Whoever He Is, He Went Free In Police Court, with a Companion _ Who Helped Him “Flip” Pedes- jans on the Street. Tt was stated positively by Mr. Roose- velt Schuyler, of No. 9 Pearl street, this afternoon that the young man who was arrested jast night for pitting Carlos Lavi, a fencing master, with a wet towel while walking along Broadway, was not Frederick Roosevelt Scovel, a Yale stu- dent and a cousin of President Roose- velt, as the young man alleged, Mr. Schuyler said that he got a letter to-day from Scovel, written yesterday fn Washington, and that the young man hd been there for several days Young “Scovel” or whoover he wi Charles Powers, another. alleged Yala » and Leyi, were all arraigned In Jefferson Market Court this morning charged with fehting in the street. They had been bailed out at 4 o'clock fatter having been locked up four hours. "Patrolman Frost was the complainant, but he didn’t complain very hard. In fact, he seemed sorry that he had ever complained at all. He was quite anx- Jous that they should ali be discharged. “{'m the complainant, Your Honor," he said to Magistrate Crane, “but they look very respectable and I guess they didn't mean any harm." Mark Alter, a police lawyer, who is very proud of the fact that President Roosevelt attended his wedding when the President was Pollce Commissioner, was there to defend the young men, and he also put in a good word for them. “What have you got to say about this?” the Magistrate asked young Roosevelt Scovel. “Ic's all right what the policeman says," remarked the youns man. “No, it ien't all right,” said the Mag- istrate. “You shouldn't be fighting sabout the streets at night, but I'll dis- eharge you all.’ The trouble arose after a celebration Of the Yale football season at the Yale ‘Club last night. Scovel and Powers, who Rad deen drinking, went out to ase the ‘Tenderloin. Arming themselves with wet Napkins taken from a Broadway reatau- rant, they began slapping passersby, Sig. Carlos Alberto Levi was one of these. He is a dapper little gentle- man, and as he had attended the opera he wore a top hat and an enormous fur-lined overcoat. ‘With one hand he twirled a cane and with the other caressed his gilstening Military mustache, The students fell on him with enthusiasm and wet nap- Kins resounded upon his silk tile, The Maestro fell back into fencinx position @nd played carte and tlerce with good effeot upon their ribs until they closed Mn and rushed him.

The high wind and heavy rain storms that have been sweeping along the win- ter track of the ocean liners began about Nov. %. Every ship coming this way from the other side ran into the gales. The winds came mostly from the northwest, although at times shift- ing suddenly to the southwest. They Kicked up very big sens. For days, even on the big liners, passengers were locked below, while huge waves ewept the decks and even the bridge and funnels, tossing the Mnest of them about Uke chips of wood Worst She Ever Had, Alone of the big fellows due to-day, the White Star liner Georgie reached port, after the worst voyage she he had {n the eight years of her travels between New York and Liverpool. The Georgie reached her pler at 9.20 o'clock this morning, It took her thir- teen days ang seventeen hours to make the trip. Taking the time of her last voyage of nine days, twenty-one hours and threa minutes, the Georgic was de- layed approximately threa days by the storms.

A high sea swept over her continually and every one tn the cabins and steerage was kept be- low. Most of them were unable to leave thelr berths. Squalls and wind continue out of th northwest day and night. ‘The hard jt day was on Nov. 2, when the wind raised a sea that rolled up waves fifty fect high. All the hatches were nailed down and more than one seaman had a narrow escape from death, The storms continued until this morn- ing. Yesterday the Georgie ran Into the small blizzard that hit New York early in the morning. Deaths and accidents marked the pas- sage of the Allan line steamer Lauren- tlan, which arrived to-day. The Laurentian left Glasgow on Nov. 2. The voyage was one continual fight Against storms and head seas, Capt.
