At the trial of Police Captain Cottrell, three detective sergeants and two “policemen, who are charged with neglect of duty at the fu- neral of Mr. Gracte, on Noy. 27, when A. B. Deming. an alleged crank, was al- lowed to fet to President Roosevelt, it was brought out to-day that the men are on trial because of a criticism made of the Police Department bv President Roosevelt. It was brought out also that the President was vreatly dis- Pleased at the presence of Deming and turned to Commissioner of Police Greene and asked with some show of heat: “How is it possible for a man to de- liver a letter to me in this way?" Tt was brought out at the trial also that Mrs, Roosevelt identitled Deming as the man who hid approached her husband. She had pointed him out to Folice Inspector Brooks and asked that he be arrested The trial of the accused Captain, Captain, sergeants and policemen was Deputy Cimmisstoner Ebdstein, The charges were preferred by Deputy Com missioner Davis, who had been instruct- ed to make them by Commissioner Greene The trial room at Police Headquarters was crowded with witnesses when the trial began, ‘The first Witness was Ins Spector Brooks.

By self-confession the seventeen-year- old beauty $s a systematic and ra- nactous burglar. " “I'm not a criminal.” protested the eirl to an Evening World reporter to- day. ‘I take thingw I like.

Arti- cles of wearing apparel were appro- priated, but the crime for which sne ja held for the Grand Jury is that ot turglarlzing the house of Mrs. Simons, of Hiizabeth. In a confession to Chiet Kelly the girl told a strange tale of ner robbing instinct. Into the Simons house the girl crept after having removed a pano of glass, With the daring of an experienced man burglar she ransacked the house, taking among other things, a sult, ovat, silver spoons, silver watch and the contents of a child's bank, Questioned to-day the girl opened very large black eyes which bear the look of a wild and unconquered bird, and said: “Why not? I have to live. Why should 1 not have the things 1 want? I was made with the desire for comforts and pleasure, Why Is it a crime for me to get them? My people are poor and 4 do not like the life of a poor girl 4 have lived in the woods and I love to rove about without restraint. She Hates Men, “{ want freedom, and because I do not live up to the laws some men has made they put me in jail. “I hate men, They would mot have caught me if 1 had not been so tired.” When the Simons house was burglar- {zed there was not the least clue to the identity of the robber.
