DEPARTMENT EASY George Waters. Who Gave Fieti-io js Aidrers. Said to Come Troni ''So- Prominent" Family. ci lib Maim Hon are anxious to hear from people who have bee-i swindled by a youtiff man. well urevsed.

who claimed lost was the colic -tor for the "Fir-t Wi.r.1 National icratle Club," and who has been getting contributions from the charitable for "coal funds" and other charities of the organisation. The swindler was orrtsted la yesterday afternoon by Detective Sullivan of the Adams street station as he was about to approach Julian P. Fairchild. vice president of the Kings County Trust Company, for a contribution, of flj to a dinner fund. He had telephoned to tbe company's offices asking for aa appointment, which was given to hire, aud the detective was waiting for blm.

He was wanted for bavins trimmed the bead of oua of tbe big Icpartuient stores, out of $15 on a "coal fund" plea. The prisoner told the police that be was George Waters, of 63 Nevlus street. I Iheie Is no such uumbcr on Ncvlns i s. red, and tbe detectives think that George Waters is not his name. He is 22 years old and wore such good clothing that the linprossiou got abroad that he had been making all sorts of easy money by bis scheme to raise tbe wind.

The fact that a lawyer of some prominence called up the police last night and said that the young roan was a sou of a family socially prominent in the Bay Hidge section, and that he bad been retained to appear for him, also excited some interest. But the prisunor was not represented in court this morning and It Is believed that the "socially prominent family" in Bay Ridge bad decided to leave him to his fate. According to a sworn complaint in the Adams 3treet court this morning. Waters to charitable head of one of tho Full on Blreol department stores on the 13th iust. aud totd him a long story of the distress of tbe poor lu "the First Ward." Tho approach of a cold snap had tuado the condition of the impoverished and out of work something awful, nud the First Ward National Democratic Club, of which "The Hon.

Peler Justus Fogarty" was tbe almoner, us a nicely engraved card Indicated, was trying to increase Us coal fund, so that every man. woman and child in the "First Ward would aL least Keep warm. A check was duly drawn and given to tha young man. who cashed It. as the police found out later, in Lguor store in Manhattan, the next.

day. Investigation on the part' of the department store iimn showed thnt there was no such organization as named in Brooklyn. Tho "First Ward" la doing very well by its few poor, and there was no "coal fund" known to any of the organizations of tbe district. The matter was reported to the police, and the detectives resolved to look up the young man. They found that there was no First Ward organization of the name, even in Manhattan, and none In Manhattan's old First Ward knew of a "National Democratic Club." Yesterday the young man called up tho nflu-e of the Kings County Trust Company for a contribution to the "dinuer 'und" of the First Ward National Democratic Club, and an appointment was made for I lie stranger.

happened that the check from the department store bad atone through the King3 County Trust Company, and tbe people there were suspicious. Tlio police were notified, and Detective Sullivan was preseut when the young man carne In and made bis "touch." Ho had a receipt ready, signed by "Hon. Peter Justus Fogarty," who is believed to be material only as far as his printed card goes. He is unquestionably "a myth as a human entity," as Sullivan quaintly put It this morning. Waters was arraigned before Magistrate Reynolds in the Adams street court this morning cbargod with petty larceny.

He persisted in his declaration that ho lived at ihe number given on Novina street, and said he was a painter by occupation, and lived for a time with James Graham at 259 Fifty-seventh street. Bay Ridge. Ho declined to tell about his relatives, and, waiving examination, was held for the Court of Special Sessions for trial, in default of $1,000 bail. The police believe that before his trial comes on there will be other complaints agatnst him. WANT CONTRACTS SIGNED.

February 27 Violent earlhouake chocks, which caused n.ll.l r.nir- nmnni 11, i i i Rate to Flatbush Avenue Terminal ON ALL EXPRESS TRAINS. Local chave Is Fire Cents. Thty Go Out Jammed Express Only Partly Filled.

The ruMle Service Commission gave tojay va the question fcf reduction ef fares on etpress 3 nathush Kn New Yort: Mutton. "orre V. S. Will preiid- d. and Informed people of liast New York and Brownsville that every endeavor would be ntnde to give relief as far as politic.

7 lie bearing was basd upon the complaint by former Asemblyman Lcuis Goldstein in December, 1910. Mr. Goldstein reviewed the entire history of Ihe grievance of the people of Hast New York, 6peaklr.g at length. A blil with that object In view was Introduced In the Legislature, by Mr. Goldstein in It'll, and another by Senator O'Brien, in the Senate.

Tho O'Brien bill, which Included all stations between Flatbush aud Kail-load avenues, was passed, and was vetoed by Governor Dix, who wrote a memorandum in wbleb he stated that it was within tbe authority of thn Public service Commission of New York to tive the relief that tho bill tougbt. tuc matter waa takmt mi nr.rA ha uuiK service Commission and sent to Mr. O'Brirn. Then tho railroad eom-IV. voluntaiiiy reduced ii3 tare ou local trains from Railroad and Flat-buib KVcntics, irom lo to i cents.

By this iuue Mr. Goldstein showed that people using express iraius at East New York Bullions were entirely ignored. Since then tho people of East New lork have urged upon the Public Service Conitiiistiiou to order a charge of live cents ou all trains, expreis or local, running between East New York and l''ilbuh avenue stations. -Mr. Goldstein proved by the evidence of inspectors of the Publ.c Service Commission that all local trains runuing between East XV.v York and Flatbush ave- nue are overcrowded, and express trains lit0 average have many vacant seats.

ne yuo.eu dates and flgures to support has statement. 'lho contention of Mr. Goldstein was that il the Long Island Railroad Company would reduce its faro on express tra.us this would Immediately relievo the ouiigcsi.ou, distributing the standing passengers on local trains to express trains wh.ch have sufficient seats to accommodate such passengers. Mr. Goldstein urged upju the eomniisslon lo render a prompt decision in this matter.

Senator Thorborg attended the hearing and gave his views and reasons for the commission acting favorably ou the application. Assemblyman Ingraham informed the commission that his bill ailectuig this matter has been reported out of tho Railroad Committee In the Assembly, and was on for passage on a count in the Assembly. Mr. Ingraham argued that thore was absolutely no defense on the part of the railroad company, and that the legal technical objections raised by the company were merely a su'oter-foge on Its part, and that the Commission should ignore them and grant tho relief thnt the people of East New York are so clearly entitled to. Mr.

Sehrleber, president of the Atlantic Avenue Business Men's Association, told the Commission that he thought it was (i great injustice to the business people, as well as to the working people of East New York, to permit the railroad company to exact 10 cents on express trains which, to a large extent, prohibited the working class from using these trains on account of the price. The hearing was closed by Commissioner Williams, who gave until March 8 to submit briefs. MISS KOHLER MAY TESTIFY Father Believes She Will Appear Against Doyle, After All. Despite his daughter's assertions, made yesterday, that she would refuse to testify in the ease brought against Walter K. Doyle, of 277 Gates avenue, James p.

I There Is an epldecslo of diphtheria among tbe pupils of Public School No. Id, Wilson street, near Lee avenue, and fo rapidly ls the sprer.d'ng that It has been necessary to close two of the classrooms, fumigate thetu and burn th books. It Is said tbat si: ases bvo been discovered by Dr. Cohen of the Board of Health, during the past two weeks. This 1 the second time that tbe people of the Eastern District have been alarmed by the dread d'sease, and many of the parents of tbe ch'ldrcu attending No.

14, arj keeping them at home, rath. than expose them lo lbs peril of contracting the disease. Room 10 is the one in which the recent cases have occurred. This room, with No. 9, which is adjoining, have been closed and six other room lu tbe old school building are not boiug used because of the poor ventilation aad lighting facilities.

What the cause of tbe disease ls, ls not positively known, but many believe that It Is due to tbe manner lu which the buildings on Taylor street have been backed up against the school building because of the Taylor street extension, thus shutting off light and air. With the heavy air and mist of today it was necessary to close six of the rooms In the rear of the building and double up the classes. Kvon with this. It Is necessary to keep the electrlo lights and gas going, so as to make it possible for the children to see to read or write. These rooms that have been closed have only one window In each which Is Insufficient to afford proper light and air.

Dr. Lewis H. Tuthill, tho principal, is of the opinion as are the teachers and others interested In No. 16, that Immediate action should be takeu to have the old structure, which was erected In lSi3, remodeled or a uow structure put up in Its place. John R.

Thompson, a member of the Board of Education, who represents the district, is doing everything In his power to have a resolution introduced into the Board of Education and to the city officials to replace the Wilson street school at once. In tha fall of last year there was an epidemic of diphtheria lu No. 16, and at that time It started In Room 9. The same cotirso of procedure thou was taken, the closing of the room, fumigation and the burning of the books and other sup-piles. At that time the disease was checked before spread, although there was one death as the result of the outbreak.

FOSDICK'S TRIP TO EUROPE He Goes in Interest of Bureau of Social Hygiene. Although It was stated two months ago by Raymond B. Kosdick, former Commissioner of Accounts, that the trip to Europe on which he started then was for the purpose of tak.ng a long rest, it hai been disclosed by John D. Rockefeller, that Mr. Fosdick Is abroad in the Interests of the Bureau of Social Hygiene, of which Mr.

Rockefeller is the founder. Tiio announcement of the real purpose of Mr. Fosdick's trip was made because of tbe recent movement toward the reformation of the New Y'ork police system. Mr. Rockefeller urges that the subject be kept opsu until tbe former Commissioner of Accounts enn complete his European investigation of the police problem.

In a statement issued by Mr. Rockefeller yesterday, he said that the suggestions being made for the reorganization of the police system were various and conflicting, and assorted that there was available little authoritative experience according to which the suggested reforms might be Judged. Ho explained that be believed a study of the problems which hare been solved in tho large cities abroad would be rich in suggestions that would bo helpful here, and stated that, his thought of this had resulted In the decision lo send Mr. Fosdick abroad to study the subiect. "Mr.

Fosdick Is a member of Ihe staff of ihe Bureau of Social Hygiene, and is admirably equipped for Hie task." said Mr. Rockefeller. "lie is enjoying unprecedented facilities for getting full and eiraet information. His work will bo finished and Its results will be published within tbe current year. In the lntere: of a sound, permanent policy, the bureau urges the view that either the entire subject be kept open until this information is accessible, or that any stens now ta'ncn be.

Sri, LIO.N3, Uerjen it, S-3 foe httildina. A'teraard be tat with Jutice Kapper in Part VII. while the latter was naturalizing eliir.ens. Then he talked to an Eagle reporter of the necessity for a new court house and of iits wonder that Borough President Steers had rot made the present building "more livable." Controller Prendergast reached the court house sharply at 9:50 o'clock. He came In with Juftice Stapieton and was at once shown the new arrangement of the Justices chambers.

Then be was taken to the Jury room floor by Justices Crane and Kapper. Attendant John White went along as on etcort. For over half an hour tne Controller and tbe Judges were on their tour of Inspection and th-oy saw among other things the much criticized Jury rooms. Then Justice Crane went on the beuch In Part I and Mr. Treudergest accompanied Justice Kr.pper to Part VII, where there was a big calendar for naturalization.

Tart Y1I abuts on Livingston street, id It never seemed more noisy than during tho tliuo Controller Prendergast was ou the bench with Justice Kapper. Altnough the applieauls and witnesses stood within six feet of the Judge and his visitor the cliDglng bells and street noises made it necessary for Justice Kapper to frequently say: "A Utile louder, pleaso, 1 cannot hear you." Preadcrg-ast Admits Hew Courthouse Is Pressing Need. After witnessing the difficulty of conducting court under such circumstances, Prendergast left the courthouse for his offlee. Before h0 left he said: "There Is no yueatiou but that a new courthouse iB needed iu Brooklyn. The city olltcials have never disputed that.

Kvcryono, however, knows that It has been largely a question of llnance. Tho s.te. selected by tho Judges was deemed to bo very expetisivo ouj and, naturally, this Interfered with the progross of the matter. .1 am sure that wo should now uso every effort to see if a start canuot ue made toward a new building. "But the people must understand that they cannot have a new courthouse a new municipal building and all tBe other things they ara asking for at the same timo.

'lucre is oue puase of this question, however that 1 hav0 never beeu able to understand, aud that is why a better attempt baj not beeu made to make the present courthouse more livable. "This is tha duly of tho Borough President, iu whose charge tbe building ls. In a trip through the courthouse this morning I have seen many things that should Ls changed, and will bo glad myself, to suggest these details. if a court house was started now It would take at least three years to complete it, and 1 can see a great many changes possible, particularly In tho upper part of the building, that would add greatly to the comfort of both Judges aud the people. I will have some suggestions to make now that 1 have seen the conditions that have called for criticism." PRISONER'S HEART TOUCHED.

Alleged Pickpocket Pays Fine of Aged Victim of the Law. After he had been committed to Jail In default of $1,000 bail in the New Jersey avenue police court today, an alleged pickpocket, who described himself as Bcn-iamlu Harris of 271 Pearl street, paid a dollar in order to free another prisoner, The latter was William Breener, an aged man. of 1679 St. John's place, who had been fined $1 because be failed to remove garbage from the front of his house. Breancr was led to the detention pen, weeping bitterly, and Harris inquired what waB the matter.

Wiicn be learned that a dollar would save the man from a cell, he dug down into his pocket, orougut up a big roll of money, aud passed a bill into Brenner's hands. "Say," he admonished Breancr, "if a dollar wlil got you out of this, for pity's sake beat It. 1 wish mine was as easy," Harris was asserted to have caused trouble that came lK-ar creating a riot at the annual ball of the Hulled Italian Societies of Brownsville and East New York, at the Now Palm Garden, Sackmnn street and Liberty avenue, last night. The dancing was at its height when a man shrieked out "Pickpockets!" and gave chase to a young tr.fln. The latter dodgeid through the dancers, reached nil exit, and mane ins way to iiie street.
