EMPLOYEE CONFESSES, Admits He Suggested the Plan —Allowed Himself to Be Tied Up. An old trade dollar in whose powers as @ talisman its owner had great faith led to the clearing up of the Stern robbery case, The pawnshop of Adolph Stern was robbed on January 20 last and $10,000 worth of loot taken. As the police heard the story three men entered the place and at the point of pistols tied up the son of the proprietor and the two clerks Morris Dickler and Edward Schwartz. The robbers then went through the place at their leis- ure. The detectves of the Harlem Branch of the Detective Bureau on East One Hundred and Sixteenth Street worked on the case for weeks, but the results were nil beyond the fastening of sus- picion on the clerk, Dickler. On one of his visits to the pawnshop Mike Meyers, one of the sleuths, said of Dickler: “I won't be satisfied till I have put the nippers on you and taken you to Headquarters.” Dickler only grinned and protested his innocence, One night about a week ago three Italian gunmen entered the Httle bakery on One Hundred and Sixth Street, near Second Avenue, and ordered something to eat. The pro- prietor of the place knew the char- acter of his customers and treated them with every consideration, When they got up one of the number, An- tonio Di Lalla, gave a coin in pay- ment for the refreshments. It was a coin to which the proprietor was not accustomed, but he took it without a murmur. Di Lalla told him it was a good dollar and he asked no questions. Next day the bakery man visited the Detective Bureau on One Hun- dred and Bixteenth Street and showed the coin to Capt. Jones, the head of the branch. Jones questioned him closely, Then he gave him a green- back for the coin, which was a trade dollar, and told him to keep his mouth shut, The captain recognized the coin as having been stolen from the pawn- shop of Adolph Stern, It had be- longed to an elderly man, who had carried it as @ pocket piece for more than twenty years, It was his talis- man, He valued {t above almost any- thing else he owned. He became obsessed with the idea that he was going to lose the coin, #0 he took it to Stern's shop and pawned it. It lay in Stern's safe for several years. When the robbers went through the safe they took it with the rest of the booty. The arrest of Di Lalla followed soon and he made a confession implicating | Dicker. Dickler had left the em- ploy of Stern and was running @ hand book on the races. The detectives found him last night at 116th Street and Lenox “Avenue and arrested him. | Au Evening World reporter was al- lowed to talk with Dickler to-day The young man was thoroughly con . ants SE Continued on Second Page.) —<———__—— The World Travel Bi BELMONT-ANDREWS WEDDING CHARMS NEWPORT SOCIETY Ceremony Before Improvised Altar in Rockry Hall, Bride’s Home.

LONDON, Aug. 14.—Although the rumors concerning the Russian campaign which come from Petrograd and Berlin are in sharp vonfliet, there are two reports which have aroused the hopes of the allies to a high ; degree. One is that a large German force suffered two defeats in the Courland region, that a considerable caught in the Grand Duke’s trap and is in danger of being wiped out or captured, The second cheering report was in a despatch to the Times from Petrograd announcing that a large German cruiser had been destropet in the battle yesterday at the entrance to the Gulf of Riga, Reports from both Petrograd a of Kovno is under steady fire and that von Hindenburg and von Macken- sen are both making progress. Petrograd claims th&t the Germans¢@——————_ have been checked between Ponie- wesch and Dvinsk. Berlin does not concede this, but in any event it does not affect the advance of the flanks further north, Steady progress for the forces of Prince Leopold of Bavaria eastward from Warsaw is taken here to Indi- cate that the Germans are now maas- ing their main movements on a drive through the Russian centre and tho continuance of the enveloping effort in the north, along the Dvina. Both Petrograd and Berlin agree that the Germans have occupied the towna of Bokolow, Siedice and Lukow, forming a German front about sixty miles east of Wardaw and fifty miles wide.
