It is evident that at least one of the burglaries committed at Watch Hill less than a month ago was not the work of a finished burglar who is in the business for gain and who does not get cold feet after the commis- sion of crime and leave the booty hid~ den in the woods, especially when the stolen stuft is not over-bulky. The silver and plated ware taken from the cottage of Mrs. A. R. Adams, of New York, at Watch Hill on the night of August 28th, last, has been recovered and is now in the Westerly police sta- tion in the custody of Chlef of Police Thomas E. Brown and awaiting identi- cation by the owner. The list of stol- en articles given the police the day after the theft included eighty-three pieces of plated and thirteen pieces of sterling silver table ware. There are seventy-three pleces at the police sta- tion guswering the description of the missing articles, including those mark- ed A, apd the police believe that all that ‘'was stolen has been recovered, as the find includes some sterling sil ver articles as described. Here is the list of articles recovered: Eieven tea spoons marked A, five $oup spoons, six table spoons, twenty- four forks, of five designs, eleven but- ter knives, four oyster forks, four fish forks, two ladles, cheese knife, ice cream knife, olive fork, six coffee spoons and two salad forks: alsp, a combined clgar clipper and lighter. The stolen articles were found in a swampy section of woods at Sup-up Heights, near Pleasant View, Sunday afters on, by Arthur O'Neill, who was taking a stroll through the woods. He noticed a paper wrapped bundle on the ground, among some underbrush. He gave it a gentle kick, heard a jingle and felt of the contents. He was imme- diately satisfled that the bundle con- tained table ware, and he thought of the recent burglaries at Watch HIll Mr. O'Nelll hurried to Westely and reported the find ta Policeman Michael Curtin, and = returned to Sup-Up Heights with the officer in an automo- bile. The bundle was brought to the police station and delivered to Chiet Brown. = First the silver was wrap- ped in a towel with a red border and the words Kitchen Cloth in red run- ning across the center. ~Over this was a gingham apron of a bluish check, that had the appearance of having been worn in connection with kitchen work. A copy of The New York Times of August 20, served as the out- side wrapper. Under the supposition that the fel- low who robbed from the Adams cot- tage was the same who made a more| valuable haul from the Bettle cottage, on the previous night, Chief Brown de- tailed Policeman Curtain to make a thorough search of the woods for more boosy, Monday, but none was found. Chie?’ Brown has requested _ several men who visit the woods in that sec- tion to keep a weathdr eye out for bundles of any description, and to note any discovery of recent digging, or in fact anything out-of the ordinary, that might lead to the recovery of the rest of the stolen property.

HOUSE TO HAVE WOMAN SUFFRAGE COMMITTEE Which Will Have Charge of All Suf- frage Bills. ‘Washington, Sept. 24—Creation of a woman suffrage was ordered by the house late today by a vote of 181 to 107. The ways and means committee will name the personnel of the new committee which will assume charge of all euffrage billy; now handled by the strongly anti-suffrage judiciary committee. Either Representative Raker of California, or Representative Taylor of Colorado probably will be made chairman. Miss Rankin of Mon- tanna has been suggested, but as she is a republican, she is not likely to be named. Creation of the committee, for which the euffragists long have contended, assures an early fight on the Susan B. Anthony suffrage amendment at the next session of congress. Both seuf- fragists and anti-suffragists say they are anxious that the bill be reported as they are confident of victory on the floor. The antls, headed by Chairman Webb, of the judiclary committee, made 'a hard fight today against the resolution. They maintained that its adoption would b taken as an endorse- ment of White House picketing and that 1t was unnecessary inasmuch as the judiciary committee planned to report the amendment resolution early in the next session. Miss Rankin and Representative Pou, chairman of the rules committee, who reported the resolution, made the principal speeches for it. Mr. Pou declared that Preaident Wilson _had written him urging the naming of the committee and when Mr. Webb said he did not think the president ever made such a statement, Mr. Pou pro- duced the letter. It was read. The senate suffrage _committee, which is inactive, has been organized for several years. ‘While the house was voting four of the women's party so-called pickets ‘were arrested for displaying ban- ners before the White House.
