Brooklyn Polio Now Oonrinced There Is Such a Man. He Seeme to Haye a Preference for Long, Dark Brown Hair.

The Brooklyn police have Anally become convinced that "Jack the Shearer," the Individual who hns for years ter-rifled schoolgirls, particularly In the Eastern District, by cutting off their luxuriant loqks of hair. Is a reality, and are now engaged In an active search for the miscreant. Heretofore the police have always Insisted that the "Shearer" was a myth and that It was the victim her-1 self In every Instance who had cut off her hair. They thought so last Tuesday when eleven-year-old Qertle McBrlde, of 264 Division avenue, reported at the Sixteenth Precinct station-house that her hair had been cut off from her head while on her way to school by a pockmarked man, about twenty-four years' old, with light hair and red mustache, but when Carpenter Otto C'lundt, ef 3J0 Linden street, made a similar complaint yesterday at the Cedar' street station, evidently against the same man who sheared off Gertie Mcllrlde's tresses, the police became roused to action. According to Mr.

Clundt, his seventeen-year-old daughter Caroline, while on her way to a grocery, about 9 o'clock Saturday night, was accosted by a man, who naked her where 390 Linden street, her own home, was. The man was leaning agalnBt a lamppost, and she had a full view of his features, which were pockmarked. He had light hair, red mustache, was about 5 fet 6 Inches tall, wore a dark cutaway suit and black derby hat. and carried a red leather valise, which he was engaged In opening. "Who 1b It you want to see?" asked Miss.

Clundt. "A Mrs Schellhardt, answered the man. Bhe doesn't live there now, rspoaded Caroline "She has married again, and Is now Mrs. Follet. She lives at Suy-dam street and Hamburg avenue." The man Insisted on knowing where 390 Linden street was, however, and, as she turned to show him, she felt something cold on her neck, and heard a quick "snip, snip." She turned quickly, and, seeing a pair of ta.lors' shears In the man's hand, realised that she had met the dreaded "Shearer." Hut Caroline was game.

Doubling up a pudgy fist, she struck her assailant a stinging blow which made his nose bleed. Then she ran for home across lots as fast as she could, the man shouting after her: "I'll kill you! I'll see you again and get It yet!" Caroline's hair, which reached nearly to her waist, had been about one-quarter cut off on the right side of her head. On her way to church with her father yesterday Caroline saw the man who cut her hair waving a handkerchief at her from the window of an train at Myrtle and Gates avenues, and pointed him out to her father. The police learned from Mrs. Follet that her husband knew a man answering the description of Miss Clundt's assailant and they are now looking for him.

Brooklyn, especially Williamsburg, has long been a favorite stamping ground for hair-cutting ruffians. Over twenty years ago The Williamsburg Slasher" terrified girls and women for weeks by slashing their hair off with a knife, and even rutlng their faces. He was never caught. About two years ago The Shearer" began his work, and It is believed that he and the present terror are one and the same. Among his victims have been the following: Lulu Hewitt.

151 Sehermerhorn street; Florence Billings, 416 St. Mark's place; and Gertrude Breast, of 363 St. Mark's place, all of whom attended Public School 15, at State street and Third avenue, Brooklyn; Sylvia Mo-Murray, of 224 Leonard street, and Eva Whitehead, of 475 Kosciusko street, Brooklyn. About the same time "The Shearer," or his prototype came over to New York and numbered among his victims Bachel Blond, of 249 Eust Seventy-ninth street; Hannah Shannon, of 2396 Second avenue, and Maggie Dorr, of 318 East Thirty-fifth street. A few months ago "The Shearer" boarded a Greene avenue, Brooklyn, car, clipped off the hair of a young woman passenger, and.

throwing It Into a valise he carried. Jumped from the car and escaped. It Is a peculiar fact that all of "The Shearer's" victims have long, dark-brown hair. ACCUSED OF LICARDO'S MURDER. Fsasano and Bldano Turned Over to Bsth Bench Polios.

A lively time In the Bepubllcan camp In Brooklyn, that may rival the meeting once held In Historical Hall, Is expected to-night, when the special committee appointed to supervise the new elections of officers In the Ward Committee, of the delegates to the County Committee and of the Executive Committee members In the Twenty-fifth Ward, will convene for that purpoee. The anti-Worth people controlling two-thirds of the total vote are sure to secure the delegates to the General Committee. The Worth faction Is expected to make a hard fight to win over votes. In the Twenty-fifth Ward two delegates were excluded for Irregularity. They will be allowed to take their seats to-night, but It will not have any effect upon the result.

The Seventeenth Ward people are having a high old fight among themselves. Some of the anti-Worth people In that ward claim that Nason delegates were elected Illegally. They say that all Worth had to do was to direct Buttling to make up a roll giving all the Nason delegates scats In the County Committee. It was an easy and simple task, although It enraged the anti-Worth faction when carried out. During all this fighting between the reorganiiatlonists Nathan.

the dethroned leader, has almost worn out his coat at the elbows laughing up his sleeve. ROCK AW AT MURDERERS ESCAPE. Polios Bearotalngr for toe Italians Who Slew Thalr Countryman. FAB BOCKAWAY. L.

QUEER MM IS IT BERMUDA. A Cable Says She Arrived There in a Disabled Condition. It la Ilelleved Now that Nothing but Storms Delayed Her, Yachtemen In this city drew a long breath of relief to-day when a cable despntch "was received from Bermuda announcing that Mr. Percy Chubli's recent purchase, the trim English yacht, yucen Mab. had arrived safely at Bermuda, but In a disabled condition.

Pessimists have for some time been saying that the Queen Mah was at the bottom, and while the facts seemed to wai rant such a belief. Mr. Chubb always stuck to It thai tbe Mah would reach Bermuda In good time. The yueen Mab set sail from Southampton i'ii May 17, and should have reached this port not later than June 11. She was manned by a British crew.

All sorts of stories have been In circulation as to the probable cause of her delay In arriving, and mutiny among the crew has been suggested. It appears, however, from the meagre details at hand that the queen Mab en-i-ssuntered nothing worse than a succession of severe storms, which badly dam aged her. The most famous yacht In British waters last season was the queen Mnb. Out of forty-two starts she won twenty-four first prizes, eleven second and one third, making a total of In winnings, as well as the silver cup offered by the Koyal Forth Yacht Club. Her former owner was Mr.

T. C. B. West, from whom she was purchased by Mr. Percy Chubb, who expected her to arrive In time to take part In the American Yacht Club races recently held.

The Queen Mah was designed by Q. L. Watson, the designer of the Thistle, Valkyrie and other famous racers, and was built by the Hendersons on the Clyde. On the water line she Is a trifle under feet, 17 feet beam, and her sail nrea Is about 4. 000 square feet.

The Queen Mab Is the largest boat ever constructed on the other side that carried a centreboard. She carries a crew of about twelve men. MR. STEVENS WANTS S2.000. Says Be Bugrested the Ball to the Duke of Veragua.

President McClellan, of the Hoard of Aldermen, who Is also the Secretary of Mayor Gllroy's Columbian Committee of One Hundred, received from John Aim-tin Slovens, to-day a hill claiming 12,000 for services rendered In connection with the citizens' ball lo the Duke of Veragua In April last nnd the nuval I parade. 1 Mr. Stevens had not been authorized to perform any services for the Committee, and President McClellan was curious to know on what the claim was bused. According to two letter-books accompanying the note. Mr.

Stevens claims the honor, and (2.000 therefor, of having suggested the Idea of the citizens' ball and naval parade. John Austin Stevens, alro filed three claims, aggregating 1850 30, for ex- I pendltures In the same connection. The sum of 1357.10 Is claimed for postage and clerk hire and $115.85 for advertising. Both Btevenses on the Chambei of Commerce Committee which arranged for the reception of the Duke of Veragua. and subsequently they were mnde members of the Mayor's Committee.

The Committee of One Hundred assumed the contracts for music, ballroom hire nnd caterer. Mr. Stevens, made himself very busy, but nobody expected that he would demand pay. The Stevens family Is one of great prominence In business and social circles, and the action of the younger Stevens In filing a claim for services against a committee of which he Is an honorary member has elicited a good deal of comment. Mayor Ollroy, who Is Chairman of the Committee of One HundreJ, when seen by a reporter said: "The claims sre false anil ridiculous.

Neither of the Stevenses had any right to disburse any money fur the city. They were pot authorized to do so nor employed by the Committee. If they have any claim It Is against the Chamber of Commerce." HELD FOR THE CORONER Futorapsky's Rorse K'tled Mrs. Dc-kow's Little Baby.

They did not do so, and In order lo avoid striking them he turned his horse's head towards the sidewalk. I'nfortunately he turned In at the exact point where little Esther was Btepplng Into the street. The horse struck the child, throwing the baby from her arms.

The frightened horse then Jumped frantically around, one of his sharp-shod hoofs coming down on the baby's temple and crusnlng It as though IT were an egg-shell.

A good ground swell i was rolling in and the sky was covered with gray clouds, heavy and black to the westward. At 10.30 the Judges' boat took up bar position a quarter ol a mile north of Halfway Rock, and soon the racers and the smaller craft began to work out to the sinning line.

Therefore, the start was delayed until 11.35. when they got away for a run before the wind to the Nahant mark, carrying: club topsails and spinnakers.

The Mayflower started with lead of about one minute over the Marguerite and aliout three minutes over the Volunteer. At 11. 4R the whistle blew for the eer-enth class sloops, and one minute and forty seconds later the Harpoon broke out her spinnaker as she started, followed at Intervals of one minute by the fifth class sloop Handsel, sailing alone, and the Wasp.
