Commissioner Williams, In telling of the Importance of the proposed plan to Brooklyn, said: "We can't possibly Imagine what this meanB for Brooklyn. It Is almost beyond comprehension. It will bring the great trunk lines of the continent to the waterfront of Brooklyn by means of the New York Connecting and Long Island Railroad lines a belt line service can be Inaugurated that will reach all parts of the borough.

"We proposed at first that when we extend the Fourth avenue line down to Eighty-sixth street that we run the four tracks as far as Seventy-second Btreet, and that from there we turn off two of the tracks to go under the Narrows. But when Borough President Cromwell assured us that the trunk Hue railroads had agreed that if we would make the tubes large enough for their trains they would assist in paying the cost of con-ntruction. we changed our plans and de- LAW NOW- IS VERY STRICT.

The letter was sent by the Colonel before he started on the Ohio campaign, and the Controller did not see It until he returned to the city last evening, after a two days tour of the Buckeye State. The Invitation to Mr. Prendergast consisted of a single line telling Mr. Prendergast that Colonel Roosevelt would be pleased if the Controller would place him in nomination at the National convention. Mr.

Prendergast accepted the Invitation In a telegraphic dispatch addressed to Mr. Roosevelt In Ohio. Politicians seem to place unusual significance to this invitation. They are predicting that Mr. Prendergast will be a star of the first magnitude in the political firmament If the Roosevelt programme Is carried through at the Chicago convention.

The elimination of State Chairman William Barnes, and other powers In the State organization who have supported the renomlnatlon of President Taft is regarded as a certainty if Mr. Roosevelt is placed in the saddle by the Chicago convention. With Mr. Roosevelt as the Presidential candidnte of the Republican party, It Is prophesied that the Rough Rider and not Mr. Barnes or Mr.

Woodruff will dictate the programme of the next Republican State convention. The cherished plan of State Chairman Barnes to nominate "Jimmy" Wadsworth, the former speaker of the Assembly, as the Republican Gubernatorial candidate will probably be cast into tthe political scrap heap. As the head of the national ticket, and with New York as his homo State, It is expected that Colonel Roosevelt will naturally demand the naming of a State ticket which will help the national ticket. And the Roosevelt supporters declare that the Colonel will encounter few obstacles in having his way In bringing this about. It is, of course, too early to predict who Colonel Roosevelt has in mind as the logical and strongest candidate of tho Republican organization to place at the head of the State ticket, but In political circles it Is said that Controller Prendergast would be the best betting proposition.

The oratorical powers of the Controller apparently have made an Impression on Colonel Roosevelt, Senator Dixon and tthe other national managers of the Colonel's campaign. Mr. Prendergast has been besieged with telegrams from all over the country to speak In those States where preferential primaries are still to be held. Mr. Prendergast's official duties In New York preclude the acceptance of these invitations, but at the urgent request of Senator Dixon he promised to return to Ohio, where be will be the principal speaker at the final Roosevelt mass meeting on Saturday night, In Cincinnati, President Taft's home city.

also a provision for the recording of a birth "not previously recorded." The purpose of this was to place on the records the birth of a child at the time he made application for his working papers or at any other time it might be discovered that no record of the birth had been made. With the enactment of the section making the parents responsible for the recording of the birth, as well as the doctor or other person preBent at the birth of the child, it developed that parents, not anxious to be guilty of a violation of the law, visited the office of the Health Department to Insure the recording of the birth. About the same time that the charter was revised, City Superintendent of Schools Maxwell, In an effort to keep children under 6 years out of the elementary schools, put into effect the requisition from every child applying for admission of the certificate of birth. This helped the Health Department considerably In getting on Its records the names of many who never knew that their birth was unrecorded until application was made for such a certificate. In Brooklyn during the year 1911, 45,699 births were recorded as against 42.708 in 1910.

Among the Italians and Russians the Health Department officials find a great anxiety to comply with the law. This is attributed to the fact that the parents take a birth certificate with them when they visit their native land, In order to bear evidence of the American citizenship of tha child, thereby avoiding compulsory military service. no New Orleans 66 Boston Buffalo 62 .461 69 .01 IOST On Friday.

Harold Eversman, an eleven-year-old-schoolboy, missing from his home at 420 Forty-first street, Is being sought for by tho police throughout the city. The lad has been attending Public School No. 140 at Fourth avenue and Forty-first street. When he didn't come home at' noon yesterday his stepmother, Mrs. Ida Eversman, asked the police of the Fourth, avenue station to look for him.

Up to noon today no trace had been found ot the boy. He is described as 3 feet tall, weighing 95 pounds and having a fair complexion. He wore a blue serge coat, brown velvet trousers, a striped shirt and a gray cap. Arrived at Foreign Ports Today. started with his wife and two children to go to the Bushwlck Theater.

The committee recommended that the city appropriate $5,000,000 as Its share for the work of construction. It is said by the Richmond officials that now is the time for securing valuable assistance In the matter of tunnel construction, from the big trunk lines coming into New York. Such a gigantic scheme would have to be carried out Jointly by all of the railroads. The main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad pauses through Elizabethport, not ten minutes from Tompkinsville by rail; the Baltimore and Ohio crosses the Kill by a bridge to Staten Island has its terminal at St. George, and all the other lines could easily get to the proposed tunnel under Kill von Kull.

Would Save Millions in Lower Freight Rates to Brooklyn. Every part of Brooklyn could be brought into touch with the tunnel and the waterfront lines by means of the B. R. T. freight and express delivery service, with Its terminal on the South Brooklyn waterfront.

It Is estimated that the cutting out of lighterage charges on coal, Ice, lumber and raw materials for manufacturing would save many millions of dollars annually and give Brooklyn manufacturers such an advantage that they could lead those of all other sections of the United States, with their splendid steamship piers and facilities for handling waterfront traffic In connection with tho proposed marqual railroad. It is said, also, that It would not be long before the passengers destined for interior points could be transferred from the biff OCCan llnerp. tn tha trunk lln ice Commission as expressed by Commissioner G. S. Williams, Is to have the tnbes laid under the Narrows by a method similar to the one used by the Canada and Michigan trunk lineB In constructing their tunnels under the Detroit River.

The body was removed to the Hamburg Naples Carpathla for New York. Heights, JuBt now, and complaint has been made to the police that a new method Is being pursued to gain the apparel. The scheme employed Is to go to the home of someone who has the service of a corporation which cleans and keeps clothes of customers in shape by the year. There are four known victimB, the total loss running up to over $400 so far. The thief follows up the delivery boy of the concern, and after the clothes have been left at the houses, rings the bell and says that there was something left undone about the suit or the dress, and that he has been sent to take them back to the shop.

Usually the clothes have not been unpacked so soon, and the box Is handed back to the supposed employe. That Is the last seen of them. Mrs. Frank Slttlg, of 81 Plerrepont street, well known for her activity in the Brooklyn Christmas Tree Society, said today that a man collected two new suits and an overcoat belonging to her eon through this ruse, and that he is a loser by about $120. Mrs.

Henry I. Judson, who lives at 116 Willow street, is particularly Incensed at the loss of a London gown worth over $250. The thief also tried to get some clothes from Mme. Schilling, who has a boarding house at 3 Montague street, but in that case ho failed, because none of the boarders had left any word about their clothes. W.

H. Spellman, of 24 Plerrepont street, lOBt a suit In the same way, and it Is thought that there may be other victims.
