POLICE AID IN WORK
OF BEATING PASSENGERS
By Prlrste loused Wire.
New York, Aug. 14.—With one vie
tlm of Brooklyn Rapid Transit brutal
tty dead, a number In hospitals and
hundreds at their homes suffering
from cuts and bruises, the police to.
day had practically gone over bodily
to assist the Rapid Transit Company
In.Its plan to compel the public to pay
an Illegal 10-cent fare to Coney Island,
All night and this morning police
men werf on every train and trolley
car coming from Coney Island, and
they aided In Intimidating passengers
and forcing them to pay the fare. The
city police actually took the place of
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company,
whose licenses had been revoked by
Deputy Commissioner Waldo and help
ed In the work of extortion.
Mads Brutal Attack*.
With the exception of the two hours
during which orders from Captain
Harkins, of the Coney Island precinct
that assaults and that throwing of peo
ple from cars must cease, were obeyed,
the police were active In aiding the In
spectors and other Brooklyn Rapid
Transit employees In their brutal at
tacks on men, women and children.
During the lunch hours, the city po
tlcemen were fed with sandwiches and
lunches provided- by the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit. Today all pretense of
Impartiality had disappeared and they
were openly on the side ol the Rapid
Transit Company.
1,000 Thrown Off Cars.
This action by the police followed
another day of rioting and brutality
during which more than 1,000 persona
were thrown from cars, and women os
well tfs men Insulted and beaten, and
more than 000 persons were sidetrack
ed In cars because they had refused to
pay the second fare. With these hun
dreds suffered those who had paid the
extra fare, but were held because a
few In the same car had refused to pay.
Another Incident of the day was the
finding of the body of Mlsa Fannie
Sabrlnsky In a creek. She had paid a
second fare, but had been ejected from
the car when It was stalled, and when
walking to Coney Island was run down
by a car on a bridge over the creek
and hurled to death.
It has developed that when reported
to the police that the girl probably, had
been killed by a car they refused to act
and that no efforts had been made to
find the motorman who ran down the
girl.
Police Guard Cars.
At Neck road, where the second fare
la collected on the trip to Coney, from
50 to 75 policemen under Capta'n Gal
lagher were on duty today. At Ken-
nlngton, where the second fare la de
manded on the return trip,^ 60 more po
licemen were atatloncd. None of theee
made an effort to chnck the brutality of
the Rapid Transit Inspectors and con
ductors. In edition there were .from
J to 5 uniformed policemen on every
car and train leaving Coney Island.

passenger when Sheriff Flaherty forced
his way down the aisle to the police-
""Look, here. Cross.” said the sheriff,
