Out of an almost cloudless sky the sun shone down today on the depleted ranks of the Grand Army of the Republic and caressed the battle flags as the gray veterans walked along Bedford avenue and past the reviewing stand on Eastern Parkway. There were 700 of the old soldiers In line burdly enough to make a full regimentand about 200 rode in carriages, It was noticed that the line of carriages was longer than ever before. There are now veterans of the big war living In Brooklyn, but many of them were too feeble to participate In the long hike. Those who live along the route followed by the parade, hung out their flags and sat in their arm chairs by the window where they could watch their old comrades file by and give them a cheer. Since the last parade, a year ago, about 100 of the once great army have passed away, and they are dying at the rate of twelve or fifteen a month.

Colonel Daniel Simmons, chairman of the Memorial Committee of the G. A. said today, that in five or six years there will be nu one left to parade. Reception at Hanover Club Precedes Parade.

It is the present Intention of the leaders in all three political parties In New York County to ludorsc Eugene A. Pbll-bln for election to the Supreme Court. Phllbln and Bartow S. Weeks were re- Following a conference between Governor Sulzer and District Attorney Whitman, at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, which lasted from 12:30 until nearly 4 o'clock this morning. It became known today that the Governor Is determined to take Immediate action on charge formulated by the Curran Aldermaulo Investigating Committee, recommending the removal of Police Commissioner Waldo.

Allegations of a serious uature, including that of dereliction in the performance of his duty, will be made against Waldo as a result of the testimony before the aldermanle committee, and the many developments that have arisen exposing police graft since the arrest of former Lieutenant Charles Becker, under sentence of death for the murder of Herman Rosenthal, the gambler. It was a long and earnest talk that Governor Suiter and District Attorney Whitman had in the early hours this morning. In the main dining room of the Waldorf. The entire police situation was gone over In the minutest detail. Every phase of the conditions In the Police Department, which have been laid bare by the testimony of witnesses before the aldermanle committee and the subsequent disclosures brought about by the trial of Becker, the four gunmen, the Xour former Inspectors Hussey, Sweeney, Thompson and Murtba; the confessions of former Captain Thomas W.

Walsh, Eugene Fox, his collector, and the revelations that were laid before juries In the trials of Hartigan and Robinson, two plain clothes men now serving sentences In Sing Sing, the former for perjury and the latter for bribery, were discussed by New York Couuty's prosecutor uud the Chief Executive of the State. While District Attorney Whltmau was Ih an uncommunicative mood when aroused by reporters today, he admitted that at the conference he had with the Governor, they discussed at length police conditions generally In New -York City, and particularly the charges which the Curran report, which Is expected to be adopted unanimously on Monday, recommending the removal of Waldo, will bring up for discussion. This report seeking the ousting of the Police Commissioner, In which the minority members of the Curran Committee, including Alderman Frank Dowling, will concur, will, be presented to Governor Bulzer Immediately upon its adoption, and early action is anticipated. and Sulzer Have Had Several Conferences on Police. Mr.

Whitman baa had several conferences with Governor Sulzer. it was learned today, at which the conditions in the Police Department were discussed aud the advisability of removing Waldo from office. This morning, It developed, the entire situation was gone over between the Governor and the District Attorney, and upon the latter's recommendation declined tu say what, if any. recommendations he made to the Governor, aside to state that they had discussed at much length the disclosures that have been made since Rosenthal wns shot down at the command of Becker. It is known, however, that Whitman and Waldo have been estranged ever since the police scandal was first aired.

Nothing that will In the slightest reflect upon Commissioner Waldo as to his honesty will be charged against him In the recommendations for his removal that will be presented to the Governor. Bui ha will be charged with incompetency and dereliction of duty In not discovering the existence of graft before it was laid bare In other quarters. Numerous other revelations having to do with the appointment of convicted men to the police force, graft in the boiler squad and various other squads In the department, the alleged leniency shown to men found guilty of violations of rules of the department, and divers other disclosures that were brought about by the Aldermanle inquisitors all will play an Important part In Sulzer's determination to take prompt action. Bunnan made his first stop for oil and gasoline and Goux took the lead at 140 miles. De Palma relieved Bragg at the wheel of a Mercer at 145 miles.

The 111 luck came when after Mann had doubled in the second inning with one out and thereby what wus destined to be the only hit off Ragau In seven innings, and Devlin had popped to Fisher, Charley Stengel absolutely and unqualifiedly muffed a line fly from Whaling. It was a man's size error, for Mann scored from sfceond and Whaling took third. Tyler fanned and Whaliim was left.

Tower and Dunning were taken to tho field hospital, where it was found that Tower's right leg had been broken and three of Dunning's ribs fractured. Tower was severely bruised.

The car was wrecked. Burman put the fire out in his car and brought cheers from the thousands when he sped down the homestretch about ten laps behind. He stopped at the pits to put on a new carburetor. The drivers are suffering Intensely from the heat. Five nations United States, England.

France, Germany and Italy are battling today for supremacy In the automobile world lu the third annual 500-mile race, now being held here. Everything at the speedway emphasizes the International phase ot the contest. Flags of all nations are flying from the grandstands, and from the pits there arises a Jargon of many tongues from the helpers of the foreign drivers. Betting grew brisker with Burman still ruling the favorite by a slight margin over Anderson's Stutz. Considerable money was being placed on the foreign cars.

The speed of the foreign cars seemed to give the bettors more confidence in them, although their ability to withstand the terrific vibrative strain ot the brick course aud avoid tire trouble had been questioned. The entries are: 1 Nyberg. H. Endleolt. 2 Stutz, Men.

Tha Thirteenth. Forty-seventh aud Tweniy-third Regimen Is vied with each other to see which should carry off the marching honors.

The Naval Militia, Troop and the Second Signal Corps did their prettiest and made as fine a showing as they possibly could, but the crowds recognized the fact that the day really belonged to the men in faded blue aud reserved their chief applause for the veterans. As the first blue post flag fluttered far down Eastern Parkway, there was a craning of necks in the reviewing stand, and General Catlin stood erect. It proved to be Rankin Post No. I which headed the G. A.

R. division with an old fellow in front helping himself along on a stout cane. General Catlin took off bis chapeau and waved It. Pitifully small the posts were. Some, ot them numbered less than a dozen men.

The largest post of all was the IT. S.

One of the touching pictures tha parade was that of Warren Posr No.

A boy in khaki held the heavy drum but the old fellow made the slicks fly as the fifer beside him shrilled out In quavering notes the stirrins: strains of "Yankee Dor.dle." Down the broad roadway they passed into th- distance with the drum still bravely beating the accompaniment and the fife away until they were lopt in the dlstanep. Some of Genrral Catlin's old command, members of Mansfield Post, too old to walk, rode in the carriages. As they approached the reviewing stand their dim eyes were alight with pride in thel" commander and the oldest veteran them all stood up like a brigadier. "Thera he Is," he cried, and all the old fellows gazed as one at their grizzled commander.

"Here are jour old boys, called one of them, his voice rarryinTf above the tumult of the crashing drums. General Catlin's face flushed wlt pleasure and he shouted back "If this le of mine would let mc I would jump right out among you, boys:" Behind tho veterans were the Snonls.

Although the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children at 105 Scher-merhorn street has made every effort to discover the Identity of the 3-year old boy who was picked up in Prospect Park last Saturday night by Patrolman Dean of the 173d Precinct, no one has yet come forward to claim the child. The case is one of the most unusual the society has known, for when parents abandon their children, the society offl-eers say, it Is usually done when the child Is a mere infant.
