The letter follows: Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: "Will The Eagle help to expose a manufacturer who is passing off for linoleum an article composed of tar paper with a painted paper surface? There are several men operating with wagons offeringg this alleged linoleum at 25 cents a yard. They claim that is of the 75 cent quality, but that as it is a remnant they are able to sell at the lower figure.

LONDON SENDS FINE REPORT ON NEW Z00 Photos of Animals Come With Professor Woolridge's Account of Examination. SET SAIL ON OCTOBER Bedell Company Presents Remaining Monkeys in Collection to Brooklyn Youngsters. From the Eagle's London Bureau, Regent street, there came today in the mails from The Eagle's England sentative, George W. Kettle, a full report of the examination of the Bostock animals, purchased by Brooklynites through The Eagle for the Prospect Park Zoo. There also arrived in the same mall the Arst photographs taken of the animals and some of which are shown in the picture section of today's Eagie, The animals were examined by Protessor Wooldridge of the Royal Veterinary College and the consulting veterinary surgeon of the London Zoolog-1 Society, whose report is given.

The representatives of The Eagle in London saw the animals safely placed on the steamship West Point for their conveyance to the United States. Mr. Kettle, In his report of the examination and shipment of the new zoo, written under date of October 23, says: "At the outset we were exceptionally fortunate in securing the services of Professor Wooldridge, the consulting veterinary surgeon to the London Zoological Society, who was recommended to us the Superintendent of the Zoological Gardens in London as being absolutely the best man we could secure for the purpose. "He was very pleased with the condition of them all, with the exception of one lioness, which he rejected. And incidentally, he informed that Messrs.

Bostock had the reputation for giving the utmost care and attention to their stock; their animals are fed well, their health is looked after most assiduously, and their keepers are selected and retained Doth for their efficiency and humane qualities. "It scarcely comes within the scope of this report to relate that an absentminded driver of one of the lorries, conveying the animals to the dock, lost big cape to discover it shortly afterwards in the cage of one of the lionesses who had managed apparently to get hold of a corner of it and appropriated it to her own use; while a dock -laborer, whose courage would earn him the Victoria Cross if he were 1 nthe firing line, indismreetly got hold of the bars in assisting bim with the bears cages, and in consequence reached him tha: eveningg minus a portion of his waistcoat, but fortunately injured 1p DO other way. "The steamship West Point salled on the 21st inst. and is due in Philadelphia within a fortnight of that The report of the animals' condition by Professor Woolridge is as follows: "Royal Veterinary College, "Camden Town, "London, N. "October 16, 1914.

"I beg to state that in company with an Eagle representative I this day proceeded to Messrs. Bostock's menagerie at Earl's Court and at your request inspected a number of animals on behalf of The Brooklyn Eagle and beg to report as follows: "Seven lions and lionesses of varying a ages, nine lions were placed for inspection, of which seven were to be selected. I rejected one lionees for cataract, the choice for number 7 resting between a good specimen of seven to eight years old lion named Atlas, with one eye, and a young lion, 3 vears old (Bruce). As the latter is a very good specimen I advised selection. One adult lion (Merrimac) has drooping eyelids, but appears to be quite healthy, as are all the others "Ten bears, brown and black, including 0110 sloth bear.

Of these a Russian cinnamon bear has a cartaract in his left eye. Apart from that fact they all appear to be in good health and condition. "One white mule, or so the animal is catalogued. To me the animal appears to be a female white ass (Asiatic) and not a hybrid, as is usually meant by the term She is a good specimen and apparently quite docile. "Eight wolves, all of which appeared to be quite healthy and good specimens in good coat.

One large wolf has a scar on the top of his poll (i. at the back of his head). Sundry small animals, including two jackals, one dingo, one coyotte, one mongoose, sveeral lemurs and a number of monkers. All of these appear to be in excellent condition, good speciment and healthy. "It may be remarked that many of the animals show minor scars about the head and limbs, such as are quite inseparable from caged wild animals and mainly due to rubbing on the bars, etc.

"I may say that I have seen the schedule of sale prices of the animals and in my opinion those prices are well within, or even far below their real value. "GEO. H. WOOLBRIDGE, R. C.

U.S., Etc. "Consulting Veterinary Surgean to the Zoological Society, London." Shipping List of Animals on Way Here. This is the shipping list of all the animals, as forwarded by the Bostock agents: 7 Lions and Lionesses. 10 Bears. 1 White Mule.

8 Wolves. Coyote. Dingo. Jackals. 1 Mongoose, About 30 Monkeys.

2 Hyenas. POLITICAL. REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR SENATOR SIXTH DISTRICT CHARLES F. MURPHY Leopard. Lioness.

1 Wallaby Saddle-backed Kangaroo. Jackal. It is pointed out by the Bostock agents in London that the collection has ben largely enhanced in value through the substitution of the hyenas, leopard, additional lioness, jackal and kangaroo for the cloven-hooted animals. The Bostocks put a value of $200 each on the hyenas, and $200 on the leopard alone. Bedell Company Buy Remaining Monkeys.

The Eagle is able to announce that the, Bedell -known Company Fulton of Brooklyn, merchants, the street has purchased the remaining six monkeys as a gift for the zoo.
