20 Large Properties
Sold by Foreclosure
Only One Parcel Brings More
Than Liens That Are Held
Against II

Some taxpayers Of Father knicker-
booker who thought they had a large
equity in some well located Manhattan
properties had a sad experience in the
real estate market yesterday. Recently
they found themselves unable to meet
the interest on their mortgages, so yes
terday they were the defendants IN
foreclosure actions.
Twenty properties went under the
hammer. and only one parcel. five
story hathouse at 1853 West Seventy
eighth Street, brought more than the
liens against it.
The Saranac apartment house, 40 to
47S West 151st Street, was sold at fore
closure yesterday to the plaintiff for
100000. The sum due on the house
was about $4,000. Consequently the
defendant not only lost this fine house
but he still owes $1,000.
The Morgenthau Realty Company
was defendant in seven foreclosure
actions. The properties are in l4otn
Street. west of Seventh Avenue. Each
site was sold to the plaintiff at about
$4,000 less than the liens against each
parcel.
Robert Fulton Cutting was the plain
tiff in a foreclosure action against the
owner of the big six story fathouse at
the southwest corner Of Fourteenth
Street and Avenue c. He was owed
over $4,000; Mr.. Cutting got the prop
erty for $50, 900.
There were liens for over s26,422
against the house at 309 and 81 East
Forty-sixth Street. The plaintiff got
the property for $4,000.

Monroe also denies the authorship Of

More police arrived after a while,
and they attempted 10 clear the side

for the mob in the shape of bad eggs
and overripe tomatoes. Because Of the
activities Of the police a Darrage FIRE,

sailors, vas turned into the police, and

Sailors and Mob Parade
Finally the women brought about an
armed truce by ceasing their efforts TO
replace the banners. Whereupon the
sailors and mob made up parade,
nearly every member Of which carried
some captured banner or fragment Of
banner, which proceeded around the
block. Tremendous applause from the
crowds which had been drawn TO the
neigh borhood greeted this demonstra-
ton. The famous Jericho Walls"

around the White House was recalled
with glee.

IRON IN. Tribun. Bu~su)

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA big naval
offensive was carried out to-day against
Cameron House, the headquarters Of
the Woman's party piokets, and the en-
envy lines we're broken. to mix the
metaphor a little, even TO the second
and third stories.
Cameron House, the home OF the
Womens Congressional Union and the
Woman's party, is diagonally across
Lafayette Square from the White
House. IL is here that the supply OF
munitions-in the shape OF new ban
ners-and fresh forces of reserves are
kept. So after rioting, little livelier
than usual, had driven the Woman's
party pickets from the White House
gates to-day, mob turned its attention
to Cameron House, from the second and
third balconies of which foated ban
ners making all sorts Of statements,
mentioning Kaiser Wilson and insist
ing that the United States is not de-
mocracy because women do not vote.
The mob had a splendid time, with
no interference from the heavy detach-
ment, consisting OF three policemen,
for some little while. The enemy was
driven behind its Entertainments and
the entire sidewalk was taken and held
by the mob. The police kept the street
open enough to permit the passage OF
automobiles.
Sailors Take the Lead
Finally a group Of sailors decided
that the banners on the balconies
should be torn away. A little group Of
uniformed men, commanded by An ordl-
nary seaman, went away on n double
quick. Soon they came trotting back
with a ladder stretched down their
right flank. supported by the arms Of
the four sailors who were the Nos. in
each group Of four.
The brisk work then done by these
sailors in scaling the wall, capturing
the enemy flags, while frantic inter
ference by the women was beaten off,
would have warmed the cookies Of Sec
rotary DanIels's heart, could he have
seen il.
1--WE have landed marines and all is
peaceful" said one spectator, who evil
IDENTIFY did not know the difference be-
tween marines and bluejackets.
But all was not peaceful. One old
white-haired lady doubled up her fist
and hit a sailor behind the ear crack
which nearly dropped him from the
ladder TO the paving. thirty feet below.
The Italian offensive in the Alps was
duplicated half dozen times, as the
women, after all visible banners had
been torn down, would hang out a
fresh set and the sailors would go up
after them.

Nab Bunco Man

Milan SaJatovich, alias Thomas
Tomich, the man wanted here for
having buncoed a Wilkeson saloon
man out of $1,000 two or three
years ago, is under arrest in San
Francisco for grand larceny, ac-
cording to information obtained
by the police Saturday. An effort
will be made to bring the prisoner
to Tacoma for trial.
Sajatovich posed as philan-
thropist at Wilkeson, and after
gaining confidence of the miners,
offered to give $1,000 in cash to
aid the poor families of his coun-
trymen, the Austrians.
His money was placed in a suit
case, and then he induced a sa-
loonkeeper to put another 81 900
with 1t, as guarantee of good
faith. The suitcase was left In
the saloon, awaiting distribution
of the money. D..
Sajatovich disappeared, and
when the saloonkeeper opened the
suitcase later he found the money
gone. -
A wild search was made for the
bunco man at the time, but no
trace of him was found until the
San Francisco police arrested him
a few days ago.

About Sept. 1, bulletins we're
posted around Camp Lewis that a
bonus of so cents a day would be
paid to men who stayed on the
Job until Oct. /. Many men who
intended quitting the job on Sept.
/ took the offer in good faith and
stayed. Since that time several
hundred men have been laid off,
and where any man has missed
even one day he is being refused
his bonus.
know one case where a man
who has worked there most all

in the rain and caught cold and
laid off the next day, but went to
work the following day, was in
formed by the boss that he had
forfeited his right to his bonus.

FIVE MANSIONS FOR u. S. GUESTS
MilliOna Tres
Furnish the
Palaces
Especial to Tho Times.)

WASHINGTON, sept. I'll. -
When a distinguished mission Is
expected in a European capital,
especially where the countries are
or were monarchies, the question
of housing them is simple.
Some executive in the depart
ment for foreign affairs presses a
button, summons a functionary.
yawns YEARLY and says: Which
palaces are unoccupied?"
He gets the list, picks one and
says:
Prepare this one for use by
the mission next week"
And the thing Is settled - no
worry. no flurry-a nice old pal
ace, with traditions and spooks
and secret chambers, all ready for
occupancy.
But It's different here. We do
not own palaces. We give our
presiden. a nice white colonial
house ma modest park, compared
to what our millionaires own. And
we say to our vice president and
cabinet officers: Go chase your
selves. We pay you $12, 900 year.
Find your own home and fur
nish IT,"
So, when we went into this war
and a flood of missions came to
our shores, the problem of how to
house them was a serious one. But
1t was solved, thanks to the fact
that Washington in the past few
years has become a favorite dwell
ing place of the rich. Their stone
palaces are scattered all over the
burg. And many palace owners
volunteered to turn them over -
house, pantry, wine cellar, SER
wants and all for Unile Sans
guests.
Marshal Joffre and party were
housed in the residence of Henry
White. 1t was natural they should
be, as White had once been am
bassador TO France. Balfour and
his fellow Eglishmen were
lodged in the home of Breckin-
ridge Long, third assistant secre-
tary of state. The Prince of
Udine and the rest of the Italian
mission enjoyed the hospitality of
Joseph Letter, and the Russians
that of Hennen Jennings. The Bel
gian mission went to the home of
Larz Anderson, formerly Ameri-
can minister to Belgium.
The japanese mission, under
Viscount Ishii, is comfortably
housed in the mansion of Perry
Belmont.
