In the meantime MeCarthy had swung open the gate and was standing in an attitude that enabled him to jump it necessary.

Ag the car and horse came together McCarthy gave a leap the bridle. forward There and 611e- was grabbing only a space of two feet between the horse and the car, but by clinging des perately to the animal the policeman cleared the car, which the motorman soon brought to a full stop. Then began a fight between policeman and horse for the mastery. Several times the giant tried to clinch the horse's nostril, but the runaway avoided him. McCarthy saw the form of the driver, Iving as he had fallen from his seat.

with his legg projecting over the seat. while he was on the front of the car and he knew that in stopping the horse meanl perhaps the saving of life. So he contInned to hold on despite the mighty etforts of the animal to shake him off. Motormen along the line stopped their cars and pedestrians On the gidewalk stood stilt in horror as they saw the desperate struggle of the policeman. Onc0 they saw the horse dash into the gutter and pull the wagon on the sidewalk.

barely missing a telegraph pole, but McCarthy swerved the horse's nead aud he went back to the street. Finally, when the animal had covered two city blocks in one of the busiest districts in the city for lumber traffic, he succeeded through sheer strength--all that was left of him--in pinning the nostrils of the animal. The horse tried to Aing his foe aside, but in vain, and exbausted fell to the. street. McCarthy then held the horse's head to the aidewalk.

Heroic measures were resorted to by Dr. Hurley, the ambulance surgeon attached to the Williamsburg Hospital last evening. in order to save the life of Ethel Dixon, three years old, whose parents live at 878 Driggs avenue. The surgeon in order to save the child, who was strangling with al piece cinder in her throat, was compelled to make a hasty operation. that of tracheotomy, consisting of making an incision in the windpipe of the child through which she breathed until the hospital was reached.

How the child secured the cinder is known. She was playing about the dining room while the mother was busy. Ira. Dixon first noted something wrong when the child made a peculiar noise and rolled over on her back. Then she grew black in the face and writhed in a violent spasm.

A messenger ran to the home of Dr. Laura Rigelmann, at Lee aventie and Wilson atreet, who was at home and hastily responded. When she reached the home of the Dixons the child was Oil the verge of suffocation. She was unable to remove the obstruction, which owing to its rough edges stuck fast in child's throat, completely shutting off the passage of air to the lungs. Without losing any precious time trying to dislodge the obstruction Dr.

Rigelmann communicated with the Williamsburg Hospital and asked that the ambulance be rushed to the Dixon home, explaining the elreumstances in few words. The ambulance, with Dr. Hurley, was sent at a mad gallop and when the surgeon reached the side of the child she WaS purple in the face and close to death by suffocation. Without the slightest hesitation Dr. Hurley seized his scalpel and with a quick slash laid bare the windpipe and with another delicate cut made a proper incision in the windpipe itself, 1mmediately relieving the child.

The child was bundled into the ambulance and driven to the hospital, where the necessary attention was given, until the arrival of Professor Lefferts A. MacClelland, nose and throat specialist attached to the hospital. He finished the delicate operation of removing the obstruction, after first Inserting the tube, making the breathing of the child n.ore easy. After completing his operation Professor MacClelland highly complimented Dr. Hurley, who was, he said, deserving of every praise, 0.3 it WAS 84 rare thing for 3 surgeon to make an operation of this delicate character under such circumstances.

Dr. Hurley explained 10 An Eagle reporter that haste was required in order to eave the life of the child, as she would have died before the hospital could have been reached and he took the desperate expedient of making it at once. The child at a late hour was described 39 doing well' and would undoubtedly re- cover. Toe Amputated in Street. Edward Walker, 9 years old, of 198 McDougal street, was playing about a new Are hydrant at Hopkinson avenue and McDougal street at 6 o'clock last evening when a connection fell on his foot.

He amputated one of the childs toes in the then took him to his parents' SAYS CITY HAS NO TITLE. Trouble Looked For at Flushing When Municipality Tries to Take Over House of Hose No. 4.

There is every indication that there will be a serious legal complication at the headquarters of Young America Hose Company No. 4, in Washington street, Flushing, next Tuesday, when the city fire officials will attempt to take possession of the premises. On that date the paid fire department will be installed in Flushing, and the volunteers were yesterday served with notice to vacate the premises at once. although the property in question is claimed by Henry Boerum and Mre. Walter Holmes, both well known residents of Flushing.

It seems that the property on which the fire house is located was given to Young America Hose Company by the late Jacob Boerum in the early 50s, and in the deed of conveyance it was stated that when Young America Hose Company lost its identity as a volunteer fire company the property was to revert to his grandchildren, Henry Boerum and Mrs. Walter Holmes. Henry Boerum said last night that the city had no title to the property, 88 it belongs to him and his sister. He said that he has engaged an attorney, who will look after their interests. The fire offic'els have planned to convert the fire house into a supply house.

Battalion Chief William C. Clark has been assigned as battalion chief of the new paid department in Flushing. DEBT LIMIT HEARINGS Will Not Be Concluded December 1. Referee's Report Expected About February 1. The hearings on the debt limit before General Tracy as referee will not 1 be concluded on December 1.

A statement was made to that effect at the conclusion of the last hearing last week. The parties who are seeking to enjoin the city from incurring further debt will close their case at the hearing on December 1. It has been agreed that an adjournment of a week will be then taken to enable the Corporation Counsel to prepare and present the city's side of the case. It hag been intimated by the Corporation Counsel that he can close his case in the course of two or three hearings. The case will be then given to General! Tracy for his report and decision.

As these must follow an examination. not only of the testimony received at the various hearings, but also of voluminous exhibits and extended briefs, it is not probable that there will be any report from the referee before February 1, the date tentatively set by himself. BOY KILLED BY FALL. Harry Lenier, a schoolboy, living with his parents at 90 Attorney street, Manhattan, went to the roof of the tenement house at that address yesterday afternoon and amused himself by across an airshaft four feet In width which admits light and alr to some of the inner rooms of the building. He slipped and fell eight stories to A little courtyard in the basement of the building, fracturing his skull.

Although neighbors heard him scream and ran at once to the spot, he was dead when they arrived. A SANTA CLAUS STEAMER HAD TILT WITH NEPTUNE The New Brisgavia, Pounded by Wind and Wave, Was About a Week Overdue. FULL OF FINE GERMAN TOYS. Dolls and Doll Houses and Furniture for the Girls; Guns and Soldier Togs for the Boys' Christmas. One of the worst stories ever brought into port was that which came in yesterday on the new Han burg- American Line steamship Brisgavla, which ended her maiden sea voyage when she tied up to her pier in Hoboken yesterday atternoon.

The new liner, which is of the type the company's steamship Bosnia, carrying only steerage passengers and with huge freight capacity, left Hamburg op November 11 and should have a reached here in about ten days, so that she was nearly 8 week overdue when she came up the bay yesterday afternoon. The bad weather commenced as soon as the Brisgavia had passed out of the North Sea and had entered the English Channel. That was on November 13, and Captain Russ, who does not believe in the combination of Friday and the 13th as a matter of ill gritted his teeth and set the nose of his big ton liner right into the gale that blew through the channel. Great seas and terrific wind squalls drove the Brisgavia backwards instead of allowing her great engines to run her head through the gale. Half the time the screw of the liner was out of water and Captain Russ remained on the bridge while his vessel dug her nose into the sea, sending tons of water across her forward deck and almost burying the bridge under a watery avalanche.

1t was perilous work to move about the deck for any of the officers and crew for four days following the 13th of the month. During those four days Captain Russ slept hardly at all. Carrying no passengers on her maiden voyage, although heavily laden with freight, the Brisgavia's officers had that one trouble less to contend with. They had all they could do to take care of themselves let alone looking after a lot of frightened steerage passengers. On November 17 the Brisgavia was in midocean practically and her decks showed the ravages of the seas that had tumbled over her almost continuously for ninetysix hours.

Had anything happened to the new steamship Santa Claus would have had to cut many thousands of homes off his Christmas list, or, at least, would have had to reduce his presents to thousands of his little friends. The Brisgavia proved yesterday to be pre-eminently a Christmas ship. From her upper deck hatches to the keel and from the port to the starboard side the huge vessel was crammed full of German Christmas toys. There is a German toy of any sort that has not a representation in the vessel's manifest. Ten thousand cascs of German dolls, blondes and brunettes; miniature stores, soldiers and other things formed a part of the Brisgavia's cargo.

There were also animals and mechanical toys, ships and cradles. doll houses and doll furniture. There were miniature dressing tables, chairs, rockers, brass beds and things for the little girls, and the boys had guns and sabres and military accoutrements in the Brisgavia's hold. To-day being Sunday, Santa Claus is taking a rest at his country place somewhere in Long Island, but bright and early to -morrow morning he and his will get very busy on the Brisgnomes gavia's cargo, and before several days have passed Santa Claus will have sent the toys from the toymakers of Nuremberg to all parts of the United States. Much of it is consigned to Brooklyn and points on Long Island, so the boys and girls over here need not be afraid that they will be overlooked.

MR. BJERRUM JUBILANT. Jamaica Bay Boulevard Seems Likely to Be Built According to His Plans. President Ernest Bierrum of the Ozone Board of Trade, who fostered the Park scheme for the construction of a bouleJamaica Bay, paralleling the vard across trestle of Island Railroad, thus bringing the Rockaways and the Fourth Ward of Queens more closely together, is jubilant because the plans are finished and will soon be presented to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment. The big meeting at Jamaica last year decided that the boulevard should follow the line of the Rockaway Beach Division of the Long Island Railroad from Forest Park to the Beach.

The just completed plans showed the boulevard along the line Woodhaven avenue. President Gresser promised the Ozone Park Board of Trade recently that he would order the plans changed back to follow the line of the railroad, and he says he has "made good."
