An automobile sped through 162d

With $200
Two arT.ied men with revolvers last
night held up and robbed Harrv D.
Lloyd, of 9 Ellery Street, Brooklyn,
while he was on duty in the ticket
booth at the Pennsylvania and Livonia
avenue station of the Interborough
Rapid Transit Company. The robbers
prot. away with about $200 in cash, but
overlooked 10,000 subway tickets in the
safe.
Lloyd was alone in the station when
^he men approached, and one of them
asked for two tickets. As Lloyd shoved
them under the grating he found him?
self confronted with a revolver.
"We mean business," said one of the
men. "Give us the keys, or we'll blow ,
yer face off."
One of the men reached over the net?
ting and unlocked the door, then the two
entered the oifice and ordered Lloyd to
lie down on the floor. They went
through his pockets, found the key to ;
the safe, and opened it. From one of
the compartments they took $]-l;">. Then
they scooped up about $50 from the sill ;
by the wicket.
With a warning to stay where he war,
and keep quiet, the men ran downstairs
to the Btreet.

Deer Hunt in Fifth Ave* Ends
When Mike Runs Out ofr Gas''
Central Park Buck, W?\o Led 4 Does on Moonlight
Venture, Outstrips Pursuit Through Traffic Jana
Until Wind Fails and Patrolman Brings It Down
Modern inventions were used in one
of the oldest of sports yesterday when
reindeer wero hunted through Central
Park and down Fifth Avenue with the
aid of automobiles and motorcycles.
At midnight Wednesday four does?
Fannie, Tillie, Angelina and Flossie
were taken out of the Central Park
paddock by Red Mike, a four-year-old
buck, to admire the mackerel moon.
Shortly after their departure they were
missed by Thomas Mitchell, night
watchman of the zoo, and tho aid of
forty pntrolmen attached to the Ar
senal Station was enlisted in rounding
them up.
Ked Mike evidently experienced diffi?
culty in keeping the attention of his
wards centered. Tillie saw the lake
for the i?rst time in her young life, and
beat it for a swim. She was sighted as
she disported herself in the crystal
pools by Patrolman McKenna, who
swam after her and fetched her home.
Fannie spotted a mooning young
couple, and started to investigate. They
appealed to a motorcycle policemen to
protect their tryst, and Fannie was
captured and put to bed.
Ang'.-lina was taken by a ruse. A
patrolman, who modestly refused his
name, but who declared that he knew
the ways of the forest crentures, ar?
ranged his fellow-officers 'in a circle,
sighed loudly and affectionately, and
pounced upon the dear little thing
when it came trustingly forward.
Flossie gave no trouble. Sho came
forward and gave herself up upon
orders from the police.
Red Mike in the mean while had told
his pursuers to see Duncan Maclnness
and hoofed it. From midnight till 10
o'clock in the morning he managed to
evade imswering questions by? adroit
absence. Then he was spotted, to the
horror o* the park policemen, walking
on the grass near Seventy-ninth Street.
The hunt centered about that point.
Ked Mike streaked it for Fifth Avenue
and for the next several minutes min?
gled with the scions of the rich as they
took their morning constitutional be?
hind chauffeurs.
The common people riding down the
avenue in taxis and busses felt the
blood of their hunting ancestors run
j hot, and suddenly the traffic turned in
[ one direction?that taken b yRed Mike.
Fearing the humiliation of being
struck by a Ford-coming in the op?
posite direction?Mike decided to try
Central Park West, where traffic runs
ono way4?>y police regulation. Bound?
ing through the park, he crossed the
highway, the chase, headed by Keeper
Coyle, in keen pursuit.
Coylo commandeered a fast-moving
vehicle and attempted to use a lariat
as Red Mike gained the fair way. Wit?
nesses declare that he missed hi?
quarry by only forty feet?or yards.
Red Mike was disgusted at the intro
! duction of hemp in the chase and appar
! ently decided that, after all, Fifth Avc
! nue was a better sporting proposition.
| There Patrolman Rockett recognized
i the animal by piecing together a series
of kaleidoscopic views which he gained
as it passed him.
Leaping to the running board of a
fast roadster, Rockett took the lead in
the chase. For five blocks that led
into the park the deer showed the ma?
chine his heels.
Then, having covered ten miles in a
half hour, his pace slowed. The car
drew alongside. Patrolman Rockett \
didn't know much about deer, but he I
had been taught a lot about runaway
horses, so he poised himself and took |
a header at the animal.
He landed, and the two went over in
; a heap. It was doubtful even then if
| Red Mike was going to be taken be
I fore an investigating committee to re
' late how he had escaped from the
| paddock. He struggled so valiantly
that it appeared that after all Duncan
Madness might have to take the stand.
But the automobilist lent the patrol?
man a hand, and between them Red I
Mike was thrown, hog-tied and returned
1 to his paddock.
Experts Deride
Peak and Pigeon
In Heller Mystery ?
-.
No Mt. Hoodoo, No Bird
Ever Made Such a Flight,
They Insist; Another Car?
rier Lands on Century
With one exception yesterday pigeon
fanciers rejected the theory that the
famished carrier which fluttered down
to Broadway, Wednesday night, in the
vicinity of a Columbus Circle restau?
rant, had made a 2,000-mile flight from
Hoodoo Peak, W'yoming, in four days,
with a message of distress from Pro?
fessor Edmund Heller. The one excep?
tion was Dan Singer, who began wiring
folks in Wyoming to hunt for Pro?
fessor Heller as soon as he received
the message purporting to be from his
friend.
After fifteen tours around the world
it is the professor's boast that geog?
raphy is his long suit, and his other
friends ridicule the idea that ho let
loose one of his prize pigeons in an
appeal for a relief expedition. At the
American Musuem of Natural History
they even doubt the existence of any
"Hoodoo Mountains," although Mr.
Singer is emphatic in insisting that
there is a Hoodoo Peak and that he
know;- it well.
"It is live miles southeast of the Yel?
lowstone Park boundary," Mr. Singer
sai:! last night at the Belleclaire Hotel.
"I know the ground thoroughly and I
had told Heller of photographing wild
sheep on the Hoodoo. I should not be
at all surprised if he went there to see
the sheep."
Mr. Singer said the message was any
thir.k but a joke. He expressed him?
self as anxious for the safety of his
friend. No word has been received from
Ned Frost, a guide living at Cody, whe
was asked by Singer to go to the reliel
ni Heller, nor has any message com<
froiu Mrs. Heller, who is believed to b<
in California.
Dispatches from the West indicat?
that officials of Yellowstone Park an
skeptical of the report that Professor i
Heller is in difficulties. They declare j
that he has been in the park since last j
Saturday, collecting mnterial for a
lecture tour, and that he is thoroughly
at home there.
Doubt is thrown on the story from
the fact that the pigeon is presumed
to have traveled nearly 2,000 miles. Ex?
perts at tho Museum, said yesterday,
that ?his was an impossible feat.
Professor Heller went We3t to do
research work for Charles C. Adams,
head of the Roosevelt Wild Life, For?
est and Experiment Station of New
York at Syracuse University. Mr.
Adams is quoted as saying that the i
story is a hoax on Heller and tha? it is !
likely the bird was let loose in New !
York./
The theory that a hoax was being I
perpetrated was strengthened by the ''
arrival on the Century Roof last night
of another pigeon. It wa3 not an am- '
bassador, like the bird alleged to have
come from Yellowstone Park, but it ?
carried an identification disk marked !

Bedtime Stories
Mr. Blacksnake Is Made Uncomfortable
By Thornton W. Burgess
As one that's bashful, I prefer
W her'er I go to make no stir.
?Mr. Blacksnake.
Over in the garden two excited
voices suddenly broke cut. They were |
not loud voices. In fact, they were
rather soft voices. But there was no
mistaking that the owners of those
voices wore two very excited small
persons.
"Listen!" cried Mr. Wren to Peter
Rabbit, just as if Peter wasn't listen?
ing with both his long ears. "I don't
think you will need to show us where ?
Mr. Blacksnake is. Oh Jenny! Jenny i
Wren! Mr. and Mrs. Chippy have;

Jenny Wren, who had just returned

did Scrappc r.

There was nothing to fear from any

Hauls Body to Boulevard j
Victim Called Author ofi
Black Hand Letters Whoj
Came to Demand Money
Within a few hours after the body
of James Morabello was found, bearing I
many knife wounds, on Tiffany Boule- j
vard, Newark, yesterday, the police of |
? that city had arrested John Cricola. '.
of 120 Summit Street, Newark, as his '
assailant and, they said, had obtained:
a confession from him.
According to the statement Cricola j
is said to have made, he and his mother,
Mrs. Margaret Cricola, bad lived in i
fear of Morabello for months, believ?
ing him to be a member of a black l
hand gang and the author of threaten- i
ing letters they had received.
Cricola is said to have told the police j
that Morabello called at his home about
1 p. m. Wednesday and that he watched
the house from a restaurant across ?
the street to see if his mother needed
help. About 9 p. m., he said, his ?
mother screamed and he ran into the j
house.
Tells of Mother's Struggles
He found his mother struggling with
Morabello, he said, who was lunging
at her with a knife and demanding
$500. . j
'?1 was crazy," Detective Captain
Frank Brex quotes his prisoner as say
ing. "I picked up an iron window
weight and hit Jim in the head with it
a good many times. I hit him so many ;
times with it that I can't tell you how
many.
"I knocked him down, but he kept j
getting up again and grabbed a carv?
ing knife from the table. I kept hit- j
ting him, but he was a devil and kept
at me with the knife. Then I saw him ;
reaching for a razor that I knew he j
carripd and I ran to a drawer and got j
a sharp file that I kept there.
"I stabbed him with the file. Then
I grabbed the carving knife and stabbed ]
him with that. We both fell to the ?
floor and I yelled for the police. Two
neighbors came in and pulled Jim off I
me."
After that, according to the police, :
Cricola told of getting a friend to help ,
him wrap the body in blankets and
take it in an automobile to Tiffany I
Boulevard, where they pulled it out
"feet first" and left it in the street.
Woman Traced to Hospital
When tho body was found after day- !
break, Cricola's business card and a
pawnticket bearing his name were dis- !
covered in the pockets. At about the ;
j same time the police were informed .
| that Cricola's mother had gone to City ?
I Hospital to have a severe knife wound ;
i on her left hand treated.
Detectives were sent to Cricola's '
; home, where it is said they found him;
'. scrubbing the floor. He took them to .
j the place where lie had thrown away ?
I some of his clothing which bore signs ?
i of the struggle and the package was
; recovered, as was the handle of the
i tile, the blado of which was betweerj .
I Morabello's ribs.
Detective Fiaschetti, who is in charge ;
; of the investigation of Camorra kill- \
i ings in this city, sent a detective to :
I Newark last night to get Morabella's
