Controller May Have 000 to Spend. (Special to The Eagle.) Albany, May 19-Job-hungry politicians- -both Democrats and Republicans-are bombarding State Controller Eugene M.

Travis for shares of the $300,000 given him by the State Legislature the administration of the new State Income Tax Law. Although the which levies a tax graduated to 3 per cent. on the incomes of all single persons in excess of $1,000 and all married persons in excess of $2,000. was signed by Governor Smith only last Thursday, announcement was made here today that no less than 873 applications for jobs in the new buand collect the tax, created. already reau, which will be to assess been received.

The applications give as qualifications everything conceivable from a heroic record in the World War to and bookkeeping. Some of the applications, it was stated, come from lawyers who charge service fees ranging upward of $5,000 and $10,000 and set forth their abilities to "explain the law in terms simple enough for the most ignorant to understand." As yet no jobs have been passed out, and when they do, the Controller says. they will be "few and far Just at present there is considerable speculation as to just who will have the dispensing of the patronage, anyUnder the original bill the State way. Controller was given power to create all jobs and fix all salaries and make all appointments. Hurriedly at the last minute an amendment was slipped in with the intention of clipping his wings in this respect, by providing that Governor Smith, Democrat, and Assemblyman H.

E. Machold and Senator Henry M. Sage, Republicans, should share in the work. But analysis of the wording of the amendment shows the clipping to have been faulty, and it process may develop yet that the Controller will be the real dispenser of the patronage. The law.

says: "No new position shall established or salary fixed except on the unanimous. approval of the Governor, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee and the chairman of the Assembly Ways and Means Committee." Many are translating this to mean that the Controller merely has to get the approval of these men to a list of jobs and attached salaries and may then go out and hand the places to whomever he desires. Politicians say that this "looks all right and is all right technically," but that when the Controller presents his lists he will find it necessary to produce the names he of prospective appointees before gets "unanimous approval." If this is so some of the Democrats who have applied to Mr. Travis may, through the good offices of Governor Smith, be remembered. The Controller stated that plans for the administration of the law had not been matured.

It is tentatively determined to erect an Income Tax Bureau in his office to handle the business. Under this branch offices will be established, probably one in New York City, another in Buffalo and two in the center of the State. New York City, including the five boroughs, will probably be a separate tax district by itself. The plans for the collection of the tax and filling out the returns is unsettled. John H.

(Special Cable to The Eagle.) Paris, May 19-The Bureau has heard from the following: First Lt. Harold Igo, 358 W. 46th is leaving for London on a 14-day furlough. Sgt. Edward Wade of Bensonhurst, Frank Sheridan, 1085 Pacific and Edward Byrnes, 58 Madison st.

The latter is awaiting orders to return at Chalons sur Marne. Corp. Patrick Dolan, formerly of the 445th with detached service; George White, with 33d Service at Lemans Red Brough, sailed for America on April 16. Corp. Harry Osborn, 459 63d ave.

Arnold Schmidt, 556 McDonough st. Albert Keegan of Eighth ave. expects to visit Paris. Federal Government. Members of the staff are to be sent soon to Massachusetts to study the administration of that State's income me tax, and the Controller himself plans to go to Washington on the same errand.

"There 1s, one thing certain," declared the Controller. "We will endeavor to make the returns as simple as possible, and by so doing make the collection of the tax less a burden than the Federal levy." To this end a primer, is being prepared for general distribution throughout the State. This will be ready for publication between June 1 and 10, and since the tax returns, together with the tax, need not be sent to the Controller until March 15 of next year, it is believed that the intervening nine months will give plenty of time for residents of the State to become familiar with the tax law. LINCOLN CLUB ELECTS The board of trustees of the Lincoln Club has elected the following officers: President, Col. Charles H.

ARMENIA, TORPEDOED TWICE, BACK IN PORT Former German Vessel Completes Voyage Begun Here in December 1917. Completing a voyage begun here in December, 1917, the routine of which interrupted by two semi-successful torpedo attacks, the steamship Armenia, formerly a German vessel of the same name, docked in New York today.

On a voyage to France with a cargo of flour she was attacked while off Star Point in the English Channel and a torpedo tore a large hole in her hull. Her injuries were such that she could not reach a port so Capt. John Anderson turned her into the beach, which she succeeded in reaching before the water in her hold gained to such an extent that she could not be navigated. Part of her cargo was removed, the hole in her hull patched by divers, and two months later she was put off and headed for a drydock. She had just got under way, however, when again she was attacked by a submarine apparently lying in wait for her, and another torpedo was sent crashing into her, this time on the opposite side to where the first one had struck.

Capt. Anderson once more put her about and managed again to make the beach. Repairs were again started but before they had reached the point where a venture to sea was safe, the armistice was signed and under peaceful conditions they were completed so that the ship could at last be taken to drydock. The torpedo attacks on the Armenia made three contests with Germany's destructive forces. The first took place during a previous voyage in June, 1017, when she was subjected to a bombardment from a submarine which virtually stripped her of all deck structures, but none of the enemy shells struck a vital portion of the ship.

The vessel, of 5,464 stons register, was seized in New York when the United States entered the war. It then cost the United States Shipping Board approximately $66,000 to repair the wilful damage her engines done by her former German crew. FOR NEW SYNAGOGUE.

Thirteen other young men were served with sum monses for violating park ordinances. They will be arraigned tomorrow morning in the Second District Court.

"I am determined to stop the wilful destruction of park property," said Park Commissioner Harman in the Flatbush court today, "The majority of the people who come to Prospect Park on Sundays and other days have some respect for the rights of others, but there are a few who mistake liberty for license, and as a result feel that they have the privilege to do as they like. These young men and boys climb the trees, pick the flowers, tear up the grass, ride bicycles on the lawns, disregard the 'keep off' signs, walk over the shrubs and in other ways destroy property which cannot be replaced. I have taken the matter up with Police Commissioner Enright and he is actively co-operating with me. From now on we will have a number of plain clothes men in the park, and whenever park ordinances are violated summonses will be served and those arrested will be vigorously prosecuted."

The' son to whom Lullman alluded in his note lives in Union Course, Queens.

Lullman WON to have been arraigned in court tomorrow on a charge made by mother in behalf of her 14-year-old daughter. He WILS a native of Germany and on margin of a clipping containing the peace terms the words "too severe" were written, Off They Go in Great Big Batches; Cover Street With Fiery Patches. Twenty millions of "Night anywhere, no afterglow" matches narrowly escaped obliteration under the bridge approach at the corner of Nassau and Washington at 9:30 o'clock this morning, when a few of them were accidentally scratched against the structure. They were loaded on a huge motor truck, in 200 wooden each containg 100 boxes of matches, and they towered high over the truck. The driver, passing across Washington street, on Nassau, did not notice the warning overhead on the bridge structure, which read "Drivers take notice--head room 101 feet." He was going at a lively clip when the top row of boxes scraped against the iron beams of the superstructure.

Immediately smoke broke from the top row of cases, many of which tumbled to the street. Attraced by the crash of the impace and the sizzling of the ignited cargo, a policeman of the Adams st. station saw that a lively fire was imminent and sent in a hurried alarm for the engines. Then the flaming boxes were town from the under part of the load and dumped, blazing, on the street. There were firemen and engines and hook and ladder trucks and the salvage corps men on hand in a jiffy and the burning matches were deluged with water.

About half of the 010 load made salvage was by some the saved driver and individual a of vain the boxes effort truck from was to the cases, but there was little that had been dragged to the street that was left to save. The omnipresent boys gathered up many boxes and made off with them. After the fire was out the street cleaning men made a bonfire of the remnants and the truck was driven off with what was left of the load.
