WIFE UMBRELLAED.- HIM,
And He Had the Police Arrest Her for
R0bbing His Mother.

A woman belabored man over the head
with an umbrella in Sixth avenue at Twenty
eighth street yesterday afternoon. When
she stopped and ran up the elevated stairs
on the north bound side the man went after
her. So did most of the crowd, who wanted
to see the end Of the row.
The couple continued their fight on the
station, the man all the while demanding
two letters he said the woman had snatched
from him on the street He tore the buttons
OF her coat in his effort to recover the
letters.
To a policeman the man said he wanted
the woman arrested on a charge Of larceny.
At the Tenderloin station he said that he
was Alfred Clement, hotel steward, and
that the woman with whom he was quarrel
ling was his wife Leonie Clement. Clement
with his mother, Mrs. Eulalie Bschel Last
September, Clement says, he went to France
to settle up an estate Of which his mother
is one of the heirs. When he arrived in
France he sent word to his mother and wife
to follow him.
Mrs. Bisohel was then living in Corona,
L. l., where she had house. Clement
saws his wife volunteered to arrange Mrs.
Bisobel's business affairs for her and that
she placed all Mrs. Bische's furniture.
valued at over 81 900, in storage In this city.
About the time the mother and daughter
in-law were TO sail to rejoin Clement, Leonie
disappeared.
Yesterday, he says. his wife came to his
mothers home and tried to get possession
OF some things that do not belong TO her.
There was a light there, which was renewed
later in the street. Mrs. Clement was
held on his charge Of grand larceny.

Then Released and Allowed to Advertise
suing for False Arrest.

May Irwins ads made more trouble for
the Interborough Railroad Company yester-
day. representative Of Miss Irwin with one
Charles Becker, hearing sign about Miss
Irwin's show on his hat, went to the uptown
platform of the Brooklyn Bridge station.
Becker paid bis fare, but instead OF boarding
a train marched back and forth on the plat
form.
At the end Of half an hour Stationmaster
Charles Madigan ordered Becker away.
Becker refused to depart, 30 Madigan called
in Policeman Svenson. who took Becker
to the City Hall station, where Madigan
made a complaint Of creating nuisance in
the subway against him. However, on
second thought. Madigan withdrew the
charge. and Becker was released.
He wont back to the subway station and
began his march again. Madigan again
ordered him away. and again Becker refused
to go. Madigan called up the office of the
marlborough company on the telephone
for instructions. What he heard sent him
to Becker in a hurry with the informa ton
that he would not be molested further. -
Bennett E. Siegelstein OF o7 Nassau street,
Miss Irwins counsel in the matter, an
nounced later that he had begun a snit
against the marlborough company for S. 900
for falsely arresting Becker.

trips. Although there was large crowd
aboard, the deokhands had no trouble In
keeping the passengers quiet.
The Chicago also bumped hard against
the bridge Of her slip in jersey City while
making a landing in the early morning.
The bridge was forced back several feet
and timbers were torn up. The slip was
put out Of commission for the day.
Shortly after O'Clock In the afternoon
the ferryboats Bergen and Musconetcong Of
the lAckawanna Railroad ferry came into
collision near their Hoboken slip. The
Bergen left the New York side on her s
o'clock trip for Hoboken. As she neared
her destination the Musconetcong, which
was just leaving. bumped into her. The
fog was very heavy at the time and the
whistles only puzzled the pilots. The
Bergen struck the Musconetcong on the
starboard quarter, few feet aft Of the
paddle box, and slid of the guard rail to the
stern platform. Part OF the mems cabin
on the Bergen was ripped out Shattered
glass and a rail carried away made up the
total Of the Musconetcongs damage.
Frederick Lindner, a deckhand on the
Bergen, was on the forward deck when the
crash came. The men standing outside the
cabin under the upper gangway tmade
rush for the cabin. Lindner stopped the
stampede.
There was a slight scare in the women's
cabin, but it was soon allayed. When the
boats drifted apart each proceeded on
her way.
The Twenty-third street boats of the
Pennsylvania and Erie railroads were run
ming far behind schedule time. The Staten
Island ferryboats gave up trying to keep
schedule time, and crawled along as best
they could
The fog thickened about $50 in the after
noon and the Brooklyn ferry to Thirty ninth
street ceased running The Hamilton ave-
nue. ferry was the only line running to South
Brooklyn.
Ellis Island was cut off from ferry com-
munioation with Manhattan several hours
during the afternoon, when the fog was
densest. The ferryboat Ellis Island missed
three trips, lying up at her slip at the i'm
migration station from until Gas P. M.
About 400 Italians had gone over from
the Barge Office to welcome friends and
relatives and the whole bunch. about ZOO
persons in all, gathered at the island landing
to make a rush for the boat when the gates
were opened. About 250 employees of the
immigration Bureau we're also making
ready to take the boat.
Commissioner Williams, anticipating
crush, had got a detail of cops from the
Barge Office. They are stalwarts, and
they kept the Italians from overwhelming
each other and the Ellis Island employees.
Even as it was. there was a jam on the
boat and a mighty odor of garlic. The
boat groped to the Barge Office in the fair
time Of half an hour.

Haven due TO leave Stamford at 7:15 p M,
and arrive In the Grand Central Station at
ss5 p. M. was killed instantly In a collision

to the engineer as a signal to back. The

There was a dense fog over Stamford
tonight and it was impossible to see the
signals. which are but short distance off.
The accommodation train is due TO reach

passengers for Stamford it backs up in
the yard and remains until 7l5, when it
leaves for New York. Tonight the accom-

torpedoes were placed on the tracks at the
Atlantic street bridge, which is about 100

exploded the express had already slowed
down, but the engineer was unable to
stop until he had struck the accommoda-
ton train.

Joseph Levinsk was injured about the
head. Traffic was delayed for over an
hour.
