ALBANY, March 2o.-The decision of the

day affirmed by the Court Of Appeals. That

ROBBED STORES CUSTOMERS.
Police Say Delivery Boy Confessed to New
Scheme or Plumber.


Herman German, IT, and James Hussey.
10, who said they lived at the Boys Lodging
House, 225 West Fifty-ifth street, were
locked up in the West Forty-seventh street
police station last night as suspicious
persons" They are believed by the police
to have robbed a department store Of
several thousand dollars worth of stuff.
Detective Fitzpatrick Of the West Forty
seventh street police station found the
boys in a Ninth avenue pawnshop where
they we're trying to sell two new umbrellas.
They couldn't account for having them. 30
Fitzpatrick took them to the station house.
When they were searched a badge such as
those worn by delivery boys was found on
Hussey. TIT badge bore the name OF the
store and al employee was sent up by re-
quest Of the police.
He said hat several thousand dollars
worth of stuff had disappeared from the
store in the last few months n no trace
had beer found Of the thieves.
Hussey, according to the police, admitted
that he had been employed at the place
until ten days ago. He said that he worked
as a wagon boy and that after a delivery
was made and the receipt signed he would
rush back to the hous and get the goods on
the pretext that he had delivered the wrong
bundle.
He refused to say how much he had car
ried away in this manner or to implicate
any of the other boys. He said that all
the stolen stuff had been pawned. AS the
umbrellas nave the stores mark the charge
against the boys was changed to larceny.

RACING RECEIPTS BILL.
Measure 10 INCREASE Share OF Agricultural
Societies Advanced in Senate

ALBANY, March 20.-The farmer intends
to profit by the strife between the race
tracks and the ministers over the effort
OF the clergymen throughout the State to
have the Legislature enact the Cassidy
Lansing bill, prohibiting bets on horse
races. 1t developed tonight that the oppo-
sition to the bill was copper riveted through
the intimation Of the representatives Of
the racing associations that the percentage
of gross receipts Of the racing associations
paid each year to the agricultural societies
would be increased.
Accordingly, the representatives of agri-
cultural societies here at once had Senator
Coggeshall introduce q bill increasing the
percentage from Ave to eight Of the gross
receipts, and to-day the bill was reported
favorably in the Senate and ordered to a
third reading. The five per cent. tax
now amounts to 5000, 900 a year. Joseph
Auerbach, on behalf Of the Jockey Club,
was here to-day in conference with the
representatives of the agricultural socie-
ties and demurred to such a big increase
as 8 per cent, which!would amount to over
500, 600 a year. The matter Is still in dis
pute, with the representatives OF honest
farmers refusing to accept less.

sEAsIDE ELL AMENpED.
Mayors Measure tORstabiIsh q Colony for
Poor and Sick Badly Crippled.

ALBANY, March 20,-Mayor .McClellan's
biz providing for a seaside colony for the
sick poor and convalescents of New York
city when reached on the second reading
calendar in the Assembly to-day was put
over until tomorrow. The Assembly
Cities Committee has done some tinkering
with the bill so as to reader it practically
imperative.
The committee knew that some heed
must be paid to the demands Of New York
city for a colony of this kind and did some
%straddling. As a sop to the people OF Mas
sau county. who oppose the bill, they
amended the Mayors bill SO that the city
is empowered to spend only 81 800, 900, in
stead Of 81 5oO 5000, as the bill at first pro-
vided. Grave doubts are entertained as
to whether anything can be accomplished
with 81 500, 900. This, it is thought, will be
insufficient to even acquire the site neces-
sary for the colony, and subsequent legisla-
ton will have to be secured to permit OF
the erection Of buildings.
Representatives, of the New York city
administration say that the bill, as it now
stands, is worse than no bill at all. 1t
permits the starting but not the completion
Of the philanthropic object aimed at.

Senator LHommedieu Shows II by Having

ALBANY, March 2o.-Senator L'Hom-
medieu to-day plainly gave evidence that
newspaper criticism Is unpleasant to states
men. He became angry over Unpublished
charges that he was ~endeavoring to per-
petuate a Niagara Falls power monopoly
by repeating the charters Of several smaller
companies, leaving only two companies
the right to generate power from the waters
Of the Niagara River. Hesaid inthe Senate
to-day that he had been criticized for in
Producing bills increasing the number of
power companies which could generate
power, and now, when he tried to limit the
amount Of water that could be taken for
power purposes, he was also criticized.
Il don't propose to be ground between
the upper and neither millsstones, b he said:
and l therefore move that the enacting
clause OF the bill be stricken out"
His request was acceded to by the Senate
without comment and the bill was killed.

SPANIEL SAVED THE SILVER.
Burglars Put to Flight at Augustine J.
Smiths HOuae on Lexington Ave.

Smiths House on Lexington AVE
Burglars who entered early yesterday
morning the house Of augustine j. Smith,
a broker, living at sac Lexington avenue,
were. careful to cut all the telephone wires
in the house before going to work. Hut
they didn't reckon on the wireless bark
of Mr., Smiths clever young cocker spaniel,
a dog with a fine nose for burglars and
plenty Of eand to back 1t up.
The bu~rglars-there we're two of. them
unlocked the swinging ladder Of a fire
escape next door and climbed in by a rear
window Of the parlor fioor of Mr., Smiths
house. in addition to cutting the wires
they unbolted and opened the front door,
leaving q clear line of retreat. Then they
collected alb the silver and valuable brlc-a-
brac and arranged IL in piles for convenient
packing.
! Newt they sta rted to clean up the valuables
on the second floor and then the spaniel's
barb got to work. Mr., Smith awoke to see
two large men backing away from a very
lively dog who Yves doing his best to connect
with their trousers. When Mr.. smith
jumped out of bed the burglars Didn't
stop even for a parting kick at the dog,
but ran downstairs and out the front door.
When Mr.. Smith tried to call Up Police
Headquarters to tell about his visitors
he did a little gentle cussing at the telephone
service before he discovered the severed
wires. Later he found the neatly arranged
bundles OF silver on the first floor and
promised the faithful spaniel the choicest
bone in town. He estimated that the silver
and b~ric-a-brac abandoned by the thieves
are worth several thousand dollars.
The room which the men entered Is the
sleeping apartment Of Mr.. Smiths six
year-old daughter Ethel. The child was
awakened by the passag e Of the men through
her room, but not enough to realize that
they were strangers. The only thing
carried away by the burglars WIS a stickpin
valued at about $50.

NEW MORTGAGE TAX BILL.

alton Committee has reported favorably
the bill Of Assembly Bowling (Rep., Kings,
which amends the present mortgage tax
law by substituting a five mill recordingtax
for the present five mill annual tax on mort
cages.
This action is taken to indicate that the
bill will pass the Legislature and be ap-
proved in the executive chamber. Gov.
Higgins has not announced his position in
regard to the matter, but in his annual
message to the Legislature he asked that
the question be considered carefully. In
view of the amount, that the stock transfer
tax is raising ANNUALLY it is not believed
that the loss resulting from the repeal of
the mortgage tax law and the substitution
Of a. recording fee will be felt.

This prompted her to throw the I've in Ihcy's
