a a a THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, MAY 20, 1915. QUEENS BOROUGH AND LONG ISLAND FAULTY SCHOOL TO GET MAINTENANCE ITEM Institution's Managers Must Show Governor How Each Part Will Be Used. PREPARE ITEMIZED STATEMENT. J.

T. Hoile and Senator Thompson Persuade Governor to Change His Mind About Veto. (Special to The Eagle.) Albany, May 20-The Long Island Agricultural School at Farmingdale will not lose its $69,000 appropriation for maintenance, if the managers of the school succeed in showing GovWhitman the necessity for the ernor, and just what it is to be used for in detail. The Governor will demand that every dollar of it be accounted for, however, and that the managers of the institution commit themselves definitely. upon how it is to be expended before he permits it to remain in the general appropriation bill from which he struck it out temporarily last week upon discovering that it had been appropriated in bulk without any detailed restrictions as to the manner in poses it was be which to be or the purThis is the ultimatum that he depused livered to Senator George L.

Thompson of Kings Park, James T. Hoile of the school's board of managers and A. Johnson, the director, the men who during the last three days have been during the Governor daily to recede from his first tentative decision to strike the item out completely. Mr. Holle is reported to have been very in heated in his or argument with the Governor over the appropriation.

Senator Thompson pleaded more moderately and succeeded in receiving the encouraging concession that if the school's managers could show the absolute necessity for the money and just how it was to be used the Governor would allow it to stand. In conformity with this, those interested in the matter consulted Commissioner Wilson of the Department of Agriculture yesterday prepared to submit a minutely detailed statement. It is also understood that the managers have to promise not to use all the $69,000. At least $9,000 of it is to be left untouched, it was declared yesterday. COURT FIGHT FOR SQUAW PIT PURCHASE Justice Jaycox Reserves Decision on Suit Over Babylon Land.

A (Special to The Eagle.) Riverhead, L. May 20-Lawyer Raymond C. Haff made quite a strenuous. effort in the Supreme Court yesterday to have Justice Jaycox decide that about eighty-four acres of land in what is known as the Squaw Pit Purchase belongs absolutely to the Town of Babylon, which he represented, but Justice Jaycox reserved decision. The action was that of Anna F.

Sanford against Charlotte LeRoy Lindley and others. It was in the nature of a partition suit, but Babylon stepped in and claimed to own all of the land in Documentary evidence in the case dated back to the reign of King Charles II. This was in the form of the Nicoll Patent to Huntington town, this patent and other ancient history dated in 1666. Mr. Haff introduced to prove that Huntington once had absolute possession and what Huntington owned went to Babylon when a part of Huntington was made into the Town of Babylon.

Mr. Haff contended that the land had always been in the undisputed possession of the Towns of Huntington and Babylon. One witness testifled that he had been acquainted with the land for many years, that no taxes had ever been paid on it, that it had always apparently been free land because anyone who wanted wood from it went there and carted it away. Testimony was introduced to prove that the land was worth at least $100 an acre based upon the present condition of the realty market. TO WED IN MASSACHUSETTS.

COLORING MATTER IS BLAMED.

No Friction With School Authorities Over Matter, Contractor Declares. (Special to The Eagle.) Port Jefferson, L. May 20-Some of the mortar used in laying the surface or outer course of bricks in the $75,000 public school house opened here six months ago, is so faulty, it became known today that part of the work will have to be done again by the contractor. The trouble is due, it is asserted, to the fact that the coloring matter used in the mortar was mixed in the wrong proportion. Tooker Marsh, the architects, said that the specifications were properly drawn and that Charles V.

Platt, the contractor, has agreed to make the work right. This will cost him about $1,000. The mortar is so soft that in some places it can be scraped away with the anger the members of the Board of Education would be quoted on the matter, but one member said that the contractor and the would scrape out the defective mortar and point the work up again. The architects, Tooker Marsh, declare that the specifications of the mortar were correct and that the trouble is due only to the use of an improper proportion of the coloring material. "The mortar in the outer wall is sound with the exception of about half an inch from the outside.

In that portion the contractor has used too much coloring matter and that destroyed the cohesive power of the lime. The contractor has agreed to make good all defects and will go to work immediately to do all the necessary repairing thoroughly." Mr. Platt, the contractor, says that the surface brick course was in bad condition and that leaks in the school rooms were caused by this. He stated that there has never been any difference between the School Board, himself and Campbell Dempsey, the sub-contractors, regarding making right anything that was not entirely up to specifications. He said that as soon as the matter was drawn to his attention he agreed to have the work done in proper shape, and after a conference with the sub-contractors they agreed to do the work over.

While Mr. Platt thinks there is a possibility of the coloring matter used in the cement in the outer course having killed the strength of the material, he says that Campbell Dempare still of the impression that the bricks were laid up with mortar that was green; that moisture had been taken in and it was frozen.

HELPED HOSPITAL NEAR PARIS. Robert Breese of Southampton Also One of Party of Sixteen That Volunteered. (Special to The Eagle.) Patchogue, L. May 20-A large night heard Regis H. Post, former number of boys and young mien last Governor of Porto Rico, tell of his experiences as an ambulance driver in Paris.

The lecture was given in the parish house of St. Paul's Church. Mr. Post said he first became interested in the work when dining in the Harvard Club in New York one evening last November. He saw a placard posted there, calling for volunteers with cars for Red.

Cross ambulance work. He found a number already had volunteered, sixteen men in all, most of them Harvard graduates, and he joined the party. Among those who went to the war zone were Philip Carroll, Charles Levering, Richard Lawrence and Robert Breese, son of James Breese of Southampton. The hospital assigned for use was conducted entirely by Americans and was situated in Neuilly, a suburb of Paris. Formerly it was used 88 a high school.

In this building a large number of the French wounded were treated by some of the most prominent physicians of the United States. Mr. Post's duties were meeting the trains that brought the wounded directly the a men to the hospital. from the battlefeld and transporting The hospital has three operating rooms, equipped with every modern The institution has 500 beds, in wards, room and a bacteriological on laboratory. surgical appliance, Including an X-ray where only surgical cases are treated.

Mr. Post said the wounded men are of all nationalities, but by far the greater number are Frenchmen. He seemed confident of French success because of the dogged determination they are showing. It is doubtful, he thinks, whether an early termination of hostilities will take place because of the spirit prevailing throughout all France to "do or die." 18 GRADUATES IN BRENTWOOD St. Joseph's Academy Is Scene of Elaborate Commencement Exercises.

PAVING JOB STIRS FAR ROCKAWAY'S IRE Resurfacing of Central Avenue Called "Disgraceful Imitation" by "Alleged SAY LABORERS KILLED TIME.

One Side of Street Not Repaired. Residents Will Fight for Improvement. to The Eagle.) Far Rockaway, L. May 20- A Aroused at what they considered "disgraceful Job" of repaving on Central avenue, the residents of this community are prepared to carry on a still greater fight than any that has yet taken in an effort to get the City of place, York to give the Rockaways the improvements that they I need. The work in question, which was recently finished, was the resurfacing with brick pavement a section of Central avenue lying between Cornaga avenue, and finished, Mott the avenue.

residents Now claim that that the street is in little better condition than it was before. It is claimed that the pavement is rough, that water stands in sections of it during wet weather, and that within a short period, with traffic over it, the street will be as bad as it was before. Only one side of the street was repaired, nothing was touched on the side of the trolley tracks, and that side of the street is in as bad a condition as was the opposite side which has been repaired. Referring to this, Samuel Levy, a well-known business man on that side of the street said to an Eagle reporter: "I don't see why they did one side and not the other unless they had either religious or political reasons. They may have thought that there were Catholics on one side of the street and Jews on the other, otherwise, Democrats on one side and Republicans on the other." T.

C. Webster, another business man on the street, stated that the grading was 90 faulty that water stands in front of his store now the same as before "They the -had street as was high repairedighteen men, and three or four foremen on that job," said Mr. Webster, and it was both amusing and sad to see them kill time in trying to keep out of each other's way. At least two of the men were off all the time. Sometimes there were more away from work." A.

L. Nebenzahl, while expressing himself dissatisfied with the street said: "What is the use to complain? We have no one to complain to, no matter what our grievance. We might send a delegation to City write a letter of protest. In either case we would be told that the matter would receive attention, and that is all we would ever hear from it." RELIEF COMING IN GARBAGE SITUATION Connolly Promises Daily Collection in Rockaways During Summer. (Special to The Eagle.) Rockaway Beach, May 20-Residents of the Rockaways see relief coming in the garbage removal situation against which they have been complaining, as a result of the aid which Borough President Connolly has lent to their cause.

The Borough President has promised that commencing 1 the garbage will be collected every day in the Fifth Ward, instead of only three times a week, as has been the condition in the past. The daily collections will be continued until after the summer season is over. The people are joyful. A delegation of citizens, ing the Civic Federation of the Rockaways, the Rockaway Beach Board of Trade, the Business Men's Association, Seaside Taxpayers Association and the women of Arverne, called on Borough President Connolly on Tuesday to seek his aid in the garbage question and other matters relating to tho Rockaways. The delegation returned full of praises for the Borough President and the manner in which he treated them.

He listened for an hour and forty-five minutes to the arguments advanced by the spokesmen of the delegation, Andrew J. Kenny and Stanley C. Fowler. The matter of paving Rockaway Beach Boulevard was taken up. Mr.

Connolly promised the delegation that he would appear before the Board of Estimate tomorrow to ask for a large appropriation for Queens streets, and that he would apportion, it possible to do so, the $85,000 necessary for the boulevard pavement. In order not to have the work interfere with the summer season the delegation asked to have the work postponed until December. A good stone pavement will be used. If Borough President Connolly's support can do it, the boulevard will be sprinkled by the Ocean Electric Company. The franchise of this company requires it to sprinkle the boulevard.

The sprinkler has not been out this season and the people want the dust laid. ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCED. Far Rockaway, L. May 20-The engagement of Miss Florence Joseph of Hoboken, N. and Joseph Marcus of Oak street, Far Rockaway, has been announced.
