The railroad compnnv retaliated, it is declared, by Riving the le ach a poor railroad service last it was a year ago last summer, it is learned, that the railroad company first made overtures to the beach company, offering about 5000,000 for the beach, the Casino Theater, the Casino pier, the Trocadero, the Al am bra dancing hall and the right, to sublet all privileges.

The beach company, it was currently rumored, held out for and then all negotiations fell Hat. L.a5t winter or last spring the two companies couldn't agree, so no deal was made, and. Percy G. Williams, as manager of the beach company, ran the place as heretofore. He produced at the Casino Theater a musical farce.

"The Pan American Girl," which was the first show to run for over one hundred nights in the Borough Brooklyn. But the carl service to the beach was bad and people along both the Flatbush and. Nostrand avenue linos, the only two lines running to the beach, were compelled to wait many minutes to get through cars to the bay resort. Returning the service was not much better, and, while none of the members of the beach company or any of the employes openly charged the railroad company with trying ro kill the business of Bergen Beach, still such was the general rumor and the general comment of people who claimed to know where of they spoke. Last winter Bergen Beach was ripped from 1 one end to the other by heavy waves, the like of which were unknown in Jamaica Bay.

and the damage done to the resort estimated I at $100,000. Hardly any work has been done toward repairing that damage. Within a i week a fence has been erected around the loop of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company and John J. Malonev. the superintendent of And for Laddies stimxilant, this A.

HART A FRANK 3 S. William BOY SHOT A DRIVER. Was Playing With a Loaded Bevolver and Chums Dared Him to Fire It. An incident that might have proven fatal happened on Atlantic avenue late yesterday afternoon, when several boys, averaging about 14 years of age, were looking for fun and excitement. One of the boys had in his possession a revolver which was loaded, and was displaying it to his admiring chums.

He was dared to shoot it, and. boylike, raised the weapon. Just then a wagon of a Fulton street dry goods store passed around the corner of Nevins street, and the boy aimed apparently to shoot through the The bullet just grazed the arm of the driver. The latter gave chase to the boy and caught him. and was reprimanding him in a feeling way, when a policeman appeared on the scene.

Passengers un the beach would in all probability be closed thl, fcrrvboats questioned each other, but this summer. The matter he said is still under consideration and a definite decision will he arrived at in a few days. Percy Williams employs many people at his too houses of amusement, the Orpheum and the Gotham, all of whom have hitherto found employment during the summer at the beach. The closing down of that place of amusement means an idle three months for nearly all of them, something that has not happened since they entered Mr. Williams' employ.

During the past year the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company has buAlt a new brick car barn at Avenue and East Forty eighth street, less than a mile from the beach, and it was generally reported that they chose a place so far from the city for its location because of the heavy travel to Bergen Beach. The company expects to take possession ot the new barns on the first of the coming month and it has been unofficially announced that "Buffalo" cars will be operated between the beach and the barns, the through cars running only to East Forty eighth street. Cars will still run to Vanderveer Park as formerly and the location of the old depot, at Vernon avenue will become bur. a transfer point for the Avenue ears. Five lines of NO.

YOUNG WILL SUSTAINED. Daughter Was Disinherited Because Her Father Had Been Offended at Her Marriage With Higgins. Surrogate Church to day dismissed Mrs. Augusta M. Higgins' contest of the will of her father, the late Gilbert G.

Young, holding that no undue influence had been used to prevent the daughter getting a share of the estate. Among those who testified this morning was General E. L. Molineux, the father of Roland Molineux. General Molineux said that he had known the testator twelve years, and that he was strong minded, of intellectual characteristics and of good memory.

Other witnesses were President Fairchild of the Kings County Trust Company, Fire Marshal AJonzo Bryaier, George I). Tucker of 4S3 Putnam avenue, George W. Walters ot 108 Putnam avenue. Thomas J. Washington and Lawyer Herbert.

Ogden, the cousel for the executrix, Mrs. Young. Lawyer Ogden said that the testator called at his" office in the fall of lSI'S and said: "I want Gussie (the testator's wife) to get all I have and she will know what to do." Mr. Walters testified that the testator had on one occasion said that he didn't want, his daughter to get a dollar of his money because of her last marriage. When the testimony of Mrs.

Elizabeth Chailmer of 21A Woodbine street, the sister of Mrs. Young and aunt of the contestant, was offered the hearing became quite dramatic. Lawyer Heyman asked Mrs. Chailmer whether she knew a Mr. Murphy and in a second question coupled Mrs.

Young's name with this mysterious Murphy in a way that made Mrs. Chailmer exclaim, "That's an infamous lie." Mrs. Chailmer testified that her sister loved her daughter, the contestant, and often pleaded for her with the testator but that the testator would not forgive her for having married Higgins. WOMEN'S AUXILIARY. Interesting Meeting at Bethel African M.

E. Church. The Women's Auxiliary, of the Interdenominational Ministers' Union, of which Mrs. A. J.

Henry is president, held an interesting meeting at the Bethel African M. E. Church, on Schenectady avenue and Dean street, on yesterday afternoon. An excellent feature of the programme was a very Instructive paper which was read by Mrs. M.

C. Lawton. An announcement was made of the mass meeting which is to be held at the Fleet Street African M. E. Zlon Church, of which Dr.

F. M. Jacobs is pastor, on the evening of April 3. SAYS STEIMLE STABBED HIM.

Following is the official announcement of the time and durntion of high water at New York and Sandy Hook for to morrow, March 19: Rraoklvn's new S500.0GO theater will not be built at Lawrence and Fulton streets, but on another site on Fulton street, near Hoyt street. Negotiations are now progressing for the acquirement of one more parcel of land, which, with that already bought, will be sufficient for the plans of the theater builders. Its exact location cannot be given as the publication might interfere with the negotiations. Instead of a theater of only CO feet frontage on Fulton street, it will be an imposing structure of 100 feet frontage and will run back 150 feet.

The seating capacity will be not less than 2,000, possibly mere, and the house will be much larger than has been supposed from misleading statements that have been published. It will put on attractions that are too large for the majority Jf Manhattan theaters. It was said yesterday that if T. F. Roch ford could secure a lease on the Montauk he would not build the new house, but he says the theater will be built even if he does get the Montauk, and he expects to make the successful bid.

"I shall certainly bid for the Montauk," said Mr. Rcchford to day, "and I expect to get it, but that will in nowise interfere with my plans for a new theater. The new house will be built anyway. "If I get the Montauk, I shall conduct it as it is now being run and will run it in connection with, the theatrical syndicate, but the new theater will be entirely independent of the syndicate. There is a sufficient number of fine attractions outside of the syndicate to keep the house open every night.

"One imoortant feature of the new house will be the restaurant. That will be run by a New York man and will be made equal to anv in the city. When it is opened Brooklyn will have one high class restaurant. are oyster houses now, but our restaurant will fill the long felt want. We will spend tor tile tneaiei site and $300,000 for the building, wmcn win be the equal of any in New ork City, ine stage will be large enough to put on any attraction.

Tlavs like 'Ben Hur' and the 'Beautv and the Beast' that are too large for ordinarv houses can be staged easily. "I believe Brooklyn will support a larg i high class theater in addition to the houses now running. We will have a scale of prices ranging down from $1.50. Brooklyn hasn't Ana tine nonulation of Manhattan and will not pay for the same shows that are given in Manhattan at that price. "We will break ground about May 1, hut cannot possiblv finish in time for next sen son We will not open before October, 1M03.

The Montauk lease will not expire until lfi04 ij and you see our new house wiil be running before we could get the Montauk." COMING EVENTS.

Caisson Attracted a Great Deal of Attention and Many Were Mystified by the Eigr Box. When the giant caisson, looking like a lloating base ball ground, was towed down tl East rtiver and anchored in place at the foot of Washington street. Brooklyn, at o'clock last night, it marked the beginning of actual work on the new bridge, which will probably be known as the Navy Yard bridge. The voyage of the big caisson, the second largest in the world, from the yard at One Hundred and Fifty first street, was an unusual feat of seamanship, but it was accomplished wtinout aceiueut ami iu ic few were able to give any explanation. Those who' were near enough read in large black letters on either side the three word explanation: "This is it." They returned to their homes deeply grateful.

F. M. Sylvester, the assistant engineer in charge of the construction of the new bridge, was on hand early this morning to superintend the handling of the caisson and to watch the preparation of the concrete with which it will he filled. He invited an Eagle reporter to accompany him on a tour of examination, prefacing the invitation with the question, "Are you a good The way to the top of the caisson, which stands 35 feet above the top of the water, was over a narrow plank 20 feet long, where a misstep or stumble meant an early spring bath, to a hastily constructed ladder, which hung dangling at the corner of the caisson. Getting to the lop was a good deal like climbing a rope, but Engineer Sylvester ac complished the trip in safety and the re porter followed.

sis fcet below the flooring, which you sec This leaves a hollow space beneath the en tire caisson which is known as the working room. This working room is no more nor less than an enlarged diving bell. As the structure is slowly sunk into the water the hvdrostatic pressure from the outside prevents the. water from coming up into this room and it is there that the men will carry on the work of digging out die bottom of the river down to the bed rock." "How will you sink the caisson to the bottom?" he was asked. "That is effected by the law of said Mr.

Sylvester. "'e pile the concrete into the different compartments oE the caisson. The roof of the working room acts as a flooring for the concrete. When the caisson is submerged to the water level we begin to build a cofferdam, which simply means that we build up the walls of the caisson to keep the water from running in over the top. "At the place where the caisson will he placed die river is slightly more than forty feet deep at mean high water.

The bed rock is r. i feet under the river bed. The caisson y. ill he feet deep. It will then be necessary to build a cofferdam something more than forty feet high above the caisson.

When the caisson Is in place we don't give a about the cofferdam and we take it away. Wo will then build a pier of solid granite upon the sunken caisson up 10 eight or ten feet above the water and on this Rranite pier wil be constructed the Iron pier of the bridge. "The concrete which we will use will be made of broken stone, sand and Portland cement. It will form a solid block ns durable as granite. After it is once in place It doesn't matter whether the wooden framework decays or not.

As a matter of fact the caisson is built of Southern pine, which is very resinous and will resist the action of the water for hundreds of years. "As soon as the caisson is sunk to the river bed we will have two hundred laborers at work in the working chamber all Ihe time. They will get up and down through the elevator shaft which Is supplied with valves at the bottom to prevent the release of the air pressure. They will work in an atmosphere nf compressed air. Fresh air will be constantly pumped down.

At first it is dillicult to work In such an atmosphere, hut. they become accustomed to it and. so far as I know, it is atlended with no harmful results. The working chamber will probably lie lighted by electricity. "IVe expect to begin It lill in with concrete on Thursday of this week and we shall have the caisson in position by August 1 if everything goes well." A duplicate caisson to the one at the foot of Washington street will be placed at the foot of Pike street on the Manhattan side of the.

East River. The contract for the second caisson has not yet been let. KxiM'rt rill'lierH for llnllNt1ioll and works of art. The Kngle Warehouse i Storage JS Fulton Uor. of Brooklyn.

Adv. "WASHINGTON STREET. CHARGES IN PORSGH CASE Customs Examiner Charged With Conspiracy to Undervalue Perfume Product Invoices. ARRAIGNED IN BROOKLYN COURT American Manufacturers Mystified hy the Ahility of the Porsch Firm to Undersell Them. I.

M. Raynor of Greenpoint. ex special examiner of the appraiser's office, was arrested last evening on a warrant charging him with conspiring with the Porsch Chemical Company of 19 Liberty street, Manhattan, to defraud the government of customs duties, by means of fraudulent invoices of imported chemicals. Dr. Ottokar Porsch.

president of the Chemical Company, and Joseph S. Porsch, the secretary and treasurer, were arrested yesterday on the same charge. Raynor, who is well to do and is well known at New Brighton and in Greenpoint, was arreste'd by United States Deputy Mar shall William H. Cauldwell. He made no op position and was anxious to come to the federal courts to have the matter cleared up.

He was arraigned before United States Commissioner Benedict at the Post Office Building this morning and was held in $3,000, bail for an examination. The complaint against Dr. Porsch, his son and Raynor was sworn out yesterday by Special Treasury Agent Hoskins. It states that the Porches conspired last June with Raynor, who was at that time examiner in the appraiser's office, to under value the goods which were imported by the company. The special offense alleged is that a consignment oE valuable oils, worth at least $8,000, was invoiced by Raynor, and the tax fixed at $125, instead of at $3,000.

which it should have been. Raynor called the goods a mixture of a composition of heliotropinc and grease, the latter of which is free from tax. It is alleged that this process was carried on to such an extent that the Porsch Company were able to sell the perfume products at a much lower figure than other manufacturers in this could. It. was this fact which first aroused the suspicions of some of the American manufacturers who inspected the goods and came to the conclusion that there must be something irregular about the process or the producers could not turn out as fine a quality at so low a rate.

This led to a complaint on the part of some of the dealers in perfumes which started the investigation. The arrests made are the result. Others are said to be implicated in the case, and it is expected that more arrests will follow. It is alleged that Raynor has quite extensively practiced the scheme and that he has urged other firms to profit by it. Raynor finally denied his connection with any illicit practices this morning.

"I am as much surprised as any man in this city would be to have the charge thrown at him." he said. "I am not going to talk about the ease at the present time. My attorneys will do that." Raynor will he held for examination in the courts of this district. DO NOT WANT THIRTY DAYS. Navy Yard Employes Claim That Length of Vacation Might Cost Them Their Jobs.

Several of the prominent members of the Laborers' Association of the Xavy Yard are agitating the question of holding a mass meeting to protest against the thirty days' leave bill which is pending in Congress, There is some hesitancy about calling the meeting as it is believed that such an action would be a violation of the recent order issued by President Roosevelt that govem ment employes shall not attempt in any way to influence legislation. The proposed ing has no connection with the petition lie ing circulated at the Navy Yard, addressed to the Secretary of the Navy, requesting that' the thirty day leave bill be given official dis 1 approval. The present, status of affairs presents the anomalous condition of employes opposing a bill purporting, without solicitation, to give tnem tnirty nays leave of absence from the Navy Yard with full pay and not daring to show their opposition because of a ruling of the President. The point of the laborers, is that if they are granted the thirty tlavs" vacation, the cost of work will be forced in such a high figure that the bulk or it will go to outside contractors and they will in (he end be permanently cut of emplov ment. SAYS SHE STOLE HIS STUD.

Evelyn Johnson, who is 20 years old. was. arrested at her residence. 203 Fulton at 7 o'clock this morning, charged with having stolen a diamond stud, worth about and $6 in money from James F. Moloney of Hockvllle Center while they were In a room In the St.

Henry Hotel, at Henry and Mid dagh streets, early this morning. Evelyn said ihnt when she met Moloney late last night he was so tipsy that he scarcely knew what he was doing. She accompanied him to the hotel. She admitted that she had the six dollars, which she declared the man had given her in an outburst of generosity. She went to jail pending examination on Thursday next.
