NEW YORK, Jan. 7. New York
has thrown awny its nickel novel of
1&20. to begin reading the 1921
thiijler of Dead Man's Gulch moved
into Broadway and the Black HUH
set down on Fifth avenue, somewhere
between tho Valdorf-Astoria and 42d
street. ...
With-something like. 400 robberies
and "stickups" on the newspaper lists
of crimes for the past year, and mure
than, 100 murders and killings set
down by news offices as "unsolved, "
tho nqw year hrs hud set for if a,
penny-dreadful "record -it will take
two Run men from Coyote Canyon a
lifetime's endeavor to beat. .
A ride from the Grand Central in
a taxicab now is conceded by leading
newspapers of the clly to have noth
ing on a trip in the Deadwood stage
coach mid the big hotels and restau
rants loom up ns cheery as the Santa
Fe saloon in the wild west days of the
six-gun toter fnd the Bad.JBoy Ban
dits, of Blpody Hollow. ..Twenty pot
lice riflemen patrol the streets at
night in automobiles. The curfew
rings at midnight when Central pnrk
Is closed to vehicular - and. pedes-"
trfan traffic, and all persons .abroad
must give an'.account of themselves
when asked.
In the, past month judges 'on the
criminal courts bench have urged for-,
imttion of citizens' -committees on a
par with the vigilantes of the, fron
tier before ' was accused of pidvlug
back east to metropolitan centers.
The mayor has warned all persons
carrying or possessing valuables to
procure permits to arm themselves
against highwaymen and the police
have tried to get back to something
like first principles in life and prop
erty protection. ' ;, ' ;
Crimes have been chronicled as
though they were robbery and mur-.
der cyclones, nnd the-subway news-;
paper reader has felt all the thrill of
riding the Overland' Umited in the
days when Jesse James and his gang
held no prairie railroad immune from
their ravages.
Estimates have placed about $4,
000,000 as the total value of loot ob
tained by burglars, thieves and yegg
men in New York during 1920. Day
light holdups, attacks in leading Great
White Way hotels nnd automobile
banditry have yielded much of the
valuables stolen. As many us 40 rob
beries and thefts have been featured
fur a month's acts of violence of note,;
and six such attempts In n day have
been recorded.
Of the more than 100 "unsolved
murders listed by, some papers, a '
number now are naUcually. If not In
ternationally, known, beginning with
a killing last .New Year's Duy, 1920's
record started strong. Conspicuous
in the 12 months' list were the mur
ders of Joseph B. Elwell, Miss Benie
Constance Hoxie, and Frederick C.
Ecker. Elwell, known from coast to
coast as a whist expert and horseman,
was shot to death in his handsomely
furnished AVest 70th street home;
Miss Hoxie,' a 17-year old girl, was
found .mutilated in her father's house;
Eckert, a - former .government agent
and. alleged whiskey runner. was
found shot dead in an automobile in
Staten 'Island
In -the robberies, organized bands
of gunmen have seemed to predomi
nate. Thefts of valuable goods from
railroad freight cars, hulking big in
packing cases,, have been . consider
able. Stolen automobiles' have been
reported constantly. Hut holdups of
the old time type, by day as well ns
night,, on the street, in the home, in
hotels, where masked and unmasked
men have taken what theywanted at
tho point of pistols, have called forth
the hue nnd cry against alleged "in
adequate police protection."
Automobile -bandits hayjB made off
with a number of factory payrolls and
banks have seen gunmen walk in and
denirfnd money from the safe under
penalty of instant death.
All this time, the Police Depart
ment has been- under fire, - Polica
Commissioner Enright, right bower
of; the city administration, has been
attacked continually in the news-,
papers because of tho prevalence of
the gunmen.
'The commissioner has retorted by
asserting that this condition exists
elsewhere. To combat it ho has
lengthened tho hours of police duty
cnlied for 500 additional policemen
and sent out automobile squads armed
with rifles to patrol the shopping and
lousiness districts.

NEW YORK. Jan. S. Legislators In
this state served notice during New
York's crime wave that at the next ses
sion they intend introducing measures
to provide greater punishment for
highwaymen and burglars.
With daring robberies becoming
every day occurrences, the courts hero
quickly decided to mete out maximum
punishment wherever possible and
laised bail to Insure keeping criminals
behind bars. '
A study of existing laws in various
stales shows that in three, burglary is
punishable by death and in four, rob
bery-'-shoiild the maximum punish
ment be applied.
First degree burglary may he pun
ished by death in North Carolina and
Virginia by means of electricity and in
Delaware by hanging. Alabama and
Virginia's laws provide the maximum
of death in robbery cases, while Ne
vada specifics death for train robbers
and lexns for robbery accomplished
by means of deadly weapons.
Several states provide for llfo Im
prisonment or for "any term up to
life" In burglary cases. The life -penalty
thus Is possible In Massachusetts,
Florida, Iowa, Ohio, Rhode Island and
South Carolina, while In Maine the
law merely provldos "any term of
years" making it possible to Impose
sentence which virtually menus life.
New York, Minnesota,. North Dakota
and South Dakota accomplish tho same
end by stipulating that burglary-shall1
be punished by "not Iobs thaif 10
years."
Other states vary. from maximum
punishments of 40 years in Utah and
30 years in New Hampshire to only
seven years in Arkansas. The heaviest
' fine possible for the offense Is In
Pennsylvania, which provides "pot
over 10 years and $10,000."
Robbery may be punished by life
imprisonment In Idaho, Rhode Island,
Texas, Oregon, Utah, Illinois, Massa
chusetts, Michigan, and Hawaii. Call
fornia provides for "not less than ouo
year." The least severe penalty is
that of Connecticut which stipulates
"not more than seven years." In most
states the maximum varies from 16 toi
20 years. ...
In view of present conditions, how
ever, bills are being prepared for in
troduction in several states to Increase
the maximum penalty to death or life
imprisonment. .

The Woman Game
The theme of Elaine Hammerstein's
production "The Woman Gamo" might
be summed up by tho use of the famil
iar adage "All's fair In love and war."
Although there is no trace of martial
conflict in this beautifully staged
screflta play which opened at tho Ja'ge
theatre yesterday, there is a strong
love theme and file war element is rep
resented in the ago-old battle of the
sexes. In this story 'by Leighton Os
mun apd Frank DazeyMlns Hanimor
steln is given greater opportunities for
characterization than she has hereto
fore had in any of hor other pictures.
