THIEVES FEASTED
FOR SEVEN WEEKS
Camped Out in Wealthy Home
Son Finds Large Loss
and UnWaShed Dishes.

For seven weeks thieves enjoyed the
exclusive use of the spacious home of
Herman BlanGuer, a cutlery manuiact-
urer, at 1872 East Sixty-third Street.
They camped on the site, made the
house a rendezvous, and then gathered
up several thousand dollars worth Of
loot, part of which had been removed.
The Blanauer family closed the house
seven weeks ago and went to the coun-
try. A son returned Saturday for some
clothes and found the door locked from
the inside He called neighbor and
they pulled the door open.
The house had been ransacked. The
table was Uttered with dishes that had
not been washed. Several boxes Of
valuables were found, which evidently
were ready 10 be carried away. Furs,
silverware and clothing had been re-
moved in large quantities. The police
have found no Glow.

MARRIN FREED;
PARDON MYSTERY
Judge Who Sentenced
Brooklyn Lawyer Denies
Urging Whitman to Act.
PRISONER SWINDLED
WOMAN BENEFACTOR
Once a Soldier of Fortune, He
Spent $150,000 on One
Gay Visit to Paris.

Frank c. Marin. the one-time Brook
lyn lawyer. convicted for forgery in
1908 and sentenced to from fifteen to
twenty years in Sing Sing. is free
man to-day. Governor Whitman signed
The Communication papers yesterday. and
Marrin will be released from Auburn
prison. where he had been transferred.
A dispatch from Albany stated that
the Governor acted on the recommen-
dation of the Parole Board and of
County Judge Dixie. who sentenced Mar
rim. The Judge was said TO have writ
ten a letter setting forth that as Mar
rim had made restitution and spent
seven years in prison. sufficient pun
ishment had been inflicted.
81 never recommended clemency for
Frank c. Marin or expressed the opln-
ion that his sentence should be light
ened," said Judge Dixie when the dis
patch was read to him. 81 merely
stated in a letter 10 former Governor
Glynn that it was a matter solely for
decision by the Executive"
He was convicted for swindling Mrs.
Caroline Barry out of thousands of
dollars while acting as her attorney in
1895 She took deep interest in Mar
rim when he was boy. helped estab-
fish him in law Office and intrusted
ell her business affairs to him.
Marin had been soldier of fortune
before the law curtailed his activities.
He had once commanded a Elonduran
revolutionary regiment, had spent
$4,000 of his Illegal profits on one
visit to Paris, where he was president
of the American Beefsteak Club. and
in 1896 under the name of Colonel
Stone, in Chicago organized a press
bureau and managed a daily newspaper
with three editions.

State Committee, put it neatly and con-
cisely.
"My brother isn't in town to-day

were here he wouldn't tell you how he
stands on woman suffrage. Why. if
he were to take a stand against it, and
it were to 20 through, all the New

come out for it, and the amendment
lost, he'd be equally unpopular"

group of minority stockholders OF
the international Mercantile Marine
Company met at l20 Broadway yester-
day and entered protest against the
bondh olders' reorganization plan whlch
proposes an assessment OF you
share on the stock. While this meet
ing was going on Chauncey q. Parker,
Of Newark, was appointed ancillary
receiver for the company in New Jer-
sey by the Court OF Chancery on the
petition of President Parvin. This
action was taken because the company
was incorporated in New Jersey.
Former Representative Henry S. De
Forest, holder o. several thousand
shares of International Mercantile
Marine stock, at yesterdays minority
meeting called the proposal of the
bondholders' committee TO place the
bulk of the expense of reorganization
upon the shareholders Outrageous.
Mr.. De Forest was a member of the
committees intrusted with the respon-
sbility Of investigating the company's
affairs at the time of the Titanic dis
aster.
There was no rcason," said Mr.. De
Forest. "for throwing the company
into the hands of receiver at the
time this action was taken. A com
pany which is earning at the rate OF
S20,000,000 n year on S5l 100000 pre-
fcrred stock should not be in the
hands Of receiver at all. | believe
in taking action to put the control Of
the company back in the hands of the
people who own 1.-THE stockholders.
For the international Mercantile
Marine Company to spend from ST.
600 900 to SS,OO0,000 to buy ships from
the Pacific Mail and to charge the
largest depreciation in the history Of
the company at time when the value
Of ships has been advancing are steps
which seem strange in view of the as
sessment and treatment of stockhold-
crs. which practically amounts to
fIeeZe-out."
About $4,000 shares were represent
ed at yesterdays meeting, but, mas
much as further efforts will be made
TO enlist the support of other stock
holders to fight the $3.50 assessment
adjournment was taken until August
25 without taking definite action.
The appointment of Mr.. Parker as
receiver in New Jersey. it was said
at the company's Offices, was in pro
ceedings similar to those instituted
last April when p A. S. Franklin was
made receiver for New York State
Mr.. Parker, it was said, was appointed
aneillary receiver in New Jersey, with
supervision of the company's affairs
in that state only.
