p. C. M. Fitzgerald, of the brokerage firm Mt-Nulty Kitzgorald Company, 201 Mnn- taue street, lias a corner in urooKiyn mriiis. Mr.

FiizgeraM has Jut tied up the last Mrm which has been in tho market and he 3 "as uy iili I ritiiiL. me luuuvMiis win ncrgon farm, Ixmgmiro farm, E. H. Rydor farm J. S.

Ryder farm, George Slillwell farm. Simon B. Lott farm, Jurlen l.ott farm, 11. B. Clapp farm.

AltoBether, these farms comprise acres nild the average valuation is said to be about an nere. In addition, Mr. Fiuserald recently sold the Vauderveer farm of 221 acren to a tyndi-cate and he still holds that big tract for Ihe market on behalf of the owners. Mr. Fitzgerald has acquired these properties In anticipation of a largely increased boom in suburban real eBtate.

He believes that the present movement Is only In Its Infancy and that a lot will soon be worth the price which is now paid for an acre. Il is well known that certain parcels on Uockanay avenue, In East New York, have about reached this basis of valuation. Lots on RoeUawny uvone are now said to be worth $23,000 each, when Jli.000 could have an acre in tne same neiRnnoi- hood last November. Mr. FltzRiirald was the hiw.Pi' wnose enorts large ly brought about tho East New York boom.

Ho secured a number of the big farms and sold them to capitalists, who started in to develop them, and now there Is a small city within tho border of the Brooklyn Borough. Even to-lny apartments have been built In suburban parts on streets that have not yet been opened and the corn stalks of last year are grow ing up alongside of them. Such a sitiiatlou Is almost incredible to many per- sons, but It Is nevertheless true, and Mr, Fitzgerald believes that in a comparatively short time a similar condition of affairs will control the realty market in the section-s south and east ot Prospect Park. He has been buying upon the precedent established by previous operations, and he said that, except fop small parcels of suburban land, any one who wants to bay acreage now will have to deal with him. One of the eales which he has Just closed was the John Duryea farm of 02 acres, having a frontage of 1,200 feet on King's highway and eight blocks ot frontage on the Sea Beach branch of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit.

The purchaser was D. J. O'Conncll, who represents a Manhattan syndicate of in vestors. The tale price was 14,000 an acre, The purchasers will develop the farm and improve it shortly. Mr.

Fitzgerald reports that he has sold over J1.oO0.0d0 wonh of real esinto in the last two weeks. He expecls to sell $2,000,000 worth in the next two weeks. Negotiations are now on with out of town people from Washington, D. Chicago, Scranton, Pittsburg, Wllkesbarre. Boston and the Borough of Manhattan.

MALICIOUS MISCHIEF CHARGED. Boss Truckman Grafton's Doors and Windows, Close to Police Station House, Defaced by Vandals. John Grafton, the boss truckman, of 25 Carroll street, is pondering to-day on the possibilities of police protection. Hs owns the property running from 20 to 33 Carroll street. This Includes his stables and several tenements occupied by Italians.

He left his office at 0 o'clock Monday evening and some time between that hour and Tuesday morning some miscreant came along and -defaced the doors and sashes of the buildings. The damage was done with an ax ap parently, out one of the lower sushes or doors escaping Injury. He estimate his loss at $100. Mr. Grafton Is puzzled to know how this could have occured within two anw a nair blocks or the Hamilton avenue station noose witnout me police hearing about the eiinn.

uraiion reported tne matter at the station yesterday morning. BROTHER GONE MANY YEARS. Harold Herrick, of Lawrence, L. Asks to Have Long Missing Executor Removed. Harold Herrick, of Lawrence, L.

He pleaded not guilty and tho case was adjourned. ROBBED A SHIP'S CHART ROOM. Instruments Worth $240 Stolen and Pawned for $12 Accomplice Captured, Too. A drop of blood on the floor of tho chart- room on the steamship Catania, lying at Pier 36, Atlantic Basin, furnished the clew-by which Detective John Crowley, the sleuth of the Hamilton avenue police station, had Eeverno Holqulst and Otto Jergerson held for the grand Jury la the Butler street court to-day. Yesterday morning three scxtauts, of the value of $210; three marine glasses, costing $13 each, and a telescope worth $23 were stolen from tho chartrootn aboard the ship.

Those nautical Instrumente were missed by Chief Mate William Schotter, early In the afternoon. He and Capl3in Petersen got their heads together In earnest confab, and a few minutes later Schotter sped to the Hamilton avenue station to notify the police. Cpptain Formosa listened to the sea dog's story and then sent out for Crowley, who at the timo was discussing with Sergeant John Spreckley some of the later adventures of Sherlock Holmes, S3 recorded In serial stories of recent date. Crowley listened to Schotter's story and, swinging his topcoat over his arm, arose and asked the mate to accompany to tho whip. A careful examination was made of tho door to the chartroom, and questions were asked concerning tho manner in which It wan locked.

Schotter Informed the de tective that the door was left unlocked yes terday, to have the room cleaned. The stolen articles Had been kept on a small table. It was not lu the least dis turbed and furnished no clew to the robbery. Crowejr was about to leave the room, when he caught sight of a spot of blood on the newly washed floor. He called the mate's attention to the blood and asked who washed the floor.

The sailor who did the Job was found, but he knew nothing about the blood trots. Crowley examined the sailor's hands, finding them free Irom cuts or scratches. "Do you know ot any one aboard ship who has a wound on the hands?" asked Crowley. Schotter said that he did not, but the sailor ho had cleaned up the room and now stood near the officer said that Otto Jergerson, a sailor aboard ship, came to him Just after he had cleaned the room, bleeding from a wound in the hand received eonio days ago In handling cases of goods lhat were being loaded on the ship. The sailor asked Jergerson, so he said to Crowley, how he came by the hurt and was told that ne nad opened an old wound.

Just so, Just so, broke in tne mate; i think that we have the man. Jergerson was discharged from the vessel yesterday for Intoxication. He wasp paid off and no douht went to tho chartroom and look out tho misusing Instruments Crowley was well pleased with the dis covery and considered it worth while to fol low up. Inquiry among the sailors discov-1 ered the fact that the discharged sailor had zone to live aL a sailors lodeine house on I Furman street. The officer went dow to i the address and found Jergerson in the saloon attached to the house.

"Jergerson, we want you for stealing three sextants, three marine glasses and a telescope from the Catania. We have you right. Where did you take the things?" blurted out the detective. The sailor broke down, admitted his guilt and at the same time Implicated Tolqulst, who lives at 131 Imlay street. Crowley and Thomas Callanan, auolher plain clothes man attached tn the Hamilton avenue station, found Holqulst on the Atlantic Dock.

When Holquist was searched at ihe station house pawntickets for the sextants were found on his person. The tickets were Issued by a Manhattan pawnbroker and showed that the men had realized $12 on instruments that were valued at many times that amount. It was learned later that the men. for some reason feared to take the marine glasses nnd the telescope over the side ot the ship and had thrown them overboard. The men pleaded guilty before Magistrate Tighe on their arraignment to-day.

The Catania Is the property of the Sloman Line and makes regular trips to Pernam- buco, Brazil, carrying passengers and frcighl, ATHLETE WENCK TO WED.

Addiesi t- -U LaKle ituid brpr.h. And Preferably a Man for Umpire, Since He Can't Be Badly Hurt. Enthusiasm Kampant. With the opening of the season of porP-aiul the advent of tho baseball -ason con: the news that the fair athletic maidens attending Erasmus Hall High School in I'lat-bush will enter into the very sport of "popping out flies, "banning sizzliufi Tll. r.r i King, of Ihe High School, has oi'Kam'ril il" and will uumana It, but lie umpire, It Is has not yet been chosen.

There Is considerable iul- Hon not only among the Blud.nis of ilm High e'chool, but In and about Flutbusli. fef the residents of that suburb taUe a oul interest in the school, as to whether umpire will be a man or uot. Some iicojilc favor a man as the umpire for they the wnuh that decisions raise and feel that iill be isafer to have a mini this capacity. They argue that If a girl were lo occupy this position ivilh any degree of parlialMr toward ona sidu or tho other her safe departure Irom the held would be a mailer of reasonable doubt. On the other hand, ho argument Is continued, should a man prove unsatisfactory in decisions, if he is inoicd from tho field on a stretcher.

Ihe Kills of the basketball learns and ail the njv students athletically inclined received Professor King's suggestion for a baseball team with un enthusiastic cheer and each immediately voiced her inclination to "sign." Alter all signatures had been received a meeting wa called and the possibilities and probabilities of the sport and the season were gone over an! considered. This consideration included the form of dress to wear on ihe diamond and the colors lo be adopted. Some of the members were for adopting the regulation gymnasium costume of Jersey, bloomers and slippers, but others favored the divided skirl with whi'll the basketball seasons oi the school were inaugurated. As comfort, ease and freedom In chasing flies, stopping grounders and covering bases are requisites to proper and capable playing this question of divided skirts or bloomers was too momentous for hasty action and was passed over for future consideration.

The question of colors created a mors lengthy discission tor what auburn haired young woman would to be-lcek In pink and stand out on the "skinned diamond in the broiling hot sun, the cynosure of a thousand eyes, in such a combination. The feelings of the players must be considered, and tiiey Were, as far as could be. Pome girls thought baby pink would look stunning, while others favored baby blue, set off Willi while stockings and white slippers. Some favored cerise and others held out for the colors now In vogue soldier blue or green. It was finally decided lo let Ihe editor of the Eras-mian, the official school paper, decide the colors to be adapted, and to abide by his decision.

Of course, pot nil those that volunteered their names to take part in the baseball games can play at all times, for Mr. King has a lit of forty names; but of course the team will need rooters to encourage it in an up-hill game, nnd those that will not be en gaged physically In the contest'of the day will be in the grand stand shouting themselves hoarse. Dr. Is. Gunnison, principal of Erasmus Hall, was seen to-day.

and approves of the girls taking pan in all sports, Just as the students of Erasmus have done for the past, eight years. He said that there was no truih In the statement, however, that the girls will organize a baseball team to represent the high school In ploying games about the city with other teams representing various schools or otherwise. He said that the gaum will be plsyed with a rubber ball, and will be con'esicd only between the members of the school, on the campus or in ihe gymnasium of the school. Whenever the weather Is fair their games will he played on Ihe campus, and It is believed lhat the relatives and friends of the girls, beside the rest of the students of the school, will be admitted to witness Ihe games. It Is safe to sav lhat the editor of the Erasmian will decide on the school colors, buff and blue, for the baseball team, which, if made up In silk, will look stunning.
