Asbury Park is preparing to make the Annual Carnival, beginning Thursday, August 26, one of the greatest spectacles ever witnessed in that charming Sylvan City by the Sea. Carnival Week, with its Boat Festivals, its Coronation, its Masque Night and its Baby Parade, is the culmination of the summer season and it annually attracts thousands of sightseers and participants. A big amphitheatre, seating eight thousand people, has been erected and will be the central vantage point for the more elaborate ceremonials of this week devoted to the worship of Momus. Here on Tuesday, August 31, will occur the coronation of Queen- Titania, with elaborate ceremonial borrowed from the days of knighthood, and here for three days the lovely Queen, surrounded by a court of charming maids, will reign supreme. Puck, the naughty sprite, will be ever at the Queen's elbow as general director of the fast and furious fun, and on Wednesday, the great day, the Masque Fete, those who win the favor of the Queen and sprite, will be elevated to knighthood.

Here will also occur on Thursday afternoon, September 2, the Baby Parade, one of the prettiest events of the whole carnival. The Pennsylvania Railroad has arranged to run a late train from Asbury Park to New York, stopping at principal stations, fox the accommodation of those who attend the Masque Fete, September 1. Train will leave Asbury Park at 11:00 P.M., stopping at all stations between Long Branch and Perth Amboy, and at Rahway, Elizabeth and Newark. The regular service to and from Asbury Park will be found very comprehensive. Purchase Proposition.

We feel that this road Is an Important link in our commercial and social advancement.

E. H. Harriman wi resting quietly his home at Arden.

this morning and hau not been disturbed, at! The general eounael of -Judc Lovett, went out to aee him. It was with something or a shock yea terday afternoon that some halt a hundred or more newspaper men, artists and assembled on the Erie Railroad pier at Jersey, City, saw a little man, shriveled, yellow and emaciated, walk up to the rail of the tug El Toro and smile. Possibly to those who had known him r4nllmlt.lv nf' Alf We 'tn aiima 'nTrr B. H. Harrlman, unconquered by illness i'and as undaunted of spirit as ever.

But to those who" saw him'for the" Urst time as he stood on the high deck of that little (tug, throwing a frail little smile in response to a cheer that someone had he wsb only a very sick little man; so sick a little man, Indeed, that many of the reporters present who had come to the meeting place equipped with great many pertinent questions, forgot of them. Taking Rest Cure at Arden Towers. Mr. Harrlman Is 'at Arden Towers this morning "beginning the first day of-his after cure. After a great many minor mishaps he finally reached his waiting special train at Jersey City at 5 o'clock yesterday aftornoon.

Mr. Harrlman had elected to stay with the Kaiser Wilhelm II until she docked at Iher Hoboken berth, instead of leaving the liner at quarantine to board the tug his friends and associates had provided for him. The liner had been detained at quarantine while a propeller shaft was being adjusted and the death of two children in the steerage was being Investi gated. Mr. Harrlman left the steamer.

junffgtor, juai suuu as me uig uuer uu ('been warped into her place in Hoboken, and within fifteen minutes after that was steaming down the Hudson, where the newspaper men, artiste and photographers had been waiting since 2:30 o'clock and before. It was then 6 P.M. Frail and Weazened, hut Affable. Mr. Harrlman was very affable' to the newspaper men.

Some of these who had long enough memories, and experience, recalled occasions when this little weaz- oned up man was not always affable, or even, polite. That was when he was the "old Harrlman indeed." But yesterday as he leaned over the rail, averting his face until the rest of bis family came up to be photographed with him, there wasn't a vestige of his old manner left. His eyes, which have always been black and piercing, a little too piercing some people have. like- his old self. And when he talked to the newspaper men later In the little parlor of the special car in which he was trav ellng, his' voice was as of old.

There was an Independence in it which ran oddly as contrasted with hie emaciation, and as he -went on, telling of some of his plans and meeting the rapid fire ques Hons the eager newspaper men poured down on him, the first Impression of his appearance was removed and those who haj pitied him at first found themselves wondering if Harrlman was really as sick as they first thought. Lay Sown for His Newspaper Inter- Mr. Harrlman was accompanied by Mrs iHarriman. his daughters Carol, Mary and Mrs. Robert S.

Gerry, Roland Harrl man. Judge Robert Lovett and Carl Jungen. In the short ten or fifteen minutes tbat the- special that took him and his party to Arden Towers, where Mr. Harrlman is to take the "after cure." was laying on the Erie spur in the railroad yards at Jersey City, the little financier was asked a hundred or more questions. The most of these he answered lying down on a couch, with pillows under his head.r Later he sat upright for a moment or two, impatiently waved away his wife -who seemed wor sted because the place was go hot and he was talking so much.

Judge Lovett, who Interposed a suggestion that the financier was possibly exerting himself too much, was also brushed aside. Harrlman said It made him feel better to talk-only he wasn't answering any questions he didn't want to, for all that. Will Spend Lots of Money Develop-' ing His Railroad Mr. Harrlman said that a great deal of money Is to be spent In the development of the lines he now owns and hopes to own. He would not sav whether or not he Jihad been buying Vanderbilt stock to get jf control or the New York Central.

He had nothing to say about the segregation of Union Pacific holdlpgs." He grew cynical when he referred to the many changes iii the laws being enacted in the United States, declaring that he thought he would have now to deal with office holders Instead of stockholders when. he. got back. He would not talk about, extra, dividends on Union Pacific. New railroad lines will be develooed and old ones Datcheri uo.

ft He talked for quller a -lodg while' about such matters, but the interest of those present wss not so much in what he said. AAt an mtij.h In i a mom vKa mil V. i.A wanted to ana lert unsaid wnat he did not, as In the man himself Looks to Be a Very Sick Man. The sum total, of the scrutiny to which Mr. Harrlman was subjected yesterday was that he Is a very sick man.

H9 collapsed on the liner soon after the ves- sel reached quarantine because, he ex plained, bis- stomach wenf 'back- on him.H He Bad eaten three-meats' a day all the way over and only got sea sick, as he said ruefully, after the big vessel got to port. The man seemed hardly able to stand on his feet when be first stood up oa the deck of the tug El Toro. and In the short walk down the stairs and the gangplank he seemed to be on the verge of collapse. He had to be assisted down the stairs and just as soon as he reached the special car he lay down and rested. Mr.

Harrlman's eyes were at times a little glassy, and when he smiled there wasn't very much humor In "Ant Am ffnlnff tn frAt haolr tio ton Fine Residence on Shore Drive, Overlooking' Narrows, Changes Hands.

QUEENS ASKS BRIDGE CARS. Transportation Facilities Across New Span Subject of Special Meeting Last Night. Nearly every member of the Committee of Forty of Queens was present at a special- meeting called last night by President Bagraw to consider matter! of transnortatlon across the bridge. The applications lor a rrancnise to cross the bridge by the South Shore Traction Company, the Queensboro Bridge and Jamaica Company and the Third Ave nue line were discussed. Among those who spoke were D.

S. Sanborn of toe Flushing Association. Jamea Murname of the Dutch Kills Taxpayers Association, Carl Schaffenburg of the. German-American Taxpayers Asaoclation. The sentiment expressed by an tnose who spoke was that the demand on the part of the city for the payment of large by companies desiring to extend their lines across the bridge was against the best Interest of Queens.

The senti ment also most decidedly wag In favor of considerable consideration being shown to the New York Queens County line which la in a position to give transpor tation In a short time. A resolution was nassed calling on the Board of Estimate to have a meeting as soon as possible and to grant this company permission to cross the bridge its own terms. A resolution was also passed declaring It the sentiment of the committee that the Third avenue railroad should be al lowed to cross the bridge and extend Its line in Queens County along Jackson avenue as far. as the Queens County court house. A resolution was passed requesting tne commissioner of bridges to establish comfort stations and drinking fountains on the bridge and also to keep his prom ise to have elevators put In the towers at the Vernon avenue piers so that peo ple living In the Kavenswooa section 01 Long Island City could have access to the bridge.

MARITAL LUTE IS MENDED. John Wheeler. 30 years old. who occu pies a position on the New York Cen tral and Hudson River Railroad, was arrested In Mannattan yenterday by Court Offloer White of the Coney Island Court, on a charge of abandonment preferred by bis wife, Mrs. May Wbeeler of 2875 West Twenty-second street.

Magistrate Furlong gave the case over to Probation Officer Mrs. Hughes, who managed to settle up affairs so satisfactorily that the -weat-borne BECAUSE OF BOARD BILL Mrs. Peters Will Not Give Up Little Dorothy Crotty Until $15 Is Paid. BABY CLAIMED YESTERDAY. Mrs.

Crotty Has Been Living in ManhattanThought Husband Had Paid for Child's Care. Little Dorothy Crotty, the 2 year old girl for whom Mrs. Annie Peters of 63 Middagh street has been caring for the pain two months, as told in the Eagle was reclaimed by her mother yesterday. Mrs. Mary Crotty called at the Middagh street house and told Mrs.

Peters that she had been confined to her bed with sickness for the past several months and had been imable to get her child. She has boen living with Mr. and Mrs. Charles Burkhardt at 123 East One Hundred and Twenty-sixth street, Manhattan, and Mr. Burkhardt accompanied her on her trip to see her daughter yesterday.

Notwithstanding the long separation, Dorothy remembered her mother and greeted her with childish delight. Still she did not seem to want to leave Mrs. Peters who has been so kind to her. Mrs. Crotty Immediately demanded her child's return.

Mrs. Peters, however, claimed a board bill of 20 due for the keeping of the little one. Mr. Burkhardt, who accompanied the mother, offered his card as security for the payment of the bill. When Mrs.

Crotty found, that Mrs. Peters would not give up the child without a payment on the board bill, she returned to her home. She promised to bring the money to Mrs. Peters some time this week and then take the child home with her. "I am perfectly willing to return the baby to Its own mother," said Mrs.

Peters to an Eagle reporter to-day, "but after I have fed It find clothed It for the past to months. I think It is certainly no more than right tbat I am paid for my trouble. "A week after Mrs. Crotty left Dorothy with me, she wrote saying that if I would keep the child for a while, she would pay me J2 a week for her board. On that basis, sbe owes me 320, but I am willing to let it go at 316, for it was really a pleasure to care for such a bright youngster.

She claims that I want to keep her; but what can I want of her with six children of my own? I am glad, for Dorothy's sake, that she can be with her own parents once more." Interested In the child by the article which appeared in the Eagle yesterday afternoon, several people have written to Mrs. Peters, expressing a wlah to adopt the little one. Mrs. Crotty explained that her failure to pay the board bill for Dorothy to Mrs. Peters was due to her husband.

She says that she handed $2 to him every week and had always thought that the bills were being paid, until informed otherwise yesterday. POLITICAL NOTES Woodruff and Parsons to Confer on Mayoralty Timber. Ketz Considered as Likely to Again Be Candidate for Controller. Other Gossip. When Timothy L.

Woodruff reaches state headquarters to-morrow, he will at once arrange a conference with Herbert Parsons to consider the po sltlon to be taken on the leading ques tions of the coming city campaign. The first and most important part ot the ds eusslon will undoubtedly concern Itself with available material for the nomina tion for mayor. It is known that Woodruff is of the opinion that none of the men so far put forward as available by the Republicans has made any noticeable appeal to the people of the city. Wood ruff has been urged by his leading ad vlsers in Brooklyn to take under consld eratlon the advisability of nominating Judge Gaynor as the fusion candidate and It is said that he is Inclined to regard this course as the one which promises most for success this fall. It is certain, however, that nothing along this line will be definitely settled until there has been an opportunity to learn from Judge Gay cor himself whether or not the plan would meet his approval.

After threatening to do dire things to former Assemblyman Charles F. Murphy of Brooklyn, because ot his vote against the direct primaries bill last winter, the Young Republicans have decided that It Is hardly worth while to run a candi date against Murphy for the Republican leadership of the Tenth Assembly Dls trict. It is expected that the Young Republicans will devote all their energy to an effort to control the delegates to the Assembly convention which will nom inate a candidate to succeed Murphy at Albany. In tbat convention the direct primary issue will be clearly drawn, a'ld It Is likely that the sentiment of the district will find expression. Murphy will oppose the Instruction of the candidate on any question.

He is openly opposed to the direct primaries principle, but is in favor of leaving the legislative repra-sentative of the district entirely free to vote as he considers wise on all bills. Murphy says that the practice of instruct ing- or pledging candidates results In harm and contusion. Alfred J. Boulton. wno was very prom inent In Independence League affairs In Brooklyn tor several years, but later had a falling out with the local leaders, has renewed his relations with the organization and is In the field as a possible candidate for Borough President.

Unless William R. Hearst finances the party, the Republicans and Democrats say, the vote this fall win Do almost a negugaom quantity. Metz for Mayor" Is the slogan with which the Controller's friends will greet him on their excursion down the bay to meet the Incoming steamship on which he Is returning from abroad. This cry Is regarded by the wise ones as all righi for political purposes, but not as a true expression ot the desires or intentions of the Controller or of his friends. The opinion appears to be gaining trength daily that Metz is the likeliest candidate to succeed himself as Controller.

Conservative Democrats are nearly unanimous In the following views: 1. That Tammany will not try tcnoml- nate Judge Gaynor for Mayor. 2. That Tammany's real candidate Is Justice Victor J. Dowllng.

3. That Tammany will recognize Brook lyn's right to the selection of a candidate for Controller, and 4. That Metz will have the support of the entire Brooklyn delegation. OBITUARY NOTES. Charles Otto Wolferts died VMterdav at hl residence.
