"IS THAT YOU,

SAID THIEF
COOlly Answers Woman and
RObS Rouse--B Burglars Get
in Several Places.

Four robberies were committed IN
the Fourth Precinct section last night,
and the thieves managed to get away
with money, jewelry, clothing and fau-
Gets worth several hundred dollars. The
most peculiar theft took place in the
home of William III. Moran, so Farley
avenue, and William Moran was the
principal victim. Shortly after 1 o'clock
this morning Mrs. Moran saw youth
or man pass through room adjoining
the one in which she slept and she
asked, Willie, is that you?"
Sure" responded the intruder.
This did not satisfy Mrs. Moran, for
she suspected that the voice did not
sound like that of her son, and she
got up and aroused the other members
of the family, and all hands, armed.
conducted a search for the unwelcome
visitor, but failed to find any trace
of him. An investigation showed that
Mrs. Moran's gold watch and chain,
several articles of clothing and $11 in
money, besides an honorary medal
which was awarded young Moran In
1904 at st. James's parochial
school, were stolen. 1t was found
that the thief gained an entrance
through a rear window which he man
aged to force open. A second bold rob-
berry occurred at the home of Frank
Hassner. carpenter, of IS Chadwick
avenue. The thief managed to carry
off silver watch, coat, penknife, rule,
two pencils and As cents. all on chair
within reach of the victims bed
The Hassners occupy the first floor,
it being a two-family house, and they
found that the thief gained an entrance
through rear window, using a small
instrument to push back the latch.
The third robbery was a raid on the
cloak establishment of Philip Spies, 174
Springfield avenue, some time after l
o'clock this morning. This was also a
window trick, and the thief managed to
get away with twenty-five women's
scarfs valued at SIS, and six white suits
valued at $40. The cash register was
broken open, but no cash was taken.
In this case the thief had to jump sew
eral rear fences to get near the window.
The other robbery was that of a guam
tity of brass and nickel-plated faucets
from house in the course of construc-
ton ct Clinton and Jelliff avenues. The
loot was valued at $75.

SESSION.
Reports Show Good Progress
of ;OrganizatiOn--Has AL
most 5000 Members.

Delegates from all the Catholic Benevo-
lent Legion councils in the State gathered
here today at the twenty annual
convention of the New Jersey State Coun-
ell Of the order, which was opened this
morning at the Catholic Institute, in New
street, where the first local council was
instituted a quarter of century ago.
About two hundred delegates, represent
ing fifty councils in this State. were
present when State President james j..
Butler called the delegates to order. In
his address Mr.. Butler stated the organiza-
tlon in this State had met with great sue
cess numerically and financially during the
past year, and the indications pointed to
brighter report for the coming year.
While there had been many deaths of
the members in the various councils, the
president said yet they were offset by a
substantial addition Of new members on
the roll book.
At the present time he said, there were
nearly 5000 Legionites In this State, which
he claimed was big showing for New
Jersey, which was the home for so many
fraternal organizations
Mr.. Butler urged all the delegates to
carry back to their councils his request
that every member makes il his business
this year 20 get at least one new member
Mr.. Butler also suggested several resolu-
tionS for the Improvement of the organiza-
ton in this State. which will be acted on
late this. afternoon
State Secretary John ], Richmond read
his report, which. like that of the presl-
dent showed a large increase In member
ship, and that all of the councils were
In good financial standing, which augured
well for the future success of the legion.
Joseph j. Lambrecht, State treasurer, In
his report stated that all of the obliga-
tlons of the organization were paid, and
that there was a nice little balance.
Besides that all councils in the State
showed no Indebtedness and snug bank
accounts.
The convention adjourned at 1 o'clock
for dinner at Eisner's in Market street,
where the annual banquet will also be
held this evening at O'clock. All mem
bers are invited TO attend the banquet to-
night.
It was said that the present officers are
very likely TO be reelected this year,
because of the good work they have done
during the past year.
1t was expected that Richard b. Tippett.
supreme president of the c. B. L.. would
be present at todays convention, but in a
letter he stated that 1t was impossible for
him to do so because Of important business
matters that he had TO attend to in Bal
timore.
He expressed his good wishes for the
and he hoped that the future would oe

SUIT TO DUST
LEHIGH FROM
BASIN.
Action Begun to Test Title
to Valuable Water Front
Property in Jersey City.
[specIal to the Eveplng Star ]

TRENTON, Oct. S.-Attorney-Gen-
eral Robert H. McCarter today filed
in the Court of Chancery suit against
the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company
for the purpose of compelling the rail-
road company to show by what rights
it claims title to certain land situated
in Jersey City which is known as THE
Basin of 1857" or as more commonly
called the Morris Canal Basin.
The suit nominally seeks to set aside
the conveyance of the property to the
Lehigh Valley Railroad Company of
New Jersey, as assignee of the Morris
Canal and Banking Company. The
property lies north of the Central Rail-
road and is used by the Lehigh Rail
road for wharfage purposes.
The Attorney General claims that
the basin is not riparian land because
it is not land over which the tide ebbs
and flows. For that reason it is con-
tended the riparian commissioners had
no authority to make a grant of it in
fee to the Lehigh Valley Company.
The Attorney General also claims
that the railroad company had no au-
thority to accept the grant, that if the
lands were riparian lands the Lehigh
Valley was not an assignee of the
Morris Canal and Banking Company
within the meaning of the riparian act,
and therefore a grant of land to it
is void.
The suit is the result of joint reso-
luton passed by the Legislature calling
upon the Attorney-General to bring a
suit against the railroad and ask the
Court of Chancery to decree what
rights the State of New Jersey had in
"The Basin of 1867"
The information is of great length
and goes into every legislative enact
ment since 1924 involving the lands in
question, and recites in detail the grant
given by the riparian commissioners
to the company.
After this Information the complaint
shows that the Lehigh Railroad Com
pany is now in possession of the land
concerned, and that this being the fact
the Court of Chancery has full power
and authority to determine the legality
of the rights by which the railroad
sompany holds the land.
The matter was, in the usual form,
referred to a special master to inquire
into the matter
