TO FIGHT TEMPERANCE PEOPLE Brooklyn Germans Will Offer Important Resolution at Convention. A motion of great importance will be submitted at annual convention of the National German- American Alliance by the Brooklyn branch of this organization. It will virtually be the beginning of a systematic fight against the temperance societies. Last evening's meetings of the Brooklyn branch at A Arion Hall was the the first to be held under the presidency of the new executive officer, August H. Tiemann.

The harmonious proceedings of last evening were in marked contrast to the tumultuous scenes at recent segsions. The proposed action of the Brooklyn delegates at the state, convention, to be held at Alany, on June 26 and 27, was the chief business considered last evening. August H. Tiemenn, Max Wendt, John Phis, Henry Logemann, Rudloph Schumacher, Carl Kalthoff and Emil Rose are the delegates of the Brooklyn branch to the state convention. After some discussion of the subject they were instructed to submit to the vote of the convention the following motion: "That the state organization shall endeavor to secure the passage of a law by the Legislature which shall exclude all such counties from participating in the proceeds of the excise tax, which shall vote for local option." This resoJution was accepted unanimously.

There will be submitted to the state convention a motion by the delegates from Utica to the effect that the percapita tax shall be raised from 2 to 5 cents. This motion will be opposed by the Brooklyn delegates. However, they were instructed to favor another motion which will be submitted by the delegates from Utica. It is to the effect that the sale of liquors is a business, recognized by law and by the gOVernment, by the levying of a tax upon such business and the issuance of licences. Therefore, the German-American Nation Alliance shall endeavor to prevent the interference of the government in the conduct of such business.

Should, however, a majority decide to deprive the owner of such legalized business of his means of livelihood, then a suitable and equitable indemnification shall be paid to the person so deprived of its business, in accordance with the capital invested, such Indemnification to be paid by the taxpayers of the district, which shall have voted for the abolition of such business. The state organization shall be asked to secure the enactment of a law to that effect. The matter was discussed at length and the resolution was finally unanimously, adopted. Several matters of minor to adjournment. BODY OF SLAIN SALESMAN DOUBLED UP IN A TRUNK Moses Sacks Left Home With Jewelry Worth $2,000 in His Possession.

THREE ITALIANS ARRESTED. Expressman Left Trunk With Body in It in Hallway of Goerck Street Tenement, The body of Moses Sacks, 55 years old, a jewelry salesman, who lived at 24 East Ninety-ninth street, Manhattan, was found, fully dressed, doubled up in a new trunk, bound with new rope, in the hallway of a tenement at 51 Goerck street, Manhattan, this morning. It was left there by an expressman yesterday, and this morning the janitress, Mrs. Margaret Clark, went to the patrol station of the Delancey street precinct, at 55 Goerck (street, and asked Patrol Driver Thomas Collins to remove it, as she was afraid it would be stolen. Collins telephoned over to the station house and Lieutenant Cooney told him to bring the trunk over at once.

When the rope was cut the lid flew open and Cooney and Collins and two or three policemen beheld the dead body of a middle-aged man with a dark beard, and partly bald, doubled up with his head against his knees. Word of the discovery was sent to police headquarters, and Inspector Russell, head of the detective bureau, took personal charge of the case. A billhead I reading "Moses Sacks, jeweler, 180 East Houston was found in one of the dead man's pockets, and patrolman was sent that address. Julius Weinberg, who now has a jewelry business at that number, said when saw the billhead, "Sacks used to be here, but I bought the place from him." Weinberg was asked to go to the station and look at the body, and the first glance he said it was undoubtedly that of Sacks. Later, the two grown sons of Sacks, Isidor and Moses, entered the station house in a hurry and looked at the body in the trunk.

When they saw it they screamed and fainted. When they revived they were hysterical and had to be taken to another part of the building to be quieted. The two sons had gone to police headquarters this morning to report to the Bureau of Information that their father had left home yesterday at 1 o'clock, with $2,000 worth of jewelry on his person, and had not returned. When they gave a description of him they were asked to go to the Delancey street station at once and see Inspector Russell. They were too hysterical to make any statements.

Shortly before noon Detectives Riley, Forbes, Kerr and Van Wagener sent word to Inspector Russell that they had arrested three Italians as suspects and would bring them to the Delancey street station. They said they found the men nt 178 Chrystie street, where Sachs is I nown to have been at noon yesterday. He received some money in payment for jewelry from an Italian at that address, and the detectives have seen the receipts he gave. Up to 12 o'clock, two hours and a half after the discovery of the body, the coroner had not arrived, and the body was not removed from the trunk. Isidor Sachs said that his father left home at five o'clock yesterday morning and that he saw him later at Twentyninth street and Second avenue.

M. CHARLTON REPLIES. In Letter to Canon Chase, He Shows That Philharmonic Concerts Must Be Run at a Loss. In reply to a letter from Canon Chase pastor of Christ Church, Bedford avenue, condemnatory of the exchange of money at the box office on Sunday by the Philharmonic Orchestra for the five Sunday concerts next season, Loudon S. Charlton, the manager, suggests that the seats be sold by subscription only.

The cost of each concert, regardless of rteurns fro mgross receipts, will be $2,850, and with the small scale of prices for the Ave concerts Mr. Charlton says the total Income will only be $2,000 if the entire house is sold, leaving a deficit of $850. This deficit, plus the local expenses in Brooklyn of approximately $600 er concert. kill maake a total deficit of over $7,000. Mr.

Charlton then explains that the guarantors of the society will stand this loss for the furtherance their purposes in Brooklyn. "If your associations and all other church organizations will co-operaate in promoting these concerts the entire house can be sold by subscription before the concerts begin, thus making it possible to padlock the box office on Sunday," explained Mr. Charlton. "These arrangements will almost be paralled with the status of pew holders in all churches who subscribe for their seats and pay for them during the week." The only condition asked by the society is that, besides the five scheduled concerts, the society have an option on three more subsequent Sundays in Brooklyn. OBITUARY NOTES.

Will Fight Incorporation of Lynbrook at the Polls and Before Special Election. (Special to The Eagle.) Lynbrook, L. June 18-There was a small attendance mass meeting at Lyceum Hall yesterday afternoon, called by Supervisor Smith Cox to discuss the advisability of incorporation for Lynbrook. When the meeting was opened the supervisor asked to hear from those opposed to incorporation, but no one spoke. After waiting a few moments the meeting was closed.

Supervisor Cox now has ten days wherein to file his decision whether or not a special election shall be called, and should he in favor of the tion, as undoubtedly he will, the 'election must be called within twenty days. Although no one spoke against incorporation, it does not mean that there is no opposition thereto. On the contrary. there is a decided feeling against it, but those opposed decided not to appear at the mass meeting, but rather to wait until the election is held, and then vote "No." A meeting of a large number resident taxpayers who opposed the proposition was held last night, when an active campaign was decided upon. An interesting fight is anticipated.

Patten and Seven Others Indicted by United States Grand Jury. FIVE GIVE $5,000 BAIL EACH. Conspiracy With Spinners Is Alleged, to Corner Market Supply of Cotton. Following Attorney General Wickersham's investigation of what is alleged to be a cotton pool, whereby a clique of big cotton men in Chicago, New Orleans and in this city and elsewhere in this country are accused of having been in a gigantic conspiracy to clean up about $10,000,000 by cornering what is left of the 1909 crop, and keeping it cornered, with the aid of some fifty mills, until November 1, an has been found by the special Grand indictment, Jury against eight men, including James A. Patten of Chicago, under the Sherman anti-trust law.

Besides Patten, there are Frank B. Hayne of New Orleans, William P. Brown of New Orleans, Eugene G. Scales of Texas, Colonel Robert M. Thompson of this city, Charles A.

Kittle of this city, Sydney J. Harmon of Shreveport, and Morris H. Rothschild of Woodville, Miss. Each of the eight got word two days ago that he would be indicted, and Patten, Brown, Hayne, Scales and Rothschild were in the United States Circuit Court, in Manhattan, before Judge Hough, late yesterday afternoon. Thompson, Kittle and Harman are expected to appear some time to-day.

Henry Wellman, appearing for Patten, and former Senator John C. Spooner, appearing for Brown, Hayne, Scales and Rothschild, entered a plea of not guilty for their clients, and bail for each defendant was fixed at $5,000 at the sugestion of District Attorney Wise. The five were paroled two days to give them time to get bail, but they got it without delay, the Fidelity and Deposit Company signing Patten's bond and the National Surety Company the bonds of the others. July 5 is the date on which the accused may change their pleas for the demurrers. A statement which Attorney General Wickersham has given out is outline of the nature of the cotton conspiracy charged against the accused men.

The statement reads: "These indictments are the result of an investigation based upon information that the persons indicted, with others, had formed a combination for the nurpose of cornering the entire remaining supply of raw cotton of the crop of 1909, thus creating an artificial shortage. "Spinners agreed to join the conspiracy to the extent of purchases of several thousand of cotton to be removed trom the market. Pursuant to this agreement, the pool acquired about 350.000 bales of raw cotton for delivery in May. This complete control of the May market, with the further purchase of several hundred thousand bales of the remaining supply for delivery in July and August, was intended to complete the monopoly of the remainder of the crop." Henry Wellman, in behalf of Patten, made the following statement following the proceedings in court: "A hasty reading of this indictment shows that apparently the most impor tant thing relied upon by the government is what is called the spinners' contract-that is, a contract between some of the parties and certain spinners with reference to the purchase by the spinners of certain cotton, which they agreed not to deliver, against contract on certain cotton exchanges. There is nothing in the contract, as I read it, to prevent the sale of the cotton to any legitimate buyer, but it does prevent the sale of it to speculators, and that is all it does.

However, my client, Mr. Patten, was no party to any of these spinners' contracts." The indictment, with the exception of that against Kittle, was found a week ago Thursday. He was given a chance to get immunity from indictment by answering certain questions, which he declined to do. SAVED FROM MOB Young Miraboldi Had a Narrow Escape. Woman Aroused Hue and Cry After -Hidden in Coal Yard Until Police Arrived.

Had it not been for William Feeney, who is employed at the Nelson Bros. coal depot, at Erie Basin, Edward Miraboldi, 18 years old, of 116 Skillman avenue, might now be in the hospital suffering from injuries which a mob of over a hundred Italians sought to inflict. Miraboldi was walking along Dikeman street and as he neared Van Brunt street, it is alleged that he knocked a can of beer from a woman's hand, who was passing at the time. A mob of Italians, attracted by the screams of the woman, chased the boy for several blocks, until he finally took refuge in the coal yard at the foot of Richards street. After jumping a high fence, over which a number of the mob followed, the youth was hidden away by Feeney until the arrival of several police officers.

He was then escorted home. The woman told the officers that she was going to have him arrested. COMPARATIVE RELIGION STUDY Report to World's Conference as to Effective Missionary Work in New Christian Fields. Edinburgh, June 18-The International Missionary Conference listened to-day to the report of the commission on "The Missionary Message in Relation to NonChristian Religions," which was presented by Professor D. S.

Cairns, D. professor of systemntic theology and apologetics in the United Free Church College at Aberdeen. Dr. Cairns, who is one of the younger men of Scotland who have devoted much of their lives to the study of missionary questions, laid special stress upon the need for a thorough and systematic knowledge of the non-christian religions by those who labor among their adherents. In the course of his report he said: conclusion is surely inevitable that provision should be made for a thorough teaching in comparative religion in all our colleges and training instttutes.

"We submit further that there lg urgent need for special work in the foreign field on the lines which have been indicated in our Inquiry. The living forces of the non-Christian religion in each field ought to be measured and set in clear relation to the living forces of the Christian gospel, and the points of contact and contrast brought out In clear relief."

KNOCKED DOWN DETECTIVE. Assaulted Conductor Who Went to Motorman's Aid -Subdued Finally by Policeman's Club. According to the testimony of Motorman Charles J. Burman and Conductor Michael Cleary, this morning, in the Manhattan avenue court, Benjamin Cohen, 18 years old, of 96 Cook street, caused a panic among the passengers of a crowded train of the Broadway elevated railroad, bound for East New York. Cohen was a passenger stood near the motorman's booth.

ands the car was approaching Myrtle avenue station it is alleged that Cohen yanked open the door of the booth, struck Burman a powerful blow on the head. The motorman was stunned, but managed to shut off the power. After shutting off the current Burman grappled with his assailant. The car by this time was in an uproar. Women began to on shriek and made a rush for the rear door, and the excitement spread throughout the train.

Conductor Cleary rushed to the aid of Burman, who was getting the worst of the encounter.

HOLD TRANSIT CONFERENCE P. S. Commission and Board of Estimate Committee in Confab.

Not Much Favor Shown to B. R. T. Proposal-Triborough Subway Contracts Discussed. Two conferences were held yesterday between the members of the Public Service Commission and the transit committee of the Board of Estimate, composed of Mayor Gaynor, Controller Pendergast and President Mitchel.

The first was on the, application of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company for a temporary franchise to operate a portion of the Centre street subway loop which connects the bridges in Manhattan. The second was a report by a committee of engineers submitted by the Board of recently drafted by commission for Estimate committee on contract forms the the tri-borough subway route. The invitation extended to the Board of Estimate committee to participate with the commission in the discussion on the B. R. application and offer for the temporary franchise to operate the subway loop, was unexpected.

Colonel Timothy L. Williams represented the railroad company. Some of the members of the Board of Estimate committee intimated that their presence was desired by the company for the purpose of impressing them with the generous proportions of the company's offer. If that was the company's object, it was a signal failure. The members cf the Board of committee refused to be impressed.

fact, they could not unEstimate, derstand why they had been invited to the conference. "I left before it was over," said Controller Prendergast. "It was impossible for me conceive any reason for us being there." The result is that the B. R. application and offer for the franchise is in the same position as when it was first made, as far as the officials of the city administration are concerned.

The responsibility of accepting or rejecting the offer of the company rests entirely with the Public Service Commission. The second conference developed that the Board of Estimate committee has punched various holes in the contract forms of the tri-borough route as prepared by the commission. The criticisms of the Board of Estimate were based upon report prepared by its committee of a engineers, who studied the contract forms in detail. This committee consisted of the followengineers: Creuzbaur of President ing Steers' office; Goodrich, of President McAneny's office; Klein, from the office of the Commissioners of Accounts, and Frazee of the Finance Department. They came to the conclusion, after an exhaustive investigation of the contract forms, that these forms contained many stipulations and provisions which would be absolutely unfair and unjust to contractors who bid on them.

In fact, the declared that the contractors engineers were placed at a disadvantage by the present requirements in the contract forms. It was insinuated that in their present form it was likely that hardly any contractors could be induced to bid. the Public Service Commission received these criticisms could not be learned, but it is a foregone conclusion that the present contract forms will be radically amended.
