Excitement Rages as Citizens of
New York Resist Demands
of the Company.
PEOPLE ARE BACKED
BY SUPREME COURT
Suits for Illegal Ejectment DAM
ages Will Be Brought by
the Passengers.

NEW YORK, Aug 13,-The determi-
nation of the people to resist payment
Of ten-cent fare to the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit company for passage to Coney
island, Supreme Court Justice Gaynor
having decided that 5 cents was legal
fare, led TO further excitement today.
Lhto tonight the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit company relaxed its enforcement
of its rule that double fares must be
paid Numbers of passengers on cars
bound from Coney island who would
| not pay the extra D cents were allowed
| by conductors and inspectors to con-
tinue on their way.
That the officials Of Kings county and
the Borough of Brooklyn were prepared
to enforce Justice Gaynor's decision be-
came apparent during the day. District
| Attorney Clarke Of Kings county do
tailed one OF his assistants to hear COM
plants Of rough treatment by the COM
pany employees because they had re.
fused to pay an extra fare. Mr.. Clarke
also announced that prosecutions would
FOLLOW every proven case Of maltre2t
ment. Borough President Bird s. Coler
issued public statement advising per-
sons TO pay but a single fare for ride
from points in Brooklyn borough to
Coney island, and the police in the af-
fected district were ordered to be ready
to quell any fresh disturbances.
Permits Arc Revoked.
Meantime Acting Police Commission
er Waldo revoked permits empowering
the company to employ special police.
men to assist the regular men Of the
company to put of its cars persons who
resisted any demands for the extra fare.
Commissioner Waldo declared that the
ruling of Justice Gaynor would be en-.
forced and any rough treatment to pas.
sengers would meet with arrest. This
was offset and complicated to some ex-
tent by an official opinion by Acting
Mayor MCGOWAN later in the day, after
a conference between him and Corpora.
1lon Counsel Delaney, that the Brook
lyn hapld Transit company had the
fused to pay second fare, and the com
pany,s employees might use force, if
heed be-, In case Of resistance.
Meantlme the company, through its
counsel, ex-Justice Edward w. Hatcb
issued statement defending the right
OF the company to charge q ten-cent

the company, backed up this opinion by

done In the same old way
This afternoon the compapy's em-
ployees again began hating cars when.
ever second fares were not Forthcoming
from passengers, and demanding theft
payment. Several affrays occurred, and
there were some arrests. Numerous
threats were made against the company,
ana In some instances stones were
thrown at cars and company EMPLOYEES.
but by this evening serious trouble was
regarded as improbable. It was thought
the whole question would resolve itself
into litigation to force the company to
charge only q single fare.

Fact That Next Fight of the Re.
publicans Will Be Harder
Is Realized.

OYSTER BAY. Aug. 1S.-President

Representative James S. Sherman, chair
man Of the Republican Congressional
campaign committee, Chairman Shonts Of

Joseph 3. Bishop, secretary 10 the Canal
commission.
Henry w Taft of New York, brother
OF Secretary OF War Taft, and Herbert
Bridges, also OF New York. were also
luncheon guests OF the President.
When Representative Sherman left
Sycamore Hill this afternoon he said
that while he had gone over the Con-
gressionnl campaign with the President
thoroughly, the principal object OF his
visit WAS 10 review the campaign text
book, which ls to be Issued next week
When Speaker Cannon and Mr.. Sher-
man and other members of tho Congress
sional committee visited the President
several weeks ago, certain matters to
be handled In the text book were dis
cussed in detail Mr.. Sherman said 1t was
desirable 10 go over the matters again
with the President before the book should
be given to tho public, He said the

the Presidents interest and assistance
In the campaign, The outlook, he said.
WIS good, "Of course" he remarked.
'the Republicans are not going to re-
tain all the pats they have now In the
House. but We will remain in actual
control Of the Sixtieth Congress That
We are sure of.
AT the last elction we had President
Roosevelt on the ticket and no real
Democrat against him. For this reason
we carried number OF strictly Demo-
cratic districts that we had no more
right to than some one besides the Presi-
dent had to Sycamore Hill. While we
expect to lose some of these districts
tho Republican members who hold them
are now confident In every instance OF
their reelection"
