Mr.

Carroll's friend added that a complete reconciliation will undoubtedly result from their meeting, although he said that such a reconciliation would not be likely to affect the present status of Mr. Carroll in the Tammany organization. Mr. Carroll refused to speak of the political aspects of his trip when seen at the Savoy Hotel before embarking this morning, further than to say that he expected to see Mr. Croker.

He retired from active politics after a hot primary fight with Charles F. Murphy last falK He won the tattle in his district, but Mr. Murphy's leadership of Tammany was confirmed by a majority of the other Tammany districts and Mr. Carroll did not care to lead a minority in the organization which ho had virtually controlled during the four years preceding Mr. Croker'8 abdication.

Since his William P. Haupert, 62 years old, of 5113 Roekaway avenue, was arrested last night by Detective Tormey of the Brownsville precinct, on a serious charge. In which it Is said that more than twenty little girls will be brought forward as complainants against him. The police of the Brownsville precinct have had many complaints against the man and last night the detective found him and Rebecca Rabinowltz, 11 years old, of 128 Osborn street, in a barn at 182 Thatford avenue. It.

is charged against. Haupert that he entices the young girls Into the barn for immoral purposes by offering them money. The police say they will summon these girls as witnesses against Haupert: Rosa Llften-off, 13 years old, of Watkins avenue, near Dumont; Ada Finklesteln, 12 years old, of Osborn street, near Liberty avenue; Matilda Silverman, years old, of Roekaway avenue, near Blake; Lilly Levi, 12, of Stone avenue, near Glenmore, and Ada Shapiro, 12, of 55 Osborn street. Attorney Rapheal was retained by Haupert to defend him when he was arraigned in the Gates avenue court to-day, but when the lawyer heard of some of the details of the case he withdrew and refused to have anything more to do with the prisoner. Coward would create a disturbance.

The latter, however, did not appear to be at all con-cinied about the murder or his prospective fate and slept well all night. When awakened this morning the first thing he asked for was a "big breakfast." He ate his food with apparent relish and did not leave a crumb of it, "Ho is the coolest murderer I ever saw," said Warden Van De Carr, "and he seems to feel a sort of pride in what he has done." Spencer was later arraigned before Recorder Goff in the Court of General Sessions. Ho was taken into court from his Tombs cell between two deputy sheriffs and still retained his defiant air of yesterday. Ex-Judge Wauhope Lynn, who yesterday was assigned as counsel to defend the negro, was present in court to-day. agreements and covenants, he says, before being ocmpletely restored to her husband's affections.

The main obligations sought to be Imposed on her are that she will absolutely and for all time quit dancing, and that, In addition, she drop the society of a few young women from Bath Beach, whose characters aro irreproachable, but whose manners are considered too lively for a staid young matron. The Eagle told, yesterday almost everything that could be told about the rumpus in the Burnett household. The youthful husband quarreled with his equally juvenile spouse because, after much solicitation, she danced at the Polytechnic ball last week. Young Mr. Burnett, while nn admirer of game chickens, bucking bronchos, fighting dogs ami domesticated snakes, entertains a Btrong prejudice against dancing.

Because she broke the strict rule lie established. Mr. Burnett accompanied his wife to her aunt's house, Where she stayed for the night, instead of remaining at the Burnett home. Since then Mrs. Burnett has not seen her husband.

The ultimatum was made to her Father Chidwick was drilled In his duties at the Brooklyn Navy Yard by Father Chas. Parks, who was the first Catholic chaplain to be appointed in the navy, the appointment having been made by Treeident Cleveland In 1887. Father Chidwick was the third Catholic clergyman to receive such an appointment, and joined the Maine when she was put into commission. Father Chidwick was one of the last to leave the vicinity of the wreck, and only sought the shore when there was apparently no further possibility of his rescuing another of his much beloved "boys." In the hospitals he was tireless in comforting and helping the wounded, and in consoling and making ready for burial the gallant men whose lives were lost in the terrible calamity. The sailors lovingly called him "Father John," and there was no service they would not perform for him.

The priest was born in St. Gabriel's parish, East Thirty-seventh street, Manhattan, about thirty-seven years ago. Previous to his appointment as chaplain he was on duty Good Sense Shoe been rescinded and is now before the Corporation Counsel awaiting his action. Controller Grout said to-day that he is still an advocate of the proposition to have the city purchase the rights of the Flatbusn Water Company or, if necessary, condemn the plant. The Controller says that Ihis is the only water company that it would be worth the city's while to negotiate with.

The proposition advanced by Borough President Swa.i-slrom that the city acquire all the small water companies In the borough Controller Grout does not approve. Even with Controller Grout and Borough President Swanstrom advocating the plan to acquire the rights of the Flatbush Water Company it is not believed that anything will come of the proposition, for the present at least. There is some doubt In the minds of the city authorities as to how far the city can go In the matter of purchasing or condemning the plants of private companies furnishing water to the city. There Is a clauso in the charter which would seem to give the Board of Estimate power "to go ahead and acquire the plants of private retirement Mr. Carroll has frequently told his friends that he had abandoned political affairs for good.

On Mr. Crolor's side It i said that the ex-chief has recently been persuaded that Magistrate Steers held Haupert for c.amina tion when he was arraigned to-day. "You are charged with murder in the first degree," said the Recorder, as Spencer was arraigned before him. "Do you demand a trial: do you plead guilty or not guilty?" "We plead not guilty," was ex-Judge Lynn's reply. The Recorder set June 30 as the day when thf' case shall come up for trial.

During the proceedings Spencer stood before the bar and looked calmly about the rcom. He did not seem to appreciate or mind the situation in which he has so suddenly found himself. The court room was crowded, but no negroes were allowed in the Mr. Carroll's attitude was misrepresented to him in the fall of 1001, when the Croker re as an assistant rector oi St. Stephen Church, Manhattan, where he was assigned organization was effected.

The officers and men with whom Chaplain Chidwick associated will learn of his resignation with regret, but it is understood he desired to return to. pastoral work and that he will receive an Important parish in Manhattan from Archbishop Farley.

Ac in Bath Beach, where she is now staying at her mother's home.

"If I don't hear from her by to-morrow morning." Mr. Burnett said to-day, "I shall not make any further movement looking, to a reconciliation. She can go her own way. If she does come back she'll have lo quit dancing and receiving women who are crazy on the matter. With these things settled I'll be satisfied, but they'll have to be settled.

It will go hard with her, I know, to give up dancing, but she must." Mr. Burnett wants the impression removed that there was any personal animus against, her partner in the Polytechnic dance, who happened lo be Harry Journcny. ''I've known Harry since he was a boy," Mr. Burnett said, "and I have the utmost confidence in him in every way. He's a thoroughly honorable fellow in every way.

Young Mr. Burnett has in mind a yacht voyage, with snakes aboard for exhibition purposes that is likely to startle the natives of Long Isl.tnd this year. He proposes to start early in July with a boat load of snakes, which he will exhibit In every coast, town, beginning at Oyster Bay and rounding the Island.

No definite interpretation of the section of the charter referred lo has yet been given, although it Is very likely that Borough President Swanstrom's communication on the subject will bring the matter to a head soon. Neither Corporation Counsel Rives, nor Corporation Counsel Whnlen, his predecessor, decided whether or not. the city could proceed to condemn the plant of the Flatbush Water Company in accordance with the resolution Introduced In the old Board of Public Improvements.

As a result of Borough President Swanstrom's communication reviving Interest In the matter, however, it Is probable that In the very near future the Board of Estimate will ask Corporation Counsel Rives to give an opinion as to whether or not the city may proceed to condemn the plant of the Flatbush company, and the other concerns mentioned by Borough President Swanstrom in his letter to the Mayor.

There was a frantic ringing of the telephone in the Lee avenue station house at 8 o'clock this morning, and a woman's voice made known lo the sergeant that a mad dog had the run of the promises at 2S Heyward and she wanted several policemen to kill the brute.
