LAKE PLACID, N. Y, Sept e.
Police of the principal Adirondack viii
lagos are cooperating with the police
of New York, Albany and other cities
to the south, and Malone, Plattsburg
and Montreal in the north, in hunt
for the burglar, who broke into
the upper Saranac Lake camp of
Mrs. Isaac N. Seligman, of New
York, and escaped after rob-
bling her and her camp guest, Mrs.
Adolph S. Lewisohn, widow of the New
York finsncier, of jewerly valued at ap-
proximately $4,000. Descriptions of
the robber wer sent to-cay to hun
dreds of police departments.
Mrs. Seligman, who first reported the
robbery to the police of the village of
Turper Lake, said that she was awak-
ened by noise in her bedroom at 5
o'clock in the. morning She did not
throw on the room light, but instead
used small hand fiashlight to inves-
tigate. She first discovered that the
drawer of her dresser was on the floor,
with it's contents strewn about the
room.
When upon further investigation
Mrs. Seligman discovered a masked
man beneath her bed she did not faint.

The novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs
tells somewhat exciting story OF a
titled English baby cast away on the
west coast of Africa to be reared by. a
maternal ape and finally in manhooda
estate restortcd as lord Of his lands and
castles. But a satisfactory dranatiza-
ton has hardly been realized by Major
Herbert Woodgate and Arthur Gibbons.
Two Of the ten episodes are without
dialogue, for the resounding Of guH
and haw in imitation of inarticulste
apes cannot be called dialogue. A great
deal of the remainder of The play is
painful gibberish.
Last nights audience for time made
polite efforts to refrain from laughter
at what was manifestly intended to be
serious business, bat it was not equal
to the test. The role Of Tarzan laid
too great responsibility upon Ronald
Adair. According to book Tarzan is as
handsome as a god, tall as a giant,
lightfooted as a gazelle and agile rs a
monkey, while his favorite promenade
was through the upper avenues of the
treetops. Mr. Adair didn't qualify in
any respect, except in booming, hairy

nished to the builder from other mem
bers in the ring, accommodation bids,
all of them, of course, in excess of his
own bid.
Another ingenious device unearthed
by our investigation was their so-called
blacklisting system. A member of
their association would put in claim
against the builder for extra WORK. If
the builder did not promptly submit to
arbitration by the association members,
he would be blackl sted. From then
on he was a marked man. If he re-
quested sealed bids on any new job,
they would first be unsealed by the as

to all of the bids, without the knowl-
edge of tho builder, whatever sum suit.

standing claim. This method not only
afforded sure payment of claim which
may never have been due, but resulted,
according to our files, in collection of
the same claim at least two or three
times. OF course, they had their code
of practices, and were powerful enough
to maintain a strangle hold upon the
tile industry in the metropolitan dis
trict and the vicinity.

Women Honor Mrs. Falco,
Candidate for Alderman

A reception was held yesterday at
the Standish Arms Hotel, in Columbia
Heights, Brooklyn, for Mrs. Mabel
Falco, the first woman to be candi-
date for Alderman in Brooklyn Mrs.
Falco is candidate for the Republican
nomination in the LIST Assembly Dis
trict of Brooklyn, the SD Aldermanic
District.
The occasion proved rallying point
for women residents in apartment
houses OF the district, who turned out
en- masse to give Mrs. Falco an en-
thusiastic Endorsement. The meeting
was announced as designed to arouse
interest among women of Columbia
Heights, and it drew large numbers Of
feminine enthusiasts from all over the
district. They came attired in recep-
ton gowns.
Mrs. Falco is running against Arthur
V. Gorham, the incumbent, and Ed
ward j. Mackin, the mems candidate
for the Republican nomination. So far
the political leaders of the district
have made no Endorsement.

$4,000 Saranac Camp Thief
Outwts Night Intruder, but Forces Him to Flee
Before She Learns He Had Robbed Her Guest,
Mrs. Adolph Lewisohn

Shc needed his warming not to scream,
remaining calm as he crawled from his
hiding place, covering her with a re-
volvey. She backed. to n wall and, un-
noticed by him, pushed the button con-
nected with bell, which alarmed her
maid.
+ Evidently the burglar heard the bell,
for he dashed for the door just as the
maid, responding to her mistress's cell,
was about to enter, The maid screamed
loudly, awakening the household, and
the masked man dashed through a win
dow and down toward the lake shore,
where he disappeared among trees.
1t is thought that the burglar arrived
and left camp by boat, as police dogs
followed his footsteps from the camp
to the waters edge, where the trail
was lost.
Investigation after the robber had
made his escape showed that he had
also entered the room of Mrs. Lewisohn
and that jcwelry Of great value was
missing.
No complete list of missing articles
is available, but it is known to include
a diamond ring valued at $4,000, and
green jade necklace of great worth.
1t is believed that the robber waa

Return From Europe,
Sept. 81, Lockwood Says
6 COMMITTEES Drafts Report
Counsel to Go Deeper Into
Affairs of Big Fire and
Life Insurance Companies

The Lockwood Joint Legislative Com
mattees which is Investigating the hous-
ing situation, will resume it's hearings
IN the week beginning September 25,
according to an announcement made
yesterday. Seuator Charles C. Lock-
wood, the chairman, said that Samuel
tntermyer, the committees chief
counsel is expected home from Europe
September 81, and that the inquiry
would be resumed a few days later.
ar. Lockwood said that the commit
tee was preparing preliminary report
OF its work, including such subjects as
the "stranglehc!d" condition within
dettrick prosecutions and the Lock
wood rent laws, as to which there have
been varying interpretations in the
courts OF Brooklyn and Manhattan
Counsel Follows Developments
1t is said that Mr.. Untermyer in his
absence from the city has been keep
ing In close touch with matters per-
tanning to the inquiry, and will have
some sensational revelations to make
during the course of the investigation.
1t is thought that these will revolve
mainly about the big life and fire i'm
surance companies, whose affairs were
being examined when the committee
temporarily suspended sessions on
June "a.
At that time, Mr.. Untermyer, point
ing to she practices of some of these
corporations which had just been re-
vealed. said he had seen enough to
satisfy him shat some OF those COM
panies require a thorough investiga-
ton, but which is not within the juris-
diction Of the committee" He promised,
however, TO delve deeper into their
operations, referring particularly to
the Prudential Insurance Company,
whose president, Forrest +. Dryden,
was closely questioned on the witness
stand by Mr.. Untermyer.
The Prudential has since requested
that an inquiry of its affairs be made
by the New Jersey State Department
of Banking and Insurance This re-
quest WAS granted, and an official in
vestigation by the New Jersey authori-
ties is in progress. 1t is possible that
this investigation will be ignored by
the Lockwood committee and that the
latter will proceed with its inquiry rs
FAR rs its powers permit. In this con-
nection it is pointed out that Mr..
Untermyer had said on the floor of the
committeeman "the companies are so
PV"SAtuA, gnu tucii Legislative agencies
so active that some of the superintend-
ents of insurance have been rubber
stamps to record the will of the COM
panies."
Fire Exchange Under Scrutiny
Another phase that probably will be
taken up again is the New York Fire
Insurance Exchange, which has agreed
to make certain adjustments IN con-
nection with the conduct of the ex-
change, so that mutual companies might
be admitted to membership. 1t was Mr.
Unternayer's opinion that several OF
the regulations of the exchange were
in violation of the law
The exchange members recently re-
tanned Elihu Root to take care of their
interests. Mr.. Root soon thereafter
made public an opinion declaring the

The section of Don Juan's life dis
played last evening at the Garrick re-
vealed that versatile debauchee in his
most lugubrious mood. 1t represented
him at time when the frigid breath
of meditation was cold upon his neck,
and he had begun to abandon the white
arms and moonlight for literary pur-
suits.
Thus, in the first scene, after he
had assembled the balcony and had ar
ranged rendezvous with an impas-
stoned beauty, he turned her over to
a friend and went home to compose his
memoirs. He had reached the remi-
niscent rather than the remorseful age,
and he was beginning to enjoy the
roseate recollections of the past more
than he did the hot actualities of the
present. He had "kissed them all from
North to South" and was now content
to think it over. However, he was will
ing to lend his little red book of adj
dresses to a pal in case it was needed

new CAVE PROVES
PART OF OLD ONE
Walls of Ky. Cavern Brilliant
CrystaIIine-Skeleton Found
That of Early Settler.

CAVE CITY, Ky, Jan. 26.-Furthe
explorations of the cave recently dis
covered about twelve miles from this
city disclose that the cavern really Is
a branch of a cave that was dis
covered in 1917. The opening now
has been Investigated to a point two
miles from the mouth, which Is about
three miles from the entrance to
Mammoth Cave. The whole region
seems to be honeycombed with caves.
The walls of the new cavern are OF
brilliant crystalline formation and the
roof Is SO high in some places as to
be beyond the rays of the explorers
torches. Many interesting discoveries
probably will be made as the search
progresses.
The skeleton found not far from
the opening, and which was thought
to be that Of an aboriginal, has been
pronounced by medical authority
as probably that Of an early white
settler or a fugitive. The remnants
of the skull seem to indicate normal
formation along Caucasian lines. The
forehead was we'll developed and the
lower jaw was not prognathous.
The dampness Of the air at the
point where the skeleton was found
would account. it is said. for the COM
paratively rapid decomposition of all
save the bony structure.
