A Proposition 10 Mr. Edison An Opon Lottor

congratulate you on those recent Questonnaires Of
yours.
No one in this broad land enjoyed the way you
showed up the College Graduates any more Than
what did.
They call themselves Educated and monopolize the
high salary Jobs, and yet when you ask them to
locate Portuguay, name the Large Island south
of Given Point they are all at Sea and nothing to
Bail with.
And when 1t comes telling you what sort of wood
Cedar Shingle is made of, or anything Practical
like that they practically Lost.
suppose it would be Refining Experience to loaf
around Campus four years, studying Julius C@sar's
battles in the Phipponnesan War; and keeping
Bulldog in your room.
No doubt there would be Culture in learning to tell
a Proposition from Protoplasm, and In reading
how Old Iliad and those other Dead Ones went after
Helen Of Troy in the original Latin.
And 1t would be quite Broadening to play Tennis in
cream colored Flannes on the dear old college Lawn,
with the Faculty slipping Lemonade under the his
torical Elms, and the carefree Sophomores singing
their merry Gees over back OF the Peterson Memorial
Astronomical Observatory.
But life is real, Mr. Edison, life Is earnest

was checkmated. Mclaughlin continued
his digging. Detective Sergeant Kent OF
Reading was helping him, and they were
checking up the whole city.
According to the proprietor of the Bel
mont, one of the most consistent visitors
to Tobin's room had been a well-dressed,
intelligent looking one-armed man. Nc
Loughlin saw that he had no direct lead
from the hotel. He reasoned that the
visitors attending the convention must
have lived out in town at an apartment
or at another hotel. He had checked all
the hotels. He and Sergt Kent proceeded
to check the apartment houses in search
of a one-armed man. We knew that to
solve the bank robbery and hnd the cul-

prits we first must run dowc the mem
bers of the convention crowd.
Mclaughlin returned to the abandoned
touring car-the robbery car. He re-
membered that the police had found
it on Woodward street. He rea-
soned that the bandits had driven
near to some rendezvous. and so he
checked apartment houses on Wood
ward street first. Two blocks from the
spot where the car had been found, at
the apartment house at 40 Woodward
street, Mclaughlin learned from the
lessee, Miss Shanahan. that two men
whom she knew as ]. Williams and Harry
Seeman had taken an apartment there
January q. paying their rent two weeks
in advnace, and had remained for three
days Then they had come back on
February and had stayed until Satur-
day, February s.
Miss Shanahan said she knew Williams
and Seeman as whisky runners and "ac-
counted them perfectly respectable"
Mclaughlin notified me at once of
The New York herald., 1922-06-11


Miss Shanahan identified a photograph OF
Stuart Wallace, notorious bank -obber,
as ]. Williams. But Stuart Wallace was
a one-armed man; she would not say that
Williams was one-armed.
Meanwhile Sergt. Kent had been busy
checking apartment houses in other
lions of the town. At an apartment
house at 23O South Sixth street. Mrs.
Mcdonald. the landlady, told the police
that two court-plaster statesmen. T..
Scott and ]. Belmont, had taken an
apartment there January 81, that they
had been visited the first night by three
men, who arrived in green Essex auto
mobile one of the men had no left hand.
Mrs. Mcdonald told of a pretty girl,
Miss Helen Brown, who had several times
come in a taxicab to the house. The po-
lice found Miss Brown. They took her to
the Mayors Office, where she was ques-
toned for hours. The official threatened
to hold her as an accomplice, and then
she agreed to tell all she knew. Helen
Brown was the woman in the case. There
was another, too, but we never learned
much of her. She was a mysterious

after a scratching fight with Helen
Brown because she accused Miss Brown
of "squealing"
The Brown girl told us some interest
ing things. She had been close friend
of c. Scott. She knew him better as Carl
Lordy. Monday, January 20, she said.
while she was in the Berkeley restaurant
ing himself alternately Russo and Bel
mont, the other giving his name as Carl
Lordy They told her they were apart
ment hunting, and asked her IL she knew
her way about Reading. She met them
again the next day and they told her
they had found an apartment at 23O South
Sixth street
She saw Lordy, or Scott, several times
after that. and drove about frequently
with linn in his green Essex touring car.
Saturday morning. early, Scott and Bel
mont came hurriedly to her apartment
and told her they were driving to Phila-
delphia and would like her TO 60 with
them. The three in the Essex car had
dinner at the st. James Hotel in Phila-
delphia that evening and the next day
drove to New York. They went to din
ner at a Broadway restaurant--Free-
mans at Forty-seventh street--and then
took Helen Brown to .he Pennsylvania
Railroad station, bought her a ticket for
Reading, gave her 500 and put her on
the train.
She remembered, she said. that Lordy
had told her he and the Italian. Belmont.
were going to buy hotel In Hoboken
which was run by a Spaniard with a Ger
man wife.
Mclaughlin sent all this information
at once. That gave us something TO do.

boken and began to check up on hotels.
Mclaughlin was working still. had
determined who the various members of

left the hotel. Then, after few days.
Tobin returned This time he was indis-
Greet enough to sign his name to the reg
lister as Mr.. Tobin, which indicated to US
that he had forgotten the initial he had
assumed the previous time. With him
there came back man who registered as
James Burns of Allentown, but who was
recognized as the Burke" of the previ-
GUS visit. Another man. registering as
G. Harris, was put in an adjoining room.

wires, and they told him a story, perhaps
mysterious story, yet one which gavc
him confidence that he was on the right
TRAIL
Convention ready. Come tonight.
Wire what train. Will meet you"
Word for word, Tobin had sent that
wire to John Mccarthy at - Quincy
street, Brooklyn; to John Ryan. - East
Nineteenth street. New York; to B. Wal
lace,-West Forty-eighth street, New
York; to Tom Brown, Times Square Ho-
tel. lew York, and to Harry Seeman,
New York, as well as to a balf-dozen
other men in other cities.
Mccarthy had answered at once: Am
leaving on 4 o'clock train. Please meet
me-"
Ryan had answered that night at 9:06:
Cant go tonight Will be there to-mor-
row night Wire back"
Tobin wired back: "will wait. Don't
fail or we leave Thursday night"
"Will leave o'clock Thursday. De-
tainei on business. Wire back II all
right" J. Ryan had answered.
Ryan's procrastinations evidently had
upset Tobin's organization. for he wired a
Tom Brown at the Times Square Hotel:
Await further advice. Business de-
layed."
Thursday passed and Ryan still had
not appeared. Tobin wired him again:
"Wire Immediately IL sure coming to-
day"
"will be out tonight sure" Ryan an
swered.
The New York herald., 1922-06-11

Evidently Tobin was
reassured, for he wired
Tom Brown as follows:
Business ready. Bring
extra fund II possible"
That telegram was rather cryptic in its
reference to an extra fund, but we later
learned that it meant IAN extra man"
One Chick Coe had failed to answer the
summons to the convent.
The last of these kilograms was re-
ceived by Tobin Friday. This one was
apparently from the big Chief" for 1t
gave instruction to Tobin himself. who
had appeared up to that lie to be in full
authority. 1t was signed u. Williams"
and it read: John Ryan met accident
with car. Not serious. Return home i'm
mediately."
Tobin and his COMP, Burke, i'm
mediately checked out of the Belmont,
and the convention had been adjourned
temporarily.
But they were back week afterward,
and iere were several more with them.
Tobin had been visited in his room daily
by four other men whom he could iden-
tify and by various other nondescripts.
Mclaughlin was thus assured that
there had been a convention indeed, and

No Help.
1t is no great help to know that
one has been widely picked to win.
Psychology then works In the op-
posite direction.
II you win--weii. you were ex-
pected to. II you don't--it may be
anything from dumb-bell to false
alarm. Those picked by the voice
OF clamor In advance have every
thing 10 lose but little to gain In
the way of glory. These are heavy
odds 10 face.
This handicap OF being picked in
advance follows Bobby Jones now
at golf. just as 1t followed Chick
Evans for years. They all said
Chick" was the best golfer and
ought to win--but from 1907 to1sl6
he didn't. Then they began to say
he never would win and in 1916 he
won both the open and the anna
teur. In year or two possibly
they will be saying that Jones will
never win and he will then possibly
step out and win both, including
the NDritish.
When Harold Hilton. as a young
| ster. won the British open he wal
picked year after year to win the
British amateur, but more than ten
years passed before all concerned
finally decided that Hilton wouit
never win that classic. whereupor
