Andrews quickly followed hia giving his paro.e to Acting Distriet Attorney Gans, and he was much surprised by it. He had promised Diatrict Attorney Jerome. whom he vlslted Friday at L-ikeville. and Mr. Gans, that he would defer his trip to Europe and ha on hand when wanted.

Mr. Andrews bad planned sail for Europe yesterday. and had engaged passage un the Koenig Albe.l. The cherges made hy Mrs. Strosnider arise out of the ti-ansfer of a piece of property in Flat bush by the coinplainani to Dr.

Harris. Andrews and Harris were taken to the Crtm iual Courts Building. where Justice Olmsted was awaitlng them. When arraigned befoi Justice olmsted. the latter handeil Andrews a copy of ihe complaint.

Tlie Distriet Altorney's was not repieseiued. and Mr. Gans was sent for. After a huriied consultalton wlth one of his assisianis. Mr.

Gans said he was ready to proceed with Ihe examination or would consent to an atijouinment to sult the coii venience oi the defendants. To this Mr. An? drews lepiied: "1 had expected to engage the services of two emineni iawyers io appear in my behalf, but one of these geiitlemen. I flnd. 1 catinoi reach, as he is of the city.

and the oiher is busy iliat I cannot even coiisult him before Mon- day." Mr. Andrews was tlieu held in and Har? ris in bail. for examination uext Satur? day. After his ai raignment Andrews made the following siatemelil regard ing his arrest: The flrst I heaid of any pmceeding of this kind was two or three days after the charge of swiiidling whidi Dr. Harris bmught against these iwo men was flnally disposed of.

I called on Mr. yes? terday and told him lhat 1 would not leave New-York until this case had been setiled. I consider my lionor and tntegrtty of greater value than any vacation or business trip. Mr.

Harris was also about to go abroad, but as 1 do, that it is to our interests to stay here and any clouded parts of this matter. Champe S. Andrews is weil known in this city. He ts counsel for the County Medical Society. and was fonnerly Exalted Ituler of the Order of Elks He is a prominent memlier of Tam many Hall and one of the best orators in ih.

Mr. Gans said yesterday that in view of the pui'li'iiy given the case in the newspapers it was decided lhat it was better for the defend? ants that matiets he hrought to a elose for the present, and thal is why Mr. Andrews and Dr. Harris were arrested. Every effort is being made by ihe Distriet At torney's offlce' to corroborate the story told by Mrs.

Strosnider. and various things have been dtsoovered which suhstantiate her story. She said she had been called by telephone to go to Dr. Harris's house. and on that night there was present in her Flatbush house a depuly sheriff, piticed there to guard tlie furniture which had been attached.

Mrs. Strosnider is supposed to have told the deputy sheriff of the iall. He escorted her to a and promised to meet her on her return from Manhattan, lf she were goiug lo be late. The record of the telephone call has also been found. Strosnider has also told more of his deallngs with Dr.

Harris. He says that Harris told him he was golng to start a subway bank. and sug gepted to him the site at in the Metro? politan Building. i'ltt afterward found that this would not do. hs tlie insurance company itself had started bank there.

Then another site further uptown was suggested. Harris. accord? ing to Strosnider's story. was to put in as capital and he like arnount. It came to nothing.

The Interborough Rapld Translt Company has aolved tbe problem so as to prevent jamming of passengers at that point. This lnform-tlon, in the form of an offlcial state- i ment, was issued yesterday from General Man- ager Hedley's offlce. The statement is as follows: A temporary station platform and exlt atair ways. leading to the street. have been con etructed at the 140th-at.

He said also that if the request to lay a third track on ihe elevated was granted that would aftotd some relief, and that the extra track could be built within a year.

This proposi tiou has been held up by the authorities. al? though it is the only plan that would atford any practh-al relief.

Subway Train, Unwarned of Carpentera Presence, Grinds Him Under Wheels.

Be. ause of the lack of a signal to wai ap proaching trains of his presence. say the police and railroad men. John Hyland. of No.

1,454 a carpenter employed by the Interborough. was struck by a local train in the subway at 149th-st. yesterday and instantly killed. Hyland was ai work on a ladder. placed on the tracks.

at the eastern end of the 149th-st. station, in 3d-ave. A southbound train of the Westchester branch entered the station at con siderable speed and struck the ladder on which Hyland was working, tossing the man to the tracks. where nearly every car of the train passed over his body, cutting it in two. Death was Instaiitaneous.

The motornmh. Ernesi Huiyer. stopped his irain as quickly as possible. and Stromberg. tne Morrisania station, sent for Dr.

Aranow, of rhe l.ebanou Hospital, who coiilii only pionoiince ihe man dead. Several wonieu on the station platform hecame liysterlcal when they saw the mutilated body carried onto the platform. Dr. Aranow atteiuled two women. Hylands body was found tightly wedged against the station platform.

He was married. The motorinan was arrested and taken to the Morrisania police court, where Magistrate Mayo remanded hlni to Coroner Berry, who paroled him until the Inquest. next Wednesday. Hoiyer said that when his train went down ihe grade from the elevated strueture into the tmi nel. he shut off the power.

and was coasting, with the brakes on. He said that the change from sur.ligh* to the dim light of the tunnel made it l.npossible to see clearly till the pupils of his eyc.i contracted. and he did not see Hyland on the irack. He said. too, that he dfd not realize that he had struck a man.

but thought hia motoi' car had merely hit a timbei- and knocked it off the rails. Not until stopped and investigated did he realize what had hap pened. The signals. he said. were set for a clear track.

Tha workmen on the track. he said, are obllged to look out for themselves. as no signals are set to indicate when they are working on the tracks. CLERK CHARGED WITH 'JHEFT. Said to Have Retained Jewelry Belonging to Hotel Gnest.
