SAW MANNING HOLD HANDS WITH SISTER 0’Brien Testifies in Breach ol Promise Suit for Million [ New York, June 16.—Justice Crop- sey in" the Queens county supreme court held both a day and night ses- sion yesterday in an effort to bring to a conclusion the trial of the suit of Miss Honora May O’Brien, 28 years old, agajnst John B. Manning, the 84-year-old Wall Street broker, for $1,000,000 for his failure to marry her. Mrs. Margaret Cohalan, wife of Justice Daniel F, Cohalan of the New York county supreme court, was the first witness of the day. She proved a good witness for Miss O’'Brien, not- withstanding the fact that'she said she was related to both Miss O’Brien and Manning. Miss O’Brien is a second cousin of Mrs. Cohalan on - her mother’s side, while Mr. Manning is a second cousin on her father’s side. She testified that about last Thanks- giving Day Mr. Manning telephoned to her and asked the house address of Miss O’Brien and that as soon as she could get it she gave it to Mr. Manning’s secretary. James O’Brien, brother of the plaintiff, was on the stand for more than three hours. He strengthenéd his sister’s case materially on the direct examination, but under Martin W. Littleton’s cross-examination he for the first time admitted that he had gone to a lawyer's office on the day following Mr, Manning’s alleged proposal to his sister and sought ad- vice concerning the drawing up of a Pprenuptial agreement for the settle- ment of money on his sister, Mr. O'Brien testified that the pro- posal. of marriage to his sister was made on the night of December 13, when he and his sister had been in- vited to Mannihg’s house for dinner. “I was called into the library,” tes- tified Mr. O’Brien, “and there I found Manning holding my sister’'s hand. He sald that he had asked May to marry him and she wanted to, consult me about it. I told him that his family might object. He replied that he did not care if they dld object. He was a rich man, and one of his sons was a millionaire, and he could pro- vide for all of his family as well as for my sister. -1 then told her that I did not care what she did, as she was the most concerned.” Mr. O'Brien said that there was much commotion im the Manning house when the family learned that- Mr. Mahning was to get married. -~ S 3 iz “Mary Manning,” ‘he. testified, ‘‘ran around the house and she shouted at her father, ‘You old fool’ Dr. John Manning said to his father: ‘You dis- graced us ce and you will do 1t Mr. O’Brien testified that when his sister informed him that Mr. Manning had called her up and told her that the rush for the doors the marriage was abandoned, he went LD, SATURDAY, JUNE 16, 1017. to his sister’s apartment and found | - her very much “‘broken up and ner- vous, He then called Mr. Manning on the telephone, he testified, and said to him: *Is it true that there is to be no marriage?” “It's all off,” Mr. Manning replied, according to the witnéss. “My family has objected and I will be disgraced for life.” ! The witness testified that he then said to Mr. Manning: “You can’t dis- grace my sister and I will take you to court.”” To this he testified that Mr. Manning replied: ‘“You can take me to court. I have money enough to buy the courts.” Mr, O'Brien admitted that when the German submarine U-53 came into Newport harbor several montha ago he was the man who preserited a flag at the Irish Republic.to the Geérman commander, which the commander placed aft alongside the German flag. RIOTING FOLLOVS SLACKER ROUNI-UP Crowd Angerod When Mitiamen Display Bayonets New York, June 18.—Rioting of thousands of persons, at anti-con- scription meetings last night marked the efforts of the police and soldiers to round up conseription slackers, giving to the draft situation the most sinister tihge it has taken in New York city. Nearly 200 men wére de- tained at two meetings last night because they couldn’t show registra- tion cards. While the largest num- ber—about 160—were detained at a meeting of the socialists of the Twen- ty-sixth assembly district at the New York Star Casino, 107 street and. Park avenue, it was within and witn- out Arlington Place that the greatest trouble occurred. The meeting was rather tame, when it was noticed that soldiers, ‘mem- bers of the' Eighth Coast Artillery, were demanding cards of the men who were going out one by one or in pairs from the hail, which was crowded almost to suffocation. This attracted the. comment of the speak- ers and more persons started to leava. About thirty ymen who couldn’t show cards had beén pushed into a side room, when as if by one impulse the sudience started to leave. The fifty or more soldiers tried in vain to stem the tide. ‘But they couldn’t stop the 2,000 persons inside who hit the sol- diers at the door in flying wedges and threw themselves outside, where 10,- 000 persons were gathered, hissing and cursing the soldiers. A hundred -patrolmen, under In- spector O’Brien, allowed the audience to go as the best solution of a prob- lem growing momentarily more dan- gerous. The persons in the hall rushed to fire escapes and windows, but théy were guarded, and all went through the front doofs, tumbling down the flight of stairs to the street door. A l¢ne of policemen and home defense guards was formed to a side entrance, and twenty of the detained men were taken to the East Fifth street police station. In the meantime the situation about the hall grew worse. Seeming- ly without the proper leadership, the soldiers, most of whom were young, undertook to disperse a number of street meetings in progress. They broke up oné gathering only to have another form nearby. For self-pro- tection they formed into a squad and marched up and down Second avenue while the crowed booed them. A hundred men would cro in up- on the squad when the soldiers would turn about and drawing their bay- onets disperse the pursuers. The po- lice_appeared to regard the soldiers as somewhat overzealous and devoted themselves to trying to persuade the people to go home and let the matter rest. But the crowds would not go home. They were thoroughly roused to a feeling of resentment against the soldiers and the screams of infuriated women did much to fan the ugly spirit of the gatherings. The meeting was held under the au- spices of the people’s council for de- mocracy and peace. The police had taken especial pains to avoid dis- order and there were a large number of detectives and police within the hall. A. R. Gold called the meeting to order and presented the Rev. Lindly dney, Australia, who told how the conscription law was beaten in his.country and how pained he was to find conscription in effect in “free America.”. Miss Rebecca Shelley, pacifist, declared that ‘*‘our congress does not represent the will of the people.” g Anna Levine spoke in Yiddish and lamented the arrest of Emma Gold- man. She said the news would reach the pacifists of Russia and encourage them to ‘greater efforts. There were yet other speakers when the rush for the doors started. Gordon'tried to speak again and said that the volun- teers rajsed in Australia had; in large part, entered the army because they were persecuted by ‘“‘crasy crack- brained girls who sent them white feathers.” Gold offered a resolution condemning conscription, which the crowd roared its approval of. ' Then became so great that the officlal meeting was abandoned. / Outside the police had two auto- mobiles with searchlights that played upon the crowd and seemed to help to awe the disorderly-inclined for a while, until the soldiers showed their bayonets. Then there was an angry rush which brough police sticks into play and resulted in many bruised heads and bloody noses, WILL SEND AMBULANCE UNIT..

Pinch Back Suits for Men and Young Men $11.98 to $25.00. e aa———————— Henry Clews. - Weekly Lettey (Bpecial to The Herald.) New York, June 16.—The Liberty ‘Lean proved a gratifying success, it being oversubscribed, fully one-half having been raised in New York. One of the most pleasing features was that over two million subscribers are reported to have taken part, which g double the number attracted to the first loans of either Great Britain or Germany. Evidently there is no lack of patriotism in the country. The cause of the hesitation to freely sub- scribe at the start was that the mass of people in the United States did not then fully appreciate the vital issues at stake. They have only slowly real- ized that back of all, surface and minor issues stands one supreme fact; that the struggle is pre-eminently to preserve - democracy against autoca- cy; that the freedom ‘won in 1776 was gravely menaced, and that self-pro- tection really forced us into the con- test; not to mention the dictates of humanity and our fundamental beliefs in liberty and on advanced civilization. ‘We have been so isolated from Euro- pean affairs, so wrapped up in our own interests, so free from injury or pain, so confident of our safety, so satisfied with our own progress and 80 pleased with war profits that super- human efforts were necessary to over- come the solid inertia which made it difficult to turn the rising spirit of patriotism into positive action. This fact was clearly demonstrated by ear- ler enthusiasm displayed in the sea- board cities, which are naturally in closer touch with Europe and more sensitive to its movements than the intérior; albeit the latter sometimes overlooks to what an extent it is de- pendent upon Europe as a market for its products. Time, however, will work great changes in this respect, especial- ly when doings of thg American army and navy on the other side begin to awaken latent enthusiasm. President Wilson’s eloquent Flag Day address was an effective appeal to American patriotism and self-interest that will have & wide and beneficial effect. Within & few months the new spirit will have swept across the continent, welding the whole country together in its determination to push the strusggle with all possible vigor to a victori- ous conclusion. There has been some little criti- cism as to the method of placing the loan. It may have been that political expediency compelled flotation in the manner adopted, rather than the usual method of raising funds:fol- lowed by nations at war. The loan wes certainly’ immensely helped: by our New York bankers and banking ‘institutions, which it has been good politics to abuse for years; but who have always patriotically stepped into the breach when a crisis came, especially by now handling subscrip- tions free of expense, and subscribing very heavily on their own account and pushing the, loan at a loss to themselves, which should -really have fallen upon the government as a necessary part of the expense of issue. However, it was highly de- sirable that this loan should. be scat- tered as widely as possible; for every owner of a bond, however small, be- comes an investor in his country; he has a closer interest in its welfare and unconsciausly becomes a more responsible citizen the moment he subscribed. - Operations connected with the loan do npt threaten any serious distur- bance to the money market, further than a general firmness of rates. Other heavy calls are in prospect, but the strain will be relieved by partial payments, by keeping the funds in banks as far as possible and by re- discounting loans through the reserve banks. Moreaver, practically the whole of the loan will be spent in the United States for war purposes, creating new activity in all munition industriies. Demands upon the money market during the remainder of June promise to be quite heavy. Payments for the new loan will ag- gregate $400,000,000 before the first of July. Dividend disbursements on the same date are estimated at over $300,000,000 the largest on record. The federal income tax payments must also be taken into consideration, and the city of New York is likely to come into the market as a consider- able borrower. new applications for capital appear to be diminishing, except in the direc- ‘tion of supplying munitions, building of ships and development of our mineral industries. The applications of foreign.governments are also like- ly to decline, since this government will use its credit to assist the Allies and issue its own bond in exchange for theirs. The war makes slow and sorrowful progress. Nevertheless, the drift s in the right direction and’' the outlook encouraging. General Pershing ar- rived safely on the other side, and. before very long American soldiers will be at the front, while the Ameri- can fleet is already on hand aiding in conquering the mad ambitions which set the world on fire. The ' British secured notable successes on the western front, especially the capture of the Messines-Wytschaete Ridge, with-heavy losses to the enemy.
