It was intimated at the regular meeting of the Cypress Hills Board of Trade, last night, at 3317 Fulton street, that if the electric light and telegraph companies insist in erecting the wooden poles, in the Cypress Hills section they chopped down. August Pellnitz who is the chairman of the lighting committee, stated he had taken the matter up with the Department of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity, and was told that ornamental poles would be erected when the wires are underground, but that wooden poles would be put where the wires are not underground. "We want no wooden our section," declared Wilfred Weeks, former president of the association.

It was when Mr. Weeks had finished that the intimation to chop the poles was made. The association will continue its agitation for a high school. George W. Forbell said effort is being made to have the $543,000 appropriated for.

(Special to The Eagle.) Albany, April 3-The big State appropriation bill a total of $48,452,000 was the Senate carrying, last night.

All the Democrats voted against it, and one Republican, Senator Lawson of Brooklyn, was also recorded in the negative. The measure has already gone through the Assembly, 80 that it will go to the Governor as a ten-day bill. He will have only ten days to sign or veto it. In the past it has been the custom for this measure to into the hands of the Governor either on the closing day of the session or so near to it that it became a thirty-day bill, the Governor having a full month to examine it and apply the veto treatment. It was passed in the Senate last night with only formal opposition from the Democrats.

The Democratic Leader, Senator Warner, who would ordinarily have fought the Republican money measure vigorously, was not even present. He was preparing for the Mitchel-Wagner hearing which begins today. In his stead, Senator Cullen of Brooklyn, and Senators Boylan and Walker of Manhattan presented the Democratic objections. Senator Sage, chairman of the Finance Committee, and Senator Brown, defended the bill. The debate lasted several hours.

Riverside Drive Improvement Plan Also Endorsed by Members at Meeting. After a protracted discussion last night, during which only two members--former Senator Charles Fuller and Dr. Thomas J.

Riley-spoke against the committee's report, the Brooklyn Civic Club went on record as favoring State Senator Charles F. Murphy's bill which provides for an increase in the salaries of the President of the Board of Aldermen and the five Borough Presidents. The report of the Committee to Study the a Adequacy or Inadequacy of the Salaries of the City Officials, as adopted by the club, follows: "The majority of committee favors an increase in the salaries of the Borough Presidents and the President of the Board of Aldermen to the extent of $2,500 each per year, thus increasing the salaries of the Borough Presidents of Manhattan, Brooklyn and the Bronx and the President of the Board of Aldermen from $7,500 to $10,000 per year; and the Presidents of the Boroughs of Queens and Richmond from $5,000 to $7,500 each per year. Two members of the committee were opposed Youths, proposed increases. Ralph chairman of the committee, in reporting declared the Borough Presidents and in fact all of the members of the Board of Estimate were inadequately compensated when the burden of their duties was given careful consideration.

"These men," he said, "aside from the execution of their numerous duties in the administration of the affairs of their respective boroughs throughout the year are called upon to pass upon the budget. On their judgment rests the wisdom of vast expenditures. "They are all men of sound Judgment. In any other field they would demand and receive compensation in keeping with the work they perform. is not a question of paying them what they are worth.

That could not be done and keep the salary list within the bounds of reason. But they should receive a compensation which would enable them to live as men in their position should. "I think it is in a measure an indictment that many of our public offclals leave office after serving out their term of election, poorer in pocket but much richer in experience. I know of one or two instances wherein men in public office have lost considerable money through their faithful service to a borough which does not pay them a living wage. We demand and get men of the highest caliber and we refuse to pay half their real worth." Former Senator Fuller opposed the plan.

"I think," he said, "that at the present time and under present conditions we cannot afford to increase or rather go on record as increasing the salaries as reported by our committee. "As a matter of fact we would have no difficulty in filling any of the offices mentioned with high calibered men. It would not be a question of getting a candidate but selecting the right candidate from the host which would present itself." Dr. Riley spoke along the same lines. Among those who were in favor of the report were George Dressler, President of the Wallabout Market Men's Association, and James B.

Fisher of the Real Estate Board of Brokers. The Committee on City Budget and Taxation, of which Edward H. Wilson, former Assistant Corporation Counsel, is chairman, reported in favor of the Riverside Drive improvement plan and after a brief discussion the report was unanimously adopted by the club. The slight opposition to the report was based upon the fact that the contracts are still subject to discussion and court action and it was believed wise to withhold the approval of the club until the exact nature of the contracts between the city and the New York Central was decided upon. The club voted its approval of the Three-Family House Bill, amending the tenement house law so that houses of this nature would not come under that limitation.

Frank Bailey, vice president of the Title Guarantee and Trust Company, was one of the men who discussed the bill. Today a party of Brooklynites who favor the bill left for Albany on a special train to urge its passage. BURLESQUE THEATERS Ben Small is featured with this week's attraction at the Star Theater.

Senator Calder, Postmaster Burton. and Borough Prosiers, dent Pounds will be among the speak- OPERA AUDIENCE CHEERS PRESIDENT Former Ambassador Gerard Leads Vast Throng in Singing "Star Spangled Banner." MME OBER FAINTS ON STAGE.

Thrilling Scene at Metropolitan Opera House Over News of War. of the most thrilling scenes ever witnessed at the Metropolitan Opera House occurred last night between the third and fourth acts of DeKoven's new opera, "The Canterbury Pilgrims." Former Ambassador Gerard, who was present in the Iselin box, announced to the vast audience present that President Wilson had asked Congress for a declaration of war. Word had been sent to Conductor Bodanzky, and he immediately had the orchestra strike up the "Star Spangled Banner," which the musicians played twice while the whole audience stood and sang the words of the patriotic song. Former Ambassador Gerard then called for three cheers for the President of the United States, which were given with a will. The audience then cheered the Army and Navy, former Ambassador Gerard and the Allies.

To add to the excitement, shortly after the fourth act was begun, Margarette Ober, the German contralto who prima donna role in "The Canterbury Pilgrims," collapsed on the stage in a dead faint. Johannes Sembach, who sings the principal role of Chaucer, and Max Bloch who took the part of the Friar, assisted Mme. Ober off the stage and she was taken to her dressing room. Dr. William M.

Ford restored the singer to consciousness in her dressing room, but advised her hot to attempt to sing any more that evening. There was much excitement among the German members of the opera company, as soon as they heard of the action of President Wilson, and one of the Germans who plays a Knight in "The Canterbury Pilgrims," also collapsed and the stage-hands were obliged to dash cold water on his face to revive him. He was finally able to go out and play his part. The performance of "The Canterbury Pilgrims," was very good, the same cast appearing as at the previous performances. Sembach sang Chaucer, Leonhardt sang the Knight, Paul Althouse the Squire, Max Bloch the Friar, Albert Reiss, King Richard, Margaret Ober, the Wife of Bath, Edith Mason the Prioress and Marie Sundelius, Johanna.

Mr. Bodanzky, who by the way has applied become an American citizen, conducted with his usual skill. He read the score in an intelligent manner and the orchestra played in excellent tempo. As usual the scenery and costumes were very beautiful and picturesque and the whole performance extremely pleasing. HERE'S "SAPHO" AGAIN Thomas Meighan Carries Miss Frederick Up Three Flights at Triangle.

An attendance much smaller than the merits of the attraction warranted saw the start of a new week at the Triangle motion picture house yesterday. Two excellent features were presented. The leader was Pauline Frederick in "Sapho," a part well suited to Miss Frederick's exceptional ability in portraying the passions by changes of countenance. Thomas Meighan as Jean Gaussin had the proper build to make a hit with such a female as Fanny Legrand. He carried her up the well-known staircase, he carricd her every of the and the movie director mate, to it that three flights, and the stairway did not break down, either.

Jean Sainpolis as De Jole, the poet, had the proper perspective in respect to Fanny (not while she was being carried aloft), and was decided hit. Beatriz Michelena in "The Woman Who Dared" was the second feature. The scenario is rather trite in conception, but is well worked out. Albeit, the lady's discovery of the fatal document in the ashes when the sharp-eyed spy had missed it, was far from convincing. The Pictograph and the Bray comedy were well received, as was Victor Moore in "His Military Figure," a somewhat rough and tumble comedy.

UNITY CLUB WILL HELP. Offers Support to President in Case of Need. In order to show their loyalty to this country in the present crisis, the board of directors of the Unity Club at a meeting called on short notice by Sylvan Levy, the' president, unanimously passed a resolution offering the support of the organization.
