Silver Does Not Tempt
Bafaed Liquor Thieves
Police Trap Suspects in Rye;
Former Butler in En-
tered House Taken

Policemen who regarded late motor
lists with suspicion stopped Axel John
son, of 558 Lexington Avenue; Holder
Landin, Of 301 East Thirty third Street
and Thomas Cooper, of 274 East Sixty
fourth Street, all of this city, in Rye
before dawn yesterday and placed them
under arrest when they discovered a
three-inch bit and brace and two cleo
trio torches in suitcases which were
otherwise empty.
AS they reached the police station
with their prisoners maid at the
home. of J. NJ. Morehead at Milton
Point telephoned that burglars had
been there, gaining access to the house
by boring a three-inch hole below the
lock Of door and unlocking it by
means of the aperture. Nothing had
been stolen.
johnson was identified as former
butler at the Morehead home. Accord
ing to the police, he admitted that he
and his companions had gone there to
steal liquor which he knew was stored
in the house. They found. however
that steel door had been put on the
storeroom since he had been there and
departed without taking anything
There was valuable silverware in plain
view, but the police say their prison
ers told them they sought nothing but
liquor.

r. al Estate News

what that phrase means is obtained by
striking an average of building con-
struction permits granted over period
of years. In selection of seven years,
from 1912 to 1918 inclusive, the ay-
erage yearly New York construction
item may be set down as S187,000,000.
The total value of projected New York
City buildings recorded at the various
city building bureaus IN the first half
of this year was S1S1, 1,453,919.
Scarcity of Mechanics
II further demonstration Of the
strength Of the building market is
wanted, let it be known that 1t seems
futile to wait for much lower wage
scales for skilled building mechanics.
when contractors in the Bronx and
elsewhere are bidding $11 and $12 a
day for the most proficient workmen in
some Of the trades and cannot get them
even at that figure.
In order to further set forth the
strength Of the present building ma
terial prices and construction costs,
citation may be made of the fact that
in the keenest kind of competition last
weck-that in Public School 13, altera"
tion and addition--one contractor fig
ured the job at $419,300, while his rival
contractors were within 100000 of each
other, among whom were the shrewdest
building material buyers in New York.
The foregoing is typical Of the whole
market, whether on private or public
work. 1t establishes beyond doubt the
fact that the bottom level Of building
material prices in this market this year
has been reached, and possibly until
next May as well.

Armed Veterans
Defy Sunday Burial
Ban to Honor Hero
Ignore Refusal of Baltimore
Cemetery Officials; Axes
Carried to Batter Gates;
Police Refuse to Interfere

BALTIMORE, Sept. 4.-Defying ef-
forts of cemetery officials to prevent a
Sunday funeral several thousand Veter-
ans of Foreign Wars, including hum
dreds OF ex-service men here for "Bud-
die Week." to-day buried Private John
Harrison Lambert, a Baltimorean, with
full military honors, in Western Ccme-
terry. The body of Private Lambetr, who
died in France in 1918, had been brought
back to the United States recently. The
Maryland Veterans of Foreign Wars
planned to have military funeral dur
ing "Buddie Week" and selected to-day
for the ceremony.
Rules of the cemetery, however, for
bid Sunday funerals there, and, al
though a Health Department permit
had been obtained, Superintendent
William Manger declared that the.
funeral could not be held. When the
veterans persisted he announced that
the grave, which had been dug last
Tuesday, had been reflled, and, in re-
policemen were sent to the cemetery.
The ex-service men, however, pro-
ceeded with their plans, and, with sew
eral thousand men, including eighty
armed with loaded rifles and others
carrying axes, escorted the body to the
cemetery.
Thousands of persons lined the street
for the eight blocks over which the cor
tege proceeded and fell in behind the
procession to the cemetery. The vet
Grams, who included G. A. R. men as
we'll as World War men, declared that
they would break down the cemetery
gate if it were closed to them. In the
hearse were placed several shovels to
reopen the grave. On arriving at the
cemetery, however, they found the gate
open, and entered while the policemen
looked on without offering any inter
ference.
After the service at the grave, which,
in spite of the superintendent state
ment. was found to be still open, sew
eral ex-soldiers volunteered to fill the
excavation. Taps were sounded and a
firing squad fired volley. In the
crush at the cemetery five persons were
overcome by heat. including Howard
Armiger. an ex-soldier, of Philadelphia.
Lambert's mother had had a monu-
ment made in Italy for her sons grave.
He was a composer, and shortly before
his death had written a soldier song
entitled "Goodby"

$50 Veterans Are Guests
Of l.. Gordon Hamersley
Disabled Ex-Service Men Enjoy
Contests Over Week End
at Estate ON Hudson

One hundred and fifty veterans of
the LIST Division. including wounded
men from the Polytechnic, Fox Hills and
other hospitals. were the guests of L.
Gordon Hamersley at his Cruger Island
estate on the Hudson over the week
end.
The men made the trip from New
York in the yacht John Gully, arriving
at Cruger Island shortly before 6
o'clock Saturday evening. A relay of
automobiles conveyed the wounded men
to the Hamersley estate.
Yesterday morning was devoted to
football and baseball. The keen riv-
airy between the infantry and artillery
which still exists even among the dis
abled veterans, resulted in a scoreless
tie in the baseball contest that was
decided, even after a number of extra
innings had been played, by the flip of
coin.
A track meet was the event of the
afternoon, prizes of gold watches, silver
cigarette cases and silver match boxes
being awarded to the winners in the
running and field events. Motion pic
lures. supplied by the signal corps of
the United States army, were shown in
the evening.

Town Rents Its Useless
Jail for Cobbler's Shor
Special Dispatch to The T,-ibune

JEFFERSON. Mass, Sept. 4.--This
little town, like many another in
Massachusetts, has fine Jail, but no
use for it, and so, unlike some Of the
other towns, has rented it rather than
have it stand idle. The tenant is An
tonia Rinna, who pegs shoes in the re-
ception room and hunks in either of
the two cells. whichever happens to hit
his fancy.
Antonia is very proud of his combi-
nation shop and residence, which is on
the main automobile highway north
from Worcester. He has no fear of rob-
bers, as the Jail was built to resist
mob attack. 1t is one-story affair,
we'll ventilated and furnished with all
the comforts of home.
