Interment at the convenlence of the family. negotiations for a revision of the Concordat. Senor Calbeton was Minister of Public Works until the recent reorganization of the Cabinet, when he was succeeded by Senor Gasset. The interest of the Vatican in the prothe association bill, is due to the fact posed ca legislation in Spain, particularly that the latter measure is directed unquestionably to the regulation and restriction of the religious orders. While it will provide for the control, doubtless, of secular societies in the matter of their activities and rule property they are allowed to own, religious orders are at present exempt from certain limitations imposed upon non-religious organizations.

possible that the Spanish legislation will be found to have been modeled after the Bill on Associations adopted by the government of France in 1901, four years preceding the separation of the church and state. The French law was designated as an act to place the religious orders under strict regulations of law and to limit their possession of property. OBITUARY Fanny Jones. (Special to The Eagle.)

Maddox, Justice. Monday, January 9, 1911. Max Goldbers, argon, BIG DIAMOND SWINDLE WITH FORGED CHECKS Moses Davis, Alleged "Fence," Arrested, and Police Are After Expert Thief. MARKED MONEY USED IN DEAL. Aaron Levin Surprised by Being Offered, He Alleges, Gems That Were Stolen From Him.

Moses Davis, at 25 Charged goods, with, receiving, stolen, Morrell street, and reputed to be wealthy, was arraigned in the New Jersey avenue police court to-day, the first prisoner in connection with a diamond swindle that has Brooklyn worried the Manhattan diamond for dealers several of months. Thad chief culprit, the man who procured the diamonds from the dealers, has yet been arrested, but the police expect to have him before to night. When they get this man he will be charged with grand larceny by least five diamond dealers. He is a very interesting sort of person, who arrived in this country only a few years ago, Up to a few months ago he was an humble jeweler's mechanic, but an expert in his line. He had an extensive acquaintance in the diamond trade.

He has a wife and three children, and lived in Brownsville until the time he decided that that place was not good for him. to topher Samuel street, Miller, is a one of jeweler the at victims. 120 Chris- He appeared in the New Jersey avenue police court to-day and along with Aaron Levin, of 101 Forsythe street; Morris Sutteroff, of 64 Forsythe street; Abraham Averbach and Hyman Edelstein, of 74 Forsythe street, corroborated the complaint of receiving stolen goods against Davis. Miller, the four Manhattan diamond dealers, and several others in Brownsville, were fleeced out of gems, the loss of each man ranging from $1,000 to $1,800. The man for whom the police are looking "purchased" diamonds from these dealers.

He gave in payment checks which were spurious and which amounted to several thousands of dollars in the aggregate. It was learned at the bank that the "diamond speculator's" balance when the checks began to come in was $1.38. Detectives Dukeshire and Tunney of the Detective Bureau, found that the "speculator" had a vanished. He was followed to several cities in the East, but finally all trace of him was lost until to-day, when his whereabouts was definitely learned. For four weeks Dukeshire and Tunney hunted for the diamonds which the muchwanted man had disposed of.

They traced them, it is alleged, to Moses Davis. Davis is a sweater maker by occupation. He has two sons and three daughters, and all of them wear many diamonds. One of the daughters was married recently, and the display of jewelry on that occasion dazzled the spectators. When Dukeshire felt certain that Davis had in his possession the stolen diamonds he used Levin, one of the victims, as a "stool." After getting an introduction, Levin arranged to buy some diamonds from Davis.

He was given marked money and was surprised to be offered diamonds which he says are the very ones that the much-wanted man stole from him. When Dukeshire and Tunney arrested Davis, the latter had in his possession $2,500 worth of diamonds. He had them in his pockets. The five jewelers who charge Davis with receiving stolen goods all identified some of the stones found on Davis as having been stolen from them, and made affidavits to that effect when Davis was arraigned before Magistrate Dodd. Pending further developments in the case, Magistrate Dodd held Davis for a further hearing.

POLICEMEN SOUGHT SHELTER Commissioner Reynolds Fines Sergeant One Day's Pay. If It Wasn't Too Cold for Lovemaking, It Wasn't for Patrol Tuty. Police Sergeant Thomas K. Hastings of the Prospect Park station appeared before Fourth Deputy Police, Commissioner Reynolds at the street headquarters yesterday afternoon charged with failing to properly patrol his post, standing in a shelter booth and failing to enforce discipline against two other policemen, othy J. Fitzpatrick and Edward J.

Ryan, also standing in the booth, shortly before 10 o'clock the night of December 4. The commissioner asked Hastings why he went into the booth and in reply the sergeant said that it was a cold night and Fitzpatrick had coffee and sandwiches which Ryan brought. They all went into the booth to divide the sandwiches Ryan brought and drink the hot coffee. "Was it very cold that night, as the policemen state?" asked the commissioner of Captain Miles O'Reilly, the whitehaired veteran policeman? "Well, love is warm, perhaps, commissioner, but I noticed two couples sitting quietly o'n the benches near by. If it was not too cold nor stormy for them it shouldn't have been too cold for the policemen." "Commissioner.

it was freezing that night," maintained Hastings again, "for the next day we had the first snow of the season." The commissioner concurred with the aged police captain, however, and said, find you guilty, sergeant, when it wasn't to too cold for lovers to be out, and fine you one day's pay."

HOSPITALS CROWDED; PATIENTS ON FLOORS Facilities of Brooklyn Institutions Not Equal to Demands of Sickness. FUNDS FOR ADDITIONS NEEDED Deputy Charities Commissioner Fogarty Says We Are Living in Past Generation in One Respect.

According to Deputy Commissioner of Charities Fogarty, the accommodations of at hospital is castaone concerned, Brooklyn is living, in a past generation. city kept pace with the growth" in the matter of increasing, the hospital year its facilities, and institutions at this are much overcrowded. Mr. Fogarty that the Cumberland Street Hospitai, which is situated in a particularly congested district, is no better fitted, from the standpoint of room, to care for the many persons who apply there for treatment at this season than it was forty years ago, when it was built. Twice the Board of Estimate has been asked for an appropriation for the purpose of enlarging the Cumberland Street Hospital, and an application is about to be made again.

An application was made for funds to build to the hospital in Mayor McClellan's term, but he vetoed the appropriation. It was near the end of his regime and his argument was that the next Board of Estimate would attend to it. The new board has not done so. With $300,000 in hand, a new wing could be added to the Cumberland Street Hospital and a nurses' home erected. At present, when the cold and inclement weather swells the army of those applying for relief many of the patients in the hospital are obliged to sleep on the floors.

There are several sleeping on the floor in the surgical ward now, and sometimes the number of sick who have to make the best of it under such conditions amounts to from twenty to forty. The sick are also sleeping on the floor at the Kings County Hospital, although that institution 1S better off because an addition to the building which will accommodate about 150 extra patients will be opened in the future. But it will be six months, it is believed, before the doors of the new wing are thrown open and in the meanwhile the hospital must get along as best it can. Another institution which is overcrowded is the Home for the Aged and Infirm in Flatbush. According to the Deputy Commissioner of Charities there are at times as many as sixty or seventy persons sleeping on the floor there.

"Brooklyn is growing very rapidly," said Mr. Fogarty, In commenting on existing conditions. "Year after year the congestion in this borough increases and our hospitals need to be put, 011 the most modern basis to keep pace with the demands made upon them. An appropriation of $300,000 would be sufficient to put the Cumberland Street Hospital on a proper working basis. Every effort is now being made to the end that the facilities of the Cumberland Street Hospital may be increased.

Until the money necessary to enlarge the plant is obtained nothing can be done to remedy the overcrowding. It ought not to be necessary for those needing medical attention to sleep on the floor. Put yourself 1 a the position of a sick person. If had no better bed than the floor you would realize what it 1s." WAITER BECOMES INSANE. Is Serving Customers When Dementia Overtakes Him.
