FIRST TRAINS
RUN THROUGH
BROOKLYN TUBE

New York. Jan. 9-'rhe first passen-
ger train passed through the new tunnel
between Manhattan and Brooklyn at
12;43 o'clock this morning Starting
from the Bowling Green station on the
Manhattan side OF the river, Il reached
the Borough Hall station in Brooklyn In
sson- ak minutes. and with the starting
back of the train the regular Interboro
service was put into operation.
II was possible 10 accommodate only
small proportion of the enthusiastic
Brvoklynites who came across the river
for the purpose OF seeking the privilege
OF riding IN the first regular passenger
train to cross under the new tunnel
Other trains, however, followed IN quick
succession, but as these were the trains
scheduled TO run from The Bronx to
Brooklyn, the overflow at the Bowling
Green station. who were unable TO board
the first train were unable for some time
to get passage on even these later trains
These trains were packed with Brook
lynites who had come over TO Manhat-
tan to attend the theatres and who had
evidently waited for the opportunity TO
journey home by way OF the new tun-
mel, not only because they wished to get
a glimpse OF It, but to tell what II
seemed like TO get home from the thea
tire district without having to go through
the Ola misery or trarSleTTlng AT tne
Brooklyn bridge and then the even
worse misery of having to cross the
bridge on the crowded trains and trolley
cars. They celebrated their home going
by the new route with many cheer.
and In many OF the cars groups gath
cred and started songs.
When the first train rolled into the
Borough hall the occasion was marked
by the exploding Of bombs and the ring
ing OF church bells. Outside the station
was a band waiting for the passengers
OF the first train and marshalling behind
this band the passengers marched up
Fulton street cheering.
The celebration proper, however. has
been reserved for today, WIN ceremonies
were held In which the officials OF the
two borough administrations and the
heads of the Interborough company took
part.
The lowest depth OF the tunnel Is %
feet below mean high water.
Eight-car trains viii be run through
the tunnel under headway during the
rush hours OF two minutes. Under this
headwsy II will be possible TO carry
easily and comfortably 10000 passengers
through the tunnel The completion OF
the tunnel means that a passenger can
now ride rs miles over an underground
railroad that cost sso,oo0,00o all told. for
a five-cent fare.

JACQUES SET
FREE AFTER
DETENTION

An interesting development In connec-
ton with the Eddy murder case IN Green
Vile. was made yesterday afternoon. The
two Providence inspectors, Monahan and
Iiaran, thought that In the personof Earl
V. jacques. aged 10 years. employed as a
weaver, I'm the Greenville Wooden mill,
they had found the slayer OF the Eddy
woman. At 100 o'clock yesterday after
noon Jacques was taken into custody by
the local police officers. and from that
time until after 1880 O'clock last night he
was prt through a most severe and ex-
haustive examination, during which he
made repeated protests OF his innocence.
At the end of that time he was released
on the advice OF James G. Collins. Jr..
OF this city, formerly assistant attorney
general. legal adviser TO the town OF
Greenvdlle.
The quick release OF young Jacques Is
due largely TO an alibi furnished by his
pretty sweetheart. Miss Irene Taylor. a
handsome and attractive girl OF about 10
years. During the time that suspicious
persons young Jacques was bent upon the
murder OF the helpless Eddy woman for
the sake OF her weeks meagre wages,
some thirteen odd dollars. II has develop
Ell that the young man and his vivacdous
sweetheart were deeply engaged in lover 8
talk at the loom OF young jacques in the
Greenville Woolen mill Friends say that
II has been the custom OF the lovers to
spend some little time here with each
otherl In gossip, in the mill after the
whistle blows, noon. and evenings. and
sometimes before, they say. On Friday
night. as usual the two were together in
the mill. holding communion with each
other. while on the dark. lonely road out
side an UNKNOWN felled the Eddy woman
with heavy stick. From the time the
young man left the girl until O'Clock
when the body was found on the deserted
road. the movements OF young Jacques
have been satisfactorily accounted for.
Tho alibi furnished by Miss Mason
tended TO his quick release.
Direstly after being released from Gus
tody the young man went home. where
his sweetheart was awaiting him with
congratulations for him upon the lift
ing OF all suspicion from his head
With the upsetting OF this clue, Nths
authorities are again at sea- In order 10
encourage a FULLER investigation Of the
murder and the conviction of the slayer
of the woman. w. A. Guile. treasurer OF
the Greeneville woolen company has OF.

ell will offer like amount. thus making
a sum of $1,000 which will fall to the for.

Clark's Hotel and In this alley Mr.. Keith
found much TO remind him of the old
times when his stage door was located
there and through which passed actors
whose names are now known all over the
country. but who at that time were just
making a start as he was.
Within three minutes Mr.. Keith and
his party we're brought 10 n keen reall-
zstion OF the wonderful changes that
have taken place during 25 years. They
had reached again the beautiful marble
lobby of Keiths Theatre. passed through
and up into the old Bijou, which marks
another step I'm the fortunes OF the man
ager, and which. yesterday. showed evil
dences OF an even greater transformation
than it had ever experienced before-one
that when revealed will probably prove
one OF the biggest surprises that Mr..
Keith has yet sprung on the Boston pub
lie. But of that more later. Mr.. Keith
treated the party TO a sight which tn,
public will enjoy later: for the plans ho
has made OF the old Bijou viii make 4.
one OF the most interesting places I'm Bos-
ton.
From the Bijou the party visited tho
Boston Theatre. going over this beautiful.
work of architecture, with Is spacious
marble halls, wide sweep OF stairs. Its
tremendous stage. then back and down
through the new magnificent crystal sub
way 20 Mason street. one OF the most
talked of places In Boston. which Mr.
Keith intends 10 throw open as a public
arcade passageway from Washington
street 10 fremont.
This tour used up the greater part pf
the afternoon and then Mr.. Keith, after
dinner at home returned 60 the theatre
determined. as lac said. to "see the whole
show from beginning 10 end.

THIEVES CHOKE
: AUBURN GIRL
IN HER HOME

Nh and Mrs. Arthur J. Browning. re-
turning 10 their home at 10 Orchard
street after the theatre last night. found
their daughter Edith. aged l6. uncon-
scious on the floor
When the girl was able to talk she de-
clared that during the evening two men.
through n rear window came up behind
her and threatened her With death II she
did not reveal where her parents kept a
large sum OF money.
The girl said that she refused and
thereupon the men forced her TO write
letter OF farewell 10 her father and
mother. declaring that they would kill her
for refusing 10 grant their demands.
Then, Mrs. Browning declares, the men
choked her until she became unconscious.
Miss Dean rs a stepdaughter OF Arthur
Browning. clerk In the Auburn drug
store. Mr.. and Mrs. Browning came 20
this city early last evening 10 attend the
theatre, while Miss Dean remained In
the house, alone. She IL "a music teach
or, and gave lessons To several pupils
during the evening. A few minutes after
10 o'clock she went to the door with the
last pupil, then, re-entering the house,
went to the plano and started TO play

secure the door on closing IT, for she
had been seated bat "A lew minutes. she
says, when, without a sound. a man bent
over her, then seized her about the body
and threw her TO the floor. Another man
stood In the hallway, evidently on tie
lookout for possible interruption.
Fred Morse. who lives in the next house
to the Brownings, let his dog out Tor a
few minutes The dog commenced 10
bark. and this fact undoubtedly saved
Miss Dean from further bodily harm, for
the man suddenly ran from the room, re-
Joined his companion In the hallway. and
together the two fed from the house and
vicinity,
Miss Dean described the man who as
saulted her as large. stout build and with
| reddish moustache. He wore q short

SMELL WROTE

question which the jury will be called
upon to decide Is whether these acts are
an indication OF affection Of the old man

Attorney Edward J. Sweeney, senior
counsel for Riceiard Smell. the only living
son of tho dead millionaire. and who is
endeayoring to break the win. expects 70
prove that such undue influence was ex-
erted. He also expects TO prove that the

to hypnotic influence OF the young
