YELLED WOMAN TO
SEE WAINWRIGHT
BUTMYsTERIoUs CALLER FAILS
TO GAIN ADMITTANCE. u.
Futile Appeal to Jailers Is Followed by
Tears and Wrath and scornful Ar
paignment Of Policemen, but to No
Avail--Wainwright Excited when
Told of Incident.

Mystery mingled with excitement
pervaded police headquarters today
when a woman, heavily yelled, de-
manded permission to see Thomas j.:
Wainwright who is in cell in Central
station waiting trial on a charge OF
looting DR.. j. N. Pinault s residence
at 1906 Mount Curve avenue.
She was not the woman whom VAIN
wright showered with presents, say
those who saw her, but she urgently
wanted to see the prisoner and she
soon turned from tears to wrath when
the permission was refused. She first
went directly to Central station. An
nouncing herself to Jailer AL Needham
that she wanted to see Mr.. Wainwright,
she started for the cell block. Need
ham, however, has instructions to let
no one see the man, and he told her
to apply. to Assistant Superintendent
Mealey for a permit.
Didn't Know Wainwright.
Mealey wanted to know her mission
before admitting her, and he began
asking questions. In reply she said she
did not know Wainwright, but wanted
to see him on a matter of business.
She was told to state her business and
possibly arrangements could be made
for an interview. va w.. a
At this she began to weep, but a mo-
ment later, when told that an officer
would have to be present during the in:
terview, she became angry and ventureo
scornful remarks about policemen In
general. But Mealey was firm and the
woman went out of the Office declaring
she would appeal to the mayor. This
was not done, as the chief executive Is
out Of the city. I ~ [.
Dressed neatly in a dark suit, the
woman had every appearance Of refine
ment. She is not more than 80 years
old. During her visit she kept hel
face yelled, perhaps to prevent the pc
lice from recognizing her again. -
Who Was She?
AS soon as she had left there was al
| argument among the officers as to WIZ
she was. Most of them thought sh'
was relative who has heard Of hi
| trouble and wanted to offer him fnan
| cial aid. Others thought she was mere
ly an acquaintance.
Wainwright appeared excited whe,
told that woman had called to see him
but he asked no questions and late
said he could not imagine who sh
was. He is apparently in no need O
money, as he has. decided to plea,
guilty. He received 500 by telegraph
from Boston last night. The order
which was cashed in the office of Pete

no clue to the sender, but it is presume
that it is from his brother who lives i
