Conway of Long Island City, then a city magistrate, purchased a plot of fourteen lota and a small building on the corner of Metropolitan avenue and Wicks street, Richmond Hill, at a partition sale, for $7,960.

He received a deed from the referee, William A. Moller. Magistrate Conway later tried to take possession of his property. Mrs. Susan B.

W. Miller, one of the defendants in the partition suit, who has been living in the house, refused to get out or surrender the property according to the terms of the sale and in spite of the fact that Magistrate Conway had the deed from Moller. Yesterday Justice Garretson In the Queens t-ouniy supreme Court, signed an order directing the sheriff to place the magistrate in possession of the property. Deputy sheriffs will be sent out to force Mrs. Miliar from the property If she refuses to leave upon demand.

DINE HDMPHREY; ASSAIL NEWCOMBE County Judge Turns Down Proposition That He Run Independently. HIS FRIENDS STILL ANGRY. I Queens Democratic Machine, Aided by MeCooey, Stole Nomination From Him, They Say. A surprise dinner was tendered to County Judge Burt Jay Humphrey at the Hotel Shelbourne, Brighton Beach, last evening, in celebration of the remarkable run made by the Judge for the Democratic nomination for the Supreme Court at the primaries. Some unexpected surprises developed at the dinner.

The affair became an anti-Newcombe meeting, and there was bitter denunciation of the Keatlng-New-combe machine and its alleged method of overcoming the choice of the Queens County voters, through the assistance of McCooey. Also, to the surprise of Judge Humphrey, each of the speakers, all of whom were members of the Queens County Lawyers' Committee, which aided the Humphrey campaign, voiced his opinion that the guest of honor should run for Supreme Court Justice. A resolution was passed pledging the Unanimous support of all the committee for Judge Humphrey, but he refused to consent to run. About forty attended tho dinner. William E.

Stewart was toastmaster. He said he had been approached by William K. Hendrickson in behalf of Richard S. Newcombe, who asked that the Humphrey committeo be merged into a Newcombe committee. The suggestion was made that a searching party be organized to find "the Newcombe committee." Frank Adel, another -speaker, declared that Humphrey was and Newcombe was not the choice of Queens County voters and that neither he nor many of his brother lawyers could be delivered over to someone else than the choice of the Queens County voters.

T. Frank' Ryan, Stephen H. Vorls, William F. Ryan and Louis Halpert also spoke along the same lines, Judge Humphrey said he was deeply grateful for the demonstration and for the unique celebration of a lost victory. "But having pledged my word, I am obliged to keep it honorably to the voters of Kings and Queens and will decline to accept an independent nomination which you so earnestly press upon me even though it would, as many of you believe, result in a great victory." Among those present were: William E.

Stewart, Eugene V. Daly, Benjamin Marvin, George P. Rhodiua, Arthur tiuttman. Robert B. Austin, John P.

September 27 For some reason that the farmers say they cannot explain the cauliflower crop is unusually late this year.

Last year at this time three cars or more a day were being moved from Riverhead alone. Up to this time practically none is being moved to market. The few that have been shipped are selling for a good price, from $2 to a crate. It is said by the farmers that the crop is looking fine and there are indications that although the season may be short there will be a large crop, with good quality and a high price. In some respects the farmers say they are glad that the crop is late for it is giving them a good chance to get their big crop of potatoes out of the ground.

She stated that she has taken a stand against all such amputations, as she has been able to save such limbs with proper care. Captain Fallon, an Australian, who has been wounded fifteen times, follows Countess Mazzuchi. He slated that the Germans hace dev-astntpd nn nrpa. lareer than the State of New York. It is expected that in 1919 the Germans will have been driven back into their own territories.

The British at times, he said, have tunnelled areas as large as Long Island and blown the place up together vith the Germans in it. Major General T. Franklin Bell, In opening, said that we have Inherited a dislike for standing armies and the professional soldiers. "I am not in favor of an unnecessarily large army. In fact, I am not in favor of a war.

We professional soldiers like peace. A country that does not fight for its rights will soon have no rights to fight tur. General Sherman was only half right when he said War is hell. It is a creat deal worse. If we did not enter this war in Europe you would later be required to fight the war in your own country." General Bell, in the course of his stirring address, made a plea for uni versal military training, witnoui, ne said, trying to ennoble war, he pointed out the blessings that have come to this country, to other countries, to mankind, through war.

"When we consider what we owe to society and our country, it does not seem so terrible to give our life for a principle. It is not so much a question of a soldier dying, but how he dies. Men learn to be brave and death is not such a terrible thing," he concluded. Justice Walter H. Jaycox, In introducing Henry W.

Suydam, said: "Everybody on Long Island reads The Brooklyn Eagle and everyone on Long Island knows Henry Wi Suydam, The Eagle's war correspondent, whose articles on the war have made such interesting reading." Mr. Suydam crowded into his half hour innumerable anecdotes, experiences and observations from all parts of Europe and Asia, in which the war drama, or tragedy, is being enacted. His interview with Admiral Beatty, aboard the flagship of the High Seas Fleet; his interview with Kerensky, the Premier of the Provisional Russian Government; his experience at Verdun and all the way to Turkey, and then across Asia, furnished him with a wealth of human Interest stories.

I. Dealers Fear. FAnMERS' PROFIT A GOOD ONE, Dealers Can't Store Spuds, Bat thd Growers Are Cramming Storage Cellars Full. (Special to The Eagle.) Riverhead, L. 'September 27 Potatoes dropped oft 15 cents a bushel on the curb market here yesterday, down to 11.60, and the market, called, feverish the day before, was described as quite settled yesterday, although the shipping was not as brisk as It had been In some days when the price was $1.25.

Some dealers here claim that it ia their belief that $1.50 will be a settled price. They claim that the expense in growing and the restricted movement due to limited transportation demands about that price' per bushel to the farmer to. assure him good profit. Both the dealers and some of the farmers view with apprehension, they say, any effort to crowd the price, much higher than $1.60 per It is their belief that if any concerted, effort is made to shove it much high-: cr as a steady thing that the Govern-; ment may interfere and fix an arbitrary maximum price. It is realized here that every farmer is going to store potatoes almost to the limit of hiB ability.

Some have big storage cellars; some have only small ones. The farmers say it is necessary for the good of the consumer to do this. They contend that if they were to Bbtp all of their potatoes direct from the fields that the market would be glutted and many potatoes would rot before they could be disposed of, with the result that later there would be no potatoes to be had at any price. They can't ship them as fas as they dig them, anyway. It is likewise stated here that the dealers will not store any potatoes in their shtorage houses.

The Government has decred against this, and it i said that the dealers are not going to take a chance. Last year at this time many big cellars of dealers were crammed full. This year the dealers had a chance to nil up at $1 per bushel, but there is not a potato in their eel-lars today.

September 27 Two mass meetings, held in the Star Palace Theater and the Methodist Church, last night, brought to a close Patchogue's Camp Upton and Send-off Day. Both buildings held a capacity crowd, primed with enthusiasm and patriotism that was ever ready to expend itself in outburst of applause About 3,000 persons attended the double meetings.

Several speakers addressed the meetings in turn. Justice Walter H. Jaycox presided at the Star Palace meeting and Villuge President E. Agate Foster presided at the Methodist Church meeting. Chorus Director Wil-mot D.

Girard provided a chorus for each meeting, in addition to soloists. The speakers scheduled to apeak at each meeting were Major General J. Franklin Bell, Countess Chich Maz-zuchi of the Italian Red Cross, Captain of Australia, and Henry vv. Suydam, the Brooklyn Dally Eagle war correspondent. James R.

Skinner BDoke at the Methodist Church. Justice Walter H. Jaycox, in speak. lng at the Star Palace Theater of the work of the Patchogue Federation, said: "If the existence of improper places are permitted in this village, the persons ho will come here are the ones who are looking for such places. Wo want to do our best to see that our Army is kept at the highest point of efficiency; we want to send the boys to France with the same healthy bodies with which they came to Camp Upton." Justice Jaycox said that when he visited the county fair last week the many farmers to whom he spoke assured him that the acreage to be planted next year will be much smaller than this year, due to the shortage of labor.

He advised his hearers to save, with the idea in view that we are to pass through a long war. "Let there be no let up in our efforts," he said, "for the Idea of a short war has cost innumerable lives." Countess Chick Mazzuchi, an Italian Red Cross nurse, who hag served three years on the fighting line, advised that persons with cold feet stay away from the scene of fighting. After describing some of the stirring scenes through which she had passed, she told her hearers to laugh at life, because if you do not laugh at life you will have to cry at It. She exhibited cartridges used by the Germans and Aus-trlans, in the bullet of which a small hole is bored containing an explosive which, when it goes off, causes a horrible internal wound.

SAYS SHE WAS ILL TREATED Has Put Big Sign of "Lodging House" on Luke Agawam Hotel. (Special to The Eagle.) Southampton, L. I September 27 Because the Hotel Mawaga, which derives its name from Lake Agawam, the name being spelled backwards, is included in the number, "of places which will lose their liquor licenses as a result of the Town Excise Board's probe, the owner and proprietor, Miss Alice Lye, has resorted to a unique plan to "get even" with the community in general for being deprived of her business of "trafficking in liquors." Miss Lye and her hotel manager, Ernest Extance, believe that undue discrimination was shown in depriving the Hotel Mawaga of its license.

Miss Lye says that a petition was secretly circulated In the neighborhood to influence the Excise Board against her place, as when the members of the board visited her hotel to investigate its condition they commended her upon its well-kept appearance, cleanliness and splendid accommodations. The hotel faces on Lake Agawam and the property extends from the lake to Main and besides the hotel building it has three smaller dwellings and tho large house facing on Main street. Miss Lye's plan for revenge for being denied her liquor license is to cut the property up into building lots and offer inducements for their sale to colored people, and to rent flats in the hotel, the small dwellings and the large house on Main street to colored or Polish families. With this idea in view she has had erected large signs upon the lawn facing Main street which read: Lots For Fale. to Colored People Only No Restrictions.

Another sign read For Kent: Flats and Rooms to Colored Families Only Another large sign has replaced the former hotel sign and upon this in bold letters is inscribed: "Lodging house," "Quick Lunch." Its con-spicuousness is evidently Intended for the annoyance of neighbors in this quiet residential neighborhood.
