Detective Harry Morton Of the Tender
loin station was called to Proctor's Twenty
third Street Theater early yesterday even
ing to help remove woman who had de-
veloped violent Mysteries in the gallery.

time in learning that she was Annie Potter,
SO years old, Of 81 Sixth avenue. She was
locked up to sleep it off
A little later Mrs. Gray, the matron,
heard a gurgling sound in the womens
ward. She traced it to Mrs. Potter's cell
Mrs. Gray found the prisoner squatted
down pulling with all her weight on corset
strine which ran from her neck to bar Of
the cell. Mrs. Potter was out down at once.
She had not been strangling herself long
enough to have any injury more serious
than a red mark about her neck. The
corset string was removed and Mrs. Potter
became quiet.
A few minutes later there were more
eurgles. Mrs. Gray sped to Mrs Potter's
cell. She was trying it again. this time
she was quoted and seemed about to go to
sleep, and again as soon as Mrs. Gray's
back was turned there were gurgles. This
time she had torn strip from her skirt
to make rope.
sI'm going to kill myself anyhow, what
ever you do, howled Mrs. Potter after they
foiled the third attempt.
time. At her request they sent for an
Ambulance and took the Potter woman
to the prison ward at Bellevue where they
are experts at handling suicidal mania.

Man Drew Knife. Cops Drew Pistols.
The f. T. Mason who was summoned to
the Harlem police court on Saturday by
on a charge Of non-support turned the
tables on his annoyer yesterday Dorothy
Mason was herself prisoner in the morning
in the West Side court charged with keeping
an opium joint and with violation of the
tenement house law.
When Mason was hailed to court on Satur-
day he was accompanied by private
detective who got good look at the W oman.
When she left court she went straight to her
fat in West Forty-third street. Saturday
night Sylvester l.. Cosgrove, a private de-
tective Of 1913 Madison avenue, met Ar
thur Sullivan. who seems to make his home
in Dorothy Mason's fiat. Cosgrove posed
as a redhot sport with money and desire
to smoke opium.
On Sunday Cosgrove was taken by Sulli-
van to the Mason woman's fat. where he
says be smoked opium. That night Cos
grove went to the police of the West Forty
seventh street station and said he wanted
the Mason fat raided. As the police wanted

while Waitzfelder stayed on the street
awaiting the signal from the men inside
to help in the raid. Brehme says that
opium was given him to smoke in the fat.
1t was after I o'clock yesterday morning
before Brehme got ready to make the raid.
In the place at the time, besides himself
and Coegrove, the private detective. were
the Mason woman, Sullivan and another

and the Mason woman were taken to the
police station in the patrol wagon. The
woman was charged with keeping and main
tanning disorderly house and OPIUM joint,
and the two men with being inmates.
In court Yesterday Edwards was dis
charged, but Sullivan and the wo an were
held FOR a hearing on Wednesday and placed
under s., 900 bail each, as Cosgrove wanted
time to have a drug that the cops seized

private detective is the principal witness
against them, and he did not tell the police
by whom he was employed. The police
suspect that his employer is Mason.

MADE $50 MILES IN 10 4. 66 N.
CENTRAL FLIER DOES BETTER
THAN IS HOUR SCHEDULE.

Lands in New York From Chicago Four
Minutes Ahead Of Time-Made Some
Miles Under 40 Seconds Passengers
Say There Was Little vibration.
The New York Centrals eastbound flier
from Chicago, which started the new
eighteen hour service, got into the Grand
Central station yesterday morning four
minutes ahead Of time, having made the
900 SO miles between New York and Chicago
in is hours and SO minutes actual running
time. So smoothly did the train run at
times of it's greatest speed that glass OF
water filed to the brim and placed on a
ledge in the wall Of the buffet car didn't
spill one drop.
The record made by the train delighted
the roads officials, and the passengers.
too. They all had great stories to tell OF
the trip.
In running the train the prepared time
table for leaving division points had to
be adhered to scrupulously no matter
how much the train was ahead Of time in
arriving at these points. The result was
that the remarkable time made by the train
over the eighteen hours wasn't shown at
the finish, but the passengers all had records
this speed, and some Of them were disap-
pointed when the train had to stand still
sometimes as long as twenty-five minutes
to leave on time.
There we're seventy-two passengers on
the train. Among the passengers were
Mr. and Mrs. James H. Horlick of Homo
lulu, who made record OF crossing the
continent of 81 hours and II minutes.
Others on board we're James NJ. Hill, vice.
president Of the Great Northern; V. P.
Grammar vice-president Of 4be Central
lines west of Buffalo, and Traffic Manager
DAILY. George Daniels got on at Albany
to be in at the finish.
From the minute the train left Chicago
she gained time so fast that long stops
were necessary. At Elkhart, the first
division point, there was stop OF Is
minutes. at Toledo, Is, at Cleveland, 2l,
at Buffalo %, and at Albany, 10. There
was no formal record taken Of the fastest
mile made, but good many miles were
done under 40 seconds, the average
speed being 81 miles an hour. The
train consisted Of four cars when it left
Chicago. 1t rolled in here with six, one
being the diner picked up at Albany. The
last Car was an observation car.
Some OF the passengers stayed up pretty
late to watch the effect from the back end
of the flyer at night. When there was any
thing like a curve the train would be fol-
lowed by cloud Of flying sparks reaching
twenty feet back of the rear platform
1T beat anything have ever witnessed,
said one passenger, land all the time you
felt as though you were driving in a rubber
tired carriage on the Lake Shore drive
There was only one mishap, and that was
slight one. East of Syracuse the train
started down grade at such speed that the
insulation Of two of the cars was burned
out The electricity is generated by the
axles. When they got going so fast the
lights flared up bright and then suddenly
went out. No attempt was made to fix
matters, as daylight was near.
