WILD CLOSE TO MARDI GRAS
Confetti Crammed Down Wom.
ems Throats-200 Arrested.

The Mardi Gras at Coney Island came to
an end In a riot of fun and disorder in the
small hours OF this morning. Nearly two
hundred arrests were made between I
o'clock and midnight for disordery con-
d,act. At sunset hordes Of men and boys
invaded Surf avenue and did their best
TO tempt the strong arm squad to max"
arrests. The most novel form OF amuso-
ment took the form Of examining handfnis
of confetti down the throats Of women and
girls
Patroiman Terence F. Smith, OF the
East 22d street station, Manhattan. arrested
Angelo Parella fifty-one years old, VINE
merchant, Of No. 1F Cherry street. Manhat"
tan, on complaint Of Mrs. Henrietta Jacobs
OF No S76l Broadway. The woman sai1
Parella threw a glass OF wine into her race
as she was riding in an auto NJ SURF ave
nue. and West Sth street. The extract OF
the grape not only got into her eyes, caus-
ing them to smart. but also ruined her
best gown, she declared, and ParelIa WA
held for disorderly conduct
I'D to O'Clock the police had not inidi
an arrest. In two hours and half after
that hour fifty dlsturbers were dragged to
the police station. The police made good
their promise TO close everything up tsnt
a. soon after midnight as possible. Ihey
did not, however. drive the Dacchanaiiah
professions of the island at the stroke OF
12. as they have done after the Mardi
Gras in previous years.
The Manhattan end Of the BrooHlyn
Bridge was jammed last night with thou
sands Of persons who overfowed the o'at-
forms OF the elevated trains and blocked
the pedestrian walks Of the bridge. The
1hrongs had come In the trains from Cohey
Island.

WANTED TO BRING BLOOD
Teacher Of Languages Slashes
Breast with Penknife.

Joseph Azekiel, who is said 10 be .,
teacher of languages, living at No. 80
East 114th street, The Bronx. was taksn
to the Lincoln Hospital in a straitjacket
last night after Patrolman McCarton.
OF the Alexander avenue station. had
made severai attempts 10 make the man
cease slashing his breast and arms with
penknife. Azekiels sister found him
standing in front of mirror. clad only
in his pajamas cutting himself, and tele-
! phoned for the police.
The patrolman says he asked Azekiel
what he was doing and that the man
replied that he wanted TO see how much
| blood would come out Of him. McCar-
ton demonstrated with him and at
tempted 10 persuade him TO put on his
clothes and go with him. but the man
refused and ordered the officer out Of
the room. Patrolman Repetti responded
to McCartons call for help and DR..
Wright came from the hospital.
They found much difficulty In handling
Azekiel who resisted all efforts TO put
his clothes on, so 1t was necessary to
place him under the restraint afforded
by a straitjacket
Azekiel came to New York about three
weeks ago from South Africa where he
had been living with his sister, who ac-
companied him to this city. His sister
said last night that her brother had
found difficulty In obtaining work here
and was discouraged. His wounds are
not serious, and he will be transferred
to Bellevue for observation as to his
mental condition.

first day the sanatorium was provided
with poor measures of protection ana
that a repetition Of the attempt against
the life of NJ. Stolypin could have been
carried out with the greatest ease.
The Kiev correspondent Of the "Novoe
Vremva" says that Colonel Kuliabko,
chief Of the secret police at Kiev, Will be
discharged and later will be prosecuted
before the courts. At the inquiry. the
correspondent says. Kuliabko broke
down and said that Bogroff was men,
Der Of a revolutionary committee and at
the same time police agent several
years ago.
At the time of the student disorders in
1906 he betrayed the student ringleaders
and gained the confidence Of his superb
ors. After 1907 Bogroff was not In the
regular service, but was employed by the
police only occasionally. short time
ago Bogroff informed the police that the
Social Reyolutionists would make an at
tempt against the lives Of Premier
Stolypin and Of the Minister OF Educa-
tion. The choice had fallen upon a GER
tain woman terrorist, Nina Alexan-
drovna, assisted by man known by the
nickname of Nicholas"
Colonel Kuliabko Informed NJ. Stoly-
pins secretary and his adjutant of this.

he hesitated.

He received ticket for the theatre an
hour before the gala performance began.
After the first act Bogron. perceivng
I the looseness of the police measures OF
protection, conceived the idea of a more
distinguished victim and went outside
the theatre TO inspect the street entrance
to the imperial box. On leaving the the
atre he surrendered his admission card
TO the officer on duty, and when he re-
turned the officer would not allow him
to re-enter. Bogroff showed his secret
police credentials. and still the officer
continued obdurate. Finally Colonel
Kuliabko was called and personally per-

In the foyer, toward the end of the
second intermission, Colonel Kuliabko
said to Bogroff: This is the last inter-
mission; the next act Will be short one.
Go on TO the square and watch for Nina
Alexandrovna."
Bogroff replied "All right" and passed
down the corridor in the opposite direc-
ton. He went straight TO where the
Premier was sitting.
Governor Giers was not informed re-
garding Colonel Kuliabko's dealings with
Bogroff. He says that he established
the principle of the police utilizing the
information of revolutionary spies, but
never employing them as an actual body

had admitted a Jew TO the theatre, as il
had been decided not TO admit Jews. with

with the decoration of a little
Christmas tree, but on Dec, y he
was taken away to Roosevelt

He went away smiling still,

given him his name.
Smiling Joe" is known the

His smiling face helped to bring
