CAPTAIN RYAN ISSUES
SALOON-CLOSING UKASE.

Captain Ryan, Of the First Precinct,
today emphatically declared that all
the hotels and drinking places In his
precinct would have to suspend the
sale Of liquor at midnight on Satur-
days. He declared that too many COM
plants had come to him regarding the
sale of intoxicating beverages after
hours on Saturdays, and he was de-
termined to put a stop to it all. All
patrolmen were instructed to arrest
any persons found in an intoxicated
condition following a Saturday de-
bauch. Captain Ryan's attention was
also directed to the sale of liquors in
back rooms, and as a result he raided
the cafe of Edward Flemming, at
Washington and Bank streets.
Today In the First Precinct Flem-
ming was paroled for his appearance
before the grand Jury In the sum Of
$1,000. The raid was most spectacular
and was witnessed by over 1000 people.
Eight women and nine men were cap
tured. Three of the women were held
in 5000 bail as material witnesses. At
the Flemming resort Luke Feeny. Of
es5 South Twentieth street, alleged he
was relieved of SO. He complained
that John McDonough, of % Alyea
street, put his HAND into his pocket
and took the money. McDonough was
held in $500 bail.

WHERE EVERYONE
CONCERNED is A LOSER.

The records show that Charles
Schehr. of 1868 Boulevard, Jersey City.
wanted some gold teeth and that his
landlord, Samuel Hantzig, had about
$50 in a trunk, so Schehr opened the
trunk, took $40, and, to make sure he
would get the m~uch-desired grinders he
paid $23 of 1t to a dentist in advance.
Schehr was a~rraigned at the Third
Precinct Criminal Court his morning
and was held in $1,000 bail to await the
action of the grand jury. He also
signed a written confession hat he hal
stolen this and other sums from the
trunk at various times.
Since all he had done at the dentists
was TO have two teeth ground In prep
aration for gold crowns, which the po-
lice value at about three dollars, the
dentist will be asked to refund the
money.
Teeth ground for crowns are not
much good unless they have the
crowns they were prepared for. so the
dentist says that unless Schehr is
hailed out quickly and gets those teeth
covered he will probably lose a couple
of teeth. So everybody concerned loses
in this transaction.
Schehr loses the teeth he has nd the
teeth he was going to get. Hantzig
loses three dollars and the dentist loses
a job.

REFUSAL OF PHONE LEASE
TO HERALD CO. A MYSTERY.
N. Y. Telephone Co. Declines to
Explain Its Conduct.

The cause of the refusal of the New
York Telephone Company to lease the
necessary wires to the New Jersey
Telephone Herald Company, at Clinton
and Beaver streets, his city, is still

to discuss 1t.
George H. Bell, secretary of the
New Jersey Telephone Herald Com
pany. when seen today at the head
quarters of the company, also declared
he was in the dark as far as the action
of the New York Telephone Company
vas concerned.
I'VE are now preparing to give
demonstrations tomorrow" said Mr.
Bell. You can Sc the connections we
have made. and our artists are now re-
hearsing for tomorrow's demonstra-
ton. As far as we are concerned, WE
are ready to go right ahead and give
the service we advertise. OF course,
we will ultimately get the wires we
applied for. There is no reasonable
ground on which the telephone COM
pany can refuse U.S."
A number of the miniature phones
were strung along the wall in the room
and by putting the dooble receiver to
the ear the artists rehearsal Of an
operate selection could be heard.
.Vice-president inc Manager Thurber,
of the New York Telephone Company,

stated by his representative that it was
impossible to say when Mr.. Thurber
could be seen.
