TAKEN I'M BOGUS MONEY CASE
Detectives Make Three Arrests
at Point of Revolvers.

With the arrest last night OF three
men in a saloon at No. Us Flushing
avenue. Brooklyn the police and Secret
Service authorities believe they have
broken up a gang which has been SWIM
ding business men in Manhattan,
Rrooklvn and New Jersey since 1907 by
means of a fake counterfeit money
scheme.
Word was passed to the government
agents recently that three men were
searching in Brooklyn for man who
was willing to spend at least $4,000 for
about four times that amount in spuri-
Gus paper currency. Otto Klink. a
Secret Service officer. was detailed to the
case. He secured introductions to the
three. to whom he described himself as
wealthy real estate man.
Klink reported yesterday that he
thought he would get his men last night
and four Brooklyn detectives, under
Lieutenant McCauley, and tour de-
tectives of the Secret Service took posi-
tions outside the saloon. At signal
from klink they entered a room over the
liquor store. where they found the pris-
oners, and forced them to surrender al
the points of their revolvers. They said
they were Samuel DRESSER, former de-
tective in Austria and the possessor Of
prison records: Boris Pedalsky, who has
used several aliases, the police say,
and Solomon Strumlaufer. They were
locked up

COMMENTS ON SUGAR CASE
Company Wins Two Main Points,
Secretary Freeman Saws.

j. H. Il reefnan, the new secretary OF ING
American sugar Refining Company. com
mented yesterday on the decision of ex-
Judge Morgan ]. O'Brien, as referee, III
the suit OF the company against the CITY
TO enJoin the latter from collecting tne
sum OF 10000 alleged to be wrongfuliS
charged Tor the use of water
lhlS suit Is one of our inheritances,
said Mr.. Freeman THE statement as
mace by some of the newspapers that Dy
Judge y Briens decision the city has re-
covered the sum of S525, 600 is erroneous
1T Is true that Judge O'Brien has dis
missed our plea for an injunction, but ne
expressly fnds that the charge of the
city of $4,000 for water used by us is
probably three times what it should be, as
based upon a miscalculation of the amount
OF water alleged to have teen misappro-
prlated, as well as upon an illegal rate for
the water assessed by the Commission OF
Water Supply. He believes that there has
been some misappropriation OF water. but
cannot determine how much
IF you will read his decision in full you
will find that Judge O'Brien decided In our
favor and against the city In the matter
of the amount of the charge. for he said in
these words: I am unable to determine
upon this record the precise amount OF
water which was in fact misappropriated;
am satisfied, however, that the amount
was much less than the defendants esti-
mate the defendant being the city,

Ions per day was much closer the truth
than the DEFENDANTS estimate. but / have
no power to make a dismissal of the COM
plant conditioned upon the reduction Of
defendants demand
Nor does il follow. according 70 Judge
O'Brien, that the American Sugar Re-
fnfng Company was guilty of any nisap-
preparation of water. for he supports our
contention absolutely when he says: The
connections with the city mains were all
old. and long antedsted TIE acquisition OF
the property by the American Sugar Re
1ning Company. The company took the
PREMISES as they found them. meters, by
masses and all. In the absence of evidence
TO support IT, cannot impute any fraud to
the plaintiff by reason OF the installation of
these by-passes by some previous owner
This is unquestionably true The Ameri
can Sugar Refining Company took over the
Rrooklyn and Havemsyers e. Elder plants
from former owners. 1t is distinctly part
If the record that this company did not
conceive the alleged fraud. Regardless OF
the fact that our suit for an injunction is
dismissed. our two main points of conten-
tion-namely, that the city's charge for
uater used is excessive and that the fraud
did not originate with this company-are
sustained by Judge O'Brien.''

The Cunard liner Carpathia arrived here
yesterday from the Mediterranean with a
variety of diseases on board. She had no
cholera cases, but scarlet fever wrought as
much harm to the children of the steerage,
perhaps as cholera would have done
Rive children died, and their bodies were
consigned to the sea. The Carpathia left
Trieste on October q. After leaving Mes
sina scarlet fever made its appearance, and
three children succumbed to it. Later the
disease claimed another victim, when the

While fighting scarlet fever, DR.. Scow-
croft the ships surgeon, suddenly found
himself in the midst OF an epidemic of
measles. When the Carpathia came into
Quarantine on Thursday night thirty-four

The Carpathia also had two cases of
erysipelas and one Of typhoid.
Fffty-three children exposed to the con-
tagious diseases Were removed to Hoffman

t-rippen, aged eighty-three years. father OF
pr. I3awley II. Crippen, under sentence Of
death IN London for the murder Of Belle
Elmore, died to-day in this city friendless
and penriless. His death, due to the IN
1irrnities OF age. was fastened by grief over
his sons crime.
Death occurred In lodging house. and
the only person at the aged mans bed
side was the woman who managed the
place. Hawley Crippen, a son Of DR.. Grip
pen. was with his grandfather during the
night, but left the house before death came.
Dr.. Crippen was the sole support of his
aged father. and since the sons flight from
London with Ethel Leneve and his arrest
In Canada, some months ago. no remittance
had come.
Facing actual starvation. the father was
helped by a few persons whom he had

rent free. and a restaurant keeper at whose
place he had been accustomed TO buy his
meals continued to supply them without
charge

6OMPERS AND NEGROES
Denies That He Wants Them Elk
Guided from Unions.

St Louis. Nov. 16.-President Samuel
GompeTs in 2 speech at the dinner of the
American Federation of Labor last night
advocated the elimination Of negroes from
the labor unions Of America. He said the
supremacy of the Caucasian race in the
unions should be maintained
There are S.opoet4 negroes in the United
States said Mr.. Gompers, and to my
r1ird they cannot al be expected 10 under
stand the philosophy of human rights. l
Go not believe they should be permitted
TO join our unions, lacking. as they do, for
the most part. the very necessary knowl-
edge of what our unions really stand for
in the economic world
President Gompers just before adjourn
nent today said that an incorrect IN
ference had been drawn by the newspapers
from his last nights speech. He denied
that he wanted negroes eliminated from
labor unions, and said the impression ne
intended 10 convey was that the condition
of the negroes as a class made their
problem difficult TO handle.

Isaac s. and Manning G. Phillips, father

at No IS West 18th street. were arrested
Yesterday by Marshal Henkel's deputies,
charged with conspiracy to defraud the
United States Government by the under
valuation and under classification OF
woollen imports from France. c. E. Whit
ney, assistant United States attorney in
charge of the case, said that the total
importations affected amounted to more
than 100000.
When Marshal Henkel arraigned the two
men before United States Commissioner
Shields Frederick NJ. Czaki, counsel for
the prisoners, asked that bail be fixed at a
low figure. Mr.. Whitney objected, and
added that besides being guilty of under
valuations, the younger man had actually
smuggled in goods as baggage on his return
from France He asked that bail be fixed
at $4,000. and this was supplied by a
surety company.
Howard D. Esterbrook, a special agent
of the customs department, laid the infor-
nation in the case, which charges that on
June II, 1910, l. & NJ. Phillips entered for
import at this port two cases, containing
three coats and one won1an's black dress,
at a valuation of l.341 francs, while the
real value was 21l5.2O francs. This infor-
nation he added, was obtained from a

NO RETIREMENT FOR sCHIFF
Report Concerning Kuhn-Loeb Head
Denied in Good Quarters.

a report that Jacob II. Schiff, head of the
barking house of Kuhn, Loeb & Co, was
about to retire from active business was
said in authoritative quarters yesterday to
be without foundation.
Mr.. Schiff. in addressing a meeting of
the Young Mems Hebrew Association few
evenings ago, said that he was growing old
and some day would have to lay down the
cares of business. but that this did not
worry him. as he haG dear and valued
friend with whom to leave the manage
ment of his affairs. These remarks were
twisted to make it appear that he had
stated he was to retire in the near future.
Mr.. Schiff is sixtv-three years old. and
Wall Street feels that he still has many
years of active business life ahead of him.
