N"EW YORK, Nov. 28. (SpecFal.)
One of the most daring daylight hold
ups in the history of the city took
place today, when four men entered
the waiting automobile of George
Alexander, wealthy provision dealer.
In front of his home. 680 West End
avenue, robbed him of $40,000 in cur
rency and then ejected him from the
car and used it to make their escape.
The automobile was found later at
One Hundred and Fifth street and
Fifth avenue.
Following a confession by Rock
fort, Mr. Alexander's chauffeur, late
this afternoon, two men were arrested
and JS000 of the stolen money recov
ered.
The auto was stationary because
his chauffeur had been some distance
away when he left his home and en
tered his car, Mr. Alexander explained
to the police. The money stolen, rep
resenting a week's receipts of the
victim's poultry business in Washing
ton market, was contained in a small
traveling bag.
Police Are Notified.
The police did not learn of the
robbery until Mr. Alexander, accom
panied by his chauffeur, Thomas
Rochfort of 72 Columbus avenue, who
was said to be standing a considerable
distance away from the car until the
robbery occurred, visited the West
One Hundredth street station, where
the former breathlessly informed the
police of the holdup.
In relating the holdup to the police
Mr. Alexander said:
"I left my home at 8:30 o'clock.
T carried a bag which contained
$40,000. Soon after I entered my
automobile four men entered the car
and set upon me and under threat
of death took the bag and made their
getaway.
Mr. Alexander said that he had
cone direct to his machine. He ob
served his chauffeur standing some
distance away, but informed the po
lice ttiat no unusual significance
could be attached to the chauffeur's
position on the street when the rob
bery occurred.
Mr. Alexander's chauffeur calls for
him every morning and drives him to
Washington market, where Mr. Alex
ander conducts a business at what is
known as "section B." He deals ex
tensively in poultry and his receipts
nave been large.
Habit Are Known.
It was a habit of his to carry the
receipts home with him. Somebody
must have know of this habit and
must have then planned the robbery
and selected the front of his home as
the best possible place to hdld up the
poultry man.
Mr. Alexander, according to the po
lice, does not remember whether or
not he signaled to his chauffeur when
he entered the machine. He had just
lounged back into its cushions when
the. door on the sidewalk side was
jerked open and a man, whose face
was partially obscured by reason of
the position of his body, pointed an
automatic pistol at the poultry man's
head and said:
"Not a word, or I'll snuff your life
out." By this time another of the
bandits had opened the other door
and the three robbers got into the
machine. ;
Mr. Alexander was pushed on the
cushions and while one man held his
right arm and another his left, the
leader of the bandits took the money
bag.
The search of their victim consumed
only a few minutes. When the three
robbers who were holding Mr. Alex
ander saw that the leader had ob
tained the bag and had received the
word from him, Mr. Alexander was
pushed from his car into the street.
One of the bandits had in the mean
time climbed into the driver's seat
and at the word from the leader
threw in the clutch, starting the car
and leaving Mr. Alexander on his back
in the street.
Automobile Is Found.
The automobile was found aban
doned at 105th street and Fifth ave
nue. The machine is a seven-passenger
touring car. '
E. Rochfort, the chauffeur, was in
terrogated by Captain Thomas Walsh
ot the West Sixty-eighth street po
lice station this afternoon. Rochfort
furnished a description of the four
panuus.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 28. The group
of buildings formerly occupied by
Johns Hopkins university and about a
score of other structures in the
square bounded by Howard, Ross,
Monument and Eutaw streets were
either destroyed or wrecked by fire
early today, entailing a loss roughly
estimated at $1,000,000, of which about
7UU,U00 falls on the university.
The blaze started in McCov hall of
the Hopkins group, from an unde

lowed almost instantly and heavy ex
plosions occurred in the building from
time to time.
Nine firemen were injured, but none
seriously.
McCoy hall had been used recently
as a welfare building and previously
as the headquarters of the chemical
warfare service of the army.
Among the buildings wrecked or
damaged were Levering hall, the
gymnasium, the biological labora
tories and the Baltimore City col
lege annex.
A number of rescues were made by
firemen, including a blind girl who
was taken from a third story, and
several families.
Er. Frank J. Goodnow. president of
the university, which is now located
at Homewood, said the buildings were
covered Dy insurance.
High winds swept the sparks a half
mile away to the center of the city
and hundreds of men were sent to

Los Angeles, Cal., a lecturer on mu
si cal subjects and also an authority on
harmony in music, gave an address on
"Music in the Public Schools" and
dealt largely with the technical side
of the question.
"In Los Angeles schools the ques

as well recognize the fact that quite
a number of young people do not get

acquired by them in the grade schools.

bers by Haydn ' and Balakirev,
and Mrs. Chapman used selec-
ions by Ronald, Si guard Lie and
Tschaikowsky, the songs chosen

taste and skill several of his own dra
matic compositions, the chief and
most beautiful being Mr. Mowrey's
'Suite Orientale." Professor under
