These are the reasons: The law of supply and demand ig stifled to death.

SCARED BY SCREAMS, Attempt at Holdup Made in Office at Avenue A and East 23d Street. Another attempted robbery about which the police had been silent was reported to-day when Mra, Etta Frost, office manager of the Commer- cial Delivery Company at Avenue A and Fast 23d Street, told all absitt the masked men she surprised on the stairway at 12.50 o'clock on Wednes- day afternoon, Wednesday is the Commercial De- livery Company's pay day, and Mra. Frost the paymaster, Sometimes in the noon hour Mrs, Frost, ‘having placed each man’s share in an en- velope, sits at a table in the front office and pays off. On Wednesday last at the hour stated Mrs. Frost was alone in a rear room on the second floor. The only way to get to that floor is by means of a narrow stairway leading from the big garage which occupies the entire street floor, On this garage floor were thirty men, employees of the delivery company and others, “I was just stepping out of the rear room,” Mrs. Frost said to-day, “when at the head of the stairway six or seven feet away I saw a man with a mask over his face. It looked like @ handkerchief. “L screamed, of course, and with all those men below the robber naturally took flight. I followed him a few steps and saw another masked man on the stairway back of him. One of them fired a single shot which came within a foot of me and then both ran. “Men on the garage floor tell me that when the masked men ran out they observed that a third member of the gang was posted at the street entrance, while the fourth sat at the wheel of a Ford ott in the street. They were all set for a quich get-a- way, for the engine was running, “We've got men down stairs as brave as any in New York and two of them chased after the masked men as far as the car when they found themselves looking into a re- volver and heard the man with the gun say that he would ‘let go’ if they were followed further, “There was a police office: not far away who saw the crowd that gath- ered in the neighborhood and came over to investigate, He was given the details from start to finish but we have heard nothing since. “I forgot to say,” added Mra, Frost, “that the payroll money hadn't ar- rived on Wednesday, How did The Evening World hear about the case, anyhow?"
