To investigate the conditions to which Commissioner Greene called attention in a letter to Bridge Commissioner Lin- @enthal Saturday a womtan reporter for The Evening World made three trial trips on the Bridge cars, Gen, Greene wrote that he had received many eomplaints concerning the jam at the Bridge, and asked the Bridge Commis- stoner if he could make any suggestions for better handling of the crowds. In reeking to judge these conditions and to ascertain if the stories of row- dylem and disgraceful crowding and Pushing were true the reporter found that there had been no exaggeration in the most highly colored reports. On Half-Hour Trips. At 5.80, at 6 and at 630 o'clock the Feporter entered the bridge promenade with the hordes of home-going Brook- lynites and fought her way for a chance to be carried over the bridg At 530 it was bad, at 6 it was ter- rible, and at 630 (t was almost unen- durable. When you make the rush up the @tairs for the bridge cars it Is a mat- ter of grave consideration whether you are going to hold your own or not, but when the platform is reached the yes) trouble begins. age in Ru @aturday night the crowd became al- (most savage in the rush for seats, Wo- ten were pushed aside, and shoved and Sostled by crowds of men and boys, whose flippant remarks only tended to fntensify the discomforts of bridge tramic, At the rear end of the last car the reporter, in endeavoring to enter the ear, was so roughly handled that a bundle of evening papers wete torn from her hands and carried somewhere in the crowd and trampled underfoot. ‘ainly endeavoring to hold her own, the| reporter was shoved and pulled, twisted and turned, till she was crowd- @4 into a space scatcely large enough to breathe in near the door. Then be- gan the work of shutting the gate. The guard braced himself with his hands @gainst the riders of the car and gate, and the jamming which ensued was enough to make every woman in the @rowd wish she was any place on earth But in a dridge car. When the big rush for the cars is made, and there is a crowd ready be- fore the car pulls tn, women were falrly knocked right and left by young men and boys, who showed no respect whatever for sex or age. The reporter was unable to secure a @eat on any of the three trips across the bridge, but men and boys who @tood back of her when the car came (1 managed by shoving and pushing to secure, seats for themselves. I nthe crush @ woman and her daugh- ter, who were patiently endeavoring to conceal thelr discomfort at the savage actions of the young men and boys, who lined up and pushed thelr way through the. crowd, were separated. The daughter was borne ahead by the crowd and the mother was left on the platform, while the gate slammed to in ber face. Loses Her Medicine, A tired-looking woman with a baby tn her arms was a pitiful victim. Trying hard to protect her child ghe stood her ground as well as she coulll until the gates were opened and & crowd of boys and men pushing with elbows and hands tumbled her aside. ‘As she was pushed toward the car a bottle of ,medi she carried in her hands knocked from her grasp and fell between the car and platform, The ‘woman was unable to enter the car at}, all, teing completely pushed aside by the jostling men, whosg remarks of "Get out of the way," “Make way for the push,” were characteristic of their actions, } In the car with The World reporter three women were shoved aside by as many boys and seats taken right pefor them. One old lady and a weary-looking companion were forced to stand while the young men sat down, ‘At 620 o'clock the stream of human- ity surging to the bridge cars {s a solld mass, and though a train carrying 500 passengers 1s scheduled for every Mitty seconds the jamming 1s not relieved, Co!

He had killed himself by turning on the gas, ‘Two Families Approved. ‘Three years ago pretty Rose Moebus! and Edward Born were lovers. Both familles approved of the match, and the marriage of the two was expected. | ‘The young lovers quarrelled. Born became despondent, and left his sweet-| heart's side with the vow that he would go away where he would no longer bother her. 5 He disappeared completely, and for days the Morgue, Bellevue and all the hospitals were searched for a trace of the missing man. «At last he was lo-! cated wearing the army blug at Fort Slocum. “1 just couldn't help {t," explained! the young man to Henry Moebus,.

Friends of the Rey. Carroll Birck, Protestant Episcopal clergyman, for- merly of South Brooklyn, and Miss Ger- trude Wills, of No, 32 Park place, Brooklyn, will be no less surprised by the announcement of thelr secret wed- ding than by the startling cause which led to the haste and privacy. ‘The threats of an elderly married man who bad conceived a violent attachment for Miss Willis leq to the young couple's anticipating the formal church wedding which was to have taken place next fa! The wedding was celebrated in the face of threats from this man against the Ufe of Mr. Birck and his bride, as well ax threats to ruin the families of both in case the wedding would take place. The courtship between Mr. Birck and Miss Willis began when they were chil- dren. Their families formerly lived within a few doors of each other in Second place, not far from Court street. When Mr. Birck went West to complete his studies for the ministry he carried with him a promise from Miss Willis to become his wife after he had been or- dained and assigned a parish. Families Prominent, The families of the young people are prominent in Breoklyn. The father of the bridegroom is a retired merchant, whose place of business was in Beaver street, Manhattan. He lives with his wife and two daughters in a handsome apartment at No, 1458 Bedford avenue. ‘The bride's mother is the widow or a wealthy Wall street broker. Mr. Birck was ordained in Kansas a few months ago and was assigned to the rectorship of a church in Manhat- tan, Kan. He was looking forward to |the time when he could introduce his bride to his parishioners when he learned that many members of his flock were receiving anonymous letters from the East attacking his character. He learned, too, that his prospective bride and her family were being similarly an- noyed. Birck hurried East, only to learn that the person who had been causing all the annoyance was known to both families, and that he had made threats to kill! both him and Miss Willis and ruin thelr families If the marriage were permitted. Mr. Birck insisted that the marriage taek place at once. It was arranged with the utmost secrecy, so that the ‘author of the threat should get no word of It. Rev. Richard Pope, of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, married the young people at the Willis residence tn the presence of their immediate relatives on Wednesday last, and they left the same evening for Manhattan, Kan, His Wife Ignorant “I fear even now,"’ said Mrs. Willis, the bride's mother, “that this man will do them harm, for he ha threatened to go to Kansas and kill my daughter it she married. I will not tell you his name, but he is a man of means, with a yi who is connected with one of the best families on Brooklyn Heights. She td he would force me to give up every dollar I have.” Mrs. Birck, the mother of the bride- groom, Who was present, sald: “We shall soon all be ill if this sus- pense is not oded. We are constantly in dread. This man came to my home and orderel me to forbid the wedding. He mado threats to kill. He told me that some time the way might be clear for him to marry Gertrude himself.” ‘STABBED HER WITH | A SHARP NEEDLE Young Man Is Arrested for Giving Woman a Hypodermic Shot as She Passed Him in the Street. SHE YELLED FOR HELP. Policeman Grabs the Surgeon and Arrests Him on the Spot—Magistrate Finer Him $10 Which He Didn't Have. Impromptu The newest pastime of a class of young men who resort to regions con- tiguous to the Bowery was report: e4 in Centre Street Court to-day by Mra. Rose Schwenck, of No, 143 Second avenue. who accused Henry Robers of Jaxbing her with a hypodermic syringe in Canal atrect, Robors, who said he lived at (No, a3 Park Row, was fined #10, which he was unable to pay. Mrs, Schwenck, a plump and pleasing young person, was walking through nal street yesterday evening, when Rovers approacied her and passed his right hand toward her, Mrs. Gohwenck yeiled most alarmingly, Jumping halt- way acrows the street and falling in a “aint, after notifying the neighborhood that she had been stabbed. Policeman Relohert, of the Mulberry treet etation, saw the incident and Tabbed Robera. It was found that he had jabbed Mrs. Schwenck with a needle-pointed hypodermic syringe filled with a colorless fluid. Rovers sald tt ‘was an accident, but Reichert sald that there had been many complaints made at the station-houee by women who had been annoyed by the syringe-wielder, ANGRY WINE ARE AFTER HM Goldberg Had More than the Law Allows, it Is Alleged, and Sweethearts, Too, Whom He Was Engaged to Marry. | Detective Daniel Lee, atached to the | Jersey City Police Headquarters, re- |ported to his chief to-day the arrest of Abraham Goldberg, alias George Green, in Bridgeport on a charge of bigamy and a series of other crimes preferred by one of his wives. Detec- ‘tive Lee not only found Mr. Goldberg in Bridgeport, but when the arrest be- came known a young woman came for- ward and announced that she had ar- ranged to marry the prisoner on the day after the arrest. On the following day still another disappointed eweet- heart appeared and declared that she had made full preparations to marry him on July 10. A short time ago Mrs. George Green, of Brooklyn, met a Mrs, Abranam Gold- berg, of Jersey City. Indiscussing thelr |husbands they were startled by a striking similarity in description, They compared two photographs, which were {dentical, Both women. ‘Immediately went to the District-Attorney of Hud- son County, who obtained a warrant for the arrest of the dual husband. Neither wife had seen Mr. Green-Gold- berg for several months. ‘They suc- ceeded in tracing him to Bridgeport, however, and Detective Lec was sent there to’ serve the warrant. He found man established in a broker's of- |fice and enjoying a prosperous patron- “Riis Fannie Seattle, a young woman, the proprietor of a large millinery es- tablishment, informed the detective that after a spirited courting she had been ersuaded to change her name to Gold- . The ceremony was to take place the following day. She had also ar- ranged to sell out her store und @tart on @ honeymoon to New York, ‘Miss Seattle had hamlly finished her story when Miss May Seegar, also young and good looking, and also hav- ing a prosperour shop in the west end section of the city, appeared and told of another marital quest of the already ubiquitous husband. She bad been wooed and ‘won and the day had been set for July 10. She, too, had prepared to dispose of her shop. Both these women are naturally wrathful and have engaged lawyers to discover if there Is any grave charge of trifling with affections which the erlm- ina! lawn can prosecute. As a conse- quence the man is held ‘in Bridgeport, and the lawyers are now fithting it out to see whether the wives or the sweet- hearts will have the first chance at the prisoner. In elther case he need ex- pect no quarter. MAY DIE OF WOUNDS , DEALT BY WOMAN. Cologes Barretti, Who Was Shot by Mrs. Viola, Is Said to Be Sinking.
