BOY NOW ADMITS
EIGHTY THEFTS
Joseph Kaiser Amazes Police by
His Astounding Revelations
of R0bberies.

Sitting coolly in a cell at police head
quarters and confessing to robbery
after robbery, once a hint Is given him
as to what is wanted, Joseph Kaiser,
the 1s-year-old youth arrested early
yesterday morning by Special Police
man Charles Caffrey. has simply
astounded the members Of the detective
bureau by the extent of his operations
during the past few years. Kaiser, who
lives at 10 John street. Harrison, has
already confessed to more than eighty
petty robberies, and the police believe
that he has not yet reached the end Of
his string. +.
Scores of petty thefts in all sections
of he city, which have puzzled the
detective bureau ever since their COM
mission, have been cleared up by Kali
ser, who gives the information in a
puzzling to the detectives as is the fact
that he managed to escape detection
for so long a time.
During all the time that he was loot
ing flats and stores throughout the
city. he gave his relatives and friends
the impression that he was working on
one of the railroads entering the city
and that his duties required him to
arise at an early hour in the morning.
He's a cool customer" said one of
the detectives today, and it's a good
thing for all concerned that he did not
go into the game for bigger stakes.
