By laying down an intensive milk bottle barrage,' John N. Hayes, driver for the Dewhurst Dairy company, beat off two highwaymen who attempted to hold him up at the point of revolver at 1:30 o'clock this morning, in Mad ison avenue.
 Hayes was driving his team along Madison avenue when two men sud- denly jumped in front of the wagon anud ordered him to halt. One of the robbers grabbed the horses head while the other pointed a revolver at the driver and ordered him to cough up.' Hayes compiled with the command, but instead of coughing up" his cash grabbed a couple of milk bottles and started to give battle. The man who had caught hold of the horse released his grip and took to the open spaces as a bottle whizzed by his ear. The highwayma who fourished the re- voiv CT, ducked one bottle and retreat ed in great disorder before Hayes could get another shot. The attempt ed robbery has been reported to the police for investi ticr.

 Gin ,s-.

The mystery of the unidentifie man who was found dead in a saloon at 1s4 Railroad avenue yesterday afternoon shortly after 2 o'clock was cleared up this morning following an investigation by Acting Medical Ex- aminer Dr. Edward Fitzgerald.

BOARD FACING
 MILK PROBLEM

@With the advent of the warm weather the Department of Health is faced with the problem of supplying pure milk to needy families in the city and plans, while not yet complet- ed, are in the making to handle the situation said Health Officer Dr. William H. Coon at his office in the Welfare building this morning.
 'It is not only a question of sup plying the milk,'' he said, "but after the milk is supplied, how are the people going to keep it cool and fit for the feeding to the children un- less we take means to provide them with ice chests for the preservation of the milk ?''
 At present the milk supply to the needy is distributed from the Well fare building but it is the plan of the Department in time to extend the work and operate on a system akin to that of New York city which has established milk stations throughout the city and where milk can be bought for one and two cents a glass. pr. Coon is working on a plan al present with local dealers for the supply of milk and it is expected that some of the milk will come from the cows at the Hillside farm.

GETS INFORMATION ON
 VICE INVESTIGATION

Excitement attending yesterdays controversy between Prosecuting At torney Alexander L. Delaney and Lieutenant Fred Bozeman of the Burns squad. lessened somewhat to- day, but promises to flare forth anew at any time. The prosecutor is now gathering additional information on the manner in which the investiga- ton of vice conditions in Bridgeport was carried out, and intimated today that there will be something doing very shortly.
 The exact character of the next step which will be taken by Delaney is not definitely known. The prose cutor said this morning, that he has issued no warrants as the result of the third degree methods used on Frank Cozza, alleged white slayer, Saturday afternoon, but did not deny that arrests were demanded.
 Regarding the scuffle which is a1- leged to have occurred between De Laney and Bozeman in the police su- perintendent's office yesterday morn ing. the prosecutor has little to say except to deny the story. Delaney declared this morning that he merely took hold of Bozeman's arm and asked him to be seated, and the Burns man in wrenching himself free, stuck his elbow through the glass in a bookcase The New Yorker is sai to have been wildly excited at the time but neither Of the men attempted to attack the other.
 Michael Arnolsky, of the 'tvice squad,''' who has been mentioned as one of the men who administered the beating to Cozzal was cleared of this allegation today, by Prosecutor De- Laney- Arnolsky is said not to have placed his hands on the man for the purpose of injuring him in any way. This developm ent puts the blame for the assault solely upon Bozeman.
 Although none of the officials di- rect1y connected with the trouble would make any predictions today re garding future action, it seems cer- tain that new developments are due to occur inMn ediately. The imp1ica- ton of Prosecuting Attorney Delaney and Captain Edwar1 O. Cronan of the detective bureau in the investigation should bring about a show own without further delay.
