August 31 The Melvin farm at East Meadow was recently leased by a man named Selinger, who erected a number of crude structures and started a horse slaughtering establishment. The residents bad the managers of the place arrested yesterday and the case will be tried in Justice Seaman's court on Thursday. "What caused the citizens ts become alarmed was the advent of seven crippled horses in the place Saturday, four of which were in such a diseased state that they could hardly be driven to the place. Justice Taylor stated to the town Board of Health yesterday afternoon that he saw drove of horses on the Lyn brook road and their condition attracted his attention. He was informed by the parties in charge of them that they were to be taken to East Meadow.

Justice Taylor said that four of the animals were covered with sores and had every appearance of glanders. Health Officer Lusk visited the East Meadows place Sunday afternoon and found there twenty one animals, some alive, others dead and aemi partlally butchered. He declared the place a nuisance and dangerous to public health and he ordered all work to be immediately discontinued and the refuse matter disposed of according to the health rules of the town. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was notified yesterday and an agent is to make an investigation of the premises this afternoon. POULTRY RAISERS IN SESSION Fishers Island, L.

August 31 To day at the Munnatawket Hotel, on this island, the most important committee ever appointed in the interests of the poultry raising industry of the United States and Canada began a work which will continue probably throughout the week. The committee is one of fifteen members, appointed by the American Poultry Association, and its duties are to revise the' rules regulating standard poultry. There is in existance a book containing rules governing the raising of poultry and poultry to be standard must conform to the laws laid down in this book. A committee of revision mets every five years and the present committee began its work at 10 o'clock this morning. About thirty members of the association were present, including the members of the committee, of which Arthur R.

Sharp of Taunton, is chalTman. David A. Nichols of Monroe, is pres. ident of the association. The work today was mostly preliminary in its character and consisted in the appointment of committees who will take under advisement the various classes of poultry.

Many changes are to be made in the laws and some of them are important. This afternoon the committee, organization having been completed, will begin its formal sessions. Hearings will be granted to all comers, who will be given an opportunity to make suggestions or file requests for legislation. The work of the committee will begin to assume its interesting aspects to morrow when votes will be taken on such proposed changes as may be reached. BTJNDAY GUNNERS ARRESTED.

Southampton, L. August 31 Special Game Protector Morgan M. Jackson of East Quogue arrested James Ingraham, police Justice of Long Island City; J. "Wardsup and Charles O. Herx of New York, and George Jacobs of Good Ground last Sunday on a charge of shooting snipe on Sunday.

The prisoners were taken to Southampton and had a hearing before Justice H. M. Howell, who held the parties for trial next Saturday afternoon. The gunners had been warned by the proprietor of the hotel at Good Ground, where they stopped, against Sunday gunning, but they said they would show the countrymen that they could shoot when they pleased. There has been considerable Sunday gunning of late in the vicinity of Gc odi Ground and Special Game Protector Jackson had received numerous complaints in regard to the matter.

Last Sunday he determined to arrest the lawbreakers. He had not been on the watch but a short time when his attention was called to gun reports on the beach and, upon arriving on the scene, he found the four parties named engaged in shooting snipe. The protector placed the gunners under arrest, siezed the boat and guns and four dead snipe. There is a penalty here of $25 for each bird killed on Sunday. A THIEVES' ADVANCE AGENT.

Freeport, L. August 31 Last night burglars entered the store of John H. Smith oh Fulton street and stole about $100 worth of goods. Entrance was obtained through the rear window of the buUdlng. A peculiar incident connected with the robbery Is that a number of residents have found marks cut on their gate posts this morning Deputy Sheriff Alexander R.

Rhodes, who is investigating the case, was informed by Alexander Losee that he had also discovered fresh marks on his gate post, apparently done with a penknife. The officer then made an examination of a post opposite Smith's store and found upon it eight marks. Rhodes says that he believes there is an organized band who have in their employ an advance agent, who spends a short time in each village and after selecting several houses and stores, he places a preconcerted mark on the fences or posts so that his companions will have a clew to work on. He says the eight marks on Smith's post may have indicated that the place was usually closed for the night at o'clock. MEDALS FOR LIFE SAVERS.

Rockaway Beach, L. August 31 The annual ball of the Volunteer Life Saving Corps took place last night. Cottagers and hotel guests turned out In large numbers to show their appreciation of the life savers' work.

Westley Jones, president of the Volunteer Life Saving Corps. Dancing followed the presentation. RUSH FROM COUNTRY BEGUN. Good Ground, L. August 31 The return rush of the summer guests has commenced In earnest and nearly one hundred departed from here to day, quite a few going to Newport via Sag Harbor, taking the steamer Long Island from there.

This trip is being made by many this year. Next Saturday, Sunday and Monday will see very heavy travel toward Brooklyn from this end of the Island. BURGLARS AT BAY SHORE. Bay Shore, L. August 31 Burglars broke into the bathing pavilion of Benjamin at the foot of Clinton avenue, on Sunday nigbt and stole a watch, chain and locket valued at $110 owned by Mrs.

Charles Bates of the Prospect House; about $3 in small change, five gold rings, some cigars and cigarettes. READY FOR THE OVSTER SEASON Good Ground, L. August 31 The outlook for oystermen here is promising. Samples taken from the beds show the oysters to be in first class condition and very fat. The men who handle scallops here report them to be more plentiful than last year and larger in size than for several years past.

Both the oyster and scallop men are bus now getting Two More Boys Arrested for Attempted Train Wrecking. ONE STILL ELUDES THE POLICE. Young McFeeney Admits That He Placed a Stone on the Track Anxiety of the Boys' Parents No. 558 in the Rogues' Gallery Held for the Grand Jury Holy Name Society on an Outing at Ulmer Park. Thomas McFeeley, aged 15 years, and John Lyons, aged 11 years, two of the three boys who escaped after their unsuccessful attempt to wreck a loaded passenger train returning from Brighton Beach at 7 o'clock Sunday night, were arrested last night by officers of the Second Precinct.

Both boys were arraigned before Justice Steers in the Grant street police court, Flatbush, this morning and held In $1,000 bail for examination on September 8. Neither of the boys appeared to be much affected by his arrest. They talked and laughed in their cell and even when visited by his parents young Lyons did not break down. The boy LyonB lives with his parents at 189 John street, and McFeeley's home is at 39 Little street. The fifth boy, William Burns, who lives on Plymouth street, between Hudson and Little, was still in hiding this morning.

The two boys arraigned in court this morning were as firm in their declaration that they had no principal part in the attempt at train wrecking as were those yesterday who named McFeeley as the leader. McFeeley, however, did acknowledge, when questioned, that he had placed one stone on the railroad track, but had quickly taken It off again. He did this, he said, to see the stone crusnea. Both boys were apparently as anxious to have Burns annrfihendml a werA Campbell and McCauley yesterday that their companions should be arrested. McFeeley Joyous are small ror the ages given and were poorly dressed.

Both of them conversed freely and intelligently for children of their years. Mrs. Lyons, who, with her husband, Henry, spent an hour in front of the cell in which the boys were confined who gnrimn to know what punishment would be given the uuyn, mm wuen torn tnat tbey would probably get a long term in confinement, said probably it was for the best, as she had been unable to control her boy for some time. OLD OFFENDER IN TROUBLE. August Sherman of 932 Flushing avenue was before Justice Steers in the Flatbush court this morning to answer to a charge of steal ing $12 worth of clothing and a pocketbook from George Meeks of 232 St.

Marks avenue. Sherman, who the police believe has been connected with a number of flat robberies, was arrested last night by Detectives Long and Crowe of the Twenty second Precinct. He called at the Meeks' home and telling Mrs. Meeks that her husband desired some clothing had obtained a package which he kept. Sherman had been employed as a waiter by Meeks.

When the prisoner acknowledged that he had been in the penitentiary Justice Steers said he would hold him In bail for the grand Jury. Later, however, he was brought before the bar and told that if he wanted to plead guilty the case would at once be disposed of. Sherman said he had served two terms in the penitentiary, but that was several years ago, and for the past five years he had lived an honest life and asked that clemency be shown him. Justice Steers sent him to Jail until to morrow to permit an Investigation to be made. Tho police give the prisoner a bad name and say his picture is No.

558 in the rogues' gallery. HOLY NAME SOCIETY'S FESTIVAL.

Stephen M. Caslin, the wife of the proprietor of the Carleton House on Kent ave nue and South Ninth street, who is stopping at the Villa St. George on Twentieth avenue, Bensonhurst, is lllng her friends about an experience she l.nu with a supposed burglar early yesterday morning. Mrs. Caslin occupies a room directly over the front porch of the villa and she says that between midnight and 3 o'clock she was awakened by a slight noise.

The next Instant she felt a slight touch on her foot and then a hand containing a handkerchief was passed over her face and she smelled chloroform. Mrs. Caslin says she did not dare move, but pinched her husband, who cried out, "What are you doing?" Then the shadow of a man was seen going across the room and out the door. Mrs. Caslin awoke some of tho other boarders and told them of her experience.

A search of the house failed to find any stranger. Mrs. Smith the proprietress, of the villa, discredits the burglar theory and thinks Mrs. Caslin must have been dreaming. Nothing Is missing from the house and none of the windows or doors show any signs of having been forced.

Police Captain Burford of the Twenty ninth Precinct was much put out because Mrs. Caslin had not reported the case. FLATBUSH NOTES. A. B.

n. most respeoted residents of the old Town of Platlands, died at his residence, Neck Road, Old Time Taxpayers, Like Those of Today, Complained of Excessive Assessments. Oyster Bay, L. August 31 It is a curious coincidence that 100 years ago taxpayers objected to the work of the town assessors as they are doing to day. Among the most forcible protests received regarding this year's assessment is that of F.

J. Richardson of Johnston, who has been raised from $500 to while his next door neighbor sustained a raise of from $400 to $800 only. Richardson is a Republican, too, showing that the assessors were not actuated by any political motive in doing what Richardson claims to be an injustice. Another man found that his place was raised from $500 to $2,500, while his neighbor, whose place was slightly larger and his house exactly the same, was rated at $2,000. The first party called the attention of the assessors to the fact, thinking he would get a new rating, instead of which, however, the other party was raised $500 to equalize the assessments.

The protests written and verbal would give subject matter for a volume, but they are all much the same. Following is a letter received by the assessors 100 years ago from one of the largest land owners around this section, a grandfather of ex Assistant District Attorney Robert Townsend: Oyster Bay, May 13, 1707. Gentlemen: As I shall be absent at the time you nd vertlse to meet and mako out your assessment lor tne present year, am now to assure you that myself, mother and sisters were much too hlsrh in the last assessments In reality, hut. in comparison to many of our neighbors, out of all proportion. If you will examine the old books with attention 1 tmnK you will be convinced that the assessments are very unequal; and I think a certain person couia nave miormed vou with more certainty that many persons were too low man ne cuuiu oi our iamuy ot wnom ne nacl no rignt to say anytning as ne nad no real know edge of their circumstances.

They have been too hlffh on the books for several years prior to the last year when I was raised 500. and Captain Farley 700. It will be necessary to leave my brother William and myself out of the assessment for the presnt year as he has no property and I am no longer a resident of Oyster Bay. I am, gentlemen, yours resepctfully. ROBERT TOW.N3DND.

August 31 At a meeting of the "Water Board of this city last evening a resolution was adopted that the wells of Pumping Station No. 2, at Bowery Bay, be disconnected and the supply of water therefrom be forthwith discontinued and stopped and the services of the employes be dispensed with.

The wells of the pumping station are driven so near the bay that the supply from the other stations was contam inated by a salty supply of water that made the wholesome water unfit for drinking purposes. Tht supply was also scarce, and after 9 A. M. water was not obtainable. The residents In the upper end, or Astoria section, of the city will now have to rely upon a limited water supply furnished by the Woodslde Water Company, of which Mayor Gleason is the alleged backer.
