BLIND BEGGAR HAS
3 LAWYERS FOR DEFENCE,

Philadelphia, Dec. IA blind beg
gar. known as Bernstein, and also as
Berkowitz, of New York, arrested here
several days ago in a crusade against
street mendicants, had the assistance
oe three lawyers today in securing his
Aaase from custody. He was arrest
ed on the charge of vagrancy While
begging with his wife, the police al
leging that he was a man of means.
The man engaged two Philadelphia
lawyers and communicated with his
New York attorney.
The magistrate was in quandary
what to do with the man. He said he
could not send the prisoner to the
house of correction because of his af
fction, as inmates of that institution
under the law are required to work:
and he could not send him to the aims
house because he was possessed of
means and was not an object of char
ity. The magistrate finally decided to
release him on the word of the lawyers
that he would stay off the streets.
