L. L. Force, Confesses
GOODS HE HAS FILL TWO AUTOS
Authorities Find Stolen Property Tn.
der Floors and Between Walls of
His HOuSe-"Wanted Money" He
Explains-COnyicted a Man For His
Own Crime-TWO Women Arrested.

New York, July 27.-Rulof Paterson.
the third member of the police force
of Rockville Centre, L. l., to be ar
rested for the wholesale robberies
which have been going on in that town
for the past six months, today con-
fessed that every robbery had been
made with the knowledge of the po-
lice. All were specially conducted
robberies by the police themselves, or
made with their connivance.
Paterson was arraigned before Po-
lice Justice Harrison B. Wright and
held for trial
Paterson's home at East Rockaway
had been searched and nothing found
there. This morning he took Trustee
Edwin Wallace and County Detective
Phineas Seaman to the house and pro-
duced stolen good enough to load two
automobiles. The goods were secreted
between walls, between rafters in the
cellar, and under floors.
In the loot were bicycles, cut glass,
silyerware, silks, and all kinds of
trinkets. The stuff was spread out on
tables at the city hall and persons who
had hen robbed invited to come and
identify their missing goods.
i was an honest man and a police
man for two years." Paterson told the
trustees. For the last three years 1
have been stealing. wanted the
money, then after I got the goods 1
was afraid to dispose of them"
Paterson told how he had investigat-
ed robberies committed by himself and
other policemen. He said that the
home of John Pilkington had been
robbed by him and another of the no
licemen under arrest now.
Warren Treadwell was convicted bv
them of the crime. He and the other
policeman were returning to the house
for second load of loot when they
saw Treadwell going through a win
dow they had left open.
On the strength of Paterson's con-
fession woman friend of his and the
wife of one of the arrested policemen
were taken into custody as material
witnesses.

Ter MdJTlmOnldl ldHgIe Is hefealeN
London, July 27.-Today was field
day in the divorce court.
Amor the DEGREES nisi was one
granted to Gabrielle Ray, former
.Gaiety dancer, who was married to
Eric Loder, the scion of we'll known
wealthy family. Loder's attention 70
another actress, whose name was act
mentioned in the proceedings, Fur
nished the grounds for the divorce.
Next Maidie Hope, another Gaiety
girl, who was married to Charles Dud-
ley Ward, a relative of Earls Esher
and Dudley, won a suit for the resti-
tuition of her conjugal rights. The de-
fendant went to America in February,
1918, against his wife's wish, and on
his return refused to live with her.
Then came the sequel to the recent
parliamentary divorce suit of Carr
Comm versus Crawshay Williams. Will
liams, who was correspondent in that
case, now is divorced by his wife. Mrs.
Williams offered to forgive her hus-
band, but the latter refused on the
ground that he owed the rest of his
life to Mrs. Carr-Gomm, who, by the
way, recently made her debut on the
stage.
Lady Julia Affleck obtained a decree
nisi on the grounds of cruelty and de-
sertion. Her husband, Sir Robert At
feck, is the seventh baronet.
Finally a curious marriage story of
two Americans was unfolded in a suit
to nullify their English marriage,
brought by Henry Hudson Davis, of
New York and Detroit. The wife was
cited as Marie Davis, otherwise Eliza
beth Marie Packer, otherwise Bates, of
Detroit.
Davis testified that he met the wo-
man at Detroit in January, 1v09. She
represented herself to be Miss Bates.
In the summer Davis came to Eng
land on business trip. The woman
followed and they were married at
Prestwick, England, in September of
the same year.
A few years later, when Davis was
about to return to America, his wife
protested. There was some discussion,
and eventually the woman admitted
that she had been married to J. Je~-
ONE Packer, an American, in Detroit,
in 1907.
After this confession the couple sep
arated, Davis returning to the United
States. Later the woman returned to
Detroit, where she brought a suit for
divorce against Packer and obtained
a decree. Davis now asked for a de-
cree of nullity of the English marriage
on the ground that at the time of the
woman's marriage to him, Packer, her
first husband, was alive.
He produced in court legal docu-
ments from America proving her mar
'riage to Packer, and subsequent di-
vorce in Detroit.
These papers were examined by Jus
tee Bargrave Dean, who remarked that
Mrs. Davis age was described in 1907
as rs, in 1909 as 90, while two years
later she appeared to be considerably
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1914-07-28

younger. The court held that the De-
troit divorce proved that Packer was
alive at the time of the woman's mar
riage to Davis in England, and pro-
nounced the English marriage null and
void.

An Eccentric Russian Doctor.

The famous Russian, the late Dr. Zaharin, was noted for his eccentric methods. When summoned to attend Czar Alexander III. in his last illness Dr. Zaharin required the same prep aration for his visit to the palace as to any of his patients houses. That is to say, all dogs had to be kept out of the way, all clocks stopped and every door thrown wide open. He left his furs in the hall. his overcoat in the next room. his galoshes in the third and. continuing. arrived at the bedside in ordinary indoor costume. He sat down after walking every few yards and every eight steps in going up- stairs. From the patients relatives and every one else in the house he re- quired absolute silence until he spoke to them. when his questions had to be answered by Yes" or No" and noth- ing more.
