Mother and Son Now Occupy Adjoining Cots in Washington Heights Hospital. Rallying slightly after had been resorted to, Arthur the 6 transfusion, year old lad who was shot by an 1111 known men in Highbridge Park last Wednesday, weakened as dawn approached, and before noon to-day his condition was again announced as critical. A hemorrhage o'clock last night, followed by a spell. caused Dr. C.

L. Sichle, house surgeon of the Washington Heights Hospital, to decide on transfusion. Mrs. Shibley, the boy's mother, who insisted that the necessary be drawn from her veins, was called. Ever since the possibility of the operation has been known to her Mrs.

Shibley has carried her arm swathed in sterilized bandages. Arthur and his mother were rushed to the operating room. Mr. Shibley was not allowed to be present, as it was feared that he might give vent to an hysterical outburst that would endanger the lives of both his wife and son. The large vein in Mrs.

Shibley's arm was opened and a tube filled with warm salt water was inserted in it. The large vein in the boy's thigh was then opened, the tube injected and the blood commenced flowing from mother to son. Pale as a ghost, his lips bloodless, scarcely breathing before the operation, the change in the boy's appearance as the minutes ticked away was wonderful. A rosy glow appeared on his skin, his respirations grew stronger and his cheeks flushed. The surgeons announced at the expiration of twenty minutes that enough blood had entered the lad's veins, and the wounds were bound up.

Mrs. Shibley did not undergo any anesthetic. She bore the pain attached to the operation without a whimper, and her first words, when it was finished, were as to her son's condition. Mother and son were placed in adjoining cots in the surgical ward. For some time the child seemed to be mending, but early this morning another relapse followed.

The boy's mother was not apprised of the fact that her son was sinking again. Dr. Sichle said that another operation of transfusion would not be attempted. Arthur Shibley and his playmate. Robert Lomas, were shot while coasting in the park near their homes on last Wednesday afternoon.

Since then no clew to the murderer of Lomas and the assailant of Shibley has been discovered. Many suspects have been arrested, but the police are satisfied that none of the men now in custody is implicated. No accurate description of the man, who is believed to be a maniac, can be secured by the police.

MRS.

BALLARD'S STORY. Denies She Entered Into Separation Agreement With Her Husband, as Latter Alleges. Mrs. Frederick L. Ballard made a statement to-day in which she denied that she had entered into an agreement of separation with her husband.

Mrs. Ballard claims that her husband, who inserted a notice in a Brooklyn paper on Monday that he would no longer be responsible for her bills, took the matter entirely in his own hands. Mrs. Ballard says that since her husband went away he called her on the telephone, but she hung up the receiver and refused to talk to him. She says the reason she failed to keep her appointment with the Eagle representative yesterday after inviting him to the house was that she was at her lawyers at 16 Court street, at the time, trying to arrange for some sort of an understanding with her husband as to her future care.

PLAN CARE OF STREETS. Letter Received From Steers ing Attitude of the Present Administration. Initial steps were taken by members of the Flatbush Board of Trade at their meeting last night at the Manhattan Terrace Field Club, Ocean avenue and Avenue for the formation of a new. hood association in the.

Manhattan race section. The business of the new association will be to take care streets of the section, to keep the walks clear of snow in the winter, and to keep shrubbery in trim shape in the summer. A committee of seven was appointed, headed by George F. Haight, and the committee held a meeting after the Board of Trade adjourned. A sub-committee was appointed to inquire into the methods and scope of the Prospect Park South Association and the Seagate Association.

with a view to adopting the same plan of organization in Manhattan Terrace. One of the first things contemplated is the purchase of a snow plow to clean the sidewalks after storms. It appeared from the general discussion at the meeting erase after the last storm a loyal member the Board of Trade, A. D. Murphy, gave to the section the use of a horse and driver with a plow for the cleaning of the sidewalks.

The plow was an old one, however, and did not do the work required of it satisfactorily. It should have had two men to sit on it to keep it down. One of members of the Board was called on the telephone and asked to sit on the plow, but he gave some legal advice and refused to be a sitter. The driver's weight was not sufficient to keep the plow down, and he got a boy. Even at that the boy's weight was not sufficient, and the little fellow.

according to statements made at last night's meeting. was made seasick for two days by his ride. It was clear that there must be a new plow, begged, borrowed or bought. The members of the board received their first official communication from Borough President Steers at last night's meeting. It was stature to an inquiry regarding the of the proposed opening of Avenue M.

The letter suggested that the Borough President had set out to acquaint himself with all the details of all pending public improvements. Manhattan Terrace and Greenfield are at, swords' points over the Avenue opening. The board authorized the secretary to send to the Borough President and the Board of Estimate a protest against the parking of Coney Island avenue. Three new members, were admitted: Spencer C.

Leslie Willis Sprague, president of the Ethical Culture Society, is of the opinion that the education and emancipation of women will come faster after they have the ballot, but he would advise them to gain suffrage by a step at a time; first, municipal, and then state suffrage.

This opinion, which he expressed yesterday afternoon in an address delivered before the regular meeting of the Brooklyn Equality Club in the Y. W. C. A. building, called forth a spirited reply from Miss Ida Craft to the effect that it had been plainly demonstrated that such a course was not only impracticable but impossible.

The only way, she said, to get state suffrage was by striking straight, from the shoulder and demanding that the word be stricken from the Constitution. The meeting was largely attended. Current events bearing upon suffrage work were read by Mrs. E. S.

Childs and Mrs. Price, the former speaking principally the work recently undertaken at "Holy Trinity Church. MISSIONARY OLINGER DEAD. The Rev. Dr.

Alphonse Jacques Olinger, formerly a member of the Order of the Grand Chartreuse, a famous monastic organization in the Alps, and well known on both continents as a missionary, died at his home, 625 Lexington avenue, Manhattan, yesterday of heart, disease, after a month's illness.

and Mrs. George L. Terrasse, of Manhattan, have registered the Eagle Bureau, SOCIETY AT FLUSHING GETS MORE SURPRISES Romance of Miss Leavitt and Her Chauffeur Followed by Others. 2 "BUDS" DEFY CONVENTIONS. Miss Whipple Weds Mr.

Strong in Manhattan--Miss Clark Elopes to Washington With Mr. Reid. Flushing society has just about given up all hope of attending any more elaborate- weddings, that is, where a Flushing young woman is concerned. And. incidentally, membership in the "'Irate Fathers Club" is rapidly increasing, and all because of the willfulness of young women who will marry the man of their choice regardless of their parents ideas.

It was only last week that Miss Margaret Leavitt and 1 her chauffeur, Joseph Smollen, were married against parental objections. Yesterday Miss Marion Langdon Whipple went to Manhattan, ostensibly 011 a shopping tour, was married there, and then continued to Philadelphia, the wife of J. Henry W. Strong. Yesterday, too.

Miss M. Lindsay Clark, closely pursued by her father on a special train, reached Washington, D. just in time to become Mrs. A. Graham Reid before Mr.

Clark arrived. Apparently Dan Cupid has decided that it is open season for hearts at Flushing. it is that he rambled through the fashionable Long Island town yesterday and sent two arrows winging to their marks. Depleted by the loss of three members in so short a time, the younger society set is beginning to wonder it there will be enough them left to hold a cotillon by the end of Lent. Miss Whipple 'Phoned Father and Brother, "Come and See Me Married." Miss Marion Langdon Whipple, one.

of yesterday's brides, is the third daughter Mr. and Mrs. Napoleon D. Whipple of 197 Madison avenue, Flushing. She has been prominent in society since she made her debut two or three years ago.

Her husband is J. Henry W. Strong, an artist and a well-known member of the Babylon, colony. Although Miss Whipple and Mr. Strong have been seen in society together a great deal of late, not even a hint of their engagement had reached the friends of the couple and the marriage will be the talk of their many friends for some days.

According to an intimate friend of the bride, she left her home yesterday morning, intending to do some shopping in the city. Whether by previous arrangement or not, she met Mr. Strong in Manhattan, and after obtaining a marriage license proceeded to Trinity Church, where they were married. From a toll station near the church Miss Whipple telephoned to the offices of her father and her brother, Julian Whipple, her intention of getting married, and inviting them to attend the ceremony. They both accepted the invitation and the father gave the bride in marriage and the brother acted in the capacity of best man.

The officiating clergyman was the Rev. Mr. Evans. Friends Cannot Account for the Suddenness of the Wedding. An intimate friend of the Whipple family told the Eagle reporter last night that Miss Whipple's family had no objections to Mr.

Strong as a suitor for her hand, and he could not account for their sudden marriage. Mrs. Strong is a handsome and accomplished young woman. Her husband is her senior by quite a number of years. She is related to Mrs.

W. Carson Kane of Flushing, and other prominent dents of that place and Manhattan. Mr. Strong is the son of the late Colonel James H. Strong.

His sister, the widow of R. Bayley Post, 1s a resident of Babylon, where she owns a cottage in Argyle Park, and is prominent in society. Mr. and Mrs. Strong left for Philadelphia immediately after the ceremony and will spend their honeymoon in the South.

Mr. Whipple telephoned to Flushing for Mrs. Whipple to be present at the ceremony, but she arrived too late to see her daughter married. Father's Special Train Couldn't Overtake Express on Which Lovers Journeyed. When Franklin Clark of Flushing learned yesterday that his daughter, Miss Marion Lindsay Clark, was en route to Washington to become the bride of A.

Graham Reid, he straightway decided to nip her plan in the bud and stop the marriage. Fast time was made all the way over the two hundred and fifty odd miles, but the regular express was not delayed, and reached the capital just in time to allow the couple to be united before Mr. Clark's train arrived. He learned at the Hotel Arlington that they had left on their impromptu honeymoon several minutes before. Miss Marion Lindsay Clark is a graduate cf Radcliffe College.

and Archer Graham Reid is prominent in Baltimore society. The Clarks have a mansion near Richmond, but lately they have spent most of their time at their Flushing residence in Fox Lane, a fashionable street. It is said that Miss Clark received letters from her fiance in care of a friend at Fort Totten, the army post at Willets Point. Certain it is that Miss Clark has been seen often lately, driving toward the post with friends. The ceremony was performed by the Rev.

Dr. Williams, at Trinity Episcopal Church. Washington, in presence of half a dozen friends of the young couple from Richmond and Baltimore. Mr. Clark afterwards stated that his only objection to the match was the youth of the couple.

This morning the Clark family were all away, according to the servants. They are not expected until this evening. The Clarks are new arrivals in FlushIng. are are not yet very well known there. FINED $500 FOR SMUGGLING.

Mrs. Angela C. Quinlan Also Lost $12,000 Worth of Finery in Seizure of "Sleeper Trunks." Mrs. Angela C. Quinian of 20 West Thirty-first street, Manhattan, one of twenty-seven dressmakers, recently indieted by the Federal grand jury for participation in the "sleeper trunk" smuggling conspiracy on the Red Star and American line piers, pleaded guilty to-day before Judge Hough in the Criminal Branch of the United States Circuit Court in Manhattan and was fined $500.
