Tries to whip two detectives with hatpin when captured. Admits the whole thing. A small, squat-figured girl with a dull face, who looked more like 15 than the 18 years of age to which she confessed, stood in the lineup at Police Headquarters today, while the detectives gazed on her from behind masks so that they might carry in their minds the lineaments of this latest "girl-burglar." The girl seemed inoffensive enough, but the detectives said she was a tartar, who had "jimmied" her way into the home of Mrs. Annie Berger of 80 Debevoise street and stolen a gold watch and chain and a fur coat, after knocking down the housewife, and struggled with them when an attempt was made to place her under arrest. They took the watch as evidence.

The girl told the police and An Eagle representative that her name was lotte Paine and that she lived at 238 Ten Eyek street. With tears she protested that she had not stolen anything, but had gone to the burg house to "look for work." "We found the goods on her." said Detective Fiaschetti, who with Detective Ferris of the Stagg street station made the arrest. "She hangs out with 'Hot Aid MeNulty and his gang at Military Hall." added the other detective, "and sho was concerned in a robbery at 535 West 162d street, Manhattan, the home of Mr. Lyons." A few minutes after 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon Mrs. Berger went into her husband's butcher shop on the first floor of 80 Debevoise street.

She, her husband and daughter live in the rear of the shop. She was busy for some time with the customers, but she looked up in time to see a woman leave her sittingroom, carrying, she says, her daughter's fur coat. Mrs. Berger ran out and seized the woman, who threw her aside and made a leap of the street, with the fur coat dangling over her arm. A crowd pursued her and the detectives joined it.

After a short chase they captured her. She struggled desperately, but it was no 11. c. did not steal anything," said the girl to an Eagle man today. "I went to this woman's house looking for work.

I wanted to do housecleaning. I had been to several other houses looking for a job. "I went through the house rapping on the doors and when came to this woman's door she was just coming out with a pan of meat. She grabbed me and said that I had stolen her watch." "The police say they found the watch in your possession," she was reminded. did not steal it," she insisted.

The girl dried her tears as soon as she was led out into the street and grinned when the photographers snapped her picture. She went along with the police to the court in Williamsburg without further demonstration. When the Paine girl was arraigned before Magistrate Nash in the Manhattan avenue court today she was not inclined take her plight very seriously and acted in a flippant manner. It. was reported to the magistrate that the address she gave the police vesterday-338 Ten Eyek street--was inincorrect.

The home of the girl is at 238 it was asserted. Miss Paine pleaded guilty to the charge of burglary, and was held for the action of the Grand Jury without bail. According to the police, she has been implicated in other robberies, which, it was asserted, seh had virtually confessed to them. It is the theory of the olice that she was used as a tool by a gang of men who have been operating in that section of the borough. WATCH FOR REV.

PUSH ST. GILES PLANS; NO CHANGE OF SITE Property Owners in "Spotless Town" Astonished at Information. ASSOCIATION TO MEET SOON. Members Believed That Their Committee Was Making Terms With Hospital Trustees. The Property Owners Association, the organization formed protest against the erecting of the hostone pital of the House of St.

Giles the Cripple at the corner of Prooklyn avenue and President street, was given a distinct shock today when it learned that the trustees of the hospital have selected an architect, and go ahead and their new building in the very heart of "Spotless The residents were waiting, acording to Charles G. Reynolds, for a report from a joint commitee, representing both parties to the controversy, as to the possibilities of a compromise. While Mr. Reynolds made no suggestion that he thougbt the trustees of the hospital were not acting fairly, he was distinctly surprised at the announcement. He said that the property owners had sent a committee to meet with a delegation from the trustees, and that the protesting residents had been satisfied to wait when that committee returned with the that they would make an investigation.

No report has been made by that commitee says Mr. Reynolds. The property owners have made no further offer to purchase the lot from the trustees, and in fact, have left everything at a standstill until they heard what the delegates had to say. Under these circumstances, the property, informed owners today were that much Ludlow surprised Pea- to body, Manhattan architects, have prepared preliminary sketches and are even now working on the actual drawings for the hospital. Dr.

The lot at the corner of Brooklyn avenue and President street just fits our needs, and so we will use it. "I think the property owners in that section of the city forfeited any right to name terms which they might have had, when they started their active protest against our site while the campaign was on. We were in the midst of our strenuous efforts, you remember, when they sent out postcards and handbills calling attention to our site, which they claimed was an encroachment on their residential section.

"We have selected architects who know their business, and we plan to erect a hospital which will be anything but a shame to the community. We bought the lot as business men, and you may be sure we intend to use it as such without hard feeling." At the offices of Ludlow Peabody In Manhattan it was said the preliminary sketches of the bospital were just being filed, but that no actual drawings have rot been made. The Property Owners Association was formed to keep the hospital out, if possible, a and Mr. Reynolds on admitted that some action will be taken at once, although he could not say what form it would take. "We will hold a meeting soon," he explained, "and will look into the matter.

We can say nothing now, for this is the first intimation we have had that the St. Giles trustees actually intend building here. We thought we would be consulted again, but since we were not, we will have to see what else we can do." HOFF DINES COMMITTEE And Is Rewarded by Gift of Traveling Bag. (Special to The Eagle.)

The dramatic incidents immediately following the crash of the Jenkins Trust Company on October 25, 1907, when the senior John G. Jenkins met his sons and other fellow directors in the office of the company, at Gates and Nostrand avenues, were partly told in the concluding moments of the trial before Justice Crane, in the equity term of the Supreme Court, in the contest over the ownership of a $265,000 mortgage, which is held by the Banking Department for the benefit of the Lafayette Trust Company creditors. At the conclusion of the case Justice Crane indicated that be thought the equities were with the defendants, no matter what the strict legalities might be, and he took the case under advisement, giving the lawyers until April 6 to file briefs. Herman B. Scharmann, the brewer, and Hugo Hirsh, attorney--both of them directors of the old Jenkins Trust Company, and who participated in the exciting events following the closing of the Jenkins Trust Company doors, were witnesses.

The lawyers of the Trust Company, Frank M. Patterson and Almet Reed Latson, tried to show just what bappened before and at the time the elder Jenkins made the assignment of the mortgage. Nothing that the dead man said at the time could be detailed. The courts have decided tat such statements are not admissible as evidence. This fact made the evidence given by Mr.

Scharmann very dramatic. In answer to uestiong he told of the affection and respect generally held for the senior Jenkins and spoke in glowing terms of his own feeling for the aged banker. He was sure that the mortgage was riven to secure every kind of an obligation of any and all members of the Jenkins family. At one time in his testimony Scharmann burst out, quoting Mr. Jenkins as follows: 'I am worth over $1,000,000.

I have given the company mortgage which will cover every indebtedness in which my name and the names of my sons are brought into Lawyer Wilson objected on the ground that such statement to be valid should have been made in writing and signed by the senior banker and the court ordered it stricken from the record. Lawyer Hirsb testifled. so far as he was permitted. same incidents and told what was done in turning over the affairs of the Jenking Trust Company to its successor, the Lafayette Trust Company.

Conversely, every time the merchant treats prospective customer pleasantly, chows the advertised article, and explains Its merits, he is helping the manufacturer as well as himself. It's a fair game of push and pull.

When manufacturer and merchant work together through the columns of the local newspapers are moving to SUCCESS along the "Easier Way." If any manufneturer who is interested In co-operative dealer work will address the Bureau of Advertising. American Newspaper Publishers Association, World Building.

367 White Fulton Jamaica Plains, N. Y. BURLINGAME IS BEATEN Only 2 Votes Cast Against Register O'Loughlin's Bill. (Special to The Eagle.) Albany, March 25-Assemblyman Alvah W. Burlingame, was beaten, last night, on the bill to reorganize the Register's office in Kings County.

Mr. Burlingame, having twice prevented the advancement of the O'Loughlin last night. Hunter McQuistion bill, made another, speech against it made a reply. When a vote was taken, Burlingame cast one of the two votes against the bill. The other was cast by Alfred E.

Smith. There were only two votes out of 140 cast against the bill. McQuistion caught the House by making a stormy speech, in which he cast party lines and conventions to the winds. Burlingame tried to make the matter a political question. McQuistion said he knew 0'Loughlin was an Independence Leaguer, but he didn't care what he was if he was a good official and introduced a good bill.

It developed, last night, what the real row is over the bill. The Legislature provided for some new places in the Register's office last year. The Board of Estimate, on the advice of Controller Prendergast, it is sald, would not appropriate funds for the places. The Board, however, made some new positions and offered them to Mr. O'Loughlin as a substitute.

He refused these places, and the situation has hung fire. Now Mr. O'Loughlin is trying to make the Legislature force the hand of the Board by making the obligation of the Controller to issue the bonds mandatory. If the bill up here becomes a law, there will be half a dozen nice, fat, soft jobs in the Register's office, ranging from $3,000 to $1,500. HAGGERTY KILLED BY BLOWS.
