pa-t master of the art of arson and to
bave aided in swlndling insurance corn

cendiarlsm. Rothenberg said. aeeordlng
to Pitcher. that by uslns an alarm clock
to start the flames for him the nrebug

-aho ls now under indictment for filing
false proofs of loss for money that Horo

Rothenberg had set flre to the place.
"I meets Bruno the day after the fire."

the flre last night?' I says ?**>*,' and he
i?ys: 'Wasn't lt a pippin? I done that.' "
On July 19, 1911, Pitcher was lntroduced
te Rothenberg at Brighton Beach by Koh?
ler, who described Pitcher as a man who
"etood strong" wlth the insurance com

amount of insurance Horowitz had on the
goods at No. 142 Fulton street. Pitcher
told him the Insurance amounted to about
167.000. and Kohler swore. saying that
Horowitz had told him lt was only $20,<M).

Estimate Board Gives Him
Frank Opinion of Cuts.
Pellowtag a discupflton of tha doch
quetstions at the executlve Besslon of the
Roard of Estimate yesterday, Mayor
Gaynor asked for remarks on the cuts
in the budget made by the Roard of Al
dermen, which cuta are now up to tlie
Mayor for approval or dlsapproval.
There followed aome frank talk. in
which the Mayor was made to umler
istand that the aldermen had made pretty
much of a botch of their attempt to aava
money for the taxpayers. Borough 1'res
ldent Mlller said that. in ispite of the
protestations of the aldermen that they
had cut nothlng pertainlng to isalarles
except what had been provided for new
place-, they had actually cut off the ap?
proprlatlons for men who had been
worklng ln his offlce for a long time.
Commissioner l.ederle of the Depart
ment of Health spent aome time with
the Mayor going over the cuts In his de?
partment and showing the Mayor how
essential lt was that the items taken
out should be replaced.
It ls believed to be lnevltable that the
Mayor will restore many of the ltems,
althougb he will give no Idea of his at?

The Man Who Is Helpless
Being the Text of a Talk to Men on "Better
Clothes at Less Cost?and Why"
EVEX the good nicrchant
who buys his garments from
the wholesale maker is as
the man whose hands are ticd
?he cannot help himself.
He is forced to order his goods
far ahcarl. He must guess about pat ?
terns and probable style. And
when his garments are ready to sell
in his shop he must mark hia tarlff
sales very high to qft'sef the almost
dead loss to come later on?style<
he has already botight but whicli
turn out to be poor sellers.
'Tis esscntial and therefore hon
est that he charge you more? BUT
it is not essential that you pay the
price.
For note the difference between
him and Smith Gray & Co.
A few weeks from onr personallv
nwned and opcrated tailoring prem?
ises to your back: is the average
time in the history of our garments.
Woolens are bought months after
onr friend has to buy his. The IMti
rVhitpert of Style have reached u-*.
Onr chances (costly chancc**! on
proper pattern and style forecasting
are* mueh reduotd. Insurance o>*>ts,
interest and depreciation are urttc*
tically nothing, We can even buy
woolens cheaper by later buying.
And so it gocs.
ALL our savings are YOUR
savings. MORE FOR YOUR MONE?
?very mueh more?in style, in fit
(for our cost advantages permit us
to afford the highest-priced tailors),
and in fabrics.
Nothing at our prices can ap
proach OUR Clothes for Men.
