Heavy Traffic On
 Railroad Breaks
 Up Train Schedule


 Travel on the railroad today was the heaviest recently encountered by officials At 1 o'clock today it was estimated that nearly 10000 persons had taken passage in this city towards New York. A smaller number were travelling east. Because of similar big rushes at all eastern points additional sections were run on through trains and by noon time today all available passenger coaches had been added to trains leaving this city.
 The added volume of business somewhat disarranged schedules trains reaching this city after noon- time being between and 20 minutes late.
 At 1 o'clock the outgoing crowds had become so dense that railroad off, f1cials had to pull passengers from the forward platforms that the vestibule doors might be closed. Many pre- ferring to wait for later trains than stand in the aisles to Stamford and New York, renounced their scheduled trains for others this afternoon.
 Stationmaster Peter Hunt and his corps of assistants handling the out going passengers with courtesy were beset with inquiries but managed to keep all in good humor.

BANKERS CLERK
 LEADS HIGH LIFE
 ON STOLEN CASH
One Thousands Dollars In Pocket, He Seeks Taste
 of Gaiety.

A youth whose gorgeous habili- ments rivlaled in splendor the glory of Solomon's raiment, created a fu- TOT in this city last week, by his Monty Brewster manner of spend ing money in the cafes.

 Inasmuch as in the spring, young mans fancy ''1ibhtly turns to thoughts of love-" he decided to find a partner, with whom he might share his ill-gor- ten wealth. A sweet miss who worked in a. nearby building was sin gled out as the victim.
 ''I love you passionately,' Wild told her. 'I have been dabbling in stocks and cleaned up a fortune Say U - you'll marry me and I'll take you r1e--@ out now, buy you a lot of swell clothes, get married, and we'll go on 9 honeymoon-to Bridgeport"
 She did as requested, the pair were married and they went first to Phila- delphia. Next they hit Bridgeport and early this week he returned to Philadelphia where he was arrested yesterday. He is now languishing in the Tombs in New York city to await trial for theft. The police refuse to divu1ge the name of his girl bride,
