Joseph Mauge, a SpaniRrd from Trini-
dad employed as a porter by E. B.. Negro
witz. an optician at l25 West Forty-second
street, closed up the store last night and
started home. In F~orty-siIth street near
Broadway he vas met by two men, Bernardo
Pra and Luis Lands, aso from Trinidad,
who asked Mauge I accompany them TO
their rooms at 81 West Fftieth street.
Having known them for six months he
consented and went home with them.
Late last night Miss Elizabeth Schultz,
who lives in the basement Of the house, was
disturbed by sounds as Of some one pounding
on the floor above her. She went upstairs
and traced the sound TO the Spaniards'
room. where she found Mauge bound 10 a
chair by bed sheets. A handkerchief had
been used as a Gag and he was bleeding
from a dangerous wound in the back Of
the neck,
Miss Schultz aroused the neighbors and
an ambulance was sent for. DR.. Darby of
the Roosevelt Hospital released Mauge
and found that the wound had been made
by a sharp knife and had penetrated The
base Of the skull.
Mauge later told the doctor that on en-
tering the room Pra and lands had imme-
diately started in on a discussion Of mail
=, order business and asked him to enter such
a business with them. Msuge refused,
saying that he had not the necessary capt.
tai. They then asked, he said. for the
keys to his employers office. He refused
TO give the keys to them, saying that they
had no right to them.
Mauge says that they Immediately set
upon him, bound and gagged him, and
that one Of them-which one he does not
~know-stabbed him in the neck and took
the keys. They then left the room and
, closed the door behind them. II was found
later that they had not taken his salary OF
4l2, which was in the same pocket.
Policemen Butler and Kennedy, from
the West Forty-seventh street station.
searched the room and found a long. sharp
pointed knife. Detectives we're put on the
track Of the men. The police were unable
TO learn that the men had entered Negro
Wits store.
