Burial at Greenfield Cemetery. Hempstead, L. at 4:30 P.M. FREEPORT PEOPLE LOOK OVER STOLEN GOODS Sheriff Gildersleeve Heads Party of Identification at Headquarters. THREE SUSPECTS CONFESS.

A Rug Valued at $1,000 Among the Loot--Complete Burglar's Outfit Found at Freeport. Sheriff Gildersleeve of Nassau County. with more than a dozen residents of Freeport and vicinity, went to police beadquarters in Mulberry to-day 'to try to identify as the residents' property some of the loot recovered by the sheriff and Central Office men yesterday from a house at 447 East One Hundred and Twenty-third street, Manhattan. It is believed, from the confessions ohtained by Sheriff Gildersleeve from three suspects arrested on Monday, that the fine tapestries, rugs, pictures, silverware and jewelry found in the house are part of the proceeds of the burglaries by men in automobiles who have terrorized Freeport and its vicinity of late. One of the rugs was bearskin, with la the head mounted, which is valued at $1,000.

Lieutenants Hughes, Doolady and Hyams, who assisted Sheriff Gildersleeve in the raid, say that the property recovered is worth at least $8.000. The Freeport people went over the stuff with an idea of claiming their property. Identified Their Property. of Baldwins the same amount. Cedarhurst Home Robbed.

As a result of their inspection the Long Island residents who accompanied Sheriff Gildersleeve to the house were able to identify property worth nearly $3,000. Among the identifications made were those by -Matthew Murray and his son, William, whose residence at Freeport was burglarized on December 30 and property to the value of $1,500 was taken. Mr. Murray and his son picked out loot worth $800 as belonging to them. Philander R.

Jenings, an iron broker of Manhattan, with a big country estate at Merrick, was robbed some months ago of $2,000 worth of property. In the stuff recovered from the East One Hundred and Twenty-third street house he recognized property worth $1,000 as having been taken the burglars from his house. William J. K. Kenny of Merrick was able also to identify a number of articles as about half in value of his loss to the burglars of property valued at $2,000.

Then the sheriff gave out beside these lists of property that it is known had been taken from residents of Freeport and the neighboring towns. He said the amounts were an underestimation, if anything: William H. Nostrand of Springfield, reported that on April 14 last, his home had been robbed of oil paintings valued at $1,800, and that jewelry worth fully $500 had been taken by the burglars in addition. He awakened to heam them in the house, he said, frightened them away, but they returned before morning. Some losses reported were these by J.

H. Schullman of Baldwins, who reported the loss of property to the amount of $500; P. H. Morrison of Lynbrook, who had property worth $1,500 taken last December; James Hart of Freeport, who lost property valued at $1,000 and George Roeckels, who is postmaster and proprietor of the general store at Rosedale, whose safe was robbed of stamps and money in total $1,000, last March. William Varity of Merrick, lost in March, $200 to the burglars; Howard Worthman of Merrick the same amount in the same month, and d.

Forest D. Smith The home of James Hopkins of Cedarhurst, was entered twice in November last and in uJne, a short time ago. and on each occasion property worth $2,000 was taken. George W. Vales of Cedarhurst, reported robbers in the same months, and each time lost $1,000 Pierre M.

Brown of Hempstead, on in May of this year, Edward Abrahams April 17 last, suffered a loss of a $1,000, and of Hewletts, in May had property worth $500 taken. H. H. Cammann, comptroller of Trinity church corporation, who has a large country place at Merrick. was burglarized to the 'extent of $1,500, and Peter Muller, hotelkeeper in the same village, lost property in amount of $5,000.

Sheriff Gildersleeve said at headquarters that in one of the trunks seized at Freeport there is jewelry worth at least $5,000. He says in addition that he has more than twenty pawn tickets for other valuable stuff. The Sheriff says he is confident that chloroform was used by the burglars. At the foot of a tree, he adds, near Freeport, where he had reason to believe some articles might be buried, two bottles were dug up. One purported to contain horse liniment and the other some liquid which might be chloroform.

The Sheriff said that he got his first clue in the matter from the station agent, who informed him that with undue frequency, sometimes two or three times a week, trunks were being, shipped from Freeport to one address. The circumstance was unusual enough to attract attention. The investigation is to be carried further, the sheriff said, and he hopes to have others of the losers come to headquarters to attempt to identify the remaining property held there. Another Arrest at Freeport. (Special to the Eagle.) Freeport, L.

June 21-Another arrest was made yesterday afternoon in the round-up of burglars who are supposed to have operated with the gang who made their headquarters at Schang's saloon, and stored the booty taken from different places there. Mamie Burns, a young woman who had been stopping at the saloon, was the person taken into custody and held as a witness. She came from New York to get her clothing, which she said had been left at Schang's, and was surprised when she arrived there to find that Augustus Von Fahrig, the manager; Mrs. Schang. Morris Beck and Joseph Kelly had been arrested.

The Burns woman claims to De the wife of William Burns, who escaped from the police Wednesday afternoon when Von Fahrig and others were taken into custody. Further identification of property stored in the Schang place was made yesterday, and the police are now convinced that the gang have committed all the burglarles reported along the South Side between the Greater New York and Suffolk County line within the past year and a half. It is believed that the Tocal parties had allies in New York who came Gut nights in an automobile; were tipped off as to what place would be "ripe" for plunder; the haul made, and the goods brought to the Schang place on the Merriek road. The police have found a complete burglars' outfit, including chloroform, a dark lantern, loaded revolver, which the gang had. The chloroform was found in the swamp into which Von Fahrig made his way Wednesday after shooting at the IN MEMORIAM.

KELLY -There will be an anniversary requiem mass for Mrs. ELIZABETH A. KELLY at St. Joseph's Church, on Saturday morning. June 22, at 9 o'clock.

OFTJEN--In loving remembrance of a wife and devoted mother, who departed this life on June 20, 1906. Gone but not forgotten. WILLIAMSON- -In loving memory of my dear husband. ALFRED E. WILLIAMSON, a loving father, son and brother, who died June 21, 1906.

Gone, but not forgotten police, but where he became caught up in briars and was obliged to surrender. Schang Makes Full Confession. Mineola, N. June 21-Christopher Schang, who was an inmate of the Schang Hotel at Freeport, which was raided Wednesday night by Sheriff Gildersleeve, who arrested what is believed to be the leaders of a gang of burglars who have operated so successfully in Nassau County the last six months, was closeted with Assistant District Attorney Bennett and Detectives Hults and Sweet for two hours this morning, and gave valuable information. was in jail when raid was having been indicted on two schang, counts for assaulting two men in the hotel on June 1.

Schang made a full and complete confession after an hour's argument with the two. detectives. Assistant District Attorney Bennett, for various reasons, preferred not to make the full statement public. It was stated, however, that Schang confessed that all the burglaries were committeed by himself, Von Fahrig and Maurice Burke. He described how the trio operated, and told of places robbed of which the District Attorney'S office had received no information.

Schang. said that after getting into a house occupied, the gang would spray ether and chloroform in the sleeping rooms, thus making themselves secure against detection. All the loot was taken to Freeport, later packed in trunks, and shipped to the house in New York. Smaller articles of great were carried to the city and immediately pawned. He could give no information as to the fences in the city, having nothing to do with the disposition of the stolen goods.

Schang was in conference with the detectives several hours, and was taken back to his cell shortly after 12 o'clock. Just how he was Induced to confess is not given out, but it is supposed he was promised some lentency. PUGILIST KNOCKED OUT. Lenny Taken From the Ring to Belle. vue Hospital--Club Raided.

After what the police declare was a hard fought four -round bout, after which one of the boxers had to be hurried to Bellevue Hospital, the police of the West Thirtieth Street Station, Manhattan, late last night raided the Long Acre Athletic Club, arresting four men besides the man who bad been taken to Bellevue. The police have several times raided the Long Acre Club in the past, but have not bothered it lately because the club had won out in the courts. The raid would not have taken place last night, Captain McCluskey of the "Tenderloin" station said, had it not been for the report that one of the fighters had been seriously injured. In the fourth round Edward Smith and Gustave Lenny began to "mix it up" lively, the police a say. There was some hard and swift fighting, according to the detectives who were in the audience.

The man Lenny was severely punished and had to be helped from the ring to his dressing room. Word reached Captain McCluskey that Lenny was not coming around well after the fight. A few minutes later he heard that the boxer Lenny had been hurried to Bellevue Hospital in a closed carriage. The captain waited just long enough to learn that the report was true and then, with Detectives Conlin, Dunstan and Walsh, hurried to the club. The names and addresses of a number of men in the place who had witnessed the fight were taken and then the two seconds, the referee and Smith were arrested.

Smith gave his age as twenty years and his address as 42 West Eightieth street. He said he was a fighter. Lenny's address was given as Andrew Square, South Boston. After the prisoners had been locked up at the "Tenderloin" station, Detectives Conlin and Dunstan hurried to Bellevue Hospital. They found that Lenny had been admitted to the hospital and taken to Ward 14, of the Men's Surgical Division.

The detective charged him with violating Section 458 and he was transferred from that ward to the prison ward. Dr. Hooker, who admitted the fighter to Bellevue, said that he was in serious condition and might die. Lenny, Dr. Hooker says, was suffering from multiple contusions of the body and head.

He was unconscious for hours after being admitted to the hospital, but regained his senses later. GUESTS OF PRESIDENT. First Visitors of Summer Entertained at Sagamore Hill-President Acts on Pardon Cases. (Special to the Eagle.) Oyster Bay, L. June 21-President Roosevelt's first luncheon guests.

of the Sagamore Hill season were entertained to-day. They were Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner of corporations; Alfred W. Cooley, assistant attorney general; Judge H. G. Ward, recently appointed circuit judge in New York, and Robert Bridges, one of the President's publishers.

Thomas, Southern District of California, denied; W. W. Lea, Middle District of Tennessee, commuted to expire immediately.

Frank Philbrick, a Cheyenne Indian, who journeyed all the way from North Dakota yesterday to see the President, had his labor for his pains, for he was not permitted to see Mr. Roosevelt. The trouble with Philbrick was he would not tell the exact nature of his business, but intimated that it had to do with Indian affairs. He was referred to Indian Commissioner Leupp at Washington. Philbrick said that he used to work for President Roosevelt his ranch.

He had known the President well in his ranching days, he said, and had not thought that a formal application for permission to visit would be necessary.

Great excitement was caused 1 in the Italian quarter of South Brooklyn last night about 7:30 o'clock when three shots were fired on Twentieth street, between Third and Fourth avenues.

Cone gave chase and caught him. He gave his name 18 Domonze Guiseppi, 35 years old, of 147 Twentieth street. No gun was lound in his possession.

SOME PAID SECOND FARE TO RIDE TWO BLOCKS Police Will Endeavor to Prevent Repetition cf Ocean Av. Troubles To-day.

BIG BLOCK AT SHEEPSHEAD. Racing Element Had a Row With B. R. T. Specials-Cabmen Benefited.

Inspector Harkins, in charge of the Fifteenth Inspection District, had his hands full yesterday afternoon handling the mass of people who desired to see the Suburban and who later seemed anxious to get home as fast as cars could carry them. The employes on the B. R. T. lines had a hard time of it, too, and it turned out later that the rule of the railroad company was to blame.

The railroad company operated a number of extra cars from Sea Gate to the race track entrance, or rather a point just south of it. The regular trolley line is operated from Sea Gate to the corner of Ocean and Emmons avenues: That corner is the terminus of the Ocean avenue line, running from that point to Broadway ferry, in the Eastern District. The fare from Sea Gate to Ocean and Emmons avenues is 5 cents, and that was all that was demanded and charged on the regular cars. The extra cars that ran two long blocks further, in order to get the people to the race track. were considered a double-fare line, and the conductors demanded an extra fare.

Something that appeared very much like a riot followed. Many refused to pay. The police were notified and Inspector Harkins and a platoon were soon on the job. All the trouble happened after the races. The crowd that boarded the cars for Sea Gate outside the track were asked to pay an extra fare, but most of them refused to do so, The police saw at once that the entire avenue would be blocked if the crowd was not dispersed, and they soon arranged matters so that the people were carried to Coney Island without paying the extra nickel.

Regular patrons of the road declared the extra fare is an outrage, as the trip from the regular terminal is only two blocks in length. The railroad officials will be asked to settle the matter right away, it was said. When Special Policeman Tighe was asked what caused the trouble he declared there was no trouble to speak of. When he saw there were signs of an argument, he said, he simply summoned the division superintendent and the people were held back. Several different storles were told to-day as to the treatment passengers received at the hands of the railroad company.

Charles E. Morris, who resides in Gravesend Beach and was on his way to Sheepshead Bay on business, said the cars were blocked from Ocean parkway to Sheepshead Bay and that the conductor on the train demanded an extra nickel from the Mr. Moris said he paid it because he was passengers. in a hurry, but there were many others who refused to do so and were not put of the cars either. Those who had business at the race track, however, paid under protest and then engaged a carriage to get them to the track.

The cabmen had a field day of it. Many of them stationed themselves along the line of the cars and shouted to the conductors to put the kickers off. The police are going to be on hand today in large numbers and they will keep the cars moving, too. THE HARBOR SOLD. Fine Babylon Place of J.

S. Schenck Remsen Bought by L. R. Hyde of Brooklyn. (Special to the Eagle.) Babylon, L.

June 21-L. R. Hyde of 298 New York avenue, Brooklyn, has purchased through the agency of Jeremiah Robbins the fine country place J. S. Schenck Remsen, known as The Harbor, on the shore of West creek, near the summer home of Theophlius Lockett and Jacob M.

MR. HOTCHKISS AT LIBERTY. Citizen Who Wouldn't Go to Hoffman Island Makes Charges of Graft. Edward Hotchkiss, the intermediate passenger who defied the quarantine authorities in refusing to go ashore at Hoffman Island when ordered, was released from custody at 10 o'clock to-day, having been practically under arrest aboard the Havana, Ward liner, since her arrival here Wednesday. Hotchkiss, who is a graduate of Oberlin College, and numbers among his friends Paul D.

Cravath, E. H. Harriman's lawyer, was very bitter in his denunciation of the treatment he had received. He declared his intention of remaining in New York until he had tested the right of the authorities to act with such arbitrariness. "To begin with, I was never examined as to temperature or physical condition.

The first class passengers were allowed to go, and when it was said that it was because they were responsible I offered a thousand dollars security, and my friend McCormick added another thousand to assure the officials that I would report when ordered.

(Special to the Eagle.) White Plains, N. June 21--It is now the general belief that the murder of Julius T. Rosenheimer, one of the wealthlest residents of Pelham, on Wednesday night, was committed by the same robbers that have lately been robbing country houses along the Northern shore of Long Island Sound, and who are known yeggmen, and that they intended to kill Mrs. Rosenheimer, who was walking with her husband time, and then rob the mansion, were frightened south away by her screams. Detectives employed by Sheriff Lane started off on a new scent to They are looking for a mysterious sloop which' was seen off 'Hunters Island, near Pelham Manor, on the night of the murder, and on which it is thought the slayers, after robbing Mr.

Rosenheimer of a few dollars and his gold watch, escaped. It was only last week that the big country home of a Rye millionaire was looted of $2,500 worth of silverware and on that night a sloop was seen anchored in the sound off Rye. The police all along the north shore of the sound have received instructions to look for this strange craft and when sighted to run it down. The Board of Supervisors will meet on Monday and it is understood a reward of $2,000 will be offered for the arrest and conviction of the slayers of Mr. Rosenheimer.

All the suspects arrested by the police and sheriff have been discharged. Coroner Weisendanger says he will not hold the inquest until Mrs. Rosenheimer, who is still confined to her bed, is able to appear before him. In addition to this reward, T. Edward Rosenheimer, the son of the dead man, offers $5,000, and it is said that the wealthy residents of: the Pelham summer colony will raise a fund of $5,000, making the total amount of reward to be $12,000.

The offer of so much money has attracted many amateur sleuths, and every night all the dark roads are patrolled. and all strangers are accosted and forced to prove their identity if they act suspiciously. Early to-day two new suspects were taken into custody in Manhattan. The men arrested are Italians and were captured on a Third avenue elevated train. The officer who made the arrests was David Wynn, a New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad detective.

Wynne was sitting in the seat behind them on the train when he overheard them discussing the Rosenheimer murder. From some of the remarks. they let drop Wynne decided. that the Pelham authorities ought to hear a more complete story from them. He took them to the One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street station.

The Pelham police authorities were immediately notified of the arrest and were expected to go down to examine the men and hear what Wynne had to say about them. The utter lack of clews is to the police one of the most remarkable features of the case. New York detectives who have been working on the murder say that dom has a case of this kind been so bare of something to start from. The trail which the bloodhound followed from the garden where Mr. Rosenheimer was struck down to the Pelham railroad station is as far as any one has got.

The description of the two men as given by Mrs. Rosenheimer is very meager, because of her fright, and that given by Henry Scott, the iceman, of the two men who held him up about a quarter of an hour previously is not much better. In many murder cases a weapon usually finds it way into the hands of the police and there is a chance of tracing it back to the owner, but the weapon which killed Mr. Rosenheimer has not yet been found. It is not unlikely that it was dropped into the Hutchinson River, which the murderers crossed on their way to the railroad station.

Mr. Rosenheimer's funeral takes place at Woodlawn Cemetery at 3 o'clock this afternoon. The Pelham Fire Department and a large delegation of the needle manufacturer's -citizens will attend the funeral in a body. Edward Rosenheimer, the dead man's son, said to-day that after funeral he would personally take up the search for the murderers. GIVEN THIRD DEGREE.

He engaged Lawyer Petty, who conferred with the District Attorney and Justice Case. These officials had also been doing further investigating, and they were inclined to accept the prisoner's story.

After having a conference, also, with the man's employer. Mr. Salmon, who said his workman was home' and in bed, Justice Case decided to discharge Koslawski ou the ground that there was not. sufficient evidence to hold him, and the District Attorney consented. Mrs.

Plafski, who was also held, has been let go, and the mystery of the shooting may never be solved. As 1 last resort. Marie Plafski was taken on Wednesday to the hospital at Mineola and to the bedside of her husband. It was thought she knew more about the shooting than she was willing to admit, and, on seeing her husband. might give information against Koslawski.

She was left in the room alone with him, while the authorities eavesdropped outside, with an interpreter, in the hope that she would say something that might be used as evidence. But they learned nothing from the ruse, for neither by word nor action did she tray the slightest thing that would give a clew to the tragedy. Later she was put through a sort of third degree, but firmly held to her original story that she had no knowledge of the shooting. The hospital authorities said yesterday that Platski is doing well, and, from present indications, is likely to recover. REPORTED BY Slasconsett.

SEWER BUILT IN COVERED TUNNEL Downtown Taxpayers Will Make Effort to Have Specifications Changed. DUNNE SAYS IMPOSSIBLE. Commissioner at the Same Time Advises Coler to Reject Bids and Readvertise. A delegation of the Downtown Taxpayers Association called on Public Works Commissioner Dunne at the latter's office in Borough Hall this morning and in behalf of the organization and residents of the section in which it is interested, asked that the borough officials have the work of installing the Gold street reliet sewer done in a covered tunnel instead of by the open-ditch method. Although the delegation was informed that it is practically impossible for the borough officials to expend as much money as the tunneling proposition would cost, they told the commissioner that the organization would at once make an effort to have the specifications.

changed SO that the work of installing the big sewer will be done under cover. Commissioner Dunne told his visitors that it would cost almost twice as much to bore a tunnel for the purpose of constructing the sewer under cover a and that od of doing the work the cost would be with even the ordinary open ditch methtremendous, considerably more than a quarter of a million dollars. The representatives from the Downtown Taxpayers Association declared that all the residents of the section that would affected by the dust and dirt incidental to the open ditch were loud in their demands for the more modern method of doing the work. They said that the belief was prevalent that business would be seriously interfered with for many months, that homes and their contents would be devastated by the ruinous dust and dirt and that life in the section would be practically unbearable. The callers rehearsed the story of the havoc raised by the construction of the Hudson avenue sewer, sowe years ago, by the open ditch method, and declared that the neighborhood had been seriously retarded by it from that time on.

They added that it is to prevent a repetition of that disaster that the effort to have the tunnel method used is being made' by the association, backed up by the residents and property owners. So far as the agitation for the tunnel plan of installing the sewers is concerned, the delegation could not have called at a better time, for Commissioner Dunne had just advised Borough Prestdent Coler to reject the three bids and readvertise the contract. Engineer Forte has jumped back again to his former recommendation that the contract be advertised in three sections. Mr. Dunne addressed this communication to the borough president: "I forward herewith canvass of the bids received 011 the 12th for the construction of the Gold street relief sewer.

These bids were as follows: Borough Construction Company, John J. Creem, Jenks-Asserson Constructing Company, $640,365.40. After careful consideration of this matter; during which a hearing was given to the lowest bidder, John J. Creem, with his engineering counsel and with further reports in the matter from James Dunne (commissioner of sewers) and Engineer Forte of the Sewer Bureau, also Mr. Creuzbaur.

our consulting engineer, I a.m satisfied that this bid is excessive and should be rejected and the work readvertised. Our engineer's estimate of the total cost includes, I understand, a fair allowance for supervision and a percentage for clear profit to the bidders. With a further competition for this important work, a much lower bid should be received by the city." B. R. T.

HOGAN. 551 Seventy-second st. HARVARD CREWS LOSE WEIGHT. Red Top, June 21-To-day was the hottest day on the river that the Harvard oarsmen have had to put up with since their arrival at Red Top, and the work of the men was very light. The university eight went two miles down the river in easy stretches, and the shell moved along with practically no bang.

The oarsmanship was much better than heretotore. Lunt was tried at No. 2 and No. 3 in the 'varsity four-oar shell, in place of Swain and Burchard, but no change for the better was noticed. In the freshman four-oar shell Hadden went in at No.

3, in place of MacLeod. The day was an ideal one for the oarsmen, in which to take off weight, and a few pounds were lost among the crews during the morning. PROPOSALS. PROPOSALS FOR BIDS AND ESTIMATES FOR THE CITY OF NEW YORK. NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS.
