GETS HONEY BACK LOST IN ROBBERY Tapping Recovers $438 of $568 Found in Smarcas’ Possession By agreement between counsel, George Tapping, of Bristol, who was robbed of $562 on the night of Oc- tober 30, 1926, in Bristol, was today awarded $428 which was found in possession of Kasimer Smarcuz when the latter was arrested in the wooded section near Shuttle Meadow lake on Nov. 1, 1926. Tapping iden- tified the money at the local police station following the arrest of Bmar- cusz, John Tadisco and Anthony Hu- beny, some of the bills having strips torn from them according to Tap- ping's description before he saw the money found on Smarcuz, and this fact was established whén the money was closely examined. In the court of common pleas to- day, a hearing was to have been held in the action of Tapping against Ed- ward J. Hickey, county detective, the money taken from Smarcuz having been in Hickey's custody. Attorney Thomas F. McDonough of this city represented Willlam Mintish, a local insurance agent, who brought an ac- | tion of garnishee against Smarcuz as a pesult of'the theft of Mintish's car | and damage done to it. Judge Willlam J. Malone, representing Tap- ping, agreed to pay the costs of Min-| tish’s action to date and in consider- ation of this agreement, Attorney McDonough agreed to have the money pald to Tapping. The action of Mintish against Smarcuz, how- ever, i still pending. Among the witnesses summoned were Detective Sergeant Ellinger and Sergeant O'Mara, who figured in the arrests of Smarcuz, Hubeny and Tadisco. They were not called to testify because of the agreement out | of eourt.

The ex- pected stiffening of money rates | with the return of income checks to the banks failed to materialize, and aggressive buying was resumed in Baldwin, General Railway Sig- nal and a few other high priced shares. Investment orders carried Adams Express, American Raflway Ex- press and Eastman Kodak up to new high prices for the year inthe early afternoon, while Chicago Pneumatic Tool advanced 4 points. In the earlier selling wave, pros- pects of more intense competition in the motor trade had forced Studebaker, Moon and White Mo- tors to new low levels for the year and caused a bad break in Mack Truck. This gave bears sufficient ammunition to start raiding tactics, which uncovered a number of stop- loss orders in various groups, and losses of 1 to 2 points were com- mon, with declines of greater pro- portions In specific instances.
