The police said the young man was

station he gave his name as Frank

Johnson and Andrew Carr entered

10 the shirt counter he strolled. too.
He told the police that while Johnson
concentrated
with his funny stories Carr showed
the shirts under his capacious overcoat.
Every now and then, he said, they
would switch, and Carr would talk
while Johnson put in a stock OF
pajamas.
The detective allowed the men 70
leave the store and get as far as Madi-
son avenue and Both street before he
laid hands on them. He held fast to
Carr. but Johnson got away and ran
TO Fifth avenue and then north. lie
turned west through 9th street, with
a crowd behind him and larger one

IN behind him and stopped him at

At the West Both street police sta

WAR DEPARTMENT IGNORED
No Bond Required and General
Wood Asks House and Senate
to Put an End to Work
-S13,500 Still Due.
IFrom The rrIbnne Bureau- ]

Washington. Dec. 16.-The military
authorities have had under considera-
ton lately the remarkable conditions
which have attended the contract held
for nineteen years by a. II. Emery, o.
Connecticut. for the delivery Of T.
inch disappearing gun carriage.
This is one OF the most remarkable
transactions ever undertaken by the
government on the authority Of Con
gress. From beginning TO end there
appears to have been no consultation
with the War Department regarding
this mount The War Department.
moreover, possesses no information as
10 the progress which Mr.. Emery has
made since 1893. when Congress made
the initial appropriation for a gun car
riage Of his design.
In that period an aggregate sum Of
nearly S2JO.OOO has been appropriated.
This has been paid to Mr. Emery at
intervals without any formality other
than the transfer TO him of "A check
until all but S13.JO0 has been disbursed.
The remainder IS held in the public
Treasury and may be paid TO him at
any time. Apparently there has been
no inspection OF Mr.. Emery's work
and he has been called upon for no
reports on what he has accomplished.
Another remarkable feature of the
ic tho Cnnria1 ~
Mr.. Emery from the furnishing Of the
usual bond, as a guarantee Of the full
flment of the contract. This was done
by special authority Of Congress also.
Every year the report Of the Board OF
Ordnance and Fertilization has men
toned the circumstances, and recently
II was determined by General Leonard
Wood. chief OF staff and president OF
gress should be specially directed TO
the situation.
In letter which has been sent to
the House and Senate Appropriations
Committees, it is recommended that
the contract with Mr.. Emery be re-
voked. Attention is called to the fact
that in the almost twenty years which
have elapsed since Mr.. Emery began
his work, other designs for gun car
riages have been developed have served
their time in the coast defence. and
have been superseded by more perfect
appliances, while Mr. Emery's task is
still unfinished.
1t always has been more or less Of
a mystery to the military authorities
how Mr. Emery succeeded in obtaining
this favor, and they are waiting with
considera bic interest to learn whether
the recommendation Of the War De-
partment, which would relieve Mr..
Emery OF further obligation. will have
any effect

DOESN'T CONTEST DIVORCE
Porter Tells of F. Augustus
Heinze's Trip to Denver with
a Woman Whose Pict-
ure He Identifies.
LRy Telesraph to The rrIbun. J

Ncwburg, Dec. 1G.-The second high
est alimony ever recorded in New York
State was allowed Mrs. Bernice G.
Heinze. of New York City. to-day,
when Justice Arthur S. Tompkins. OF
the Supreme Court, granted her di-
vorce from her husband. Fritz Angus
tus Heinze. once known as the Copper
King" Under the provisions of the
decree Mr. Heinze is to give his wife
81 600 month alimony and is TO pay
the rent Of her apartments in New
York. amounting to 1898 month, un-
I'll the present lease expires, which will
be in two or three years. Mrs. Heinze
also receives the custody of the cou-
PIES child. +. Augustus Heinze, jr.,
born on December q. 1911, and the
father is directed to pay for the lads
education after the boy reaches the
age Of five years.
Only one witness, n negro porter
named Crocker. employed on sleeping
car running on the Denver e Los An
gelcs division OF the Union Pacific
Railroad, was sworn at the hearing in
the Supreme Court. A photograph Of
Mr.. HeinZe and an unidentified woman,
alleged to be a Mrs. Lavelle, a chorus
girl was shown to the witness. The
picture was snapped In Denver, while
Heinze was visiting there i'm December
last
The porter said he saw the man in
the photograph on his train at 1l:5j
n. m., September 26 last He said the
man had engaged a stateroom with
upper, lower and side berths In COM
pany with this man. the witness tes-
titled, was another man. who went from
Denver 10 ogden, Utah. AT that point,
the witness asserted. the man not in
the picture got off and a woman got
on. The woman, said Crocker, occu-
MED the same compartment as the man
in the photograph. She was, he said,
the same one who appeared in the
photograph with Heinze.
Immediately after the negro porter
completed his testimony, Benjamin +.
Spellman, representing the plaintiff,
presented an affidavit showing default
on the part of the defendant, and stated
that an agreement had been reached
with Heinze relative to the alimony
and custody of the child. As Heinze
did not appear to contest his wife's
suit, the court promptly signed 'he
decree.
Heinze testified at the hearing before
Justice Tompkins, in Nyack. on Sar-
urday. He was shown letter received
by Mrs. Heinze, containing a news
paper clipping referring to Heinze's
visit to Denver with strange woman.
and denied that he sent it. The news.
paper clipping said that f. Augustus
Heinze was in Denver with a young
woman.
