GIRL, IS, TELLS OF
BRUTAL TREATMENT
Helen Reddington Declares in
Court That Mother Gave
Her to Man.

Thirteen -year-old Helen Reddington
tol6 @ story of brutality in the Third
Precinct, Police Court today that sent
a shudder of horror through her audi
tors
She said that her mother, Mrs. Mary
Reddington. had surrendered her to
Marco Amariscano. thirty-eight years
old, of II Alyea street, one night, md
that he had bound her hands ber,nd
her back, tied her feet with a sneet
and subjected her to atrocious mis-
treatment
Her clear, childish treble rang
through the courtroom as she pointed
an accusing finger, first at her mother
and then at Amariscano.
Amariscano was held in $4,000 bail
for the grand jury. Mrs. Reddington
and herS husband Martin were held in
$4,000 bail each as material wit
nesses. All made complete denials.
Michael Murano, a justice of the
peace, was held in $500 bail also as a
material witness. After the alleged
assault on the girl he had been asked
by her parents to draw up an agree
ment showing their consent to her
marriage to Amariscano, The usual
printed form of consent for minors
was duly signed and executed.
Judge Hahn said that he was not
altogether satisfied with the issuance
of the agreement in this case, and he
consequently held Murano as wit
ness.
The alleged mistreatment of the girl
was brought to the attention of Cap
tain Christie of the Third precinct,
by one of her uncles, John Redding,
of 1853 McWhorter street.
Michael ]. Ryan, of the Catholic
Children's Aid Association, also in
vestigated the case. He testified in
court today tkat he had found Mrs.
Reddington, with Helen, had gone to
live with Amariscano after her hus-
band had been sent to jail several
months ago. They lived together, so
he said, at 20215 Astor street, at 92
Tichenor street, and finally at II AL
yea street. where Martin Reddington
Joined them.
Amariscano was arrested by Court
Officers Eckerline, Remondrelli and
Rommeihs, of the First Criminal
Court, yesterday. The parents were
brought into court on sumnionses.
Helen is being cared for temporarily

P. R. R. FL|ER IN
DOUBLE WRECK
NEAR WAVERLY
Smashes Into Cattle Train That
Had Been in Collision
With Engine.

100 Cattle Killed and Traffic
Delayed, but Wreckage Is
Soon Cleared.

travelling at a rate of thirty miles
an hour train No. 81 of the Penn
sylvania, bound for st. Louis, crashed
into cattle train at Waverly shortly
after midnight last night. The cat
tie train a few minutes previous col
lided with light engine near the
Waverly freight yards, killing over
a hundred sheep and demolishing two
cars.
The accident happened near what
is known as NJ. r. tower. The flyer
tore through the centre of the train
piling up the wreckage in all direc-
tions and strewing the bodies of the
dead animals for distance of 200
yards along the tracks. A number
of the animals which were not killed
outright were so badly MANNED tha
they had to be killed.
Debris Son Cleared.
A wrecking crew OF hundred men
were imediately rushed to the scene.
They cleared the wreckage within
three hours, allowing the regular
day trains to keep up to schedule
time, although the flyer was held up
for four hours.
No one was injured, although the
passengers on the flyer were thrown
from their berths and otherwise bad
ly shaken up. Many persons were at
tracted to the scene by the crash.
The freight train, which was east
bound, had sixteen cars. 1t was go
ing at a fast rate of speed when it
coilided with the light engine which
was standing near a switch directly
in it's path. Almost simultaneously
the flyer, which left Manhattan trans
fer at midnight, came along and
crashed head-on into the train.
The engine ploughed it's way
through the centre of the train for
distance of over a hundred yards
before 1t was finally brought to a
stop. John Hayes, the fireman, had
a miraculous escape. He was slightly
cut by flying splinters of wood.
The light engine was completely de-
rallied, although the engine of the
freight train remained on the tracks
Fearing some one was injured, ar
ambulance and three doctors were
hurried to the scene from the Genera
Hospital of Elizabeth The Newarl
police reserves also arrived. but theii
services were not required.
The officials of the road. in explain
ing the accident. stated that the light
engine should not have been at thai
point at that hour. An investigation
is being made by J. r. Fisher. super

.BREMNER RAD|UM
CURE IS RESUMED
Each Application Weakens
Congressman, but General
Condition Is improving.
IFrom a stan Correspondent

BALTIMORE, Jan. 15.-Congress-
man Bremner is again undergoing the
radium treatment, which has been
suspended for the last few days.
He continues to show Improvement,
but a member of this family states
that during the radium treatment he
appears weaker than OF other times.
Dr. Howard A. Kelly declines to
make any statement regarding his
patient; this has been his attitude
from the day his patient entered the
sanitarium.
Mr.. Bremner is disinclined to talk
about the treatment or its effects,
other than to tell his friends that he
is feeling better. That he suffers a
great deal is known to his intimates,
but not from any word or complaint
made by him. His buoyancy and
cheerfulness even when suffering
most is one of his chief character
istics.
His chief concern just now appears
to be regret that he cannot be in his
seat in the House of Representatives,
but he keeps in close touch with all
that is going on through the news
papers and by the special messages
that are sent him by his colleagues.
He also endeavors to keep up with
his official duties by correspondence.
His sister, who acts as his secretary,
visits him every afternoon and he
dictates letters to her. He has been
urged frequently to drop all thoughts
or work, but he declares that he can
not do that altogether and insists
upon doing certain amount of work
each day.
His attending nurse usually has to
call a halt upon him, and he good
naturedly acquiesces.

in his apartments in Brooklyn.
Mr.. Lankford was forty-six years
old. On Saturday he was to have

Brooklyn society girl. So far as is

Battered,
26 Hours Late

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-With her
bridge torn away by giant sea and
her decks deep in snow. the steamship
Oceanic, of the White Star line, came
in today from Southampton twenty
six hours late She brought 1862 pas
sengers. 1t was on Tuesday, during
o gale that carried with it sleet, hail
and snow, that the big sea came
aboard. 1t tore it's way along the
forward deck and mounted to and
over the bridge. The rails of the
bridge crumpled before it like paper.
while the wash of water continued
along the decks and carried away
everything Avable. The steering
gear on the Sige was deranged, and
for two hours the rudder could not
be operated from that point.

MURDER SUSPECTS
CAUGHT IN NEWARK
Two Men Wanted in Trunk
Mystery Lured to New York
from Here.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-two men.
who were arrested in Newark and
brought here by a ruse to avoid ex-
tradition, are being held today as
suspects in the trunk murder mystery.
They are Charles Draniewicz. in whose
fiat at 529 East Eleventh street, Ivan
Martysewicz, the victim, died, and
John ARabinoff, of 172 Ferry street.
Both men are thought to have hidden
in Newark since the body of Mar
tysewicz was found in trunk at
noon on December 20.
Detectives who speak several Slavic
dialects went to Newark disguised as
laborers and visited various Down
Neck" saloons. They found the men
they wanted and got into conversa-
ton with them. However, they did
not want to call Newark policemen
and place them under arrest, because
extradition from New Jersey would
take too long. They decided, If pos
sible, to lure the two men back to
New York, where they might be ar
rested.
They told Draniewicz, also known
as Karal Damn, and Rabinoff, also
known as Lenka, that they had just
come down from work in Rocqland
county and wanted to go to New
the two men to go with them, but
they baked, until the detectives
promised to give them spending
money and pay the expenses of the
trip in return for guidance to gam
bling and other resorts.
The party of four boarded a tube
train for New York. When the train
reached Hudson Terminal the detec-
tives flashed their badges and told
Draniewicz and Rabinoff they were
under arrest.
The two prisoners were held at the
Clinton street station until about
noon, when they were brought over
to headquarters to be examined by
Deputy Commissioner Dougherty, In
spector Faurot and Assistant District
Attorney Breckenridge. According to
information made public by Mr..
Dougherty, the two men admitted
that they had seen Martysewicz in
the fiat which Draniewicz has since
abandoned, and that he partook free
ly of beer, wine and whiskey. On
Saturday night they say they discov-
cred that he was dead. Rabinoff
held a mirror to his mouth, they
said, to make sure that he was dead.
Detectives Blaha and Plfaster also
succeeded in finding late yesterday
afternoon the two other women who
were inmates of the East Eleventh
street fiat with Mary Bodner, now
under arrest in the Tombs charged
with robbing a Pole by the use of
Knockout drops" The two women,
Stefka Kwialtowska, of l03 Second
street, and Carrie Majbenheimer, of 33
Avenue A, were arrested at 80 Ave-
nue. d. They confessed, according to
the police, that they had been ac-
customed to lure men to the East
Eleventh street fat and that the men
who ran the fiat robbed most of their
visitors by drugging them with
Knockout drops in their beer.

No Interference With the

WASHINGTON, Jan 15.-That the
President is against any radical dis
turbance of the civil service law is
generally conceded.

of federal employees from all parts
of the country were received in the

while politics were not discussed, the
delegates left with the belief that the

ALL SAVED FROM
Liner COBEQU|D,
INPA[ED ON ROCK
Members of Crew, Who Re-
mained Aboard After Passen=
gers Rescue, Removed.

ST. JOHN, N. B., Jan. 15.-Cap-
tain Hawson and the eleven men who
remained on the Cobequid last night
were taken on board the government
steamer Lansdown today and are on
their way here.
The Cobequid will be total loss
A wireless message to the agents
of the line said that the third Of
ficer. r. F. Powell, was injured dur
ing the night, and was in need of
medical attention.
YARMOUTH, n. s., Jan. 15.-The
twenty -four passengers and seventy
two members of the crew of the Royal
Mail steamer Cobequid, rescued yes
terday We're comfortably housed here
this morning and recovering from the
effects of their long exposure to icy
winds and waves
ImpaIed on Rock.
The Cobequid, impaled on Trinity
Rock, six milesAoff Port Maitland. was
badly smashed and coated with ice,
but the captains cabin remained in
tact. The government steamer Lans-
downe stood by throughout the night,
prepared to take off the twelve men,
if conditions become too dangerous.
Captain McKinnon. of the West
port, the little coastal steamer which
rescued seventy-two persons, said to-
day that when he came alongside the
Cobequid he found all the passengers
and crew in the captains cabin, the
only dry spot on the steamer. The
seas were breaking over the main
deck. The Cobequid was lying headed
to the westward, with the bow down
and the stern well out of water.
All of those taken on board the
Westport left the Cobequid in the
three boats launched by the crew of
the wrecked vessel Notwithstanding
the gale and the boiling sea, the
transfer was accomplished within two
hours without accident. The nine
women and children among the pas
sengers were the first to be taken
from the Cobequid and hauled aboard
the Westport.
Official Blames None
William C. Kenny, an official of
the company owning the Cobequid,
who was on board at the same time
of the wreck, said today; mo one
was to blame for the loss of the ship.
The weather conditions were against
US. The position of the ship for the
first twelve hours after striking was
critical, the bottom breaking eventu
ally.
'sShe lost her steam and conse-
ouently we were without lights or
fire. Until we left the ship, we were
in the captains and ladies' rooms
and few in the smoking rooms, liv-
ing on biscuit and corn meal. The
discipline of the crew was excellent
and there was no sign of panic or in
subordination.
The officers and the passengers of
the ship will probably remain in
Yarmouth a few days.
