DETECTIVE HALTS
Where Yer Going, My Pretty
Maids? Te Elkton, Sir,
They Said
YOUTH AROUSED SUSPICION
Twe pairs of youthful elopers, hurry
ing for the "Honeymoon Express" and
Elkton-bound, were picked up today in
Bread Street Station by Detective
Owens.
Beth girls arc pretty. It was their
youth that led the detective te sus
pect that th'ey might be' under nge nnd
bent en a runaway marriage.
Owens was sauntering through the
station wnlting room this morning when
tin nnHrprl n venth in n nettv officer s
uniform nnd n dainty little miss, who
looked te be nbeut sixteen, clinging te
his nrmj hurrying in the dircctieu of
the Elkton train.
"Where nre you going, little glrli"
asked Owens.
"Why. we're coins te Elkton te get
married," the girl wild with n bright
smile. She was se happy ever It she
didn't care who knew.
"Hew old nre you?" asked the detec
tive. "I'm eighteen," said the girl.
"I'm sorry." Bald Owens, "but I
think you'd both better come along
with me nnd talk it ever with the enp
taln." In Captain Seudcr's office the little
girl said her name was Ituth Alburger,
that she really was eighteen years old,
and that she lived nt 144 North. Twcn-tv-flfth
fctreet, Camden. The petty of
ficer is Alvin Derick, twenty-five, a
native of Galveston, Tex., but sta
tioned en the hnttlcshlp Maryland at the
I,caguc Island Navy Ynrd.
The detectives cnlled up the girl's
mother, and Mrs. Alburger asked that
Until be held until she nrrlved. The
mother snid she had objected te her
daughter going with Derick. The girl
left home this morning, the mother said,
te ke te her place of emplejincnt in
Philadelphia. IiiBtcad she nnd Derick
had bought their tickets and the wedding
ring.
The second girl brought in by Owens
wus Miss Margaret Curran, also eight
een years, who gave nn address en
North Eleventh sticct, which the police
belicvt! is fictitious. A detective was
'sent there, but no one bccmcd te knew
the girl. The yetitn who was en ins
wuy with her te Elkton said he wus
Itussell Lccky, twenty-two, of 12114
Steward street.
Miss Currnn nttrncted Owens' . at
tention, as the ether girl had, by her
appearance of yeuthfulncbs. The same
illnlegup between the detective arid the
pictty girl led te another trip te Cap
tain Soulier's office. The detectives
hue net been nble te learn very much
us yet about the second oleplng pair.
Beth girls were well dressed.

DOUBLE ELOPEMENT
BOOKBINDER RESTS
FATE WITH JURORS;
OFFERS NO DEFENSE
i
Rum Smuggling Test Case De
velops Inte Technical
Legal Contest
JUDGE THOMPSON REFUSES
TO DIRECT AN ACQUITTAL
Counsel for Emanuel Boekbinder,
restaurant owner, astonished the Fed
eral prosecutor in Judge Thompson's
court today by announcing no wit
nesses would be called for the defense.
The case went te the jury nt 12:55
P. M., after a lengthy nnd technical
charge by Judge Thompson, who left it
with the jurymen te decide whether
Boekbinder had known thnt liquor in
his possession was smuggled.
Boekbinder is charged with Illegal
possession of liquor nnd smuggling
liquors into this country in violation
of the customs laws.
During the long legal arguments,
Boekbinder strummed nervously en a
table and held whispered conferences
with his battery of lawyers. He seemed
te have a geed working knowledge of
the law himself. a
"Prison Term? Oil, Bey!"
At one point, .Boekbinder asked nnx nnx
ieusly if be could be jailed if cdnvlctcd
of liquor possession. Then told a heavy
fine was mere probable in that event,
he remarked:
"A fine wouldn't menn nnything te
me. It would be just like losing n but
ton. But n nrlsen sentence eh, boy!"
After the jury's retirement some one
told Boekbinder that the jury probably
would go eat before beginning te de
bate their verdict.
"Tliey could go cat nt my expense,"
said Boekbinder with a grin. "I, have
a nice restaurant. They'd get a geed
shore dinner, with maybe- semrthlnc en
the side who knows? And it wouldn't
cost them n cent." '
Judge Questions Prosecutor
A crisis in the trial came when Judge
Thompson called en Assistant United
States Attorney Wade te state hew he
would proceed with the second count
of the indictment, that referring te
smuggling.
Twe courses were open te the prose
cution. One was te prcs for convic
tion under the Velstead act, which pro
hibits the possession nnd concealment of
Imported liquors. The ether course wns
te prosecute under the customs laws.
Mr. Wude elected te proceed under
the Velstead act. It was believed this
decision was prompted by the unex
pected testimony yesterday of Merris
Hertz, Camden saloonkeeper, who said
he had imported the liquors hcized from
Boekbinder.
Legal Battle Is Waged
Boekbinder's counsel at once con
tended that the Government could
properly try his client en the first count
only. He said no evidence hnd been
produced te prove Boekbinder hud im
ported liquor.
The Court wns nsked te instruct the
jury te return a "net guilty" verdict en
the feccend count, but Judge Thompson
refused te heed this plea of the de
fense. He said the indictment was se
drawn that It covered the importation
of any merchandise contrary te law.
It was n matter for the jury te de
cide, he ruled.

CAMBRIDGE BEATS
PENN RELAY TEAM;
OXFORD
IS THIRD
Stallard Finishes 75 ' Yards
Ahead of Captain Larry
Brown in Last Mile
WINNER'S TIME IS 18:07 2-5,
MUCH SLOWER THAN RECORD
Londen, April 8. Ten thousand
spectators cheering madly every inch
of the race saw the University of Penn
sylvania four-mile relny team finish
second te Cambridge here this afternoon
in the feature event of the Achilles
Club games held en tW.-vO'S'n's Club
trnck. Oxford ran thlWrYThe time of
tiie winner wus 13 minutes 7 U-5 sec
onds. Stallard, of Cnmbriagp, finished seventy-five
yards ahead of .Cntituin Larrv
Brown, of Penn, who led Mllllgun, of
uxierii, ey ten jatus.
Cambridge's time wns 2 U-5 seconds
slower Hum the time made bv Oxford
and Cambridge in lillJ, when they de
feated the University of Pennsylvania
quartet en Franklin Field In a me
morable race dining thu Inst mile be
tween A. N. S. Jacksen and Wallace
McCitrdy.
The result of the lace was predicted
by every sports writer in Englnud. the
eternn Cambridge quartet being given
the edge ever the mere jeuthful runners
fiem America.
Captain Lnwrcnce A. Brown, of tiie
Penn team, ran his mightiest, but failed
te evcrtnke Stallard, the Cambridge
star, wlte had seventy-five yards te
pare when he breasted the tape. Mllli
gun, the Oxford anchor man. who com
peted in America in 1020, finished ten
jnrds behind the Penn runner.
Trnck Ilcaxy
The race was run en a track se
heavy that fiem the start it caused
the athletes te labor mere than they
ate used te. The Penn team wus bun
dlcapcd mere by the slowness of the
truck than wcic the Buteiis, who are
accustomed te running under adverse
conditions.
Cambridge's time for the four miles
wns lti l-fi seconds slower than the i co ce co
ord held jointly and made by Cernell
and the Bosten A. A. This gives an
nocutute idea of track conditions dur
ing the lace.
Cambridge had the lead at every mile
of the race, showing man for man mere
speed and better track running. In
the first mile Penn finished In thlid
plucc, but moved into second en the
second mile and retained that pi. ice
throughout.
Jehti Heir Kaited for Penn and
found the gelns se swift that he could
de no better than tliiid place. Mountain,
the English hulf-niile champion, was
first and Ilewetsen. of Oxford, second.
Saymon Kerr, after taking the baton
from llerr, started after Weeklej, the
-ecend (Kfeid runner, and after the fiiM
half mile passed him and meed Inte
second position. Kerr started a sprint
in the last quarter mile that lueughl
him tip within ten jaids of Tuthnin, of
Cambridge.
Elmer Mel.nne, who holds several
Anglican scholastic records Jn the mile,
was the next Pt nn man te mil, and lie.
like Kerr, was unable te get out in
front, Seasieve, the three-mile cham
pion, finishing in f i out by fifty jards.
Brown's Hard Task
With Stallaul. of Cambridge, the
best college mller in England, having
such a lead te stnit with, Captain
Itiewu hail a herculean tusk te make up
I he distance and win the race. Stal
laul, i nulling with the case and grace
of a man confident of himself, bne.ed
home a winuer by scicuty -lii .Minis.
