Great Disorder on the Gars.
Brooklyn, N. Y. The Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Company charged ten
cents fare to Coney Islandy notwith
standing the decision of Justice Gay
nor of the Appellate Division of the
Supreme Court, who ruled that the
c jnany was entitled only to five
The company did this with the aid
of 230 special policemen and a corps
of heavyweight inspectors. A siml
lar number of real policemen were
on band 'to preserve order, but failed
to do so. .
Fully 1000 persons, men, women
and children, -ro forcibly ejected
from the trolley cars; 500 walked
nearly half the way to the island; the
first steps were taken in scores of
damao suits, and the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit representatives defied
Deputy Police Commissioner O'Keeffe
of Brooklyn. Lawyers and lawyers'
clerks swarmed about the , points
where passengers were put off and
took the names of witnesses.
As an outcome of the day's doings
a committee of citizens is being
formed in Brooklyn -to enforce Jus
tioe Gaynor's ruling. Sheriff Flah
ertv of Kings County was informed
of the nurpose of the committee, and
that the committee intended to call
on him, as Sheriff, to protect them as
citizens in upholding their rights.
Sheriff Flaherty said: ;
"I have not been requested to act
as yet, and I have not taken the mat
ret "under advisement. If such a de
mand was made and I felt-that I
should act, my force or deputies la
so-smah that I would be compelled
to call upon the Governor of the State
to ive me some of the militia."
When the trolley cars bound for
Coney left Gravesend after the B. R.
T. officials had finished their rough
treatment of passengers, a long open
stretch of tracks was in front of
them, and to make ud time they
traveled at terrific speed. Mary and
Hel?n Wrls, corslns, of No. 405
Tenth avenue, nineteen and twenty-
three years old respectively, when
walking across the bridge over Co
ney Island Creek, were struck by a
car in charge of Victor Conomos.
They were' knocked into the creek
ten feet below. Passengers leaped
into the water and saved them.
Helen Walsh was injured internally,
and was taken to the Coney island
Reception HosDital. Her cousin was
bruised about the face and shoulders,
but was able to go to her home.
Conomos was placed under arrest.
Bird S. Coler, President of Brook
lyn Borough, was one of the thou
sands of passengers who went to Co
ney Island. He and his wife were
passengers on a Nostra"nd avenue car
for Coney Island. He was responsi
ble for carrying the case against the
B. R. T. before Justice Gaynor. He
said the actions of the inspectors and
special policemen were disgraceful,
and that they should not be per
mitted to wear the uniforms of the
city police, and thus give persons the
impression their actions were those
of the city police. He, said he would
advocate an ordinance to deprive
them of the privilege.
