Got Him and Others In Jail.

Little George Cunningham was hurry

years old-under his arm when he was
stopped by Detectives Falvey and Rob

What have you got there. sonny"

MRS. TOM PIERCE
MAY TELL THINGS
ABOUT SOCIETY
Safe With Friends Here, She
Is Said to Blame Brother
for Troubles.

Sensational disclosures. involving per-
sons prominent in New York society,
are threatened in connection with the
case of Mrs. Tom" Pierce. the ac-
compllshed horsewoman, whose con-
hnement in sanitarium near Bridge
port, Conn. and subsequent release was
reported in the Evening World yester-
day.
Miss Adele Richie, the actress. who
says she has been deputed to speak for
Mrs. Pierce. declared to-day that Mrs.
Pierce is now at the home of a physi-
the young horsewoman's family denied
that she had come to New York.
Miss Richie made no secret of the
fact that Mrs. Pierce holds her brother,
Jacob C. Rogers. responsible for her
Incarceration in the Connecticut insti-
tuition, and that she considers she has
been grievously wronged.
Mrs. Pierce" said Miss Richie,
will be very glad 10 drop the proceed
ings If her brother acts properly to-
ward her and does not make the ac-
ton necessary. If she is forced to
prosecute further, Mrs Pierce has said
that she will tell things which will
cause much concern in so-called society
circles. $50
The whole trouble is due to vicious
enemies of Mrs. Pierce, who wrote
anonymous letters about her to her
brother. Her brothers reports of her
drinking to excess while in my company
are erroneous"
The announcement that Mrs. Pierce
had been confined In a sanitarium
caused great surprise in this city and in
hunting circles on Long Island. She
lived for time al Hampstead, and on
one occasion created a sensation by ap-
pearing in the streets attired in men $
riding clothes. She was known as one
of the most daring women riders who
ever hunted with the Meadow Brook
hounds.
Mrs. Pierce alleged in habeas corpus
proceedings in Bridgeport Wednesday
that she had been forcibly taken from
New York by her brother and placed in
the Connecticut institution. The case
was supposed to have been compromised
on her promise to go to a retreat of
her own choosing and remain there UNI
til such time as she should recover from
severe nervous breakdown.

Egrmayer and CHI. Chavet went

his room in the rear of the
Schultz land office. He was
soon followed by George Egr

 Yesterday.

Chicago, Nov 1.-The new uniform bill of lading approved by the inter state commerce committee went ino effect on 4l6 railroads in the official classification territory to-day. Hereaft- CT every shipment of freight in the territory east of the Massassippi and north of the Ohio must be made upon the basis of the new form, unless a shipper, obJectlng to the terms, agrees to pay 10 per cent, more. than the regular freight rates. It was custom ary to charge 20 per cent. extra on such shipments not under the old bill of ladlng. The new form Is believed to be universally acceptable. It has a distinctive color, yellow adopted At the suggestion of the American Bankers association for all "order" bills of lad ing, which are negotiable and enable a shipper to obtain an advance pay ment through a banker It is through bills of lading that q record Is kept of the country's commercial activity.
