The prisoners said they were Ha J. McEwen, 26 years old, of 1,669 Third avenue, an employe of the express company, and John Par- ker, blacksmith, 31 years old, of 592 West Forty-eighth street. Magistrate Mancuso held each in $25,000 bail for further examination. Maurice Griffin, of 31 Commerce street, driver of the express wagon, who was attacked by four or five men when he resisted their move to loot the truck, in Bellevue hospital with a fractured skull and other injuries. He was beaten and dragged from his seat, he told the police, and was fin- ally made senseless by chloroform, some of which got into his throat in the struggle and burned and pois- oned him. Two of the robbers placed him in an automobile that had fol- lowed the truck from the Twenty- sixth street branch. At Forty-seventh street and Tenth avenue Griffin was thrown from the speeding car when he revived from the effects of the drug and again fought the thieves. Soon after the attack and robbery McEwen, one of the prisoners ar- raigned, who was a helper on Grif- fin's truck, reported the robbery at the Beach street station. Detective Lahey kept him under surveillance and when Griffin denied McEwen's assertion that he had also been seized by the robbers, he was ques- tioned. ILahey said McEwen finally confessed to complicity in the express robbery plot. Following the examination of Mec. Ewen at the station the police went to 512 West Forty-eighth street, a stable, where they found the entire ninety stolen express packages. Par- ker was arrestad there.

About two scores of women fell from the ranks when they became faint and had to be helped away by police- men. At one time there were as many as a dozen being attended at the upper end of the pier.
