Just what fate is to overtako Brooklyn's "Hooker Assemblymen" who aro up for re-nomlnatlon will soon be known, (or the Democratic Asaembl conventions will be held to-night and the Republican on Friday night.

Then and then only will te known Just how deep the resentment Is in Brooklyn against the members ot the Legislature that were Hooker's defenders at a time when he most, needed them to prevent being removed from his judicial position by the concurrent vote of tiiat body. In order that the voters, and particularly the delegates to the Assembly conventions from the various districts, may not forget these men the following list will come In handy; Thomas P. Reilly, Democrat, Third Otto G. Foelker, Republican, Fifth District. James J.

Byrne, Democrat, Ninth District. Oscar L. Thonet, Republican, Twelfth District. Thomas P. Mathews, Democrat, Thirteenth District.

Charles H. Francisco, Republican, Twenty-first District. It certainly cannot be amiss, on tho eve of the Assembly district conventions, to review the public record of these men and see just how their affiliations run and judge what led up to their action at the special session of the Legislature in July last, which was -convened for the purpose of taking action unon draughtsman Joseph Brady, 1070 Third avenue, jiiinnattan.

Washington, October 11 The thirty-first annual convention of the American Bankers Association was opened In the new National Theater here to-day with more than two thousand members present. Standing during the invocation of the Rev. Dr.

McKim, the bankers repeated the words of the Lord's Prayer. At its conclusion, welcoming addresses were made by John Joy Edson, president of the local Bankers Association and Commissioner MacFarland of the district government. The bankers applauded the mention of President Roosevelt's name as signifying civic honesty. Responding to the welcome, President E. F.

Swinney, of the association, declined the "keys of the city" on behalf of his brother bankers, to keep their reputations inviolate should things be missing after they had gone. The convention enthusiastically adopted a resolution thanking President Roosevelt for his action in bringing about peace between Russia and Japan. Thf resolution was presented by former Representative C. A. Pugsley of Peekskill, N.

who said In explanation that where a man had wrought a great deed In a great way, was deserving of great credit. He believed that It was eminently fitting thalf the bankers convention should pause In Its deliberations to express its appreciation of the magnificent work of President Roosevelt In the interest of peace. The resolution extends the thanks of the association to the President for hiB untiring efforts "In the interest of humanity and civilization which were so abundantly crowned with success in the treaty of peace of Portsmouth, which has restored tranquillity to Russia and Japan and has made for the greater civilization and betterment of mankind." The resolution was seconded by Mr. Jennings of Florida, a relative of William J. Bryan, whose words moved the hearty applause of the convention.

"We love peace," he said, "and we love the President. I would not feel satisfied to remain silent and hear words of patriotism that thrill all Americana without rising here to second this resolution and move for its unanimous adoption." President Swinney remarked that It would be more appropriate to take a rising vote. The resolution was unanimously adopted. Secretary Shaw's Address. Leslie M.

Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury, was introduced for an address on "Trade Expansion" Just as the convention regained Its composure from the "peace" incident. Ho said in part: "The nations of earth sell to each other $10,000,000,000 worth of merchandise per annum, one-eighth of which originates in the United States, and one-ninth of this grand established a special telf-pfione service to the Brooklyn stat on of the Lniud Ftates eath'-r lam F.

That he did not appear to mindt the fact that his vote would aid Hooker? in keeping his seat on tho Appellate Division of the Supreme Ccurt in the Second Department, in which he. Dale, would frequently be called upon to plead for clients, was-ap-parent when he made a speech at the -trial alleging that the acts charged against. Hooker were no more serious than most '4s-" semblymen were guilty of repeatedly. Upon this theory he voted for Hooker.

Perry, Dowllng and Pendry, three of tho Republicans on tho list, have some, claim to distinction, even if they have none to re-nomination. The first two have served several years and have yet to show any other-than a party bias or a willingness to obey the party whip, to whatever end it might: crack. Pendry was at one time a. hors doctor, which is an eminently respectable profession. Recently ho gave up hia veterinary practice for the study of law, in which there Is also an opportunity for eminence, and he has been admitted to the praoUc of law.

Charles H. Francisco, the last Republican on the list, was not present much of the of the extra session, but he was there when It came time to vote for the rescue of Hooker. He was an out-and -out Hooker saying that he would vote to dismiss the charges if no other man in the legislature did so. John Wolf Is a friend and adherent of Senator Hascnllug. He joined with singleness of purpose the other Brooklyn "Hooker Assemblyman" in rescuing Hooker from' The) decidedly dangerous position in which had been' placed.

That the Hooker Issue will not down, andl is more than likely to be a disturbing and disquieting clement in the coming sessldn ot the legislature Is now considered certlin.

yer. At least he was once a law clerk In the office of Colonel Frank Sperry. The three Democrats in the list, who foiled1 Foelker. Byrne. Mathews and Kava-naugti, were frankly for Hooker, although they did not give any especially good reason for their vote whatever their thoughts were.

Oscar L. Thonet was a disappointment to his anti-Hooker friends, who really thought from his record that he would do better by the Twelfth Assembly District in the Hooker matter than he did. Before his vote was cast for Hooker he stood a good chance for and had a good claim upon a renomination, as he was instrumental in pushing through a bill to require the vestlbuling of the surface electric cars in the greater city. That AMUSEMENTS. I.

right. The question is before the corporation cnunse! for an opinion. The permission AMUSEMENTS. The trial room at local police headquarters was crowded with delinquent policemen this morning, for Deputy Commissioner Farrell had a fat calendar to consider. Once more the trial room was a clearing house for debts, for nix of the officers were before Mr.

Farrell for the crime of owing money and falling to pay it. One of the men had a narrow escape from criminal prosecution, for he paid with a check that was no good, and Mr. Farrell read him a sharp lesson on the evil of having no money behind his bank drafts. "You've bad a narrow escape, my man," said the Deputy Commissioner. "You must naver do that again." The culprit had promised to be real good and had agreed to reserve a chunk of bis monthly pay to give to his creditor for some time to come.

Two diamond rings figured in the proceedings before the Deputy Commissioner, sparklers that have dazzled many a fair maid on post as they glittered and shed an iridescent luster all about. Borough Inspector Cross and Deputy Commissioner Far-xell were quite Interested in the rings. They were of the installment variety and by the "way the average policeman is one of the hest customers of the peripatetic jeweler but the intended owners had forgotten to pay. One of the culprits said that when-be bought the ring for something like $190 some years ago he was inexperienced and did not really know the limitations of the pay of a member of the police force. He had given the jeweler man something like $100 and there, was still balance of about $90, which he really could not pay just then.

Inspector Cross Is bit dainty about bis own clothing Bnd tils Jewelry he likes to see the patrolmen prosperous but It wns clear ha did not believe It risht for his me w-wlng for gems and he frowmid at Smith from Classon' avenue. The culprit taught the frown. "Pay Isn't much," said Mr. Smith, apologetically, i "And domestic expenses oomo high. I'd like-to pr.y bill and Just as soon as I got the money I will pay it.

But I need "You've had time enough," commented Deputy Commissioner Farrell. "I shall adjourn decision in this case and In the meanwhile you must make some arrangement with this man to pay for the diamond." The next case was thauoH MuHonry of Adams street, who also bad a ring. Hut ilr. McHenry fs on the sick list and ht ease was not fully entered into. According to Jeweler Kalbow, who needPd the money, Mr.

McHenry had forgotten all about the little bill, but he still had the fine ring. Of course nothing could be done In the absence of the person complained against and the hearing was postponed for a week-Inspector Cross was In the room to prosecute a sergeant, for falling to make an Inspection of the police station and enter the fact on the blotter, as required by the relies and by one of Mr. Cross1 own orders; against a tidy young i roundsman, acting sergeant, who had failed In the very same thing, and against a most slatternly roundsman who had had the nerve to visit the inspector's own office in a spotted blouse, with faded chevrons and without his revolver. The Inspector proved his cases ar.alnst all of them. He had been floating about the tJucenB district one day stirring up the men at the desk and had caught the sergeant and the tidy acting sergeant napping.

Deputy Commissioner Farrell looked at the men with much official severity and said that the cases were grave and that he would reserve decision In them. The untidy roundsman had sent the blouse to the tailor's for cleansing, general repairs and new chevrons and he wa.3 quite proud of It this morning. "Commissioner," said he. strutting In front of the bench, "this la the blouse. As for the revolver.

I was called suddenly to tho Inspector's office and really 1 forgot to put It in my pocket." "I thought that was the coat," commented Mr. Cross. "It looks like It; but you've had It cleaned. The sleeves are frayed, but you've had them sewed up, too." The observant Inspector picked up tho man's arms and closely examined tho cuffs. 'They are frayed yet," admitted the untidy one.

"You are too old a policeman," said Mr. Farrell to the roundsman, "to be excused. I ll have to fine you," but he reserved tho matter of fine until he could think It over. A policeman who was In tho court room for having lost his shield was really complimented by Mr. Farrell.

He came from the Greenpoint precinct and he sold he had lost the shield whllo helping firemen getting out thoir hose at a firo. "You are the first man who ever came before me with a record of eight years without a complaint. I'll dismiss this one." Folicoinan Vance of the Fourth avenue station, who had his clothing destroyed In a fight In which ho was assaulted by some toughs, wns charged with having worn another officer's clothes. He explained why and as Captain EvanB gave tho yountj patrolman a fine send-off Mr. Farrell dismissed that complaint, too.

MATINEES ORPHEUftl DAILY lng developed. The eyes of the world are upon them. The merchant nations of Europe know where they are located and they are establishing banks and warehouses within them, and they have already established regular and fast lines of steamers to them; The United States has neither banks nor commission houses, nor warehouses In these ports, nor has it means of communication, with them, except through old. worn-out, dilapidated ships, sailing under foreign flags and making eight or ten knots an hour. "The United States Imports a million dollars worth per day of tropical and seml-troplcal products.

It sends to Europe, In excess of everything we receive from Europe, a million dollars a day In raw materials and food products such a3 I have described; and Europe In turn sends a million a day to the ports of South America, South Africa, and the islands adjacent. I do not need to tell you of tbe great number of ships that sail the triangle. They start from home with a cargo of finished products which they leave In those southern ports, then load with coffee, rubber, hemp, sisal, mahogany, dye woods and fruits for the United States, then take a load of our raw materials, cotton, copper, petroleum and food product, back to Europe. "I have been many times taken to task for remarks like these. I have received letters, for Instance, from certain commercial associations, the principal officers of which are interested In foreign steamship lines, calling my attention to the fact that means are at hand for carrying to these Southern ports all the merchandise that America sends thither.

Gentlemen, I have never taken the position that what, goods we ship to South America do not ultimately reach those ports. I have sometimes called attention, however, to the fact that the quickest way to go to South America, or to send mall to South America, or to ship freight to South America, and the most usual way. is to send first to Europe and thence to the ports of destination. A large chare of our paltry commerce with those countries does actually go by way of Europe, rather than In these old scows, owned by the men who take the position that because, there are ways In which goods can be sent them-e, therefore no occasion exists for improving the means of communication. "I am also aware, for my attention has been called therto repeatedly by letter, and more frequently still by editorial comment, that a representative of the Department of Commerce and Labor, sent to South America for tho purpose of Investigating this subject, has reported that there are means of communication between the United States and South America.

I have fead his reports, and I beg my critic's pardon, for the distinguished college professor does not take the position' assumed by the steamship companies, that existing means of communication are satisfactory, or that they should not be Improved. Permit a few extracts from Professor Hutchinson's report: Suffice It to say that the service from Europe Is carried on by lai'Ka and fust atenmers, thoroughly equipped In every way for frelKht, passenger and nail buetneiw, running on ee.curate sehrdule. time, and giving regular communication hMween Brazil and Europe, in each direction, at least six timed per month, while the steamers from the I'nlted States, are small, and plow, have only Inferior accommodation for passengers, and. with the exception of single salting each month, are more or lees Irregular on to time of departure and arrival. It Is thus often possible to pet much, nnlekrr delivery of nn order from England or Europe than from the United States.

"Possibly some ono will say, 'Who cares particularly for the American manufacturer? It is his business, not Yes, but It Is uiy business also. I own some farms In Iowa and 1 want my tenants to feed tho men who manufacture for theso markets. I am selfish. In faei, I am so selfish that I desire every Induct ry under our flag to prosper, and I hopo I am wine enough to know that no one class of American people over did prosper except when all our people prospered. I hope I am wire to know that the prosperity of any one cla38 means the prosperity of all.

"The United States Is the owner of the Philippine Islands, and these possessions, plus the Panama Canal, plus a merchant marine, would Insure to the American people somewhat, more than thoir present 10 per cent, of the one thousand millions of trade washed by the shores of tho Pacific. Stopped at Coast Line. "We occupy the hest position on the map. We have the safest and the most convenient form of money in the world. We speak the language of commerce.

Our farms produce more than tho farms of any other country. Our mines yield gold literally by the carload, silver by the train load, and there Is unloaded on the shores of a single commonwealth more Iron ore than any other country produces. Our forests yield one hundred million feet of lumber for every day of the calendar year. Our factories turn out more finished products than all the factories of Great Britain and Oermany combined by more than three thousand millions every twelve months. We transport this matchless product of farm and factory, forest and mine, from the Interior to the sea at ouc-thlrj what similar services cost anywhere else beneath the skies.

Wo carry It from point to point along the const In better vessels, on quicker time, and at cheaper rates than others. But at our coast line we are brought to an abrupt halt. Here we are no longer Independent. Our foreign commerce Is four times as large as forty years ago, but we carry In our own ships only one-third as many gross tons as forty years ago. We have protected and encouraged every Interest but our merchant marine, and every protected Interest has flourished.

We have every facility for international commerce except International merchants, international bankers, and an International merchant marine. Shall we not havo these? I am not urging ship subsidies. I sm speaking of results, not of methods. If wo will but tako advantage of our opportunities we will send these products of farm and factory under every sky and Into every port, and make our financial centers the clearing houses of at least a fraction of tho world's trade." Frank A. Vanderlip followed Secretary Shaw.

The ease with which tho financial world withstood the strain of a war wi-lch eo3t the combatant nations $2,000,000,000 Mr. Vanderlip said, he believed was duo to the greatly Increased production of gold In recent years. To this Increased production he also gave the credit for the recovery from Industrial depression during the past three years. At tbe same time he expressed the belief thnt In this very Incrense there was a possible future disturbance of values. Should the present rate of production continue he believed tho volume of money In the world would be doubled In twenty years with tho result that prices of many commodities would be greatly Increased possibly doubled.

While the Increase In the supply of money would tend to advance tho prleo of real property, however, the price of an obligation repayable In money would not advance. Thus all persons having a fixed Income, persons receiving a fixed salary, or wage earners generally, would be nt a disadvantage, for their Incomes would not. tend lo Incrense ns rapidly as tho purchasing power Of their Incomes decreased. Ho declared the outlook at the present lime to bo very bright, but gave warning I hut almost as surely there were dangers lurking In the situation. "Should a stock mnrket rpeoulallnn start from tho present high level or prices In the face of Ihe extraordinary demand for enpltnl and money which crops and business nllke are milking." nald he, "ihe reult might rasllv ho temporary disaster.

All hough there may he many favorable fenlures to Iho outlook. It Is no time for prudence lo be cast In Ihe wind; no time for speculative commitments which would yield dluuater If temporary reverses came; no tlino for lnxness In nny of the forms of business prudence dud conncrv- OllbUi," THE GIRL wthe CLOUDS Jiyde Qehmans Matinee Every Dny SHEAN and WARKEN JOH T.

International commerce of the, round earth. Whllo. the eighty and more commercial oeimtrlea are selling, the one to the other, merchandise worth $10,000,000,000, the American people sell to each other merchandise worth practically $25,000,000,000.

These stupendous and incomprehensible figures make some of us proud, some arrogant. They should make us all thoughtful, and prevent any of us frem becoming recklessly critical. "Wo point with pride to our export trade of a billion and a half, and with our thumbs In the armboles of our waistcoats we contemplate our skill and foresight and our ability as International merchants. Will I be pardoned if I suggest that this export trade Is due In no very large degree to our skill either aa international bankers or as International merchants? "We grow three-fourths of the cotton of the world, and there being no other limitless supply, the world comes to us for it. It conies willingly and it comes In its own ships.

"The world never has six months food in store. If harvests should cease to follow seedtime for six months, the world would starve. Again, the United States is fortunate, for her farms annually yield largely In excess of what eighty million people can consume, and, as In the days of Joseph, a starving world goes to Egypt, or to the United States, or wherever there Is an excess of corn or other fcod. and now, as then. It provides Its own conveyances.

It requires no international merchant to sell raw cotton to countries which grow none, or food prod-nets to people who produce less than they consume. Great Production of Copper. "Wo produce 400.000 tons of copper per annummore than hnlf of the world'B aggro-gate. Of this we consume somewhat over 200,000 tons and export nearly as much. This being tho source of greatest supply, the world again comes for our surplus, and conies In Its own ships.

It requires no International merchant to sell copper. "We produce 73 per cent, of the world's supply of refined petroleum. It would seem to require neither an International merchant nor a merchant marine to market our surplus petroleum. Tire Standard Oil Company, however. In Its International business, has found it convenient to provide ships.

"Of our aggregate exports, about consists of raw cotton, food products, petroleum product, crude copper, lumber and other raw materials and crude article.

The above letter from "East New York" suggests a hint that should be taken by all persona interested in civil Service matters. First Ret the charter and the civil service rules as published in the Brooklyn Eagle Library.

Study these carefully as the parties referred to in this letter have done. The Information that we work hard to get stands by us the longest.

Pally Reader There is really only one grade for assistant engineers. See rules, pago 54.

There ura many salaried. Young men without practical experience get their names on the eligible list and mav then be aooolnted at minimum salaries. Later on they necure promotions aa they gain experience. That is the theory. Favoritism really has little where there is real work to be done.
