These garbage con-
tractors have men employed TO look for
and return all spoons, ladies, knives, forks
and other articles that get into the garbage
pals by mistake, Some Of the soTters
appear To have been pinching the silver
very generally
Among the establishments represented
on the pushcaTt were the Waldorf, Smith
\ MoNells, Hoffman House, Rartholdi.
Manhattan, New York Athletic Club, Park
Avenue and Sinclair House,

gins Takes q Little Pride In H."


WASHINGTON, Feb. q. 1t seems TO b,
quite well settled among Republican mem
bers of the New York delegation In the
House that Represent itive Edward n.
Vreeland will be elected TO succeed Odell
as chairman Of the State committee. The
President has stated TO several Of the men,
: beTs not only that Mr.. Vreeland Ia salts
factory 20 him, but that he wishes TO sec
him named. Mr.. Treeland Ia 10 a passive
mood. and il Is Understood that he Ia willing
10 accept the place IL II Is the desire Of his
party associates that he should assume
the post.
ALBANY, Feb. 2s.-0ov. Higgins was
asked tonight regarding the report about
Mr.. Vreeland for State chairman and said
he knew nothing Of II.
Il take a little pride in the fact tina they
have TO 20 to my district to get a good
man, = was all he would say.
The suggestion that the Republican State
committee meet at once and elect Repre-.
sentative Vreeland az its chairman Ii well
received in Albany. William Barnes. Jr.,
who has been mentioned quite fayorably
for the place. sails Saturday for Jamaica
with Mrs. Barnes for a months trip. To-
night Mr.. Barnes, in an article on this quee-
ton in the Albany Evening Journal, headed
"Cattaraugus Man Is Considered the Best
Selection Of Candidates Thus Far Named
says:
About q fortnight ago there was q strong
sentiment that the State committee should be
called together at the earliest possible mo.
ment, and that Mr.. Barnes of this city should
be chosen to succeed Mr.. Odell. This pro-
gramme did not meet the approval Of the
Governor. Mr.. Barnes or his friends. for 1t Ia
well known that Mr. Barnes has not at any
time felt that his selection for the chairman
ship would be for the paTty's interest. Ills
opposition 10 MIR. Odell has been pronounced
for over two years, and the friends Of the
latter would never cooperate with Mr.. Barn es.
and party harmony for the coming cam
paign, which certainly will be a serious one,
IL most TO be desired.
Edward b. Vrecland represents the Thirty
seventh district of this State IN the House Of
Representatives. He is president of the
Salamanca Trust Company, Is 10 years old a
man Of typical Yankee hard sen Sc and good
jud gment. That he comes from the county
Of Cattaraugus, where Gov, Higgins lives,
was urged by some TO -day as good reason
why ho SHOULD not be selected, but Mr., Vree-
lands friends answered that II Mr.. Vreeland
was the right man II made little difference
where he came from, They pointed ont that
Mr Vreeland was In no sense u candidate,
had no axe 10 grind and no political ambition
20 serve, but that II he was selected II would
be IN the interest OF the harmonious adjust

wanna Railroad Companys reduction by a
readjustment of fares, so that all south
ern passenger traffic. whether by way OF
Washington, Cincinnati or Louisville. WIFI
be on an equal basis
The company wifi also. on September /,
place on sale 1.00O-mile tickets, valid only
on its lines east of Pittsburg and Erie at
the nat price OF $50. These mileage tickets
viii be transferable. No change is 10 be
made In the price OF the interchangeable
mileage tickets now sold by the company
which are not transferable. and upon which
a deposit of $40 above the regular price
is required. 1t Is estimated that $1,000 in
Interchangeable mileage books are presented
daily on the various roads, and of this
number 65 per cent are used on the lines
of the Pennsylvania railroad.
In making the announcement Vice Presi-
dent Thayer said:
This reduction of fares has been the
subject of serious consideration for a year
past. The company has expended large
sums to build relief lines upon which freight
trains should be moved. that this class of
traffic might be diverted from the present
main lines, and thus secure less liability OF
delay TO the company's largely increased
passenger service. The company has be-
Ieyed that the time would come when a
much larger traffic could be handled prof
itably with a reduction OF the present rates
of fares"
