PEOPLE WOULD NOT PAY IT

THE COMPANY TOOK LAW IN OWN HANDS AND MANY WERE SENT TO JAIL AND OTHERS SWITCHED ON SIDE TRACKS. Publishers' Press I New York, Aug. 12. Scenes of disorder seldom wit nested in the Metropolis, followed the attempt today of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company to enforce its right to chaw a ten cent fare to and from Coey Island, in the face of a decision by Justice of the Supremo Court William J. (iaynor, in which the latter held that the company had no right to enforce! any such extra fare, and that all that it. could legally collect from passengers was the one live cent fare. The decision was printed In all of the newspapers this morning, and a: a result, many laboring, men started with their families to make the trip to the island secure in the belief that they could afford to do so. With a tencent fare, a man with a family of live would have to pay one dollar to go to and from the island, besides the fare in Manhattan borough, and this is a very large sum to the dwellers in tenements. The chiefs of the railway company, however .uTter an all night conference .decided that they would not recognize the decision of the court but would defy it and compel all passengers to pay the extra nickel. When the ilrst of the early morning trains bringing the crowds from the torrid city, put in an appearance at the second fare point King's Highway the passengers found assembled there all of the force of special police ami Inspectors or the railway company, and the conductors at once went through the care and demanded a second fare. Many of the patrons were supplied with copies of the decision of Justice Gaynor and displayed theso to the conductors, but nil were referred to a region much warmer than was New York, and told If they did not give the second nickel they would have to get off the car. Borne stood out, but were at once prasped by the uniformed employes of the corporation and hauled into the street, while the trains went on without them. Where they showed right they were promptly arrested by the Bpecial police, and even by members of the regular force, all of whom seemed anxious to aid the company. . On some of the lines, however, the Inspectors adopted different tactics. Where it was found that a majority of the passengers would not submit to the extortion, the cars were ordered Fide tracked and there they were held In the broiling sun, which caused great suffering to many women and children.

ASKED QUESTIONS ON MMT TOPICS The Rev. A. T. Ware Had a Unique and Interesting Sermon Last Niqht. QUESTION ON THE TRUSTS MINISTER TELLS HIS AUDITORS THAT IT IS NOT RIGHT FOR A FEW MEN TO CONTROL MONEY OF THE COUNTRY. The Rev. Alfred T. Ware nddiv.ssed a large and appreciative audience last night, at the open air services of the Fast Main Street Friends' church. The Rev. Mr. Ware's sermon was along a cosmopolitan line, and instructive in the happenings and events of the day. Questions of all sorts have been dropped into a box, which he had prepared for their reception, relating to various questions of religious life and the attending influences of modern events upon it. There were' some good solid and com rehensive interrogations submitted, which the Rev. Mr. Ware answered concisely and completely. In answering the question; "'"mould the trusts control the nation or should the nation control them?" he discoursed ;it some length, stating that the large sums of money, which tire controlled by the trusts naturally lend them unusual and extraordinary power. He dwelt on the banking systems of the country, showing that each bank has some other bank in a large city with which it has arrangements for deposits .eventually accumulating a large amount of money in the New York banks. These New York banks are controlled by a few directors who are interested in the large concerns of the country, and thereby have some access to the money. He stated most, decidedly that it was not a good thing for money to be in the hands of a few ,and that any intellectual man on a few moments' consideration will arrive at the same opinion. In regard to a question as to the future of Socialism, in this country and American spirit, he said that the lines which Marks the originator of theoretical socialism had set forth, were not being followed out, and that lines are continually being changed as the conditions of the various countries call for them. He also held that the "American Spirit" has made a strong nation, because it had that attribute of "doing things."

WAS PREVENTED BY GUARD

PECULIAR CRANK SAYS SHE HAS WALKED OFF PAIR OF SHOES IN HER EFFORT, BUT WILL KEEP IT UP. t Publishers' rressl Oyster Ray, N. Y., Aug. 12. Miss Kli.a Case, or "Asi Usac," as she. prefers to call herself, the woman who has been wandering about Oyster Ray for a month or so and making vain efforts to speak to President and Mrs. Roosevelt tried to force her way to the executive at Christ church this morning just a3 the congregation was leaving morning service. James Duffy, an usher at ti e church and the secret service guards prevented the woman from reaching the president. Miss Case attempted to seat herself in tho pew directly across tho aisle from the one occupied by President and Mrs. Roosevelt. Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Ix nsworth and Quentin Roosevelt, but was Escorted to the rear of the church by usher Duffy. Miss Case then stationed herself at the end of the aisle down which the president would have to leave when the services ended. Secret service detective Council took up his position by her side and when the president and his family started to leave, planted himself directly in front of the woman. Two other detectives aided Council in forming a human wall and it is doubtful that the president even caught a glimpse of Miss Case. "Oh, Mr. President, can I speak to yo..!" she exclaimed through tho stalwart form c?f the detectives as tho president passed out cf the church. President half turned looked over hitf shoulder, and then walked out of tho church. As Mr. Bongsworth reached tho end of the aisle Miss Case cried: "Oh, Mr. IMigsworth, can I speak a word to you!" but he too. was deaf to her question. Miss Case was prevented from then following the president and his family to their carriage by the secret service men adopting the same tactics they used in church. After the service Miss Case visited the homo of Squire Franklin, the local justice of the peace, In quest of a warrant for usher Duffy, who she claims handled her roughly in escorting her to the rear of the church and broke her watch chain. "I have walked off a pair of shoes and worn out a dress since coming here in my efforts to see the president," said Miss Case after the service, "but I am by no means discouraged and intend to remain right hero until I do succeed." A RARE VOCALIST HERE Mrs. Dorothy Malone Delighted the Congregation at United Presbyterian Church.
