QUEENS BOROUGH AND LONG ISLAND BAY SHORE BONIFACE DEFIES PASTOR; OPENS SHOW; PASTOR THERE Hotel Man Says "Clean Up" Minister Broke 1-Now Hurls Defiance. WOMEN PERFORMERS AGAIN. Church Crusader Sits Through Show. Now Off 1 to Albany to Force Issue. Bay Shore, L.

July 27-For more than an hour last night the Rev. D. D. Irvine, Bay Shore's "clean-up" pastor, sat in the dining room of Johnson's Hotel, on Main street, and witnessed fulfillment made by the proprietor, afternoon, ofestethreat, that he would put his cabaret show back on the plane occupied before the minister exacted from him a tea promise to eliminate women from the entertainments. It was a severe blow for the minister after being given assurance that all would be quiet and appropriate in the future.

Johnson had given notice to colored quartette on Saturday night, and telephoned yesterday noon to a theatrical employment agency in the city to send out two male and two feminine performers. Thus were diplomatic relations between Pastor and Johnson severed. "We agreed," said Johnson to an Eagle reporter last night, "that all women performers would be tabooed and that no publicity would be given to our agreement or the evidence which Mr. Irvine claims to have collected. My side of the agreement was signed, but I did not require his signature as a guarantee that he would keep faith with me.

I have lived up to my promises up to tonight, but I do not feel bound by them any longer as he has not acted in good faith. Mr. Irvine is in my dining room now sitting 11 cont of a glass of ginger ale, and he is welcome to stay and enjoy the entertainment as long as he behaves himself." Pastor Irvine did stay and did "behave himself." He left place shortly before 11 o'clock, the legal closing hour, and rode up and down Main street on a bicycle. Johnson was in defiant mood, throughout the evening. There were between thirty and forty people in the dining room to witness the return of the cabaret.

The minister noted their faces and they, knowing his mission, cast many inquiring glance the table where he was seated when the women performers strolled to the piano acts. Later, when the crusader had departed and WAS doing patrol duty in front of a the hotel, many of Johnson's patrons also left, expressing disappointment because there was no actual interrupAt 11:30 there still remained a scattered few a about the tables and the cabaret was going on as usual. Pastor Irvine, by this time, had gone to the parsonage. Johnson was asked at about this time if he did not think the minister had forged another link in the evidence against the hotel. "Oh, no," the hotel man replied with a show of confidence in his own diplomacy: "this is just a way had calling his bluff.

I have a hotel license and can keep my dining room open up to any hour at night if no liquor is ordered after 11 o'clock. This man evidently does not understand the law on this point. We can serve liquor after that hour if it has been ordered before 11 o'clock. Besides, Mr. Irvine hasn't any kind of evidence against me whatever.

I never remember having seen him in this hotel before Following the developments of last night, Pastor Irvine made another change in his plans for a vacation. He had expected to leave at 2 o'clock today for Ruland, to exchange pulpits with the Methodist minister there, but last night, after leaving Johnson's, he said he would leave this morning for Albany, where he would seek out the Excise Commissioner and lay his evidence before him. Then he will go on to Vermont. The other cabaret hotel, Samuel Cox's, still remains in the good graces of the minister, but another amusement promoter has come under the ban. Clarence Dominy, son of Arthur Dominy, former superintendent of this coast guard district, has been conducting a dance hall on a platform erected on the corner of Main street and Bay Shore avenue.

This dance platform was one of the features of the Foresters carnival, conducted on this lot about weeks ago, and Dominy has been perpetuating the attraction. The Methodist parsonage is only a short distance down the street and he has complained of the noise at late hours. Yesterday afternoon Dominy went to see Pastor Irvine by appointment and the latter urged the promoter to close up at 11 o'clock. Dominy refused and left with the min1ster threatening to have the place closed up as a public nuisance. MRS.

Gus Feiring Says Explosive Was Hidden in Rubbish Just Before He Burned It. (Special to The Eagle.) Sayville, L. July 27-A rather unusual case of what the victim claims wag an attempt to poison him has Greene reported to District Attorney by Gus Feiring, photographer, with studios Main street. The whole affair smacks of mystery, a8 Feiring is certain an attempt was made on his life, and the method' attempted is one of the few of its kind on record. Feiring appeared before Dr.

A. R. last Thursday evening, plainly suffering from some terrible ailment. He WAS uncertain what the trouble was, but a hasty examination made by the physician was sufficient to show that Feiring was scarcely able to breathe because of carbolic acid poisoning. The doctor administered an antidote and, after minutes, Feiring managed to stagger home to the studio.

The story told by the photographer in the District Attorney's office is that, while working in his office all day Thursday, he was aware of a peculiar smell, but thought nothing of it. Just before 6 o'clock he entered his dark room to do a little developing and closed the door after him. The rest is rather vague to him, but he remembeing overcome by an intense choking. His first real consciousness came, he states, when he stepped out for a breath of fresh air. As 800n as he could walk he hastened Deinse's office.

Dr. Van said to Dr. Van today that Feiring had inhaled the fumes of carbolic acid, none of which had been taken internally. He was certain of this, because of the rapidity with which the photographer recovered and the entire absence of spots caused by acid poisoning. Feiring is certain an attempt was made on his life by someone accustomed to his habit of entering the dark room for long periods at a time and closing the door.

He believes the acid was scattered around the floor--the traces of it are still evident-with the hope that by inhaling the fumes he would become unconscious and succumb. He has stated also there is a person who, he believes, would benefit by his death. The District Attorney's office has taken up the matter, but as yet has made no report. One of the peculiar phases of the incident is that about a year ago, according to Feiring, a previous attempt was made to kill him. This occurred while he was burning old papers.

The photographer was stirring the blazing pile with a broomhandle when there was an explosion. A stone flew up and struck him in the head, but he wag not injured severely. Feiring said that no carbolic acid had been used or stored in the studio, so far as he knew. FLUSHING MAN TAKES BRIDE W. W.

WAVES, ONLY, ANGRY AT LONG BEACH NOW Special Meeting of Village Board Is Almost a Love Feast. (Special to The Eagle.) Long Beach, L. July 27-The little village office was crowded at the special meeting of the village board last night.

Contrary to expectation, however, not a jarring word or suggestion disturbed the proceedings. Not that the meetings of the Long Beach village board are of the Jarring sort. They are not as usual, but following the attack by former Senator Reynolds upon Warren E. Burns, village trustee, many were there to see "some fur fly." The meeting was tame. Not a word of reference was made to the recent excitement that stirred the village.

Everyone seemed unusually happy and peaceful. The only angry thing in Long Beach last night was the ocean, which dashed upon the beach furiously. The board was a unit in everything. It seemed certain that the Reynolds-Burns-Felix is at an end, for the present. The imbroglio rumor that the board would invite Senator Reynolds to attend the next meeting proved to be nothing but a rumor.

Nor would any of the assembled taxpayers discuss the recent disturbance. Nahan Franko he did not address the was board. present, but The story McGarry is told at the Bench that Joseph offered $25,000 to Franko for his home at Long Beach, but it was refused. Both men but it is reported the offer are friends, was more to test the musician than else. Mr.

Franko had expressed anything a desire to sell and leave Long Beach, he told McGarry that he would but not sell his property for $50,000. He has recovered his feelings and is very happy to remain in Long Beach. The meeting last night was not without interest, however. It brought together Joseph Brown, a contractor. and Chief of Police Charles Hewlett in pointed controversy.

Brown, who is under contract to remove was asked to be present. Chief garbage, Hewlett declared that Brown's workmen dumped garbage near the home of Mrs. William Bramwell, and that he arrested one of them. Further, the chief said Brown does not garbage barrels of many of the storeempty the keepers, and he added that Brown used the village lots because he was dispossessed from Barnum Island, the village dumping ground. Brown asked to be released of his garbage contract, which pays $300 a year.

Mr. Randall, attorney for the Long Beach Estates, read excerpts of the contract existing between the Estates and the village regarding grades, urging the village to use certain grades made by the concern in making improvements to the streets. The matter was left in the hands of the Estates engineer. In the matter of the contract between the Public Works Construction the Company $200.000 and the village concerning street contract Joseph A. Boyce of that company read a reply to a letter from the village authorities asking what adjustment of the dispute over the terms of the contract the pears company proposed making.

It apthat there was a hitch over the depth of the gravel to be laid on the streets. The village understood that the gravel would lay six inches when rolled, but the company claims that it agreed to six-inch gravel without rolling. The village and the company have been at odds over the matter. Boyce has laid a sample road, which has been approved, and he agrees to maintain a similar depth over the entire village. He depth does after not rolling, guarantee a six-inch however.

The trustees will consider the matter further. Policeman John Curley was found asleep in an outbuilding at 3 a.m. recently, and Chief Hewlett took his badge from his coat while he slept, the chief reported. He is now under charges, but will be given a chance to defend himself, according to law, at the next meeting. MENNINGER'S BOOM LAUNCHED.

DYNAMITE REMOVED FROM CEMETERIES Maple Grove, Jamaica, Loses Its Supply to City Bureau of Combustibles.

(Special to The Eagle.) Jamaica, L. July 27-Because the officials of Maple Grove Cemetery, on Queens Boulevard, near here, will not employ day and night watchmen to guard a little two-foot square explosive magazine, in which a quantity of dynamite has been stored forty years without mishap, gravediggers must cut away or remove huge bowlders with no aid other than their picks and shovels. All the the dynamite stored in the magazine by cemetery officials for use in blastbowlders out of new graves has been taken away by officers of the Bureau of Combustibles. Superintendent Mott, in charge of the cemetery, said yesterday that twenty-two pounds dynamite, only valued at about $3, were stored in the $85 receptacle, and as the cemetery a year license fee keeping pays about that quantity on hand, he did not feel he could afford to least $1,200 a year more to employ spend at day and night watchmen. Mr.

Mott said that when officers of the Bureau of Combustibles confiscated the dynamite they said the only way it could be kept legally hereafter would be to have a watchman constantly on duty at the magazine. He understood that all cemeteries in the city have been deprived of dynamite unless day and night watchmen were employed. Meanwhile the gravediggers are using the methods of the neollthic age.
