A PRE ad + | happy: “" ~ ELIAS WOMAN . Hannah Elias, jubilant over her etumph in court yesterday, sat in the @vessing-room of her magnificent Cen- ‘tral Park West home to-day and gave @n Evening World reporter a complete account of her relations with John R. Platt. Incidentally, she told of the ef- forts she had made to improve herself and to Wisguise the fact that she Js a Megress, and also dwelt on the black- fmadling to which she was obliged to pubmit in order to protect her aged lover from the harples who clung to him.

Now at I have been vindicated in this first proceeding I am quite ready to tell you ail about this affair. In the first place, I am, as you know and everybody knows now, a negress. I am sorry that Iam, but it 1s not my fault.

They were well @one—as well done as any society wom- an could write. “And I studied so hard, too,” she yaid. “I studied French and if you don't think I can speak it listen,” and she ripped out @ long sentence in excellent French. ‘And I studied deportment and table manners and other little things until I pelleve that in the ways of the world Jam to-day a refined woman, I did Yhis for my own sake and because I yanted to Be as nearly a white woman ts Icould, I hate negroes.

Mrs, Ida Gumbrecht, of No. @ Pilling street, Brooklyn, fs in a serious condi- tion to-day with a probable fracture as the reault of an attack made upon an automobile in which she was riding with Dr. Henry L. Miller, a dentist, of No, 1.009 Blshwick avenue, and his wife. Dr. Miller and his wife aleo were hurt, being struck on the head, face and body by clubs, rocks, dead cats and missiles of every kind. So frequent have attacks become on automobiles that hardly a night passes when some one is not neverely injured by stones thrown by roughs and gangs of hoodiums who lie in wait in dark spots for the machines. Thevpolice have run through the city and Brooklyn in Automobiles, taking women with them, so as to tempt ults from thes ronghs, but the conditions seem to have grown worse instead of better. and it is now a al danger to life 1 and limb to venture in certain parts of New York -or Long Island in an automobile after dark. ‘The attack on Dr. Miller's automobile was deliberately planned by a gang cf roaghs and hoodlums who stood in Easte:n Parkway and Somers street last night. It was evidently their pur- pose to attack the first automobile that passed and to do as great damage a8 possible, All through the evening mis- siles had been hurled at automobiles, but no damuge of any significance was reported until the roughs congregated and determined to make a combined onslaught. Struck im Head and Arma. Dr. Miller was driving the machine after a run to the country. He was going at an ordinary rate of speed and waa not aware that he was in danger when there came a shower of rocks. He was struck in the head and arm causing him to lose control of the m: chine, which bounded to one side ct the street. 5 Before he could regain control of the machine the attack was made on Mrs, Miller and Mrs, Gumprecht. Both women were felled by stones and Knocked from the seat to the floor of the machine. By this time the attack on the auto- mobile had become so intense and It) became so evident that the roughs were bent elther on murder or on In- filcting serious Injury that Dr, Miller put on full speed and the machine whirled ahead. Then came an attack from @& ond gang which was in waiting further up the road, Again the dentist, his wife and Mrs. Gum- brecht were stoned with violence, This gang pai ed, the automobile ran into 8) third gang. Again the physician was struck with such force that he lost control of the machine. With no hand Controlling or gulding {t it swerved to one side of the road and turned over, pinning Mrs, Miller and Mrs, Gum- brecht beneath It. Both Women Braixe! reams of the women and the cnune Sethe dentist brought the po- lice, So bold were the roughs who had attacked the women and Dr. Mil- ler that even the arrival of the police ia not stop the stone throwing, The police reserves from the Ralph avenue Station were called out before the gang disappeared in the darkness, Syith the assistance of some men who had been attracted by the screams of the women Dr. Miller lifted the machine ard releaged Mra, Gumbrécht and Mrs, Miller. Both women were unconscious, ay.d were carried to a drug store a block away and an ambulance summoned from St. Mary's Hospital. Dr. Owen decided that Mrs. Gum- brecht was the more seriously injured, ‘and hurried hor to the hospital. She was severely bruised about the body, arms and limbs, and may be internally in- dured. * strs. Miller recovered consciousness in the drug store and was removed to her home. The attack had no provocation and occurred at a point where large numbars of automobiles and other vehicles pasa atghtly. Occasionally a bicycle has been stoned, but this is the first time an au- of the skull, at St. Mary's Hospital, | tomobile has been pursued and stoned ty @ crowd. Has Been Stomed Often. . Miller was eeen at his residence to-day and asked if it was the first time he had been stoned while riding in his auto. He said: “No, indeed. Stoning automobiles ts getting to be a common affair in Brook- lyn. As a wule, however, the hoodlums who do It never seem to try it in the daytime. I have owned my machine | about month and had it for some time before that, testing it. Since I have been using it I have found the worst districts for those hoodlums to be Madi- ton street, between Broadway and Patchen avenue, and /Hancock street, near Stuyvesant avenue. | “Yam surprised at the boys who stone | autos along Haneock street because of the respectability of that neighborhood | As a matter of fact, the boys who stoned us along there were much better dressed than the average gangs that gage in such operations. I was stoned |along Hancock street a week ago also. | “I thoroughly approve of Inspector | Bchmittberger's plan of chasing the hoodlums in an auto with women for decoys. I saw the accounts of his ex- ploits Iast Sunday, and I wish some of the police on this side of the river would try It, ‘The thing {s getting to be a menace to the lives of automobilists. There has been no serious accident in Brooklyn yet from this cause, but there fs no telling what will happen if the gangs of hoodlums that indulge in the practice, are allowed to go unchecked.” Auto Attacks im Jersey Clty. Efforts are being made by, the police ot Jersey City to-tay to run to earth a gang of toughs who nightly make agsaults on automobilists from ambush, hurling stones and sticks at them and endeavoring not only to Infilct injury to those in the machines, but to wreck the machines. ‘While Mr. and Mrs. Robert B.
