fessed to RifIing

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Miss Julia
Eliza Bruins, an actress who is
said to have had roles in New York
and London stage productions. is
under arrest, charged with grand
larceny.
Miss Bruins, who is twenty-eight
years old, was accused by Detec-
tfves Charles Dinegar of the lost
property bureau and John O'Brien
of the narcotic division with the
theft of $4,000 of jewelry from Mrs.
Katherine Smith, of Chicagoa

cupied Miss Bruins apartment dur
ing the summer after the rooms
were rented for her by her brother,
Lieutenant William G.. Marsh of the
third district bureau of communica-
tions, u. s. A. They said Mrs.
Smith frequently missed small
pieces of jewelry, but because Of
their insignificant value did not re-
port the loss.
Early in September Mrs. Smith
returned from a visit, to Sound
Beach and found more small things
missing, whereupUn she packed her
trunks and moved to the Plaza
Hotel, preparatory to going to Sara
sofa, Fla. She left her trunks in
the apartment. the police said, or
dering them sent to Florida on a
certain d. te. According to the po.
lice, a few days ago they got
telegrap.1ic word from Mrs. Smith
that the trunks had been rifled of
jewelry worth $4,000.
Visits to pawnshops, the detec-
tives said, resulted in the recovery
Of several pieces of the 1eWelry,
which they were told were left by
a young woman named Burns"
They got the latter's description
and arrested the actress.
Miss Bruins refused to leave her
apartment unless the police per
mitted her to be accompanied by
two dogs, a chow named Babe and
a police dog called Won Hinderberg.
They consented. In the East Sixty
seventh street police station, they
said, Miss Bruins admitted the
thefts, saying she committed them
to purchase drugs.
