THE EVENING WORLD, THURSDAY, APRIL “POISON PHONE” SLURSMIRS, ABELIN POLITICAL FIGHT Women Stirred by Plot Against District Leader Who Resigned. Women of the 1th Assembly Dis- trict in Brooklyn were stirred yester- day by charges that an attack was being made upon Mrs, Minnie J. Abel, Democratic woman leader of the dis- | } trict. At the meeting of the organi- | zation Tuesday night she offered her ' resignation after it was announced j to the club that the telephone was being used in an effort to discredit her. According to Mrs. Ellen Gallagher of the club, women have been calling ' up members of the district and iml- tating Mrs. Abel's voice. Thia led to gossip about alleged domestic diffi- culties concerning persons well known in the district. The voice over the telephone has made the owner a pest, whose tactics have been the source of much annoyance. Reciting one instance, Mra. Gallagher said: “I answered the telephone and a woman's voice came on. It sounded exactly like Mrs, Abel's. The woman said: ‘Are you Helen Gallagher?’ Now Mire. Abei is the only person I know Who calls me Helen. But } answered: ‘No; this is Ellen Gallagher.’ "’ Mrs. Gallagher said that the woman on the other end of the wire then started a conversation which she could not re- peat. Mrs. Abel herself thinks the tele- phone messages are the work of some- one with a depraved mind. ‘There's a certain woman in this district," she said, “who has some- thing wrong with her brain. Only a depraved mind would do such a thing ‘This has been going on for some time, and I have reported the matter to the District Attorney and to the telephone company."” Mrs. Abel said she knows who is Announcement iu made of the engage- ment of Miss Emily Sloane Hammond, who returned to-day on the Homeric from mbroad, to John Merryman Frank- in, Miss Hammond, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mra, John Henry Hammond of No. § East Sist Street, is a great- granddaughter of the William H Vanderbilt, thus being fifth in line from Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt, foun- der of the family. The engagement ts one of the most interesting of the wpring. Miss Ham- late Found Shackled in R responsible for all the trouble. So fo the company and the District Attorney, she said, But District At-] “‘Everybody seems to be having fun torney Ruston has told Mrs. Abel he Qrould be able to do nothing until the ‘one responsible is caught in the act. The woman leader denies the trouble has caused her to offer her resigna- tion as leader of the district, » Mrs. Abel's resignation was referred to the County Committee. At the meeting Tuesday night, which was held at the clubrooms, No. 590 Gi Avenue, the members expressed their confidence in their leader and prom- ined to back her in her fight against the owner of the pestiferous voice. fi Dhara SIMMONS ATTACKS SENATE TARIFF BILL Highest Ever Written, He Says, and Most Unsuited Under Present Conditions. with the police thought I'd have some too. This was the novel explanation of. fered to-day by Nathaniel Lindenroth, thirty-one years old, of No. 12% West 65th Street, described as a clerk in the Columbia Phonograph Company, No. 1819 Broadway, who was found chainw in bed in a furnished room he engaged last night at No. 141 East 127th Street. His hands and legs were chained to the bedstead. He wore only a few articles of feminine attire when the landlady, Mrs, Char ney, hearing a noise in the room, in- vestigated. The phonograph salesman was then making frantic efforts to get himself loose of the chains. Mrs. Charney called Patrolman James Vitale of the East 126th Street Station, who found a note on a table nearby: ‘“‘I did this to get revenge. these days, so I B18.
