of the attendants hurried her downstairs and
turned her over to Policeman Calvin. young
man. who said he had escorted her TO the show,
took the jewelry from the young woman. Calvin
started with her TO the West Thirtieth-st. po-
lice station. She fought at every step. In the
station she became so frantic that it took three
policemen TO hold her.
An ambulance was called from the New York
Hospital. and the surgeon who accompanied it
applied stomach pump to the woman. He de-
clared that she had evidently been drinking
large quantity of absnthe.
While the surgeon was working over the
woman the man who had taken her jewelry
walked into the station. and he had hardly got
inside the door when William a. Brady. the
manager OF the Woman's Show, rushed in and
said to the sergeant;
Hold that man. He has lot OF tewelry that
belongs to young woman who was taken with
Mysteries IN the Garden"
Captain Walsh came into the room at the time.
and the young man told him he had taken the
jewelry for fear that some one might steal it.
He said that ne was Charles Owing. of No :
East Twenty eighth-st.

panion. and when she had quieted down some
what she said that her name was Martha Will
iams of No. 2lG West One-hundred and d-forty-
ninth-st Then she said it was Adelaide Davis
Mr.. Brady said that he knew her and that
neither or the names the right one. He
would not tell her name. but he said she was
the daughter of a wealthy man who did not live
here.
Captain Walsh decided 20 hold Owing as sus-
picous person. At Mr.. Brady's request the cap
tain released the young woman under bail. a
charge Of intoxiCation having been entered
against her. Mr.. Brady furnished the bail She
left the station with Mr.. Brady, and will have

The dealers could not tell how long they would
be able to maintain the scale of prices. Some of
them said that if anthracite coal did not come
10 the city in large quantities within week af-
ter the reOpening of the mines the schedule
might last for fortnight. Some of the dealers
said that the public being assured of the settle
ment of the coal strike waiting for break
in prices before buying coal 1t was impossible
to sell coal they said, without cutting prices.
and il was doubtful If the schedule voted yester-
day could be maintained next week.
Some of the coal that has been kept in
serve by the coal roads during the strike was
being released yesterday. on Monday, when the
miners convention votes to end the strike there
will be general release of coal that has been held
up along the anthracite lines. This coal will
come into the market before much fresh coal is
shipped from the mtneA and it Will help in in
Creasing the supply and reducing the prices. II
was impossible yesterday to get information as
10 the extent of the reserve coal that Will be
leased but the dealers believe the supply viii
be increased next week to a point where every
body who wants coal can get some at reason
able rates.
