Masked ROBBERS OBTAIN BIZ
SUM FROM MATTRESSES.
Threaten Father end Son With Re.
vOlvers and Get Away
With $3.50.

New Orleans, Feb. 1.-Two mask
ed negroes sawed their way into the
house of William Mculynn, who re-
sides with his father. Patrick Nc
Glynn, at 40 Clara street, at '11:45
o'clock Tuesday night and, at the
point of q revolver, forced young Nc
Glynn out of his bed and made him
lead them to his fathers room. Up
ON reaching the Older McGlynn's
room one of the negroes made the
son stand against the mantlepiece
while the other grasped the father,
who is eighty-two years old, by the
throat and threatened to choke him
If he made an outcry.
Dragging the old man from his
bed, one Of the negroes lifted the
top mattress and extracted q purse
containing $3.50. Keeping the two
McGlynns covered" with pistol Of
large calibre, the masked negroes
backed out of the room to the third
room OF the house and made their
escape by leaping through the win
dow through which they had gained
entrance.
The negro wearing the white mask
and light soft hat, dropped both the
mask and hat In the room Of the
elder McGlynn and these are being
held by the detectives in hope Of q
clew which will establish the identity
Of the marauders.
Telling Of the robbery, William
McGlynn said he was awakened by
hearing footsteps in the room behind
his, along which runs q gallery. Ris
ing his head he inquired rs that you
father?" It was then that he saw
two negroes standing besides his bed.
One Of them thrust pistol in his
face and with an oath ordered him
out of bed and lead them to his faith
er's room, saying they would blow
his brains out II he said word.
That one of the negroes was IA
mi1iar with the house and the habits
OF Patrick McGlynn is shown by the
fact that ais soon as the old man was
dragged from his bed the negro in
the dark suit and black mask went
right to the place where the money
was concealed without asking to be
told its location.
At late hour Thursday night q
number Of detectives and patrolmen
were securing the neighborhood fol
the robbers.

Although some of the council were late in arriving, all were on hand when the meeting was called to order by Mayor Diamond last night and con- siderable business was dispatched in- eluding the adjustment of number of tax protests which seemd reasonable in the eyes of the city dads. After the reading and approval of the min- utes of the previous meeting, there being no communications, the city at torney reported that the contract for clearing away the snow during the winter months had been duly signed and executed and filed with the clerk and the bonds of the contractor had also been approved by the finance committee.
 After the reading and approval of a number of claims and accounts against the city, the council took up the vari- ous tax protests which have been en- tered and endeavored to thrash out their merits. This task Lehman sub

mitted was some job and in his opin- ! ion it would be necessary to hire an office in order to handle all the com l plaints which he declared had come l in the him already. He therefore beg ged to be excused from the proposed
 committee on adjustment stating that he could not afford the expense of maintaining kick headquarters. Lehman stated that he had received
 written complaints from only few and these he had considered The com plaint of the Golden Gate hotel was in
 his opinion justified as the building
 and contents had cost less than three
 thousand dollars and the owner James
 SwartZell, was asked to pay on an as- sessed valuation of ten thousand.
 Swartzell was willing to pay the sum of one hundred and twenty-five dol lars and he thought that was enough. lie also thought that Mrs. Kemp had been assessed unreasonably high. The lady was willing to give the sum of two dollars and fifty cents in place of the four dollars assessed and he there fore moved that both offers be accepted as payment in full. The motion was accepted and it was so ordered.
 After some arguments pro and con it was finally decided that the tax adjustments should be left to the
 lnance committee assisted by Coun-
 man Lomen and it was the general oninion that no attention should be
 paid to tax protests not made in writ ing.
 Councilman Lehman then brought up the matter of the annual carnival, .lating that Sister Louis of the Holy Cross hospital had asked that the council set New Years eve as the date for holding the carnival. He therefore moved that the council set that date for holding the benefit and also appoint committee to assist in the movement The motion was seconded by Thompson but, before the question was put, Councilman Lomen brought up the question of the division of the funds derived from the carnival, stating that it was his belief that one half of the funds raised through the carnival had been given to the hospi- tai and the remainder placed in the indigent fund. Councilman Blake thought that this was matter which should be given consideration and moved that the question of division be held over until a later period.
 This motion was second by Lomen. pr. Mustard, also spoke on the sub- Ject offering strong objection against any division of the funds and declaring that the council had no right to make such division. Nearly all ultimately look hand in the discussion and after some more suggestion. proposals and what not, a committee was appointed of all of the members with exception of the mayor and with Leh- 4nann as chairman.
 The council then listened to some more tax objections on the part of Dan Halpin and l.. Seidenyerg but took no action beyond referring them to the finance committee. Aterward the council adjourned.
