Frank Longo, Was Taken Away on May 13 and Sent Home Last Night. In the arrest of nine men and one woman, today, in various parts of Manhattan and Brooklyn, the police believe they have custody the band of kidnappers that has been terrorizing the Italian and citizens of New York merchants, years, kidnapping their children and threatening to visit horrible deaths on them if their demands for money were not complied with. men were arrested following the return, last night, to his home of Frank Longo, 8 years old, son of Frank Longo, owner of a bakeshop 100 Bleecker street, Manhattan, after the father had paid, the police say, $700 to one of the men Monday night. Those arrested gave their names as: Frank Macaluso, 36 years old, owner of a grocery store at 864 East Seventy-sixth street, and living at 311 East Seventy-sixth street; Pasquale Milone, 30 years old, laborer, of 242 East Seventy-fifth street; Cologaro Milone, his brother, years old, a laborer; Nicolo Rotolo, 37 years old, owner of a bakeshop at 33 Bedford street; Nunzio Paladino, 36 years old, a laborer, of 3 Goerck street; Antonio Dominico, 39 years old, a laborer, of 2167 Coney Island avenue, Brooklyn; Achillo La Rosa, a baker, 255 Elizabeth street, and Antonio Sirogusa, 44 years old, a flower merchant, of 321 East Twelfth street. Vincenzo Aceno and his wife, Barbara, were also arrested at 53 Goerck street.

According to Captain Tunney, the eight men have been under surveillance for some time following the receipt of by the kidnapped boy's father demanding money under penalty of doaway with his son. Frank Longo was kidnapped in front of his school at Grove and Hudson streets, Manhattan, on May 13 last. According to the story he told the police, man came up to him and said that he was a friend of his father's and had been directed by his father to take the boy on an outing. The boy suspected nothing and went with the man. He said that they walked to a car that has a door on the side, believed by the police to have been the Spring street car line and then rode under a bridge, presumably the Williamsburg Bridge, and then went to the top floor of a house near the bridge.

The house, they boy said, had a wooden stoop, and it was this that served as the clew for Captain Tunney and his detectives in locating this morning the house at 53 Goerck street, and the rooms on the top floor where the boy was kept. Little Frank to returned to his home last night and told his father that a man had taken him to the street from the house and then walked away. He said he had been directed to his home by he met. Captain Tunney took the boy in an automobile last night and followed Spring street east to the Williamsburg Bridge. When the automobile slowly drove past Goerck street Frank cried out: "I think that's the street." The car drove slowly down the street and suddenly Frank excitedly pointed to a house.

"There is the house where I was," he said. "It was the house with the wooden stoop." After leaving the house, Captain Tunney gave orders to arrest the men who had been under surveillance, and the arrests were made early this morning in various parts of the city at the same time.

Eastern Steamship Corporation BOMB UNDER TABLE AWAITED ARCHDUKE Infernal Machine Also Discovered in Room of Duchess of Hohenberg at Ilije, Vienna, Austria, July 1-The conspiracy against the lives of Archduke Francis Ferdinand and the Duchess of Hohenberg was SO well planned that it would have been impossible for them to escape from Bosnia alive, according to some members of the late archduke's suite, who returned here today. The officials declare that two clockwork bombs were found beneath the table on which luncheon was awaiting the archducal party on their return to the City Hall. A similar infernal machine also was discovered in the chimney the room occupied by the Duchess of Hohenberg at Ilije, a watering place a few miles from Sarayevo, and a woman was caught with seven bombs in her possession. The bullet which killed the archduke was an explosive one.

It has been ascertained by the authorities that Gavrio Prinzip, the assassin, is the son of the proprietor of an hotel at Sarayevo, and that he has passed his year so that he may be sentenced to death for the crime. Agram, Croatia, Jul y1-Anti-Servian demonstrations continued here today when a crowd gathered in front of the Town Hall and demanded that the Mayor return a Servian decoration recently conferred on him. START FERRY TO BEACH Hemlock Beach Will Be Rendezvous of Vacationers. (Special to The Eagle.) Amityville, L. July 1-Beginning next Friday the ferry service to Hemlock Beach will be put into operation.

It is expected that large throngs of people from here and from Farmingdale and other inland villages will take advantage of the holiday on the beach. In Babylon extra trips will be made by the Muncie Island and Oak Island ferries on Friday afternoon and Saturday to accommodate the weekend crowds. Almost every cottage in the Oak Island Beach Colony has been engaged for the Fourth and early July. Ocean Beach, Point o' Woods and Saltaire promise to be the rendezvous for hundreds of visitors from Manhattan, Brooklyn and other large places in this State as well as some Middle West cities. A perusal of hotel registers and cottage lists on Great South Beach will show that the number of visitors from the West represent by no means a small majority.

New Jersey also sends its quota of pleasure seekers the narrow strip of beach that separates the Great South Bay from the Atlantic Ocean, and this in spite of the reputation the Jersey coast has acquired as a center for beach resorts, In the larger colonies water carnivals will be run off for the enjoyment and participation of the visitors and on the evening of the Fourth fireworks will be displayed in every settlement.

In addition to charging 15 cents to sit upon the beach at Brighton, the Brighton Beach Development Company has further erected a 200-foot sign facing the water, that reads: "Notice: Canoe Fee, The beach at Brighton has for years been a favorite rendezvous of many canoeists who come from the neighboring inlets and bays. When they were greeted with the large sign today they were filled with dismay, as the average canoeist's pocket is only large enough to hold a quarter.

Arrangements were completed for holding the most elaborate observance of Independence Day that the village of Queens has ever seen. Chairman Edward W. Ladew of the military committee stated that the best way to see the sham battle between the Twenty-second Regiment soldiers on Saturday afternoon will be to go north on North Wertland avenue to Wood avenue and from that point seek positions of vantage. The maneuvers will be of exceptional interest and the test of the new explosive which is exciting so much attention in army circles will be a feature of the occasion. Mrs.

Henry Stein, chairman of the young folks parade committee, requested that all mothers of the vicinity having babies 3 years old or under enter them in the contests for the handsome prizes that will be awarded and that the young folks dress in costume and come to Creed avenue before 10 o'clock on Saturday morning, when they will be assigned to proper divisions.

If he cannot get the place he wants in mid-Manhattan, he is coming back to Brooklyn. st says that there is no money down town left to bet. WHY WE NEED THE NICKELS (A Continued Story) CHAPTER X. 'Attention has been directed in earlier chapters to the common interest of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit System and its patrons in all the conditions surrounding the production of the transportation commodity. Our story would be far from complete if we failed to point out Brooklyn's interest in the final disposition of the nickels we receive.

The personal history of the transportation nickel is something like this: Our patron pays it as his fare. We receive it, at the rate (because of the free transfer system) of 3.74 cents per ride, and transmute it into surface and elevated railroad service, In so doing, we turn back 8 very substantial part directly, and a much larger part indirectly, to the same community whence it came, retaining as compensation for our corporate services, sufficient to pay at the rate of six per cent. (no more than ordinary commercial rate) on the stock investment of those who own the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company. We are spending more and more money in Brooklyn every year. And as our system expands under the new rapid transit arrangement with the city, these local expenditures may be expected to increase at an even faster pace than in the past.

In the last fiscal year, out of our transportation receipts of 3.74 cents per passenger, 1.39 cents, or over 37 per went right back to Brooklyn in wages. Nor was this all that' Brooklyn received in wages from the B. R. T. In addition to the wage items included in the operating expenses, large parts of the expenditure chargeable to capital account went to pay the men engaged in construction work, of different kinds.

In the year ended June 30, 1913, operating expenses of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit System amounted to $12,833,456. Of this, upwards of $8,700,000 represented wages, and our total wage bill, including wages chargeable to capital account, was $8,826,444. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit System is, therefore, the largest employer and the largest individual spender in Brooklyn. The way in which this spending capacity has been built up with the growth of the system is illustrated by these comparisons of operating expenses during the last twelve years: In 1902 operating expenses were in 1905 they were in 1909 they were and in 1913 they had increased to $12,833,456. In the same period, $46,358,551 has been spent on the property out of the proceeds of capital issued, and a good many millions of that total have been required for the wages of the men who built the new roadway, laid the new track, built and equipped the new power houses and shops, and assembled and set up the new operating equipment.

In addition to the wage item, we are spending hundreds of thousands every year in the purchase of supplies from Brooklyn firms or corporations, In the year ended June 30, 1913, such purchases aggregated figure which makes no account of the purchases from firms having their headquarters in Manhattan and their factories in Brooklyn, and similarly looks purchases from firms manufacturing in Manhattan and employing Brooklyn residents. Still further, a very large number of the security holders of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company and its affiliated corporations are Brooklyn investors, and the interest, rentals and dividends received by them all go to swell the return to Brooklyn out of the toll of its nickels paid for transportation, Upon which premises the following questions are submitted: Is not the enterprise which built up this institution, out of more than sixty scattered steam surface, elevated and street railroad companies, entitled to a fair measure of recognition for its contribution to the business stability of Brooklyn, to say nothing of its contribution to Brooklyn's transportation facilities Should not this enterprise be encouraged by commendation and by co-operation in extending its service to the prosperity of the Borough, rather than discouraged by unreasonable criticism and by the effort to cut down and interfere with its constructive activities? If the business were anything but that of providing transportation, would it not be recognized as the most important factor in the upbuilding of Brooklyn from a collection of isolated villages to a great Borough of nearly 2,000,000 people? We ask these questions, not to invite praise or to escape criticism, but because we are committed to the expenditure of many millions of new money which we have raised with the expectation of performing an even more important service for Brooklyn in making possible the city's enlarged rapid transit plan. Our hope of ever realizing by reason of these great expenditures a dollar of profit for the stockholders of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, whose credit in turn made the expenditures possible, depends upon bringing a million additional people to live in Brooklyn. This cannot be done if complaint and opposition based upon the discomforts of the very conditions we are trying to remedy spreads abroad the impression that Brooklyn is a bad place to live and do business in. It can be done, and that in a very few years, if Brooklyn will have reasonable patience under these discomforts and will aid us in the remedial work.

The development from the small beginnings of years gone by, the substantial attainment of the present and the anticipation of greater attainment in the future, are all linked together in teaching this lesson of co-operation that we have been so insistently emphasizing by illustrations from all departments of railroad organization. Co-operation means, literally, working together. Obviously there can be but one continuing basis for such mutual effort, and that is the constant realization that OUR INTERESTS YOUR INTERESTS ARE BROOKLYN RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM July 1, 1914. 26 CHILDREN KILLED In New York Streets by Vehicles During June. The report of the National Highways Protective Society of deaths due to vehicular traffic for the month of June, issued today, shows that twenty-six children were killed on the streets of New York City of a total death list of fifty-three persons.

Automobiles and motorcycles head the list as causes of the fatalities. Colonel Edward S. Cornell, secretary of the society, stated that most of the fatalities occur on Saturdays and Sundays, when the streets and buolevards are filled with automobiles operated by the owners, who, under the present law, are not compelled to take out licenses as chauffeurs. REYNOLDS OUT SATURDAY. It was stated at St.

Luke's Hospital, Manhattan, today that former State Senator William H. Reynolds would be discharged and allowed to go to his home on Saturday. He has been in the hospital since last Saturday, when he was accidentally shot with Mayor Mitchel's revolver. Dr. Jameson, who has been attending him, says that the Senator is out of danger.

HELD ON TWO CHARGES. Harry Gordon, 21 years old, of 377 Winona street, was arraigned before Magistrate Voorhees in the New Jersey avenue court today, on a charge of assault and robbery, and held in $3,000 bail. The complainant was Alexander Barshousky, of Snedeker avenue, who said Gordon held him up and stole $30 from him last evening. He was later arrested by Detecives McKeene and Burke, of the Miller avenue station. The culprit is also under a suspended sentence for stealing horse and wagon, some weeks ago.

He was held for examination tomorrow. ORDER DrinkA CASE TODAY MOXIE 2,529 ON AQUTANIA. Big Liner Backs Out of Slip in Nine Minutes. Another Atlantic record was broken today, when the Cunard Line steamship Aqutania carried away a total of 1,379 cabin passengers, there being on the great ship, 761 saloon and 618 seeond cabin; in her third class she tok away a total of 2,529.

The Aquitanta managed to slip her harness o'clock, and with the assistance of half a dozen tugs, backed into the ebbing tide. In exactly nine minutes from the turn of her propellers in the slip, she was again churnthe waters, outward bound, under her own power; a record for a ship of her class. AUTO STRIKES B. R. T.
