CRIME OF AN EX-BELL BOY ASSAULTS HARRY CHILDS WHILE HE IS ASLEEP. Invades His Room in the St. Nicholas and Attempts to Murder Him. Captured by the Police. Harry Childs, who conducts a news stand in the St. Nicholas Hotel, yester- day informed the police that a burglar entered his room in the hotel shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday morning and grabbing him by the throat placed a sponge satu- rated with chloroform to hls nostrils.. He seized the intruder, who fought desper- ately to escape from the room. In the struggle Childs severely bit one of his as- sailant’s fingers. As he ran from the room Childs fol- lowed him, lustily calling for help. In the dim light which was burning in the hallway he claims he caught a glimpse of the burglar and immediately recog- nized him as a young man named Steve Harding, who formerly worked as a bell- boy in the Palace Hotel. Detectives Tom Gibson and Edward Egan, after listening to his story, started out to arrest Harding. They found him at the Fashion stables on Ellis street, conversing with one of the employes. He was placed under arrest and taken to po- lice headquarters. was found a loaded revolver. He had a special poljceman’s star, which he | claimed was given him by a friend. When questioned by the detectives Harding said he was 20 years of age, and had worked in_various hotels as bellboy. He admitted that he had a ‘scrap” with Childs, but denied that he had in- tended to rob him. “I have known Childs for some time,” he remarked, “frequently occupying the | same room with him in the St. Nicholas.
