ASSEMBLYMAN IS HOPEFUL Colonel William Hester Tell Woy He Favors the Bridge F.aza Site. Assemblyman Frederick Burr of the Xinth District, who introd ued the bill in the Assembly transferring the power of selecting a court house site from the judges to the Board ot Estimate, was bombarded late Saturday afternoou and yesterday with telephone messages urging him lo get the bill out ot the cities committee aud have it acted upon by the Legislature. Mr. Burr said today that many of the physicians residing within the bounds of the Court street site had called him to the tel. phone and particularly urged him to get action on the measure this week in view of toe fact that the Legislature may finish Us work and adjou'n within a very few weeks.

He stated that he believed the Mil lud already been voted out of committee, and added that the first thing he would do when he reached the State, capital tonight would be to Investigate the status of the measure aed put forth every effort to secure its prompt passage. Dr. Georgo W. Brush, chairman of the citizens committee, which is working to secure the selection ot the Bridge plaza site, today eunounced the appointment of tho executive committee of nine aj follows: Jacob C. Klinck, Guy Du Val, Clarence B.

Smith, Thomas P. Peters. R. Walter Creuzb.tur. F.

W. Conn, Elwin S. Piper and Professor Franklin W. Hooper, Dr. Brush, chairman of the Brooklyn League courtnouso committee, and chief executive of the citizens committee, will act as chairman of the executive committee, making Its ninth member.

The committee will endeavor to bring influence to bear upon the judges to convince them of the superiority of the Bridge plaza site over the Court street location. Colonel William Hester's Views on Courthouse Site. Colonel William Hester, when asked to express his views ou the courthouse site controversy, said: "Whenever the question of any public improvement comes up and there Is a difference of opinion in regard lo the manner in which it shall be carried out, there are apt to bo Injected charges of interested motives la the advocacy of tho different methods. In the matter of building a new courthouse, there were three sites proposed, aud a majority of the judges to whom the selccCon was referred, decided upon the plot between Court and Clinton streets aud Living ston and State streets. In the meantime the question of making the approach to the Brooklyn Bridge a credit Instead of an eyesore to the city came up, and an improvement in that section that would beautify the t-Uy was projected.

According to a plan suggested by Bridge Commissioner O'Kceffe, It was proposed to combine the two purposes building a new courthouse aud beautifying the Bridge approach and erect the courthouse on part of this land, so that with tho money necessary to build on the Court and CTnton street plot, both ends would be accomplished. Before the Bridge plan and the proposition to build the courthouse there were brought forth, the plot selected by the judges was acceptable, but the other proposition com- Ing later was so much more advantageous that the possibilities are that moat of tho Judges would now be glad to accept that plan. The fart Is, thai, they are not strenuous about the site they selected They only chose It because at that time it was the most desirable and there was no reason then to think that It was not. But it Ib nlso desirable to have a fine approach to the Bridge. With the Post-office Building, which is to be enlarged, and a few other structures in that neighborhood, the building ot a fine courthouse would make a very creditable approach.

But for this latter proposition personally, would bo perfectly satis-fled with the choice the Judges have mado. As It Is, I prefer that room for the public building upon the Br.dge ap proach bo made Instead of destroying I The following are the members of the 'Special Committee, of the Brooklyn Bar Aesociation, appointed to attend the fu- QL.ri of Mr. Brewster: Charles J.

Tha members of the legislative eom- mittee of tne Brooklyn League believe that they have discovered a Joker lu bill now before the Cities Committee of the Assembly, and known as "An act to amend the Greater New York charter in relation to assessments for local im-proTcmenta." The League committee has gone oa record against the bill, declaring that It apparently renders nugatory the law which provides tiiaf any assessment totaling more than 3 per cent, of the value of the property against which It la charged tray be paid In teu yearly instalments without the accumulation ot penal Interest. The bill Is tin Innocent-looking afair, and although It appeared in the Assembly on February 20 and very soon thereafter In the offices or the Brooklyn League, it was not until laat week that Its apparent charactor waa discovered. The League committee took it up Immediately, and after a study, went on record against It, sent a letter to Mayor Gaynor opposing It. and will be represented nt the liearlug to be given the bill before the Mayor tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. This is the Becond hearing that has been granted the bill, although otily very few people knew of the previous one.

That was held last Thursday at 11 o'clock. Lut no oue appeared, either for or against the measure, and for that reason the second bearing was set down for tomorrow. Tho measure was Introduced by Assemblyman McKee, read once and referred to the Cities Committee. The Brooklyn League legislative committee has discovered that it has a sister bill in tha House, known as Senate bill No. 1,055.

The texts of the two measures arc Identical. Tho introductory paragraph of each reads as follows: "Section ten hundred and nineteen of the Greater New York charter, as re-enacted by chapter four hundred and sixty-six of the laws of nineteen hundred and oue, as amended by chapter live hundred uud seventy-two of the laws of nlnctoen hundred and twelve, 1b hereby amended lo read as follows." Then follows a repetition of the recent law down to the paragraph which provides for the payment of large assessments In Instalments. Tho present law, from there to the end of the chapter, la stricken out. SWINDLED OUT OF OVER $900. Two Italians Accuse Joseph Flori of Grand Larceny.

As the result of two charges of grand larceny, Joseph Florl, SS years old, of 6 Hamilton avenue, was arraigned before Magistrate Nash In tho Butler street court, today. Percy Vlnscentl of 151 Sackett street and Michael L'guorello of 123 Troutman street, the complainants, claimed to have been swindled out of Jewelry and Italian currency amounting to over J900. It Is alleged that Flora was aided by a confederate for whom the police are now hunting. Florl was held in $1,500 ball pending examination. PLACE FOR MICHAEL GRIFFIN.
