That Enrico Caruso, the noted tenor, is only one of scores of prominent persons who have been arrested for insulting women In the monkey house In Central park was asserted by Deputy Police Commissioner Mathot. In the list of those who have sought adventure in the monkey house and landed in the police statiou, Mr. Mathot said, were clergy men of various denominations, a blsh op, lawyers, musicians, nctors, man agers and bankers, but the prlsoneas were wary ufter their arrests and gave fictitious names. It was In searching them that their Identities were re vea led, but Mr. Mathot said that be cause of the big scandals that would have followed the making public of the real names of the offendersvtliey either were let go or were permitted to appear in the magistrate's court tin der the names they had given in the police stations.

The police, Mathot said, even now are looking for the secretary of a branch of the Young Men's Christian association who was arrested In the monkey house and forfeited his Intii The deputy refused to divulge the name of the man. but said that in nil probability it would come out If he was caught. Mathot's statements were confirmed by several policemen in Cen tral park, who said that not only had they arrested many prominent men, but that at the present time they arc watching one of the most prominent bankers in this city who has leen constant offender In ami about the monkey house, but whom they have never been able to get "right." Will Send Others to Ja "Caruso was convicted and lined, but If we get any more of these fellows I'm going to try to have prison sen fences Inflicted," said Mr. Mathot. "1 have received many letters from prom lent persons commending me for the position I have taken In the Caruso case.

I also have received many letters, but I have not taken any notice of these." One of the threatening letters sent to Mathot was of the typical Black Hand kind. It waa written on tissue paper and decorated with skulls, bones and daggers. The letter rend: "Commissioner Mathot: Produce Mrs. Graham or you will be among the missing." 1 Former Justice Dlttonhoefer. at torney for Cnruso, apHared lieforo Judge O'Sulllvnn and asked for an or der enabling him to appeal from the derision of Magistrate Baker.

He said that the magistrate committed an error when he visited the monkey house, for that virtually made him a witness In the case. The lawyer also maintained that the magistrate made other er rors In the admission and rejection of testimony, and an affidavit from Cam so, In which he said that be was Innocent of the crime for which he was convicted, was presenliKl to the court. Judge O'Sulllvnn granted the application for permission to apeal. Tenor's Voice In Good Shape. In the Metropolitan Opera House It was said that the tenor's voice was Improving steadily and that In all probability he would be able to sing in "La Boheine" tomorrow Much anxiety, however, is still being felt by the singer and his friends In regard to the reception that he will receive.

While Caruso's friends believe that he will receive, the greatest welcome of his life when he steps on the stage, they express fear that he may Im hiss ed. Such a demonstration will arouse his friends in the audience to resentment Every effort, however, will lie made to avoid trouble In the otera house. Raise For Central's Engineer. New York. Nov.

By turning State's evidence against Frank C. Marrln, or "Judge stone," the man who he says, ensnared him In th Provident Investment Bureau swindle, William H. Lattlmer, known as "Handsome formerly tt wit. kesbarre and Berwick, has gained im munity ror his own part in the gigantic conspiracy to wring of dollars from the people of this coun try and Europe. He his wife and child are now speeding toward Calgary.

Canada, where, he declares, he will begin life anew, holding himself In readiness at any time to return to this city to aid the government In righting the wrong done to the thousands of oustomers of tho Provident Investment Bureau and Storev Cotton Co. These dupes may be found from coast to coast. Lattlmer testified for three hours against the men who Induced him to enter Into the get rlch qulck schemes. He testified positively that not only Stanley Francis, but Frank Marrln, alias "Judge Franklin Stone." were his partners in the Provident Investment Bureau. As a result of his statements $100,000 worth of property In tho name of Marrln will be sold by order of the United States district court for the benefit of the dupes of the concern.

Lattlmer also turned over all the property he received from the Provident swindle to the. receiver. This amounts In all to nearly $40,000. Marrln had not the faintest suspicion that Lattlmer would turn State's evidence and during the whole hearing sat with murder on his face. At times he had to be restrained by force from jumping up and throttling his old employe.

This was particularly so when Lattlmer was describing how the dupes of the Provident Bureau were paid dividends out of the very money they had sent for Investment. Made Happy for Life. Great happiness came Into the home of S. C. Blair, school superin tendent, at St.
