F. SILVERS HEARD FROM. William F. Silvers, a business man of prominence in the Ridgewood sec ton, and now in Enrope, has been heard from by means of a postal. Thir was received a few days ago by those charge of his drug store at Onderlonk avenue and Gates avenue, to the feet that he has reached London, but cannot get steamer accommodations.

He attributes this to the fact that the vast number of Americans who have seen in different parts of Europe are waving on account of conditions there WHERE IS CASSIDY? AT HOME, SAYS ELDER But District Attorney Cropsey Can't Find Former Queens Boss. 'PHONE NUMBER CHANGED. Eagle Reporter Gets No Response When He Rings Bell Save Barking of a Dog. Where 1s Joseph Cassidy? An absorbing mystery The whereabouts of the -time Democratic boss of turbulent Queens County has been the subject of an investigation, conducted since yesterday by District Attorney Cropsey, and many other persons are exceedingly curious as to why he is keeping from the public view and denying everybody. The indications are that Cassidy is within the protecting walls of his big home at the foot of Hollywood avenue, Far Rockaway, scarcely a doen yards from the edge of Jamaica Bay.

And one reason given for the isolation is that Mrs. Cassidy is ill and nervous and that her husband is anxious to save her as much annoyance as possible. Those who know Cassidy best insist that the action of the Appellate Division has nothing whatever to do with the fact that he is making himselt scarce, for he has the reputation of being a fighter. Inquiries started as to where Cassidy might be, after 2 o'clock Friday afternoon when District Attorney Cropsey's peremptory mandate to the convicted man's attorney to produce him in court at that hour went unobeyed. But the failure to appear might be explained by the interesung remarks of his attorney, Robert H.

Elder, who was asked last night where Mr. Cassidy was. "This idea of Mr. Cassidy evading the jurisdiction of the court in which a jury said he was guilty, is all nonsense," said Mr. Elder to The Eagle.

"If any court or any judge will make an order which will require Cassidy's presence in court, I will produce him in an hour. But I will not produce him for the personal gratification an eccentric, hysterical and ungentlemanly District Attorney. "Wy, do you know, Mr. Cassidy was at his home in Far Rockaway this morning, because he was there when I talked with him at 11 o'clock. He was there last night, too, because I talked with him then." The big old-fashioned house in which Cassidy has lived for many years gave out a glimmer of light through the door last night.

Ringing of the doorbell brought no response, save the barking of a dog. Nor was the telephone service responsive. The 'phone number was changed on Friday, a few hours after the Appellate Division in Brooklyn had handed down its afirmance of Cassidy's conviction. It was learned that Mr. and Mrs.

Cassidy came home Thursday evening, after a month's absence at the former leader's camp in the Adirondack's. Mrs. Cassidy was severely ill, and her neighbors, with whom she has long been a great favorite, were asked not to call for some days. There were two visitors Friday night, however. wore Louis T.

Walter Mrs. Walter. Walter convicted along Cassidy and William Willett, as a result of that upheaval concerning the Supreme Court nomination, but got off easier than the rest, SO far as his chances are concerned, in the Appellate Court. Walter was seen around his usual haunts yesterday, but William Willett has left Far Rockaway. He failed to make known destination.

Charles Lockwood, manager of the Columbia Theater in Far Rockaway, which Willett owns, admitted that his employer had left the village, and that he was ignorant as to where he might be. IRISH LOYAL TO ENGLAND Richard McGhee Says They Glory in Defense of Belgium. Richard McGhee, M. who has been in this country as a representative of John Redmond and the Irish Parliamentary party, sailed on the Colof the Anchor Line, yesterday for Glasgow. A large delegation of representatives of Irish organizations was at the pier to see him off.

Just before sailing he said: "I have visited Irishmen in Montreal, Boston, Philadelphia and New York, and everywhere our people have given me a message to take to our great and wise leader, John E. Redmond, that his policy has their hearty approval and that they will help him equip his company or Irish teers. "We in Ireland recognize that in the present war England has no mere selfish object in view. She went into the war on this occasion to defend principles dear to every true Irishman's heart. The independence of a heroic little nation, Belgium, was brutally violently attacked by a despot, and Irishmen are in full sympathy with Belgium glory in being able to join with England in her defense."

New names of cities and towns, many of them new and strange, appear every day in the reports of the war as the armies advance or retreats and the invaders enter new territory. An atlas giving the localities and up-to-date information becomes indtispensible. It is fortunate for all Eagle readers that this paper has seized the opportunity of supplying a splendid atlas at a merely nominal price, which fills every want of those who wish to be well posted, not only about the war, but upon every other subject upon which an atlas treats.

NEAR DEATH IN ACCIDENT. Doctors, Quick to Respond to Call, Bring Back Life After Two Hours Work. Working desperately for two hours yesterday afternoon with a pulmotor. two doctors brought back the life which had seemingly gone from the body of Mrs. Mary Hammell, 70 years old, of 150 St.

James place. The woman had been lying unconscious from gas poisoning for an ohur before the machine arrived, and it was only after the hardest kind of work that the physicians saved her life. Hammell had moved into the apartment on the first floor of the new building on October 1, and had not got used to the gas fixtures in the various rooms. Her husband, William Hammell, a retired business man, had tried to show her and had advised her not to tamper with the fixtures until he could be sure she knew how to operate them, but while he was away during the afternoon she evidently tried to turn the gas on in her bedroom. She was found lying in a huddled heap near the door by a friend, Mrs.

Addie Sommers, of 201 St. James place. Mrs. Sommers had gone to visit the aged woman and when no one answered her knocks and calls and she smelled gas very strongly, she determined to see what the matter was. In the bedroom she found her friend, and it was her presence of mind that enabled the doctors to get to the scene in quick time with their life-giving machine.

Mrs. Sommers rushed to the street and called for help, and then telephoned for a doctor who lives in the vicinity, Dr. R. S. Royce.

That physician summoned a colleague who he knew owned a pulmotor, and in a very short time after the woman had been found unconscious, Dr. J. S. Southmeyd, with his machine, was in the house pumping into the woman's lungs. For over an hour, there very little response, both doctors felt that if they could pump in enough air that the lungs would soon resume their normal functions and they refused to give up hope.

Then came the trembling of the eyelids, and from then on Mrs. Hammell began to improve. Almost two hours to the minutes after she had a been found seemingly dead by her friend, the aged woman was lying comfortably in her bed, and had been pronounced out of danger. She was not able to give any explanation of the accident which 60 nearly took her life, She said she had felt dizzy in the room before she attempted to light the gas, and then she knew nothing more until she awoke, with a terrible nauseating feeling, under the influence of the litthe pulmotor. Whether she had turned on the cock in the gas jet and then fallen in a faint, she did not know, but everything pointed to that explanation.

Mrs. Sommers said that she found the woman face downward on the floor with the door partially open, as if in falling she had opened it a bit. The room was so filled with gas, however, hat Mrs. Sommers could do little but get help, and it was other tenants and the superintendent of the apartment, Mr. Ford, who finally took the woman from the gas filled room.

COURT GRANTS DECREE. Mrs. Ditson Gets $3.600 Alimony Per Year and Counsel Fee. (Special to The Eagle.) Patchogue, L. October 3-In a suit for absolute divorce brought by Mrs.

Ester Walden Ditson against her husband, James Edward Ditson, a prominent clubman of New York, Supreme Court Justice Walter H. Jaycox has awarded Mrs. Ditson her decree, with counsel fees of $1,000 and alimony of $3,600 a year. The evidence for the plaintiff was presented by Mrs. Ditson's brother and two detectives employed by him.

On the night of May 19, 1914, they gained admittance to a New York hotel and surprised Ditson and his acquaintance. The evidence cited another occasion when the defendant was similarly discovered. Mrs. Ditson's attorney, F. Ormonde Power, asked for $4,000 alimony, saying that the defendant's property amounted to more than a quarter of a million.

From his annual income of $10,500, $4,400 of which Mr. Ditson gives to his mother, Justice Jaycox estimated the plaintiff should receive at least half, as the income was derived entirely from property left by the defendant's grandfather, Oliver Ditson, of Boston, and was not earned by the defendant. Mr. Ditson is a nephew of a wellknown musical publisher of New York, who is a trustee of the estate left the defendant by his grandfather. During the past few years, Mr.

Ditson has had a residence in Washington but most of that time has been spent in traveling. He is 35 years old and testified he had never voted, never having established a residence in any place. The attorney for the defendant was James L. Putnam. WED HALF A CENTURY Mrs.
