ROLL or SIX IN HER NAG.
Woman P,ir;e OF him and SILK Held on
ShoDliftins Charge.

Mrs. Ida M. Twcedie, who has some
re equation Gs q decorator of china and a
painter on silk, was arraigpSd in Jefferson
Market court yesterday charged With
Petit larceny. With her was a young man
who she said was her son, Louis Tweedih.
Private Dete ctive John Iarkin WHO spots
shoplifters in a Sixth avenue department
store, was the complainant. He asked
that the young man be discharged, but
insisted that the woman be held for trial
Magistrate Cornell held her in $500 bail
for the Court Of SPECIAL Sessions.
This Ia the story Larkin told. He was
on the main floor of the department store
late Friday evening when he saw n hand
some, well dressed woInan and q young
man stop at the silk counter. The woman
carried a large eatchel and the young man
a suit case. They exa mined silks on the
counter for some time and then. Larkin
gays. the woman cautiously drew a roll
of silk over the edge of the counter and
dropped il into her satchel.
He followed them when they started to
leave the store and stopped the woman at
the exit, touching her on the shoulder
"Do you mean to insult meF" she said,
when he explained what he wanted. IL
am a customer of this store and buy a lot
of goods here every year"
The young man protested, Larkin says,
and said Larkin's interference was an out
age. Iarkin took them both to the Ten
derloin station and entered charges. The
woman gave her name then as Ida Smith
of 22S West Twenty-ninth street, and the
young man said he was Louis Smith of
the same address. When they were searched
a letter addressed to Mrs. Ida NJ. Tweedie,
Sill Vanderbilt avenue, Brooklyn, was
found on the woman.
The detectives say they found that she
lived az the Vanderbilt avenue address.
She had in her pockets sos in cash and two
bank books, one showing deposits mount
ing to $3.50 and the other deposits for a con-
siderable sum.
Larkin investigated a little more at the
store and found that Mrs. Ida NJ. Tweedie
was a pretty we'll known customer. The
books showed that she had bought and paid
for about $4,000 worth Of goods during the
past year. Mrs. Tweedie Shove receipted
bills for about that amount Of purchases.
The amount of silk the woman is accused
of stealing is five yards; it is worth As cents
"a yard. At her home in Brooklyn last
night Mrs. Tweedie said that as she and
her son were going over some silk rem
nants to find a color suitable for an order
for painted powder pouches which she was
to fill one piece dropped accidentally across
her bag. At hat moment a woman de-
tective pounced on her and told her she
was under arrest, calling her by some
name which she could not recall and init
mating that she was a professional shop

RrnoklSn Trolley Man.

A petition In bankruptcy has been filed
here against Patrick II. Flynn, a well known
contractor, trolley man and capitalist,
formerly Of Brooklyn, who now resides at
Livingston Manor, Sullivan county. Rose

OF Boonto on, n. j., a creditor for 81 $3.50 on q
judgment obtained in New Jersey on Janu-
ary II, 1904, for work, fled the petition.
An attachment was issued in that suit, and
alevy was made OF twoa actions OF Mr.. Flynn
against the Jersey City Water Supply Com
pany. which actions were appraised at $40,
but nothing was realized thereon. 1t is
alleged that Mr. Flynn at Jersey City, be-
tween November 3 and to date, permitted

erty. transferred property to creditors to
prefer them, suffered creditors to obtain
preference through legal proceedings, paid
$4,5l6 cash TO Peter Hume, a creditor, on
November 4 last, and admitted In writing
his inability to pay his debts.
few wears ago Mr.. Flynn was reputedt to
be a millionaire. He was formerl y president
of the Nassau Street Railway Company of
BROOKLYN, was interested in other trolley
lines there and in The Bronx, was a direct or
in banks and trust companies and various
other corporations. In 1899 he W as a lead
ing spirit in the Flynn syndicate which
organized the Jersey City Water Supply
Company, which waste build reservoirs and
ain aaueduct to bring water from the hills
Of northern New Jersey to Jersey City, the
contract for which was over s7,Co0, 900.
Since then there has been much litigation
over the matter. Last year several Judg-
ments we're obtained in this city against
Mr.. Flynn and others, among them being
one in favor Of Russell Sage for Sl0s, 1852,
another in favor of Mr.. Sage for $54, 95l and
