POLICE STOP HOG RUSH
Latest Duty of New York Policemen
Is to Teach Street-Car
Etiquette.

New York, Aug. 25.--A new func-
tlon that has just been added to the
many which the New York police
are called upon to perform. Their
newest duty consists In teaching
politeness to the male inhabitants OF
the city. The reform has been in
troduced where II undoubtedly was
most urgently needed, at the Man
haitian end of the Brooklyn bridge.
The congestion at this point every
evening at the rush hour is un-
equalled anywhere else In the world
and has aroused the anger and dis
gust of those who have had occa-
sion to witness It, The waiting
crowd has swarmed over the cars be-
fore they came to stop and In the
mad rush women naturally had
little chance to secure seats. Cap
tain Bourke. who has charge OF the
police at this point, determined TO
change this state OF affairs. For
the past few evenings he has lined
up his men and compelled the crowd
to wait until the cars came to stop
|, before attempting to board them and
then has given the women first
chance to secure seats.

Field Hospital is Established on
Banks Of River by Corps Of Surgeons

to remove part Of the wreck, the day
coach that stood on end fell into tho
gully adding to the debris at the
bottom under which it is possible
few more bodies may be concealed.
Numbers of the wrecking crew had
narrow escapes from the big car as
II, slid along the trestle before it
plunged downward
A narrowing aftermath of the
wreck is the scantiness of means OF
identifying the victims. Rescuers in
their haste to remove clothing and
effects from the victims. neglected
to keep the various articles near the
bodies OF many of the dead.
Two theories for the cause of the
wreck have been advanced. The
road was blocked for several hours
and II was necessary to send the
west bound train over the New York
Central tracks via Lyons.

Atwood's safe landing on Cover
nor's island, after flying from Nyack,
New York above the Hudson through
a fog which made him only dimly
visible to the millions of eyes that

in the ANNALS of the air:
He not only broke the worlds rec
ord, covering 1896 miles in an air
line, OF perhaps 100 more miles
with his detour but he few all the
way in the same bl-plane and with
no important mishap.
As Fast As Trains.

to that made by fast trains for he

over night. He landed smilingly
hstless and hungry in the arms ol
a handful of United States army off
GERS and men who hailed him as
Americas greatest aviator. VI

on Governors Island, as 1t had beer
heralded that he would land at the
Sheepshead Bay race track where
thousands lined vantage points look
ing skyward. Atwood expressed re.
gret at their disappointment.
