Fifty Men Threatened Him-Piace on
Ground Floor Wrecked and Bricks
Thrown NJ windows Police Too Late.
Frank Fultz, a negro porter employed
by a Maiden Lane firm, moved yesterday
into a fiat on the first floor Of the
house at 42i West Fifty-sixth street, FultS
was accepted as a tenant by a Ninth avenue
real estate man, he says.
When the occupants OF that house and
others in the neighborhood saw him o
ing in yesterday morning with a stack OF
household goods of good quality there was
some angry muttering around the hall
ways and the street. Fultz didn't pay any
attention to it, but with the assistance OF
his wife and his sister he got things settled
yesterday afternoon.
While Fultz was taking things easy last
night a brick came crashing through his
front window. A few more bricks and
other missiles followed, until there wasn't
a whole window left in the front. Fultz
said he looked out through the front door
and saw that the bombardment was COM
ing from about fifty men from the ~Stryker's
lane section.
One Of the raiders saw him looking out
of the window, and cried: IF you don't
want to get strung up to the nearest lamp
post you'd better get out Of that fiat as quick
as o can"
That worried Fultz, and sending his
women folks into the bedrooms, he fed 20
the kitchen for safety. A rear attack be-
gan just then, which didn't stop until nearly
all Fultz's mirrors, glassware and other
breakables were a total wreck.
The negro, thoroughly alarmed, was
looking for some way to get out and sum-
mon the police. A.. He heard a woman's
voice calling from the hall. He opened
the door and the woman. the janitress,
advised him TO get out Of the tenement
house through the cellar and hustle for the
West Forty-seventh street station house
through Fifty-seventhI street.
Fultz wal 30 weak from fright when he
ran into the station house that he a n to
the floor. When ne regained his strength,
he told Sergt. Faulkner: There's a big
mob smashing up my fiat. and I'm afraid
they're going to kill my wife and sister"
Sergt. Faulkner sent two policemen
around with Fultz, but the crowd had been
warned by the janit .ess that the negro
had gone for the police. There were no
persons around. IFultz paid a months
rent in advance Tor the place, but he says
he will move out to-day.

FENCES TO CUT OFF VIEW.
One Man Doesn't Like Tenants in Rival
Fat-Business Invasion Resisted.

Two house owners with grievances against
their next door neighbors applied to Build
ing Superintendent Murphy yesterday for
penn b to build two fences Of their prop
erty. One of the disgruntled citizens is
Harry Goodstein, who owns the five story
apartment house at Mar haitian avenue and
18th street and who proposes to build on the
rear Of his lot a corrugated iron fence 90 feet
high and 1917 feet Wild to shut of the view
Of the tenants in the adjoining fiat house on
lIsth street, TO whom he objects. The fence
will cost $500.
George G. Dewitt, whose residence is
at 80 West Fifty-1rst street, is to erect a
fen &c 221. feet high and 8 feet wide alongside
his high stoop to cut on the view from the
two story extension which the owner Of the
house next door at 81 built IN the front Of his
lot when he remodelled the building for use
as stores.
This was formerly a strictly residential
block and the introduction of the stores
fingered the other realty owners. The
fence is to cost 500. Both the fences are to
comply with the requirements of the build
ing law in the matter of safety bracing.
II il the first time in the department
history that t such applications have been
made on the same day."

HUNTING FOR THE GRAIN Trust
Interstate Commission Gets Evidence OF
Railway Elevator Combine.

OMAHA. Oct. 24.-The Interstate Com
MERGE Commission, represented by Com
missioners Lane and Clarke, began a two
days session here to-day to inquire into
grain rates and the grain business generally
IN this territory.
While Mr.. Marble, attorney for the COM
mission, failed TO show an agreement among
the Nebraska dealers TO regulate prices, il was
brought out from the testimony OF several
Iowa dealers that prices all over western
Iowa are based on a postal card bid sent
out from Des Moines by a Mr.. Case"
None OF the witnesses had ever seen mir
Case" and none knew positively that there
was such a man, but each paid his pro-
portion Of the expenses OF MIR. Case" in
sending out these bids.
Commissioner Clarke animated, by cues
tionings, that perhaps Case" might be
some central head Of a grain trust in Des
Moines.
General Freight Agent Philippi of the
Missouri Pacific said it was the policy OF
his road to discourage the building Of ele-
vators in towns that, in their judgment.
had enough elevators.
The position of the Missouri Pacific was
brought out when witnesses told Of farmers
elevators situated ut Marley and Strauss
vile, Neb. The Missouri Pacific refused
permission 10 have the elevators erected
on its right of way. and when the elevators

ding far above. the market in order to pre-
vent them doing business: that big elevator
owners had notified smaller men that they
must lower their prices, and forced buyers
TO boycott the small men when they re-
fused: that all the railroads in his terri
tory discriminate against the Omaha grain
market in order hat they might get a longer
haul. and that railroads absorbed
switching charges for certain elevators.
The payment Of rebates under the name
of elevator charges" was shown to be
general and amounted to one and a quarter
cents a hundred pounds, when the actual
cost il less than three-quarters of a cent.
