LAD, AGED 9, STEALS
$3.50 SUBWAY CASH
Drops It In Film Theatre When
Found, and Runs, While Pals
Pick 1t Up and ScoOt.

Nine-year old Albert Alderman, fond
Of seeing tho trains in the subway, be-
came friendly with Henry Kimble,
ticket agent on the downtown side OF
the Lenox avenue and 135th street sta
ton, and made himself useful running
for coffee and sandwiches or to get
change for a bill
Often in the last two weeks, as Al
bert played about the ticket booth, tho
sight Of the canvas bag bullying with
the days receipts fascinated him.
Then an idea came to him. Last night
he carried II out. He slit the bag with
a safety razor blade and slipped $500 in
DIS and $50 in silver into his pocket.
Later when Albert, sitting in NOV =
ing picture theatre between two negro
boys, saw Andrew NJ. OConnor, the
gateman, come looking In at the the
atre door, he jumped up and fled. and in
his terror threw the $500 and the rolls
OF silver on the floor.
While OConnor, who is on the list
to be policeman, chased Albert, the
TWO little negroes picked up the cash
and whispering Stage money!" TO
throw observers Off the scent, quickly
made themselves scarce.
O'Connor traced Albert TO his home.
at No. 500 LenoX avenue, and there the
boy was arrested by Detectives Duke
shire and Kerr, whom he took around
IN q hunt Tor his two negro friends.

NEW WAR ON TAMMANY
Independent Democrats Revolt
on Direct Primary Plan.

We the independent Democrats OF
New York City. will not consider our
selves bound by any party obligations
TO support the machine candidates NOM
mated by the Tammany state machine,
but will either nominate an independent
Democratic ticket or support such cam
didates as appeal to our duties as cti-
zens"
This defiance Of Tammany was made
by resolution last night at a meeting Of
the Democratic Association at No. 1899
Madison avenue. County Clerk William
p. Schneider proposed tho resolution
1T seems Obvious he said, that
neither Of the dominant political ma
chimes is DESTROYS of passing an honest
primary law"
The club delegated a committee OF
fifty 10 visit Governor Glynn and urge
upon him the wisdom of presenting his
primary amendments at the extraordi-
nary session of the Legislature.

1O-D0LLAR JUSTICE
BY A JURY OF NINE
Judge" Corr gan and Panel of
Reporters Award Bill Found by
Commissioner HoughtOn.

A $40 gold note picked UP Wednesday
noon in.lower Broadway by United States
Commissioner Houghton, in defiance Of
All Fools Day hazards, was returned to
its owner yesterday by a Judge and Jury
of newspaper men who "cover" the Fed
eral Building.
Ever since Commissioner Houghton
found the bill he has been haunted by a
dark eyed, serious minded young man.
He said he was Frank Ebbich, OF No. 157
Beacon avenue. Jersey City, and that his
sister gave him the money to buy a
scarfpin.
Commissioner Houghton. who used to
be an assistant United States District at
torney, was impressed by the appearance
OF the young mans sister, who confirmed
her brothers story, and was pretty sure
the young man had lost SO bill, but the
identity Of the bill was q question he
thought could be eauitably decided by re-
porters. So, after appointing James Cor
rigan, dean OF the Federal Building
staff" as Judge, the corridors and court
rooms were ransacked until jury of nine
was impanelled.
Ebbich took the stand and was drilled
for nearly half hour by Judge" Corrt-
gan and all the Jurors. Then Commits
sioner Houghton was called. Judge" Cor
rigan thought it strange that while tho
Commissioner picked the bill UP not more
than ten feet from where Ebbich was
standing when he saw tho Commissioner
open It up. he OEbbich) hadn't seen it.
