Hempstead, L. June 5The date set for the opening of the new trolley line between this place and Queens Is July 4, but It Is extremely doubtful If the road can be completed by that date, judging from the present progress being made along the line. The trolley people are undertaking to construct their own line, and have not let any of the work to contractors. The National Trading Company ot 26 Court street, Brooklyn, a contracting company, with Paul C. Grenning as president, sent their representatives to call on President Ensign of the trolley company, Tuesday afternoon to get the contract to complete the work between here and the Queens terminal.

After calling on Mr. Ensign, it was decided to have a conference on the matter at 8 o'clock that evening, at Hempstead, and as the party had "lenty of spare time on their bands, they took a trip to Freeport on the new trolley line. On their return trip the trolley car uddenly stopped, and as the power had evidently played out the car could not be moved. Desperate efforts were made by President Grenning of the trading company to get some sort of a conveyance to carry them to Hempstead, but none could be procured, and the disgusted Brooklynites were obliged to leave the car and walk to Freeport, just in time to catch a train for home.

McDONOUGH, 'Jecretary of Stat. WILL REOPEN Transshipment of Some of the Machinery Does Not Mean Dismantling the Factory.

WORKS SUPPORT 1,500 PEOPLE. Corn Products Company's Officials Say Their Removal Is Practically Impossible and Has Not Been Discussed. (Special to the Eagle.) Glen Cove, L. June 5 The conflicting rumors concerning the closing of the starch factory at this place, caused by the removal of some of the machinery and its shipment to New York City and the reshipment of two barge loads of coal to the city, as published in yesterday's Eagle, has caused great excitement about the Village of Glen Cove. The merchants, bank officials, hotel landlords and property owners generally look upon the starch works, which employ 350 hands, as the mainstay of the village.

The factory employes and their families comprise a population of over 1,500 people. Most of the employes who were laid off have secured employment as assistants to the carpenters, masons, landscape gardeners and painters on the large new residences being put up about this place, so that ao actual suffering exists in consequence of the shut down at present. Should it continue, however, a large number of the employes would have to move away before the beginning of next winter and get employment at their trade in other places. An Eagle reporter calling at the main office of the National Corn Products Company in Manhattan, the corporation which now controls the National Starch Company, was assured that the closing of the Glen Cove Starch Works is only temporary, pending repairs and other matters. When asked what was meant by the shipment of some of the machinery of the works from Glen Cove and the return of two barge loads of coal to New York, one of the representative officials of the corporation said: "That is only an ordinary occurrence.

This corporation, which now controls thirty large factories in the United States, frequently ships machinery from one establishment to another, instead of buying it new, and it Is afterward replaced at the point from which it is taken when needed. This is one of the advantages of the consolidation. The trans shipment of coal means nothing. is practically impossible to close up and. remove the factory from Glen Cove and no such measure has been considered.

The largest factory in control of the Corn Products Company, and the largest in the world, Is the glucose sugar factory at Peoria, 111., and the Glen Cove factory makes most of our corn products and sells many by products, one 'of the most important of which is 6tarch feed for the farmers." No information could be gained as to the date of the reopening of the Glen Cove works.

Rockaway Beach, L. June 5 The long delay in taking the injured persons to the hospital after Sunday morning's fire has awakened the citizens of this place to the necessity for an emergency hospital. The persons so terribly burned in the big fire at Sea Side early Sunday morning lay in a bar room filled with tobacco smoke and foul air from about 3:15 o'clock to 7:45 o'clock four full hours before they could be removed to St. John's Hospital, in Long Island City, where they could be properly attended to. A hospital such as is maintained at Coney Island is needed here.

During the summer season thousands of visitors come to the beach daily, and accidents are numerous, and much more satisfactory results could be obtained in cases if proper attendance was close at hand. Several times before such an institution has been proposed, but nothing was done. It is now proposed to take active measures to bring about such a result. CARRYING OFP A BUILDING.

He Had Purloined His Daughter's Wardrobe to Get Her to Give Up Barnstorming, BUT COMEDIAN BEGUILED HIM. Under the Influence of Stimulants and Stories He Surrendered It and the Flay Went On. (Special to the Hagle.) Freeport, L. June 5 "Hasn't my trunk got here yet?" was the surprised remark of Miss Dora Ford, who is billed as the prima donna of the Vernon Stock Company, as she arrived at the Opera House yesterday afternoon to prepare Jot a dress rehearsal for the evening performance. "Oh, yes," said the call boy, "the trunk got hero all right, but your papa has sent It to New York." Then the prima donna emitted a high scream and said a lot ot uncomplimentary things about papa.

After she had cooled down she flounced out to look for her paternal guardian. Mr. Ford is an going old party, who travels about with the stock company as chaperon for his two daughters, who play In the company. He didn't like some of the things that happened and he insisted on his daughter leaving the company. This she refused to do, and yesterday afternoon he got possession of Dora's trunk, containing a wardrobe valued at $200, had It carted to Baldwins railroad station and checked for the city.

On learning this and that the trunk could not be obtained from the railroad authorities without the check, which her father stubbornly refused to give up, Dora went before Police Justice A. B. in company with Counselor Leo Fishel, and entered a complaint of grand larceny against the obdurate parent. Pending the hearing, the comedian ot the company, who knows that molasses catches more flies than vinegar, asked the old man around the corner to have a drink. This is an Invitation that he seldom retuses.

One drink followed another and between each the comedian told over all his old chestnuts and the combination was too much for Mr. Ford. So, when the time for the hearing came, the clever comedian, with the check for the trunk in his hand, was seen leading the now happy father to the Justice's court, where the charge was withdrawn, the trunk was replevined and the performance went on.
