Immediately the crowd rushed upon Manning and tried to rescue the prisoner- Manning was thrown to the street, kicked and beaten, and slashed In tbe ear with a penknife by one of the rioters.

MANY SENT TO WORKHOUSE Fifty to 8erve Five Days Each, Sixty Fined, and Few Released In Coney Island Court, A continuation of the crusade against rowdyism In the trolley and elevated cars In Coney Island and Long Island City resulted in more than 100 arrests between ,8 o'clock and midnight yesterday, and the fining and committal to the workhouse of more than 100 of the 127 rowdies who were arrested in a record-breaking raid at the Culver station, at Coney Island, on Sunday night.

The Strong-Arm Squad," which bad been sent out from Police Headquarters, was out in force, thirty strong, early last night In the Culver station the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company had posted earlier in the day red placards warning passengers of arrest If they climbed through the car windows. The placards, however. were printed In English only, and few of the foreign element In the crowd under stood them. As on the previous night, the arrests were made mostly among the for eign celebrants. Seventy-five of these were caught in the act of climbing through the windows before midnight, and the number went up to 100 before the end of tbe homeward-bound crowd.

Of the 127 arrested oa Sunday night at the same place, fifty men who lived in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx were sentenced by Magistrate Dooley inx the oiiey xsiona covrt yesterday to rive days In tbe Workhouse, without the alternative of paying a fine. Sixty, who lived la New jersey ana towns near New York, were lot off with fines racging from 3 to $6 each. Seventeen, mostly boys ranging from 16 to 18 years, were discharged with a rt-primand, the Magistrate deeming that they had been sufficiently punished by the rang imprisonment in tne court pen. it is poesiDie to be lenient with oris oners who violated this law and who live outside of the city." explained the magistrate in tne case or th men he na-1 fined.

Very few of the nrisoners vesterday were released on ball, and most of them had to stay in the station pen all night ana in the court pen ail day without anything to eat Moreover, the hearing of the many cases, despite the fact that few of the prisoners pleaded not guilty, took uDSfl luo. a-time that it was after Oo clock last night before the prisoners were reaav for removal to tne workhouse.

On the whole, it was well-behaved and orderly, and aside from the scramble tnrougn the car windows at the Culver Station the police experienced little difficulty in keening the crowds in order. Rowdyism flourished In Long Island City, and the police were kept busy arresting offenders. During the day 24 persona were gathered in.

Of this number 14 were arrested after the games in Celtlo Park. These were youths whose ages ranged from 17 to 21. and who later gave treir occupations to the Dolice Us students and clerks.

A section or it was torn flown before the arrival of the reserve from the Hunt's Point Station. The police had to charge the crowd before the work of destruction was stopped, and then evi dently realizing tne seriousness or tne situation many fled. The 14 unfortunate ones were marched to tne station house. The Stronar Arm Rouad in command of Patrolman John O'Connor spent most of the afternoon at the Wood side end of the trolley lines.

There they made 10 arrests. These were for annoying the PaS' sengem, pulling -the fare registers, and other forms of amusement which was not appreciated.

THEY FIND HIM SENSELESS Overcome by 8moke as Flames 8weep Through His Home Tried Vainly to Reach Window. Wakened by the Incessant barking of Bolivar, a Great Dane chained in the rear yard of Marshall A. Barney, a lawyer, of 22 Schuyler Court Bayonne, several of Bari.cy'a neighbors rushed to their windows and looked out early yesterday morning.

They saw the fine three-story home of Mr. Barney alight from cellar to roof With flames that played behind the closed windows. There was no one on the lawn or about the building, but the neighbors could see the big dog leap-big frantically In the rising glare of the flames, and tugging savagely at his chain. Joseph Wilson, who lives at 10 Schuyler Court, remembered that the Barney fam ily was away In the country for the Summer and that Barney himself on returning from his law office at 154 Nassau Street, Manhattan, each day. was wont to sleep alone in his room at the rear of the second floor.

Hurriedly dressing, Wilson ran with his wife and several other neighbors Into the Barney yard, where the dog still barked and tugged at his chain. A fevr momenta Later they bad drawn up a ladder and put It against the sill of Barney's bedroom. Smoke was curling heavily from the partly opened window, but the flames had not yet reached that room. Near tho window Wilson stumbled across a man's body. Lifting the prostrate form he carried It back to the window.

There he saw that it was Barney himself, un harmed, but almost unconscious from In-baling smoke. When the lawyer had been carried down the ladder and revived in the open air be told his neighbors he had been awakened by the barking of his dog. and sup posed that burglars were entering ms house. He found the room choked with smoke, however, and. -was making bis way toward the window when he was overcome by the fumes.

He was removed to the City Hospital, where it was said later in the day that he was recovering. The Barney home is situated in one of the nest residential sections of Bayonne. and la one of the handsomest buildings there.

Before the driver. Abraham Johnson, could get control of them, they had swerved sharply to the sidewalk, and a moment later crashed through the plate tlasa window of a drug store owned by lax Strauss, on the corner. Johnson was thrown from his seat, crashing through the window after the team, and landing on bis head and shoulders against the soda water fountain.

He was pirked up unconscious and hurried to the City Hospital, where It was found he had suffered a dislocation of the collarbone and internal injuries.

Last evening at the corner of Baltic and Fourth Avenues she saw a gang of boys.

MOTHERS COOKED THEM Five In One Family and Two In An other Taken Suddenly III Feared Others Made Same Mistake. The warm weather following the receat heavy rains has brought out a fine crop of mushrooms In the grassy spots of the Bronx, and half the Bronx goes mush room hunting. Seven persons were re ported 111 yesterday In a single block of the Bronx as a result of eating toadstools gathered fa the belief that they were mushrooms.

Before midnight three of the seven had died at the Fordham Hospital. Other families are thought to have eaten of the same poisonous growths. The three children of Mrs. Josephine De Saivo of 2.423 Arthur Avenue, with several went on Sunday 'to the woods In Bronx Park, about a mile from their home. The De Salvo children were Mary, Angeline, and Rlnaldo, 3.

The children saw growing In profusion What they thought were the aame sort of mushrooms they had so often seen hanging dried in the windows of Italian stores near their homes. A few minutes later they were busy gathering up the soft fungi In their aprons and In pa pec bags that had contained candy a little while before. The children, returning honie, showed their mother the supposed mushrooms. Mrs. De Salvo at once washed them and then cooked them for supper.

Her husband was not at home, but she called over and invited for supper her old fa ther, John Albonese, who lived at 2,44 Arthur Avenue. The old man, too, par-took of the mushrooms," and pronounced the dish excellent Early yesterday morning the three De Salvo children awoke, complaining of Intense pains. Their mother ran over to the grandfather, across the street to summon his assistance. She found him, too. groaning in bed.

A little later, after calling an ambulance from the Fordham Hospital. Mrs. De Salvo herself was seized with the same pains, and accompanied her three children and her father to the hospital. Little Angeline died as the ambulance reached the hospital. Fifteen minutes later there ran into the hospital Giulo Gentilo of 585 Kaet 188th Street, just around the corner from where the De Salvos lived.

In his arms he bore his 3-year-old son, Serverio. The father's face and that of tbe child were distorted with pain. Gentile told Dr. Sheridan that he and the child had spent Sunday afternoon in the woods, and bad rouno wnat uiey iw to be fine big mushrooms. They took and had them for sapper.
