Frank Bail-y', Letter to Kapid Transit Commission President Anent the Fulton Street Tunnel. While It is proposed in the construction of the Pultoo street tunnel to adopt the lame general scheme of orking as is now being done on loner Droadway, Manhattan, ttn-re Is some protest against th? use of the sMcwalks on Fulton street for the sinking of shafts from which! the digging is to be dine. Frank Bailey, vice president of the Title Guarantee and Trust Company, has writ tea a letter to Alexander E. Orr, president of the Rapid Transit Commission, urging a clunge in the plans, and If necessary the purchase of property required for tunneling stations. Mr.

Bailey's letter is as follows: Mr. Alexander E. Orr, President Rapid Transit Commission, 320 Broadway, New York lear Sir The nlans for the ta. tions on Fulton street Brooklyn, provide, according to tho best advices we have been able to obtain from the engineers nf viir commission, that the kiosks for the purposes 01 igress De placed on the sidewalk o. that 1 of rl'TVT Tel two kiosks are iiicnes in width each, two feet from the curb.

The width of ihe sidewalk on Fulton street at that point Is eighteen feet ten Inches, so thut one-third of the width of the present Inadequate sidewalk will be occupied by kiosks, one east and one west of I oyt street. On any busy day it is not possible now for the sidewalk traffic to move with freedom on this street and it of course Is impracticable to widen the sidewalk in any way. Can it be possible that vour com- cnaeavortnK to provide rapid transit for certain quarters of this city will permit the narrowing of tho sidewalks of this great thoroughfare as these plans at present propose? As a member of the commission appointed by his honor. Mayor McCIellan, I have beeu endeavoring to study Ihe general plan of the city with a view to keeping open and enlarging tbe main arteries of the cltv, which In almost every case are entirely Inadequate and were originally planned too small. It is with peculiar regret, therefore, that I have discovered that the plans of your engineers provide for the arbitrary narrowing of Fulton street in the way above set forth, and I therefore request your hoard to change this arrangement.

If It shall be necessary to buy property in order that proper stations can be provided, then that course should be pursued by you or the stations could be erected close to the corners as is being done ln New York on Broadway I send herewith a picture of Fulton street at the exact place where one of these stations is to be erected, taken on Saturday afternoon. October 1, tho street at that time being temporarily narrowed by the erection of a bridge in front of a building now being reconstructed, which bridge Is three feet narrower than the remaln'ng sidewalk womu be after the erection of the klosTii.

Taken by surprise, the boy confessed that he had secreted some money' that a boy in the school had given him ln a brick yard near by. He piloted the detectives to a brick yard, and, walking to a pile of bricks, stooped down and, raising one of them.

Murano was arraigned In the Children's Court to-day on the charge of grand larceny and in default ot $1,000 bail was committed to the care of the Cnildren's Society.

"Your honor," said Miss Powers, "can you not hold the boy on the complaint made by his father yesterday and permit me to withdraw tho charge against lilm. as so grave a charge as grand Inrceny will tend to degrade the little boy?" "You must not consider the effect of the charge on the boy." replied the Judge, "the law hns beeu outraged and the crime de mands severe punishment One dollar, less cents was found on the boy's person when he was arrested. He said that he had spent tho quarter (or candy and soft drinks. WOHKMEN HURT. Scaffolding Snapped and Two Men Fell Twenty-five Feet.

A daring theft was perpetrated, this morning, ln tho heart of the Eastern District. Police Captain Samuel Hardy, who lives at 146 Hooper street, was taken ill and sent for Dr. J. T. Gallagher, of 204 Bedford avenue.

The physician responded to the call In his new 700 rig, which ho left ln front of Captain Hardy's house. He was gone only a few minutes, at. when he came out, the rig had disappepnred. Hastening to the Clymer street station, he reported the loss to the police. The police acted promptly nud tiie horse nud buggy wero in their handi within a few hours.

The horse wns recognized by Offlcei Median, of the Bedford avenue station, whs noticed a small boy leading tbe animal. When the lad saw the policeman he let go of the bridle and sprinted up Broadway with the officer close at his heels. Both were good runners, but the bluecoat had the longer stride, and the hand of the law was soon on the young fellow's shoulder. The boy waB locked up and later arraigned li the Lee avenue court, when he gave tin name of John Schmidt. No amount 01 coaxing, pleading or threatening would induce him to reveal any information concerning himself, his associates or his destP nation when he appeared with the horse He was held ln default of bail for furthel examination.

THE PLACE A HISTORIC ONE. and Mrs. Whit a Former Golf Champion. (Special to the Eagle.) Glen Cove. L.

October 4 Charles A. 1 i-- oi a century, the country place of tho JU Columbia Heights, a brother of Alexander M. White. and Mrs. Francis Minot (Miss Margaret White), nephew of Alfred T.

White grandson of the late A. M. White, a Heights households of the frst prominence, married Miss Ruth t'idorlilll, Charles A. Prna's granddaughter. Mr Dana, widow ot the editor, has now been dead shout cisht months.

The protiirijr lias Just beer dlvlt'cd and the Whites 'ako the quaint and celebrated mansion of Meson's. It cannot be learned whether young Mrs. White Is the new owner of the property or whether actual possession of it Is vested ln her mother. Mrs. I'nderhill.

who has been for many years a widow. What is certain, however, is that the Whites are to make this their resideuce and that young Mrs. White will be Dosorls' new mistress. The old home is so celebrated, rivaling ln beauty and Interest that of any other country place nround New York, that Its occupancy by one of the leading younger men of the Heights set becomes ot decided Importance to the Glen Cove colony. Since his graduation from college five or eIx years ago, Harold White has been ono of the Heights chief personalities.

He is a partner of his brother In the banking firm of Moffatt White, at 2 Nassau street. His marriage to Miss Ruth Underhill last winter came as a surprise. It took place down in Florida, where Miss Underbill and her mother had been spending the cold months, and society ln general had no suspicion ot the romance until word came of the wedding. The marriage had especial Interest because of the tact that Miss had made a very noted young woman of herself. She became woman's golf champion of America and held the title successfully over a season or two.

It was her prowess on the golf links that did much to build the Nassau Country Club into tamo and to make it its present great social center. Beside her golt- iug prominence, she has figured exteusively in New York society, as all the Danas have. One of her aunts was Mrs. William Draper, wife of the late Dr. William R.

Draper. Her uncle, Paul Dana, Charles A. Dana's only son, married Miss Mary Butler Duncan, daughter ot William Butler Dun JltSmtrf Club Dosorls, Overlook and Matlnecock. The big Pratt estate Is in Dosorls. The road through their property and to the Dana place has been known from time immemorial as Dosorls lane.

The Island of the Dana property Ib known as Dana's Island, or East Island. Another Island immediately adjoining it is West Island, owned by Leonard Jacob of Manhattan. For several years Mr. Jacob has been fighting the town of OyBter Bay on a question of beach rights, a litigation that has grown to be very celebrated. Mr.

and Mrs. Paul Dana also have a houso on Dana's Island. This, It Is understood, has not been affected by the division of the property. Whether all the famous collection of trees, by far tho greatest ever gathered toge(her In America, has passed lo the Harold Whites is not stated, but it probably will go with the old house. JAMES E.

Benedict, public printer under Cleveland and now president of the Ulster County Fair, who lives In Ellenville, ister County; ex-l'nlted States Senator Edward Murphy, of Troy, ex-Uovernor Campbell, of Ohio, aud ex-t'nited Stales Treasurer Morgan, who held that position under the Cleveland administration. But there were more Tammany men. Ex-Sheriff James O'Brien folliwed the others closely, and came down smiling and brushing his silk hat.

Mr. O'Brien was ou tho outs with Tammany for some time, but was taken back on Murphy's attaining the leadership, Ex-Mayor Kobert Van Wyck called with one of his commissioners a little before noon and stayed for some time. Mr. Van Wyck has been out of politics since the reform movement Bwept Tammany out of poli tics aud burled him under thousands of voles as a candidate for Justice of the Supreme Court in 1 901. He has recently returned from Europe where he had a very pleasant visit with Richard Croker, and brought greetings from Tammany's old boss.

Some thought he brought a message for Judge Parker, which he delivered to-day. Conciliation is the watchword since Judge Purker took hold of his own campaign to straighten out the tangle into which some of his extra zealous friends had thrown it. Tammany proposes to make Herrlek's majority a record breaker. Mr. Murphy, who sometimes thinks he is state leader, predicted yesterday a majority of 75,000 for Herrick in the state.

These visitors kept Judge Tarker so busy that he was unable to have his morning chat with the reporters. These talks havo been very pleasant, although the Judge Is not accustomed to make announcements of importance in newspaper Interviews. A reporter for a morning paper yesterday broke through the rule and demanded to know if Judge Parker would enforce the provisions of the Constitution with refer ence to equal rights for negroes. He was referred to the judge's letter of acceptance for Information. Chairman Taggart, of the Democratic national committee, announced at the headquarters this morning the itinerary of William Jennings Bryan, ln hla spellbinding" tour, for Judge Parker and the Democratic party.

Mr. Bryan will open his speech making in Missouri on October fl. He will also speak on the 10th and 11th ln that state. From the 12th to the Mth of October he will speak in Indiana, going from there to West Virginia, where be will speak on tho list and 22d. After that date Mr.

Bryan will stump the far West. An announcement was also made that M. E. Ingalls will speak at Indianapolis next Saturday. J.

E. Ryan, national committeeman from Wisconsin, was a visitor ut headquarters this morning, and talked over the situation ln his state. He said that If the decision of the courts should favor the Spooner crowd, or "stalwarts, against the La Folletta people, It will mean the carrying of that state for Judge Parker.

waiting to-day as they waited yesterday. for the paymaster. "Dcy can ea what dey please, an' do what dey please." said John Wetzler to-day. "I wants my tools an' wants the $36 dcy owes me an' 1 won't go away until 1 gets Me, too," said Maggie, the head chambermaid. "I want mine, just as bad as the cook does and so docs Fritz, and Tony, and Sam, and all the rest of us.

We'ro going to stay here till we get it." The motley group on the veranda of the big hotel to-day was not quite so cheerful to-day as it was yesterday. There was not so much ready wit and repartee to enliven things. Sam, the bartender, still had his roll, which he offered to bet yesterday at odds of 100 to 1 that they would all have their money by 6 o'clock last night, but to-day ho was offering only 10' to 1. Albloa Allen was there dispensing the cheerful news that to-day at the very latest everybody would be paid, but somehow the rest of the help did not appear to listen to him quite so eagerly. John Wetzler, the second cook, stood by the bar munching a chicken sandwich and drinking a glass of beer.

It was evidently not the first glass he had had to-day for when he was asked bow things looked he wept copiously, the tears running down his nose and dripping into the beer. "I don't know. I don't know," he wailed. "Oh, what will my poor frau and meln four children do If I don't gets my $30 an' my tools? Oh! Oh!" "That'll be all for said Sam, the bartender, truculently. "You'll get yours.

See? And we'll all get ours. See? We'll Bet it to-day and don't make no mistake about it. They offered era all checks," added Sam, "and like a' lot of yahoos they turned 'em down. The checks was as good as gold." "Then why didn't you take the check they offered you?" asked Maggie, somewhat pertly. "If you wasn't my girl I'd hurt you for that," said Sam.

"I had my reasons. Don't you make no mistake. Listen to me, I say. Listen to me. I have my reasons.

All the forenoon the help stood about the verandah and the barroom trying to keep their spirits up by circulating the report that they were surely to get their money at 2 o'clock. There was an air of insincerity or rather of doubt about these protestation that tended to depress rather than to enliven things. Inquiry among the help revealed the fact that there wa3 between $400 and $500 due thum for the closing months' work. None of tbem appears to have any hard feelings against the proprietors but they are unanimous In their denunciation of H. Arthur Cahn, the late manager.

It was a very pleasant day at Coney. The help hope It will continue pleasant. ONLY PROTECTED A WOMAN. Grace Declares He Pushed Drunken Han, About to Strike His Wife, but Push Was Serious.

In three separate actions brought this morning before Justice Van Wart in the I Second District Municipal Court by the City of New York against Henry J. Stolting. a butcher in business at 896 Lafayette avenue, the alleged cheating of customers by retail dealers In giving light weight, wns brought to notice. Ellwood Hanson, a city inspector of weights and measures, has in the fulfillment of the duties of his office discovered that this dishonesty extends to such an extent among the retail grocer.n butchers of the borough that the Corporation A. Counsel omce na3 instituted numerous suits against the guilty persons.

In a certain store uptown a quarter-pound weight Inclosed lu a paper bag was discov- ered under the pan of the counter scale, I his, Mr. Hanson very properly confiscated and will use It as evidence when the case comes to trial. A drop scale that ho also confiscated was bo out of comparison wlih the slate's standard of weights and measures that the owner gained a pound of materUl before tho scole wauld begin to compute. Another clever device was attached, to thin scale ln the shape of an innocent looking pkee of string. The scale, which was small enough to be held ln the palm of tho hand, had evidently received hard usage, so much bo, ln fact, that tho measured face for computation had become separated, near the base, from the back covering.

The string was Ingeniously passed through the rivet holes and around the back, whllo ono end covered a portion of the face of the scale and then disappeared through the slit, which conveys the pointer, to meet with the other ond of the string that had come under the face In such a manner that the pointer would record so many pounds and no more. In the case of the city against Stolting, Justice Van Wart granted a Judgment of $25 and costs against the defendant In eneh of the three actions. Stolting wns not present to offer a disclaimer. Stolting was charged with having three scales, 1, Hi and 2 ounces ou lof balance, respectively. Counsellor William H.

Doherty represented the Corporation Counsel's office ir "rnsecutlng tne case. Ve Hnnsnn testified nn the atniul tli.i ho had asked Stolting it he could account for the poor balance but he responded that he could give no reason. GURNEY INCIDENT CLOSED.
