a 6 TUESDAY THE BROOKLYN DAILY TIMES DECEMBER 3, 1918 LONG ISLAND NEWS TELLS OF RAID AT GOSHEN INN Detective's Testimony Enliv- ens Warner's Divorce Suit. Mineola, Dec. Intended to show that Mrs. Kensington, near Great Neck, was unduly familiar with Harry Holbrook, of the Fickling Enameling Company at Long Island City, was introduced by counsel for Charles Blaine Warner, vice president of the Warner Sugar Refining Company, at the opening of the trial of his action for absolute divorce in the Supreme Court here yesterday. Kitty Passmore, formerly a maid at the Kensington home of Warners, and her husband, Percy, testified they had seen Holbrook stroking Mrs.

Warner'e hair. Ex-Judge Isaac Oeland, representing the plaintiff, told the Mrs. Warner and the respondent had registered under assumed names at the New Grand Hotel in the Catskills Mountains 'and Goshen Inn. of Orange County, and that at the latter hostelry C. A.

Warner, father of the plaintiff, and a squad of detectives, found them together in a room. Mrs. Warner registered as "Mrs. Hollis," and Holbrook used the name of Hart, the attorney said. The alleged acts of infidelity at these hotels and a Manhattan apartment house were said to have occurred during August and September of this year.

Mrs. Warner has been receiving $1,500 a month from her husband pending trial of the action. She is represented by Max Steuer. John J. Gardner, a private detective, proved the star witness.

He told of following Holbrook, Mrs. Warner and another wiman to a half-dozen places, and of their final stopping at the Goshen Inn. He at once got into communication with Mr. Warner, the father of the plaintiff, and when the latter came to the hotel wit a halfdozen other men, they broke. into Room No.

6. They saw Holbrook, attired in pajamas, and Mrs. Warner, in her night robe, the detective testifled. Mr. identified his daughterla warnes.

Warner ran to him, said the detective, and cried, "Daddy; there is nothing wrong about this. Kiss me and don't tell Blaine!" his opening, May steuer, for the defendant, told the jury that there was evidently a plot to ruin Mrs. Warner. He explained the testimony that was to follow by saying that the detectives, when they broke into the room, found Mrs. Warner and her woman friend in the same room; that he shoved her into the room with Holbrook and then called his friends.

HOW TO ACQUIRE HAIR BEAUTY You can enjoy a delightful shampoo with very little effort and for a very trifling cost, if you get from your druggist's a package of Canthrox and dissolve a teaspoonful in cup of bot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. Your shampoo is now ready.

Just pour a little at a time on and hair until both are entirely covered by the daintily perfumed preparation that thoroughly dissolves and removes every bit of dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After rinsing the hair dries quickly with a fluffiness that makes it seem heavier than it 1s, and takes on a rich luster and a softness that makes arranging it a pleasure.

Riverhead, Dec. -When the actions against Joseph Loris and Tony Loris, of East Hampton, who were indicted by the Grand Jury for selling liquor without a license, were called at the opening of the County Court here yesterday, their counsel, Harry G. Stephens, requested that both cases gO over the term because Sergt, Samuel McVey and Trooper Harry Byk, of the State Constabulary who are the complaining witnesses against the defendants, have been arrested on the charge of perjury in connection with the case. Judge Vunk set both cases down for trial on December 11. According to Lawyer Stephens, Sergt.

McVey and Trooper Byk made an affidavit that they purchased liquor of the defendants on September 22, and the indictments read that the "booze" was procured on September 15. McVey and Byk were arraigned before Justice of the Peace Sherrill, in East Hampton, on the charges of perjury and waived examination and requested that the hearing go over until this Thursday to enable them to obtain the State Attorney General's office to defend them. The officers deny they committed any offense, declaring that the inconsistencies in the affidavits and the indictments are due to an error. Only one of the six civil actions on the calendar was ready for trial at this term of the County Court and a large number criminal actions went off or the defendants changed their pleas from not guilty guilty. Court will be in session, however, at least two weeks.

Among those who changed their please from not guilty to guilty were John Reichert, selling a revolver, unlawfully; Sam Brown, Mattituck, selling liquor without a license; Isadore Wilson, a druggist of Greenport, who sold "booze" for "cough medicine" a license; Frank Bambilla, criminal assault, second degree; Charles B. Phipard, operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated. Otto Magdefrau, of Mattituck, pleaded guilty to selling liquor without a license. James J. Coles, of Riverhead, who was indicted on the charge of assault in the second degree, pleaded guilty to assault in the third.

degree and District Attorney Le Roy M. Young accepted that plea. Robert P. Griffing and Bernard H. Lord, attorneys for the six Riverhead china belonging Bon Marche young men tiho destroyed a crate of in this village during the Fourth of July celebration, asked for separate trials for each defendant and the requests were granted.

It is believed that all the defendants will be acquitted. When they discovered that they had destroyed the china they offered ed to pay the full amount of the damage to the owner, but for some reason they were held for and indicted by the Grand Jury. District Attorney Young told Judge Vunk that George McD. Hoblitzel, who was indicted for grand larceny, second degree, had skipped. Hoblitzel is the clever chap who swindled a number of rich and poor persons in Sayville out of a large amount of money by selling them worthless mining stock.

His bail bond was declared forfeited and a bench warrant has been issued for his arrest. Others who were' reported A8 fugitives were William H. Parish, indicted for abandonment of a child, and Charles Schneider, grand larceny, second degree. Their bail bonds were also declared forfeited and warrants were issued for their arrest.

PAIR HELD IN COURT Detective Ends Struggle on Deck of the Itu. The waterfront in the vicinity of Joralemon street was roused early today by a disturbance on the steamship Itu, just in from South America.

The crowd of spectators on the docks could make out two figures rolling on the deck of the vessel, clawing, scratching, wielding knives and shrieking in strange tongues. While everyone else seemed inclined to let the fight proceed to death, Detective George Priday, of headquartors wtaff station on Poplar street, went aboard the vessel and separated the combatants. They were Jules De Santos and Luigi Barboglia, members of the Itu's crew. Barboglia employed long keen dirk, it was said and De Santos a razor about two feet long. Arraigned before Magistrate Steers, De Santos was held $1,000 bail on a charge of felonious assault, and Barboglia in $500 bail for carrying a concealed weapon.

CHRIST CHURCH WOMEN VOTE Will Have Say in All Matters Pertaining to Welfare. At the annual meeting of Christ P. E. Church last night, held in the Partridge Memorial Chapel, Division and Bedford avenues, women were given right to vote on all matters pertaining to the welfare of the The Rev. William Sheafe Chase, rector of the church, made it plain to the officials that the time has arrived when the continued success of the church can only be accomplished through the thorough ion of the women.

This can no only be obtained, he pointed out, by giving them voice in all considerations on church improvements or changes. Rector Chase said that by the extension of the vote to the women it does not mean necessarily that they must be elected on the official board. They can help with more effect, ne stated, by simply casting their vote for or against that may he offered for a decision. From the were read. the church is in a flourishing condition.

Emphatic denial was made that there is an amalgamation with another church in Williamsburgh being contemplated. This rumor, Rector Chase declared, has sprung from a ground where the earth is not sufficiently rich enough to feed it, and where it will die. Arrangements will soon be made for the receiving of the boys of the church who have served their country in France. Just whether there will be an entertainment or banquet for the boys when they return has not been definitely decided. This point will be settled at a meeting which will be held next month, and at which many interesting committee reports will be read.

At the meeting Henry S. Gorham was elected warden for two years. Three vestrymen were chosen for three years. They are: Arthur A. Skinner, Capt.

Kenneth C. Wilson and John C. Peyser. 16th A. D.

Gus Gabriel, 18 SEEK PAY FOR BUNGALOWS, -Sue State for Removals at Rockaway Point. Eighteen bungalow owners of Rockaway Point are seeking to recover are $100 each for the removal of bungalows, necessitated when the State gave over the property to the Government. Richard E. Weldon, their counsel. contends the State should pay for the removal of the bungalows after the property had been taken over for fortification purposes.

The matter in question, on the face of it, seems simple to settle, according to Weldon, and he said today he was looking only for equitable restitution. The argument of the State appears to be that the claimants are not entitled to any recompense because when the prpoerty was given over to the State the buildings went with it. The State declares the buildings were standing on the property when the State deeded it over to the Federal Government and 'went with the property. The buildings were not removed it is said, until after the Federal Government took title to the property. The Attorney-General's office will contend, it is understood, that there is no just claim against the State.

Major Hatch directed the removal of the bungalows. He retained some for barracks and others he ordered removed. there is any claim for remuneration, it should be made to the Federal Government, according to the proposed argument of the General's office.

Aliens resident in York State are required to enroll.

Any boy within the age limits who is physically unable to enroll should send a representative to today, nearest public school house.

DAMAGED FOOD Health Inspectors Appear Against L. I. City Dealers. Inspectors of the Department Health have started a crusade against store keepers and delicatessen dealer in the upper section of Long Island City who have been offering for sale food that is not up to standard. The crusade has come as the result of complaints made by residents of the section.

Recently some of the women who have been doing duty in connection with the Home Service Section of the Red Cross discovered that there was a tendency on the part of small storekeepers to sell bad food to customers. Most of these dealers cater to the poorer classes, and they have been able to get trade because their prices appeared to be lower than those charged first class dealers. When it was found that they were making just as much proft as the other dealers and were giving their customers less for their money because the goods sold were of a low grade, complaints were made to the Board Health. Yesterday more than half a dozen of these dealers were before Magistrate Kochendorfer on summons. The inposed for sale rotten vegetables, spectors charged that they, had wormy fruit, sour canned goods.

In every case before the Magistrate the dealer admitted that he had the goods on hand and did not dispute the statement of the condition of the articles made by inspectors. "You men are profiteers of the worse kind," said Magistrate Kochendorfer. "The people come to your store they hope to reduce the cost of living and yet you increase it for them by giving them what they cannot or ought not to eat." The dealers were then fined from $2 to $5. A. crusade against dealers who keep Sunday has resulted from complaints made to the Police Commissioner.

Merchants in the Steinway Broadway sections some time ago agreed to combine in a movement for Sunday closing, and a number of merchants have kept their stores closed ever since. Some, however, have violated agreement, and when this became apparent those merchants who kept to their agreement engaged the services of private detectives purchase goods at the open stores on Sunday, and then Ale complaints against the offenders before the magistrate. Magistrate Miller refused to entertain the complaints of the private detective. saying that the police were fully competent to attend to the matter and there was a possibility that the work of private detectives in this connection might be open to the criticism of unfairness or jealousy. Then those interested in the Sunday closing movement made complaint to Police Commissioner Enright.

and as a result policemen and detectives have been busy in the district for the past two Sundays. A week ago four merchants were fined by Magistrate Miller and yesterday three brought in by the detectives, where fined by Magistrate Kochendorfer. The police say that they propose to keep up the crusade until all the stores Are closed because they find the sentiment in the district to be against Sunday opening. PETTY CRIME IN PLENTY.

Humphrey in the Queens Court yesterday charged the December Grand Jury, George E. Payne, of Long Island City, was selected as foreman.

A number of such cases were in the hands of the District Attorney for presentation to the Grand Jury.
