Two more burglaries in the Flat-bush section were reported to-day In spite of the efrorts-of the police to keep the facts from the public.

One took place last night and the other two nights ago, the first being within a block of the Flatbush police station. Two men last night robbed the drug store and sub-poatal station of A. C. Seeinbuehler, at 453 Coney Island avenue. Although they were chased away by the proprietor, whose living rooms are adjacent to the drug store, they escaped with J20 In cash and a thousand postage stamps.

"They Succeeded in covering up their tracks. Steinbuehler "as awakened at 3 o'clock this morning by his wife, who exclaimed: "There's somebody In the store!" Seizing his revolver, Steinbuehler entered the store, but as he did so two dark forms hurled themselves through rear window. Running to the window, Steinbuehler was in time to see one of the two disappear Into East Tenth street. He lit the lights and examined the place. There were sixteen marks of a Jimmy on the back door.

The lock had been broken In two. That the men did their work with unconcern seemed apparent from the fact that two cigar stubs were lying on the porch and the porch was strewed with ashes. The men had beeriunoking while prying their way Into the store. Steinbuehler found his cash register had been broken open and his cash and stamps were gone. On the counter beside the register stood a bottle of arnica taken from the shelves.

Much of It was spilled over the counter. Steinbuehler believes one of the men sprained hia wrist and was calrri enough to do hla own doctoring srhile in the "act of robbery.

Trained Nurse Proves Heroine 5 in Hamilton Avenue. Fire "which destroyed the four-story brick apartment house at 1825 St John's place to-day drove sixteen families Into the street and imperilled the lives of two women, one an invalid phyaically unable to flee from the flames. The women's lives were saved by Policeman William Ward, of the Brownsville station, who was cheered by a larae crowd as he carried the women down the fire escape, although flames raged behind him. The women rescued were Mrs. Jessie Gladstone, who lived -on the top rear, and Mrs.

Rebecca Scader, her neighbor. After the tenants had fled, Policeman Ward, who had sent in the alarm, was informed Mrs. Gladstone was unable to escape. Flames already were eating their way up the staircase and Ward had. to climb up the Are escape.

He brought Mrs. Gladstone two flights down the fire escape, when a woman trtuck her head out on the escape from the fourth floor and cried: "Save me, too! Don't let me die here!" Ward hurried back to where she was and brought the woman, who was Mrs. SeadeT, down to the street wih Mrs. Gladstone. The cause of the Are is unknown.

It started on the first floor In the apartments ot Mrs. Robino-witz. while Mrs. Roblnowitz was out to the store. It caused damage of ,5,000.

But for the prompt and heroic action of Miss McTlghe and a trained nurse and several neighbors! early to-day at 501 Hamilton avenue might have had fatal resufts. The fire started in the apartment of Mrs. Edsell on the second floor, and la-thought to haye been caused by an 1 probably of an oil stovt. V- -The first floor was occupied by. the three children of the- late William Maioney, one of.

whom. May, was confined to bed after an operation, and was being attended by-Miss Mc-Tighe. As soon as the nurse detected the odor of smoke she lifted her patient Jn her arms and carried her safely to the home of a neighbor. On the top floor, in the apartment of Mrs. Fallon, Mrs.

O'Shaughnessy was also recuperating after an operation. She was carried jsafely ncross the roof to the adjoining house of Dr. Brooks by Michael Maioney, of 490 Hamilton avenne. Mrs. Edsell, In whose apartment the fire started, was severely" burned and was helped to safety by James Feeny and Michael Quinn.

The latter was badly cut about the arms by broken glass. While searching through a closet with a lighted candle in her hom on the top floor of the six-story apartment house at' 240 South Third street this morning, Mrs. Rose Pom-eranta dropped the candle and set fire to some clothing. Her screams attracted neighbors, who turned In an alarm. When the firemen arrived the blaze was extinguished with a damage of about J50.

S. Commission. BLOW AIMED AT THE B. R. T.

Want to Make Brooklyn Extensions Merely "Feeders" A serious hitch In the city's subway negotiations wth the Interbor-ough Rapid Transit Company resulted late "yesterday in deferring the next meeting of the negotiators until Monday or later. A. J. County, the assistant-to Vice-President Rea, of the Pennsylvania, who is representing the Interborough people, encountered trouble with them, it was said this afternoon, when he endeavored to obtain their consent to the leaving of the selection of the route for the proposed new Battery tunnel to the Judgment of the Public Service 'Commission. Late this afternoon the indications were that the Interborough will insist on naming the route for Itself.

Tltfs course will put It squarely up to the city conferees to either suspend negotiations with the company or deprive the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company of a proper connection at the Battery for its Broadway and Broooklyn lines. President Shonts and Chairman Belmont are reported to be-firm in their insistence on the Whitehall street tunnel for the Interborough, although the engineers of- the city have reported that this route Is less favorable for the Interborough extensions than a direct connection with the Jora lemon street tube, would be. The Whitehall street route, on the other hand, Is the only one suitable from either the engineering or the traffic point of view for the B. R. T.

lines. A question of practically the same significance was raised by the'lntSr-borough when it submitted Its -ultimatum of last June against the allotment' of Broadway to B. T. the company refused to deal with the city unless" the B. R.

T. were1 excluded from Broadway. Now the Interborough proposes to hold Broadway "allotment to Its competitor by cutting off Its southerly outlet to The northerly outlet of the Broadway line to-Queens already held up by Mayor Gayrtor. 'who. refuses to approve Kitty-ninth street-Queens lines, which he has designated the "cornfield route," The city 'officials who "have hoped for aspeedy settlement with the Interborough are plainly disconcerted by this new development.

Even the best friends of the company among them concede that the patience of the conferees is about taxed to the limit by the eleventh-hour obstructions Invariably found when an adjustment la In sight. This afternoon J. Morgan, Jr. Harry P. Davison, Morgan J.

O'Brien, Seth Low and Mr. County are bringing their final pressure to bear on the Commission and the Board of Estimate to retain Whitehall street for the Interborough. The belief of the Interborough's hackers and lawyers, as lit Is reflected In Wall street, is thajf thls ctLn done th Brooklyn RapM Transit Company will withdraw rrom tXe field. In tbajfsame Wall Street group It is vu.nmuniy unaerstood that the Interborough has no lntenti Ing any new tunnel to Brooklyn. The intention of the company has alwaya been to construct anv new Rrnnkw.

extensions forced upon It aa feeders 10 me present Brooklyn line. Wkh this new development of the situation the conviction of the Inter- oorougn opponents-IP confirmed that the company has no real desire to deal with the city, but is simply "playing'' the conferees for time, until the Public Service Commission may be reorganized and a new pky administration elected. If a conference is held on Monday It la expected there will.be a showdown vote In the committee on the Whitehall street proposition. Such a vote, as the circumstances appear to-day, is pretty sure to precipitate a crisis In subway affairs. It Is the general opinion that an Interborough victory will mean the collapse of the McAneny-Willcox As Indication that the citizene of cuy are taking vital interest In the question of municipal operation of aubways.

In hla decision he tays: "It Is alleged in the complaint that the goods stolen from the plaintiff were found In a pawnshon which was in control of the defendant, "mpitinant demanded the goods of the defendant, who refused to deliver them. "While possession of stolen goods unexplained may justify a conviction of larceny. I don't think that the facts In this complaint justify holding the defendant. No property ghall be taken from a pawnbroker without due proceaa of law. The rights of a pawnbroker.

In particular, are set forth In the Charter of Greater New York. Complainant sufficiently alleges that the gooda were held by defendant aa a pawnbroker and aa auch he was not obliged to deliver them on mere demand to the first comer." WILL HOLD COURT IN Judge Humphrey la joins; to hold court In the River Crest Insane Asylum on the ltth day of this month. He Made the announcement to-day in the Queens County Courthouse, Long Island City. The announcement of this extraordinary proceeding came aa a reault of the suit to have Joseph McKlm, years old. who owns valuable real estete In Far Rockaway, -liberated from the asylum, to which he was committed aeveral years ago.

The suit was brought by a niece of the old man. Mrs. Wilhelmina Collins, of S3 Clinton avenue, and waa later brought in McKim's own name. Two weeks ago the case waa given a hearing and McKlm appeared as a witness. At the time hla answers gave no Indication of insanity.

Mr. McKim was unable to be In court to-day. Dr. William Dold, who is connected with the sanitarium, tes-ifled Mr. McKim's health was In such a condition that if he were brought imiip iinf.

Dr. Fowler continued to Insist that Morse Is a badly broken man, and that he can never return to an active busi ness life.
