(Spectal to The Evening World.) EWPORT. R. [., Jan, 11.—Ambitious crooks of New York and Boston who aspire to {naugurate thelr twentieth century campaign by illegal acquisition of Vanderbiit-French wedding presents or by the deft transfer of pocketbooks or Jewelry of wedding guests, might as well refrain from purchasing tickets for Newport. Chief of Police Richards has had his regular staff augmented by scores of Keen-eyed men from Headquarters tn New York and Boston. These smiling gentlemen ride down in cabs to meet every boat and train, They inspect ail passengers with sharp but unobtrusive attention. If they see no “old friends” among the arrivals they enter thelr cabs and go up town again, to repeat the per formance Inter. G wding the Gifts. But for fear that any members of the fraternity might mixs them and make their way to the Aquidneck Bank, a aystem of Inspection has been tnaugu- rated which requires, every fifteen min- utes of the daw and night, a call and a Tesponse that everything ts all right In the vaults where are deposited the costly wedding presents. As for Harbor View, Chief Richards said to-day: It ts absolutely impors! ble for a thtef to gain entrance to the villa day or night.” This statemett ought to carry welmht. At ts made by a man who has attended every function given in Newport in the He knowa sonally every guest who will attend the wedding. He served for years on the New York police force. Literally there is “nothing doing" hero eT latmfalatey init St St St Set Pre for the fraternit: The Honeymoon. How many young men in New York would spend thelr honeymoon on a farm if they were individuallly possessed of 0,000,000 and could command at will special trains, palatial yachts, town houses or even hotels? The suspicion grows among the inti- mate friends of Alfred Gwynn Van- derbilt and Elste French that they in- tend to slip quietly away next Monday afternoon, take a special train at Wick- ford Junction, wi across country to Providence vin the Moston line, and finally reach the Vanderbilt (arm, near Portsmouth and five miles as the crow files from The Breakers. It ts conoeded that young Mr. and Mrs. Vanderbilt intend to surprise their friends, and this it 1s belleved, Is to be the surprise.
