Held for Jury on Operation Charge Mrs. Estelle Irwin, 43-year-old housewife, of 78 Prospect Av., Ba- yonne, who, police say, admitted the allegation made by the mother of five children that the defendant performed a criminal operation upon her, was held without bail pending action by the grand jury following arraignment in Bayonne Police Court yesterday. Immediately after the testimony of Detective Sergt. Thomas War- nock, one of the arresting officers, was heard, Recorder James L. Sweeney bound Mrs. Irwin over for grand jury action in $2,500 bail on the charge of criminal abortion. While friends of the woman were trying to raise bail, word came from Hoboken that the plaintiff suddenly took a turn for the worse at St. Mary's Hospital, where she is confined. It was then decided to let the Hudson County Prosecutor's Office fix the amount of bail. Mrs. Irwin was placed under ar- rest late Tuesday afternoon by Warnock and Acting Detective Frank McGeehan following in- formation forwarded by the Hobo- ken police who said Mrs. Johanna Lindsey, 40, of 68 Washington St., was severely ill and that she had named a woman known to her only as "Estelle" as having performed an operation upon her. She said a girl friend had brought her to "Estelle's" home in Bayonne. After several hours of search, the detec- tives took Mrs. Estelle Irwin in custody and, after much grilling, succeeded in obtaining an admis- sion that the Hoboken woman had visited her, although she at first made vehement denial of the ac- cusation, they say.
