URGLIRS BEAT WOMAN WHER FLAT Mrs. Maple: Returned Un- expectedly, and Was At- tacked by Thieves, Who- Made Off with Property, EASY MARK FOP, ROBBERS. Apartments Known as “Cupid’s . Flats” Are Paid Frequent ‘ Visits-by Cracksmen in Search of Wedding Presents. ‘ Tt {s scarcely news that the “Cupid Plats’ in East One Hundred and Four- teenth street have been robbed again. 'This row of apartment houses 1s re- nowned in Harlem as the home of more honeymooning couples than any other In the northern end of the borough. Con- sequently it is a mark for the enter- prising flat-house burglar. Young wives are careless about leav- ing things around: they go out visiting frequently, they leave no children in their flats and to a thief of wisdom robbing the “Cupid” row is like getting money from home. According to Mrs. Lena Maple, of No. 6 East One Hundred and Fourteenth atreet, who was kicked and beaten in her own flat by two robbers, the work was done by men who have a system. From the story of Mrs. Maple the Police are led to believe that the thieves rent @ flat in the building they mean to fo through and install a woman in it. ‘This woman makes a point of getting acquainted with the other tenants, ‘watches thelr habits and reports to the thieves. Mysterious Woman Came, Mrs. Maple has been married for three months. Snortly after che moved into the “Cupid” flats a woman tenant took apartments in the building and became very Yriendly. She had a way of sitting fround and asking questions that was embarrassing to the young wives in tne house, and none of them was sorry when the woman moved away after one month, Then the robberies began, not only In the “Cupid” flate, but througaout the melghborhood. The thieves made a specialty of young married couples and Uppeared to hanker after wedding. pres- ents. Not until yesterday did one of “the victims get a look at the robbers. Pansed in the Hall. Mrs, Maple left her flat on the fourth floor yesterday afternoon to visit a friend on the floor above. As she went out Mrs. Mabel Hirschfeld, a bride of three days, stepped out of the flat on the opposite side of the hall. The ‘women spoke and went on, Mrs, Maple upstairs, Mrs. Hirschfield down, On the stairway Mrs. Hirschtleld mot @ Gark-facea, slouchy young man who did not appear to fit into the house. Bho thought perhaps he was a peddler ‘who had been called in from the street. On the stoop ovtside she saw a tail, @00d-looking young man, very w dreased, who had a small diamond stick pin in his scarf. She thought he lived in the house. Mrs, #irschteld walked across to No. 8 East One Hundred and Fourteenth street to visit a Mrs. Davis, She did not: know the number of the house in which her friend lived, and was looking et the names in the letter boxes when the tall young man came over from the “Cupid” flats. He Would Help Her. “Excuse me," he said, “but you ap- pear to be looking for somebody. 1 know this nelghborhood and may be ‘fable to help you.” Mrs. Hirschfield told whom she was looking for, and the young man voliin- \ | LELY FRE AT NEW. ANSON W. E. D. Stokes, the Owner, Clad in Pajamas, Directed Work of Putting Out Blaze and Help- ing Guests. DOCTOR SAVED HIS CHILD. Formal opening of the Ansonia, W. E. D. Stokes's new $3,000,000 apartment hotel, covering the block on Broadway between Seventy-second and Seventy- thind streets, was announced for to-day, but a little fire whish occurred In the pasement at midnight has necessitated @ postponement, The blaze did less than $1,000 damage, but the richly frescord corridors were badly emirched by smoke. Cleaners were put at work on them this morning and Mr. Stokes expects to hold his opening early next week. One hundred and ten families, com- prising about five hundred persons, are already In the house. ‘The fire gave them | quite a scare for a while, and all of them left their rooms. Several of the ladies fainted and kept the four hotel physicians, Dra. Townley, Jones, Fowler and Hall busy for a while. Reacaed Hin Baby Gi To add to the excitement two firemen] | were overcome by smoke and Dr. Oliver | | Wertcott Hall, who drove up to the ho-] tel while the fire was in progress, made a dramatic rescue of his baby, girl. The tenants feel assured to-day that the managemept has provided as well for their safety In case of fire as it as for thelr comfort and luxury. The Ansonia Is advertised as the big- gest, and most luxuriously furnished apartment hotel {f the world. It 1s a clty In ftself, covering a elty block and rising to a height of sixteen stories. It.is built to accommodate 0 fam: ilies, Everything about it Js supposed to be up to date, and of course its ap- paratug for notifying the army of ten- ants ln case of fire represents the latest measurea of safety. The unexpected baptism of fire proved the reliability of these safeguards. Just before midnight the steward, Mr Horton, detested the odor of smoke. ‘The fire was immediately located tn teered the {nformation that there was a Mrs. Davis at No. M4.
