TWo or A GANG CAUGHT
Capt. Cox Says He Will Stop the
the Toughs.

The police of the C-ommunipaw avenue
station made an excellent start toward
breaking up a rang that has infested the
junction for some time. Patrolman Lewis
succeeded on separate occasions in arrest
ing Thomas Walker, sixteen years old,
of No. 466 C~ommunipaw avenue, and
James Thompson, of No. rs Prescott
place. Both of the prisoners are menu
beers Of a tough gang hat has made life
miserable for pedestrians who were unfor-
tunate enough to nave to pass the corners
at Summit avenue and Grand street. The
police have, on several occasions, made
unsuccessful attempts to catch the Of
Tenders. Their failure was due more to
the numerous secret hiding places of the
toughs than the laxity of the officers.
Captain COX said last evening that he
had received complaints from the resi-
dents in that locality and that he would
break up the gang if he had to jail every
one of the members.
'This thing doesn't go in this precinct
said he. pedestrians must be respected.
and these toughs, / nave been told, go
so far as to insult people"
The prisoners are a couple of typical
toughs, with whom the police nave had
trouble more than once.

/ D-WEEK HANDBALL
Small But Good Gard at the Mercer
Street Court,

The patrons of the Mercer street court
yesterday were entertained by the experts
for but four games, but the sport was
hot while it lasted, and the cracks were
warmly applauded for the expert manner
in which they played the game. Mike
Egan was the particularly bright star,
as usual, and showed how excellent is mis-
present condition by defeating single
handed the combined efforts of two very
good players, J. Manning and w. Hus-
bands. 1t was expected that Egan would
get a hard brush in this game, but he
showed up particularly strong in the SER
vice and quick in receiving. The pair
never came nearer than II points to win
ming and this was in the second game
when for a time it looked dark for the
champion. P. Burns and I. Waters played
a fast series of three games which Burns
won by small margins. The scores
