A Van TO DIVIDE SUFFOLK COUNTY. Some Eestless Spirits in the' West End Are Exploiting the Idea Will It Be Taken Seriously? Amityville. L. November 8 Since Tuesday's election there 'has been a revival of the heretofore discussed, question of dividing Suffolk County and some prominent men In this section believe that such an act would be advantageous to all the towns concerned, facilitating governmental matters and convenience the. public generally.

Expenditures would be reduced in many instances and improvements result to many localities, where now it is impossible to obtain them, it is claimed. "The advocates of a divison are of the opinion that the western portion of the county is too remote from the county seat, Hiverhead, necessitating In many instances a day's journey and frequently circuitous routes, with excessive expenditures. Some time ago an agitation was started In favor of Patchogue for a county seat, but the scehemo died in its infancy. Those who favor a division of the county, believe that Patchogue should be the. westerly limit of the old portion, and the county seat, as some of the county offices are located there at present and it would be easier to reach than RIverhead.

Islip, Babylon, Smithtown, Huntingtou and Brookhaven, it should be contended, form the new county. All of the above towns have large populations, sufficient assessed valuations and extensive territory for development. Huntington has quite an indebtedness, it is admitted by the partition enthusiasts, but this, it is argued, should not stand as a barrier to carrying out the project. tha prospect cross island trolley in near future at tUe western end of Suffolk, the five towns in that section would be brought in closer relationship, and develop more rapidly if consolidated into a new county, it is believed, while toe eastern section would not suffer any by the withdrawal, as it has a number of rich towns and villages. A prominent town official in discussing the feasibility of dividing Suffolk, said yesterday: "There is no doubt in my mind that, such a plan as dividing Suffolk County would be generally advantageous, although I am not favor of placing governmental authority In a few men's hands.

Riverhead, the county seat, is too far away for people living in the section west of Patchogue. The five western towns would make a county neither too large nor tbo: small. As an instance of excessive expenditure necessary to reach Riverhead, consider what costs every election to get 'returns there. About one hundred miles travel nt an allowance of 5 cents a mile.

THE FLUSHING HOSPITAL Prospects Now Considered Favorable to Keeping the Institution Alive $7,000 Per Annum Must Be Raised.

Flushing, L. November 8 There was a conference' at the Good Citizenship League Building last night to discuss and devise ways and means for obtaining funds to continue the Flushing Hospital and Dispensary, which, as previously stated in. the Eagle, is again in financial distress. Most of the fraternal, benevolent and social organizations in the Third Ward were represented, among the women present being Miss Roslta Birk beck, president of the Good Citizenship League; Miss Mary L. Lyles, Mrs.

John J. Simmons and Mrs. Thomas F. Tuohy. Dr.

MacLeod presided at the conference, and Clarence W. Lowes recorded. John V. Weed explained briefly the status of the hospital. costs about $16,000 a year to maintain the institution.

The income is about $9,000, leaving a difference of about $7,000, which has to be made good by the people of the ward. Last year the donations amounted to $4,408.26, leaving a debt of $1,251.11 at the end of the year. These donations, as a rule, have been made by comparatively few people. It is the purpose now to distribute this burden equally over the population of the Seventh Ward. Various recommendations were made to raise funds for the hospital.

A motion of George V. People prevailed, which was to the effect that individual interest be encouraged by making every person who contributes $1 or more annually a member of the Hospital Association, with the privilege of voting at the annual meeting. William B. Carpenter recommended that donations be made from organizations and that the organizations making such donations be allowed representation in the Hospital Association with the privilege of voting at the annual meeting. This resolution, also, met with general approval, and after considerable discussion the following committee was appointed to further the work and definitely decide as to the best means of raising funds for the hospital: George W.

People, Flushing; Francis R. Clair, College Point: M. Rapelyea, White stone: Abram Kowenhoven, Bay Side; Albert Van Nostrand, Little Neck; Philip Gibbons, Corona. Before the meeting adjourned donations were reported from different organizations amounting to $65. I UPRIGHT BARGAINS.

Jamaica, L. November 8 In the Queens County Surrogate's Court, before Surrogate Daniel Noble yesterday, testimony was taken in the contested wills of the late Ann Reynolds of Flushing and Christian Homeyer of Evergreen. The charge of undue influence was the basis of each action. In the case of the Reynolds' will Kate Farrell and Hugh Reynolds were the contestants, and they sought to show that their brother John had influenced their mother to give him a large part of her estate. The will conditionally gives a house and lot to one of the contestants, while the other receives but $5.

The witnesses examined testified that the son, John J. Reynolds, supported his mother and aided her financially, and it was through these acts that he was remembered in the will and appointed executor of the same. In the Homeyer hearing Clarence Edwards, special guardian for the five children of John Homeyer, who were allowed $25 each by the will, was the principal witness. The conditions were much similar to the preceding case. Surrogate Noble after hearing the testimony rendered his decision from the bench in both cases, holding that each will was made while the decedents were competent in all respects to make a will, and ordered that both documents be admitted to probate.

The will of Ann Reynolds disposes of an estate vcalued at $1,000 real and $6,900 personal property. A house and lot on the north side of Grove street. Flushing is given to her son Hugh, and at his death it is to go to the son John J. to the latter is given $500 in trust, the income to go to Hugh; to Maggie Lawrence, to John George and Frank Cassidy, children of a deceased daughter, Jane, $50 each; to Mamie Cassidy, nnother grandchild, $100; to Kate Farrell, a daughter, John J. Reynolds $1,000, and the residue of the estate, to the son John J.

Reynolds. The will of Christian Homeyer of Evergreen disposes of an estate valued at $8,000 real and $5,300 personal property as follows: To each child of a deceased son, John Is given $25; $200 is to be equally divided be expenses incurred by having the county headquarters so far away. No county ihould be so long in territory as Suffolk. It is so much scattered as to be an inconvenience to itself. By cutting off the westerly portion a nice little county could be formed, and the easterly section still be of important area and one of the best in New York State.

I look for something definite to grow out of this agitation for a new county at a day not far distant." BAYPORT'S NEW DEPOT. Work on It to Begin Tuesday Will Be a Eine Building. Patchogue, L. November 8 Work on the new depot of the Long Island Railroad at Bayport will be started next week, when ground for the foundation will be broken. The company's surveyors have been on the ground this week, and next Monday will place the lines for the foundation, and on Tuesday it is expected the masons will begin on the foundation.

The new building will be of brick covered with concrete, and will be somewhat like the Southampton depot. Its style of architecture will be different from any other depot on the island. It will cost in the neighborhood of $9,000. and will be completed as quickly as possible. The building will be about SO feet long and 22 feet wide, and will be located at the head of Snedlcor avenue, west of the present depot.

Concrete platforms will bo a feature of the new station. The announcement of the beginninR of work on this building, will be hailed with joy by the residents of Bayport, who have been waiting for a long time for the railroad people to start the work. There was some opposition to taking the new site, but by a popular, vote the opposition was completely overshadowed. The new depot will be directly in sight of the bay, and when completed it promises to be one of the finest along the south shore. REMOVED TO A CITY HOSPITAL.
