MEN
QUIT WALDORF
Detectives Seeking Gang That
Successfully Operated in the
Fashionable Hotel and Sent
Out Tons of Literature.

Constant complaints to the police OF
this city from the dupss OF green-soods
men have led to an investigation OF a
gang OF heightened sawdust operators
who have had the cool nerve TO make
the waldorf-Astorla h scene of their
tran sactions. From this fashionable
hosiery, It has been learned, o OF
green-goods literature has been turned
lc ose In the west, with the usual result
Of catching an extraordinary percent
age of victims.
The Detective Bureau Is now trying
to run down h gang which has made
the waldorf-Astcria a turning Joint
but the green-goods mon, having reaped
a goodly harvest. have taken wing and
the management of the hotel Is now
exerting itself nightly to keep secret
the purpose for which their establish
ment has been used.
The tale OF Stanley Urbanski,. a
wealthy South Chicago baker, is an ex-
cellent sample OF the stories which have
come to the police. Crbanski got the
usual supply Of gilt-edged literature
and bit at once, especially at a propo-
s!tlon that he could have 5000 of coun-
terfeit non which could not be told
from the real for the trihing sum of
$500 in good money.
Urbanski could hardly restrain his
impotence when this proposition was
submitted to him, and he left his
bakery at No. sss3 Colfax street in
charge OF a friend and. in accordance
with his instructions, came here and
went to the waldorf-Astoris, where he
met three men.
They were verJ- nice. Eentlemanly
fellows" said Urbar ski in telling the
story TO the police. and after We had
had a little chat they suggested that

GUS Visits, but Secure Very

Victim - Residents Getting
Used to Burglars.

In their second monthly raid on the
Homewood section OF Brooklyn last
hight burglars entered eight houses,
but they must have gained a pretty
Door idea OF Homcwood because they
got less than $50 out OF all thai work.
Incidentally, they put a policeman out
of commission by stealing his uniform,
and another victim whose clothes were
Ttolen while he slept had to borrow a
palr Of trousers In order to get to work.
The burglars raided the same block,
Bixty-eighth street. between Sixteenth
Ind Seventeenth avenues, a month ago,
and after getting into half a dozen
houses. were driven away with an al
most valueless booty. They evidently
came back last night for what they
overlooked the last time. but besides the
clothing, the best they could do was to
raid a number of children's savings
banks.
Got Out His Shotgun.
James Kavanaugh, Of No. 1864 Sixty
eighth street, heard a noise in the din
ing-room at midnight and went down
stairs with a shotgun. Near the bottom
of The stairs he stumbled and fell, and
the noise drove the burglars away.
When Stephen ]. Nash awoke in his
home. at No. 1866 Sixty-eighth street,
he found the house Uttered with burned
matches. The burglars. who had en-
tered a dining-room window, had taken
AIRS. Nash's purse, containing 50, and
two of the children's penny banks.

soundly in his home. at No. 1915 Sixty
eighth street. when the burglars broke
in and stole his uniform and raided the
pantry. They took the edibles to the
lawn in front OF the house where they
enjoyed a moonlight luncheon during a
recess In their work.
When Mrs. Samuel Tantaine. OF No.
1859. got UP to-day she found that the
burglars had been in her place buthad
secured only her purse, which contained
two or three dollars.
Frederick .Heggie heard the noise OF
the burglars in his home at No. 1864.
and without leaving his bed ne called
downstairs to them to be more quiet,
that the baby was restless and they
might disturb her. The burglars evi.
oently thought lieSgle was angry anu
they left the house.

The burglars were getting into harles

up for the disparity in numbers.
Upon one point there is abso-
lutte unanimtiy here, namely, that
if the fortress falls, the fleet will
not fall into the hands Of the Jap
anese. On this point the admir-
alty's instructions are of the most
imperative character. Vice Ad-
miral Prince Ouktomsky has been
ordered. should the worst come,
to sally forth for a death strug-
gle and there is no question here
that these instructions will be car
ried out both in letter and spirit,
but if for any reason final sortle
proves to be impossible the ad-
miral is to destroy his ships and
to make certain the wreckage is
absolutely irreparable.

anxiety, prevails regarding the
situation at Port Arthur on ac-
count of the desperate character
of the fighting reported taking
place, though the war office does
not seem to believe that the dam
ger of the fall of the fortress is
so imminent as is generally as
serted. According to reports re-
ceived by the War office, there is
still an ample supply Of ammuni-

it is recalled that the japanese

FIRE DRILL IN SCHOOL
Cairo Pupils Have Been Carefully
Drilled and There is Little
Danger Of Fire.

Many cities throughout the country
have begun making preparations aud
taking precautions TO prevent a holo-
caust in any of the public schools.
Many OF the school boards have adj
vised the adoption Of a fire drill
among the pupils to be practiced each
week It is thought that in this man
ner the pupils may be so thoroughly
disciplined that in the event of fire
no trouble will be experienced in get
ting them from the buildings in safety
The movement is not new in Cairo
schools, the fire drill having been In
troduced here several years ago and
practiced ever since Sometimes the
practice is not held each week but
the pupils are kept familiar with the
signals
While there is practically no neces.
sity for such precautions in the Cairo
schools nevertheless. it might prove
Of much value some time
The Cairo schools are considered
very safe from fire and the fire drill
trains the pupils to avoid undue haste
on stairways and prevent losing their
balance and falling and allows no
crowding or pushing
In The Cairo High School il requires
but two minutes time to procure wraps
and leave the building and the other
schools work is almost equally as ex-
accomplished Parents
need have no fear of trusting their
children to the watchful care Of Cal
ro's efficient school teachers as every
precaution is exercised for the com.
fort and safety Of the pupils
