New Paint to Speed Up
Shamrock Was Not Used
Boat Would Have Received Coat
of Black Lead if There Had
Been No Race Monday

That the Shamrock w was to have
'teen painted with black lead if the chal-
lenger and the Resolute had not raced
on Monday was disclosed yesterday by
an official Of the Staten Island Ship
building Company. One of the dry
docks had been engaged for that pur-
pose, and was held in readiness Mon
day morning, he said. The black lead
was to have been worked up to high
polish, with the designed purpose of
causing the challenger to slip through
the water more easily than would have
been possible with ordinary paint.
The black lead intended for the YES

Of the Staten Island company on Sun

Sir Thomas Upton. The official stated
that the black lead would have in

plumbago, and is worked into a high

Arrests Said to
Explain Thefts i'm
West Side Flats
5 Negroes, One a Woman,
Held for RObberies Said
to Amount to $4,000:
Confession Is Claimed

In the arrest of three negroes, two
men and a woman, detectives of the
East Tooth Street station say they have
solved the mystery that has surrounded
the robbery of innumerable apartment
houses, extending from Seventy-second
Street to 121st Street, on the West Side.
within the last five months.
Detectives Marion and Fitzpatrick.
who arrested the negroes, say they have
record of thirty apartments robbed
and that the value of the stolen prop
erty, consisting chiefly of pewelry and
clothing, will amount to $4,000.
The prisoners are Wendell Beaubein,
of 261 West 134th Street; Julian C.
Burton, of 131 West 138th Street, and
Lucille Wright, a dressmaker, of 241
West 124th Street.
Beaubein and Burton, the police say,
are elevator operators who haven't
followed their regular occupations in
recent months. Detective Marion saws
beaubein would answer an apartment
"ad" for an elevator operator and an
hour or two after he had accepted the
JOB, he would telephone to Burton.
The charge is that Beaubein would
INFORM Burton as to what tenants hal
gone out and Burton would then jimm
the doors of the deserted apartments
and carry. out the loot. The stolen
property, it is alleged, was first taken
to the rooms of the Wright woman.
Inc detectives captured Beaubein
yesterday morning after they had
placed a decoy advertisement for an
elevator operator in tho ,norn;nr No
perS. location at Ninetieth Street
and Broadway was given. Beaubein
the detectives say. applied for the
JOB. He was Immediately arrested

they say he confessed.
Inc detectives then had him tcle-
phone to Burton to meet him. Bur
ton did, and the two were taken to
the West Tooth Street station. At
the station they implicated the Wright
woman, the police say. Detectives
went with the negroes to various pawn
shops and found quantities of goods
when the negroes had pawned. A
large quantity of the booty was found
IN the rooms of the Wright woman.
Among the victims of the apart
meht burglars were: Moe Bushbaum.

that she had recently been informed
that a 1920 renewal would cost $500
Sexton reported the case to Com
missioner Of Accounts David HirshfelG,

Man Felled; $500 Taken
One Of Three Who Ran From
Victim Is Caught

Aaron Goldman, sixty-fve years old
of 2l4 Hughes Street, was robbed of
three $500 bills yesterday by three men
who followed him into the hallway of
26 Foryth Street, where he had gone to
call on friends. One Of the trio feled
him with a blackjack and the others
searched him and got the money.
Detective John w. Finn, who had
seen the three men follow Goldman
into the hallway and emerge few min
utes later on the run, chased one, who
ran north, and overlook him. The pris-
oner said he was Harry Karp, of Gid
East Houston Street. Goldman, who
was able to 60 home after receiving
medical attention, identified him as one
of the robbers.
Goldman drew the money to defray
the expenses of trip to Europe. He
is an officer of the Kovno Relief So
