BLEW OPEN The SAFE.
Burglars Rob Pelham Manor Post
Office Of $3.50 in Stamps
The Safe Was In the Depot and Was
Totally Wrecked.
Robbers Believed to Have Escaped
to New York by Train.

NEW ROCHELLE. N. Y. Sept 25.-
Burglars visited Pelham Manor early
this morning and robbed the Post Office
which was situated In the depot Pel-
ham Manor is three miles west OF this
place. and Is situated on the Harlem
River branch Of the New York. New
Haven and Hartford Railroad.
1t was about 2 o'clock when the resi-
dents were awakened by n terrific explo-
sion. which shook the whole neighbor
hood. The two watchmen Of the place
were about half a mile away In opposite
directions from the scene OF the explo-
sion. one of them was patrolling his
beat and was in front OF the residence of
Rev. A. F. Penny. and the other was
near the home OF Albert c. Roosevelt.
The Waterman near the home OF Rev.
Mr. Penny ran to the home OF Baggage
master Skinner. and the two went to
the residence OF Postmaster English
They went to the depot, and when
they reached there they found the Post
Office a complete wreck.
The heavy iron safe. in which $3.50
worth of stamps had been. was a com
plete wreck, and the stamps were miss
ing. The door to the ticket office OF
the railroad was torn from its hinges
by the force of the explosion. Every
thing in the room was thrown around.
The walls were shattered and the heavy
iron door of the safe was blown to
pieces.
From appearances. II looked as II the
combination OF the safe had been hit
with hammer and then a fuse had
been put in the combination.
Besides carrying away the stamps.
the burglars took some legal documents
which belonged TO Postmaster English
and which were in the safe. The depot
Is frame structure, and 1t Is "A wonder
that the building was not wrecked by
the force of the explosion.
The depot was occupied by Postmaster
Engllsns coal and wood office, NJ. ].
Donlon's real estate office, the ticket
office Of the railroad and the Post-Omce
So far as known neither the coal Office
OF Mr.. English, the ticket office nor Mr.
Donlon's office was touched.
This is the seventh time the Post
Office has been robbed. Each time pre-
viously, however the safe has not been
touched. 1t was the Post Office through
which the mail was delivered for the
New York Athletic Club at Travers
Island. and this Is the reason why so
many stamps were kept there
The thieves are believed to have es-
capped to New York on n freight train.

Their Demand for Higher Wages
Not Satisfactorily Met.

About sixty women employed in Max
l.. Rau & Sons umbrella and parasol
manufaclcry, at II Leonard street,
started a strike in the factory yester-
day morning. The women claim that
during the duh times Mr.. Rau had cut
them down one cent on each umbrella

should receive the old price when times
grew better. They claim that this
agreement has not been adhered to by
their employers
Last Thursday morning they appointed
committee to call on Mr.. Rau. Mr..
Rau said he agreed to advance the price
one-h1lf cent on each umbrella. Some
of the girls seemed satisfied. but the
majority were displeased. The commit

VICTORY FOR THE STRIKERS.
They Cannot he Punished for Walk
ing on Fifth Avenue.

The majority Of the boss taiiors in
Fifth avenue have. by combination, en-
deavored to break up the tailors' union,
and have reduced the wages of the
workmer. The members OF the tailors'
union, believing that the wages offered
them were not sufficient to compensate
them for their services. months ago left
their various places of employment and
have been on strike ever since.
The union members have endeavored
to persuade these non-union workmen
to become members of the union in
order that they may receive proper rate
OF wages. The bosses secured an in
junction from Judge Beach preventing
teen hundred men, from patrolling In
front of their various stores on Fifth
avenue.
The union men were served with this
injunction, and lately a great many OF
the members have had occasion to pass
by the various stores on Fifth avenue,
In search of employment at different
places, and the bosses have kept the
Supreme Court busy with applications
they were guilty OF contempt OF court
in violating the injunction.
EN-Judge Alfred Steckler in each case
defended the workmen, and contended
that they had right to walk on Fifth
avenue as long as they were orderly
and peaCeable, and that no court could
prevent them from walking upon the
streets of this city.
Judge Lawrence to-day decided every
case In favor of the strikers. refusing
to punish any of them for contempt OF
court.
