w. L. Brown, Arrested Here
as Swindler, Is Found to
Have Criminal Record

Through the National Association
of Criminal Identification, Lieuten-
ant Ebert, acting captain of detec-
tives, learned today that w. L.
Brown, of Long Branch, who was
arrested here several days ago, in
connection with a supposed swindle,
has a police record of some length.
The record shows Brown to have
been arrested in Pittsburgh, Pa,
January 5, 1906, in company with John
White and John Hall, two we'll
known confidence men, on a charge
of conspiracy. The trio had fitted up
a clubroom and by means of a crook
ed gambling device, had planned to
fleece a business man out of $1,000.
In March of the following year,
Brown was again arrested in the
Smoky City" this time for false pre-
lenses. He was also taken into GUS
tody as far back as 1896 in New York,
for his implicitly in a crime with

NEW YORK, Oct. s.-The famous
art collection of Benjamin Altman,
the department store merchant, who

city under the terms of his will, in the
opinion of friends.

ued at $10,000000. Besides Rem
brandt's and the works of other old
masters, there are Chinese porcelains
believed to be worth 100000 and
jewelry, gold. rugs, bronzes, marbles
and other objects. At the Metropol-
itan Museum of Art hope is cherished
that art objects will be left to the In
stitution.

New Jersey Harbor Commission, said,

New Jersey Harbor Commission, said,
in part: "a, :, 49, s,. %
this section of New York harbor,
which can, we believe, with a proper
plan, develop into the best Industrial
and residential community in the
port.
"The people of the state of New
Jersey should realize that the de-
velopment of the uplands depends
upon the way in which their water
front is developed: whether it be on
Newark Bay, Hackensack River, Pas
sale River. or on the Hudson River,
and that the people of the State as
whole have an inalienable right to
known about the kind of development
and to pass upon the kind of develop
ment that takes place on the shore
front of the state"
B. F. Cresam, jr., engineer of the
Harbor Commission, said, IN part:
There is ample room in Newark
Bay and the Hackensack Meadows,
as we'll as in other New Jersey Sec
tions of the harbor to develop steam
ship terminals and it should be the
| effort OF the communities to get to-
gether and develop. a plan under
which improvements should be made.
When such plan is worked out the
State should see to it that no de-
velopments be permitted which would
conflict with 1t.
New Jersey has been very unfor-
tunate in having no jurisdiction
whatever over its waterfront except
| the right to sell It, 1t is not the pas
senger steamship commerce that New
| Jersey should seek to attract. The
profit in commerce is in freight, and
1t Is this class of commerce which
New Jersey should seek to attract.

Houston Seeks to Unite U. S.
and States for Good Roads

WASHINGTON, Oct. s.-Secretary
Houston, of the. department of agri-
culture, says that the Estate and
federal governments should work to-
gether for highway improvement in
order that large proportion of the
money annually spent for road con-
struction may not be wasted. In his
own department the office of public
roads has been demonstrating the
value of proper road building by the
construction of certain object-lesson
roads, and the forest service is carry
ing out his idea of national and State
cooperation in road building.
The law requires that 10 per cent.
of the gross receipts from the ma
tional forests shall be spent in the
states in which the forests are
situated. This money is expended for
road improvement under direct con-
troll of the secretary of agriculture.
The amount appropriated under
this act, based on the receipts of the
national forests for the fiscal year
ending June 80. 1918, was 1924, 638.6S.
From the 1912 receipts for this 10 per
cent road item, there is an additional
s134, S31.10. which is still available.

BLIND" MANS SIGHT INSTANTLY RESTORED
WHEN MONEY is STOLEN FROM HIS CUP

blind man" saw the litter" rapidly
walking away.
Nelson started after the litter" or
the run, his eyesight perfectly re-
stored. Patrolman Baker, of the
Fourth precinct, who had watched the
whole affair from the time the woman
put the money into the cup, grabbed
the blind" man as he went past and
took him to the station house.
Nelson was arraigned before Judge
Herr on a charge of begging. After
hearing the story of Nelson's business
relations with the public, Judge Herr
confiscated the blind man" outfit and
gave Nelson time limit of six min
utes to leave Newark. About ten sec
onds after Nelson had left the court
room, Doorman McMeniman found a
penknife, which had been taken from
the prisoner, but when he went to the
front door to give it to Nelson the
"blind man was already two blocks
away, going in the direction of the
Panama exposition grounds.

the former United States ambassa-
dor to Germany, and the Duke of

nobility would not permit Miss
Leishman to become a recognized

No abatement of the disfayor with
which the match is regarded by the

Miss Leishman to Become Bride
of Duke of Croy, on October %

ess if she becomes the wife of the
Duke of Croy will be contested In
the courts of justice by some of the
dukes relatives.
AS the dukes title is of French
origin, however, he is said to be not
directly within the jurisdiction of the
German princely laws, and therefore
the status of the bride might not
easily be determined.
The house of Groy was mediatized
by Napoleon, and 1t Is said that
neither Emperor William nor En-
peror Francis Joseph has any idea
of attempting to bar him from the
enjoyment of his feudal estates at
Duelman, Westphalia, in case he con-
tracts the marriage with the Amer
lean girl. The duke became of legal
age Cwenty-four) last April, and he
has since taken the stand that he
will manage his own affairs.
