cept in a few instances. Unitedly the

DEALS DEATH WITH THIRD ACE
Poker Players skull fractured by
Thwarted Compsnion.

A pair of aces nestled in the hands
of Charles Preiss, 40, of $50 Hamburg
avenue. as the two cent limit poker game
that was being played in the rear OF
the undertaking shop of Boldermann &
Bierman, at 225 Hamburg avenue. Will
iamsburg. swung into its final round OF
dealing. Through the earlier stages Of
the game aces had been few and far
between in the hands that had been
dealt to PRESS
Gimme three" he said quietly to
Charles Schoenemann, 5S, OF 232 Hull
street. who was dealing. Schoenemann
dealt him one card and then swept up
the dscards that were strewn about the
table. PRESS picked up the card that had
been dealt him. 1t was third ace and
a smile Of satisfaction that spread over
his features turned quickly to one of dis
may when he glanced down at the table
and was unable to find trace OF the two
additional cards that should have been
there to complete his hand.
Just what happened then has not been
made entirely clear. but a bottle filled
with embalming fluid whizzed through
the air and struck Schoenemann on the
head. He crumpled up in his chair and
slipped to the floor unconscious. He died
an hour or so later in Kings County
Hospital. where the surgeons found his
skull had been fractured.
Detectives found Preiss at his home
and placed him under arrest on a charge
of murder. Arraigned before Magistrate
Mcclure in Gates avenue court he was
held without bail for further examina-
ton.

"w0RKING" THEIR EXCUSE
Trixie Had Package to Carry
Pastor Said He Had Some
Calls to Make.

Two New York notables were seen
using their automobiles on gasless yes
terday. Both offered the same excuse
they were going TO work.
Ono was Trixie Friganza Of vaudeville
fame; the other was the Rev. DR.. John
Roach Straton. Trixie Friganza com
pleted last night weeks engagement at
the Colonial Theatre. The Rev. DR..
Straton recently was engaged as pastor
by the Calvary Baptist Church.
Miss Friganza, born Della Gala CHAN.

man William Finnegan of. the Bath
Beach station, who was following orders
by taking names and license numbers of
gasolene users The actress pointed to
a placard on the Limousine, I'm going to
work.
She explained that while she could
have ridden to the theatre on the subway
she was obliged to bring back several
costumes, and as even one costume for
Trixie makes quite a package Patrolman
Finnegan saw the force Of this argument
at once.
The Rev. Or. Straton's automobile was
noticed In the streets. Like Trixie he
believed his professional work entitled
him to use his car. though, of course. he
had no package to carry.
II made a number OF pastoral calls
to-day" he explained to a reporter for

the reporter a copy OF his sermon on

preached at the morning service.
Il am glad to see that THE Sun has
had the Initiative to dig out after this
story" he went on. 'Jf THE SUN wants

IzzY, IN NIGHYIE,
PROVIDES THRILLS
Gallops Through Amazed
Brownsville in Hot Pur-
suit of Thieves.

For the benefit OF those neighbors who
gossiped among themselves in Browns
vile yesterday regarding the totally un-
precedented New Years actions of Isa-
doro Rubin. 442 Newport street. II may
be said in justification Of Isadore-and
Mrs. Isadore-that Isadore was able to
keep the engagement he had for last
night.
1sadore responded slowly, in fact al
most too slowly. when Mrs Isadore
plunged her nmple fingers between his
ribs at yesterday morning and shouted
'1zzy!" with a power that made the
name reverberate through the tenement
canyons. AZ the moment that Isadore' s
eyes opened his face was turned twoard
the bedroom window OF their first floor
fiat. through which the Rubin trousers
were being carefully extracted on the
end of a sharply hooked fishing pole.
II wasn't so much the pants" that
impressed themselves swiftly upon the
mind OF Isadore. Rather. II was the
Rubin financial resource of $40 that nes-
tied ever so snugly in the left hand
pocket that brought him out of bed and
sent him galloping through the hallway
to the street In a night dress that hest
tated and stopped somewhere north OF
his knees.
A gentle morning breeze was sweeping
along Newport street in the opposite d.
rection to that taken by Isadore and two
fleeing figures that seemed impossible
to increase their lead once Isadore got
to running and thinking deeply of his
trousers and The $40. Even the police
man who '... Isadore and heard the
amazed grants of the neighbors, awak-
ened by Mrs. Rubins summons, couldn't
catch up with the fleeing nightshirted
sprinter. Three blocks away from the
Rubin domicile, however. Isadore
pounced upon two men and a pair OF
trousers, which subsequently he slipped
on his legs as he turned his captives
over to the policeman and started for the
Brownsville station.
1sadore made n complaint of burglary
against the prisoners as soon as he fin
ished counting the money which the al
legged burglars hadn't had time to ex-
tract from the pockets of the trousers.
They said they were Benjamin Gotthels.
&c, 225 East Twelfth street. and Samuel
Dublin. %, 1c7 Clinton street, both Man
haitian.
When they were arraigned In New
Jersey avenue court later the police told
Magistrate Foiwell they had a suspicion
sprinter, there will be letup in the
number OF complaints that have been re-
ceived from jewellers In first floor
Brownville flats who awnie in the morn
ing to ind their trous rs and money
gone.
Thirty such complaints have been
made TO the police in the last few days.
but in more than one instance the COM
plainant had to delay his visit to the
police station until tho complainant
wife rustled up new pair of trousers
from neighbors whose affluence per-
mitted them the luxury of an extra pair
OF those essential garments.

Fire started on the fourth floor of the
naval supply warehouse at 16 and is
Concord street. Brooklyn. late yesterday
afternoon and swept the three upper
floors. In which valuable tapestries, oil
paintings and bric-a-brac taken from
converted yachts and big liners. such as
the old Vaterland. had been stored.
The damage was heavy, but neither
navy nor Fire Department officials
would make any estimate. Fire Marshal
Brophy and Naval Intelligence officers
began an investigation.
Mrs. Clara Boyer. standing in the
doorway of the Society for Aid OF
Friendless Women and Children, next
door on Concord street. gave the alarm.
Wisps of smoke floating from a fourth
story window caught her eye. She rang
the fire box in the institution. Frank
Kenny, Waterman at the warehouse. was
notified. Thick smoke on the fourth
floor drove him backward.
Three alarms were turned in by the
firemen. The flames had already crept
TO the upper floors. The warehouse is a
stones throw from the Brooklyn Bridge
and haze of the drifting smoke spread
over the entire section. Fireman John
Hess OF Truck Company lis was over
come on the sixth floor and was carried
10 Salety by MS comrades. After treat
ment he stayed.
Ensign A. L. Wholey. assistant sup
ply officer at the New York Navy Yard.
Il half mile away, quickly reached the
scene. Capt r. l.. Slingluff immed-
ately placed a detachment OF marines
from the navy yard on duty.
1t was learned that earlier in the day
a detail OF sailors had been sent to the
warehouse from the navy yard TO take
away a supply OF iron hunks. The three
lower floors contain n considerable guam
tity of hunks, bedding. chairs and other
furniture used on ships. The sailors left
the building early in the afternoon.
Kenny. the Waterman. quizzed by the
Fire Marshal, could give no explanation
of the origin OF the blaze.
Policeman John Fuch of the Adams
street station guided twenty women and
children from the Institution next door
to city garage under the bridge.
The building Is valued at about
100000 and was taken over by the Navy
Department a year ago for use as an
overflow supply warehouse. 1t Is an
annex OF Building No. in the navy
yard. and formerly was the Troy Steam
Laundry. II extends $50 feet on Liberty
