Likely Amateur sIeuth.

metto street, Williamsburg. was held up
last night by gang OF toughs at Albany

hid in doorway. Pretty soon the gang
came out OF the carpenter shop. He trailed
along behind them to Myrtle avenue. He
kept after them 10 Adams street. At that
point he had tho pleasure OF seeing negro
pay 81 for his new SIS overcoat.
Still playing the part OF a sleuth Drieher
kept trailing the gang until he saw them
enter the tenement at ioi Washington street.
He stood across the way until he saw light
on the second floor, and then he ran TO the
Fulton street station. Almost breathless,
he told the police his tale. They were IN
olined 10 think he was crazy when they
figured out that he had chased the gang
nearly six miles, but Roundsman Loeffler
and the reserves were placed at his disposal.
He led them to the Washington street
house and to the second floor. There the
police found eight men. Drieher said
they were the ones who held him up and
robbed him. The man who paid the rent
OF the floor said he was John Bondon.

vice, tells the details OF the recent poisoning
Of the wealthy woman who was not sup
posed TO have such enemies. Miss Rich

panied Mrs. Stanford on her tour around
the world. She said that on Jan. IA ut 0

room. There Mrs. Stanford said;
Richmond there seems TO be something
wrong with this water. VIII you taste
in"
The water had been drawn from bottle
from we'll known springs. The maid
tasted the water and found it very bitter.
Mrs. Stanford's stomach had already re-
jected what she had drunk. She seemed
greatly agitated and the maid suggested
that she drink come warm salt water and
thus clear her stomach, which she did.
Then the maid took the remainder Of the
bottle OF water to a druggist and left it to
be analysed. A week later n report was
received from the chemist who said the
water was heavily charged with strychnine.
When this report was read to Mrs, STAN
ford she threw up her hands and said
sOh God. did not think any one wished
to hurt me. What would IL benefit any
one?"
Mrs Stanford was greatly troubled and
declared that she would put the whole mat
ter In the hands OF detectives. The maid
and others were interviewed but no arrests
were made.
Mrs Stanford was so shaken over her dis
covery OF the attempt TO kill her that she
refused to stay in her fine houss and few

SENATOR CLARK cor HIS Gun.
Thought the subway Had Done Hin In
Transaction in Copper.

Senator william A. Clark of Montana,
the copper mine owner, lost several trains
and came near losing his temper yesterday
afternoon at the Fourteenth street subway
station in an endeavor to get square with
a subway slot machine. Senator Clark
had come uptown on an express, and just
as a local came along decided that he wanted
piece Of chewing gum He felt IN his
pocket and found all that he had was
nickel.
He tried the nickel; it wouldn't At; he
went TO the ticket window and got five
cents from Mr. Belmont's agent. BY this
time the first train had gone. The Senator
went up to the slot machine, put cent in
and pushed the plunger. No gum. He
pushed the plum ger in again. Same result
Look here what sort Of business is this3'
the Senator was overheard to say to the
platform man. Il put cent in there and
can't get anything out.
The platform man said he had nothing
to do, in his official capacity, with the slot
machine. Then the Senator went back
to where he had got his five cents and de-
manded back the cent OF which the slot
machine had beguiled him. The ticket
man said he wasn't responsible for what
Senator Clark had done with his copper.
Another employee came along and vol
unteered to help. He went back to the
slot machine, followed by the Senator
The employee felt around with his hand n
moment and ;hen drew out piece OF chew
ing gum.
sThank you said the Senator. Then
he made rush for another train which
had come along and reached it just after
tho gunrd had shut the gate.

He poured kerosene oil over me and then

LOWEST TIDE FOR 80 YEARS.
Boats on the Mud In Their Docks-One
Ferry Put Out OF business.

All the wooden piers Of the town at dead
low tide yesterday afternoon looked as
II they were built on stilts like the homes
OF the ancient lake jewellers. Shellbsoks
OF the harbor declared that there had not
been so low tide within fifty years or
more. The westerly wind was at work
through the night and morning, as 1t las
been for the last ten or twelve days, and
that caused the phenomenal outrush OF
water, A rumor that the tunnel under the
East River had sprung aleak was denied.
Ca1t. John Bradley Of the revenue cut
ter Calumet, which. with her sister ship,
the Hudson. and the anchorage cutter Man
hattar, was moro than an hour resting on
the muddy bottom OF the Barge Office
alp, sLd that he could not recall time
when he tide had been lower. Ladders
were uted by tugboatmen who came ashore
at pier,' downtown. In some instances
the decks Of the tugs were ten feet from
tho tops of piers. All sailing craft moored
in the East River were Graded in mud at
the bottom of their docks, and vehicles
coming on the ferries had hard time
getting up the steep inolines Of bridges.
The Royal Blue line ferry at the foot OF
Whitehall street. whose boats are OF deep
draught, gave up business in the after
noon from to O'Clock. Passengers who
wanted to get trains at Communipaw by
way Of this ferry were sent to Liberty
street and trains were held for them at
Communipaw twenty minutes beyond
schedule.
The swiftly receding tide left great ice
foes stranded on the beach on the Battery
seawall The beach rocks were hidden
under masses OF crushed ice and snow, on
which man might walk out seventy-fve
feet before reaching the water.

NJDsHIPMAN DROPS DEAD.
8. W. battle. Jr., OF North Carolina Dies
I'm the Ranks at Annapolis.


ANNAPoL1s. Md, Feb. 19.-Midshiprnan
Samuel westray Battle, Jr., second class,
son OF Surgeon Samuel W Battle OF
Asheyille, n. c., retired naval officer,
dropped dead, at the academy to-day.
Death was due to heart failure and came
lust as the brigade of midshipmen we're
assembling for the regular dinner forma-
ton and when the grounds were filled with
the usual Naval Academy visitors, among
whom were many young girls from other
cities who had attended the hop last night.
Young Battle had just taken his APP
nointed place as third petty officer OF the
Ninth Company, Second Battalion, when
he was seen to stagger and fall before any
one could reach him. He was taken at
once to the academy hospital, where a
hasty examination showed that he was
dead when picked up.
Mdshipman Battle entered the Naval
Academy from Asheville, y, c., on Aug. 20,
1902. and since that time had taken promi-
nent place among his classmates He
was a member OF the hop committee both
last year and this year, and last year pulled
stroke oar on the varsity eight The
trouble with his heart developed during the
past summer and for this reason he did
not come out for the crew again this year.
