No matter what the general magni-

trouble was regarded as improbable. It was thought the whole question would resolve itself into litigation for force the company to charge only a single fare. The company to-nigh foresaalled to a large extent further clashes be- tween passengers and employees by re- moving some of the trolley cars where most of the trouble yesterday occurred. Thls became necessary because trolley ear traff had become so congested. The elevated trains were jammed but as a rule the passengers paid the double fare without question rather than undergo delay, Those, howevef, who did oths-- wise on any of the company's lines were obliged by it's representatives to get off and walk.
 The body of young woman which had not been identified up to midnight was found tonight on trestle, cross ing Coney Island creek. The opinion is ventured by detectives that she may have met her death during the disturb ance over double car fare to Coney Is- land when walking on the track or otll- erwise.

NoRrHF1ELD CONFERENCE.

Breaks All Previous Records-A Con-
 ference Held on Pastoral Evangel-
 isnl--English Speakers.
 East Northfeld, Mass, Aug, H. The twenty-fourth annual general con- ference for Christian workers closed it's first week here last night and has made a new record for summer con- .ferences in every department of the work,For the entire week new guests have continued to pour into the town so that tonight 1t is estimated that nearly half thousand more people are in attendance than at the correspond ing time last year. In the number of the public meetings and in the general attendance the same showing has re- suited. Every speaker is sure of a large audience although many visitors attend only few meetings a day. Thus far the dominating influences have been the sub-conference for pas toral evangelism and the addresses of the trio of English lecturers. Drs, c. Campbell Morgan, Johnston Ross and John A. Hutton. These men began their work on Tuesday morning and have been featuring daily throughout the week, Dr. Morgan on the last three books of the Pentateuch, Dr. Ross on the Gospel of St. John and pr. Hutton on general topics. All three are sched- ulad to remain in Nortllfield after the conference closes and Dr. Morgan will lecture throughout September on the Drama of Job. The final meeting on pastoral evangelism will be held to- morrow afternoon with Dr. R. A. Tor rey listed to preside The general top ie of each pastor becoming his own evangelist will be sub-divided into methods of procedure, music, workers and the question of after meetings. Hundreds of mnsters have been at tending these meetings and each after noon discussions have been long and spirited. Whether any steps will be taken for an organization to further a national revival has not yet been set tied. Along the speakers who have taken part are Len c, Broughton, of Atlanta, Cleland B. McAfee of New York, Charles Erdnan of Philadelphia, and pr. Morgan. In the educational side of the conference the work of Hampton Institute, Rogers Academy .of Arkansas, and Miss Martha Berry's school at Rome, Gas have been pre- scented. One meeting a day is planned for missionaries and last night the country taken up was Korea. There are many interesting foreigners in town and one of the recent speakers was full blooded onondaga Indian. The gathering will dose Sunday, Au- gust 19.

 OVER CONEY ISLAND FARE

Meantime Acting Police Commissioner Waldo revoked permits empowering the company to employ special policemen to assist the regular men of the con- pany. to put off it's cars persons who resisted any demands for the extra fare.
 Mir Waldo declared that the ruling of Justice Gayhor would be enforced and any roughness toward passengers by company representatives would meet with arrest. This was offset and com plicated to some extent by an official opinion by Acting Mayor McGowan lat CT in the day, after conference be- tween him and Corporation Counsel De laney that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company had a right to refuse to carry persons who refused to pay a second fare, and the companys employees might use force, if need be, in case of resistance.
 Meantime the company through it's counsel, ex-Justice Edward M. Hatch. issued a statement defending the right of the company to charge a tetn cent  fare, He held that the question of fare was not involved in the case which came up before Justice Gaynor but that a prior decision of the appellate divi- sion of the supreme court, relating to this phase of the double fare question had not been rtullified. J. F. Calder wood. vice president and general man. aser of the companyg, backed up this opinion by a statement that business would be done "in the same old way"
 This afternoon the company's en- ployes again began halting cars, when- ever second fares were not forthcom- ing from passengers, and demanding their payment Several accidents occur red and there were some arrests.

COLONEL PETIT DYING.
Life of Former Yale Military Instruc-
 tor Despai.ed Of

Life of Former Yale Military Tnstruc-
 tor Despaised of.
 The friends of lieutenant Colonel James Summer Petit of the regular army received yesterday the distressing news that his is lying at the point of death at his temporary residence in the city of Washington. Ever since his ser vice in the Philippine Islands Colonel Petit has been afflicted with Bright s disease.
 His career has been 9 notable one in cluding his four years here from 1892 to 1896, as instructor of military science at Yale. Previous to that he had done duty in different parts of the country and had been an instructor at he mili- ary academy at West Point. During the Spanish war he organized the fam ous Fourth regiment of immunes. and as governor of the Province of Man zanillo in Cuba achieved a distinction second only to that achieved by General Wood at Santiago. In the Philippines he was colonel of the Thirty-third resi- ment, which he recruited in Ohio and Kentucky and which became known as the Presidents own. He afterward served in the island as district gover- nor of Zamboanga and was voted by congress a medal of honor for distin- gUished services. He returned later in broken health and has served on the general staff, from which he retired to care for the interests of the national guard. In 1904, Yale university confer red upon him the degree of master of arts. His portrait in oil hangs in the city hall of Manzanillo He has done much excellent literary work in connec. ton with his profession. He has taken the military prize for essays twcle and is now the editor of the Infantry Mamagine.
 While here Colonel Petit was a social favorite, and was one of three men to be elected to honorary membership in the Quinnipiack club, as he was to a similar position in one of the secret so- cieties of the scientific department, Ber- zelius. He has wife, who was a niece of General U. s. Grant and the daugh- ter of well known army officer of his time, General Sharpe. He has one son and three daughters.
 The latest reports aree that it is hoped Colonel Petit will live three or four days.

STRIKERS ISSUE STATEMENT.
Rejected Switchmen Explain and Try
 to Justify Action.

Rejected Switchmen Explain and Try
 to Justify Action.
 The striking switchmen in the local freight yards held meeting in I. o. O. F. hall yesterday afternoon, at which Second Grand Vice. President Valentine Fitzpatrick YVES present. The strikers were in session for number of hours, adjourning at o'clock. A statement was issued explaining their side of the case and in justification of their action. The men were misled by the idea that their statement of their grievances to a national officer who visited this city recently, and who promised to look into the question, was sufficient to make the strike legal.
 From present indications it is expect ed that within few days everything will be running smoothly. Freight was moved Sunday. A number of men have arrived here and, it is expected, will go to WOrh III LIlb ydIuS, LII HIS hSLlCL Vice-President Fitzpatrick says: We must ooncede that the position of the company is Justified. We have told hhe company that our organization would do it's duty fearlessly and pro- tect It's contracts. Members are cau- tioned to remain at work and pay no attention to those who may try to in- fluence them to jeopardize their posi- tions and contracts, as the brother hood will cooperate with the com pany."
 Much of the congestion of freight cars on the tracks in the local yards is dis appearing by reason of the energy dis played by the yardmen who are at work. A number of long through freights were made up during the night and most of the tracks in the vicinity of the station were cleared. Many of the striking switchmen gathered at the Crown street headquarters during the forenoon, but few of them were in a talkative mood.

In 1899 she was forced to leave New Or leans with Theodore Jackson, whose wife she then said she was They were playing the spirit materializatlon game there, and 1t was said they were running a 'frutarian" colony in Flort- da. A year later they turned up In Cape Town, where Mime.

Diss Debar to establish a colony Of brotherly love- The institution that she and Jackson were running at that | time was called by them the College of Occult Sciences"
 Later the pair appeared In London, where they promoted the Theocratic Unity organization, scandals in connec- | ton with which led to their arrest Il | September. 1901. The trial which con- tnued at intervals through three months, developed facts of such a loathsome character that several of the London papers excluded from their col umns all reports of the proceedings in court. Jackson assumed defiant at titude towards public sentiment and the law and had to be warned by the presiding judge that he was injurdng his case.
 Tn the course of her evidence Mime. Diss Deebar asserted that she had an income of $14O00 yearly from the es- tate of her former husband, General Dss Debar. While admitting that she had served six months in jail in New York for defrauding Marsh she de- nied that she had ever been known under the name of Vera P. Ava.
 Justice Bingham summed up strongly against the prisoners, saying it was difficult to conceive of more revoltng and abominal conduct than that which had been attributed to them. He add cd that he would not be doing his duty unless he prevented the male prisoner from practicing such filthy acts under the cloak of religion for some years to come. The jury was absent from. the court room less than five minutes, and returned with the verdict of guilty, whereupon Justice Bingham sentenced Jackson to fifteen years penal servl- tude and his reputed wife to seven years penal servitude. Mime Diss De- bar heard the sentence smilingly, and bowed politely to the justice as she left the court room.
