Chase After TOrmentOrs

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Cole, of Morristown, N. j.,
were members of Brooklyn auto
mobile party last night which figured
In an exciting chase of another ma
chine containing two young men,
who. as they passed the car In which
the Jersey folk were riding, hurled
insulting remarks at Mrs. Cole and
Mrs. Charles T. Davis. wife of the
owner of the machine, who was
driving.
Davis, who is a wealthy Flatbush
manufacturer. was angered by the
actions of the young men, so he
chased after them. He finally over
took the fugitives on Surf avenue,
Coney Island, and arrested them per-
sonally.
The prisoners gave their names as
Alexander Kirsch. nineteen, of l2S
West One Hundred AMI Eighteenth
street, and BENJAMIN Friebelson,
eighteen. of 6S Lenox avenue, Man
haitian.
In the Coney Island police station
the two well-dressed prisoners were
held in $500 ball each to appear be-
fore Magistrate Mcguire in the COMFY
Island Police Court this morning TO
answer charges of, disorderly conduct.
Mr.. Davis and Mr.. Cole were sitt-
ing in the front seats, Mrs. Davis ana
Mrs. Cole In the rear seats. mrs.
Davis was holding her little son IN
her lap.
AS the other car dashed past, Davis
says, his Indignation was aroused to
white heat by the actions of young
Kirsch and Friebelson. He said they
jumped up in the rear of the car,
turned and yelled at his wife and
Mrs. Cole.
"Ah. there. dearies! o you sweet
ness!"
And then gave way to a spasm of
adulation, expressed by a furious
throwing of kisses toward the two
matrons.

"While we were still youngsters our
parents died" said Oliver. "A fam

my brother and he took their name.
This is how he came to go by that

crash came. His bank was on the
point of bankruptcy.
When ne started for New York to
draw on financial resources he had
there amounting to s126,000 in cash,
he was arrested at the instance of
alarmed depositors who thought he
was running away. That precipitated
the ruin. He was in the bankruptcy
court and there he says he felt the
