Yesterday sho visited Mrs. John C. Grabbau, who is ll at her home in Rockville Centre, a short distance from Freeport. About 7 o'clock she left, saying she was going home. Mrs, Grabbau sald Mrs. Bailey had ap- peared in hor usual cheerful mind. ‘Tho rest of the atory as told by Dr. Carman, who is on the verge of col- lapse from the excitement incident to the tragedy, is this: “There were a number of persons In my reception room about 7.15 o'clock last night when I looked in from my office and saw Mrs. Balley.

COURT VICTIMS, | |Police Had Herded Them in Cells and Taken Their 4 Finger Prints, The sweeping action of Lieut. Ham- i of the Mendicancy Squad and thirty-five detectives in descending on Bryant Park at 2 o'clock this morn- ing and making @ prisoner of every person found there to the number of 260, was repudiated to-day by Police Commissioner Woods and Charities Commissioner Kingsbury. Mr, Woods at first refused to be- lieve that the prisoners had been swept together indiscriminately, and was sure that all of them were men against whom definite charges of habitual vagrancy had been estab- ished. Mr. Kingsbury sald the rald was outside the scope of the plans for ridding the parks of hoodlums, thieves and beggars which he had worked out with the Police Commis- sioner. Mayor Mitchel sald he did hot understand the matter, but if Commissioner Woods had ordered the arrests there must have been a rea- son for them. Hamill himself released about 90 of the prisoners when he had carted them down to Police Headquarters, Tho rest, after being crowded five or six to a cell for five hours, were finger printed like criminals and sent, without breakfast, to Yorkville Court. There Magistrate Campbell turned all but one of them free, with an ex- pression of sympathy for their treat- ment by the police and a sharp repri- mand for those responsible for their sufferings. PRISONERS WERE ALL EAGER TO GET JOBS. ‘The greater number of the prison- ers were young fellows who were or loafing previous to this morning. agistrate Campbell was shocked he saw the crowded condition explanation, He was referred to earlier editions of The Evening World, in which it was told how a cordon of detectives was drawn about the park and closed in to the centre, making arrests at the sound of Hamill'’s whis- tle. The police sald they were acting; under the orders of the Commissioner, Magistrate Campbell was incensed when he looked the prisoners over. He announced at the outset that for each and every prisoner before him a detective would have to give a dis- tinct reason for the arrest. “If,” said the Magistrate, “there is any reason why it was not possible to remedy any disagreeable conditions in the park by assigning five or six de- tectives to work there night after! night, weeding out the beggars, | thieves and rougs, I should be pleased to hear of it, The humiliation and suffering heaped on men and women already unfortunate in being poor and out of work can only be justified by some great emergency. “There iseno eri in belng poor and homeless when the railroads of |yicted. this vicinity, without considering |ICOMMISSIONER KNGSBURY DIS- APPROVES THE POLICE RAID.
