This information was disciosed in chambers this morn- ing when Frank, with nine year old | Ladislaw Blaskaski, was arraigned on and entering store on Myrtle street | Sunday night. Officer John Kennedy arrested the two boys last evening, fol- lowing an investigation. . : The boys explained that they broke C.B"a‘d Orioublie Skorks, : | City hall. a piece of glass out of Kennedy’s store i window and then reached in and took ! what they could find. Their loot con- sted of a dozen bottles of vanilla, a couple packages of rolled oats, a box of writing paper and some en- velopes. Of the two brought before Judge Meskill this morning, the Nedwicki boy was alone in his feat of picking |, a pocket at the depot. The boy told of taking the man’s watch, which he subsequently sold to another boy for twenty cents, and also of taking his pocket book which was empty. A check that the man had in his pocket was destroyed by the boy.

A Hartford man who claimed be the owner of the valuable fur stolen by Stanley Fedorczek and pawned at Bessie Feingold’s pawn shop, visited police headquarters last night with a message from Chief Gar- rett J. Farrell of the Hartford police to ask for the return of his coat. Captain Grace informed the man that his coat was still at the pawn- to coat the $7 due on it. against paying for the return of his own property, but was informed that the local police, when they secure a pawn broker as state’s evidence to give testimony against crooks, guar- antee the redemption money. The Hartford man was somewhat indig- nant and declared he would not pay the $7 but would obtain his coat through civil action by a writ of re- plevin. GORBACH NAMED. Defeats Gans in Contest for Ward Council Vacancy. Abraham Gorbach, secretary and treasurer of the Title, Realty and De- velopment company, was nominated for councilman in the Sixth ward last evening, filling the vacancy caused by the resignation of Councilman Wil- liam J. Smith. Mr. Gorbach had one opponent, George Gans of West street, and when the ballots were counted it was seen that the former was a winner by 49 to 37. Mr. Gor- bach will probably be sworn in at to- morrow night's meeting of the coun- cil. Owing to the absence of some of the Fourth ward members of the common council no action was taken last night to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Councilman Da- vid A. Wicander and the meeting was postponed.. Charles A. Bence is the only candidate thus far mentioned in connection with the vacancy. Sixth REDDING VOTING OFF TIE.

At a meeting of the safety board it was voted to give him a Ppension of $100, but payment was sel filed an opinion that the safety board has no right to specify the pen- sion money of a fireman as the char- ter provides that the pension board shall have charge of such matters. It was the opinion of the board last eve- ning that the safety board has the right to recommend whom shall be pensioned and the amount, and then it is up to the pension board to ac- cept or reject the proposal. Who Is Boss?—Steele. Edward H. Parker, the fire depart- ment representative on the pension board, interjected some fireworks into last night's session when he took a slap at Clerk Alfred E. Magnell on the ground that the clerk had refused to Parker claimed that as a member of certain reports of the fire deportment without having to fight for them.

Bachman Or Carlson. Tonight the safety board will hold a meeting at which a regular policeman will be appointed, as will a fireman to take the captaincy at No. 3 Engine house.' It is understood that of the candidates for Bachman, former park policeman and Gustave Carlson ore the favorites with the commissioners. This will prob- ably be Mr. Carlson’s last chance at a regular appointment as he will shortly pass beyond the age limit for appoint- ment as regular policeman. He is a well known supernumerary police- man. There are several other candi- dates. ‘Who Will Be Captain? There is some speculation as to which one of the three, Lieuttnant Watts, Lieutenant Higgins or Fireman Michael Butler, will be named captain at No. 3 house. Each of these men attained a high civil service average, although Watts was the highest. Physically, there is no choice of the three as each attained the same physical average. The dif- ference in their total averages is the result of the written examinations, so the appointment v man the commi fitted for the job. MOBILIZATION OF ALL GERMAN MALES Every Able Bodled Man Must .

Safety Commissioner Howard M. Steele then put his oar into the surg- ing ers by exclaiming with pointed significance: “Who is running the safety board?” Clerk Magnell asked who the clerk of the pension board might be and the mayor replied that the safety board clerk has that honor. Mr. Mag- nell took issue with this statement and said there was no provision made for it, whereupon His Honor at once appointed Mr. Magnell. The firemen’s pension fund now amounts to $7,700 but if present plans are put into effect this amount will soon bt cut down so much that the in- come of the fund will have to g ma- terially increased.

This report has not been confirmed officially. In order to swell the ranks of Fran- cis Joseph’s armies and also for the purpose of increasing the industrial efficiency of the empire, the Austro- Hungarian authorities have deprived the Hungarian Gypsies of freedom of locomotion and have forced the able- bodied men of the tribes to join the colors. German newspapers in an- nouncing the issuing of the orders ef- fecting this radical change in the life of the nomads, say that the “Gypsy question” had been worrying the Aus- tro-Hungarians ever since the begin- ning of the war, and express satisfac- tion at the way in which it has been settled. The order of the minister of the interior, which is almed merely at the wandering Gypsies who have no per- manent abode, first of all forbids them to wander about, and takes steps to see that this order is obeyed. These Gypsies are conscripted at the places where they are found, and after the fighting men have been enrolled in the army the rest of the tribe is prevented from exercising ‘“wander- lust” through the process of having its horses placed at the disposition of the military authorities and being forbidden to buy any draft animals in the future without the special per- mission of the police. All the men between 18 and 50 vears of age not fit for military ser- vice, as well as the women of the tribe, are enrolled for work at fur- nishing supplies.

The families of the Gypsies in the® army receive the regular allowance, under the same conditions. Every Gypsy over 12 years old has a place of abode assigned to him from which he cannot move with- out the permission of the police. All these wanderers have been carefully examined as to their physical con- dition, with a view to the preventiog preading of infectious diseases. The German press adds that the Gyp- sies are receiving every inducement to give up their wandering life and become useful citizens. NO INSPECTION TODAY. Wet Weather Defeated Plans of Board of Public Works, Wet weather today defeated tha plan of the board of public works for the annual fall inspection of the streets. The department follows the custom of a twice a season inspection, | going aver the streets in the spring to | discover their condition and learn where repairs and new work is most needed and again in the fall before snow flies an inspection is made ang~ progress noted. This year considerable macadam work has been done despite the labor shortage. Rhodes, Chapman Park Elxtension and CIiff streets have been macadamized, also Cottage Place, and Stanley street between Hartford avenue and Allen street has "h(‘on resurfaced. Oak street is last big macadam job of the s and is now well under way. street has been permanently paved This job was delayed and was slow in | completion, owing to strikes and scarcity of labor, but the street is now in first class condition. On Arch street semi-permanent pavement has beed laid and the samg, kind of work is being done on Jubilée street and should be completed in the meag future, With the season about over it |1s apparent that the board of publfe works will have a large balance in the treasury as several big jobs planned for this year will have to go over.
