FIXTURES SEIZED Lobby of New York Establishment Topsy-Turvy During Opera- tions and Replacement. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 26.—Enforcing 8 replevin writ arising from chattel mort- gage defaults, warkmen entered the 1,000-1 the lobby, but new furniture arrived to replace the seized Articles a short time later. Guests seated in the hotel lobby at Fifty-first street and Seventh avenue were asked to rise from divans and chairs, and the dismantling was carried out by two dozen men under the direc- tion of deputy sheriffs and police. The management protested vigorously at the removal of the fur- nishings, which had an estimated ag- gregate value of $300,000. “We will not be inconvenienced,” said Harry Kurzrok of the realty firm against which the action was taken, “as soon as the furniture is moved out we will have new furniture moved in.” Anticipa that the hotel would re- fuse to provide elevator service for the movers, the sheriff’s force said a month might be required for the operation, sinee it would be necessary to carry some of the furniture down as many as 14 | fiights of stairs. . Some guests, leaving with their bag- gage, found the hotel’s main entrance blocked by a heap of furniture. They | then threaded their way between chairs, | tables and settees and made their exit | through a corner drug store. John Ledyard (1751-1789), the Con- necticut-born traveler, once traveled from Sweden to the western coasi of Siberia, all the way on foot, with prac- tically no money or suitable clothes and equipment. | | | Estab. | Linger’s =z Specialists on Mattresses and Springs Save Money by Consditing Us .
