FLORAL DESIGNS, MODERATELY PRICED. PROMPT DELIVERIES. 1831-tr ASKS COURT TO UPSET RECENT CONVICTION OF B. R. T.

INSPECTOR Col. Dykman Argues Second Fare Ejectment Case Before Appellate Division. Contending that the Public Service Commission's order directing that passengers be carried on the Flatbush ave, line for a single fare was clearly without authority and that the company was entitled to demand second fare beyond Foster Col. William N. Dykman, attorney for the Brooklyn City Railroad Company, yesterday afternoon asked Appellate Division to upset the conviction of Frank Monarch, the "special inspector" who bounced Allyn S.

Crumm, citizen, off a car for refusing to pay a second fare. Monarch, one of nine special inspec. tors arrested, was found guilty in the Court of Special Sessions of assault and fined a $100. District Attorney Lewis submitted to that court the order of the Public Service Commission and Col. Dykman in defense of the inspector sought to prove the franchise rights of the company and to show that the order was void.

The Sessions justices refused to admit such evidence. were entitled to show that the order of the Public Service Commission was void and worthless," argued Col. Dykman. "It was a most singular order without an ancestor and, hope, without any descendants. I think after this order is reviewed there will never be another like it.

If the order were enforcable the Public Service Commission itself would have enforced it, but there was a scramble on the part of the public officials to see who would be the first to aid the public against this outrage. We contended that our inspector was entitled to use necessary force to eject Crumm, who really was not a passenger, inasmuch as he took a ride for the purpose of litigating a question in dispute. "The town of Flatbush franchise allows us to charge a second fare at that old town line, but we exacted it only the Flatlands line. Even in the face of the Public Service Commission's document we were entitled to collect our second fare, for we had obtained a writ of certiorari for a court review and that acted as a stay and made the order inoperative." District Attorney, urged the Court to Capt. Ralph E.

me Hemstreet, Assistant that the Public Service Commission's uphold the contention. He declared order was law so far as the conduct of the company and its servants were concerned and that they should have obeyed it until such time as a court of competent jurisdiction modified it or set it aside. "Surely the Court of Special Sessions did not have the declare the order illegal or worthless." ARREST IN BOND CASE. Henry C. Miller, 28 years old, of 263 Wyckoff Brooklyn, was taken to police headquarters today by Detective Isaac Mindheim, having been arrested last night at West Brookville, Sullivan County, N.

His early life was spent in New York City, and he was a member and foreman of old Truck Company No. 5 of the Volunteer Fire force that had its headquarters on Chambers and he was one of the oldest members of the Volunteer Firemen's Association. During the Civil War, Mr. McMannus went to the front with a New York volunteer regiment and later enlisted in the 165th Regiment of Pennsylvania.

It was organized by Col. Elmer E. Ellsworth, the first Union officer killed in the war. Its members held annual reunions after the war, the last one being at Chicago, in October, 1910, when the reunions were discontinued because the few survivors were becoming too old to travel--a wide contrast to the time when in service every man in the regiment could turn handsprings, some of them while carrying muskets. Mr.

"We are going out to see what happens." he said. It is understood that the county leader will not lead any revolt on behalf of his choice. "Mr. McCooey," said one close to him, "will propose the name of Pershing to the leaders. He will state his reasons and state them strongly.

Friends of the County Leader said that he had received news from Washington of importance bearing on the certain high influences were seeking Pershing boom.

The train included 4 compartment sleeping cars, a diner, baggage and observatoin cars---seven cars in all. The trip will cover 22 days, including the stay at the convention. Another batch of 27 Brooklynites will leave tomorrow for the Democratic Convention. This group, headed by County Clerk William E. Kelly, will start from the Grand Central at 2 o'clock in a special car which will be attached to limited express trains throughout the trip.

Considerable mystery surrounds the divorce suit brought in the Supreme Court by Maj. Edwin F. Barlow, U.

THE WOMAN VOTER Women are not yet entitled to a "Afty-fifty" share with the men in political consideration, Mrs. Helen Varick Boswell told the members of Kings County Republican Committee at Kismet Temple last night. That many shared her sentiments was indicated by the large measure of applause which greeted the statement.

"We will have to serve our years of apprenticeship and win our spurs as the men did," she declared. Mrs. Boswell was one of the two women delegates from this State who sat in the Republican Convention at Chicago and one of the 28 women delegates from the entire Nation. Al-' though New York Republicans sent only two women delegates, this State did better in its allotment to the women than many others which have had woman suffrage for a much longer period, she declared. The presence of three women and one man on the platform at the Kismet Temple meeting furnished an ocular novelty for the spectators.

The women were Miss Elizabeth Collier, vice president of the County Committee, who presided in the absence of Chairman Vass and capably demonstrated her ability to handle the reins; Mrs. Boswell and Miss Stein. stenographer to the committee. The solitary man was Secretary Fred H. Stevenson.

There will be no excursion steamers to take spectators outside Sandy Hook if the present steamboat inspection laws remain in force, according to a statement made today by Fred A. Bishop, president of the Iron Steamboat Company, Mr.

Bishop issued the statement after having been in consultation with officials of Central Railroad of New Jersey, the New England Steamship Company, Eastern Steamship Company and the Old Dominion Line. So far as is known, there will only be one boat taking passengers out 10 the yacht races. This is the Highlander, which regularly plies to Bear Mountain. This boat has been chartered by the New York Yacht Club at a charter fee said to be $6,500 per day. high charter rate is said to be necessary in order that the ship be made to comply with the law governing the steamboat inspection service.

edition Dec. 17. 1919. Because this law is impractical is the reason given by the excursion boat companies for their statement that excursion boats cannot be equipped and operated to carry passengers to the yacht races. The provisions of this law which interfere with such plans of the steamboat operators are made to apply in the interval of May 15 to Sept.

15, inclusive. This law provides that any passenger steamship on ocean routes less than 20 miles off shore are required to provide accommodations in lifeboats, life rafts and pontoons for 70 percent of the passengers carried. It is further provided that of this lifesaving equipment enough must be lifeboats to accommodate 50 percent of the passengers. In order to comply with the law the lifeboats, life rafts and pontoons must be fully equipped with all such accoutrements as hatches, lamps, oars, masts, sails, boathooks, cans of oil and such authorized lifeboat equipment. Each raft and lifeboat must also be equipped with watertight containers holding two pounds of provisions each passenger carried, and other receptacles containing quart of fresh water for each passenger carried.
