MISCELLANEOUS. MISCELLANEOUS. 42 TEARS IN SING SING POOR BASE RAY 0. SMITH DICTATOR OF ALBANY LEGISLATION PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD Bulletin. THE COMFORT AND PLEASURE OF TRAVEL.

The test of a railroad is the service it provides. The best service means a roadway rock-ballasted and free of dust; a track as smooth as a dancing floor, protected by all approved safety appliances, and guarded day and night by eagle-eyed men of skill. It means powerful engines, driven by, trained hands and steel nerves, that make their schedules, even a mile a minute, every day in the year. It means equipment that makes travel an unalloyed pleasure, and that affords every convenience and comfort of the best-appointed home or hotel; a dining service that successfully competes with the best cafes in the land. Add to this service the considerate attention of courteous and accommodation trainmen, and a panorama of picturesque' farm lands alternating with fertile river valleys and forest-clad mountains, and you have a railroad that appeals to every traveler.

The next time you want to go to Chicago take one of the fast through express trains of the Pennsylvania Railroad and see how closely it measures up to the test of perfect service. Eighteen hours is the time of the Special" from 3:55 P. M. to 8:55 A. M.

and you may rest as comfortably as in a metropolitan hotel, for in addition to a smooth roadbed you have the pleasing sensation of swift and easy motion. Ticket Offices st 283 Fifth Avenue (open until 10:1) P.M. dally. Including Sundays and holidays). 12 Fifth Avenue, 170.

New York. 188 Maatasa Street. BrookJy. DARLINGTON HAS LOST AMBULANCE CONTROL Money for Brooklyn Hospitals Not Paid Through Health I Department. NEW SYSTEM WORKING WELL Incidentally, the Hospitals Are Independent in Their Choice of Am- i bulance Surgeons.

The Health Department no longer has Jurisdiction over the ambulance service In the Borough of Brooklyn. From all the information that was available this morning the jurisdiction over the service is about evenly divided between the Police Department and the respective hospitals. The consent of Dr. Darlington as the Health Commissioner is no longer necessary for the designation of young internes to serve as ambulance surgeons. And from all, accounts Dr.

H. Beekman Delatour has ceased to be the ambulance surgeon-in-chief. These changes, it appears, were made at the first of the year at the instigation of Controller Metz. Since consolidation Brooklyn has been the only borough of the five where the ambulance service was under the jurisdiction of the Health Department. It was a system which prevailed in the old city of Brooklyn pursuant to some old law and was continued after consolidation was effected.

Instead of paying the hospitals directly for their service the money was turned over to the Health Department, and in this way that department was given control over the service. The practice involved extra bookkeeping, and when Mr. Metz began his crusade to reorganize the city finances he decided, at the recommendation of Dr. Daniel C. Potter, the head of the Bureau of Charitable to pay the money appropriated annually to the hospitals directly from the Finance Department, Accordingly the appropriation was cut off from the Health Department, and since then Dr.

Darlington's jurisdiction over the ambulance service has been at an end. "I haven't had anything to do with the ambulance service since the first of the year," said Dr. "It was usually my prerogative as the health commissioner to make the appointments of the surgeons' who were to serve at the different hospitals in Brooklyn. But since tne appropriation was cut off from the Health Department my jurisdiction in tnat direction has ceased. Dr.

Potter of the Finance Department said to-day that the control which the Health Department had over the ambu lance service in Brooklyn was so nominal that it was only almost farcical. "The talk that Darlington had the ap pointment of the ambulance surgeons Is all nonsense," said Dr. Potter- "The young physicians who were chosen to serve In this capacity were selected by tne autnorities ot tne different hospitals and their names submitted to Dr. Darlington for appointment, merely as a matter of courtesy. He had nothing to do with their selection.

"We decided that it was ridiculous to have the Health Department pay the annual compensation to these hospitals when it could be done Just as well by the Finance Department. The new system obviates a great deal of unnecessary bookkeeping, and the hospitals receive their money as regularly as when the Health Department had charge of the funds. "As far as I know now jurisdiction over the ambulance service in Brooklyn is now divided between the hospitals themselves and the police commissioner. He maps out the districts in which the ambulances of the respective hospitals are expected to respond to calls. The new system is working Just as smoothly as when it was under the control of the Health Department." Dr.

H. Beekman Delatour, who was designated as the ambulance surgeon In chief and to whom the young surgeons were primarily responsible, could not be reached at his home this afternoon. Therefore it could not be definitely learned if the hospitals had reached an agreement among themselves to continue him In his former capacity as surgeon In chief. The hospitals each receive about $1,200 annually for maintaining the ambulance service and a certain amount each day for patients who are admitted at the expense of the city. STARVED AND TIRED.

Aue Was Found He Had Lost His Memory Secovers in jf. Hospital. After having walked the streets of Brooklyn for a week looking vainly for work of any kind, during which time he had very little if anything to eat, Rudolph Aue, formerly of 635 Chauncey street. Brooklyn, was taken to the Norwegian Hospital last night, suffering from a complete lapse of memory. Aue was found on Eighty-eighth street by Gerald Dusty ot Seventh avenue and Eighty-eighth street.

Fort Hamilton, who took him to the Fort Hamilton police station, where he was unable to speak, write or give signs of any kind. A letter was found on his person, which gave his name and address and was signed "Aunt Amelia" and was from Livingston. Mass. All kinds of attempts were made by the police to get some information from him but in vain. He was handed a pad and pencil, policemen speaking foreign languages interviewed him, an officer understanding the deaf and dumb code tried to talk with him, but without success.

Finally, an ambulance was summoned from the Norwegian Hospital and he was removed. This morning he became conscious and said that his condition was due to the fact that he had been on his feet for a week seeking work in vain. He declared that he was too proud to ask for anything to eat and had hardly tasted a morsel since last Monday. His last place of residence was at the Chauncey street address. He said that he left there because he had no money with which to pay his board.

Three or four years ago the suam-hip Maraval of the Trinidad 1 -was four or five days overdue. One of the New York and Porto Rico liner, was overdue. Both turned up safely tn the Atlantic Dock with no material dsa Among the passengers on the Trlrided boat was a tall, nanaaouw. man who was Introduced to the Begle reporter as General Paredes. Wearing a military cloak, he was a striking figure and as courteous as possible.

He njaae no secret of the fact that he came here to prepare to organize a revolution that would depose Castro. There were sev-eral passengers on board who knew General Paredes In Trinidad, among them being a couple of priests. An Eagle reporter suggested to nlta that he had a strong and heartless opponent to deal with; he remarked, quietly, that he knew it, and was prepared to meet the situation. The result was that General Paredes left here shortly afterward, landed with, sixteen followers In Venesuela. was captured and promptly shot by Castro, and no ceremony about It.

It was another Virginlus affair, but Paredes" brother represents the present administration In Trinidad, and If the ex-dictator ever falls Into his hands he will have a very ua- happy exit from this world. There are others, also, who are eagerly looking to: run across Castro- LOST MORNING GAME Brooklyn Beaten in Ninth Inning at Boston by 3 to 2. CHAPELLE MADE A HOME RUN. Home Pitcher Hero of the Game. Burch Banished From Game for Kicking.

(Special to the Eagle.) Boston. April 19 The Superbas failed to stop the winning streak of the Bostons this morning, losing In the ninth after holding the National League leaders on even terms all the way. The score was 3 to 2. Boston is celebrating the anniversary of the Battle of Lexington to-day and ten thousand fans were out to witness the ball game, which was a part of the Patriots Day festivities. The weather Is pleasant and even a larger crowd Is expected out this afternoon when the two teams clash again.

Lack of timely hitting was responsible for the previous defeats of the Brooklyns, but this morning they threw away their chances of victory by poor base running in the second inning, when, wltji one out, Luniley singled and Jordan followed with a double. Luniley tried to score and was caught between third and home, while a moment later Jordan was nailed off second. Chapelle and Bell were the opposing pitchers, the big Boston twirler not only having the better of the duel, but re ceiving the credit of winning bis own game with a home run drive over the fence with Sweeney on second. Sweeney brought in the winning run in the ninth with a timely single. Al Burcb has the distinction of being the first Brooklyn player to be cbased from a ball game for kicking this season.

He objected too strenuously to a decision in the third and was sent to the President Dovey of the Bostons bos gone to Cincinnati to attend a meeting of the National Commission, which has taken up the dispute with the Trenton club.

Pushing through the mob he entered the store of John Milano and found ten Italians about to begin a fight. He grabbed Antonio Milano, who had a revolver In his hand, and then arrested the other occupants of the store. When- arraigned at the Butler street court this morning the prisoners were all dismissed except Antonio Mlleno vho was charged with carrying concealed weaoons.

Magistrate Geismar. who was sitting at the court this morning, fined him $10, and he was let go. It was afterwards learned that Milano had been threatened by the Black Hand, but when questioned about the matter he failed to tell the names of any of his enemies and left the court. L-l Accused of Over 100 Robberies, and Judge Dike Cave Him the Limit. MOSTLY POOR PEOPLE ROBBED Citizens Need Fear Him No More.

Caught Breaking Into Policeman's Apartments. Judge Dike, In the Criminal Term of the County Court, this morning, again served notice on all burglars and professional criminals that Brooklyn is not a good place for them to operate in, by sentencing an Eastern District burglar to forty-two years in Sing Sing Prison. Practically all the cases which came up before him to-day were old offenders, and the judge announced that he was going to give them the limit. The sentence of the burglar for forty-two years establishes a new record for length of sentences for burglary in this county. With commutation for good behavior, the sentence may be reduced to twenty-six years and two months.

Hyman Grltzhandler, 31 years old, who said he lived at 244 Wallabout street, received the sentence. He was accused of over a hundred petty robberies. Grltz handler was caught in company with Meyer Krinlch, in the act of trying to enter the apartments of Officer Leonard Woodle of the Adams street station, at 282 South Second street, on the night of Saturday, April 3. Krinich had his sentence postponed for a week, so as to give his lawyer, Charles E. Russell, an opportunity to decide whether the plea of guilty of attempted burglary In the first degree as a second offense should be withdrawn, and one of not guilty watered in its place.

After being inditeJ for attempted burglary In the first degree, as second offenders, they both put In a plea of guilty. In passing sentence Judge Dike praised the work of the detectives irf capturing the men. He said: "One hundred burglaries have occurred within the last year In the Eastern District of this borough. In most cases the victims were poor people. All the bur glaries bore the marks of having been perpetrated by the same person's, yet notwithstanding the vigilance of the police, they seemed to escape detection.

"You were captured a short time ago, and on account of your police record have been Indicted as second offenders. It seems morally certain you are one of the two burglars who have operated in that district, and Detectives Tunney, Clark, O'Connor anM Kennedy have done splendid work in capturing you and verifying your activities. Your methods were ingenious and In many cases novel, so, for obvious reasons, I shall not mention them. But you are clearly one of the men who menace the safety of this community of homes and It is my duty to put you away so finally that our citizens need fear you no more. I therefore sentence you to forty-two years itf Sing Sing State Prison." Frederick Huttenlocker, 24 years ol age, of 240 McCormick avenue, was senl to Sing Sing for three years and- eight months this morning for and Judge Dike gave him a sound "lecture about his lost opportunities, seems that the youth.

-comes from a-very. cool', family, and about four years ago he received a good-sized legacy from his fa ther's -estate. He ran through with it ana then Degan to commit burglaries. One ef those to get a long sentence from Judge Dike this morning was Costa Keffalas, a young Greek, convicted of burglary and grand larceny. He got a minimum sentence of ten years and a maximum ot fifteen years in Sing Sing.

Harry Morman. 23 years of age, got seven years and nine months for a conviction of an assault upon 15-year-old Tlllle Seaman. When Judge Dike had finished with burglars he announced that he intended to make another crime that of horse stealing very unpopular in Brooklyn among the criminal gentry by gradually" increasing tne sentences, one after the other, as convicted horse thieves were brought before him. until he had reached the maximum or horse stealing had been abandoned as unprofitable. He spoke to this effect to Charles Rogers, 40 years of age, and Lawrence Dunnlgan, 38 years of age.

These two men were Indicted for the crime, and It Is said that the former stole a horse and wagon from John Cassidy on March 13. Dunnlgan's offense was against Henry Koch. Their attorneys thought they ought to be let off with a suspended sentence, but Judge Dike didn't. He sent them to Sing Sing for four years and six months, and the next horse thief that cornea before him will get It a bit longer.

He and Senator McCarren Picked as the Two Men Who Get What They Want. ASSEMBLY CLERK A NAPOLEON His Organizing Genius Just Beginning to Be Appreciated Some Things. He Has Done. (Special to the Eagle.) Albany. April 19 A few days ago a party of legislators, nearly a dozen in all.

three senators and the rest assembly men, were discussing legislative affairs when one of them asked the question: "Who are the most influential men In Albany?" Asked to be more specific, he framed his question in this way: "If you had a measure which you wished to pass, what two men would you regard as the most valuable allies or the most dangerous opponents?" It was arranged that the twelve men should write their answers on slips of paper. Eight of them wrote: "Senator McCarren and Ray B. Smith." The other votes were scattering. Grady receiving three votes, Wadsworth three, Raines two. Merritt two, and Harvey Htnman one.

Those who had voted for others than McCarren and Smith, after a brief discussion, admitted that they believed the eight were right. Nothing could have shown hiore forcibly the present situation at the State Capitol than this unanimous agreement of men, most of whom are believed to understand "what Is going on." This is especially true when the fact Is recalled that the senator selected Is not even a member of the majority, and not even the titular leader of the minority; while the man selected as the dominating personality of the Assembly Is not a member of that body, but its hired clerk. A year ago this young man's name would not have been mentioned as even a factor. Here are some of the opinion expressed of Ray Smith by men who have made legislative and political affairs their life study: "He has the greatest organizing mind In the Republican party In this Btate." If he lives five years he will be the next real boss of the Republican party in New York. "His work Is the most finished product In the way of far-sighted planning I have ever seen." 'His Influence already exceeds that of Francis Hendricks In Central New York, and It is only a question of a short time when he will control the Republican State Committee." It Is only natural to inquire what Smith has done to earn these high opinions for sagacity and shrewdness.

His concrete accomplishments are not sufficient to warrant the opinion. They are naturally limited in scope by the nature of his of fice. It has been those accompl'shments. however, which have awakened the legislature to the fact that he haa the real dominating personality In manv other crean for which has previously been given to others. Early In the present session Smith suggested to Wadsworth the desirability of amending and recodifying the Assembly rules.

There was no opposition at that time, and Smith suaeested "mm. nht changes." These "slight changes'' enabled the Speaker and his friends to defeat the Governor's direct primaries bill without giving It a chance for passage. They were followed In the Senate and the measure on which the Governor centered his energy and artlvitv for the ses sion was killed by a simple vote to sus tain tne report of a standina committee at a time it could not have beeft passed even If Its supporters had had the necessary votes. How Smith saw what was coming so far ahead as the middle of January Is the thing people here are puz- Jiing over. By the same slight changes.

Smith made It possible for the rules committee to take charge of legislation any time It seems advisable. Instead of during the latft ten days of the session, as was formerly the practice. It. was under the rules devised by Smith that the rules committee took charge this year a week earlier than usual and It was under the Smith rules that it was made impossible for the Assembly to take a bill away from rules without 100 votes, "a two-thirds vote of the entire Assembly." After the defeat of the Governor's direct primary bill, the men who had accomplished It began to consider the probability of an extra session, and what matters the Governor was likely to ask them to act upon, if be decided to call such a session. The leaders do not want a special session.

"Is the any way that we can shut him oil from calling us together as he did last year?" was the question they asked each other. There was no satisfactory answer until the question was put up to Smith. "Easiest thing in the world." said Smith. "Find out what he is likely to have on his mind and appoint legislative committees to investigate the questions and report back next year." The simplicity of this plan appealed to the leaders and committees are about to be appointed to "Investigate" the New York City Charter, the Public Service amendments and the general subject of direct primaries. If the Governor should convene the Legislature and ask It to act on any of these subjects, the answer will be ready at hand: "We are already dealing with these things in what seems to us the best way." Other similar things might be related, but these were the matters which waked the Legislature to the fact that Ray B.

Smith was one of the ablest men the state has to deal with. In the light of the knowledge of those accomplishments past events began to take on a new aspect. It was recalled that two years ago, when the Legislature appeared to be in a hopeless deadlock, It was Ray Smith who was the speaker's confidential adviser In the matter of the reapportionment of the state Into senatorial districts, and it was under the persuasion and advice of Ray Smith that the speak er finally yielded his nolnt. it was recalled that the telephone and telegraph amendment to the public service law was beaten In the Assembly witn naraiy a whisper and that Smith came from Syracuse, where, the opposition to the measure apparently found Its center. It was recalled that Smith had suggested and proposed constitutional amendment re leasing subway bonds from tne rew iora City debt limit, whereby the water bonds of cities of the third class were likewise released.

It is this feature of the amendment which makes practically cer tain the passage of the resolution this year. But over and above all these concrete instances It has suddenly dawned on the minds of legislators that it is very difficult to recall an Instance when Smith had helped them with a bill that it had failed of passage, and when he had advised against a. bill, that it had passed. This sort of evidence Is growing on the minds of the assemblymen daily. New Instances to fit the theory that the clerk has to be reckoned with are accumulat ing rapidly as the different legislators go over the records.

Usually It Is interest ing to watch the face of a man in tne act of searching the past for instances. First comes the puzzled look and the: Let me see. Two years ago naa a bill to etc. Then the breaking of recollection over the troubled face. "By That's right.

I remember Smith told me. etc." It Is the cumula tive effect of these instances which PROF. CHRISTIE FACES BOGUS CHECK CHARGE Same Man Who, as St. Francis College Instructor, Was Accused by Regents. OLDER CASE STILL PENDING.

Teacher Denies Trying to Swindle Butcher He Is Held in Default of $500 Bail. Charles C. Christie, who was professor of French in St. Francis' College for years and who is now waiting trial the Court of Special Sessions on the charge that he violated the State University law by providing candidates for regents' certificates with false certificates of their proficiency In French, was arrested again last night by Detectives Roddy and Murray of the local headquarters staff on a charge of passing worthless checks. The specific complaint was that of the professor's fcutcher, T.

Knudson of 199 Court street, who said that Christie got a receipted bill for meat delivered, and $10.69 In cash from him in exchange for a check on the Brooklyn branch of the Corn Exchange bank, which proved to be worthless. Mr. Christie says his home is at 276 Warren street, but he drifted away from there some days ago and the detectives had been looking for him since. He was found passing the corner of iwenty-inira street and Fifth avenue, Manhattan, last nieht bv the detectives who were seeking him, and who probably got a tip about his movements from some false inena. The officers had been piqued over the actions of the professor, who is 58 years old and a bachelor.

He had made an affidavit In the case of William J. Kearney, the mathematics professor of the same college, who was arrestea at about the same time as Christie, charged with havina given a young medical stu dent, named DIYoanna, a certificate of his proficiency in mathematics. The case of Kearney came up ten days ago before Magistrate Tlghe in the Adams street court and Christie was not there to give the testimony that was expected of him. And Do Yoanna, the medical student from the Long Island College Hospital fresh-amn class recanted his former story under oath, so that the evidence against Kearney was in Bum; clem and the mag trate discharged Kearney from custody. There is now pending before Magistrate Tiehe a motion for the Issuance of a war rant for the arrest of young DIYoanna for perjury.

The motion was made by Assistant District Attorney amitn. Professor Christie had been expected, as has been said, at the hearing, but he was not there and the detectives could not find him again until last night. He semed to be surprised over his arrest, and declared that there was really no ground for the butcher complaint, tor he had been assured that the check was good or he would not have offered it. The check, he said, had been drawn to his order by W. J.

Dillon, and he had no reason to believe that Dillon intended to swindle him. He had given It to the butcher on the understanding that it was good. The butcher does not think this, for be got a letter from Christie after Christie got the money, in which he said that the check, he had found out, was worthless, and that he would redeem it with cash If Mr. Knudson would only hold It for a few days. But.

Mr. Knudson bad not held It. and had tound out for himself that the check was bad. Christie put in a formal plea of not guilty when he was arraigned before Magistrate O'Reilly In the Adams street wourt this morning, charged with larceny, and he was held in default of (500 ball for a hearing on the 21st Instant.
