The police meanwhile seeking the father and mother of the children. de youngsters are the children of William and Mary Melville, who until yesterday afternoon lived with them at 197 Norman avenue.

When the family was evicted all their belongings were dumped into the street. The parents took some of the things away and left the children, William 13, Frank 10 Robert, 8, James, 5, and Mamie, 4, to guard the rest. In the necessity of looking after their own children, few of the neighbors noticed what had become of any members of the dispossessed family. They did not know until this morning. Then they investigated the source of the crying they had heard during the night.

Huddled together for the sake of warmth the children were alone in the stripped rooms! Patrolmen Murray and Flood of the Greenpoint station were called by the neighbors. They took the youngsters to the station house. There, Murray and Flood and Lieutenant Anthony dug into their pockets and in a little while the tots had forgotten that it was ever possible for anybody to be hungry.

MISSOURI CARRIED BY ROOSEVELT MEN Two Taft Delegates Resign When Convention. Votes Instructions for Colonel. SAY AGREEMENT WAS BROKEN After Convention Taft Men Meet and Name Four Delegatesat-Large. St. Louls, April 26-Governor Herbert S.

Hadley and his friends early today swung the Missouri State Republican convention for Colonel Roosevelt, after a (twenty-four hours deadlock in which the Taft leaders finally were driven to surrender. Eight delegates-at-large to the National Republican convention, all Roosevelt men all instructed for him, were elected after two Taft leaders had been elected and then had resigned their places on the Missouri delegation when the convention voted instructions for Roosevelt. convention will go down in the annals of Missouri politics as one of the most stubborn and dramatic fights in the history of the State Republican organization. Mayor Frederick H. Kreismann of St.

Louis, and Charles D. Morris of St. seph, the latter chairman of the State committee, were the Taft leaders were elected and who resigned as gates-at-large when the State tion voted to instruct the delegation for Roosevelt. In making their resignations they charged violation of a "gentlemen's agreement," by which they declared the Roosevelt managers had assured them that the delegates-at-large would be uninstructed. Governor Hadley replied to the declarations of Mayor Kreismann an.1 Chairman Morris in this connection by asserting that he had not been a party to any so-called "gentleman's agreement." The Governor asserted that throughout the bitter fight which preceded the formal opening of the convention he had refused to attempt to deliver the votes of Roosevelt delegates on any proposition.

eight delegates-at-large, each with a one-half vote, follow: Governor Herbert S. Hadley, Jesse Tolerton of Bronson, Walter S. Dickey of Kansas City, Fred Essen of Clayton, John D. McNeeley of St. Joseph, Hugh McIndoe of Joplin, John W.

Tippin of Springfeld, and Alfred H. Spear of Chamois. As national committeeman from Missouri to succeed Charles Nagel, Secretary of Commerce and Labor, the vention elected Thomas K. Niedringhaus of St. Louis.

The Roosevelt forces only achieved final sweeping success after four distinct fights with the Taft leaders, who resisted each step stubbornly. The first fight came on the question of seating contested delegations from Kansas City, St. Joseph and other important points. This fight occupied all Wednesday night, and late Thursday resulted in the seating of nearly all the Roosevelt delegates. The second contested point was that regarding chairman of the convention.

Governor Hadley was placed in that position after his followers had demonstrated that they held balance of votes on the convention floor. The third struggle came in the resolutions committee, where re Taft men refused to indorse Roosevelt. After the committee had submitted one report to the convention, it was withdrawn and an amplified report containing a straight indorsement of Colonel Roosevelt was presented and adopted by acclamation. A minority report was as promptly voted down on a roll call. The final battle, after daylight had flooded the big armory and the delegates were almost worn out by their all-day and all-night struggle, was on the question of instructing the eight delegates at large to the national convention.

The Taft forces, led by members of the St. Louis. delegation, made a last rally in efforts to prevent flat instructions for Roosevelt. But they were swept away by the now dominant Roosevelt tide, and by a vote of more than 2 to 1 the Roosevelt forces carried their point, which resulted in the withdrawal of Mayor Kreismann and Chairman Morris as delegates to the Chicago convention and the election of Roosevelt men in their places. OLD SPANISH MISSIONS.

They Were Charmingly Described in Lecture at the Academy. Herbert W. Gleason, M.A., of Boston, in his Brooklyn Institute lecture last evene ing at the Academy of Music, told of "An Automobile Tour Among the Old Spanish Missions." Showing the ruing of the room where Father Junipero Sarra died at San Carlos Carmelo Mission, and "Pigs in the Parda's Room," in the ruins of La Soledad Mission, Mr. Gleason expressed the wish that the Roman Catholics of America, when raising the money with which to erect their magnificent churches, would give thought and money to che preservation of several such places, where dwelt men who, in early days, gave their lives to the advancement of civilization, religion and the Roman Catholic form of faith. Many fine memorials were pictured, but it was urged that places made sacred by the fact that in them was passed the daily life of such noble men should bear expression of appreciation of the fact.

The name "California," the lecturer said, often thought to be in some way derived from flowers, means "heat of a furnace," and was first applied to Lower California, or that portion above San Diego. Many old prints were put upon the screen to show how some of the older nissions had appeared. At Santa Clara; the cross set up still remains, but it is inclosed in a cross of later construction, in order to preserve it. Still another of Father Serra's crosses is preserved at a more southern mission, San Antonio de Padua. CAPTURE OF NEW ORLEANS.

The Fiftieth Anniversary of Event to Be Celebrated at Old Astor House. April 24, 1862, Admiral Farragut with his fleet passed the forts on the lower Mississippi and captured New Orleans, on April 25. To celebrate that great historical event of the Civil War, the Naval Veterans of New York and Brooklyn will have a dinner at the old Astor House, Broadway and Vesey street, Manhattan, on Saturday evening, at 7 p.m. The fact that the dinner is to be held at the old Astor House should interest every veteran.

Paris, April 26-Although It is realized that the Titanic disaster which is still fresh in the public mind of America may affect the receptions for the French del- egation arriving New York today, the greatest interest in the visit is exhibited here. The Figaro today publishes a leading article written by Gabriel Hanotaux before the departure of the mission, and which voices the warmth of the admiration and friendship of France for the United States and expresses the hope that the visit will result in bringing the two republics even closer together.

The French historian thinks that the United States in its dominating position between two oceans will fill more and more the role of world arbitrater, as it did in the Russo-Japanese War. Issued hours ending at 10 MARRIAGE, LICENSES A.M. today. William M. Wepter, 35, of 331 Clinton Barbette W.

Seventy Out of Eighty-nine Appointees for Bureau of Fire Prevention Enrolled Democrats. A letter calling attention to the alleged partisan in which the temporary appointments manner, the new Bureau of Fire Prevention were made has been sent to Mayor Gaynor by the Civil Reform Association and was made public today. The letter was signed by Samuel H.

Ordway, president, and Elliot H. Goodwin, secretary of the organization, It recited that a definite rumor had reached the association I to the effect that Fire Commissioner Johnson, before making the temporary appointment, had gone to Tammany leader Charles Murphy and suggested that each of his district leaders nominate men for the positions thus offered. The results of a canvass of the names of the appointees, the letter states, showed that of the eighty-nine persons appointed to the temporary positions seventy were filled by enrolled Democrats, four by Republicans, one by an Independence Leaguer. The other fourteen, the letter said, could not be found in the enrollment books. The letter adds: "The seventy enrolled Democrats were found to be distributed among the fiftyfour Assembly districts of Brooklyn, Queens was given no shared in this patManhattan.

In speaking of the Brooklyn appointments the letter says that five of the appointees are members of the party executive committees and continues by referring to the appointment of William J. McKeob, chief examiner at a salary of $2.500 a year. He, it says, was discharged from the Bureau of Buildings for dismissing a violation against a frame structure, the erection of which was prohibited by the building code.

Significantly it closes, "Fire Commissioner Johnson had been informed of that fact." The single Brooklyn Republican appointed is Frank Tonjes, of the Sixth Assembly District, who got a job as inspector, at 1,200. The six Brooklynites who could not be found on the enrollment books are: Laura G. Grant, Ralph H. Roberts, T. J.

SAYS DAPPER YOUTH ENTICED HER AWAY Margaret Sofield Found in Pennsylvania After Two Weeks Absence. FATHER IN TEARS IN COURT. Young Men of Prominent Bedford Section Families Involved in Story of Girl's Disgrace.

Back of the arraignment of a dapper youth in the Gates avenue court today is a story not unlike those in which the Bedford gang figured a few years ago. The prisoner said he was Walter Jones, 21 years old, of 1121 Bedford avenue. was arrested about 2 o'clock this morning by Detective Frederick Lynch as he was about to enter the Bedford branch Y. M.

She was located yesterday in Hartwood, where she says she was told to go by Jones. The story she told indicated to some persons that the police might well pay attention to a private house on Gates avenue, not far distant from Bedford, and to certain hotels on upper Broadway. The house is said to be frequented by young women and youths of well to do families. The hotels in question apparently are not particular about the ages of persons who visit them. According to Margaret she was invited to the private house in question and there met.

Jones. She names a 17-year-old girl living on Franklin avenue as the person who had invited her to the house. A telephone message was sent from the house, according to the girl, and Jones appeared. She also names a high school boy, a member of a well known family living on Monroe street, as having been at the house at the time. In her complaint Margaret charges that Jones took her to a hotel on upper Broadway.

Then she went away. The police were asked to look for her, but could get no trace of the missing girl in this city. She was finaly traced by a letter sent here from the Pennsylvania town. She is a pretty girl, wears short skirts and has her brown hair plaited. Her father, who acompanied her, was In tears during the time he was in court.

Jones is a very neat chap. He has light hair and wore a well tailored blue suit. Asked what he had to say to the charge he made the short reply: "I would like to waive examination."

Must Face Accusation Made by 14- Year-Old Girl. Samuel Lippman, 18 years old, and Samuel Abrahamson, 20 years old, were arraigned in the New Jersey avenue court today on charges preferred by Edith Wax, 14 years old, who has been missing from her home at 102 Thirteenth avenue, Newark, N.

for several months. The girl was found last night by detectives of the Brownsville police station at the home of Mrs. Finkel, at 2050 Bergen street. where she had been taken by the boys, who told Mrs. Finkel that they had found her wandering in the streets.

In court today she blamed the boys for keeping her away from home, charging them with abduction, but later said that she had left home after a quarrel with her parents. Lippman gave his address as 145 Sackman street and Abrahamson said that he lived at 49 Liberty avenue. Both were held in $3,000 by Magistrate Harris.
