All Trains Are Crowded,
Despite Better Outlook

Despite the lessening Of the tension
in railroad circles, the ingoing and out
going passenger traffic at New YORK
stations continues 20 eclipse records.
Trains across the continent and to
points Middle West and South are run
ming extra cars and often sections, but
are unable to accommodate the demand.
Statements last night from the New
York Central. Pennsylvania. Ne"
Haven and Long Island railroads, how
ever. said the worst was over, and to
day it is expected there will be fewer
hasty departures.
Operators, while more optimistic
than since the strike first doomed up,
continue to 90 forward with emergency
passenger schedules. which are TO be
effective the moment a strike Is called.
While other roads announced they
would make refunds TO commuters II
a strike interfered with the suburban
service. the Long Island sold its 81
600 regular commuters their monthly
tickets with no rebate provision.

SON HAZED. MOTHER SAYS
Suit for $4,000 Brought Against Mil
itary School

Suit for $4,000 was brought against
the New ork Military Academy, at
Cornwall-onH Hudson, yesterday, by
Mrs Frederic Haigh, of Jamaica, Long
Island, on behalf of her son, Bertram,
eighteen years old, who, she says, was
hazed at the institution.
Afidavits by other students, includ-
ing Bertram's roommate, deny knowl-
edge of the occurrence.
School officials said the youth was
expelled in February because he re-
fused TO play in the oand, although
his tuition had been reduced by $500
in return for his services as a musi-
clan. IL is alleged Bertram broke his
French horn and complained he was
getting deaf.
Counsel for the school asked a
change Of venue to Orange County.
Haigh's counsel opposed the motion,
saying the school attorney, County
Judge A. II. F. Seeger, was so popular
there a fair trial would be impossible.
Justice Callaghan reserved decision.

Slave Prosecution Elated
Over Miss Higgins's Arrest

District Attorney Swami said lasJ
night that the indictment and arrest
of Miss Mary Higgins. superintendent
of the Washington Heights Hospital
for aiding in the escape OF young
woman from that institution on June
8. forms a valuable link Of evidence IN
his prosecution Of the white slave COM
bination.
Miss Higgins is in the Tombs. The
girl who escaped from the hospital IL
Clara Brown, nineteen years old, the
daughter of a well-to-do business man
Of Albany. Three years ago she left
home and came to New York. Last
April she was arrested on the streets
and committed TO the Magdalen Home
for Maynard Girls BY Magistrate Bar
low.
"My investigation says the District
Attorney. shows that from that mo-
ment both the authorities Of the home
and even Magistrate Barlow himself
were pestered by mysterious requests
for the girls release. There were fire.
ouent illusions to man OF influence
who wanted to see her freed. Finally,
late in May the girl was taken to the
Washington Heights Hospital for an
operation. We find she was placed in
a private room, and was furnished
with expensive delicacies by some
person outside. Pa.rolman Larkin, of
the West l5Oth Street station, was de-
tailed 10 guard her.
ION the night of June s, while Miss
Helene Bird, the night nurse, was on
duty. she took the Brown girl TO the
bathroom, and, because she was scant-
ily clad. she asked he patrolman 70 re-
tire from his post in the corridor for
a few minutes. That was the last that
was seen Of Clara Brown. Miss Bird
has since confessed that she placed
her own coat over the girl, led her TO
rear entrance and helped her into
a waiting automobile.
an her confession. Miss Bird said
she was acting under the orders OF
Miss Higgins. and was recompensed
BY her for the coat which the girl took
with her. Detectives followed the au-
tomobile 10 the home Of relative OF
Miss Higgins's in West Sixteenth
Street. bu: there lost the trail When
Miss Higgins was arrested she eX-
pressed surprise that il had not oc-
Cured soon after the escape OF the
girl. She will be arraigned for plead
ing before Judge Wadhams next Tues
day"
