UP-STATE TROOPER FINDS sfOLEN CAR Confession Secured From Two Accused Men With Aid of Detective Bureau Local police have recovered the au tomobile of John Schaeffcr, stolen from his home nt Schuylkill Haven on June 22, nnd obtained a confession from the two men arrested forthe theft. This developed today at the hearing of Gardner DeLong, a rclntivc of Schneffer, who lives on Juniper street near Race, and Harry Hohert, twenty one years old, 250S South Hicks street, both of whom arc accused of taking the stolen car. T. L. Dolant n state trooper, of Troop C, stationed nt Pottsvlllc, was assigned to the case when the automo bile was stolen and has worked on it continuously. On Saturday he obtained a clue which led him to believe that DeLong might know something of the theft. He came to Philadelphia nnd reported the matter to the detecthe bureau. Perry Jeffers, a local automobile detective, was as signed to the case. Jeffers, accompanied by Dolan, who knows nothing of Philadelphia streets and addresses, located the car in a garage on Twelfth street nepr Snyder avenue and then arrested DeLong nnd Holier. Jeffers and Dolan testified this morn ing that the two men confessed to Jeffers. They were turned over to Dolan to be taken to Schuylkill county for trial. Both men- arc mechanics and were employed at Baldwin's. They arc said to have stolen dies there to change the car numbers. The men are not impli cated in any other thefts, the detectives say. y The detective bureau here was noti fied at the time of the theft, but no in formation tending to establish that the machine was brought here was found, so only the ordinary lookout for the stolen car was maintained.
