So far the applications for space had

BURGLAR FOUGHT LIKE Il FIEND.
He and Hts Captor Rolled Down Two Flights
or Stairs Fighting.

Thomas D. Hurst, a book publisher. OF 1875
Grand street, has for six weeks past been the
victim Of a burglar who preyed almost nightly
upon his postage stamps and books. He set
many traps for the thief, but was never able to
catch him. When he had lost 1900 worth Of
stamps and $500 worth of books he reported tho
matter to the Mulberry street police station, and
Detective Summers hid himself in the building
after midnight yesterday morning and waited for
the thief. Shortly after 4 O'Clock the door was
unlocked and the burglar entered and took some
stamps from the desk. He placed them in his
hat and started to leave, when Summers e rap
pied with him. The thief made a desperate
resistance.
You'll never take me alivc!' said he, saw.
agely. This will kill my folks. It's YOU or mo
now, and you'd better shoot, because III do you
II can"
Summers finally overpowered him after twenty
minutes of struggling and put handouts on him.
AS he started to lead him down stairs the
burglar, by q superhuman effort, managed to
break the chain OF the handouts. and with hts
arms free he again broke away from summers
and vaulted over the banister. summers fol-
lowed him, and in the struggle that ensued the
two men rolled down the two remaining fiight0
of stairs and out into the street. Summers was
fast becoming exhausted. but Detective Lynch
arrived OPPORTUNITY, and the prisoner was quick
~ overpowered.
At the station he said he was Nicholas Rath-
mann, 1S years old. OF $50 Hart street, Brook.
Ign. He was employed in the building as an ele-
vator boy. He admitted his guilt. and was
taken TO Centre Street Court, where Magistrate
Meade held him in 81 900 bail for trial.
