THREE ARE DEAD
In CRASH OF CARS
Carelessness Causes Wreck
on Electric Line.

Hackensack. N. J., July 2l.-Thres men
are dead and a dozen more passengers
were seriously injured this afternoon
when two cars on the North Jersey
Rapid Transit Company's trolley line
met in a head-on collision between
Prospect and Grove streets. Ridgewood.
The dead are John Hutchins, motor
man. whose body was horribly crushed.
and F. ]. Pilgrim. superintendent Of
the transit company. who suffered In
ternal injuries, and John Frotalle.
Supt. Pilgrim was travelling south
with a wildcat car, bent on getting a
party of children who had been on an
outing in Paterson. II is the general
opinion that he was trying to steal
the Glen Rock switch against the reg
ular.
The sharp curve where the crash oc-
Cured is hidden from either end by
heavy brush, and neither motorman
could prevent a collision, even after
seeing the trouble ahead. The car
laden with passengers was going down
hill at a high rate of speed, and the
two cars telescoped.

GARFIELD PARK
CITIZENS MEET
Prepare Statement Regard
ing Playground Dispute.

Last night a committee consisting of
Levi n. Fouts, chairman; Walter T.
Paine. and Mrs. Torvald solberg drew
up q statement which will be presented
to the District Commissioners the
Playground Association. and probably
to the House and Senate committees on
the District, regarding the removal of
the playground from Garfield Park.
This statement was not made public, az
the committee will have to report 1t
back to the citizens before 1t is sub
mitted to the District officials.
Information CLEANED, however, indi-
Gates that the statement Is in the form
OF a sweeping denunciation Of the pol
icy which admits of the use of parks
dedicated to public pleasure. for play
grounds. The citizens claim that the
children are Objectionable in their con-
duct on the playground. and that the
park is mutilated by the presence of
the apparatus installed for amusement.
The playground was opened about three
years ago. Even then the citizens pro-
tested against its existence. The first
equipment was set up in the corner of
the park at F and Second streets south
east. To this citizens particularly OBJ
jected, and they raised by popular sub
scription the sum of S15 to pay for the re-
moval Of the apparatus to another sec
ton of the park remote from residences.
1t was then the Playground Association
made an agreement to keep within GER
tain limits. According to statements,
when James Z. West became secretary
to the association he caused a volley ball
pole to be set about one hundred feet
outside the prescribed boundary. The
citizens made formal protest, to which
no attention was paid. Since then the en-
croachments have continued, and about
a month ago the association gave out
that the whole playground was to be
moved to the corner of the park and F
and Second streets.
This proposal has aroused the citizens
of the vicinity to a high state Of indigna-
ton, and 1t is their hope to rout the
Playground Association and cause the
evacuation OF the park.

POLICE SEARCHING
FOR CLOTHES THIEF
Two Physicians Lose Suits
by Old Ruse.

The police are making an effort to ap-
prehend q negro who Is making a tour Of
physicians offices when they are out on
calls, saying he was sent to get some
clothes to have them cleaned, and who
after getting one or two suits, disappears.
During the last two weeks the police
have been notified OF several cases and
the description tallies in every case.
Yesterday morning about 10 O'Clock
DR.. Robert w. Parkins, of 1893 Fifteenth
street northwest. lost two suits Of clothes
by this route. About an hour later DR..
Charles I. West. of 924 NJ street north
west. lost three suits.
The way in which the negro operates
Is an old dodge; the police say. He
looks at the physicians sign In the
window which tells his office hours and,
after making sure the physician Is not
at home, goes to the house and says he
was sent by the tailor to get one or two
suits Of clothes.

After trailing Thomas Wynn, a
telegrapher, charged with defraud-
ing the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, for two months,
the Washington police yesterday
caused his arrest at Toronto, Can
ada, and Detective Henry Pratt left
the Capital last night at Z O'Clock
to bring him back to this city. De
tective Pratt will arrive in Wash
ington with Wynn probably Mon
day evening. Wynn has consented
to return without requisition pa
pers.
POLICE WERE NOTIFIED.
The Washington police were notified of
the arrest OF Wynn about $50 o'clock by
q telegram from H. J. Grasett, chief
constable Of Toronto, saying he had ar
rested Wynn. who was working under
an assumed name for the Great North
western Telegraph Company. Wynn had
been working a little more than q week
in Canada, having gone there from Buff
falo, n. Y.
With the arrest Of Wynn. the police
four telegraphers, who. 1t is claimed,
obtained more than $1,000 from the West
ern Union Telegraph Company in this
city by means OF fraudulent kilograms.
which they sent to one another, In sums
ranging from SIS to $500. With Wynn.
who is said to have been the ringleader,
were Reeves Wood, alias Hood, who was
arrested on May 10 at the McLennan
Hotel, in Thirteenth street northwest;
Edward Reeves, alias Read, who was
arrested two weeks later in Pfttsburg, and
Orrin Brennan. alias Duskin, who was
arrested about three weeks ago in st.
Louis, and brought to this city in charge
of a United States marshal
According to indictments, the men used
the Western Union code in sending money
orders. The first telegram, on which 1t
is alleged SO was collected on May l,
read as follows:
PAY to Edward J. Read, 511h Twelfth
street northwest, Washington, 'homily
kitchen. from Mrs. Mary Read, at At
lantic, Iowa. Caution"
Words in the Code.
The words "homily kitchen" were the
code Of the telegraph company, which,
1t is alleged, Reeves Wood, alias Hood,
obtained while he was in charge Of u
Western Union telegraph office in
Georgia. The word caution meant that
Read must be>properly identified before
the money would be turned. over to him.
The indictment further charges that an
other telegram, on which $50 was OBJ
tanned by use Of the code words, was
sent on May 4, and was payable to
Read. Another telegram sent on May 8
was payable to Thomas Wynn. The last
telegram was for $500, and was the one
that led to detection of the fraud. It
is said that had the telegraphers used
more caution and not sent kilograms for
more than 800 the fraud would have
gone on for several months before be-
ing detected.
The case at the time the frauds were
first made public aroused much interest
throughout the country. inasmuch as 1t
a telegraph company.
Wynn is we'll known in this city. He
has a brother who is purchasing agent
for the Southern Railway. The cases of
the others accused have not been tried
owing to the absence of Wynn, and 1t
Is now probable they will be heard as
soon as the routine of the Criminal Court
calendar will allow.
