From now on tramps and other persons who can't give a good account of themselves had better stcor clear of Flatbush. The police tho Twenty third precinct are so thoroughly stirred up over the Schoeneck episode that Acting Captain Zimmerman has given orders to arrest every suspicious looking individual who shows himself on the streets In the Twenty ninth ward. There have been plenty such of late. The captain himself told an Eagle reporter that because the precinct had been practically free of crime since last fall tho men had become a little careless in picking up beggars and vagrants who have no visible means of subsistence. The crusade was begun yesterday anil has already resulted in four arrests.

A felk.w who gave his name as John Mc.Mann and said he lived at 100 Nassau was caught begging in Clarkson street and was promptly loaded into the patrd wagon and conveyed to the lockup. Justice Steers sent him to the penitent iary for three months. L'nder ordinary circumstances the prisoner would have got off with ten days in Jail, as there was no charge against him except that of vagrancy. But the magistrate has promised to assist the police to the best of his ability in driving all objectionable characters out of Flatbush and will impose the maximum penalty In every case where the prisoner cannot show that he has means of subsistence or is an honest man out of work. The other prisoners are Gustave Herzberg, a tough looking Russian; James Smith, who said he was an American but looked and spoke like a Pole, and Antonio Devito.

Herz berg and Smith were arrested while making a house to house canvass trying to sell cheap pictures. Their actions were thought to be suspicious, for the reason that they called at nouses of wealthy residents where there was no possible chance of disnosinrr of tholr Tho or. 7, 1 be appearanceof the peddlers was also against them. They claimed that they were in the employ of a New York art concern and lived at a Rmr rv lnrio aminatlon was postponed until Tuesday to give the police an opportunity to find ou; someimng aDout them. The case of the Italian, who admitted that he had no home, was also set over.

There have been many complaints from residents of Clarkson street to the effect that they are constantly being annoyed by peddlers and beggars. Those belonging to the latter class invariably claim that they have insr hdon which 1 noSD1 al hch at the foot of Clarkson street, and have no prospect but starvation unless alms are given them. Dr. Arnold, superintendent of the Kings County hospital, told the reporter recently that what the city needed was a work house where sick paupers cculd be sent and then the hospital would not be crowded by the class of patients who, when they got well, had no home to go to. The Clarkson street beggars will hereafter be summarily dealt with by the police and persistent peddlers will receive the same treatment If the residents will take the trouble to notify the police.

Every effort has been made to capture the burglar who was shot last Thursday morning by Mr. George Schoeneck in the kitchen of his home on Avenue but without success, and the police have now almost given tip hope of ever finding a trace of him. Captain Zimmerman is convinced that the robber was a stranger around Flatbush or else he would not have attempted to enter a house so clo.se by the police station. It is believed that the burglar was a Western man. That is also the opinion of Detective Sergeant Kennedy of the Twenty third precinct, who i working on the case.

He said: "That fellow was too willing to commit murder for an Eastern crook. He heard some one coming downstairs and had plenty of time to escaDe through the open window. Instead of that he laid for Mr. Schoeneck with a knife. That weapon, by the way.

is another proof that the rohber came from the West. Why. it's a regular bowie knife. The whole affair was of the rough Western type, and if my experience counts for anything there was no New York or Brooklyn man concerned in it. Early this morning Policeman Joyce of the Twenty third precinct arrested another suspicious character.

The man. a tough looking citizen, was hanging around at the corner of Lincoln road and Flatbusnh avenue. When the officer approached him he seemed half inclined to run, but thought better of it and quitely accompanied the bluecoat to the Grant street police station, where he described himself as John Blake, 22 year old. of 242 Water street. New York.

This forenoon he was arraigned before Justice Steers. The prisoner said he had come to Flatbush in search of work. work. I suppose," remarked the Judge, sarcastically, and continued: "Your appearance is against you. my friend.

There is a general housecleaning going on in this old town just now and I must send you out of the way. Two months in the penitentiary." DEATH OF A FOUNDLING. Xewtoiwn, L. September 5 Coroner Has lam was yesterday notified by Dr. Dow that Jesse Buhns, a 1 year old child, had died suddenly at the residence Mrs.

Mary Barrett in Maspeth. Mrs. Barrett beards foundlings, and the Burns child was one she received from the New York Foundling asy'. um, on the corner of Sixty eighth stree; and Third avenue. New York city.

When the coroner reached the Barrett house he was told that the chKd had been taken to the asyium in New York. An investigation shewed that Mrs. Barrett, for some reason or other, had wrapped the infant in a shawl and taken to the foundling asyium. To the auihorities in tine latter piace she said that had died while she was bringing to New York. The coroner says that he will have the body brought back to Queens county so that an inquest can be heid.

September 5 Jacob B. Smith died at Ms home on corner of Main street and Moneil avenue last night at 10:30 o'clock from a complication of disorders, chiefly kidney disease and heart rupture. The deceased was in the year of his age, and until taken sick enjoyed very good health. Several years ago he married for the second time and leaves a widow and five chll dren. He was probably one of the best known men in this village, having lived in hiis late home for over forty years.

He was a largo property owner and a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal church. The funeral will take p'iaco to morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock from the house, after which the remains will be interred In Oakwood cemetery. Hempstead, L. September 5 William Small died this morning after long and severe suffering from cancer. About a year ago a small sore appeared on the lip and a physician endeavored to burn it out.

The operation was unsuccessful and various medical men claim that it only increased tho trouble. Deceased was foreman of masons for the Garden City company and a member of the Henipstead Are department A widow and daughter survive aim i Western Suffolk Democrats ex Judge Eeid Favor AS A CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS, Republicans Say That Mr. Higbis Should Be Content "With Honors Conferred on Him and They May Nominate Joseph Nimmo, Jr. This Would Be a Square Contest Eetween Gold and Silver Sloat Fassett to Talk in Huntington. To night's Democratic Primaries The Complications in the Queens County District Attorneyship Contest.

(Special to the Eagle. Babylon, L. September 5 The Democracy ot western Suffolk country has practically united in pushing forward the boom former Judge John Robert Reid of Babylon for the congressional nomination of the First district. For the past ten years Judge Reid has been named in connection with the congressional nomination and has each time been urged by his friends to enter the race, but in previous years ho has steadily refused. His friends this year say they can secure for him a solid delegation from Suffolk county to the congressional convention and if this is done his nomination will be practically assured, as Suffolk county by courtesy is entitled to tho nomination this year.

Judge Reid is recognized as the father of the Suffolk county bar and is one of tho best known stump speakers in tho county. He held the office of county judge and surrogate one term and has since his retirement attended strictly to his law practice and refused to enter public life. On one or two occasions he was the nominee of his party for county officer but despite the fact that he polled a practically solid vote in Babylon town he was defeated owing to the large Republican majority in the county. The Republican congressional nomination, if it comes to Suffolk county, will probably be awarded Joseph Nemmo, of Huntington. Senator Richard Higble of Babylon has been spoken of as a candidate but little interest seems to be taken in his boom as the party leaders here are too busy working to secure the sheriff's nomination for Benjamin Brown Wood of Babylon.

Several of the leaders claim that Higble has already had his full share of the party plums, having served three teams in the assembly and one in the senate, and he should not jeopardize the party's interests there by resigning in order to accept the congressional nomination, even if it were offered him. Higbie and Nemmo are both pronounced gold men while Reid is a strong adherent of Bryan and the platform adopted at Chicago. Huntington, L. September 5 The Republican campaign will be actively opened in Huntington next Wednesday evening with a masa meeting and banner raising under the auspices of the McKinley and Hobart club. Ex Senator J.

Sloat Fassett will be the orator of the occasion, delivering an address in the opera house at 8 o'clock. Music will be furnished by the campaign banjo and glee club and the galleries are to be reserved for women and their escorts. Joseph Nimmo, president of the McKinley and Hobart club, will preside at the meeting. Jamaica, L. September 6 i The Democratic primaries are to be held to night and lively fights are on in all districts.

There is a big struggle on between the gold and silver forces. Both sides have tickets up and are working hard, the idea of the respective sides being to make the complexion of the state convention yellow or white. In the Twelfth district John H. Sutphin is on one of the tickets, but as it Is not definitely known whether he is for gold or silver the silver men have put up a ticket against him. C.

W. Waldron, candidate for the Republican nomination for superintendent of the poor, says that there is a strong sentiment in his favor all over the district. He had his lieutenants feeling the pulse of the representatives of the various sections, at the meeting on Thursday, and now feels confident of success. Although William J. Youngs wishes to be the next district attorney, the machine men have practically offered the nomination for that office to William Jones of Richmond Hill, provided Judge Ash, who lives in the same district, can be induced to withdraw from the race for the assembly nomination.

Judge Ash, however, says that it is too late as he is now bound up with other interests and cannot withdraw without injustice to his friends. The reason for the proposed change is that the machine men want to name the man for assembly, because they have received orders from Mr. Platt to that effect. In their proposed dicker with Jones and Ash the machine men have not taken into account George Wallace, who Is in the race for district attorney to stay and who may upset all their calculations. Glen Cove, L.
