Mary?"
Yes Your honor" she replied. She re-
minded the magistrate that she had been
before him in Special Sessions. The police
say she has been convicted several times
of shoplifting.
The OLD woman reminded the magistrate
of the old days in 1883. when she was
teacher in Nine. Nandelbaum's school for
shoplifterS, at 4th street and Avenue A.
she brought back memories Of Black

turned out shoplifters by the dozen from
her school, which the police at last broke
up.
The old woman was held for Special SEES

to talk to reporters. She said she could not
resist the temptation TO go into department
stores. and that, the best part OF her life
had been spent in prison. she expected to die

The trial OF Vincent Stable, the City Col

day. when his counsel, ex-Judge Joseph. in
troduced several indictments in which the
name of the defendant was John Nc
Grath This is the name of the man killed
by Stable on September % in West 53d street
The defence has tried in many ways TO
show that McGrath was a gang leader and
that he had threatened Stables life There
was some confusion as to the identity Of
the man named in the indictments. and the
question Of admitting them was put off.
Although the court ruled that Il could
not admit the evidence OF two witnesses at
the Coroner's inquest favorable to the de-
PENDANT, who cannot now be fond, Mr..
Hart consented 10 the reading of a tran
script of the evidence. Both OF these wit
nesses testified TO having seen a crowd al

the social consciousness of the young men

Charles Edward Russell struck a particu-

CAN'T SEAT THEN ALL
It's Impossible During Rush
Hours, Says Maltbie.

1t is a physical impOSSibility to provide
seats for every one during the rush hours
in the cars OF New York's various trans
portation systems said Milo r. Maltbie
last night, discussing the work of the Pub
lie Service Commission before the Patria
Club at the Hotel Savoy.
IF passengers left their homes and went
out to the cars in a uniform stream, and
the cars went on at uniform distances from
each other. il would be possible perhaps 10
provide seats for all. but We all want to
go to work about the same time and &c
come back about the same hour. That is
why cars damned full and a little
later a train comparatively empty. Com
paratively empty means, in railway par
lance, that not more than two persons oc-
cupy the car for every seat provided
After dwelling on the vast Importance
of the problem of New York transporta-
ton. due to the fact that New Workers
travel on an average three hundred times
year on a streetcar. Mr.. Maltbie explained
this phenomenon by the difference of con-
ditions between New York and other cities.
Here, he said. the city is divided into dis
tricts, and nobody lives near his work He
told OF the steps taken TO improve the
conditions on the surface cars and then

Yet transportation had been for years the
most serious problem before the people.

he continued, the conditions which are
hardly decent now, will have grown worse.

fat to give each company some paving

"Oh. you will get it all right on Monday,
the full schedule" said Mr.. Hedley. Don't
condemn Il the first day, though, or even
the second. We have $500 men who must
change their hours of duty. 1t will take
three or four days to straighten out the
kinks"
II think you will make it success, if you
really endeavor to do So replied Mr..
Eustis.
We hope TO make ii so. with your CO.

eested that it might be possible to add to
