special TO the Evening star.
NEWTON, oct. 15.-After a search
which had been continued since Octo-
Der 2, detectives employed by the
Adams Express Company here sue
oeeded in locating $4,000 in unsigned
currency and making an arrest. They
found 81, 1870 in the garnet of the man
they took prisoner. The rest of the
money, the prisoner admits, he sue
eeeded in passing, although 1t was
unsigned.
The prisoner says he found the
package lying on a truck and took it.
When he got home and opened 1t he
found it was $40 and $40 bills, and he
decided to keep it. Evidently he did
not notice that the money was I'M
signed Neither did some of the store
Keepers here and in nearby places
notice that little omission either.
The currency was consigned to the
sussex and Merchants National banks
here. The package reached here all
right and was signed for by Charles
Scherer, driver for the express COM
pany. Then it disappeared. Scherer
was interview, but claimed to know
nothing of the disappearance of the
money. Detectives were then put on
the case, but they failed to get a clue
for several days.
The trail led to Dover, Morristown
and then to Hoboken. In each place
1he detectives found some of the I'M
signed bills but in each instance were
unable to get up to the man they
were after. They learned yesterday
that he had returned home and they
Immediately came here and arrested
him.
When taken into custody the pris-
oner, Arthur Lent, fifty years old,
admitted that" he had found the
money. He also admitted having
changed some of the bills in stores
here and nearby places. He told the
detectives that the rest Of the cur
rency. $3.50, was in his garnet. The
detectives found it there
Lent was taken to Jail and is being
held until the authorities come to. a
determination as to what to do with
him. Lent told the detectives that
he found the package lying on n
truck at the railroad station and took
II to his home, and that when he
opened II was amazed to find it was
real money. He had never seen so
much money in his life and started
out to "enjoy life" He had succeeded
in spending less than 800, however,
when the detectives cut short his
good time.

CONGRESS TAKES UP
FISH TRUST FIGHT
Jersey Delegates Delighted at
News of Linthicum's Con-
servation Bill.

Special 10 the Evening Star.
ATLANTIC CITY, Oct ia ten
tative promise of government CO.
operation in the rapidly growing
movement to conserve the foolish
supply of the Jersey coast, through
the passage of an act of Congress
bringing all migratory fishes under
Federal protection, was received with
enthusiasm at a meeting of hotel,
yachting and fishing interests called
to outline plans for warfare for the
abolition of Jersey coast pound nets
before the Legislature next January.
S. IL. Dunlap, acting commissioners
of the Federal Bureau of Fisheries,
sent to the meeting formal declara-
ton that it will be the policy of the
government in future to oppose the
promiscuous taking OF fish for con-
version into fertilizer, an industry
paying enormous dividends to the
Menhaden fishing trust. The acting
commissioner pointed out that it was
obviously impossible at this time for
the government to take any hand di-
rectly in the movement now organic
ing on the Jersey coast to prohibit
the licensing of pounds, which gath
er up huge quantities of flsh. He
called attention however, to the fact
that Congressman d. Charles Linthi-
cum, of Maryland, has introduced a
bill comforting full control and pro-
lection of migratory fish upon the
Federal bureau.
This was news to the forces or
ganizing here to fight the pounds
through State legislation and I'M
certainty as to whether it would be
wiser to go ahead with the fight upon
State lines only, or join forces with
fishermen of other States in a united
effort to procure the passage of the
Federal act, caused the meeting to
defer action. 1t is probable, how
ever, that the State fight will be
pressed and the fight at Washington
taken I'D at the Same time.
