WERE HELD FOR SHIPMENT. Police Assert Ammunition Was Kept for Germans In Storage Plant.

That is an excellent and substantial tribute to the generous hearts of Brooklyn. But there is still the call for money and for more money. Though Christmas is past and though the diagram below has very nearly cleored up. there am some cases yet to be put on the sunny side of the ledger. The relief asked by the Bu-eau of Charities for the cases it had investigated was not merely to provide one happy day for those families; it was to obtain the assistance that would enable them to weather the present winter.

For the families to whom this aid has not yet come the need Is as presing as ever. A glance at the diagram below will tell you which families these are. Are there none In your own section of the city? The hundred and twenty-eight dollars contributed today made it possible to "clean up" Cases Nos. 1, 20 and 44, and to give substantial assistance to Nos. 4, 12, 15, 19, 82, 36 and 89.

Money given for Family No. 46, whose need had already been supplied, was diverted to Family No. 39, also in the Greenpoint section: money for No. 46 was given to No. 36, and money for No.

HELP TO CLEAN A fire was discovered early today In a loft building at 200 West Houston' street, Manhattan, where are stored 8,000,000 rounds of ammunition, thousands of pistols, some Springfield rifles and some field pieces. According: to the police, the supplies were for the German Government and have been lying in the storeroom since the earlyt summer. The fire itself was a small affair and was put out before it had a chance to do any damage by two watchmen and two policemen, who were called In. It did not spread to the room! In which the ammunition was stored.J The police learned that the bulld-i ing is owned by John H.

Patrick, aj contractor, of 50 Edgecombe avenue.l the Bronx, and they are the authority for the statement that he was inl charge of having the war supplies shipped from New York to a Soutlr American port and from there to a neutral European port, where they would subsequently be sent into Germany. Patrick, say the police, wa to have sent the goods to the piers, but when he did so the English Bailors of the ships named balked at carrying ammunition it had to be stored until such time as it was possible to-get a ship that could carry them.

"YELLOW KID" DIES ON CHRISTMAS DAY Waif of the Streets Was Also Known as "King of Pie Eaters." FOUND ON AN ASH DUMP.

Was Idol of Cheap Variety Theaters, but Died Penniless In Charity Hospital. Edward Baker, said to be the original "Yellow Kid" of theatrical fame of twenty years ago, and known all over Brooklyn as the "Champion Pie Eater," died on Christmas, a charity patient in the Metropolitan Hospital. He was absolutely penniless, although at one time he made much money with his remarkable ability to consume and absorb pastry, which earned for him the title "King of the Pie Eaters." Baker, or "The Kid," as he was popularly known in the Eastern District, was a waif of the streets. Through his life, It was a dreary, cheerless existence, with the few years of brightness when his appearance in local theaters drew the applause of thousands. The height of his popularity came some fifteen years ago, when, in the since vanished Unique Theater on Grand street, he managed to consume eleven mince pies of the kind then selling at 20 cents each.

After this prodigious feat, he became the popular idol of a certain clement, which lasted until dyspepsia got the better of him. When his ability to digest the pies vanished, Baker disappeared from the footlights, and for some time eked out an existence by doing odd chores for actors and actresses. Some years ago he disappeared, but some few months ago he returned to his old haunts, and men who knew him in his prosperous days, saw to it that he had food and enough money to pay for his lodgings. Among them were former county Detective James Short, Manager Turner of the Grand Street Theater, which disappeared long ago and F. F.

Montenes. Tuberculosis completed the ravages of indigestion, and when, through friends, Baker was taken to the Kings County Hospital, it was quickly found that there was no hope for his life. He was transferred to the Metropolitan Hospital, where he died on Christmas. Whether the dead mans name is right or not, is unknown. He never knew his father or mother.

He was found by a policeman, when a boy of two or three years, in the ash dumps now covered by McCarren Park. From the first he was called riddle, and later Baker was added to The fe friends he had when he died hare taken a collection for him, and he will be decently burled tomorrow morning in Calvary Cemetery.

Which Has De ferred Action Since Early in the Month. CIVIC BODIES IMPATIENT. Delay Caused by Discussion of "Trench rian" Must Be Ended. Hearing Tomorrow. Residents of the' Eastern District are awaiting with interest the meeting of the Public Service Commission tomor row at noon, to see whether the Com mission will defer any longer its action on the bids for the construction of the Eastern District subway tunnel.

The commission has had the bids before it for consideration since early In Decem ber, but no action has been taken as yet because Commissioner William Hayward has been investigating: the feasibility of the "trench method" of tunnel construction, proposed by Engineer McBean. Intimations were given at the Publio Service Commission today that Bome definite action on the bids might be taken at the meeting: tomorrow. Soma of the other commissioners, who are not wholly in, sympathy with Mr. Hay-ward's action, may demand that some action be taken when the bids are called for consideration tomorrow and thus press the matter to a final issue. Commissioner Hayward Is still probing the McBean "trench method" and declines to discuss the matter at all.

As soon as he completes his investigation and forms an opinion as to the merits of the McBean plan, he will submit his conclusions to tho full commission for action. Representatives of the Eastern District civic organizations are expected to appear before the commission tomorrow and petition for a prompt determination of the question. They are exasperated at the delay because, they assert, the McBean plan has been Investigated and discarded as impractical before by the commission. The presence of these delegations and the desire of the other members of the commission to dispose of the matter, together may result in action being taken.

Dillingham's latest production, was the Christmas night offering on Broadway, and the big audience at the Globe Theater pronounced this new musical comedy a success, a verdict which subsequent audiences are likely to Indorse. With Gaby Deslys as the star, and numerous associates who have achieved fame In earlier shows, or in big-time vaudeville, there were specialty act galore and, at the close. Bandmaster Sousa, direct from the other Dillingham production at the Hippodrome, sprung the biggest surprise of the evening.

And the appearance of the band fitted in beautifully with the closing scene, which was supposed to take place in an all-night club with a wide central stairway as a decorative feature. Harry Pllcer, Gaby Deslys' dancing partner, had been doing some sensational stunts up and down that stairway, in a supposed state of intoxication, and the chorus had danced up and down also, when just as principals and all the rest were lined up in front for the final chorus, on came Sousa with his players, and the curtain was rung down to a volley of applause for the regular performance and the impromptu finale. Gaby Deslys naturally dominates many of the scenes, but the lesser lights, particularly those of the masculine persuasion, came in for their share of honors for their clever work, and the charming chorus girls looking as if they Just stepped from some posters or magazine covers, sang as well as they looked and they were a stunning group. Gabv. in characteristic headdresses some "fearful and wonderful" and all astonishingly high, changed her costumes at every opportunity, and her raiment was enough to make the most Christian-like feminine observer even on Christmas night green with jealousy.

She danced beautifully, and ner French accent added a piquant touch to her songs, particularly in the scene in which she appeared with a group of bathing girls and warbled about "taking oft a 1-e-e-t-l-e- bit until they announced that they could not take off any more. And the plot? Well, one had to stop, look and listen to discover it. The thin little story hinged upon the desertion of a temperamental prima donna, just at the moment that a musical comedy was ready for production, and a search for her successor. This quest was responsible for the most effective act in the play, for It took place at Honolulu, and the four scenes rivaled each other in attractiveness. A realistic touch was introduced by the playing of a Hawaiian band, who sang some of the weird, haunting melodies of their islands, and played their accompaniments on native instruments.

In this scene Blossom Seeley appeared as a Hula-Hula girl and made a hit. One of the beBt liked numbers was "Ragtime Melodrama," in which the entire company took part. Gaby Deslys impersonated the persecuted chee-lld, and Frank Lalor the father, who after having been killed, comes to life and joins in the dancing to a syncopated measure at the close of the scene. Harry Fox won special recognition for his singing of "I Love a Piano," half a dozen nimble-fingered young men playing the accompaniment on a huge piano. Joseph Santley sang several solos, especially pleasing the audience with "When I Get Back to the U.

S. the scene being the deck of an ocean liner. James Doyle and Harland Dixon did some exceedingly clever dancing in both white and blackface, and Tempest and Sunshine gave each other lessons in love Miss Tempest being the Romeo of the occasion. The music and lyrics were by Irving Berlin, who was called out to make a speech, and briefly expressed his appreciation and extended the greetings of the season. The settings of the nine scenes were delightful, the costumes exquisite in their color, harmony and grace, and the music, some of it in rag-time measure, catchy and pleasing.

The title of the comedy was explained in a sextet, in which a rap was given to a local railroad which has been conducting a campaign of publicity with the warning to motorists and pedestrians "Stop, Look, Listen." FIRST MATIXKE DANCE. Select Social Clulb Makes Debut at the Imperial.

The woman and the boy were badly bruised, but declined the services of an ambulance surgeon. No arrest was made. Perhaps It Was That That Causod the Wild Revil of Old Boreas. BROOKLYN HIT HAItl) HY UAI.K Three Prison, Ili-rc Dlo as Result, of Storm luu Injured Property Dumuxr Heavy. Brooklyn emerged today with little more than a thin ice blanket as the visible reminder of the freak storm which swept it yesterday, leaving death und disaster in its train, although some roofless buildings, many broken windows and a number of up rooted trees anu service poles testified in some degree to the furious wind that shook the entire city.

With the warm sun and genial atmosphere that flooded the borough this morning, it seemed impossible to most people to realize that twenty-four hours earlier there had been snow, rain, sleet, hail, thunder and lightning, and a wild gale that, for hours, held to an approximate ninety-mile velocity. Home people who were awake during the thunder storm insisted that it was pink lightning, too, that made the storm all the more freakish. Another of the pranks singled out Avenue near Coney Island avenue, where the gale piled the less than three three inches of snow into drifts nearly seven feet deep. Three of Nine Deaths Duo to Storm Occurred in Brooklyn. Nine lives were taken by the storm in and around New York, three of them in Brooklyn.

John Devlin, 67 years old, of 865 Pearl street, died in the Adams street court of exposure after having been arrested for intoxication; Mrs. Anna Horowitz. 65, of 235 Seigel street, was found dead of exposure in McKibbin street, and Frederick Maas, 63, a druggist, faced the gale to sweep the sidewalk of snow in front of his store only to die of Over-exertion in the store at 382 Glen-more avenue. On Long Island, Anthony Krusinskl, 38, of New Hyde Park, blinded by the gale-driven snow, collided with an automobile while riding a bicycle and received injuries that caused his death. A number of persons were injured In Brooklyn by accidents due to the storm.

Isadora Szarlck of 245 South Third street was Btruek on the head by a falling cornice at 23S South Third street. Olga Bree of 59 Hinsdale avenue was badly bruised at Atlantic and Snediker avenues when the gale blew her from the platform to the tracks while she was waiting for a train. Anna Noznar of 1051 Manhattan avenue was severely shocked by a fallen electric light wire at Manhattan avenue and teagle street. A flugpole was blown from the roof of 1 7 70 Pitkin avenue as Morris Moser of 275 Kast Second treet, Manhattan, was passing, and It crashed against his chest, lacerating and bruising him. Church Inroofeil While Service Was in Progress.

Accidents in which no one was ln-juieii included the lifting of the roof from the German Lutheran Church, at irtpnwnnrf Vihite nvAnned while the oonct egation was at worship. In Uravsend Bay the two-masted schooner Armedia was blown from her anchorage and hurled against the rimer Park pier, almost cutting the pier in two. Plate glass windows were blown in at 140 and 269 Troy avenue, and 205 Washington street and on Kings Highway, between the Brighton Beach road and Coney Island avenue, the windows of every one of the four saloons there were shattered. On one block on Fourteenth street seven poplar trees wore blown down. A few blocks away, on Coney Island avenue, seven telephone poles fell before the gale, near Seeley street.

At 2107 Mermaid avenue, Coney Island, a building in course of construction was blown down. At Hudson avenue and Fulton street the wind brought down an iron motion picture screen. At Marion and Fulton streets and Trout-ninn street and Knickerbocker avenue, fences were blown down, nnd a billboard was torn from the roof of l.86 Fulton street. At 15 Clark street a fire department pole was sent hurtling against the building. Fences Blown Down by Gale.

Much damage was caused to property in the Borough Park section. An advertising fence that surrounds a vacant lot on Sixteenth avenue, between Fortieth and Forty-first streets, was blown from its supports and lay scattered over the sidewalk. Another fence at the corner of Sixteenth and Gravesend avenues, also suffered from the storm. The high wind blew the loosened boards over part of tho trolley tracks and it took some time to remove them. Peven Barges Sunk Xo Lives Lost.

The Erie Railroad was one of the chief losers in the high wind that swept the waterfrjnt. Seven barges belonging to that company sank at their piers, or a little distance out, after the wind had tugged at tho cables holding the boats until they were broken. Three barges, unloaded, went down at the foot of Sixty-fifth street. One sank at the foot of Forty-second street, another at the foot of Forty-first street, one more at Thirty-ninth street and the lust at Thirty-first street. Most of the barges were unloaded, although some of them had a little cargo on board.

There was no loss of life. Child at Piny In Snow Falls on Bottle, tut About Face. While the imow storm brought hardships a-plenty to property owners throughout the city, there were numberless children who reveled in the great drifts, and the opportunity to try out their new sleds. One of these, little Charles Hansen of 350 Fifty-first street, took his sled out into the vacant lot at Third avenue and Sixty-eighth street, where in company with a crowd of other children he slid down the hills formed by piles of dirt. Just ns he was taking one more slide, however, the little fellow fell off his sled and dropped on to a broken milk bottle.

Fortunately he received nothing more serious than a few minor cuts on his face, and after Or. Clark of the Norwegian Hospital hud attended him, he was taken home. Small Craft Ashore at Gravesend Bay. The storm was felt worse, perhaps, In Gravesend Bay than in nny other of the bays surrounding New York Bay. At L'lmer Park the schooner Andreneda.

owned by Jeremiah Buker. broke loose from her moorings and was cast upon the shore. At the sume place the fishing sloop Ann Godfrey wns beached because of a hole stove In her side bv a flouting pile. The Hurdette. another fishing sloop, was also beached by th0 hiK, winds and seas.

Slight damage resulted to ull of the vessels, with no injuries to tho crews. Residents of Sea Gate and lower! t'oupy Island are happy that no damage came to their property. The oniv effect of the storm was an unusually! low tide at Coney Island, and the immense stretch of beach from Manhattan Beach to Sea Gate was a in ecu for the "beach who, with hovels, sieves and luck ns their tools, uk thruuth tho Etuuls for treasures lost by bathers during the recent season. Wires Down In New Fngland. New Haven, December 27 Almost complete paralysis of wire traffic, which resulted from Sunday's blizzard, was only partly repaired today and it will be several days before the service is again restored to normal.

The Southern New England Telephone Company found it necessary today to limit all calls in the State to five minutes and long distance calls to three minutes owing to the lack of circuits. All long distance calls were subject to from half an hour to an hour's delay. The telephone lines between Water-bury and Troy, N. and between Boston and New York, were put out of business by the gale. The New Haven road reported that signal service on the Hartford line was restored early todav and trains were running.

From all parts of the State comes news today of buildings wrecked or damaged, trees and poles blown down, and It is roughly estimated that worth of damage was done by the storm. Only one death was reported, that of a lineman. Washington, December 27 Serious damage to the shipping around New York resulted from the heavy storm which swept the vicinity of that port last night, according to coast guard headquarters. A telegram from the Sandy Hook coast guard station received here today said: "Fifteen barges ashore, twenty-five people saved, one drowned." OBITUARY Patrick Callahan.
