TALES OF ROBBERY
FICTION OR FANCY
Major Sylvester Says Police
Get Many Strange
Reports.

BurgIafies and highway robberies are
not such common occurances in the
District OF Columbia after all, but are
simply reported TO the police by
good many persons who find this an
easy method to account for the dis
appearance OF money otherwise spent,
according to a statement made this
morning by MOTOR Sylvester
The man who wants to avoid paying
his bills PUSHES into a station house
and tells a story about being held up
by foOtpads; the husband who usually
turns hts pay envelope over to his wife
every weeks spends part Of the money
on the was home and hurries to a sta
ton house 70 tell how he was robbed.
the story is printed IN the papers and
everything is lovely at home-this IS the
explanation the police give for numer-
Gus robbery reports.
As Sylvester Sees It.
Major Sylvester said:
In every walk Of life we meet queer
and at times surprising experiences,
but the police hear and see more that
tends to question humanity than en-
ployes in any other line Of work
II seems strange, but nevertheless
u IS true that persons have dreams and
police for investigation. Dreaming of
robbers, they are awakened suddenly
with all the excitement and alarm that
would attach TO the genuine case, fire
reVOlVers at the supposed intruder, and
are reconciied by their mistake only
after close inquiry proved II such.
Il know or case where IL was re-
ported that a burglar knocked at the
/ bedroom door before entering to carry
of money and Valuables. There was
/ another instance Of a prominent off
c1al Of the Government who while expert
! encing the widest horrors in his sleep,
/ jumped out of bed and fought the bed
post, imagining that he was attacked
by burglars, and the exhaustion which
followed his midnight defense was as
great as If he had actually encountered
