DIDN'T TRY TO AID
PR|S0NER--REBSCH
Accused Policeman Asserts He
Only Said He Could
Find Woman.

In report submitted today TO Act
ing Chief, of Police Ryan. Patrolman
Rebsch. Of the First Precinct denies
emphatically that he interferred in
any manner in the disposition of the
case in which Mary Garland, of PIT
Plane street was implicated in be-
fore Judge Herr in the Fourth Pre-
cinct Court yesterday morning.
The officer is charged by Judge Herr
and Captain Oscar Vogel of the
Fourth Precinct with trying to have
the woman paroled in his custody
after she had been held in 5000 bail
as. material witness against a man
whose arrest she had caused on the
charge that he had assaulted her, and
who was held for the grand jury in
$500 bail.
Bebsch stated that he had gone
to the Fourth Precinct station to see
one of the plainclothesmen in regard
to case which he had reported, and
that when the woman was held, he
remarked that he knew her and that
she could be gotten any time she was
wanted. He denied that he had made
the remark with any idea of chang
ing the decision of the court.
Captain Vogel telephoned to Acting
Captain Caffrey Immediately after the
incident, and the latter requested a
statement from Rebsch.
In spite of the officers emphatic de-
NAL that he was other than casually
interested in the case, it is confident
ly expected that Judge Herr will in
sist that the matter be investigated
by the Board of Police Commission
ers.
Those who were in the court room
at the time of the incident insist that
Rebsch approached Judge Herr while
on the bench, and it is alleged that
the officer later admitted in the
judges chambers that he did remark,
II know the woman. | am an officer
in the First Precinct and | can get
her at any time"
At Rebsch interference and later
his denial Judge Herr became very
indignant and Immediately instructed
Captain Vogel to communicate with
Rebsch's commander. Acting Captain
Caffrey, and tell him that he should
thoroughly investigate and ascertain
what relations. If any, existed be-
tween the officer and the woman.

Meet
to @. X. Strike

NEW YORK, July 12.-Union
leaders representing 100000 trainmen
and conductors on forty-five eastern
railroads gathered in New York city
today to ratify the strike vote taken
recently and to plan for submitting
to the roads on Monday next their
ultimatum with reference to the 20
per cent. wage increase which the
roads have refused to grant.
The vote showed "a per cent. of the
employees ara in favor of enforcing
their demands with a strike. Ratih-
cation of this today was to be pure
ly perfunctory, but those who have
followed the situation predict that,
Notwithstanding the unyielding stand
taken by both sides, there will be no
walkout.
Some sort of federal Intervention
is expected, provided no basis for
negotiations can be reached.

RUSSELL SAGE AND THRIFT
Apostle Of Saving Was Finaneler Who
Died Worth More Than Sixty
Millions.

It has been developed, as the result
Of a suit in New York, that the late
Russell. Sage left an estate Of $685..
100000. 1t was generally supposed that
the financier was a very rich man at
the time Of his death, but few persons
imagined that his holdings would run
into SO many millions of dollars. He
was unique figure in many ways. and
while he was never very popular, few
persons questioned his personal in.
tegrity. He might fairly be called the
Apostle Of Thrift. A man who made
his lunch from an apple or two, and
who spent little or nothing on per.
sonal adornment or pleasure, was
bound. in the nature Of things, to &C.
cumulate money.
Some persons are apt to disdain the
habit Of saving and to say that for.
tunes are rarely built in that way,
They seem to imagine that enormous
sums OF money are the result Of reck
less speculation and that the poor man
has little or no chance In this feverish
age. It has been homorously said tina,
the great effort consists In getting the
first million and that after that II
comes easily. We cannot all be Rus
sell sages, but thrift. accompanied by
industry and brains, is bound to meet
with success.
