Churles’ hotel ill Scran- ton, wns induced to come to Bridgeport by one of the gang of swlndiers under the pretence that. be was one of a party of capitalists Interested in Tennessee lumber lands. While here a fake prize- ilght was pulled off under the grand stand at Nutmeg Park, Stratford. and one, of the gang, who pretended be had lost heavily Oil the fight. borlowed $5.- 000 fronl Hoznagle. Later it was agreed that another light between the some men should be held in Bosnia and l-Iolzuugle was Induced to place $15,000 in the hands oi the backer of the de« feated luau ill the first light. On the re- ceipt of the money the members of the gang disappeared, Charles Goudoli‘l‘ be- ing the only one so far apprehended. Two of Gondollf's pals were men sup- posed to be T. F. Cuduhy. the. meal packer, ulld ills son. The matter was reported to the New York police. and shortly afterwards the Inuit suposed to be "young Cudully" Was arrested in New York. H turned out to be Goudoltf, whose p cture is well known in the New York rogues' gallery. ills brother, Charles (ioudoiff. is under arrest and is held in ball of $25,000 on the charge of having swiu died William F.

For several days past. the local po- lice ilave been working on the case. attempting to obtain some truce through the $5,000 limit placed III ”II Bridgeport Trust company, endorsed by Fritz Holzllagle and “William llialr." A well-known local cafe-keeper was examined by the police in con- nection with the affair. The cafe-keeper greatly alarmed do olarcd that he had nothing to do with the gangs lll question beyond introduc- ing one or We of the members of it at the Bridgeport Trust. company. It. seems that several days before Hoiznaglc received the telegram cull, illg him to Bridgeport, several mom-- bers of the gang were in this city, making preparations for the coming of the victim. Through the local cafe- owner they were introduced at the Bridgeport Trust company as “men who might do business with tile colu- pany a little later." When liolzuugle arrived. he was in- tillced to put his $5.000 cash ill the Bridgeport Trust Company and the confidence man had no dliliculty ill cashing it. having already been prop- erly introduced. A full stutcluentof the affair was laid before the local police last Thurs- day by Holznagle. who visited Bridge- port for that purpose. lie was accom- panied by Ills lawyer Attorney John M Coleman. of 115 Broadway New York The police are sure that the men who robbed Holzllagle are the identical ones who swindled William F.

Y., July 29.——The author" tiles are awaiting with much interest the return to this city today of Car- rie Weaver, the girl chum of Hazel Drew. They feel certain that Miss Weaver will materially aid them ill finding some tangible clue in tracing. the person or persons supposed to be responsible for Miss Drew's death on the night of July 7. A few days be fore the tragedy at Teal Pond Miss Weaver went to Ohio to visit Ic’lutives, but hel mention being over she Is now returning. A dispatch has been receiv- ed llere containing a statement by Miss Weaver in which silo wondered how Hazel Drew managed to livetso well, to have so many fine dresses. and to take so many pleasure trips to sur- rounding cities. Miss Weaver added that she never saw Hazel ill the colu- pauy of a man. and that her chum told lleI she hall no SW(’ctllt‘i'.ilt "She could make a dollal go further than any woman 1 ever saw," said Miss Weaver. “Her salary was only a little more than mine. yet I never could manage to buy as fine bats and as swell costumes as she did. let alone the luncheons at fashionable res- taurants, and the frequent trips she made ollt of town. From what Iluzct told me, she must have had an awfully good time when she went away frolu home. She said not the slightest at- tempt was ever made anywhere to of- fer her an insult. She knew how to take care of herself. but from what our little trips together cost 1 know that. she must have spent i| great deal of money on pleasures of this kind OUR STATE POLITICO. ._.... Alexander Troup Took M’Neil Beom Too Seriously. One of the most interesting com- manta» of recent data on the 'l‘roup’Mc; Neil matter is given in the Springfield Republican by that paper's Connecti- cut ”correstpondeut. Mr. 'l‘roup takes more seriously than anyone else has done the attempt to make Mr. McNeil of Connecticut the candidate for vice-president. There has been little indication tiloi anybody cared about it except politicians who wanted it for political purposes. Mt. McNeil is u goodulun; he has been a good deal talked Of as a candidate for governor, and would doubtless make a good one, but his best friends would be puzzled to know what he has done that made him a natural candidate for the second place on the Democratic national ticket. Connecticut did not pick him out, and when it was inti— mated that ou account of a political combination he might be nominated people generally tobk a very Illild in« terest III the possibility. Some of them laughed, but not exactly at the name of Mr. McNeil. What amused them was the glimpse at the game of politics; and particularly the assumption that they should be expected to take it. meant for their pleasure and the glory of the state. liut Mr. Troup at present is having the time of his life. He is pretty near the center of the stage and he has managed to become a very con- spicuous figure in what is called the Democratic party without ever ceasing to maintain that he is a greenbacker as much as he ever was. Alld this is doubtless true. llis financial notions are as wild as they were. when he call- ed himself a greenbackcr. or as those he accepted provisionally when he took up iiryau's cry for silver. in one sense tilts is treating the sub- Ject more seriously than it deserves. Men of It certain type are lncupuble of large judgments of public questions. iiul they may be keen at catching a popular sentiment and efficient in put- ting themselves at the head of a move— ucllt which represents a popular i‘cel~ “II;- 'l‘hns they may become useful if the feeling itself has a solid founda- tion. even if they know no more of fundallIentul plillciples than the men who first gave it expression“ On the other nanl their leadership may ruin a really good cause. Much of the Door nlld for the life of me i don‘t see how she managed to save enough from her wages.” Prosecutor 0‘ liriell confidently ex- pects that Miss Wdaver will be table to give facts about the dead girl' at bub- lts and associates that will ultimately enable them to solyy.I the mystery of the killing of llazel Dre-w. Subpoenas were. being served todm for the III- quiry ilcrc tomorrow. and it is quite likely that Carrie Weaver will be call- cd to ulvtI lu-r tcstllllouy before Coro- ner Stropc. It is expected that tho Inquest will be closed ut tomorrow's session. | SfTATE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION Will Be Held In New Haven Septem bar 8 and 9.

If Mr. lIryan can meet these requirements he is a suitable man to be elected. So, on the same 'onditious, In Mr. Taft. The essential diffelcnce home on the pultles Is not in atom-d principles so lunch as ill the disposition and ability of the candl- datcs to do certain work Mr. 'l‘aft‘s disposition will be checked by party tradition and interest; Mr liryan‘s ability to accomplish the work is hard- ly to be infelred from anything he. has yet done All this may be (beck to Mr. 'l‘roup, but it is worth understand- ing by a man who- assumes to speak with authority. In this as in many other things poll il‘cs counts for mole than any populnl feeling. One of the others is tllc pro littSt‘tl renomlnatlon of Gov. \‘I’oodruff. As far as i can learn. there is no doubt or It pretty common desire among vot— crs not in politics that he should be rcuomlnuted. but these man have no organization; they do not know how to play the game Tile others do. and have most of the election machinery ill their hands. Therefore it has been ev- idcllt from the outset tllut there is no hope of Gov. Woodruif being chosen by the Republican convention unless the differences among the party managers make it worth the while of one faction to support him because it cannot beat the others with its own candidate. The. contest is still between Lilloy and Lake. There Is an effort to have it. ap- pear that the business lllell are against Lilley but there is little evidence that this represents anything more than the control of one or two business or- ganizations by actiye politicians 'Oile article on the subject says‘ that the opposition to Lilley ‘is increasing by leIIps and bounds, and were it not for the pledges made by professional pol lticians" a war ago to support MriLil- iey, he would not have a show. But just here is the meat of the situation. He was promised the nomination—ran such things are promised—mud it is safe to assume that that is only one part of a eonrlrehensive plan which will be car- rier through if its makers have esti- mated tllcir strength correctly. As a rule they have done so. and when they have made a mistake they have show- ed ingenuity and promptucss in dim- inishing or obscuring such defeat as they have suffered. There is not much to indicate that they anticipate failure this time. If there were a sufficient demonstration of popular feeling to in- spire doubc of success they might take Gov. Woodruff. but that demonstration has not been made and is not likely to be.
