Coroner Cronin Finally Decides to Act on the Case of John Arts. Long Island City, L. August 14 A curious condition of affairs developed before Magistrate Healy, in the police court this morning, when Antonio Lucanio of Corona was arraigned on a charge of murder.

He was caught in Hoboken, X. and brought here on requisition papers, two weeks ago. He is charged with being implicated with his brother in the murder of John Arts, at Corona, on June 24. Both men escaped and one has not yet been caught. John M.

Craven, counsel for the prisoner, said that he called at the Coroner's office in Jamaica yesterday and was informed by the clerk that Coroner Cronin had charge of the case and had postponed the inquest Indefinitely. "it seems to me," said Magistrate Healy. "that this defendant has some rights that should be respected." Assistant District Attorney Drew stated that he called upon Coroner Cronin yesterday and urged the Coroner to set a day for the inquest and he finally named a week from next Thursday. The coroners in the Borough of Queens are paid $4,000 a year, but Coroner Cronin is deputy chairman of the county central committee of the Democracy and he has been very busy with political matters of late.

One Contemplates a Structure on the Bansome Idea. (Special to the Eagle.) Mineola, L. August 14 The Board of Supervisors of Nassau County at their meeting yesterday afternoon adopted a resolution authorizing an issue of 565,000 building bonds to run thirty years at 3h per cent, per annum interest. The proceeds from the sale of the honds will he used to defray the cost of erect ins the new county jail, plans for which have already been approved, and which will be erected in the rear of the court house now in course of construction. The contract for the Jail will be awarded as soon as the sale of the honds has been consummated, which will be within the month.

As the plans for the court house provide for the location of the heating and lighting plants in the cellar of the Jail building, it is necessary that the work upon the jail begin as early as possible to avoid any further delays upon the courthouse. Bids for the purchase of the bonds will probably be invited within a week, and at the same time an invitation to contractors to bid upon the erection of the jail will also be issued. Two sets of specifications have been prepared for the jail, one calling for a building of stone, brick and iron, and another for a building similar to the court house, on the Ransome system concrete and cold twisted steel construction. County Engineer Firth submitted a report on the condition of the roads and bridges in the county system, which was ordered placed on file. Engineer Firth reports the roads as in good condition generally throughout the county, and makes recommendations for the protection of the roads during the coming winter.

He recommends changes in the dam at Clapham's pond, Glemvood, the rebuilding of the docking on the Sands Point road at Port Washington, and the replacing of the bridges at Jones Pond and Cameron's Pond on the Merrick road, with stone and iron bridges. The present wooden bridges have been condemned by the county engineer as unsafe and warnings posted to that effect. The report also recommends the resurfacing o' Main street, East Rockaway, with Peek skill gravel, and the purchase ot a carload of iron pipe for use on the roads in cases of emergency.
