Brown, who was standing at the corner of

97th st. and Sixth-av and told him that a

robber had gone into the saloon. The po-

Weber refused to give his address.

uniform was arrested for attempting to

burglarize Walter White's home, 16 West

62nd st. at about two o'clock last night.

He gave his name as Julius Woll and his

address as 129 23rd ave.

The caretaker at Walter White's said

he was awakened at 1 o'clock by the noise

of bureau drawers opening and he at once

phoned to the station. An officer came

and found the would-be burglar under the

owed four weeks board; also that he had

not been there for two weeks. Inquiry

proved that he was out regularly until

three or four in the morning.
