The court's part, Justice Benedict says, Is not The Rev.

Charles Wfghtman of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn died last night at the Monastery of the Precious Blood. Fort Hamilton Parkway and Fifty-fourth street, where be bad been chaplain since bis retirement as rector of the Church of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, at Bensonhurst, in August, 1911. Father Wlghtman's retirement from his duties as rector of the Bensonhurst church was brought about by ill-health, and though he had been able to perform the simple services required of him at the monastery, his eondltion bad gradually grown worse, and about ten days ago hope of saving his life was given up. Father Wlghtman was known as one of the most saintly men In the Brooklyn priesthood. He had a hatred of shams and false pretenses, and sometimes lectured bis congregation for the attention they paid to worldly things that interfered with their devotions.

He was born lister ne was arraigned before juage Swann in Part General Sessions, and pleaded not guilty to an indictment ebarging him with bribery, and was released in 11,000 ball await trial. Donobue was Indloted upon testimony furnished by August C. Schwaeger, also a member of the examining board of plumbers, and who, after indictment. Strong Testimony. Soma of the strongest testimony In favor of the former President of the United States is expected from his physicians, who have either been his companions or who have been called upon to attend him.

Dr. Alexander Lambert, who was the Roosevelt family physician Washington, will be one of the witnesses, as will Dr. Rixey, former Surgeon General of the United States Navy. Depositions have also been secured from the surgeons who attended him after hs had been shot by a crank Inst fall while campaigning In Milwaukee. The Colonel's splendid physique at that time aroused the admiration of ths physicians that attended him.

Among other Intimate friends who will testify for the Colonel will be Regis H. Post, a Roosevelt appointee as Governor of Porto Rico and a Long Island resident; Olfford Pinchot, a life long friend; Lawrence Abbott, a son of the editor of the Outlook, who traveled through Europe with Colonel Roosevelt at the end of the African hunting trip; W. Emlen Roosevelt, a cousin, and his son Philip; Edmund Heller, one of the scientists that accompanied Roosevelt on the hunt in Eastern Africa, Is on his way to Marquette to testify, and a deposition has bsen made for the court records by General Wood, of the United States Army, who was Roosevelt's Intimate friend as well as his physician before the Spanish war, and his ranking officer in the Rough Rider regiment. pleaded guilty before Judge O'Sulllvan In General Sessions, to having taken graft during the ten months that he was a member of the board to the amount ot Magistrate Reynolds, in the Flatbush court today, struck another blow at Sunday rowdyism in Prospect Park, when be Imposed fines of 110 on twelve young men caught plucking flowers and fines ot on ten others who were playing baseball on the park lawns yesterday. Eight of tbe culprits went to Raymond street Jail because tbey could not raise the money to pay their lines.

"This desecration of Prospect Park must be stopped," said ths magistrate, In imposing the fines, "and If I find It necessary to mete out workhouse sentences on Blackwell's Island to break up this law lessness I will not hesitate to do so. "As I live opposite the park I am In a good position to observe conditions at first band, and I can say that tbe appearance of the place on a Monday morning Is a disgrace to the city. Tbe walks and lawns are littered with papers, tbe grass Is trampled down and some of the flower beds are ruined. Conditions are such that respectable, law-abiding people don't care to walk In the park on Sundays." Acting Captain Hulse of the park precinct started a cruslde against this rowdyism two weeks ago and has bad many prisoners haled to court for breaking shrubs, picking flowers, Uttering walks, and playing ball. At first tbe offenders were fined $2, then Magistrate Naumer last week raised the fines to $5.

But despite this previous activity, yesterday was the worst Sunday In the park so far this spring. All pleaded' guilty of breaking the city ordinances, except one, Samuel Glick of 27 Ridge Street, who pleaded not guilty, and was held In 1500 ball for examination on Wednesday, He went to Jail in default of ball, Seven fines of $10 and seven of (5 were collected, making the total money taken In $105. Those who went to jail for lack of money to pay their fines were: Henry Neighor, 22, of 106 Bridge street, Manhattan; Isaac Isaacson, 20 years old, of 88 Second place; Morris Greenberg, 18, of 128 Elm street, Manhattan; Rubin Cohen, on the votes of Campbell and Haskell, but It was difficult today to find on what they based their claim. The one thing sure Is that, the county will not be anywhere near a unit, and that the question will make a mighty interesting fight so far as Kings County is concerned. Charles S.

Devoy and Charles F. Murphy are on record in regard to Barnes, for Devoy some weeks ago Introduced Into the Kings' County Executive Committee; a proposal tasking the County In England In 1840, and came to this merely perfunctory, and he Indicated that when well educated women are not permitted to vote It is well to see to it that aliens should possess all the requisite qualifications before they are permitted to become citizens. Justice Benedict's stand caused a great stir in the court room when he thus expressed himself about letting In certain kinds of aliens. "The Congress," he said, "under the provisions of Article Section of the Constitution, bas the power 'to establish a uniform rule of naturalization' and by its acts establishing naturalization laws, as amended by the act approved June 25, 1910, it has conferred Jurisdiction upon the Federal Courts and also 'upon all courts ot record In any state having a seal, a clerk and jurisdiction In actions at law or equity, or law and equity, in which country at an early age. He made part of his classical studies st St.

Francis n.i uor, a patient at a local sanitarium. Mrs. Payne bad spent a week at' the sanitarium. There is little doubt, in the opinion of the authorities, that she was a suicide. The body was found In two feet of water after an appsrent attempt had been made to sever ber wrist arteries with scissors.

As ths result of the posting of placards, signed by tbe Brooklyn Master Barbers Association, and offering a schedule ot shorter hours to the striking Journeymen. In the windows of many shops throughout the borough, a number of strikers returned to work this morning. When the news reached the labor headquarters, at Labor Lyceum, Myrtle snd Wllloughby avenues, pickets were Immediately ssnt out to order those who bad returned to work to walk out at once. County Judge Fawcett today sent Irving Farrell of 127 Lafayette avenue, to Slug Sing for twenty years. Although only in year old, Farroll has been In Sing Sing before, and be had Just come out after serving a part of a five years sentence when be committed the crime for which be was sentsnced today.

Farrell has become known as an expert "second story man." The field of his operations has been the finest residential section of Flatbush. Before being arrost-ed he committed ten burglaries. When he was indicted, seeing that the game was up, he pleaded guilty as a second offender, thinking to get clemency. As the result of a restaurant brawl early today, Tony De Andrea, 20 years old, ot 209 Union avenue, was held in $500 ball for examination Thursday on College, Brooklyn, and followed with a course at St. Charles College, Elllcott Committee to go on record against Barnes, City, Md.

His theological studies were pursued at St. Mary's Seminary, Baltimore, and ha was ordained December 21, 1878, by Cardinal, then Archbishop. Gibbous of Baltimore. over $5,000. Aocordlng to the story told Assistant Corporation Counsel De Roode by Schwaeger, tbe amount ot money collected annually for ths ssle of plumbers licenses to men who we unable to pass tbe required examination, ran up In the tens of thousands of dollars.

A man who wished to obtain a license would go to the board of examiners, and, sccordlng to Schwaeger, was referred to blm. The would-be master plumber was told that he could have a license without any trouble, whether he could pass the examination or not, provided be was willing to pay for it. -The fee charged was according to the financial appearance of the man. In some cases as low as 3250 was taken; In others the sum ran as high as $600. The scheme wos worked by furnishing the candidate who had made bis application tor a license, with an advance copy of the questions to be asked at the and Murphy voted for this.

Reuben Haskell certainly did not say anything today to Indicate that he is against Barnes. Mr. Haskell thinks the Father Wlghtman's first assignment was as associate rector at the Church of the Sacred Heart, where he remained for about five yearB. He was then made chap BIG POLICE SHAKEUP. lain of St.

John Home, where he administered to the spiritual wants of ths children for a number of years. He was then apponted to establish the parish of the Sacred Hearts and Jesus and Mary, at Bensonhurst, where he made every possible sacrifice that the church might be built. The funeral will take piece on Wednesday from the Church of St. Catherine of Alexandria, Fort Hamilton Parkway and Forty-first street, of which the Rev. John J.

O'Neill Is rector. The solemn requiem mass will be celebrated at 10 o'clock, and ensuing examination and to which was I attaehed a copy ot the answers.

PROBING MUSICIAN'S DEATH Several Brooklyn Captains Are Transferred. Commissioner Waldo announced a "shakeup" today that involves several Brooklyn captains. Tnose changing stations are John L. Falconer, from the East Fifty-first street to the Fifth street station, made vacant by the assignment Captain John O'Brien to command the Traffic Squad a few days ago; Alfred W.

NEWS BRIEFS fix a faucet or wipe a Joint, became mas- Charles Boyd, a policeman of the municipal situation is far more Interesting just now than the Barnes issue. In fact, he can't see that at all. "Why should we waste our energies unseating Barnes or sounding the sentiment to, find out whether the people want Barnesunseated," he "when we need all of our strength for the city campaign? I am not going to bother about the question until I have' to.

Barnes wag elected two years ago. His term Is not up." Marcus the second of the men believed fo be In a doubtful class, would not discuss the matter today. He said: "I am not for and 1 am not against Barnes. When the time comes for me to vote on him, If such a time cornel, I will try to find out now my district stands, and when I do find out 1 will represent It- end vote that way." Livingston Expected to Stand By State Leader. One of the Kings leaders said that Campbell would certainly stand with Livingston.

This would split the county 4 to 4. Livingston said en Saturday that he was not In favor of unseating Barnes. He could not be reached today, but it is generally understood he believes the KlngB County organliatlon owes some favors of considerable Importance to Barnes. During the Taft campaign last year, when the sinews of war were nol easy to get. Barnes Bent between $30,000 and $35,000 into this county to aid the local organization.

Livingston Is said to have a lively remembrance of this fact and to feel that the organisation should stand for the leader. Alfred E. Vssb also Is against drastic action In the Barnes case. He said today: This Is not a time for personalities. Many people feel that BarneB is in the correct tactical position so far as the Progressives are concerned.

I myself would like to have a different State loader. I think we would be in better shape If we had one. But how can wo kirk Barnes out in the middle of hB term?" Men who attended the Progressive conference at the Republican Club In oqv nnnitlvAlv todav that If tor plumbers according to the price they paid. The result of the Investigation by Mr. De Roode and Deputy Assistant District Attorney Duell, In which they have been materially assisted by Schwaeger, has brought about a condition that will cause the cancellation ot more than 100 certificates held by men who claim to be master plumbers.

The difference between this BarneB revolt and others of the past Is that this starts from the solid Republican counties up-State where Barnes was originally strong and not from the city which has always kicked against Barnes.
