The only identifying detail here is a name, "Chas. C. Darwin," which the Library of Congress notes comes from unverified caption data written by the Bain News Service. The surname will call to mind the naturalist, but he died in 1882, long before the agency began operating in New York around 1899, so the name most likely refers to someone else. George Grantham Bain built his service into one of the largest news photo files of the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives document the people and events that filled American newspapers of that era.
