Forces Thief to Drop His Loot and Flee for His Life. Wielding a small baseball bat with ail the strength of her vig- orous youth, Miss Clara Anderson, 4 servant employed by L. 8, Schwa- bacher, president of the Sehwa-| bacher Hardware company, beat a burglar so vigorously that he drap-| ped about $1,500 worth of jewelry and hastily fled from the residence, at 16th av. and Bast Union st., last night. That the burglar planned his job well was evident. Before starting to loot the residence he turned on the gas in Miss Anderson's room as she lay asleep. Girt Starts Trouble. The servant luckily awoke, gasp- ing and choking. Quickly turning off (he gas, Mise Anderson rushed to the crib in which slept Mr, and Mre. Schwabacher's baby. The in- fant was not suffering from the ef-| fects of the gas. Looking from the) door of her room, Miss Anderson saw a man in the front room. Selz ing the small baseball bat, the ser vant rushed toward the burglar, who was masked Drop those things,” demanded | Miss Anderson, striking the bur. glar with the bat, In his hands | the thief carried Mrs, Schwabach er's Jewel case. The burglar failed to drop the jewel case, and Miss | Anderson struck him again, Woman Is Game. With an oath the burglar drop- ped the jewels and struck the ser vant a vicious blow with his fist, knocking her down Nothing Determined not to be held up for an additional nickel for extra fares contemplated under the orders of the Seattle Wlectrie Co., forbidding conductors to issue transfers upon transfers, scores of people yesterday |refused To pay the extra fare on different lines where {t was de- }manded by the conductors A bunch of laborers on a Unl- Vevsity car yesterday refused to be held up by paying another nickel. | The conductor insisted that it was |the company's rule, The men |laughed at him. He argued and cajoled, and then threatened to put them off. The threat failed to work, and the car was stopped. The men laughed, and, seeing that there was no other way out of it, the con ductor allowed the car to pioceed, and the men did not pay the extra fare. Others Refuse. This was repeated on other cat lines in the cases of men and wom- jen who had informed themselves |that the Seattle Electric company jhad no right to collect the extra nickel The company’s franchise, plainly stating that a person was entitled |to a continuous ride from one point to any other point in the city limite for « single nickel, no matter bow many transiers were required, was quoted to the conductors, whose re- ply was, “Well, it is the new-rule.” Many reports from conductors who had been unable to compel pas- sengers to pay the extra fare were ade last night. Make Demand on Furth. Yesterday afternoon A. V, Boull- lon, superintendent of public util- ties, and Scott Calhoun, corporation council, appeared before President | Furth of the Seattle Electric com- pany, in the latter's office, and asked that the orders of Mr. Potter be rescinded. They quoted the | passage in the franchise, which was absolutely clear that the company jhad no legal right to enforce its order. Mr. Potter, who issued the order, was not present, and it was ex- plained that he was out of the city, President Furth, however, ex- plained that he would see Mr. Pot- ter some time today, and would then notify the city authorities of what they would do in the matter. Mr. Houttlen is determined that the Seattle Electric Co. shall live up to fits franchise, and he an- nouneed most emphatically that the company’s action in trying to en- force the extra fare is an impost- tion on the people.
