ATTEMPTED ESCAPE FAILS
 AND THIEF IS ARRESTED
Man Who Robbed Hartford Avenue House Lead PO-
 lice Merry Chase.

Rolled in a desperate attempt to escape the clutches of the Hartford police, John J. Anderson, alias John Murphy a tWentythree years old young man, who Is also wanted by the Waterbury auth critics for house. breaking, was brought to this city and lodged in a cell at police head quarters this afternoon by Detective Sergeant Samuel Bamforth. Ander- son is charged with breaking into the room occupied by loses Baba at No. A. Hartford avenue yesterday morn ing and stealing a suit of clothes, an overcoat, a gold watch and a ring. The suit of clothes he had on his person when arrested. The coat Is missing,.a as are the ring and watch.
 As soon as he was appraised of the robbery Detective Bamforth notified the Hartford police and Officer J. F. Madigan caught Anderson trying to dispose of a coat in an East Side pawn shop. At the Hartford police station he admitted being the New Britain thief to Detective Sergeant Melberger and said he had an accom- plice. He then offered to show the detective where his accomplice was hiding, and handcuffed, he accom- panied the officer to a house on North Main street. The man was not there.
 Anderson then asked Detective Mel berger to wait with him in doorway at the corner of Main and Trum bull streets as he expected his pal to pass there shortly. After a half hours wait Anderson shouted: There he is'' At the instant Detective Melberger turned his head to look his prisoner, needless of the fact that his hands were secured behind him, dashed into the crowd and raced down Main street. The man proved to be a good sprinter for he kept we'll ahead of the detective until, intturning into an alley leading from Windsor street to Main street he tripped and fell into a barrel of ashes, Officer Walsh, who had joined the chase, caught him just as he was again starting to run. Even when reca blurred Anderson kept his nerve an dlaughed over his near escape. When brought out to this city Anderson calmly smoked at cigar cite.
 Detective keegan, of the Water bury police force, is here to look after the man in the interest of his depart ment.
 Anderson told the police that the watch and ring were hidden behind a shovel in a Hartford stable but a search there failed to disclose them

ITALIAN BOUND TO STAKE
 WHILE GATORS THREATEN
Mysterious Antics of Trio in Open Lot Cause Police
 to Interfere.

Sitting on the ground with both hands tied to a tree at his back with a rope and two wild looking fellow countrymen standing over him with sharp-pointed knife, an Italian who gives his name as Joe Uzenti, was the police patrol from either some mysterious danger or some danger ous practical joke shortly after o'clock this afternoon but as none of the trio can speak English their in- tentions can not be ascertained until an Italian interpreter can be se- cured, and at press time one had not been found.
 Shortly after l o'clock a woman called up Chief Rawlings and in a ter rified voice told him that two Italians had tied a third man to a tree in the vacant lot on the north side of West Main street opposite Bradley street, and were making threatening over lures. ....
 Officer Dart and Dennis O'Keefe sped out there in the auto patrol and into the lot they went. Seeing the officer approaching the two men cut lilS IopeS btlldlnR Lhe1r prisoner to the tree and started to flee. All three were arrested but some other men seen peeping through the shrubbery made good their escape On the ground near where the prisoner had been tied to the stake was a wicked looking knife with a needleIike point, but a hoe-like blade.
 The three men gave their names as Joe Uzenti, Tony EEcnti and Arti Barrey Philitio. Joe, who was the victim, tied to the stake, declared in broken English that Tony is his brother, but further than that the men could say nothing intclligibIe.
 Whether tEe two men were simply playing wild west and were having an innocent joke at the expense Of their friend, or whs.t,er he was tied up with evil intent and the two men with the knife were about to inaiot bodily injury on him is merely a matter Of conjecture until the interpreter can unravel the case.
