to day filed a petition in the United States District Court asking that the Maltfolm Brewing Company of Franklin and Flushing avenues be declared involuntary bankrupts! A subpena was served on George Malcolm directing him to. answer the charge in court on August 21. This is a counter action taken by these creditors of the brewing company to prevent the dissolution of the firm and volun tary bankruptcy: The company had applied to Justice Duckey asking for permission for dissolution, and. C. Henry Off erman and Albert H.

F. Seeker have been appointed temporary receivers. The claim of the petition ing creditors is that the firm should not be allowed to dissolve itself voluntarily, but should, be "compelled to go through bankruptcy. Heury Doscher has four claims, as ol loffl For money loaned on promissory note in February, i90O, aote indorsed to indorsed to him by Claus Doscher for $8,500 and "another for $1,000, also indorsed by Claus Doscher. Griffin's claim is for an as signed claim of the Rooney Otter Print ing Company for goods sold, and Schwartz's 'claim Is.

for goods sold. It is stated in the petition that the brew ing company transferred property to Thomas Morgan, a creditor, in July, and therefore committed an act of bankruptcy. After the commencement of an action by Doscher to recover for the notes, it is stated, and two days before the company, filed the voluntary petition for. dissolution, they paid money to J. Henry Dick, thereby preferring a creditor.

The indebtedness of the 'company is placed at $317,571.57, and the value of the brewery and stock, at $757,594.42. The Nassau Trust Company holds mortgages against the property to the amount of Henry F. Cochrane is attorney for the petitioners. NOT INSTRUCTING DELEGATES. Senator Piatt Suggests That It Is Too Early for Starting Roosevelt Boom.

Dunn Sees Low. Senator Piatt was considerably amused this morning with reading some of the interviews alleged to have been had wlth him at Oyster Bay yesterday, in which he was made to say that the next Republican state convention would proceed to Instruct delegates for Roosevelt to the next Republican National Convention. As the national convention is about two years off and delegates to It will not be elected until a year from next spring, Senator Piatt suggested that such talk was slightly premature. "As a matter of fact, there was no talk yesterday about Instructing delegates or indorsements," said Senator Piatt. "That the next Republican state convention, to as semble In Saratoga in September, will indorse President Roosevelt's administration is a matter of course." Colonel George.

Dunn; the chairman of the Republican State Committee, called on Mayor Low this morning and had a talk with the latter. They were In conversation In the Mayor's private office for over half an hour. When he was leaving, the Colonel was asked about the object of his visit. "I called to pay my personal respects to the Mayor of this great city," he replied. "Did you discuss politics?" "Yes, but I do not think I can let you knowwhat occurred." "Political affairs in this city?" "Yns, we hac" some talk relating to' politics here." "Anything about the police?" "Well, we did touch on the police very slightly." "Did you have any conversation about the tunnels or the relation of the State Railroad Commission to the New York Central matter?" "Not at all." Colonel Dunn said he.

hopes to see the Mayor soon again for another interview. WANT RECREATION PIER. South Brooklynites to Have a Hearing at Bock Commissioner's Office To morrow. Members of the South Brooklyn and "West End boards of trade believe that the hearing on a recreation pier near Hamilton ferry, to be held at 11 o'clock in the Dock Commissioner's office, Pier Manhattan, to morrow morning, Is the result steps taken by their respective organizations about four months ago. While neither the South Brooklyn nor the West End boards asked for anything more than a public pier, the outcome, the members will be a pier that will be for business purposes and pleasure combined.

That the city officials will grant their request tor a public pier they are confident. In March last the Sout Brooklyn Board of Trade decided to make application to the city for the establishment of two piers In the Bay Ridge district. After thoroughly discussing tha matter a committee composed of William E. Cleary, A. J.

Calder and Audley Clark was appointed to wait on the proper officials. The West End Board of Trade ap pointed a committee of similar character, numbered among whom were Charles Hamilton and Elmer S. White. After conferring with Dock Department Commissioner Jackson Wallace the South Brooklyn committee circulated a petition asking that such pier as was wanted be built. That application has not yet been presented but will bo in a week or ten days.

It has 1,000 signatures. Mr. Cleary, when seen at. his office In Manhattan to day, said that he would be glad to have South Brooklyn get a pier of public utility. It made no difference what sort of a pier was' built, so long as afforded proper facilities for loading and discharging cargo.

At present there was, practically speaking, no public pier between Wal labout and Sixty fifth street. South Brooklyn was building up rapidly, especially in the Bay Ridge section and each day the need of a pier was made more apparent, Mr. Cleary said. "What the South Brooklyn Board of Trade said Mr. "was that two suitable piers for businoss purposes be built, one at Fifty first street, the other at Bay Ridge avenue.

The city owns the property at these points and the expense of building piers there would be. comparatively small. They would prove of great benefit. They are extremely necessary." Frederick Bruckbauer, president of the South Brooklyn Board of Tr de, said to dav that, while the organization A. which he was the head had made no cation to have a recreation pier built, it would nevertheless indorse any plan, that would give South Brooklyn a public pier, whether coupled with one for recreation or not, so long as located In the proper place.

PESTIEATIDN OF RIOT. Sends a Letter to Police Commissioner Partridge Requesting a Full Report. 'DISCREDIT TO WHOLE CITY." Hebrews Assaulted in Rabbi Joseph's Funeral Procession Complainants in Court To day. Mayor Low has set on foot an investigation into the circumstances attendant upon the riot in the streets of Manhattan and Brook lyn yesterday upon the occasion of the fun eral of Rabbi Joseph and declares such a riot to have been a discredit to the whole city. The Mayor sent the following letter to Commissioner Partridge this morning with a view to ascertaining the facts in con nection with the outbreak: New York, July 31, 1902.

John N. Partridge, Police Commissioner: sioner: Sir I desire you to make a careful report to me on the disturbance yesterday or tne funeral procession of Rabbi Joseph. Such an incident is discreditable to our city, and I want to be fully informed as to the origin of it, so as to be able, if possible, to see that those who are responsible for it are properly dealt with. Respectfully, SETH LOW. Mayor.

That the East Side Hebrews feel deeply over the events attending the funeral of Rabbi Joseph was evidenced by the attendance in the Essex Market court. Manhattan, this morning. The court room was crowded with indignant men and women, many of whom bore marks of rough usage received in yesterday's riots. District Attorney Jerome early took a hand in the proceedings, through his assistant, Charles H. Studin.

Mr. Studin entered the court just as Magistrate Mayo was having some trouble with Lawyers Leonard A. Snltkin, Alexander Rosenthal and Isidor Cohen, all of whom appeared for complaining Hebrews. The case before the court was that of Henry Stockhusen, an employe of Hoe who was charged with squirting water over Policeman William Maher of the Eldridge street station. There were other complainants against the Hoe employe, who were represented by the lawyers.

These wanted the complaint changed to one of assault, which charge Magistrate Mayo was loath to entertain. It was1 as the argument waxed warm that Assistant District Attorney Studin entered the court room. Then the magistrate told the lawyers to subside and said that Mr. Studin would officiate as counsel for the complainants. Before the case against Stockhusen was heard Joseph Kaplan of .49 Chrystle street, driver of one of the coaches in yesterday's funeral procession, obtained a warrant for the arrest of one of Hoe foremen for throwing a stream of water on him from a hose.

During Stockusen's examination, George Stillgenbauer, another of Hoe's employes, who said ho lives at 322 South First street. Brcoklvn, testified that he was standing be hind Stockhusen when the latter had the hose in his possession and that the bricks came so fast that the water was thrown to drive the men away. The complaints of disorderly conduct against Stockhusen were withdrawn at the suggestion of Assistant District Attorney Studin and Magistrate Mayo and complaints of assault were made against Stockhusen and Stillgenbauer. The two men were then held in $500 bail each for examination next Tuesday. An effort was made to have the examination of the men put off until later, but Congressman Goldfogle objected, saying it was the aim to have the examinations postponed until the wave of indignation should blow over.

City Marshal Albert Lebine picked out George Church, who saya he lives at Stamford, as an employe of Hoe's factory, who had thrown water on him. A complaint of assault was made against him and he was held in bail for examination next Tuesday. Manager Collins, of the printing press manufactory offered to become bondsman for Stockhusen and Stillgenbauer, offering his house in Flatbush as security, but Magistrate Mayo refused to accept it. When the men were taken out of the court room the Hebrews expressed their satisfaction by gig gling. Assistant District Attorney Studin during the examination of Stockhusen said that yesterday's trouble was the most disgraceful riot act that ever occurred in this city.

District Attorney Jerome said this" morning that he did not tee how he could take any official cognizance' of the riot attendant upon the funeral of Rabbi Joseph. He thought the police might have done better. "The action of Hoe employes was an outrage," said the district attorney "but an investigation is purely a matter for the police. I do not see how I can take anv official cognizance of it. The police should have known from the crowds that commenced to gather In the morning that a big force of policemen would be needed and it seems to me that if all precautions had been taken there would have been no trouble.

But i all a matter which concerns the Police department and not the district attorney." PARTRIDGE DON'T KNOW YET. Waiting fc Wore Facts Before Making a Statement About the Riots. Police Commissioner Partridge was interviewed in his office this morning concerning the rioting on Grand street yesterday afternoon, when Rabbi Joseph's funeral procession was passing R. Hoe Co's factory. He was asked if he had formed any opinion as to who was responsible for the outbreak, and whether he thought the police had acted with unnecessary brutality in suppressing the trouble.

The Commissioner replied that the situation was an unusual one. Tolice preparations had beeu made for what it was believed would be an ordinary East Side demonstration. "Do you think the police did or did not exceed their duty iu clubbing the people?" he was asked. "What are they carrying clubs for?" replied the Commissioner. Thou he added quickly: That is something I can't answer.

I am making an investigation for my own information based on what I have seen in the public press. I have my own opinion of course. I would be an ass if I didn't form some opinion. 1 11 have to get more facts, however, and more infqrmation before I can express that opinion for publication." The Commissioner was then told that manv people on the East Side who claimed to have been present during the entire time the trouble was in progress, insisted that the police at the beginning of the outbreak, instead of going Into Hoe factory and stopping tbe alleged disorderly acts of the men and boys there, that precipitated the' riot, seemed to enjoy the discomfiture of the Hebrews who were being pelted from the factory windows, and that they laughed at the latter. These people, the Commissioner was told, were convinced that had the police acted promptly at the first sign of disorderly conduct in the factory, there would have been no rioting.

It was pointed out to him that when a similar outbreak took place in Brooklyn, as the procession was passing a factory there, the police nipped the trouble in the. bud by promptly entering the factory and stopping further demonstrations and arresting the men who threw a missile. "I have no ofilcial information en this point, and have received no complaint. You have Just told me something that is news to me." "Are you going to ask any of these East VEAY ILL WITH PNEUMONIA. Physicians Held a Consultation To day; No Change in Patient's Condition.

REST AND QUIET PRESCRIBED. The AlHerman Wanted to Attend the Recent Tunnel Conference, but Physicians Forbade It. Alderman James J. Bridges is seriously ill with pneumonia at his 285 Front street. The Alderman has been sick since Saturday, but it was not until Monday that the symptoms of.

pneumonia had developed. On that day the Alderman was forced to take to his bed. Dr. David Davidson, the family physician, was summoned and he Immediately pronounced Alderman Bridges' condition as dangerous. Dr.

Davidson and Dr. Boland held a con sultation this morning. At Mr. Bridges home it was said that his condition had not changed during the past twenty four hours. Absolute rest and quiet have been prescribed by the physicians.

Alderman Bridges' friends did not learn of his illness until to day. His absence from the conference at the Mayor's office on the Pennsylvania tunnel franchise on Tuesday was commented on, but few were aware of the Alderman's condition. At his home this morning Bernard J. Bridges, his son. said his father tried hard to Induce his doctor to let him attend the conference at the Mayor's office, although at the time he was oarely able to move In his bed.

Alderman Bridges was one of those who objected to the approval of the Pennsylvania tunnel franchise prepared by the Rapid Tran sit Commission, and he was most active in his opposition to it. He spoke against it at the meeting of the Board of Aldermen when the franchise came up for consideration two weeks ago and later at the hearing held by the committee on railroads of the same board. Alderman Bridges is one of the most unique characters in public life. He has been a member of the Board of Aldermen for the past four years and during that time been the most conspicuous figure in that body. It was as a speaker that Alderman Bridges first gained his reputation.

He has made it a practice to speak on every important topic that has come before the He has a strong voice and whenever he spoke he made the Aldermanic chamber ring. Personally Alderman Bridges is a most genial man. He has been known to hold up resolutions in the Board of Aldermen in which public officials were interested, because, as he said, he did not understand their purport. When these same officials would go to the Alderman and explain the resolutions in 'question he would Immediately withdraw his objections and even won nara to nave tne resolution adopted. Alderman Bridges' longest fight was against a resolution introduced at the request of the Rapid Transit Commission extending the Manhattan subway to a part of the Bronx not covered In the original plans.

He claimed that the resolution was drawn In the, interests of a' railroad company. He persistently fought, against it, and amount of persuasion cvould induce him to alter his position. Among his constituents the Alderman is well liked. His district is Democratic, and is controlled by former Congressman John M. Clancy.

Alderman Bridges and Mr. Clancy are close friends. Before he was nominated for Alderman Mr. Bridges was a clerk in the County Court. During his first, term in the Board of Aldermen he chairman of two important committees, the Fusionites ignored him when the present board was organized and placed him on only one committee that on education.

The Alderman declined this appointment. Alderman is a widower. He has seven children, four sons and three daughters. One of his sons, Bernard "Bridges, Is a clerk in the Court of Special Sessions. Another John J.

Bridges is chief recording clerk in the Surrogate's office, and another, James J. Bridges, Is a member of the Fire Department. Two of Alderman Bridges' daughters are married. A FIND FOR StTPERBAS. This Man Makes a Record at Stopping Thrown Glasses.

A trolley party to Ridgewood Park on Tuesday night was compelled to stop at the junction of three thoroughfares because of a cranky switch. There were about two hundred persons in the party. During the delay one man spied a saloon half a block' distant and he and about sixty others took advantage of the delay and the opportunity to treat their women friends. Before many of the girls had the glasses to their mouths the cars started. The saloon keeper went wild.

Seventy five drinks passed out, not yet paid for, and not even a chance of getting his glasses back, was his plight. The car began to move faster and his dif ficulty in collecting glasses was still more aggravated. The car moved a bit faster still and the saloon keeper was frantic. He moved back to the sidewalk and yelled to the men to throw the glasses at him one at a time. The glasses began to come at him faster ana faster and he did not get a chance to set them down, but had to drop them.

The car moved a little faster still and the rain of glasses, large and small, coming at the poor fellow from every direction, was laughable sight. On the return trip some of tne men stopped in the saloon and learned that only three or four glasses were broken. These were cheerfully paid for, and the president of the club said he would recommend the saloon keeper for a place with the Superbas next season. ENNIS APPEARS SANE. Remarkable Change Wrought by Prison Life in the Condemned Wife Murderer.

William Ennis, the ex p.ollceman under sentence to be executed for killing his wife, is said to be greatly improved in appear ance and health since his confinement in the death house at Sing Sing. This Information was given' out to day by an official of the County Court, "who saw Ennis a day or so ago in his cell. This official knows Ennis well and was present all through the trial, at which the attempt was made to show that the murderer was not in his right mind. According to the official, Ennis has been shorn of his long hair and has had his whiskers trimmed. He is also said to have entirely lost the wild look that horrified spectators at the trial.

His eyes no longer roll about in their sunken sockets, and bis limbs have ceased their violent tremblings. Ennis, the official says, now looks like a sane man and behaves like one. The official has always believed that Ennis was shamming insanity at 'his trial, and tbe present appearance and actions of the condemned in Sing Sing confirm him in his belief. Ennis, he says, is naturally nervous, the same as any man would be waiting for his day of doom. He'spendB a great deal of his time seated on his cot, apparently in deep meditation, and has very little to say to his keepers In the death house.

The official was given no opportunity to speak to the condemned. Ennis was sentenced to dio on the week beginning Monday, August 4, by Judge As plnall in the County Court, on May 23. His counsel entered' an appeal on May 28, which acts as a stay, argument on which has not yet been heard. AT Swanstrom Reports in Favor of a Structure That Will Cost $160,000. TRAFFIC NOW DEMANDS IT.

The Present Bridge at Hamilton Avenue Is Worn Out and Is Not High Enough. Borough President jSwanstrom has reported to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment" in favor, of a new and modern bridge at Hamilton1 over the Gowanus Canal. The estimated cose is $160,000. On June 6, 1902, a communication to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment from Audley Clarke, rep' resentlng the. committee on piers and bridges of the South Brooklyn "Board of "Trade, calling for this bridge over the canal, was referred to Swanstrom.

His reply is as follows: July 30, 1902. Hon. Seth Low. Chairman Board of Estimate and Apportionment. New Ynrlr Pltir Dear sir bee leni o.

tn rnnrt a resolution adopted by the Board of Estimate and wj'. at meeting held June 6, 1902. that I carefully Investigated the merits of the request made by Mr. Audley Clarke, repre feting the committee on piers and bridges of the South Brooklyn Board of Trade, for an appropriation of $160,000 for the construction of a new bridge over the Gowanus Canal at Hamilton avenue. In this borough.

Tills Projected DUblln trnTirmflmpnt tll opinion, increase the value of property for business and residential purposes of the Eighth, Twelfth and. Twenty second wards. The present bridge ai Hamllton avenue Is not only dilapidated is so low that only vessels of a very small size can pass. There Is a water front on the canal of about two miles. which has decreased in value because the canal is not spanned by modern bridges.

The territory Is thickly populated and the volume of traffic In the neighborhood Is very great Business In districts on both sides of the present Hamilton avenue bridge Is seriouslv Interfered With On aeCOUnt Of thft nrnnninrr draw so frequently and the Blowness of Its operation. A new modern bridge is, in my opinion, absolutely necessary. The estimated cost is $160,000. This, however, Includes not merely the construction Of new bridge hilt nlnn 4ho ovnonoa to the necessary change of grade and of repavlng. I reSpeCtfullV.

thGrpfnrA. rannrt ha, quest of the South Brooklyn Board of Trade should be granted. Yours very truly, J. JiUWAHU SWANSTROM, President, Borough of Brooklyn. Mr.

Clarke in his application to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, stated that the present bridge at Hamilton avenue is worn put and a new one is needed, which should be both higher above water and allow vessels of greater beam to nass throush. The committee which ho renresentoil he lleved that a tunnel under the canal at this place Is the only final solution of this question, but as this seemed a matter of the distant future, they would like a new bridee as soon as possible. The Department of Bridges, Mr. Clarke said, had already pre pared plans and estimated the cost at $160, uuo. a lavoraDie response from the Board of Estimate and Apportionment would, to a most marked degree, increase the value of property, both for business and residences, in the Eighth, Twelfth and Twenty second wards, where there is a front along the canal of over two miles, in the heart of a populous territory, which is to day worth less than it was thirty years ago." This water front is now used for coal, lumber and brick yards and there are a number ol un used docks.

The value of property is $100 a front foot, largely due to the old fashioned bridges with central piers in the canal, lim iting the use of the waterway to vessels of so leet beam. Outside of the canal, unimproved water fronts are being rapidly bought up at. $1,000 per front foot. Just inside the Hamilton avenue bridge a large and thoroughly Improved dock, 200 feet, can be bought tor wnue lust outside, for a dock about 400 feet long, $250,000 has' been refused. The Board of Trade estimates that the building of a better bridge, would add millions to assessed values, as with the present railroad rate for delivering goods It is ab solutely impossible for manufacturers along tne canai to compete witn those fronting on the open water.

The railroads are willing to extend lighterage to the canal if the central pier is taken out, leaving room for their large boats to enter, as at present their cargoes hove to be rellghtered at great expense. A bridge Is wanted that will be sufficiently elevated to allow 'all vessels, except those with masts, to pass without opening. This will require a change of street grade for 309 on either side of the canal. At present every canalboat passing means the opening of the bridge, whereas, if the struc ture proposed was built with a 50 feet width of draw, 20 feet above mean high tide. k90 per cent, of all vessels could use the waterway without disturbing traffic over the bridge.

The Board of Trade refuses to have the canal filled up, as it says it is absolutely needed by the business community of Brooklyn. But it maintains that something must be done to Bolve the present problem of congestion. Harlem River is quoted as an example of might be done with Gowanus Canal. Commissioner of Public Works William C. Redfleld reported in favor of the proposition to the President of the Borough, but believes the construction of this bridge should be.

the beginning of a comprehensive scheme, involving not alone the construction of two or three bridges, but making a navigable waterway, with sufficient' depth of water for the larger vessels that "would then use it. President Swanstrom, after visiting the ground and going over It carefully, Is how In favor of the proposition. AT THE EAGLE PABIS BUREAU. Eagle Bureau, 53 Rue Cambon.

"Then you do not Intend to solicit such complaints?" "No. Why should "How, then, do you expect to get at the iacts "Never you mind: leave that to me?" Inspector Adam A. Cross.who took charge of tile police on the scene of disorder, as soon as word reached police headquarters that a riot was in in discussing the alleged brutality of policemen in handling the crowds, said: "I don't know what happened before I reached the scene, but I do know that after I got there the behavior of the police was extremely mtld.

As' Boon as I arrived 1 Issued an order that were not to be used, except in cases of extreme necessity, and they were not used. A strange thing connected with the riots, in my opinion, is that although the square in front of Hoe's factory is remarkably free from stones, or other missiles, after the riot was over my men picked up a soap box full of rocks and other things. On one of the floors of Hoe's factory was found a glazier's hammer, which had been thrown from the street through a window, and which narrowly escaped hitting the head of a foreman. It seems to me to be the fact that the Jews went there with the idea of bombarding the factory." HOE'S FACTORY UNDER GUARD. Excitement Unabated Among East Side Hebrews Mass Meetings to Be Held.

Excitement among the Hebrews of the East Side over the treatment received by the mourners in the funeral procession in honor of Chief Rabbi Joseph yesterday is still at fever heat. In. all the streets in the neighborhood of the R. Hoe Printing Press Company in Grand street, Manhattan, groups of angry Hebrews have been forming and reforming all morning to discuss the indignities they suffered yesterday. The great building of the Hoe Company is being guarded by a detail of ten patrolmen, one from each of ten different precincts, the detail being under the com mand of Roundsman Robinson of the Thir teenth Precinct.

So far no acts of violence have occurred. Steps are being taken by the leaders among the indignant people to prevent any rioting in the future and obtain redress for the wrongs which they have already suffered, as well as certainty of protection in the future. Dr. Halpren of 240 East Broadway, who has called a mass meeting of protest against the actions of the nolice, to be held at 4 o'clock this afternoon, in the Educational Alliance Building. East Broadway and Jeffer son street, in speaking of the meeting said: 'It is our intention to bring together this afternoon only the coolest and most calm minded among our people.

The purpose is to effect a permanent organization, composed not only of orthodox Jews, but of all of the Hebrew faith. The object of the organization will be to take what means $may be necessary to protect our citizens of the Hebrew faith from persecution at the bands of the police, or from any other persecution directed at us from any source. The Jews of the East Side have been repeatedly, almost constantly harassed by the employes of the R. Hoe Company for a very long time. Numerous protests and complaints have been lodged with the manager of the company and with Mr.

Hoe himself, but the insults and indignities continued. "Yesterday the thing was carried beyond the point of endurance. When the guneral procession had advanced far enough to bring the hearse containing the body of Rabbi Joseph in front of the Hoe Company's building, suddenly water and stones were thrown out upon the heads of the passersby. Some of the more excitable among the mourners threw the stones back. When the police came, instead of protecting the mourners and followers, of the hearse, they proceeded at once to break up the procession.

They asked no questions and made efforts learn something of the facts in tne case. The duty of the police at such a time and under such circumstances was to protect both the persons and the deep 'religious feeling of those in the procession." There will be a meeting of the Hebrew tradesmen and of the Hebrew congregations throughout the East Side this afternoon and to night. But those meetingB will be independent of the one called by Dr. Halpren. Protests are to be carried to the Mayor and to Commissioner Partridge from all the meetings.

SCENES AT THE BURIAL. A Multitude of Hebrews Mourned for Hours in the Union Field Cemetery. During the funeral procession through, the Eastern District and Ridgewood to Union Field Cemetery, adjoining Cypress Hills Cemetery, a great crowd was encountered, at which the mourners, after their conflict in Manhattan and shortly after, leaving the Grand Street ferryboat, glared with suspicious gaze. They were ready to atack any person or group who was sacrilegious enough to jeer or throw missiles at them. The immense crowd following the funeral cortege, it is maintained, should have been prevented ty tne authorities on the ground that it was a procession and that a permit should have been demanded by those in charge of the fuDeral arrangements.

On the other hand, it is claimed by those In charge that they had not the slightest Idea that there would be such a gathering follow the dead rabbi to his last resting place. The reason for this, as further explained, was that the multitude maintained that their grief was too great to follow in carriages and that' they considered that following on foot wasa true expression of the sorrow they ielt. A still greater crowd of the faithful was in waiting at the cemetery for the arrival of the procession. They had been conveyed there from the early nours in the morning by the various surface lines, which were compelled to treble their accommodations. The vast crowd stood waiting for hours witti bowed heads and lips moving in, prayer about the place where the rabbi was to be buried.

It was in the neighborhood of 4 o'clock when the cortege, with its black robed multitude, arrived and passed slowly Into the cemetery. Their arrival was again the scene of that frantic endeavor on the part of every one to get near the vehicle and press their fingers to the woodwork of that which seemed so holy. It was a miracle that In the swaying and crowding multitude many were not trampieu unaer toot in their anx iety to get even a look at the hearse. So solidly was the crowd pressed' about the vehicle that at times the driver was compelled to put the whip to the horses in order to force their way to the place where the open grave was ready. This had the effect of scattering somewhat the mass of humanity.

During the process of preparing the grave a number of rabbis from Manhattan poured out their tearful lamentations and eulogies to groups gathered about the grounds. The services at the grave side were also conducted by Rabbi Philip Klein of the Hungarian and Galiclan Synagogue, he having conducted services at the house of the deceased. He was assisted by a number of chanters of Manhattan and other cities. The pathetic melody of their chantsmoved everybody to tearful lamentations. The services were conducted for several hours and even after the grave had been filled many reverently passed the newly made mound and wept bitterly.

Throughout the services family of the dead rabbi, including the widow, the son Raphael, two daughters, Mrs. S. R. Schultz and Mrs. Nathan Brody, and a brother, Louis Joseph, stood about the rude pine box Into which the coffin was afterward placed and beat their breasts during their lamentations.

When the coffin was ready to be lowered into the grave the widow and daughters made a frantic demand to take one more' look at the face of their beloved, but, as this is considered almost a sacrilege In the orthodox faith, they were denied. The interment was in the ground owned by the Congregation Beth Hamedrash Haga del, which won the honor of burying the rabbi. I LOST AND FOUND. LOST ON WEDNESDAY EVENING.

August 1: MYSTERY IN SKIRTS PUZZLES IE. FURL Well Dressed Young Woman, Perhaps Victim of Aphasia, Tells Nothing. TRIED IN MANY LANGUAGES; Polyglot Interpreters Put on Their Het tle in Vain Remanded to Matron's Custody. A myterious young, woman excited the attention of judge, officers, clerks and spectators of the Myrtle avenue court this morning, and the question was frequently asked, "Who is she and where dl she come from?" She occupied a seat at a tabie inside the rail. At first it was supposed that she was deaf and dumb, and Clerk McFeeters in his ardent desire 'to assist' in the diffusion of useful knowledge, got the Webster Unabridged Dictionary and pointing out the mute language to the young girl, asked her by gestures to explain matters.

It was no use, however, for the mysterious one only shook her head and then relapsed Into a condition that seemed destined to baffle all inquirers. Next, Special Agent Folk of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, who is a linguist, exercised his charms as an in terpreter of ideas and words, but persistent as he was, he had to own that he was vanquished. Then the German interpreter of the court, Herr Jacob Michaelis, threw, as it were, both French and German bouquets at the. strange young woman, but all to no purpose. She scrawled a line on a sheet of paper that even the most expert philologists of the court could not decipher.

In the meantime. Miss Anna I. Connelly, the Prison Angel, Counselor Husted and Slgnor Conti, the Italian interpreter, were interested in the subject of trying to fathom this unexpected Sphinx. Messages in French, Italian and English were carried to. her every few minutes, but to no avail.

Officer Ryan of the Classon avenue station explained that the young woman walked Into that station house about 9 o'clock last night and that she taxed the entire resources of Captain Baldwin's home guard in trying to find out what was the matter. All that they could make out was that she lived in some called a place, but she could not tell the number. Finally the sergeant at the desk sent an officer with the strange young woman to the Flushing avenue station, where there is a matron and where she remained for the night. The young woman is rather good looking and appears to "be of French extraction. She has black hair and brown eyes and is a decided brunette.

She wore a green and white plaid suit trimmed with narrow lace. A yoke and sleeves of lace contributed a light and airy 'effect which seemed to enroll her In the ranks of summer girls. She wore a gold locket and chain, a tiny gold pin with turquoise, a gold chain from which a number of keys dangled, and a green ribbon sash. Carelessly thrown around her was a white woolen shawl and she used a small Japanese fan with all of the grace of a Southern maid. A wonderful summer hat, with green and white wings, completed her costume.

The unknown is about 26 years old, of medium height and light In weight. She seemed to be tunaware that she was attracting attention, but bore the ordeal well. When her case was called by Magistrate Furlong special efforts were made to find out where she lived. She appeared to be suffering from aphasia, but managed after persistent questioning, both on the part of Magistrate Furlong and others Interested in the case, to make out that her name was Florence Armour and that she lived near the Park. The name of Armour was not much more than recorded before she attempted to give another name.

She said she was married and the mother of five children, but this is thought to be untrue. Magistrate Furlong finally decided to hold the young woman on a charge of vagrancy, and remanded her to the care of Miss Con nelly, who said that she would take her to the Ozanam Home, 48 Concord street. The magistrate then adjourned the case until Tuesday next, but leaving the question of "Who is she? unanswerea. When questioned at the Ozanam House by the matron, the mysterious young woman Intimated by means of the gesture language, that she had come In a boat from Cuba and that when the boat landed she had her money and personal effects taken away from her. Then she was put ashore.

When asked as to who gave her a bracelet, which she wore, she answered that It was her brother and showed much delight when the word Cuba was mentioned. FIRES IN BROOKLYN AND QUEENS.
