YOUNG MEN FACE
SERIOUS CHARGE
Frank Long Bound Over on
Charge of Attempt Assault;
Companion is Held on
Same Charge.
Frank Long, 5212 South Twenty-
iuumi sircei, was nciq lor ine aisirici
court under $1,000 bonds Friday on a
charge of attempt to assault Miss
Helen Meillinger, 1927 'South Eight
eenth street. - s
Robert Toner, South Sixteenth
street, was placed under $1,000 bonds
for appearance August 16 to answer
to the same charge against Miss Anna
Alderman, 1909 South 'Eighteenth
street. Miss Alderman is confined to
her bed suffering from nervous pros
tration as a ijesult of the attack and
was unable to appear in court.
Fearing publicity, the young ladies
did not report the outrage to the po
lice. William Helen, a salesman for
the Murphy-O'Brien Auto company,
reported that he had brought twjo
young women to the business section
of town Wednesday night after hear
ing their cries for help from a lonely
spot near Fortieth and Lake streets.
He did not learn the names of the
women nor the names of the
men they charged with the assault.
Detectives Dunn and Jolly armed
with these meager facts, found the
young women and later apprehended
the alleged assailants.
Both young men are out on bond
charged with petty larceny. It is al
leged that they robbed a filling sta
tion on Fortieth and Cuming streets
or gasoline. Long is also charged
with stealing cream cans from a local
creamery. They will have a hearing
on the petty larceny charges Saturday.
The young women's version of the
affair as tijld by Miss Meillinger is
that they accepted .an invitation for
a short auto ride with the two men.
They soon became lost, according to
Long, and he insisted on driving
toward Florence. The girls became
frightened and insisted upon return
ing as the men commenced making
advances to them. The machine then
stopped and the girls got out to see
what was the matter when they were
struck and forced to the side of the
road. Their screams attracted the at
tion of Helen and the men fled.
Use All Cars to Carry
Soldiers to Barbecue
In carrying the soldiers Saturday
from Fort Crook to Riverview park,
where a barbecue will be' given for
the boys, the Omaha Street Railway
company expects to press all its
available cars into the service. From
Fort Crook the service will be in
creased by a number of the large
open cars used on the Omuia and
Council Bluffs line. These cars will
work between the fort and Valley
street.
The Omaha crowds will be car
ried on the standard cars on the
Sottth Thirteenth street line switch
ing at Valley street. Extra cars will
be used and, if necessary, a one
minute service will be inaugurated
during the rush hours of the after
noon and evening.
The ;stimate of the street railway
people is that 1,200 soldiers will be
carried between Fort Crook and the
park. y
The men from Fort Omaha will be
entrainuu at Thirtieth and Fort
streets, and special cars' will be run
direct to VaWey street, on the South
Thirteenth street line.
