- SAND SAGGERS "HGAINAT WORK Bellet that Foot-Pads Are Employing Their Old Clueless Methods, REGENT CASES INDICATE IT. John Burke's Death Was Evi- h dently Caused from a Blow by Highwaymen. j GAY BE PIERSON WAS SO KILLED, Aged William Collins Also Found , Unconscious, Only This Mern- Ing, in a Hallway, ‘The belief ts steadily gaining ground that o gang of “sand-baggers” {s again @ work in the metropolis. Years ago ‘that class of highwaymen and footpads ‘operated in almost every section of the city, but one by one they were captured or driven away by the then Inspector ; Byrnes. It has been the present Chief of Po- @ Mee's boast that the sand-bag, as a ‘weapon, had practically gone out of ex- fistence. Events of the mat few weeks, however, go to show that it is again be- ing employed to strike down the rob- bers’ victims and to leave no mark that ‘would furnish a clue. The death of John Burke, in the Roosevelt Hospital Monday morning, gives strength to the belief. At first when he was taken there his was @eemed an ordinary case of intoxication, but the autopsy held yesterday shows Burke was struck with some kind of a ‘weapon, in all probability a sandbag, which rendered him unconscious and which kept him in that condition until Gied, Ward Detective Thompson, ef the West Forty-seventh str2*t police Station, who has charge of the case, is working on that line. Sandbaggers Killed Burke. ‘When Burke was taken to the hospital @ careful examination was made by the Physicians, but not a mark of any kind was found on his body. After death, however, the autopsy was performed by Deputy Coroner Huber. Ho found that the man had received @ bad fracture of the skull. Had the fracture been caused by a fall or by some blunt instrument, it must ve made some outward mark. The @bsence of auch, however, points to the one conclusion that a sand-bag was used. An “Evening World” reporter started out this morning to learn more particu- Jars wbout Burke, and the results only strengthened the above conclusions. He . Was a young man of athletic build, and lived et 40 West Thirty-fifth street. Hi left home on the afternoon of May 13 and had then a considerable sum of money about him, He had been drink- oy It was about 7 o'clock that night when @ boy, who lives in the house 60s West Forty-second street, noticed a man lead- ing rently drunken companion into a hallway. The boy told his mother | | of the occurrence, but she did nothing. The drunken man was Burke. ‘There are three families in the house named, and the ground floor is occupled by G. W. Glanini as a paint and oll store. One of the latter's employees is L. Bracken, whone duty it is to open the every morning. May 14 he got to the B at 7 A. M. and was informed at the drunken man was still in the allway. Bracke nted to Ket him out and tried to awaken the man, but failed. Robbed of Even His Shoes. He noticed at the time that the man had neither hat, coat nor shoes; nor were these articies to be found any- where. Bracken called in Policeman Kear, who was on post, and both tried to arouse Burke, who had then been lying in the hallway over twelve hours. It ‘Was £30 when the officer culled a w: @nd took the man over to the pol station. There the sergeant after lance at the man, called an ambulance nd had him clothing was searched, but no money w found in his posession. ‘sually the neighborhood where Burke cn wus referred to Commissioner Havens, en to the hospital.

The police are try: fg to locate these articles. Pierson and Also Victin It was only yesterday that “The Eyen- poe, World” told of the death of John jerson, of 167 West Twenty-first street, who had been brought to his home w gonsctous in a cab May 6 Like Burke, Pierson had a bad fracture of th @kull. but it was not discovered until the autopsy was held. In Pierson’s case an inquest has been | * held, and the Coroner's jury promptly. ight in @ verdict that the man had elear up that mystery.

Police Have Been Informed, but So Far No Good Has Come of It, Residents of the block on Fifty-third Atrest, between ‘Tenth and Ninth avenueg are in terror from a gang of men who haunt that locality, attack and insult men and women who pass at night, take pessession of flats against the protest of the owners and janitors, and who rush the growler at all times of the day and night, Many times the police of the West Fotty-reventh atreet station have been appealed to, but the gang scems abso- lutely indifferent to the officers.

They could endure it no longer, and were afratd of meeting with bodily harm. Mra, Koster informed the Captain that she had been to the station several times before with a simiir complaint, but matters had reached such a pass now that something should be done, and done quickly, She herself had been in- sulted while passing through the block. ‘The Captain took her name, and then Instructed the Sergeant to detail two men In citizens’ clothes to Ile in wait for tho gang both afternoon and evening and arrest all of them on sight. ‘The janitor of the butlding ts a German named Banger, who lives with his wife, aister and child on the first floor.
