New York, Aug. 1.-The police of the Fort Hamilton station, at Eighty-siXth street and Fifth av- enue, Brooklyn, prepared yesterday for open warfare on the street cor rcr gangs in the precinct following an attack by gangsters on policeman. patroman Ignatus O'Leary in battle with four men early In the morning was stabbed on the head and face and beaten into insensi- 1 hiIity When he revived he pursued his assaiants, cornered them in taXicab and arrested them with the 1 help of other policemen.
 The attack on O'Leary is the ch max of a series of episodes in which 1 the police have endeavored to check growing defiance by street gangs. The gangstcrs are not put in the vicious criminal class by the pre- cnct police, but are of the corner | oafer type and are described as growing menace. They have been particularly active of late on Satur- day nights and several have been arrested for disordcrIy conduct and l fined.
 Battle In LunChrOOm OLeary was going to his home, 442 Glst street, at 2 d. m. and had i stopped in a lunchroom at 476 69th street when he encountered the four men. The policeman was in civil { ian clothes. but the four men knew him as a policeman who had been active in cleaning the corners.
 When O'Leary entered the place they were having an argument about the bill for their food and the coun- tcrman appealed to the policeman 10 protect him from beating. When 1 OIcary advised the men 10 pay up and get out they turned on him.
 The policeman was unarmed and was al the mercy of the four when one of them slashed him in the chin with a knife and hacked at the back of his head. The others punched him and kicked him until he fell insonsiblc. Then they ran from the place and fled in a taXicab. With Patrolmen Carroll and Sul- lVian, who came to his assistance, i O'Leary communicated another cab and set out for the district in which he knew the men made their head quarters,
 Captured in 1aNicab.
 At siXty-siXth street and Elevent h avenue they were found in tho taXi- cab and surrendered under the re- yolvers or the police.
 | One of the prisoners Frank Cana dary, 27 years old, Of 952 Seventy third street, was said by the police 10 have been fined $50 two weeks , ago for disorderly conduct. His asso- Ciatcs said they were Thomas Me l Naughton, 2S, of 36S Eighty eighth street; Robert Mccarthy, 4. of 295 | SiNtY-seVenth street. and Arthur Sampson, 24. Of 9257 @i7th street. Richmond Hill.

BRANDING SCENE IN
 PICTURE THRILL

One of the most trenuous scenes of her career!
 This was the opinion of all who witnessed the filming of the brand ing episode in "The Cheat" Starring Pola Negri, produced by George Fitz- maurice and which will be shown at the Liberty theatre tonight. Jack Holt has featured role and Charles de Roche leads the supporting cast.
 It was the latter, who played the scene with Miss Negri, and after it was over, both were exhausted by the strain, and several bruises tes, tified to the realism injected into the dramatic action.
 The episode shows de Roche in the role of a crook parading as a Hindu prince, branding the beaut- iful star on the shoulder with 2 tigers head-denoting that she is hls property. This IS afler she has become financially indebted to him and then tries to pay him with money. He calls her cheat and brands her. Later this brand saves her husband and her own peace of mind, after she has shot the Hindu, and the burden of guilt is assumed by the husband, played by Mr. Holt.
 The scene had to be made witt every realistic touch to be effective worked up to high nervous tension The two players went through sev eral rehearsals, and finally camera was called Then with redoubled in tensity they proceeded to enact th' situation which, on the screen, l! said to be one of the most ire mendeous ever filmed.

THE BANK OF SEWARD FOR SERVICE
POLISH JEWS HAVE
 SUICIDE EPIDEMIC C
(By Associated Press)

By Associated PreSSJ
 WARSHAW, March 17.-An unpre- cedented epidemic of suicides is rag ing among Jews who were ruined by the recent economic crisis in Po- land. The Jewish press asserts that at no period of Jewish history have so many cases of suicide among the Jews been recorded as during recent months in the big cities of Poland.
 Most of the suicides are among people who lost their fortunes in speculation But there were many cases of suicide among owners ot old firms who were unable to stand the nervous strain of the critical time.
 It is said to be significant that suicides have occurred not only among unorthodox Jews, but also among the orthodox ones.
 To combat the spirit of despond- ency among religious Jews, the Council of Warshaw Rabbis issued manifesto exhorting the congrega- tions to help their members in dis tress and prevent them from com hitting desperate acts which are contrary to the Jewish religion and traditions. A similar condemnation of suicides was announced in reso lution of Jewish Merchant Con gress held recently in Warshaw.

SEATTLE NOW WORRIED BY BIRTH RATE SLUMP;
 LOWEST IN THIS STATE

SEATTLE, Mar 17.-This matter of having babies-it apparently isn't done so much any more.
 "Year by year, in every sphere, 7 murmured Dr. Paul A. Turner, state director of health, yesterday, as he perused the 1924 vital statistics, they're getting lesser and lesser"
 The figures for the year, just passed show
 A decline of the birth rate per 100000 of population from 1,797 in 1923 to 1,780 in 1924. That Seattle has the lowest birth rate of any city in the state.
 That Japanese babies are being born at three times the white birth rate. For every 1000 whites in the state last year there were seventeen white babies; for every 1000 Japa nese there were f1fty-fve Japanese babies.
 Births are still keeping ahead oi deaths, however, numbering 2',634 in the state as against 14,550 deaths
 There are more births on the pop u1ation basis in Yakima than any where else in the state, the figures show, that city being credited witf birth rate of thirty per 1000 Q population, as compared with Sc attle's seventeen.

FISHING AFFECTED
BY DROUGHT

Many local fishermen have stated
that in their opinion that many fish
died last summer as a result of so
many of the smaller streams drying
up and during the past winter
months number of fish were frozen
to death 1t seems that wherever
possible the fish when the dry season
came made their way to the head
waters of the streams and perished
there. Latest reports are to the eff
feet that there are practically no fish
in Bennett creek, while several fine
catches have been reported from Can
yon Greek. 1t is believed that the
fish in Canyon Creek, which also
dried up during the summer made
their way to Long Tom before the
water in the stream had all disap-
peared and consequently lived.
