smashed off one of the swinging

The automobile was slightly dam

replace the fence and gate In their
original position: The car contained
two women, a man and a chauffeur.
The man gave his name as E. R..
Siering, of 365 Clinton street, Brook
lyn, and the car bore New York IL
cense No 1896. The car was stand
ing on the hill leading to the ferry.
When the gates were opened the
chauffeur started the car, but for
some reason was unable to clear the
fence and the car crashed into the
gate and post.

DAUGHTER LURED
To n. !. CITY,
MOTHER SAYS

Fearing that her seventeen-year-
old daughter, Mary, has been lured to
New York by a man with evil de-
signs. Mrs. Mary Zackman, of 80
Pearl place, applied to the police to
find her daughter and protect her
from her alleged abductor, yesterday
morning. Mrs. Zackman declared she
believed stranger from New York
had lured her daughter to that city.
She said that the young woman had
left home about o'clock Saturday
afternoon and that she believed that
the man whom she went with was a
John Island, of New York.
Detective Sergeants Huff and Long
went to the home this morning and
learned that the girl had not re-
turned. They secured a picture of
her, and Chief Burke forwarded it to
the New York authorities in an eff
fort to have the girl located.
According to the story told by Mrs.
Zackman, her daughter received a
telephone call from the man calling
himself John Island" and that then
arrangements were made for her
daughter to meet the man in New
York. The young woman hurriedIy
ueeii Su hCi SCil III licl u6St CLOTHES ana
left the house. That was the last
Mrs. Zackman saw of her daughter,
she told the detectives who called on
her this morning.
1t seems that the young woman
had met the man in question through
Irritation, and her mother knew but
little OF him, which made her anxious
about her daughter when she left
home and did not tell her where she
was going and after staying away
since Saturday afternoon.
The detectives learned that the
young woman had gone to New York
by way of the Staten Island railroad
and, to prevent her parents knowing
where she was going, had taken a
bundle Of clothes and her little sister
to the ferry house at the foot of
Smith street and there changed her
dress and sent the discarded apparel
back by her sister.
Late today the police were notified
that the girl. who had been missing
since Saturday, had returned. Her
mother said that the girl declared
that she had only been to Plainfleld.
This is not believed by the mother,
or the detectives who traced her to
New York. The young woman said
she had only been visiting q girl
friend over the weekend.

Special TO the EVENING NEWS.

Special TO the EVENING NEWS.
Trenton, March 22.-The fight in
the New Jersey legislature for the
repeal of the full crew railroad law
and in its stead giving to the Public
Utility Commission power to regulate
the size of crews began today at q
hearing before the joint railroads and
canal committee. 1he great interest
in the question was shown by the fact
that hundreds of railroad officials
and employees and representatives of
civic and other public bodies attend
ed the hearing.
The argument was up on two
house bills by Mr.. Stevens, of Cape
May, one repeating the present full
crew law and the other purporting
to give to the utility board the au-
thority to regulate crews. 1t is this
later measure that Governor Fielder
claims contains Joker" so that the
board would have no real power.
Those in favor of the repeater agree
today to substitute bill replacing
both of the others. This gives abso-
lutte power to the utility board to
direct any railroad to employ such
number of men in its crews as will
afford safe and proper service for the
protection of the public and the en-
ployes.
Former Senator William G. Ed
wards. of Jersey City, was in charge
of the speakers in favor of the re-
pealer. Among those who favored
the repeal were: r. L. O'Donnell,
chairman of the committee of the as
sociates railroads of New Jersey,
New York and Pennsylvania, which
are fighting for the repeal; George
and Alan H. Strong, of New Bruins
wick, counsel for the Pennsylvania
railroad; ]. 3. Fisher, general su-
perintendent of the New York divi-
sion of the Pennsylvania; Jackson
&. Reynolds, general attorney for the
Central railroad, aid others. The
state Chamber of Comme cree. which is
favoring the repeal. had several
speakers and State Senator Gaunt,
or Gloucester, master of the State
Grange and several other Grangers;
{ also favored giving the regulation OF
Sgews to the Public Utility Board.

peal were ex-Assem blyman John A.
