Detectives Tried 10 Hold
Two, Later Indicted as
Anarchists, After Their
Release i'm Tombs Court
Caused Scuffle i'm Hall
Charges Brought After Law.
yer Told Magistrate He
Was Attacked by Police

Three members of the bomb squad
will appear as defendants in the Dombs
court this morning. They are Detec-
tive Sergeant James J. Gegan, Detec-
tives Cornelius Browne and Jerome
Murehy. The last two are charged
with disorderly conduct, while Gegan
will have to answer to charge of as
sault. The charges were the outcome
Of an effort by the detectives to hold
two men who had been discharged in
the Tombs court on charges of crimi-
nal anarchy until the May regular
grand jury could complete indictments
against them.
The three men are Abram Jakira,
thirty two, of 10 Bleecker Street;
Israel Amter, forty, Of 205 Brook Ave
nue., the Bronx. and Edward Lindgren,
forty-two. of 2756 East Twenty seventh
street Brooklyn. They were arrested
last Friday by detectives of the bomb
squad and agents of The Department
of Justice.
When the case was called for trial
on Wednesday Deputy Assistant Dis
trlct Attorney Sabbitino told Magis-
trate Resenblatt that the cases were
being presented to the grand Jury and
asked an adjournment of twenty-four
hours. The court held the men were
entitled to an immediate trial and de-
MED the motion of Sabbitino.
AT the conclusion of the hearing
yesterday Magistrate Rosenblatt dis
charged the three on the charge of
criminal anarchy. Mr.. sabbitino and
the detectives said that they were salts
he'd as they had juss heard the men
had been indicted
Jaklra earlier in the day had had
separate trial on a charge of violating
the Sullivan law and had been held in
$500 bail for trial in the Court of Spe-
cial Sessions.
AS Amter and Lindgren were about
to leave the courtroom, Osmond K.
Fraenkel, their counsel, asked the court
to instruct the detectives not to inter
fere with the men as they departed.
The two started for the street. In the
corridor outside the courtroom about
one hundred men and women relatives
and friends of the three gathered to
greet them. The three detectives from
the bomb squad followed the men.
There were loud cries and a scuffie in
the corridor.
Mr.. Fraenkel hurried back to the
court and told the magistrate he had
been assaulted by the detectives. His
request Tor summons for Sergeant
Gegan, charging assault, and for the
other two detectives, charging disor-
derry conduct, was granted.
1t was the contention of Mr.. Fraen-
kel that the rearresting of his clients
was not regular because the detectives
did not have bench warrants for the
men. The three detectives We're taken
to Police Headquarters
A short time later indictments were
filed against the alleged anarchists be-
tore Judge Alfred j. Talley in the
Court of General Sessions and bench
warrants were issued for their arrest
New-York tribune., 1921-05-06

Stopping before the proper door he
raps the Morse code with the knuckle
Of his middle, tinger-rtap-tap, tap-tap-
tap-~tap, tap-tap.
That is not all Not by any means.
The taps are not enough to open the
door. The initiate then whistles
softly; usually few bars from a
well-known Irish ditty. This brings
action. A voice from within whispers
hoarsely:
who's there"
Does the applicant give his own
name He does not. His reply is
something like this:
Omar the Rent Maker"
One would think that all this should
be sufficient. but it isn't.
"How's the wind 2" asks the voice on
the other side Of the door.
Northeast, half east" returns the
visitor.
A heavy bar falls, chains rattle and
clash, bolts are flung back and the
lock clicks nervously. Then tho door
opens and the person inside says:
Come in. Steve. Got anything good
at Pimlico ?''
All He Needs Now Is the Money
The rest is easy, assuming that the
visitor has the price.
According to information given The
Tribune reporter, the bottles are not
kept in these speak-easiers, They are
hidden in some remote spot where the
hands of the law are not likely to find
them. The liquor at hand is kept in
tumblers, and these stand conveniently
near large sink, into which they can
be overturned in something less than
a trice should the necessity arise.
This method of thirst quenching is
in vogue up and down Broadway, the
reporter was told, and for every saloon
that succumhs to Messrs. Mullan and
Gage three speak-easies sprout in it's
place. N
One saloonkeeper, however, who is
keeping up the fight denied that the
cafes were going out of business be-
cause the proprietors were afraid to
SELL
They're closing up because they
can't get the stuff" he said. "When it
is possible to get it the bootlegger de-
mands a price per case that either
eliminates our profit or cuts it down
SO much that it is not compensation
for the risks taken. And now, since
the cops have gone mad, it is next to
impossibility to get truckman to
move a consignment of booze.
"If the stuff was available you
wouldn't see the saloons quitting.
They'd manage to sell somehow, no
matter how active the cops"

Madden Named
To Set v Value of
Traction Lines
Transit Board Appoints En-.
ginser of Old p. S. C. and
Gives Accountant Posts TO
Lindars and Major Cooper
AuOflices Are Temporary
Appraisal Work, First Step
i'm Commission Readjust-
naent Plan, Begins at Once

The members Of the new Transit
Commission are losing no time in be-
ginning the enormous task of working
put the tangled transit problem in this
city. The arst move in the preliminary
work on the commissions plan was
made yesterday with the appointment
of John Il. Madden, of Brooklyn, as
valuation engineer, position created
by the commission for the appraisal
of the various transit companies
property.
The commission also announced the
appointment of Frederick w. Lindars
as chief accountant at $4,000 a year
and Major JohE G. Cooper as assistant
chief accountant at $4,000 year.
They VII! work under MIR. Madden on
the valuation staff. Mr.. Madden will
receive $1,000 a month while employed.
Captain Edward T. Fitzgerald, now 8
railway engineer of the commission
at S4,1o0 a year, was detailed as act
ing chief of the transit bureau.
1t was said at the Office of the COM
mission that the fixing Of these valua-
tions would be the first move in the
program of readjustment and rehabili-
tation planned by the commission and
that the work probably would begin
next week when the new officials take
office. The commissioners declined to
estimate the length of time this work
would take, but it was said unofficially
that it might consume six months. 1t
was pointed out that all executives for
the job had been. employed with the
understanding that they were taking
nlonth-to- month positions and that
they would be dropped as soon as the
work is completed.
All o. the new appointees were con-
nected with the old Public Service
Commission before the war While the
entire system of the commissions orr
ganization has not been worked out,
the basic lines have been established.
The plan OF organization is such that,
while experts will be intrusted with
the direct supervision of all depart
ments of the work, the commission it
self will retain the entire control and
will be the driving force of the organi-
cation.
Mr. Madden, selected for engineering
head of the valuation work, was As
sistant Division Engineer of the old
commission and did valuable work in
supervising the construction of the new
subway in William Street, where many
problems new to engineering practice
we're encountered and successfully
solved. He left the service of the
commission December 81, 1918, and
since that time has been in private
practice.
: Mr.. Lindars has been a member of
the firm of Banks, Haig & Linders, ex-
pert accountants, of $50 Nassau Street,
He served with the old Public Service
Commission from 1916 to November,
1919. Major Cooper served with Mr..
Lindars under the old commission.
Captain Fitzgerald also was with the
old commission for several years. His
assignment as Acting Chief OF the
Transit Bureau will be temporary only,
and after he has placed that bureau on
the proper footing he may be used
further by the commission for similar
work in other bureaus.

and was forced to flee with his wife
and children. He reached Athens pen
niless. While in Athens he said he
learned of the falling fortunes of
Queen Olga, and, with General Michael
Garshin, held a conference with the
Queen relative 70 disposing of some of
The jewels in America.
Impersonating an electrician, he said
he got berth on the steamship King
Alexander, sailing from Athens to
America, with the brooch concealed on
his person. Upon arriving in Brooklyn
he said he left the ship for the purpose
of disposing of the brooch, and intend
ed to return to Greece as soon as he
had done so. 1t was while attempting
to sell it that he attracted the atten-
tlon of the customs officials.
After his arrest and explanation of
his part in the affair, Camliouhine
served twenty days in Jail and was then
released. The brooch was seized and
placed in the seizure room of the Gus
mately $500 duty.
customs o{nclaiS at the time declined
to believe that Queen Olga had any
part in the transaction and discredited
in general the story told by CamIou-
hine. Press dispatches from Europe
yesterday. however, telling of the ex-
treme low ebb of the fortunes of thu
dowager Queen and limiting at other at
tempts to dispose Of personal valua-
bles caused the customs officials here
TO take new interest in the case.
Deputy Collector H. C. Stuart said yes
terday that, as far as he knew, the
diamond and emerald brooch was still
in the seizure room and would remain
there until the duty was paid. He said
he had not traced the movements of
Camliouhine since his release the lat
