Two women, each about forty years old and well dressed, were the centre of a big crowd to-day at One Hundred and Twenty-ffth street and Eighth ave- nue. One woman held the other, who was trying her best to encaps. The crowd did not Interfere, but watched! the tussle until Polleeman Logan, of the West One Hundred and Twenty- fifth ntreet station, took a hand. He set- tled the squabble by making an arrest. Six months ago Mfrs, Hannah Hamil- ton, of No, 8 Manhattan avenue, went | to Europe and rented her furnished apartment to Mrs. Mary Kelly, of No. 23 West One Hundred and Thirty-fitth street. Two months after that Mrs. Hamilton returned to find not only Mrs. Kelly gone, but, she asserts, several Articles that formerly made a part of her home, Mrs, Hamilton reported the matter to Police Headquarters and a warrant was swom out for Mrs. Kelly's arrest, The first seen or heard of Mrs. Kelly since that time was to-day, when Mra. Hamilton happened to be at Eighth avenue and One Hundred and Twenty- fifth street. She recognized the woman who had rented her apartment. Mrs. Kelly «aw Mrs. Hamilton coming her Way, but she made the discovery too late 'to effect an escape. The Central Office was notified and Detective Geers came up from Police Headquarters with the warrant which had Ween issued in the ‘Tombs Court. He took Mrs. Kelly to Headquarters, ~ GIVES'TO A CHURCH. New Jersey Congregation Will) Get 9500 if Stmilar Sum Is Ratsed, NEW BRUNSWICK, N.
