BY CAPTAIN RICHARD BOY-ED.

81 never knew Carl Hans Lody,
never saw him, and consequently could
not have sent him to Eng land. Ot
course, know of him-who could
avoiding knowing of him.
81 made no arrangement to SEND
Stegler to England as a spy, CT to pay
him any money for any service he
might render over there. Horn, who
blew up the bridge in Maine, is un-
known to me. For that matter, what
is the use in my denying all these
things? Tomorrow there will be a
lot more to deny. First thing you
know some ship will be blown up IN
the English Channel and some ore
will say | arranged for the explosion.
"This whole thing arises from the
fact that / tried to help Stegler, a
follow countryman, who seemed to pc
in need of help, but who afterward
turned out to be man determined to
get a living by easy means. he I'M
bosed upon me from first to last by
means of his pleasing appearance, COCO
manners and his intelligence.
"Stegler is not an ordinary man, not
the type that an effort has been made
TO make him appear to be. lie claimed
to be a member of good family, and
certainly his address and evident educa-
ton were those which no one, not well
connected, would have. He came to me
with a pitiful story about his beautiful
young bride, who was the main sufferer
through his penniless condition, caused
by the war. He played upon my sym
pathies to such an extent that, al
though | did not know anything about
him at all. l advanced him money from
the start.
Immediately he told me his story |
began to make inquiry among business
friends for a vacancy that Stegler
might be able to fill. The prospect was
rather discouraging until | received a
letter from a friend in Germany, who
asked me whether it would be possible
for me to send him a bright young
American man with a knowledge OF
German. Stegler seemed to have the
necessary qualifications. In the mean
time | had helped him out to the extent
of more than 500.
81 assumed that he would use the
money for the necessities of life. In

TWO INDICTED
IN NAVY YARD CASE
Steward on the Texas and Sup
ply Firm Agent Face
Bride Charge.

The federal grand jury in Brooklyn,
which has been investigating alleged
graft in furnishing supplies for ships
in the navy yard, yesterday indicted
Thomas J. White, a representative OF
the Brooklyn Steamship and Hotel Sup
ply Company, and Walter G. Roaehe. a
steward on the battleship Texas. The
specifc charge against them is an at
tempt TO bride Joseph Reay, paymsster
of the Texas, to certify a consignment
of $1,000 pounds of meat as 25,OOO
pounds. -.
ant limited States Attorney, the graft
has been going on for the last -FOUR
years and the government has been de-
frauded of thousands of dollars. White,
he SAYS, was engaged in business Tor
himself four years ago as provision
dealer and used TO supply the navy
Yard But after a dispute over the
quality of some of the supplies ne
was banned. Since then he has been
.mployed as the representative OF the
sunnly company. He lives at AT East
Twenty-frst Street, Flatbush. .,
White was arraigned before Federal
I,dge Van Vechten Veeder yesterday

DON'T CARE TO LIE
ABED ALL MORNING
Department Store Girls Oppose
Change in Law Covering
Overtime Allowance.

Prom q stsn Correspondent Of The TrbuHej
Albany, Feb. 25.-New York City de-
partment store girls have no desire Tor
more time to lie abed mornings, &C
cording to arguments made by some OF
their representatives to-day before the
Assembly Committee on Labor and In
dustry. The hearing was on the bill
permitting department stores to spread
out over the week allowance for over
time instead of making it all up on one
day, as is now required by law. KEEP
resentatives Of the stores favored the
hill on the ground that 1t was better
for clerks to stay in bed little longer
on each day than to take lot of sleep
on any one day.
The shop girls, however, declared
they wanted their overtime all at once,
that they had no desire to lie abed
mornings, and that it was no business
of the department stores what they did
with their spare time. Some Of the
store men suggested that the girls take
a long sleep on Sundays, which stirred
resentment The clerks supporters
said that Sunday was no time to sleep,
but should be set aside for church 60
ing.
F. W. Bloomingdsle. counsel for the
Retail Dry Goods Association, appeared
for the bill. while those who opposed
it included Mrs. Martin Cothren, Miss
Pauline Svenson, representing the
Woman's Trade Union League; A. H.
Hall, for the New York Child Labor
Committee, and Miss Anna Schwartz
and Miss May Fox for the Retail
Clerks Union.

WRESTLES BAG;
CATCHES NEGRO
Theatre Usher ReScueS the
Plays Makeup and
Costumes.

A burlap bag five feet long that wab-
bled and danced about the dim audito-
rum of Hurtig g. SeamOn's Theatre, in
125th Street. about 6 o'clock last night,
was the first thing that Joseph Pollock
an usher, saw when he arrived on the
job.
Pollock braced his nerve and ad-
vanced on the bag, calling to 1t to halt
Instead. it bounced down an aisle,
through a door leading to the rear and
out on a fire escape. Down the fire es-
cape the bag and Pollock raced. At the
bottom the bag, apparently exhausted,
toppled over and from under II scut-
tied a negro. Pollock grabbed him,
shouting for help. Howard Burkhardt,
the assistant treasurer, rushed out and
together they subdued the negro.
When they looked in the bag they
discovered how barely THE Follies OF
the Day" had escaped complete
eclipse last night. The burlsp con-
tanned makeup kits and % cos
tunes worth $500, including that of the
leading woman. The prisoner said he
was Charles Shaw, of 654 Baltic Street,
Brooklyn. He was locked up in the
West 125th Street station.

TO have been convinced that should he
refrain from using the passport. II he
returned it unused. he would have done
nothing meriting punishment.
All Of his statements are in part
corroborated by his wife. She, how
ever. does not know Boyd, never saw
him and, so far as | know, never saw
any other German official"
Mr.. Griffiths will ask TO have Steg-
ler's bail reduced from the $4,000 in
which he is now held. He thought last
night that a smaller sum could easily
be raised.
W. e. Kuefel failed TO make the
revelations Captain Boyd had de-
clared the firm would make.
Stegicr, he said. had been employed
by the house for matter of two
years, and had always tried to do his
duty. The reason for his leaving its
service he would not state.
ITS odd that the government should
make such row over this thing" he
said, but it may mean that II intends
hereafter to protect those who hold
its passports. Not long since young
man of this town, American born. and
bearing proper passports, was arrested
in London en- route for Holland He
got no aid from the embassy. lie did
get out through his own exertions,
went TO Holland, transacted his bust
ness there and was home two weeks
when he received notice from the
State Department that he had been
freed from prison.
Quick work, that"
81 have never met with more ingrati-
tude from any one than from Stegler,"
go l. A L Il
what Mr.. Griffiths had said. His al
legged statement that | offered to pay
his wife $3.50 a month while he was
away and $3.50 a month for life if
Stegler should be executed is trash!
1t is absolutely foolish to think Of
81 did not know, and consequently
could not send, Carl Hans Lody to
England. Nor did send any one over
on the Franconia.
81 did write to DR.. Fuehr, asking IL
! know about that. DR.. Fuehr is doing
journalistic work in this city"
"My husband is a good man." said
home at 23l Madison Street, Hoboken.
"The only trouble with him is that he
got into bad company. | am sure he
is not guilty of the charges"
The records at Police Headquarters
in Hoboken show that Richard Madden
is now out on a bond of $1,000 on a
charge of felonious assault on Deem
Der 7, when he was accused of shoot
ing at Harry Holzhauser, in the home
of Adolph Becker, 6S jefferson Street,
Hoboken.
With him at the time was Minnie
Murray, who, according to Police Chief
Hayes, is now in the County Jail,
awaiting the action of the grand jury.
MADDEN was a likable fellow and a
good business man up to a few years
ago." said Chief Hayes. Then drink
got the best of him. About four years
