WOMAN SETS RECORD
FOR TALKING; 6 HOURS
STRAIGHT; THEN MORE
Held in c ustody at* police head
quarters for several hours yester
day was n woman who is hailed by
the police as the champion talker
of the United States, if not
world. She talked a steady stream
of Polish and broken English that
lasted from h o'clock yesterday
morning, when she strolled into
headquarters until 2 o'clock when
the was borne to her home in a
taxi. As the car pulled away from
the station she was still talking, and
from all the police know she may be
at It yet. They are sure, however
that during the six hours she was
tlteir guest rhe never let up on her
stream of conversation for the sp ice
of two consecutive second'.
This human phonograoii or per
petual motion tongue, was not raised
in anger, but merely kept going at
a pitch that was clearly audible all
over the station. Captain l.ong.
whose office Is next to the detention
room, shut his door, but could not
escape the chatter. Peak Lieuten
ant Andrew Jensen and Po.ice Clerk
William Hallahan took to the back
yard after three hours of it, but
still the woman's voica drifted
through an open window somewhere
and they gave up in disgust.
The woman Is believed to be a re
ligious maniac. She visited head
quarters several times before but
never gave the police such a treat
as yesterday's. Upon her arrival
'she calmly walked into the court
• room and gave Judge Pickersgill
an oration on some unknown sub
ject. The combined efforts of Mar
shal Daniel Dwyer and Motorcycle
Officer William Bachman were nec
essary to hoist her to the women's
detention room #on the second floor,
but she kept her tongue wagging in
Polish and English throughout the |
process of elevation.
Inside the room she took up a po
sition with her face glued to the 1
grating and talked on and on and ’
on. her voice resounding through the |
I empty hall. No one bothered to :
j translate, however, and her effort I
was practically wasted. As the j
hours passed by. anger on the part j
of the police changed to awed ad
miration at the woman's conversa
tional powers. For speed and en
durance she was a candidate for any
honor that could be awarded. It
was unkindly suggested that the po
lice medal be offered for anyone who
could shut her up but there were
no volunteers anj on the woman
talked.
At 2 o'clock the police grew weary
I of holding a watch on her. As they
said, she had already established a
I record and there was no percentage
! in timing her anv longer. A taxi*
! eab was summoned and the Perth
Amboy female wonder was trans
ported to her home somewhere in
the city. Ears at the police station
are still ringing.
STATEN ISLAND
i
—
Commutation Rate Over Mu- j
nicipal Ferry at St. George
is to be Continued
The light of the people of Staten
Island was won yesterday for the
continuation -of the commutation
rate over the Municipal ferry from
St. George to South Kerry, Manhat
tan, when the Sinking Fund Com
mission of the city of New York
composed of Mayor Hylan, Comp
troller Craig, President of the Board
of Aldermen Hulbert and the five
borough .presidents of greater New
Yofk, voted unanimously in favor of
continuing the present rate for an
other year.
This action was taken following a
hearing before Mayor Hylan at City
Hall, Manhattan. Wednesday after
noon. when the mayor suggested to
:i committee headed by Augustus G.
Marscher. of Prince Bay, to go at
once to the office of Commissioner
Whalen of plants and structures to
have the matter placed on the cal
endar of the Sinking Fund Commis
sion.
In extending the commutation
rate the Sinking Fund Commission
made it known that an action would
be taken with regard to considering
tlu lowering of the fare on the Sta
P'jnirl Tv.,nei»
increasing the rate as in the revision '
of the tariff as was proposed by the
Rapid Transit in the schedule tiled
with the Transit Commission of the
city of New York.
The hearing on the latter matter
was held yesterday before the Tran
sit Commission but because of the
readjustment of the commutation
rat, by the Sinking Fund Commis
sion this matter was declared off.
Members of the various civic organ
izations together with commuters
took up the light shortly after Com
missioner Whalen issued the order
to abolish the commutation over the
ferry to make ifl! to pay a five cent
fare over the municipal ferry.
Stuart L. Ritz. as president of the
Tottenville Civic I.eague, took up
the matter on this end of the island
and placed petitions in circulation
protesting against the matter. These
with hundreds of names were tiled
with Mayor Hylan. who from the
start seemed to take the side of the
commuters in the fight against Com
missioner Whalen's order. The Rapid
Transit company at the same time
wanted to boost its rate from Tot
tenville and way stations along the
line up seventy- cents over the pres
ent rate of commutation.
BOND MYSTERY UNSOLVED
NEW YORK. April 28.—The mys

The Perth Amboy Republican
Club's dinner held last night in the |

estimated that fully 700 persons!
were present and of this number!
about 300 were women.
A cold supper was prepared bv
Wililam Poulson. the caterer, and •
served by a corps of women assis
tants. Owing to tlie large number i
present and the limited room for;
tables and chairs it was necessary
for almost half of the assemblage
to wait until the other half had fln- ,
ished eating before they could sit •
down to the tables.
The turnout was beyond all ex-;
pectations and the local Republican j
leaders were high in their pruise of
the excellent work done by Assem
blyman Edward J. Peterson, the j
general chairman, and his efficient
committee of workers from each
ward.
Johu Pfeiffer presided as toast
master of the occasion in an admir
able manner. Rev. Willfevt v’eriJeoU.
pastor of the Simpson M. E. church
opened the dinner with words of
grace. In introducing the speaker
of the evening Toastmaster Pfeiffer
spoke highly of the ability of Coun
ty Judge Harold B. Wells, of Bor
dentown, as an orator.
Judge Wells received a loud ova- 1
tion of hand clapping when he rose j
to speak. He had not spoken for
more than two minutes when he had
his audience with him and they were
of the same opinion that Mr. Pfeiffer
had not exaggerated any in telling
of the principal speaker’s oratorical .
ability.
The speaker talked in a humor- J
ous strain during the early part of
his speech, explaining that some
thing "light” should precede the
“heavy” P&rt of his talk. He show
ed his ability to drive home his
points with stories and illustrations
that left no vague ideas with his
auGience.
Judge Wells emphasized the need
of co-operation and hard work in
politics, as in any business, if suc
cess is to be obtained. The secret
of success, he said, quoting men i
who have made names for them- I
lelves, is “dig. dig. dig.” and “per
ipiration" not "inspiration.” The j
lesired results cannot be obtained. .
he judge jointed out. by individual -
•ffort alone but there must be j
•oss of any undertaking.
Having implicit faith, he said, is
tn essential asset to success. He
old the well known story of Abra

Vs a humorous sidelight on this sub
ject, the judge said: “Be like the
'ellow who went into the drug store
ind bought a bottle of hair restorer
ind then told the clerk to give him
i comb and brush also.”
The speaker touched upon the wet
ind dry issue. “You all know where
l stand,” he said. “I am for the
enforcement of the prohibition
anu ndment as long as it is a part
:>f the constitution. It is a part of
he law of the land and must be en
forced. To violate this law is no
nore than anarchy.” He cited the
’use of the ex-president, William
[Howard Taft, who was opposed to
he prohibition amendment prior to
ts adoption as a part of the consti
ution. As soon as it was passed,
he judge pointed out. Mr. Taft, now
?hief Justice of the Supreme Court,
innounced that it must be enforced

Judge Wells spoke highly of the
Republican United States Senators
rom this state, Congressman T.
’’rank Appleby and State Senator

governor.
At the conclusion of his address j

GENOA. April 28 (By The Asso
ciated Press).—Vice Premier Bar
thou, head of the French delegation
here, conversed at length during last
right over long distance phone with
Premier Poincare, and as a result it
was stated this afternoon that the
official viewpoint of France in regard
lo Russia had been harmonized.
GENOA. April 28.—Divergency
has developed between the French
delegations and the governments in
Paris, and Louis Barthou. head of
the delegation telegraphed Premier
Poincare for permission to spend
two days in the French capital to
center on the situation.
This request appears to have >een
granted for a semi-official H:i\as
agency stated today that M. Bar
thou would go to Paris tomorrow
morning for a conference with Pre
mier Poincare and would be back in
Genoa the following Wednesday.
The difficulty was said in confer
ence quarters to have arisen through
the growth here of a spirit of con
ciliation and co-operation which
government circles in Paris. Respite
•onstant informative messages from
their representatives here, have ap
peared pot to grasp.
This conciliatory spirit, which con
ference leaders seem to feel in the
iir, is declared to have been brought
ibout by w ide recognition < f the w is
lom of establishing amicable and
practical arrangements with both
Russia and Germany which would
permit restoration of these couti
:ries of their own interests and that
pf all the powers including France.

France s position is that such dis

liat Germany has defaulted.
The French government moreover
i Arm in its position to resist any

This plan contemplates the eco-1
nomic colonization of Russia, with j
j guarantees that the autonomy and!

The division of trade will be ar- ,

i nearest them. For example. Great
Britain would be given the oppor
