NJ EW YORK.-The wild west was
~ once the home of most that was
romantic and daring in crime. To-
day II is superseded by the wild east
by New York city itself. Crimes are
being committed here which for dar-
ing and unwontedness can scarcely
be surpassed even by the most lima;
ginative Of writers of fiction.
A few weeks ago, up the river in
the neighborhood of Hudson, there
was a hold-up such as Deadwood
Gulch or Coyote Canyon never sur
passed. A paymaster and his guard re-
turning from a bank with $4,000 to
pay Off the laborers in a brickyard
were held up and shot to death within
few hundred yards Of their Office,
and to this day not one of the assas-
sins has been captured and not thu
slightest light has been thrown on
the tragedy.
Recently in West Forty-seventh
street there was q duel between two
parties Of men. Each Of them was in
& big touring car and they maneu.
vered up and down the street ex-
changing shots like two battleships in
action. There wds another duel be-
tween two automobile parties on Sew
enty-second street a couple of even.

Broadway was crowded, a gambler

Wild West Outdone in New York City

engaged in pistol duel with another
whom he claimed had wronged him.
The aggressor was the poorer marks
man and was filled with lead. Half
an hour later the sidewalk had been
scrubbed up and was dry and dusty
again, and the surging crowds gave
as little comment to the ARRAY as the
border men used to when man was
killed over a game Of cards in Abilene
or Dodge or any other Of those roar
ing cities of the COW country a quar-
ter Of century ago.
One OF the most daring deeds In the
history of the metropolis was that
performed by Myles Mcdonnell. He
walked into q saloon, where he knew
a lot Of his enemies were waiting to
kill him. The minute he stepped In
side the door three or four Of his foes
opened fire on him. He drew his PTS
toll without batting an eye and an
swered shot for shot. The doctors Of
the Harlem hospital were busy for
several days thereafter attending to
the dead and wounded. Mcdonnell
killed two and seriously injured three
or four others. He himself got of
without a scratch.
New York today has the greatest
clearing house for thieves in the
world. 1t is there that congregate the
transatlantic robbers, men who work
the ocean greyhounds. After each
round trip they meet at this rendez-
vous and divide their spoil. There
also assemble the master thieves, the
big robbers, the clever men who steal
by brains as well as by force. They
are the safe blowers, the crack Sec
ond-story men, the cleverest of forg-
ers who steal with pen and ink. the
kings and princes of the wireless WIRE
tapping and gold brick industry, the
big swindlers in fake mining schemes.
