LID IS ON TIGHT
IN GIEs' GARDEN
Five Policemen Present at Saturday
Nights ance-Lieut. Cook Turns
Away Young Girls.

There was a different tone about
Giles Garden. the dancing and drink
ing Institution, last Saturday night
than there was a week ago. Police
Commissioner Croul certainly made
good In his promise TO The Times to
put the lid securely on the place. In
asmuch as there were five police ON
GERS present at Saturday nights affair
there was little opportunity for any unr
toward proceedings.
The reception accorded The Times
reporter was anything but enthusias-
tic, some of the patrons OF the place
evidently not relishing the breaking
up OF certain practices In the place
I. AS the reporter and q friend left the
garden, some person at the gate made
a threatening remark. Precinct De
tectives Collins and Glinsky provided
very able escort from the garden tc
a Michigan car two blocks away.
The reporter said that an escort
was hardly necessary, but the officers
declared the tone OF the crowd was
anything but friendly, and that sew
eral OF the habitues of the place had
remarked that they were going to be
revenged.
Besides the two precinct detectives
Lieut.. Cook and two patrolmen were
on hand to see that the proprietiet
were observed. Lieut.. Cook woulc
not tolerate any young girls In thu
place.
II turned away at least dozer
girls. who appeared to me to be undeI
16," said the lieutenant. Some ol
them were very indignant and insisted
they were more than 16, but refused
TO admit them. We have to Judge en-
tirely by appearances and II they
don't look old. enough, We don't ie'
them In.
But the most noticeable improve
ment and the most pleasing one Wa
the closing up of the drinking room
The Times man tried to get into the
drinking room, where q week ago Sat
friday night. little girls were drinking
schupers Of beer, and he found the
door nailed up. The door led from
the bar room into the drinking room
and all the girls who drank In thai
room were forced to walk through the
bar room. The police allowed no girls
In the bar room. ~
The change In the conduct Of the
place had a depressing effect upon the
crowd, which came In great numbers
at frst, but which thinned out early
In the evening. The dancing went on
as usual, but the spirit was lacking
Altogether It was a very tame even
ing.
Precinct Detectives Collins and
Glinsky were at the place last Thurs
day night, when q dance was given
and everything was orderly. These
two men have big territory to cover
but just at present they are acting
under orders to see that Gies' Garden
Is kept under restraint.

STEAMER THAT HIT HUGE
ICEBERG REACHES NEW YORK
Nine injured When Columbia, Of the
Anchor Line, Runs Into Frozen
Mass az Sea.

NEW YORK. Aug. THE smashed
bow and torn decks OF the Anchor liner
Columbia, In port yesterday from Glas-
cow. bore silent testimony to the col
lision Of the steamer with huge Ice
berg In mid-ocean last Wednesday.
Nine passengers and sailors were
injured. but despite their cuts,
bruises, broken arms and dislocated
collar bones. all praised the captain
and heaven that the damage was no
worse. Five hundred end ninety-eight
passengers were on board.
So dense was the fog at the time
and so high was the berg out of the
water that no one saw It's top. Those
who were brave enough to tumble out
on deck estimate the height OF the
berg as being 160 feet out of the water
and describe II Of cube information.
AS the bow Of the liner wedged its
way IL feet into the berg, tons
of Ice broke and fell on the deck,
burying the lookout man, Tom Muir
ray, under Il. Nine men worked for
Ave hours Kidding the deck of Its icy
cargo.
The stem OF the Columbia was badly
damaged both above and below the
water line. The port anchor was car
ried away and the starboard anchor
was 30 tightly wedged by the twisting
Of the stem that Il was useless. Water
rushed in and out Of the fore peak as
through selve and pumps had to be
kept going night and day since the
collision happened.
When the liner reached her pier
there was nine feet of water In the
forehold and the bulkheads had been
reinforced by cement. timber and old
mattresses. Until the liner IL put In
dry dock no estimate Of the damage
can be made. but IL was said tonight
before the liner will be At for sea.
