JEWEL ROBBERS USE FAKE ROLL AS RUSE Enter Grand St. Jewelers' Stores and Price Diamonds and Other Trinkets. FLEE WHEN AID COMES. Lead Police Exciting Chase for Many Blocks, but Are Finally Caught.

Two well-dressed men entered the jewelry store of Bernard Brautman, at 697 Grand street, yesterday afternoon, and asked to see some rings. One of them dug a fat roll of out of his pocket, and flipping it carelessly suid: "I have here $1,600 which was left me by an uncle." Mrs. Brautman, the proprietor's wife, was behind the counter, and the roll looked perfectly good to her. When the stranger asked to see some dinmond rings, she reached into a showcase and pulled out a fine stone. The stranger turned it about, watched the light sparkle on the facets, and then deftly slipped it on his third finger.

"Let me see a larger stone," he said. Mrs. Brautman displayed a still finer piece of jewelry. The man put this ring on, too. His companion asked to see a gold watch and chain.

One was handed to him for his inspection. Mrs. Brautman called her husband at this point. Brautman started forward from the rear of the store. The men at once took to their heels.

They hot-footed it along Grand street with Brautman after them, yelling "Stop thief!" On Grand street a detective of the name of Carroll was passing, and he saw the two men running, with the jeweler in close pursuit. He joined in the chase. The fugitives were fleet of foot. They ran to Graham avenue and along that thoroughfare to Metropolitan avenue. There they sped to Bushwick avenue.

Every block they traversed an army of pursuers fell in behind, until close to a thousand and men and boys were trailing in the rear. Policeman Kassing of the 150th precinct, Policeman James McGlynn of the Stagg street station, and Detectives Sullivan and O'Connor picked up the train one after another, and pressed fleeing men hard. McGlynn was the swiftest, and after the chase bad lasted nearly half a mile be caught them. Crowd Threatened the Prisoners. The great crowd became so threatening that the police were obliged to form a hollow square about the prisoners, and ward off violent hands.

With the crowd struggling and pushing to get at captives, the two were bustled to the Herbert street station. There the prisoners were booked n8 Charles Mayers, 24 years old, of 300 Stockholm street, an ex-jockey, and Arthur Stadtmuller, 17 years old, of 306 Cornelia street. The police found the jewelry still in their possession, and Brautman Identified it as his. An examination of the supposed roll of bills disclosed the fact that it was a "phony" roll, which contained only $52; the rest being brown paper. One of the men had a spring lock and chain.

From this fact the police came to the belief that the men might have been responsible fo: a rohbery which took place recently at the jewelry store of Michael Rosenbaum, at 1366 Broadway, Man ttan. In that case the front door was fastened with a chain and the window smashed, after which some property was taken. The jeweler tried to get out, but the locked door prevented him from doing 90. MRS. ENO THREATENS TO ACT Can't Understand Smith's Failure to Arrest Indicted Men.

Mrs. Alfred J. Eno, chairman of the woman's suffrage party of Queens County, expressed surprise last night at the inactivity of District Attorney Matthew J. Smith of Queens in the matter of the indictments recently found against two young Queens men who were charged with assaulting Mrs. Clara Ellert of Richmond Hill in the Cassidy Club house in Long Island City last December.

The attitude of the District Attorney in failing to arrest the men is rapidly making of the situation a serious public scandal. "If no move is made soon," said Mrs. Eno, by the duly constituted authorities, I will make a move myself. There is no reason why something should not have been done several weeks ago. I am disappointed and surprised.

There seems to be some reason for it all that don't know anything about. A friend of mine in Astoria recently asked the District Attorney whether he would take the matter up and was merely told by Mr. Smith that the latter had "nothIng to say." It was more than two weeks that the Grand Jury returned indictments against the two young men. They are seen daily in the neighborhood of the courthouse and appear to be in no fear of arrest.

Chicago, May 9-A request form Upton Sinclair that the Socialist party establish mourning pickets before 'Standard Oil offices in this city and elsewhere, was rejected by the National Executive Committee of the party. In a statement issued by the committee in response to a telegram received today from Sinclair it was said that the policy was to attack tho capitalist system and not individual capitalists. Sinclair telegraphed in part: "Cannot the Socialist party initiate a nation-wide movement to place mourning pickets before the doors of branch offices of the Standard Oil Company in every city and hank crape on the doors of all Socialist locals?" "Mere bitter resentment or hostile demonstrations against certain individuals will obscure the real issue," declared resolutions passed by the executivo committee.

"Nothing at this time could better serve the purposes of the reactionaries than to have the real issue of capitalism obscured by some viclent outburst of resentment against individuals, which would give the authorities a pretext for drastic measures of repression throughout the country. MOVIE BALLOON THRILLED Landed in East New York and Was Nearly Wrecked. A great deal of excitement was created yesterday afternoon, in the East New York section of Brooklyn, when the Stevens Midget, a balloon owned and operated by Leo Stevens, landed close to the New Lots A Waterworks, situated near Fountain and Blake streets, about a mile distant from. the Old Mill, Jamaica Bay. Mr.

Stevand Miss Pearl White the Pathe Moving Picture Film Company, were the sole occupants of the balloon in its flight, from the Palisades to East New York, passing over Central Park, Riverside Drive, Broadway, the Hudson River, the East River, near the Brooklyn Bridge, Greenwood Cemetery and Prospect Park, on its way. When the balloon started it was at an altitude of 4,000 feet, and when passing Brooklyn, the aircraft was Mi up to over 3,000 feet. Its destination was Mineola, L. but the brewing storm and the wind compelled Mr. Stevens to make a landing as soon as possible, in on open space, away from thickly inhabited sections.

When the balloon landed a crowd of about seven thousand people assembled, streaming from all directions to the spot. The worst part of the trip was after landing. The crowd nearly trampled the aviators to death before the 308 could be forced out of the balloon and the craft itself folded up and put away in the home of J. Hudson, the engineer in charge of the New Lots Waterworks Mr. Hudson and his son-in-law saved the for Miss White and Mr.

Stevens. They kept the crowd away and gave the Pathe people shelter in their until an automobile came to take them away. Miss White was having her picture taken in the balloon for the film, "The Perils of Pauline." The fence around the waterworks was completely torn down by the mob that had gathered.

TALKS TO BIBLE CLASS. Two Swollen Eyes (Gifts of O'Brien) Add Weight to Muscular Christianity Talk. Anthony J. Drexel-Biddle, society leader and pugilist, now a developer of muscular Christianity and of Bible classes, was the star at the banquet of the Drexel-Biddle Bible Class of the Lewis Avenue Congregational Church last night, and at the close had the -time champions groggy and ready the count. Even John Barleycorn unable to make any fora a headway against the swings, jabs and uppercuts launched at him by the disciple of Jack O'Brien and was compelled to quit cold.

The Philadelphia society promoter of the manly art of self-defense was the guest of honor at the first annual dinner of the Bible class and his remarks, which were delivered in the most approved pugilistic style, drew forth a storm of applause from his youthful listeners. "Tony" Biddle, as he is more familiiarly known to his friends, appeared at the banquet wearing two badly eyes and a slight scar on his forehead, which, he admitted, were the product of his most recent encounter with "Philadelphia" Jack O'Brien, only a half dozen, hours before. O'Brien had come him shortly before starting for Brooklyn, he said, and requested him to box a few rounds for the benefit of some friends of his, to which he had agreed. Pugilist Tells Story of His Change of Heart. The Rev.

Frank I. Hanscom, who presided at the banquet, introduced Mr. Biddle as a man who six years ago had known as little of a church as a heathen-and cared less. He nad become interested in Bible class work by accident, he said, and now his classes embrace a membership of more than 30,000 and extend from Rhode Island to Texas. Biddle told the story of his reincarnation, himself, it in fighting style, swinging his muscular arms and massive shoulders as though actually engaged in a personal encounter with an opponent in the prize advancing, and side-stepping with all retreating the agility of an adept at tie "Six years ago I was not a churchhe began, "and I intend to tel.

man," you the story of how I became one. "When I was 12 years old I was a little shaver, weak with the dregs of consumption. My people gave miserable all hope for me and I was shipped away to die. I knew they thought I was going away to die, for heard them say it. They didn't think I did, big but I did.

Little pitchers have ears, you know. But I clinched my teeth and I said 'I'll fool them. I'll fool them all. I'll get the best of them and I'll come back alive!" Despised at School, Biddle Says. The speaker swung a few hay-makers at imaginary onnonent and continued: I had shipped to the coast of Madagascar, where send the consumptives, and I managed to come back next spring alive, I was sent of to boarding school.

There I was the most hated of all boys. My, how they hated me! little they said: see that little cuss, that we want nothing to do with I was taken sick with astluna, but as I lay in bed at nights I consoled myself with the thoughts of how I would get well and strong and of how was going to ilck those boys when grew up. I was mean through it all, and that was because I didn't have Christ in my heart. "When I got well I began to fight. My nose was broken and my chest caved in, but I didn't care sO long as I could fight.

I wanted to fight. Meanness Cropped Out All the Time, He Says. "After awhile I grew big and strong, and when I was 16 I was SO strong and big that the boys wanted to put me on the football team. And I was glad of that, so that when they asked me to play I could say no. That shows how mean and small I was then.

I didn't have Christ in my soul." The speaker then went on to say that at 18 he had entered the prize-ring and fought with professional fighters, and that he had taken Jake Kilrain's place at a bout when the latter failed 10 show up. Later he entered business. where his meanness, and his brutal methods still stuck him, he declared, and he tried to get the best of people by beating them down and taking advantage of them. "I hated my fellow -men, but I hated myself most of all." he declared vebemently. "Then a beautiful girl married Ina goodness don't.

Later I nad little children, but as they began to grow they got no light. was bully to them and to my wife. When they came near me I shouted at them, 'out of my I did not have Christ my soul yet. I was a perfect devil my note a murderer of souls. in That's what I was." Converted to Bible Class Work.

Mr. Biddle then went on to tell how he had given up business after a time and taken his first real vacation in several years. He told of a number of experiences that had befallen him in his travels around the world and opened his eyes to the fact that the bully and the strong man were not always the best fighters. The speaker told of his visits to a Bible class at the invitation of a minister who was a friend of his and of how he had been impressed by the cordial greetings he had received. it was this which induced him to indorse the work of the Bible class and to foster the movement himself.

Before his talk, Mr. Biddle distributed a number of gold buttons to the permanent members of the DrexelBiddle Bible Class of the church. This is the first and only class of its kind in Brooklyn. Others are now in process of formation. Besides Mr.

Biddle the speakers at the dinner were the Rev. Frank Hanson, Frank Harvey Field and the Rev. Dr. W. W.
