EXCURSION BOAT BLOT.
Bartender Robbed-A Free Fight
Women Faint-ArreStS.

A riot including a robbery. a small fleet
of excursion boats in the Hudson River last
night stirred the police of several precincts into
unusual activity. a force went up the river on
the police boat Patrol and several arrests were
made.
The Manhattan Benevolent Association con-
Quoted an excursion yesterday. The steamboat
Laura N. Starin and three barges carried about
$500 members of the association and persons
who had bought tickets to Pine View Grove on
the Hudson. The organization is largely COM
posed of young men living between Forty-sec-
and and Ftfty-ninth sts., between and near
Tenth and Eleventh aves
The first information given the police of the
trouble aboard the boats was telephoned to Cap
tain Ferris. who was in command at Headquar-
tiers. by CAPTAIN Peter Anthony. of the tugboat
Anthony Captain Ferris at once sent orders to
the harbor police and to several precincts.
Roundsman Harry Murray. with eight men of
the harbor police, and Roundsman Dobson, with
twelve men Of the Church-st station, boarded
the Patrol and started UP the river. Mean
time the reserves of the West Thirty-seventh-st.
station went to the pier at West Thirty seventh
st. The reserves of the West Forty-seventh-st.
station. under command of Acting Captain DAILY
OF the West Forty-seventh-st. station, went to
the pier at West F'iftieth-st.
The man who says he robbed was Ed
ward O'Neil, of Twenty-seventh-st. and Tenth
ave. who had the "bar privilege" He made
complaint to the police when the Patrol met the
little feet at Ninety-sixth-st. and the North
River. To the officers who boarded the Starin
O'NeI said that some distance up the river a
fierce fight had been waged aboard the boat Just
as darkness was setting in. Bottles were
thrown, dishes smashed and hats crushed and
thrown overheard.
The excitement spread to all the boats and
pandemonium reigned, with the screams and
shrieks of women and the shouts and yells of
men Many Of the women tainted, one of them
going into hysterical coma, from which she did
not recover for hours. She Miss Birdie
Reddy, eighteen years old, of No. 425 West Fiji
tieth-st When the boats reached Fiftieth-st
she was removed to Roosevelt Hospital.
In the fight, O'Neil told the police Of the
Patrol when they boarded the excursion craft
some of the crowd stole boz which contained
S125 of the bar receipts. During the remainder
of the journey down the river O'Neil pointed
out seven men who, he said, had been ringlead-
ers in the fight. When the pier at Fiftieth-st
was reached he pointed out six more men. All
were placed aboard the Patrol and taken down
the river to Pier A
When the patrol reached Pier a the police
men escorted nine prisoners, the complainant
and his three bartenders and walters to the
Office before Sergeant lesser. Mr.. O'Neu was
unable to identify any particular man as nav
ing robbed him, but said he believed they all
had hand in it.
