Somebody threw a match or # cigarette butt into a packing case in front of No, 227 Mercer Stregt at 1 o'clock this afternoon and set fire to @ pile of excelsior, Somebody else ran out of the building with a pail of water and extinguished the blaze. But, in the mean time, industrious citizens had turned in fire alarms from Broadway and Great Jones Street, Broadway and Bleecker Street and Bleecker and Greene Streets. In rsponse thereto, Deputy Chief, Lang- ford, two battalion chiefs, four high- pressure engine companies, two trucks, water tower and two automo- bile fire patrol trucks Ipvaded the neighborhood. ‘This occurred at a time when traffic in the vicinity was thickest and the situation we »mplicated by the fact that Broadway ts badly torn up by subway we A relay of traffic policeman wor like beavers for half,an hour after the fire apparatus left to get things moving again on Bre v and across town, tae investigation on behalf of commission, “1 want to see Sheriff Houghton,” tne he said, “and to receive from him the official ‘list of the deputy sheriffs on duty at the chemical works.

Gil} intimated been informed ah But She Runs Sternwise In- stead of Straightwise, Soon Luffing on Broadway, A deep-sea sailor was shipwrecked on the shoals of Broadway at two bells this morning, and was chucked Into the boohy hatch at the West Side Police Court in irons, First they thought he had too much rum aboard and then they thought the lights of Broadway had made him crazy. Now they don't know what to do about him, He is Eugene Cuccusuno, off the Austrian - American liner Martha Washington, He was cruizing around the capes near Broadway and Fifty- first Street when he spied a taxicab unmoored and her engines snorting and straining in front of a garage. He climbed aboard and took the helm. He must have stepped on something vital, for the vessel shot backward, There was a wild cry of a sailor in distress and Henry Einwohner of No, 1001 Kelly Street, the Bronx, a peace loving chauffeur, stuck his head out of the garage where he had gone to get some gasoline. He saw his taxi shooting backward down Broadway. The chauffeur ran into the etreet, shouting and waving his arma, The taxi careened and performed a sharp left oblique. Then it swerved and started to box the compass, buza- bed around in a circle, Autos and rolley cars stopped, and the deep sea By had the choppy sea all to him- self, Policeman Fleming came run- ning up, but just then the taxi did another backward slide and almost ran over the cop. The latter jumped for his life and tried to seize the gun- wales, But the navigator caught wildly at a lever and the tax! shot forward. It sped up the street at a sixteen-knot gait, swerving and sliding and doing unexpected gymnastics, The cop and the chauffeur In wild pursuit finally came alongside and each leaped to the running board on opposite sides. The chauffeur wrenched the wheel from the frightened sailor's grasp and brought the boat to a stop. The cop dragged Eugene out of the seat and rushed him up the gang-plank of a patrol wagon that steamed up just then. : They wok him to the quarterdeck in the West Side Court this morning and the Magisterial skipper looked him over, Policeman Fleming testi- fied that Hugene was not Intoxicated ‘decided he didn’t act like a nut and switched the charge back to dis- orderly conduct.

As soon as an agent of the Chil- dren's Society discovered this fact to-day in the records of the institu- tion to which the abandoned baby had been taken, Superintendent Ernest Coulter of the Society, con- ferred with District Attorney Per- king and was by him advised to lodge a criminal charge against the Haef- fners, father and mother alike, in the Yorkville Court. Mr. Coulter immediately caused the arrest of the Haeffners and they were arraigned in the Yorkville Court on the charge of abandonment. Haeffper protested violently against his arrest, saying he had been prom- ised immunity from prosecution when he came forward yesterday and claimed as his own the two children, Richard and Jimmie, whom the Haeffners left in front of Gimbel's store on Saturday afternoon, Super- intendent Coulter answered that the consistent falsifying done by Haeff- ner and his wife had relieved the but unquestionably was guilty of dis- | orderly conduct, “Disorderly © exclaimed the Magistrate, “why, that tar is{ crazy!" So they charged the deep sea sallor with Insanity, but when he waa brought back again the Magistrate Children’s Society from responsibility for the promise given. Both the Haeffners, Frederick and Jeanette, pleaded gullty to the charge of abandonment when arraigned be- fore Magistrate Freschi in Yorkville Court and went to cells in default of the $5,000 ball apiece.
