Of Nearly 800 on Board Coast

CAPTAIN OF MATSU MARU
GOES DOWN WITH SHIP
Grew Try to Stem Panic, but
Vessel Sinks SO Quickly
Effort Is Futile.

TOXIC, March 23.-The Matsu Maru,
a coasting steamer belonging to the
Nippon Yusen Kaisha line, was sunk
in collision with the Hideyoshi Maru
today two miles from Todohokke, near
Hakodate The captain of the Matsu
Maru, ma ajority of her 244 passengers
and 43 of the crew perished. The Hide
yoshi Maru and another steamer res
cued the survivors.
When the vessels crashed together
in the dense fog it was at once seen
that the Matsu Maru was badly injured,
and while panic ranged on her decks,
the Hideyoshi, recovering from the
shock, stood by TO aid. On the stricken
vessel her crew of forty-three tried to
stem the fear of the 244 passengers on
her list, but as the vessel sank in a
very few minutes little could be done
to save the tcrror-mad people on her
decks.
Tn the meantime, another coaster
drew near to lend hand in the work
of rescue, but of all the crew and pas
sengers less than forty escaped. One
of those lost was the captain of the
Matsu Maru, who with his officers,
stuck to his ship as she sank.

DR.. BONDY HELD
IN $1,000 BAIL ON
WOMANS CHARGE
Physician, Accused of SwindIe,
Had Been in Trouble in Bay
onne, Police Declare.
MIXED UP IN MALPRACTISE
AND BAD CHECK CASES
Now Poor Newark Woman Says
He Got 500 from Her and
Then Sent Her to Hospital.

Charged with taking money under
false pretenses, DR.. Sigmnnd e. Bondy,
of so Rose street, was arraigned in the
First Precinct Court today. lie was ar
rested yesterday by Detective Sergeants
Tuite and Horter and. though he
boasted he would quickly get bail. spent
the night in a cell.
DR. Bondy pleaded not guilty, and
was held by Judge Howell in $1,000 bail
to await examination on Wednesday.
His bondsman was not in court, nor
was he represented by counsel. A mes
scnger was dispatched for someone to
bail him out
Bondy came here from Bayonne,
where he left a somewhat unpleasant
past. His latest trouble is caused by
the allegation of Mrs. Kate Durisch, Of
So Jones street. that he agreed to per-
form an operation on her for hernia
and then sent her to st. Michaers Hos
pital as a free patient.
The exposure came about through DR..
Edward Ill, the well-known surgeon.
DR.. I'll was preparing to perform the
operation In the hospital when Mrs.
Duriscll told him that she had paid $50
raised by her friends. She produced
her receipt 10 back up her assertion.
Dr. I'll promptly advised her to have
DIR. Bondy arrested. as he says the lat
ter told him the woman couldn't afford
to pay.
AT police headquarters today DIR. Ill
said: Il have frequently heard of ply
sicans getting money in this manner
and then turning their patients over
to the hospital staffs, but l could never
get proof. feel very angry over such
unprofessional conduct, and l am de-
termined to do everything to put a
stop to it,"
Detective Sergeants Horter and Tuite
had to resort to ruse to arrest Bondy.
Horter called up the physician's office
and represented that his wife was sick.
AS Bondy left the house Tuite tapped
the doctor on the shoulder and placed
him under arrest
About three years ago, according TO
Chief of Police John Yore, of Bayonne,
Bondy was tried at Hudson General
Sessions for performing an illegal OPP
Grafton on a young society woman of
the Bergen Point section The jury
disagreed. Previously he had been in
trouble in connection with some worth
less checks, but got out of it.
DR.. Sigmund Bondy for some time
had an Office and residence in DAN
forth avenue, in the Greenville section
of Jersey City. About three years ago
a young girl was taken to Christ Hos
pital, when it was discovered that lap
aratomy had been performed. The
police made an investigation and DR..
RondV was arrested for malpractise.
The operation was performed at a
roadhouse kept by a Mrs. KATE Peters.
on the trial of the case the jury failed
to agree and the doctor was set free.
Mrs. Peters's excise license was re-
yokd by the Police Board, and for a
time the place was kept closed.

West Twenty-third street, Manhattan
and beauty retreat for women" at
Steinway, L. l., Ernest Rost, the we'll
known proprietor of the Central bowl
ing alleys in Market street, said to m
EVENING STAR reporter today:
II know nothing of any suit alleged
to have been brought by my daughter
against Nine. Mays. I can say, how
ever, that surety company will vouch
for my handling of her property
Miss Clara, the 19-year- old daughter
of MIR. Rost, is now suing Nine. Julia
Mays for $1,000. alleged to have been
given Nine Mays by Rost, Nine. Mays
WAS named as correspondent in a di-
vorce suit brought by Mrs. Fost several
years ago.
Nine. Mays declared today tEat she
had not been served with the papers in
the suit. Norwood and Marden, New
York attorneys who represent Miss
Rost. have had an attachment placed
on the Steinway property which is
valued at $4,000. The following state
ment was given out today at their
Office:
"When Miss Rost was a child she
was injured in a trolley accident. She
sued and recovered 10000. Her father.
who was made guardian, invested the
money in mortgages, loaning $4,000 on
one parcel of Brooklyn land. Early in
1906 this mortgage was paid off. and
Rost, we contend, turned the check
over 10 Nine. Mays TO help her pay
for her Steinway property. This prop
erty stands in the name of her nephew,
James W. Mays.
"In August. 1907 Rost was removed
as guardian and Edward p. Floyd-Jones
appointed in his stead. Mr.. Floyd
Jones is bringing this action, which is
directed against Mime. Mays and her
nephew.
Mrs. Rost, speaking for her daughter,
said.
Mime. Mays was named as corespon-
dent in my suit for divorce, brought
three years ago. / obtained a decree.
Mr.. Rost has spent 4 great deal of the
money / inherited from my father, as
wen as the interest from my daughter s
property, while he was her guardian
Mr.. Rost. however. declares that lie
has nothing to fear from the outcome
Of the suit, and that he has done moth
ing wrong with his daughters money.
He denies the statement made by Mrs
Rost that he squandered money Pher-
tied by her.
