after a violent bombardment which lasted all yesterday afternoon the Germans, at about 8 o'clock in tho pal building, and transfer it to the Court House fund. This is to be done because of the expected strong opposition In the Board of Estimate to spending more than $600,000 on "reconstruction and improvement" of an old building. The cost of the "patch" has now mounted to $712, 528. 16, including the architect's fee. "Moreover, It is practlcaly certain that the Board of Alderman would not give its consent to such a proposition.

There was a special meeting of the court house committee of the Brooklyn Civic Club this afternoon to decide what action that organization shall take to oppose the request for additional funds for the "patch plan" when it comes before the Board of Estimate tomorrow. Borough President Pounds arrived at the club house to confer with the committee, which held its session behind closed doors. Some of thosep resent nt the meeting were William McCarroll, William O. Morrissey, John B. Creighton, Edward H.

Wilson, Thomas Riley, Alexander Macintosh, H. F. Gunnison, Jacob C. Klinck, W. W.

Taylor, George W. Bailey and Theodore F. Moench. The Board of Estimate about five years ago granted $600,000 for a new municipal building in this borough. Public Works Commissioner Voor-hies in a letter to the Board of Alder-men says: "No work has been done toward the construction of a new municipal building (in Brooklyn) except the employment of an architect.

The land to be purchased has been acquired and there now remains of the original authorization of an unencumbered balance of $125,375,111." A resolution is recommended for adoption by the board's corporate stock committee to increase the Brooklyn Court House fund from $600,000 to $720,000. This committee is composed of the Controller, Borough President Pounds and Borough President Mathewson of the Bronx. The lowest bid received for patching up the old Court House amounted to $7 12,528.15. The extra $7,472 is for Incidental expenses. Public Works Commissioner Voor-hies Informs the Board of Estimate that bids have been twice taken for the patch work, and that the combined lowest bids received amounted to not counting the architects fee, which will amount to 25, or 7 per cent.

There will be only one more meeting of the Board of Aldermen before fall and this important matter will have to be acted upon, if it is acted upon, without due consideration. Borough President Pounds announced today that he had secured the consent or the Corpora to Stock Budget Committee of the Board of Esti The Thompson Committee was balked today in its efforts to probe the personal accounts of the late Andrew Freedman, Interborough director and business manager for Richard Croker, according to August Belmont, because the Guaranty Trust Company of New York refused to give into the possession of the committee the checks drawn by Mr. Freedman, which the trust company holds as one of the executors of the Freedman estate. The committee was anxious to secure possession of almost 100 checks, aggregating thousands of dollars, drawn to the order of "Dearer." and indorsed by Jacques S. Cohen, Freedman's private secretary.

This Is a staff much in excess of that allotted tactical divisions at war strength, but it was authorized by Governor Whitman, owing to the number of organizations over and above the tactical division for war. Lieutenant William N.

Palaces the now trains were promptly christened, and palaces they will probably be until Brownsville is reached. The new order of things came Into existence at Chicago.

On the last stretch before the Windy City enfolded the Brooklynitcs, the word was passed around among the olllcers that trains entirely of sleeping cars had been assembled at Chicago and that there would be enough for ull thu men, but the rank nnd 111c did no: learn of it. They were told to pack things together, however, and when the Chicago yurds were reached they were ready. But it proved to be very much of a case of good things coming slowly. The yards loomed at hand at 20 and 11:25 for the lirst and second sections, respectively, and then for fully an hour the railroad men did various sorts of weird shufflings with the cars. When they had completed their mysterious process, the original trains were split up into half a dozen sections and were arranged in between the new trains to whi.cli the shift wan to be made.

The delegation consisted of Miss Witherspoon, Darwin J. Meserolo and Harry W.

Firrt Lieutenant Thomas O. Carlin of the Forty-seventh Regiment, was last night appointed aide-de-camp to Brigadier General J. C.

This was only one of the results of the long confinement of the men observed last night.

There was what amounted to a miniature riot, following a fist fight in Company a serie! of other fights in other rooms, nnd a concerted attempt made by a number of men to rush through tho cordon of guards which separated the men in one part of the armory from the few friends and relatives admitted Into another part. As a result, seven men are in the guard house, und Colonel Jannlcky will have to dlsopse of Ihe charges made against tlieni by thp oflicers of the guard. It was said that a sergeant of the guard, which consisted of Company M. had been struck on the nose with the butt end of a gun, and that several other soldiers had been kicked and pounded.

It asked that the money be made immediately availuble in order that equipping National Guard units Willi aircraft may begin without delay. The estimates show an Increase of $12,000,000 over the eSnate figures previously fixed, and $14,000,000 over the House Military Committee's plan.

Many of the men at first thought it was too good to be true.

They refused to get settled until thev could be assured it wasn't a Joke. The men of Captain Oscar Carlson's company were among those who accepted tho change at once as some miracle of confidence. But even they, when Captain Carlson re-turned after overseeing the arrangements, showed how all felt, "by chorusing. "Oh, Captain, don't ray you've come to tell us that it's a mistake!" The changing of quarters couldn't have come at a wort time, though.

HEALTH OF TROOPS TO BE FULLY GUARDED Washington, June 29 Those who have sons, husbands or sweethearts called to the colors with the National Guard are promised in a statement issued today by the Army Medical Department that there will be no repetition of Spanish War health conditions among the troops and that the men will have every protection afforded by science, forethought and money. The statement points out that typhoid fever, the chief enemy of the soldiers in 1898, has been virtually eliminated, and vast strides have been made In controlling other diseases. The statement declares world British Headquarters in France, Wednesday, June 2S (via London, June 23) Unusually heavy artillery firing, with numbers of trench raids, have continued all along the Piilish front during the last twenty-four hours. Here and there were Intense outbursts from artillery concentrations on both sides. The British used both eus nnd smoke to cover their trench raids.

In the Ypres salient were found the bodies of Germans killed by gas in their trench. The Germans retaliated by bombardment of the Canadian positions at Observatory Hidge and Sorrel Hill.

Yesterday for the first time no visitors were admitted into tho armory.

The continued delay in getting tile orders for departure is proving very irksome to both oflicers and men. Some of the officers in particular are grumbling over the treatment received. They say that the B'orty-seventh is more completely equipped than any other regiment that left Brooklyn or Manhattan, and that it is unfair to all to compel them to remain cooped up in an armory, when the same time could be profitably employed in drilling the men under conditions on nctun' service.
