VIRELLI WILL
 SEEK WARRANT
 FOR ALDERMAN
New Charge Against Junk Dealer Re. lates to Copper Stolen from Bridge. port Brass Company.
In City Court Two Brass Thieves Plead
 Guilty and Two Accused Demur = Four are Held in Total Bond of $6,000 Why Job Was Given to State Police

Harris Ruderman, the we'll known junk dealer, and his son, Charles, de murred in the City court this morning to the charge of statutory burglary, which embraces the alleged taking of hundreds of dollars worth of brass from the junk shop of Secretary of State M. H. Rogers. The demurrers were overruled by Judge Foster, and they were bound over in $1, 500 each, the amount fixed when they were ar rested yesterday.
 John Machlinski and Frank Strum- ski. employees of. MT. Rogers. who con- fess that they stole the brass for the Rudermans, pleaded guilty. They al- so were held for the Superior court in $1, 500 each
 Harris Ruderman's troubles will be further accentuated today when State Detective Frank Virel1i makes appli- cation to Prosecutor Delaney for a warrant for the junk dealers arrest upon the charge of receiving stolen copper, the property of the Bridgeport Bra sSf Company. When search was made in Ruderman's junk yard a sheet of brass was found, which was identi- fled by Secretary Webster as mater fal only made by his company, and of a kind not sold in Bridgeport. The junk yard is opposite the plant of the company, on Housatonfc avenue.
 The State police are much pleased over the success of their efforts in the affair of the brass thefts. According to the statement of Detective Virelli the services of several men were need ed before the job was done. In the beginning he was assisted by two other members of the State force. Lsa- ter Patrolman Bray was called in and finally Captain Gebrge Arnold of the detective bureau, who assisted in the work of breaking down the suspects, StrumSk and MachlinSki.
 The chase took Virelli to three cities, Bridgeport, Union City, and Yonkers. N. Y., where Strumski was arrested with the assistance of Lieut.. Detective Peter McGowan.
 It is also said that the State police feel much cause for congratulation in being invited to take charge of so, inn portant a case affecting a member of the State government as prominent as Secretary of State Rogers.
 There was, however, no purpose of disparaging the abilities of the local police. It was believed, it is said. that the Rudermans knew the local police almost as well as they knew each other.

MISSING MEMORY
 OF INJURED MAN
 MYSTIFIES POLICE
We'll Dressed Emergency Hospital Visi. tor Says He Remembers Nothing Since Fall From Automobile.

One of the most peculiar cases the police have had to deal with in some time is that of. George Scheurer, a young man, well dressed, who claims that he fell from an automobile last night and that he cannot remember anything else back of that time.
 He claims to reside at 697 E. 161st street, New York, and has given the police the names of several people that are in his mind, but he does not know whether he is acquainted with them or not. Inspector McCaffrey of the de- tective bureau in New York, upon the solicitation of Supt. Birmingham, is making an effort to locate some of the friends of Scheurer. The latter walk ed into the emergency hospital last night and asked pr. Kiernan to treat a scalp wound and a bruise on his thigh. He said that he had been au- tomobiling and had fallen off the runf ming board of the car while it was in motion. The car went on without him. He said that he did not know where he well off, but he had kept walking until he found the dispensary. He talked so strangely that the doctor turned the case over to the police. -'Dr. Mulholland" was the name of one of the men mentioned by Scheurer. Such a doctor, the owner of two auto mobiles, was found residing near Gen. tral Park He said he did not know Scheurer and that both of his cars were in the garage last night. George Wesley, another New York automo- bile owner, denied knowing anyone an- swering Scheurer's description or name

MADE $5.5O FRAUDING UNITED STATES AND GOT ONE YEAR IN JAIL
V0riaS, Who Assisted Lekas in NaturaIi.
 zation Scheme, Discharged Because of His Stupidity.

The making of a false statement for the purpose of obtaining a naturaliza- ton certificate. which he sold for s5.50 was the means of depriving John Iekas of this city of his liberty for a year. He was put to trial before Judge James P. Platt and a jury in the United States District Court, Hartford, on Tuesday, on the charge of making a false statement before William R. Shelton, clerk of the Super for court in Fairfield county, and yes terday afternoon the jury found him be imprisoned in the Fairfield county jail for one year. The man was for tunate that he was not sent to the United States prison in Atlanta, Ga, where judges of the United States courts in this section of the country, under the law, have to send all prison CTS who are committed for more than one year.
 Costas Vorias, alias Gust vorias, the man who ispersonated another Greek to whom Lekas sold the certificate, was allowed to go. Vorias is densely dull and it was the belief that he did what he was asked to do by Lekas because he knew no better, while Lekas is a. bright fellow. Vorias was arrested in Chicago and brought East, Tuesday by the grand jury he pleaded guilty to violating the Federal statute. He went on the stand a witness for the government and he was of mater ia.l assistance to the prosecution in bringing about the conviction of Le- kaS. LekaS was brought to the Fair field county jail last night

ROGERS WILL #, FILED TODAY
 FOR PROBATE
Estimated VaIue of Oil Magnate's Estate Placed at Nearly S75,OOO,o0O Trust to Provide Annuity of SI0O,sO0 For Widow.
Special from United Press,


 New York, May 2S.-With the excep- ton of a s1O,OO0 fund. the income of which is for the use of the primary and grammar schools of his native town of F,airhaven, Mass, the will of Henry H. Rogers, the Standard Oil magnate, disposes of an estate esti- mated to be worth nearly S75, ,000, 900, with no provision for charitable or educational institutions.
 The will, filed for probate today, is not surprising in this respect, however, because it was hinted at the time of MT. Rogers death last week that prac- tically the whole of his vast fortune would go to his immediately family.
 Aside from few minor bequests, chief of which is the creation of a fund from which the widow is to re- ceive an annuity of $100 900, the estate is divided into four trust funds, one for each of the four children. The and automobiles are left to the widow. A trust fund of not less than $2, 800 900 nor more than $3.OO0. 900 is created to provide for the widows annuity.
 Upon her death the property of which she has the use and her trust fund become part of the residuary es- tate. The Fairhaven. Mass, home of the testator is given to the son, Henry n Eoses H ooo ia sso tEnss ooo gregating $550.o0o. are created for the benefit of relatives. The income from these trusts is to be paid to the bene- ficiaries during their lives and on their deaths the principal of the trust re- vertS to the residuary estate.
 A bequest of $100 600 is given to Fair haven as a permanent fund, the in come from which is to go to the pri- mary and grammar schools of the town. After providing for these be- quests. the residuary estate is divided into four trusts, one for the benefit of each of his children. As the children attain the age of 40 years, they are each to receive one-half of the trust held for their benefit. the other half to be held in. trust during their lives. But the children are each given the power to dispose of their trust by their last will and testament, and in default of such disposition the principal of the trust goes to their heirs-at-law. The executors of the will are the testator's. son, H. IF. Rogers. Jr.;; John W. Ster- ling of New York; w. P. Winsor of F>afrhaven, Mass, and the Farmers Loan 6 Trust Company of New York
 In his will MT. Rogers asks the trus- tees to make his~ con president of the vfrgfnfan railroad, And his son-in-law, Urban Broughton. chairman of the board of directors.

DISORDER REIGNS WHEN AMBROSE
 IS ACCUSED

President Ambrose to-day pounded to
 plinters the table used by him as the presiding officer of the National Sla- vonic Society. His most strenuous efforts to preserve order were hardly gate Joe Hill of Chicago, and his fol- lowers, who are opposing the admin fstration of the society, presented their claims as to the conditions which they aIiege are existing in the organization The efforts of the f1libuSterS were how ever, uniformly defeated, although the delay created by their several motions of a dflatory nature means that the convention will probably be unable to adjourn tomorrow as the delegates had expected it would.
 A Hill delegate said to a, Farmer re- porter to-day that they would compel President Ambrose to debate some of the charges. by making a. complaint plaints. The charges are that within two years the organization has ex- pended $10,0OO for badges; that a Mrs. Hornak. Stockdale, Pa. has not receiv- ed a proper accounting in the settle rneut of a death claim- and there are several counts of alleged misconduct.
 Hill claims that Judge Miller of the Pennsylvania Court or Special SeS- Eious heard some of the charges brought against the society's officers, tfon for settlement with the under standing that the charges would be brouxht back to him if there was no settlement. He intimates that the of71cers are trying to evade clearing 7ID of the matter at this convention.
