Mr.

Brokaw has announced his Intention of turning the property lato apartment house. Tb two bouses wer rented four yeara ago by Mrs. M. H. Gibson, wife of ex-Senator Gibson of Virginia, from Carl Flscher-Hansen, Mr.

Brokaw a son-in-law. Mr. Gibson waa wU knowa through the South, and many mothers sent their daughters to her bouse when they came to New Tork to study mualo or tor other purposes. Bine then th hotel has en- Joyed an excellent reputation a a Quiet place for women, with Mrs. Gibson nd her assistants to chaperon tb younger gueita.

About two years ago Mrs. Gibson took Miss Vaughn as a partner, and on May 1, 1U07, Miss Vaughn assumed entire control of th house, although Mrs. Gibson still Uvea there. Miss Vaughn was 111 yesterday Wben a reporter called, but through a representative she said: Mr. Brokaw has forced me to give up the house by making th rent prohibitive.

I have nearly 130 guests and there are only 150 rooms, but I find It Impossible to pay expense while I am paying so high a rent and am forced to pay for all th repair on th house. I decided I could not keep th house at the present rent unless Mr. -Brokaw mad some necessary improvements, and on Friday Mr. Stotesbury, bis attorney, called and notified me that Mr. Brokaw ttould not meet my conditions.

As a consequence the house will be mad into apartments, which they wer before Mrs. Gibson took them. In th last two years Mrs. Gibson and I have paid out nearly 950,000 on rent and repairs. When Mrs.

Gibson and I ran the house together last year we paid a rental of $31,000. This was found to be altogether too much, and when I took sole charge last May, or hortiv after that. Carl Flsher-Hansen reduced the rent to between $24,000 and $25,000. There are very few vacant rooms now, but I find It difficult to make money on so hlah a rent. Mr.

Brokaw, I believed, has been lessor the bouso since last December. The house closes "with over 100 tenants who ar obliged to leave her by noon on Tuesday. Many of these are young women who ar alone in the city." It Is true that I have withdrawn the Ratcliffe Hotel from its present lessee. Miss Vaughn." 'said Mr. Brokaw last night.

In a little $10 fir In th basement of a building at 839 West Thirty-ninth Street last night fifteen firemen were overcome by a Strang gas. th natur of which waa net determined.

It took, almost two hours for Battalion Chief Devanney to get the fir under control. Capt. Edward Sweeney of Truck 21 was ao badly overcome that It was not until th firemen bad worked over him for half an hour that he revived. Capt. George Cuaa of Engine Company 26 was also overcome.

Thirteen fireman were unconscious and affected more- or less. All wer revived after desperate work 'on th part of their comrade, and no ambulances were called. The fire started In a woodbin in the basement. Dominick Rubin, who occupies a room In the rear sent In the alarm, but the fir had bad a good start in th woodwork. A squad of firemen dashed Into, th cellar and played a stream on the fire.

A sensation not unlike that produced by Illuminating' gas crept over them, but none was enoualy affected while inside the cellar. Just ss soon aa each -sought th fresh air, however, he dropped to th Tcund unconscious, Capt. Sweeney led his meii Into the ptace, and. seeing that the fire was of no consequence, started to go upstair. He was found some time later lying unconscious in one of the rooms on th first floor.

He was revived with difficulty. Meanwhile firemen had left the cellar one after another, and the rear yard was no sooner reached than they dropped to the around and started vomiting. The yard was fairly dotted the unconscious figures. Of Capt. Sweeney's men, who make up a double company, only half of which answered the alarm, all present were overcome.

Substitutes took their places. Battalion Chief Devanney, who made an Investigation, declared that there was no Illuminating gas tn the cellar. He waa unable to find a alngle gas pipe from wnicn illuminating gas might escape. He said the whole thing was a pussle to him. In spite of the fact that It took nearly two hours to get the fire under control, the Battalion Chief declared that the damage was not more than (10.

1SQ3. IDERAEED CAR HITS A PILLAR III SUBWAY Passengers Fight to Jump from Train In First Accident In prookfyn Tubs. LIGHTS ALL EXTINGUISHED Long Block. Results snd Part of the System Out of Joint Till Early This Morning. Speeding through tb Flatbush Avenue extension of tb Brooklyn Subway at 8 o'clock laat night, a car Jumped tb rails snd crashed Into a steel throwing th train into darkness and causing something; of a panic among th passenger.

Xone waa Injured in th scram bl which ensued, but traf.c on tba section between the Borough Hall and th Long Island Station waa tied up for hoars, and that In tb East River tube for half an hour. It was th first accident to occur In tb extension of the Subway, which waa opened on Friday. Tb train, on of aeven cars, bad left th Kevins Street station and was rushing toward tb terminus at Flatbush and Atlantic Avenues, wben the last car lurched violently and Its forward truck Jumped the rails. As th steel car cam In contact with th "third" rail a das-sling sheet of electric flam abot up. and tb current In th rail was short-circuited.

This caused all tb light in tb cars to go out. The sid of tb car struck a' pillar supporting th tunnel roof, but the motorman bad already applied tb emergency brake and tb shock waa not a severe one. Many of th passengers were badly frightened when the car jumped the track and the lights went out. They pushed and struggled to get to th doors, but the guards and cooler beads restrained those who were panic-stricken and prevented them from jumping off. In the meantime a slsmal had been flashed, to the Atlantic Avenue Station and the third-rail current waa shut off.

A little later, when It was found that there waa no further danger, the current was turned on again and all the cars but the one derailed were relighted. This served to quiet the excited passengers and they passed out of th derailed car Into others. The Superintendent of the division hurried down from Atlantic Avenue with a wrecking crew, and the derailed car was detached and the six others proceeded to th Atlantlo Avenue terminal, where the passengers were discharged. It was found that one side of tb derailed car had been badly damaged by striking th pillar. Th police did not learn of the accident until the first of the passengers emerged from the Atlantic Avenue station.

As a result of th accident the service between the Battery and Brooklyn was Interrupted for about thirty minutes. While tb work of replacing the derailed car on the tracks was going on trains between Manhattan and Brooklyn were switched at ths Bough Hall Station. It waa several hounf before tb line sbove th Borough Hall could be cleared, and the service on thla section was tied up until early this morning. Tb Interruption of traffic through the tube caused big- Jams of passengers to form in the stations along tb Une. Tbe platform at tb Borough Hail became ao crowded that th guards were forced to close th gates, and hundreds anxious to get to Manhattan had to take to th trolley and bridge elevated cars.

There was also a crush of passengers at th Bowling Green station. Many Brooklynttes who had started for home from various points In Manhattan, finding traffic through the East River tunnel blocked, ascended to the street and made their way over the Brooklyn Bridge. General Manager Hedley of the Inter-borough Company said last night that the accident bad more or leas affected the service In Manhattan for about an hour. HIS HEAD A BATTERING RAM.

He went to John Foley's saloon at Twenty-first 8treet and Third Avenue, but was refused admittance. But Hans, who Is six feet over an and carrie 210 pound, was determined.

So he walked around to the front of the saloon and deliberately butted his bead through the big plat glass window, and his shoulders stuck fast In the glass.

Tel. Gra storey. IF ILL, SWITCH ON YOUR ELECTRICITY It's the Life Current and We May Turn It On and Off at Will, Says Andrew McConnell. CURE FOR THE DRINK HABIT It Evan Prolongs Life Indefinitely, Says Lecturer In Calvary Baptist Church. Andrew McConnell, who sings of th body electric," gave a fifteen-minute talk before the Current Events Class of the Calvary Baptist Church on Sunday morn-ing, this being the first of three lectures on th subject.

How Christianity snd Science Meet In the Laws of Health." Mr. McConnell Is tbe founder of the Life Electric Institution at Washington. D. C. which has branches In Boston and Brooklyn.

The doctrine is that, th vital power Is electric and that by "producing. Increasing, and controlling the life force, all disease can be cured and lit Indefinitely lengthened." Mr. McConnell made his discovery as the result of a nervous breakdown three year ago. First he tried medical treatment, unsuccessfully; then mental healing, but failed to get well; next in order came courses in divine healing. Christian Science, physical culture, and the Hindu lines of breathing, but in spite of his catholicity of faith he failed to get well.

Then he turned bis attention to the material side, and as a result of bis researches in physics, chemistry, physiology, biology, bacteriology, and all the other material ologles," says he learned that tbe body la a voltaic cell," with an alkaline mucous membrane and acid in th skin, while the body 1 more than half moisture, and that' these three elements produce electricity. "Moreover." be says, "all th bodily functions ar electrical activities. Oal-vanl's frog got to kicking Just as though It were alive wben he used an electric current on the leg." In the same way, he says, breathing and all muscular actions are electric. So Mr. McConnell concluded that electricity ia the life power; lack of it Is disease.

Drinking, he says, is an attempt to add to th vital force. Men of strong vitality never drink. Supply a man with plenty of electricity and he will lose all desire for spirituous liquors. In connection with this Mr. McConnell said a building was to be put at his disposal for a sanitarium, to fight the curse of drink by teaching the patients to poke up their voltaic cells Instead.

The W. C. T. U. is taking up the matter, aays.

and hopes to use it In their future campaigns. The mind is to be the switchboard of this body electric by which the votaries of life electricity may turn on and off the current as they wish. The production of strengthened voltaic currents rests on the stomach, Mr. McConnell said, but he added that this theory could only be learned by attending the lecture courses of his Institute. After the lecture Mr.

McConnell explained to representatives of the pre some of tbe further usefulness of his discovery. It was an especial value to the orthodox churches, he said, because It would keep their members from going abroad into tb field of Christian Science and Faith Healing. Now. he said, the churches had to be on their against these psychic sects, but by adopting Life Electricity they would be able to fight fire with fire. Several Christian Scientists even bad become converts to Life Electricity, be said.

The spread of the discovery within the last six months has been remarkable, Mr. McConnell aaya. and. moreover, there is to be a school opened In New York shortly to train teachers in this line. Before he took up hi present line of activity.

Mr. McConnell led a literary life. He ia a graduate of several universities, be says, particularly that of Alabama, and was for twelve years a lecturer, but auit this to become editor of Th Al- habest. th literary magaxln of Atlanta. Th Rev.

Robert fctuart MacArtnur. the pastor of Calvary Baptist Church, where this talk was given, states that Mr. Ho Conneil's doctrines ar not subscribed to by th Church, but that th congregation was merely listening with an open mind to any aspect of truth which th lecturer had to present. The talk next Sunday morning wilt be on The Scientific Explanation of Mental and Spiritual Hallng." and will begin half an hour earlier than usual, so that any on In th andlenc may ask Mr. McConnell questions.
