PROFESSIONAL TRAMPS A
MAJORITY IN BREADCINES

New York. Feb. S.-Robert w. Heb
berd, commissioner of charities of New
York, takes the stand with Special
department of immigration. that a
majority Of the men In the breadlines
of the city are professional tramps, un-
deserving of aid. In an address to
the members of the Y M. c. A In
Brooklyn. yesterday, he declared the
tramp and yagrant are a menace to
civilization and he urged stringent
treatment TO regulate them. He en-
dorsed the movement for the establish
ment of colonies by the state where
such men can be put to work, bill for
the creation of which is already before
the legislature.
"a conservative estimate of the
number of unemployed In New York
City today" he said. "is 100000. OF
these, perhaps $4,000 are trade union
men temporarily out Of work. These
men do not come to the department
OF charities. They generally have
money saved up to tide them over the
hard times. For that reason, the men
who frequent the breadline and the
municipal lodging houses are not fair
samples of the unemployed. Not one
in twenty Of the men who come to US
is willing to work We have many po-
sitions open In our department. and
vet they won't take and hold them.
For the lower class Of the unemploy-
ed-the vagrants and the breadliners-
We must adopt stringent methods. A
farm colony has been tried In Ger
many and Switzerland with great sue
cess and am confident 1t would work
here. We should have the power to
keep these men at work in the colony
for two years II necessary"

upon the street He pleaded guilty and
was given a fine of IS.

and admitted his guilt. asking, how

tion necessary and imposed fine o.

j. c. Slade was charged with the
ownership OF a team found standing
unhitched. The defendant pleaded
rot guilty, and Officer Reast was call
ed to the stand. The latter stated that
he had discovered the team standing
in front of local place of business
and, upon returning half an hour af-
terward, the team was still there. He
said that he then stepped into the
rig and drove away This brought i'm
mediate results, Mr.. Slade running out
and asserting his ownership of the rig
The arrest then followed.
The defendant was asked to explain
his side of the case. and proceeded to
tell how he had allowed a young boy
TO take the rig to earn little money
The boy had inadvertently left the
team standing unhitched. The de
fendant, therefore. considered that he
should not be held responsible. The
court thought best to refer the mat
ter to the city attorney and the order
was made.

IL will be remembered that right
after the fight with Papke. which was
lost by Ketchel, rumor was spread
broadcast that Stanley Ketchel was
dying as a result of his beating That
rumor gained considerable credence In
Michigan, and especially in Grand
Rapids and Detroit, where Ketchel's s
parents live.
Ketchels mother heard the story
and was greatly worried over 1t, She
telegraphed to San Francisco to find
out the truth or falsity of the report.
O'Connor received the telegram In the
absence of Ketchel and wired the
mother that Stanley was all right and
that the report was untrue That was
all very we'll, but O'Connor sent the
message collect.
Ketchel himself is the soul Of gen
erosity and especially where his moth
er is concerned, Ketchel took O'Con-

willing to waste any coin on him or

Picks Langford to
Defeat Mr.. Johnson

New York, Feb. 5.-Tom O'Rourke,
one oil the best judges of pigilistic al
1alrs, who predicted the victory of Jack
Johnson over Tommy Burns, now goes
on record as saying that Sam Lang
lord Will defeat Johnson when they
meet In London on May "a,
l saw Langford and Johnson box
two years ago In Boston" says
o Rourke. "On that occasion. Lang
ford, who weighed only 1873 pounds,
had Johnson down for the count In the
second round. The referee took his
time In counting the seconds, SO that
johnson was able 10 recover by the
time he got up. After that Johnson
took no chances and won on points at
the end OF fifteen rounds. Langford
can do 158 now and he is far better
pugilist than ever before. He Is very
much like Joe Walcott in build and
style, is a terrific hitter and Is also
clever. He can give Johnson about
40 pounds In weight and four inches In
height and still win, for the reason
that he can hit harder than the new
heavyweight champion and can take
all the punishment that the letter can
hand to him.
Il think that Sam Fitzpatrick made
mistake in accepting a $4,000 purse
Tor the Johnson-Langford mill, because
he could get $4,000 here and would
also be able to put the fight off until
next fall Johnson, in the meantime,
could tour Great Britain at $1,000 a
week. which would be real easy
money.
DO | think Jeffries can get into his
old condition? Maybe. but If Lang
ford beats Johnson you can rest as
sured that Jefries will never fight
again. Jeffries did not care to tackle
Walcott when he was good, so It's a
cinch that he would not agree to meet
Langford, who is even more danger

New York, Feb. S.-Although he had

a boy of 19 years, who said that he

Ark, said that he had spent $4,000
within three months. This informa-

had been arrested last night on the
complaint Of the manager of local
hotel who charges that young Hitler
passed worthless check at the hotel.
The boy had recently been staying at
the Hotel Astor and has cashed sew

are worthless. according to the po-
lice. A bank book showing an ac-
count of $500 was found upon him. 1t
was issued by the National Bank OF
Commerce of Dallas, Texas. Hitler
