HARDENED AT TWELVE.
Hoboken Young Chicken Stealer
Sets the World at Defiance.

George S. Wayne, of No. 523 Jefferson
street, HobokeI, was the complainant in
Recorder Stanton's court this morning
against Henry W. Brown, IL years old,
of No. 307 Clinton street, and Albert Ger
ZACH, 10 years old, of Nc. 40 Grand street.
The youths were charged with stealing
chickens. Gerlach cried and said that he
did not steal the chickens. and that he
had never been arrested before. Brown
laughed at his companion, and acted like
a hardened criminal.
IT rave been arrested six times, Judge"
said Brown, in answer to Recorder STAN
toms questions. "Gerlach had one of
the chickens and let him go when he
saw the man after him. I had my chick
en- and held on to it. I knew that the
old guy could not catch me, and I won
have been all right only for the cops"
Recorder Stanton-"Don't you go to
school?'
Brown-s@The teacher put me out for
hitting her in the head with a spit ball."
Recorder Stanton turne way to hide
a smile, and ordered the youths back to
their cells, saying that he would dispose
of them later.
Brown laughed and joked with Detec-
tive Fenton and did not appear to realize
his position. Gerlach cried bitterly. The
police think that Brown induced Gerlach
to steal. Brown will probably be sent to
the Reform School and Gerlach Will be
reprimanded and set free.

HAYDEN ON THE RACK.
Hoboken's Tax Board Wants
to Know About Many
Peculiar Doings.

The Hoboken Board of Tax Commission
ers held an important meeting yesterday
afternoon. Police Commissioner Hayden,
who appeared to explain the amount asked
for the maintenance of the Police Depart
ment, was put ON the rack and spent q
bad quarter of an hour. Tax Commits
sioner Schinzel wanted to know why three
active men had been pensioned. and their
places flled by men who had been prom
ised appointment by Mayor Pagan.
1--WE had q right to retire the men, ;
Hayden answered. They were over sixty
years old. and a seen wenty years Of
service. The law CAV US h power to
retire them"
Eyes, but these men are active, and
pensioning them and filling their places
puts an additional n unnecessary ex-
pense on the taxpayer said Mr.. Schin-
zel. ."Ihe Tax commissioners nave a right
to appropriate $1o,O 900. 900 if they see fit.
The law gives them that power but they
do not attempt to bus it the same as
the Police Commissioner I think the ac-
ton of the Police Commissioners was an
outrage and an imposition on the taxpay-
ers."
Tax Commissioners Mooney and Schin-
eel spoke in the same strain. They inti-
mated that tried and true mem had been
retired in order to make way for Pagan
'heelers."
The question as to whether the police
force is at present legally constituted was
next discussed. Tax Commissioner Vim
cent said that there are at present seventy
one patrolmen, exclusive of superior
officers, il the law only permits of
seventy. Corporation Attorney Mintura,
who was present, was called upon TO de-
fine superior officers. He said that the
Chief, captains, sergeants, roundsmen and
detectives are superior officers. Mr.. Min
turn quoted the law and made the some
what startling announcement that the
law, as 1t stands, while limiting the NUM-
Der of patrolmen to seventy, places no
limit on the number of superior officers.
Mr.. Minturn was next asked II the Coun-
Gil had acted legally in using for other
purposes the sum of 81, 100, which had been
appropriated last year to maintain a new
fire The money had been appro-
prfated in anticipation of a new ompany
to buy hose, pay extra firemen, ETC., and
when the house was not built the Coun-
took the money to pay police sal
aries, the police appropriation having been
overdrawn. This year the Fire Depart
merit asks for a similar appropriation. Mr..
Minturn told the Tax Commissioner that
he believed the Councilmen acted ille-
gally.
Mr.. Minturr was asked If any steps had
been taken ON behal of the city to recover
the $40. e0e agreed to be paid TO the city
by the Rutherford Railroad Company.
Mr.. Minturn replied that the road is IN a.
cure a reduction from the city. He said
that by the terms of the franchise the
road a been promised an outlet 10 the
ferry, and that the city did not give The
company that right, and the road today
is paying the Hobpken Ian and Improve
ment Company $1,000 a year for the use Of
one block near the ferry.

SCREAMED TOO LATE.
Miss Boettcher Let the Second
Story Thief Get Away With
His Plumber

A daring burglary occurred in Lafayette
early this morning. The thief entered the
room in which a young woman was sleep
ing, looted the bureau, took everything of
value in the room and left without being
intercepted. The house entered was that
of Louis Boettcher, No. 1914 Wilton
street. 1t is a two-story and basement
structure, with a French gable roof. There
is a veranda across the front, the roof of
which is on a level with the second-story
windows. The Boettchers keep boarders.
Miss Lillian Boettcher occupies the sec
ond story front room. When she retired
last night she left the window open. She
had considerable money in her room, but
no thought of burglars entered her head.
She was awakened shortly before four
o'clock this morning by a slight noise and
was startled to see by the light which en-
tered from the street a man crouched in
front of the bureau, engaged in rifling the
drawers She was too frightened to
scream, and lay still, fearing to move
hand or foot. The man leisurely searched
the bureau. took all that was of value,
examined the rest of the room and stepped
out of the window and disappeared over
the roof of the veranda. When he was
well out dIbQ "a q Pl<lity "a tiLiC "
reach the street Miss Boettcher screamed
for help and woke the boarders, who
rushed to her room to find out what was
the trouble. She described the man as
best she could and told Of her thrilling
experience. The boarders at once notified
the police.
The burglar had completely disappeared
by the time the boarders learned of the
robbery. Detective Hottie was put on the
case as soon as it came to the knowledge
Of the police. He investigated and found
that it would nave been an easy matter
for a burglar to climb to the roof of the
veranda and enter the room. He is in
clined, to believe that the robbery was
committed by sonsNperson who knew
that Miss Boettcher had a considerable
sum Of money in her room. as the house
is not such as a professional burglar
would choose to rob unless posted. He
has no positive clue to assist him in dis
covering the burglar. The following ar
tfcles were stolen from the room:-Eigh-
ty-five dollars in bills, a double case gold
watch, a silver hunting case watch, a
pocketbook containing forty cents, a
~pocketbook containing some ferry tickets,
a gold watch chain and a silver watch
chain.
