The washery coal gave out this morning, and the Welsh coal upon reaching a certain heat cracks open and explodes, scattering the fire. From it sufficient heat could not be maintained to operate the dynamos and it was necessary to close them down completely. An official of the company announced that they hoped to secure a cargo of oe washery coa! during the day, and thai then there would be no interruption or delay In traffic, Y. M,C. A. ANNUAL DINNER. International Committee Will Meet at Waldorf To-Night, ‘The annual dinner of the International SKULL AND CROSSBONES. Red ink und skull and crossbones have been resorted to by practical jokers or Anarchists to scare Rudolph Reimer, an Bast New York coal dealer, Into keeping down the price of his coal. He received a postal card Saturday threatening to burn down his house, and the police now have six men on watch to keep the threat from being carrted out. ‘Why Reimer should have been specifi- cally selected for the threat is not un- eretood by East New Yorkers, for he, more than any other coal denier, has kept his prices Gown and haa in addition given much coal to the poor. (He has been selling coal at 2% oents a bushel, whereas many of the other dealers have been demanding & cents, CREEK ARRESTED, THEN SET FREE. Flower Peddler Taken Into Custody and Identified as Man Who Had Choked Other Boys Near Scene of Tragedy. JUST BY PARK ENTRANCE. Father of Strangled Youth Aided the Police in Securing Evidence Against the Prisoner, but Police Let Him Go. Nicholas Kallas, the Greek flower- seller, who disappeared from the corner of Elghty-sixth street and Central Park West at about the thme ttle Michael Kruck, the newsboy, was strangled to death in the park and who was men- tloned a a persistent enemy of tae, newsboys, was arrested afternoon, and when he falied to confess he wnt released. Capt. Thomas, of the Arsenal police station, sald: “He would not admit any connection! with the crime, Of course he said he had had frequent fights with the news- boys, but he positively denied strangling the Krick boy, and as we had no one who saw him do ft we had to let him o. Kallas, who lives at No. 161 West ‘Twenty-first street, was traced through the wholesale dealer from whom he Purchased hie flowers each morning. All of the boya who have been selling newspapera at Elghty-sixth street and Central Park West have minutely de- ribed to the police the Greek who sold lowers on that corner and who wa. much a nuisance to the bogs boys were to him. Suspicion was first to the flower-seller by the storlen told by little atrected Michael Kruck's companions, Each one knew of eome particular Instance in which the Greek was Implicated. They told of the fear in which the boys held m and each corroborated the statement Michael's brother James that the flower-vender had several times chased Michael into the park, where Michael eluded him by hiding In the shrubbery, That a favorite method of this Greek in fighting the newsboys waa by chok- ing them 1s Indicated by the statements of Jamox and Eugene Nelligar, news- boys, und by Frank Carr, a driver, who. rescued James while the Greek was strangling him. Bvery day for many months the Greek had sold flowers at the Eighty-sixth street entrance to the vark. He wus seen there a minutes before 3 o'clock Wednesday night. The dead body of the Kruck boy was found in the park about 9.30 o'clock. In his pocket was a street-car transfer issued al 8 o'clock, Indieating that he had been strangled sume time hetween § and 9.39 o'olock, and as the body was getting coll when found the police favor the theory that he was killed perhaps an hour and a half before bis body was found After & o'clock that night the Greek was not seen at his usual place. He did not appear Thursday, Friday or any subsequent day. These facts were laid before the police by an Evening vow reporter and a general alarm wa: out for the arrest of the Greek. york in finding him was diMoult, as in the neighborhood he had no intimates and no one knew his name, At last the police found where he hi been in the habit of purchasing rth supply of flowers, and from there the detectives traced him to No. 161 West ‘Twenty-first street. The arrest of Kallas followed. Detectives O'Brien and Mulvey, who made the arrest, say they are certain that Kalins is the man who soll flowers at Bighty-sixth street. They intimated that they had sufficient evidence con- necting Kall with the death of Michael Kruck to warrant them in not only arresting, but holding him, regari- less of any statement or admissions he might make. The newsboys who jv the Greek flower-seller and who ua had trouble with him were summoned to the sta- tion to Mentify him, if possible. Henry D. Kruck, a tailor at No, 389 Central Park West and living at No. 771 Colum- bus avenue, the father of the murdered boy, has believed that the flower-sellor was the assailant of his child and has been working independently on that theory. It is sald that through a can- vases among the playmates of his son he has been able to provide the police with much valuable information. Of Instances where the flower-seller pursued and assaulted newsboys there are many. James Neliigar, twelve years old, who, with his brother Eugene, formerly sold papers at the Eighty-sixth street end of at No. 181 West Ninety-ffth street, had an experionce with the Greek simtlar to what the po- lee belleve was that of the Kruck boy, the only difference being that Nelligar escaped death . ‘The Nelligars say that one evening about three weeks ago the flower mallee became angry and pursued them. Bugene fell and the Greek ia paid to have kicked him tn the face. Going on further he caught James Nelliga; choked him until he wai blue tn ‘the "Dhle story i corroborated by Frank rr, a driver, living at No, 157 Bt. enue. Carr says (hat he was the Bighty-aixth street en- trance to the park one evening about three weeks ago when he saw the Greok knock a newsboy down and kick him several times HR ne face.
