BRISTOL, March 2.—-As the result
of a raid by the police late yesterday
on the home of Christopher Albrecht
in this city, and the arrest of several
members of the family the authorities
believe they have brOught to a close
11 series of clothesline and other petty
thefts which they say have been going
on for several months. Those under
arrest are Christopher Albrecht, aged
50. and his three sons, William, 23,
George 20. and Edward. 17. They are
held without bonds for a hearing in
police court today on charges of theft.

in addition the police while not
formally arresting two daughters of
Albrecht aged 18 and 12 ., respectively,

notified them to appear in court to
marrow with their father to answer
to theft charges.

When the police left the Albrecht
home alter a thorough search they
took away with them three trunks
and a suit case filled with wearing ap-
parel and flnery of various kinds,
which the police allege have been pil-
f‘ered from clotheslines about the city
and from other 'places. At police
headquarters six persons appeared in
response to word from the chief of
policé and identified some of the prop-
erty recovered as theirs. A large
amount remains yet to be identified.
Mrs. Albrecht is an invalid and the
police don't think she had had any
connection with the alleged stealings.

the advice of the attorney-general re-

The women appointed tomake the in-

commission to require them to pro-
