Hurling paving stone through the plate glass

valued at about 81 200. Two men, one of whom
arrested. charged by the police with being i'm
plicated in the theft. The police also believe
third man, TO whom, they say, the others passed
the jewelry when they were trying to get away, is
implicated The prisoner gave his name as Frank
Raymond, of No. 262 William street, and he was
locked up in the Elizabeth street station on the
charge Of grand larceny.
As h. Frank, the owner of the store and his wife
removing the jewelry from the store window
there was loud crash and the heavy plate glass
window fell in pieces about him. A man stuck his
hand into the window. grabbed several pairs of ear
rings and started north the Bowery.
AS Frank with his wife sprang toward the door
they found Il man holding it from the outside. The
man stood there for several minutes and then
dashed south in the Bowery.
Lieutenant John J. Fogarty, of the Detective
Bureau. who at Hester street. started in pur-
suit OF the man who had taken the jewelry. AS
Fogarty was about 10 grab him another man who
standing the curb, and supposedly an ac-
complice, stepped out and the pursued man and he

quickly got up and Fogarty arrested the fellow
who Frank said had taken the jewelry. The man
who had been run into disappeared in the crowd
No one in the meantime had followed the man who
had held the door. The police say that the pris-
oner undoubtedly slipped the stolen stuff to the
man who was knocked down.

DIR. GREEN ON COWS MILK.
Director of StrauS Laboratories Re
turns 7cith Message.

DR.. Arthur Randolph Green, director OF the
Nathan Straus laboratories for the pasteuriZaton
of milk returned yesterday from Europe. Mr..
Strauss chief concern now" said DR. Green, is to
have every mother know the scientific men OF the
world practically agree that raw milk is not safe
food for babies, and to have every mother know
further that she can readily save her children from
contracting consumption other diseases :. from
milk by pasteurzing the milk that she gives them
that she can do this herself. in her own kitchen,
with very little trouble and at practically no
pense."
DR. Green cited the warning issued by the inter-
national milk congress at Brussels against the use
of raw cows milk for infants. DR.. Green added:
In Germany the professors and the medical
men with great unanimity teach the peril of raw
milk transmitting the germs of consumption. Con-
ditions in Germany about the same as in this
country with respect to the extent of tuberculosis
in the dairy herds The official figures, given to
that 253 per of the mich kline tuberculous.
and ii is admitted that it will require years of
careful and thorough work to stamp out the dis
ease in the herds.
Meanwhile, in Germany in England and in
this country the safety of the babies lies in the
pasteurizaton of the milk given TO them, and the
only way TO to the helpless infants pas
te1rized milk is to the mothers to pasteurize
ii at home
THE campaign for the pasteurizaton of milk IS
not a work for the poor, but for the people. The
poor as a matter of fact, are pretty we'll cared
for through the rapid multiplication of infant milk
stations in nearly all the great cities, but the chill
dren of the rich and of the great middle classes
suffer to an untold and inconceivable extent from
being fed on raw, infected milk"

CARPENTERS RESENT WAGE CUT.
Proposal of Masters to Drop so Cents Day
Brings L 5ignant Refusal.

The New York District Council of the Brother
hood Of Carpenters. it stated yesterday. has
decided to reject the proposition Of the Master
Carpenters Association when the present agree
ment as to wages expires to reduce the present
wages from s. TO 81 50 day. Delegate George
Gaillard said:
The question of the number of idle carpenters
would have no bearing the question of a.
proposed cut in wages. To reduce wages would
not increase the volume of work. and will stand
by the present wages Of s. day and refuse to
sign any agreement for less. There may be a
great many idle carpenters at the present time.
but predict what the building season
of 1908 will be like. 1t will be up to the employers
TO what will happen if they drive to the
point of refusing 10 sign agreement"
The outcome OF the proposition OF the master
carpenters 10 reduce wages is being followed by
the other unions, which say they VIII not stand
for any reduction either

ALDERMAN DAVIES GIVES HIS SIDE.
Presents Reasons for Not Doing Away with
City Fathers.

Alderman John r. Davies. chairman of the
Finance Committee of the Board OF Aldermen. has
issued the following statement regarding the tax
payers hearing on budget increases 10 be held this
afternoon in the aIdermanic chamber:
The Board of Aldermen has received numerous
communications from citizens and civic organ1Za-
protesting against certain increases proposed
by the Board of Estimate While Il is true that
the Board of Aldermen has power to increase
Fl has power to cut down any increases that ii may
consider excessive. Even IL II Mayor Vetoes the
amendments passed by the aldermen. can
least lodge squaTely his shoulders responsibility
for unjustifia bic increases. For example: We
not vote additional funds for nurses and food for
hospitals managed by the city but
increases Of 100000 for private charitable
tions against which protests have been received
especially from the State Charities Aid Association
II find, has been alleged, that institG-
tion that does not exist has been promised several
thousand dollars, may cut this allowance OF
the budget.
Those people who anxious to have the
Board of Aldermen abolished VIII find ample rea-
in the budget sent over to us this year by the
Board of Estimate for some second delberatlve
body TO serve check upon the extraVa gances
OF officials interested in voting themselves large
sums OF public aunds.
