Likely That New Voters May Organize New Party to Gain Ends, (Special to The Eagle.) Riverhead, L. June 19-In the case of Mrs. Ida B. Sammis of Huntington being an ostensible candidate the Assembly nomination in the Second Assembly District next fall, the plot seems to thicken. It is learned now from the women's enrollment ballots just filed Mrs Sammis has enrolled as a Repub- MRS.

Murphy of Huntington not only for the election but for the nomination. In other words, the sttaement is made that she will go into his own primary nomination.

and She try is to said beat to him be for of the opinion that she will have a fair chance to do this because there are more women than men enrolled in Huntington town, and the women enrollment from the entire Second Assembly District is said to be very heavy. 'The additional interesting information is given that if she should fail in landing the Republican nomination she will still have other strings to her political bow, for it is figured that she will quite certainly have the Prohibition nomination, and it may too, that the women in the Second District will likewise organize an out-and-out women's party, making her the Assembly nominee in that. There is considerable belief that the women are going to stick closer together than some of the old line parties had anticipated, and might not hew closely to voting for a Democrat because he or she was a Democrat, or vice versa as to the Republican party. A hurried survey of the ballots here yesterday indicated that Riverhead is another town where the women enrollment will outnumber that of the men. Such an avalanche, of enrollment ballots was the Board of Elections late Saturday night, and by mail yesterday that the clerks estimate the total enrollment now as about 9,000, a jump of 4,000 over the estimate of three or four days ago.

MONSTER PICNIC FOR L. I. FARMERS Nassau and Suffolk to Entertain Themselves and Up State Men. (Special to The Eagle.) Riverhead, L. June 19--A monster farmers' picnic and automobile trip through Long Island to study farming conditions is a novelty that has just been arranged by the Farm Bureau of Suffolk County, with the cooperation of the Nassau Farm Bureau and the New York State Potato Growers' Association, according to General Manager R.

C. Parker of Riverhead. The big affair will be held three days, August 8, 9 and 10. This is considered something novel in picnics and it is expected now that it only be the biggest so social thing of the kind ever attempted on Long Island, but that it will also have much of a practical value. It is expected that many up-State farmers interested in selling certified seed potatoes to Long Island will come here for the -day picnic and conference.

All who want to participate, it is announced, will be provided with free automobile conveyance. The plan is to start out on Thursday afternoon, August 8, for a trip through the Hamptons, visiting the large potato fields and inspecting the potato and corn experiments and tests that are being conducted on several farms by the Farm Bureau. Friday will be the Farm Bureau picnic day. The morning will be given over to another inspection trip through North Side farms from Baiting Hollow to Southold, meeting at Fleets Neck, on the shores of Peconic Bay, at noon, where the monster picnic dinner will be served. The afternoon will be devoted to speaking and "a genuine get together" between the up-State and Long Island farmers.

Saturday farmers will visit Nassau County farms, the Farm Bureau there being responsible for a battery of free automobiles to take them on a sight seeing and inspection trip. The committee that is arranging for this get-together of all Long Island farmers and many from up-State points includes Henry R. Talmage, Riverhead; Henry J. Reeve and George H. Smith, representing the Suffolk County Farm Bureau, and E.

V. Titus, former Congressman William W. Cocks, and Mr. Underhill, representing the Nassau County Farm Bureau. AUCTION SALES.

jel9 Irish Wives of Germans Protest Being Registered Several women of Irish nativity had married German aliens and were therefore compelled to register at the Jamaica Town Hall yesterday expressed indignation because they were placed in what they termed humiliating positions because their husbands had neglected to take out citizenship papers long before this country entered the world conflict. "It doesn't seem right," said one, "that a loyal American woman of Irish ancestry should be given the Hun taint because she happens to be the wife of a German. I. for one, intend to keep my husband within bounds, and if he dares utter anything pro-German you can bet I'll give it to him. I have a broomstick handy, and I know how to use it." And this woman looked as though she was fully capable of keeping Friend Husband in his proper place.

Other Irish women who came to register uttered similar sentiments. The old Coroner's courtroom in the Jamaica Town Hall is being used by the police of the 120th Precinct for the registration of German alien women. Police Captain George Kauff has selected Sergeants Thomas B. Goodman and Frank Long to take charge of the registrations, and Patrolmen Hollman and Bunte do the honors as fingerprint experts and German interpreters where it is necessary. Yesterday a German who is an offi- QUEENS BUSY OVER POLITICAL TANGLE Nomination Depends on Expiration of Mitchell's Term.

One of the most interesting political questions of the day in Queens is when the term of Sheriff Samuel Mitchell ends. The two factions, that of the Connolly organization and that of Mitchell, the differ Keating considerably followers, on including that point. The fact that numerous self- appointed candidates, some them well up in the workings of the Connolly organization, have recently announced their desires to be a candidate for Sheriff in the November election, in-. timates that the Democratic organization is preparing to place a candidate in the field. At Democratic headquarters, however, nothing definite could be learned on the matter.

These leaders are believed to hold to the opinion that Mitchell is only filling the unexpired term of Sheriff Stier, which ends on December 31 of this year. Mitchell holds that he is only serving the first year of a full three- year term, and that on January 23, 1917. when a the special election was held, he was elected for a full term of three years, the term to start on January 1, 1918. At that time the Republicans claimed that he would only serve during Stier's time. The Democratic organization stood behind Mitchell on his three claim.

The was before Mitchell and the organization disagreed. Since the Sheriff has been in disfavor with certain Queens leaders, the Democratic organization has reversed its opinion and has taken up the claim of the Republicans, which cuts just two years from Mitchell's time in office. It is a tangle that will have to be straightened out by the courts. but the question that is worthy of consideration is how is the matter going to get before the courts. Several politicians said yesterday that about the only way for the organization to clear up the situation be for them to nominate a candidate and file his name with the Board of Elections.

If that body accepted the name, then it would be up to Mitchell to sue for an injunction restraining the board from placing the name on the ballot. If. on the other hand, the Board of Elections refused to accept the name, it would be up to the Connolly organization to sue for a mandamus compelling the placing of the name on the ballot. Either way would settle the question. A decision in favor of either faction would be carried to the higher courts on an appeal.

FEDERAL OFFICIALS TO MAKE TOWNS DRY All of Nassau County to Be Included. Hempstead, L. June 19-Lieutenant John Cornell of the Law Enforcement Department at Washington, D. with Captain Clare Tobin of the Camp Mills Military Police, attended a meeting of the Hempstead Town Board yesterday and suggested that a resolution be passed requesting the State Commissioner of Excise to suspend liquor licenses in the town while Camp Mills is in use by the Government and Hazelhurst Field is an aviation camp. They intimated that if action is not taken by the town officers the Government will act on its own accord.

The board voted to lay the subject before the citizens of the town at a mass meeting to be held Thursday night. Captain Tobin says he will request the town boards of North Hempstead and Oyster Bay to do away with liquor licenses in their towns also. Close Six Places in Huntington. Huntington, L. June 19-Six hotels and saloons in East Northport, Commack and Kings Park came under the ban on hotels within a fivemile radius of a training camp yesterday, when they were ordered by the officers of the aero training camp at Commack to close up their bars.

Last week two aero squadrons arrived and struck camp at the corner of Northport avenue and Jericho Turnpike.

c. C. Adams Is Named Village President at Election In Lawrence. (Special to The Eagle.) Long Beach, L. 19-The ticket headed by former Senator William H.

Reynolds triumphed yesterday at the village election in Long Beach, after one of the most interesting campaigns in the history of the village. The result was a disappointment to the opposition ticket headed by William B. Wilson, which was well organized and worked hard. Although at times the excitement ran high in the polling place, which was located in the village office, Park street, when eighty voters were challenged, it was soon quelled by Deputy State Superintendent of Elections William H. Brown and his assistants, Leonard, E.

Maddox, Robert Williamson and John B. Roth. The election officials had been in the village since Monday, warning alleged illegal voters not to attempt to cast their As further safeguard, the opponents of the Reynolds nominees offered a reward of $500 for the arrest and conviction of everyone who voted without a legal right. Shortly before the closing of the polls Candidate William H. Reynolds got into an argument with Albert Ramsay, commodore of the Long Beach Yacht Club, over what the former called the latter's pernicious activity in the election.

Mr. Reynolds said that Mr. Ramsay, although owning property in the village, was an and did not have a right to take part in the village election. He insisted that Ramsay be compelled to leave the immediate vicinity of the polling place. Ramsay refused and finally policeman hove in sight and Mr.

Reynolds moved away. This was the only unpleasant incident of the day, About one-third of the voters were women and handled their ballots as quickly as the men. The vote was as follows: William H. Reynolds, People's party, for President, 160; William B. Wilson, Liberty party, 86; majority, 74.

McGuire, Liberty party, 87: majority, 72; James H. Griffith trustee, one year, People's party, 129; Arthur T. Smith, Loerty party, 114; majority, 15. Herman Broesel and John Gracy, trustees for two years, People's party, 143 and 136; Robert Shaw and Oscar F. Ehrle, Liberty part, 94 and 98: majorities.

Broesel, 49, and Gracy, 38; Cassius M. Coleman, police justice, People's party. 143; William Loftus, Liberty party. 83; majority, 60. The number of ballots cast was 249.

There were' no propositions submitted. Senator Reynolds states that yesterday's victory is a vindication and means not only a triumph for good government in Long Beach, but a personal expression of confidence. The leader of the Liberty party. Samuel S. Whitehouse, says they will continue the fight next year and was entirely satisfied with the showing.

He added. and see who gets $500 reward offered by our ticket for illegal voting." Lawrence Holds Election. Lawrence, L.

NATURALIZE 700 MEN AT CAMP MILLS Judge Morschauser Officiates at Special Term of Court. (Special to The Eagle.) Camp Mills, L. June 19-About 700 alien soldiers, members of the various squadrons located at Aviation Field No. 2. Garden City, L.

The men were brought to the building where the court was convened, by some officer of their command, who signed the various papers filled out by the soldier wishing to become a citizen.

After he 'had Alled out the necessary papers and had taken oath of allegiance, he was presented with a certificate showing that he was a citizen of this country. The act makes it possible for any soldier or sailor in the United States Army or Navy to become a citizen in this court, no matter how little time he may have lived in this country. This differs from persons in civilian life, in that they have to be residents of the United States for five years before they can become citizens. The court was held under the direct supervision of the Bureau of Naturalization, Washington, D. C.

The couple are now on a wedding trip in the Berkshire Hills. The announcement of the wedding is a surprise to the friends of the young couple.

Mr. O'Connell attended the meeting of the town board in his official capacity on Monday afternoon and not one of his friends was aware that he was to wed the following day. The wedding is the culmination of a romance which began when Mr. O'Connell assisted his bride to her home after she had met with an accident. The young bride is fond of outdoor life, and while horseback riding through the Plandome section her horse became frightened at a passing automobile and ran away.

Vanderbilt Sr. here has finally been accepted by the United States Government for a convalescent hospital, Work has already been started to remove valuable furniture and art objects from the main house to the coach house. It will be a very expensive undertaking on the part of the Government to make the residence hygienic and acceptable for a hospital, as many of the walls are covered with embossed silks and satins. These wall ings and draperies must be removed and after the Government has finished with the property must all be replaced at Government expense. Mr.

Vanderbilt, who has already given two of his residences in France for war relief work, has offered the hospital for duration of the war and for a year thereafter if desired. The library of the residence is to be left as it is for the use of the Government patients. The estate comprises about 900 aeres, much of which will be cultivated another year to satisfy hospital needs. It is planned to pitch a number of tents about the spacious lawns which run right down to the edge of beautiful Great River, on the banks of which the Idle Hour stands. Mr.

Justice McAvoy in the Supreme Court yesterday granted a writ of mandamus, compelling the New York and Queens Gas Company to extend its mains and service to Douglaston, Douglas Manor and Little Neck. The proceeding was brought by the Public Service Commission, which had issued an order directing the gas company to supply gas to the above named places, which the company declined to do. The gas company contended that it should not be required to furnish gas to the communities, as it would be against the wishes and policies of the War Industries Board, in that it was an unessential undertaking at this time.

company argued there was no present necessity for gas in those places. The gas company claimed that the minimum cost of a transmission and distributing high pressure system would be at least $135,000, and possibly much more, were the company compelled to comply with an order issued on February 1 of this year by the Public Service Commission. It is claimed by the gas company that the actual cost of manufacturing and livering to the Douglaston community would be not less than $1.42 per thousand cubic feet, which would not allow any return whatever on the company's investment. The cost of this gas, including a return of a mere non rate of 6 per cent. on the investment, assuming $150.000 as the cost of transmission and distributing mains, would be not less than $3.26 per thousand cubic feet.

A statement issued by the gas company yesterday reads: "To comply with the Commission's order to supply gas from Flushing, the New York and Queens Gas Company says, would result to it in a yearly loss of $11,000. This would be equal to a loss of $2.26 on every thousand cubic feet of gas sold in addition to the present loss of $74.472.11 per annum on reasonable value of the gus company's property.
