Washington, Aug. Is The trials
and tribulations of Senators today
were not so much concerned with
the tariff, the soldiers bonus and
the ship subsidy as they were with
the industrial crisis that complete
ly overshadowed the legislative
program.
Senators were being bombarded
with teleGraphic appeals from their
constituents for relief from actual
or impending fuel shortG ges due to
the coal strike, or from transnorta-
ton or freight tieups resulting from
the railroad walkout.
The mails were no longer flooded
with letters bearing on legislation.
They We're letters reporting acute
or threatened distress from the in

that many sections of the country
are already beginning to suffer from
the strikes, while all are common,

men in every walk of life, in near

RAILWAY EXPRESS AGENT
CATCHES THREE ROBBERS
Exploits Of Detective Mccarthy
Promise TO Clear Up $1,000, 900
Bond Robbery.

New York.-A human blood
tracked his quarry through many
states, finally caught up with them
and, in the assumed role of a western
~highwaymen, mingled with the mem
bers of the alleged bandit gang he
had trailed, gained their confidence
and wormed their secrets from them
on JOY rides, at gay dinners, Broad
way theaters and cabarets before
springing the trap which resulted in
their arrest, is Special Agent Gordon
Mccarthy, of the American Railway
Express.
P~ostoffice inspectors, department
OF justice officials and police
authorities were loud in their praise
Of McCarthy's detective work which,
with the arrest of Count Edward
Bryce and Charles Lambert, OF New
York City, and Charles Heines, Of
Rochester. y. Y, promises TO clear
up the Sl.5OG, 900 bond robbery of a
mail truck at Leonard street and
Broadway, October "a, and a $4,000
American Railway Express wagon
holdup at Niagara Falls two months
later.
Charged with completely in the
theft OF bonds from registered
pouches among the 2S the auto truck
carried, the trio. alleged leading
members Of a long sought robber
band, will be arraigned before United
States Commissioner Hitchcock.
Thus far bonds worth $500, 900. part
of the loot OF the October robbery,
have been recovered-S300,00 0 from
the bottom of a trunk in Bryce's
luxurious apartment al II Gramercy
park, and the balance from a burlap
bag buried under a tree in a field
near Silver Lake, L. l.
Mccarthy picked up the bandits
trail last December, following the
$4,000 bond theft by four bandits
at Niagara Falls. Their movements
took the detective into nearly every
large city in the country. and early
last month, when the bandits again
were in New York, he decided On
a bold stroke.
He struck up an acquaintance with
them, boosted of a record of banditry
in the west, Joined them in a merry
whirl OF shows. cabarets and nearby
resorts to which they motored in
Count" Bryce's limousine, and after
winning their confidence by laying
elaborate plans for several holdups,
learned many of their secrets.
Mccarthy was in touch with
Police Inspector Lahey and three
detectives of his staff and kept the
bandits under constant surveillance.
Last Sunday they for the first time
became suspicious of Mccarthy and,
fearing to delay longer, he arranged
for their arrest in the Counts
automobile. Heines, also known as
Dutch Anderson" was identified by
Frank Haverhak, driver of the looted
mail truck, as the bandit who
jumped upon the seat beside him
and covered him with a revolver
while his companions selected the
most valuable of the registered
nouches.
