Doellinger was found by trailing his young son from New York to this city. YOUTH IS DISCHARGED Flanagan Did Assault Father, but "There's a Reason." Young Corona Man Convinced Court the Attack Was Warranted, and Judge Set Him Free, When Bernard Flanagan, 20 years old, of 145 Home street, Corona, was arraigned before Magistrate Fitch in the Flushing police court yesterday on a charge of having assaulted his father. Malachi Flanagan, on the night of March 26 last at their home in Corona, Judge Fitch realized that a great injustice had been done in arresting the young man and honorably discharged him.

It seems, by the evidence. that Malachi Flanagan is the father of thirteen children, but the burden of supporting the family has for some time rested on young Bernard, who has done so on a salary of $13.50 per week. The young man proved to the satisfaction of the court that it was while he was protecting the members of his family from his father's cruelties that the father suffered injuries which consisted of a broken rib and bruises about the head and body. youth says that he intends to tinue to support his mother. brothers and sisters.

BLOCK PAVING FREE IF BOROUGH ACCEPTS But President Steers May Be Unable to Take $12,000 Gift. ANOTHER CONTRACT GIVEN OUT Curious Situation Arises Out of Proposed Repaving of Prospect Park West. Borough President Steers is now occupied in trying to run cown the proper solution of one of the most unique problems ever presented to a public official in this city, the problem of how to accept, on behalf of the borough, the tendered gift of three of a mile of expensive street paving.

The borough president has been making a study of various paving materials since office, but the problem of the satisfactory hen took, pavement isn't a circumstance to the problem of how to accept a present. William H. Childs, president of the United States Wood Preserving Company, wood block paving concern, and his neighbors, want wood block paving on their street. The street is Prospect Park West, and Mr. Childs has a handsome residence at No.

53. The present paving is asphalt, and is in such a condition as to need complete replacement. According to the residents, many of whom have sent complaints to the Borough President regarding the condition of the pavement. the climax of the disreputable condition of the old pavement was reached recently when the telephone company laid a conduit, and failed to repave the strip that was torn up. Mr.

Childs Makes an Offer to the Borough President. A few days ago Mr. Childs called upon Borough President Steers and said that if the borough would lay wood block pavement in Prospect Park West, the material would be supplied at the cost of repaving with asphalt. Mr. Steers understood that Mr.

Childs was willing to pay the difference himself, but pears to be some question regarding this. The matter is important, because the cost would be somewhere between $12,000 and $24,000. The dimculty so far as the acceptance of the gift is concerned is that a contract was recently awarded for repaving Prospect Pork West, from the Plaza to Ninth street, with asphalt. The Cranford company has the contract, which has been certified, and ready to be carried out. Mr.

Childs was informed of this situation and he had his wood block company at once undertake negotiations with the Cranford company, with a view to making a private agreement that might be presented to the city for approval. C. A. Angell, vice president of the Cranford company, said to-day that he was called up on the 'phone this noon by Alexander Rood, who is a salesman of the Childs concern, the United States Wood Preserving Company, and asked if he would "talk business." Mr. Angell said he was willing to talk business.

but could make no promises. As a matter of fact, the Cranford company is very jealous of its contract, as Mr. An- gell indicated. Cranford Company May Be Unwilling to Give Up Their Contract. He said that Prospect Park West was one of the best streets in the city upon which to demonstrate any kind of paving material.

The traffic is not heavy. and street is a broad one. which comes under much observation. He ventured to state that the Cranford company would not be willing to give up the asphalt contract without some lasting return, much less give up a pavement the concern had been laying for thirty years in favor of an opposition pavement. Mr.

Angell said that work had started on the contract, and that. the curbs were now being delivered along the street. The Cranford contract price is $165 a square yard, including removal of the old pavement, and the laying of the concrete foundation. The job. it is stated, calls for 12,000 yards of pavement.

The price of wood block pavement varies from $2.85 a square yard to $4, and is usually placed, off at $3.50 a yard. If the wood block that is proposed for Prospect Park West were to cost $3.65 a yard, the difference between its price and that of asphalt for the 12.000 yards would be 000. This figure was pronounced excessive to-day by A. B. Clements, vice president of the Childs company.

"I shouldn't think the difference would be more than $1 a yard, and if there are 12,000 yards, that would make an extra expense $12.000. Yes. I have heard of the proposal to lay wood block in place of the asphalt, but I do not understand that Mr. Childs himself agrees to pay the entire difference. Mr.

Childs and His Neighbors Want a Noiseless Pavement, "My understanding is that some of his neighbors. knowing that he was in this business, and believing that he could get the wood block paving under the usual price. came to him and offered to contribute to the extra expense. "The purpose is not at all to make a demonstration of the wood block pavement. I understand that Mr.

Childs' neighbors living in the street want the noiseless pavement for their own personal satisfaction." Just how many of the Prospect Park residents are willing to make up several thousand dollars in order to get the SOcalled noiseless pavement could not be ascertained to-day. Mr. Childs made it clear to Borough President Steers when he called that he did not propose to pay for the new pavement outright, but would guarantee the payment of the difference in cost between the asphalt and the wood block. Mr. Steers Thinks Well of Wood Block Pavement.

Borough President Steers has given wood block paving considerable consideration and is convinced 'hat it is far superior to asphalt. "I suppose," he said to-day, "that I am in favor of any particular kind say 01 pavement, people will at once ask why interested in it. The fact is have I am the pavement here and abroad, and seen have been impressed particularly with the extent to which it is used with satisfactory results in Paris and other European cities. It is expensive, and that is the drawback. If I should recommend it.

should limit the use of it to a few important thoroughfares, where its advanwould be most needed." tages The Borough President took a trip the other day to the Bronx and was very favorably impressed with a "bituminous" road pavement on the Bronx and Pelham parkway, which he believes would be an excellent substitute for dusty macadam. There is little difference in the price, and if anything, the bituminous roadway, says the Borough President, is cheaper than the macadam, AT EAGLE PARIS BUREAU. Eagle Bureau, 53 Rue Cambon.

For Several Weeks, They Say, Meat Consumption Has Fallen Off Enormously. Brooklyn butchers who are suffering heavy losses in their business as a result of the high prices on meats, have called a mass meeting for Monday evening.

to discuss the situation. Many of them feel that the tariff on live cattle, sheep and hogs and on meat products is largely responsible for gixing the trust an opportunity to raise prices far beyond their natural level. At the mass meeting, to be held at Dodworth Hall, 1089 Broadway, the retail butchers will be addressed by Congressman Otto G. Foeiker, who has introduced a bill into Congress calling for the abolition of the tariff on live stock. The discussion of this measure will stir up the general question of the present high prices on meats and other food products and the high cost of living as the retailer sees it and feels it in contact with his customers, will be illuminated.

For several weeks past meat consumption in Brooklyn has fallen off enormously. One retail butcher remarked the other day that the meat strike on the part of the people of Brooklyn is more effective to-day than ever in the past. He said that many people were buying no meat at all, and that others have reduced their meat consumption by half. MARTIN OFFENDED WOMEN Teachers to Ask Him to Make an Explanation. If He Refuses to Do So, They Will Carry Case to Mayor--Their Banquet Discussed.

The Interborough Teachers Association, at its meeting held yesterday afternoon at Wanamaker's paid their respects to John Martin of the Board of Education, for the way he treated the older teachers in an address delivered by him at the special meeting of the board held March 16, held to pass on the women teachers demand for equal pay. A spirited discussion led up to the passage of a resolution requesting Mr. Martin to explain, and in the case of his failure so to do to carry his case before the mayor. The matter of the dinner to be given on April 16 came up for protracted consideration. The spread, which will be held in the Wanamaker store, is designed to give delight to sixteen hundred guests, but so far but one thousand have taken tickets, and that number, with the two hundred invited guests added, still falls four hundred short of the desired number.

The time for sending in applications has been extended to next Saturday, and those who apply after that date will not get their names on the printed card. and will have to take the poorest seats in the great dining hall. An effort will be made to create greater enthusiasm by persoral solicitation, and an appeal to the Interborough spirit. and it is expected that every seat will be occupied as in previous years. The matter of the women wearing hats during the dinner seemed to worry some members of the committee.

and various schemes were considered to keep the "merry widows" and other expansive headgear in the dressing rooms. "Why is it not feasible to have the reception committee request the women to leave their hats in the reception rooms?" inquired one of the committee. "That is not a bad suggestion to take care of the matter." replied Miss Strachan, "if the request may be anticipated by the women, many of will reply to it that really they cannot, as they must wear their hats to keep up their hair." Some were impressed with dismay at the very thought that they were not to have the supreme joy of displaying their new spring creations at this the most important function of all the year. but it was decided to let it be known as widely as might be that to remove hats, just as the men are supposed to do, would be expected of the women. Miss Strachan had a few words to say about the proposed salary provisions of the new charter now before the legislators at Albany.

want to stay any fear that you may have of its provisions being hurtful 10 your interests." she said. "The committee as a whole is in favor of making the pay, regardless of sex, equal for equal work. It is divided on the matter of making the rate mandatory. But that is to be left to the men to contend forthe men of the Police and Fire departments. as well as the men teachers of the schools.

for all departments are to be treated alike in this matter. In case it passes with the mandatory minimum rate we shall not suffer, for the Board of Estimate and the Board of Aldermen would not dare after these four years of agitation to place our salaries lower than they are now Let the men do the worrying."

FATHER WAS SEEKING WORK When the Men, Armed With Legal Authority, Visited Their Home. After being literally thrown out of their home into the yard while their father was looking for work and their mother lying sick in the house, three children were yesterday morning taken to the Children's Court by an agent of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.

Stanley Tucker, two years old, and the youngest in the family, has infantile paralysis and is unable to move about, and the two older children-William, five, and Kate, seven-were standing watch over him Friday afternoon when Warren Mason, the S. P. C. C. agent, arrived at 107 McKibbin street, where the family of five had occupied two rooms on the left side of the top floor of a two-story frame building in the rear.

All the furniture of the family, a bedstead, a table, a chiffonier, and a few chairs were scattered about the yard, as were the spare clothing of the family. Everything had been pitched right out into the some of it through the window. according to the father of the children, who had gone to East New York looking tor a job. He says a deputy sheriff and one assistant had watched him leave the house and then they had started to throw things out the strength of a dispossess notice. The only thing they left was a couch 011 which Mrs.

Tucker lay sick. She said the men had started to take her out, too, but she had screamed, and when they found out she was in a delicate condition, left her alone. She is now in the Eastern District Hospital, in a serious condition. She was operated on for appendicitis at the St. Catherine's Hospital about a year ago, but similar symptoms have again appeared, in addition to her previous condition.

She has been sick in bed for about a month. Don't Know Who the Landlord Is, Say Dispossessed Family. The family had lived at the above address for two months, paying five dollars a month in rent. Who the landlord is Mr. Tucker does not know; his wife had engaged the two rooms and paid the first month's rent at a candy store on Montrose avenue, near Graham, but when she came to pay the second month's rent, her husband says she was told she was not the same person who engaged the rooms, and was told to move out.

Later a dispossess notice was served on the family, but the father got a two days stay from the magistrate's court, he says SO that he could look for another place. In the meantime, the oldest child was taken sick with the measles, and the worry and exertion of nursing her broke down the mother. Mr. Tucker is still a young man; he is in good health, but fagged out with worry and mortification. He does not drink, and the neighbors give the family the best of recommendations.

It is sickness and unfavorable labor conditions that have brought about the downfall of the family. Tucker is a tanner by trade, and when he was married, he had an earning capacity of from $25 to $30 a week on piece work at a tannery at Woodside. A reorganization of the tannery put him back on a weekly salary of only $10 a week, he says, and in disgust he left. Since then he has been doing odd jobs, working on a moving van, shoveling snow, etc. Now he is out of work and would be glad to get any kind of a job.

The sickness of his wife drained the family resources and now the only resort is public charity. When Tucker came home and found his home wrecked, the children out in the yard and his wife hysterical with fear and excitement, he complained to a patrolman about the treatment afforded him by the owner of the house and the deputy sheriff, and the policeman summoned both the hospital ambulance and the P. C. C. agent.

The three children were remanded to the care of the society until either the family is straightened out or a place has been found for them. NEW TROLLEY ROAD Extension Through Utica Avenue to Be Ready June 1. The Line Will Open Up a Big Territory of Borough With Short Cut to Bay. Announcement was made yesterday at the offices of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, that the new trolley line through Utica avenue, from Church avenue south to Avenue N. would be ready and open for business on June 1.

The local system has been much delayed in getting steel rails for the extensions, the poles and overhead trolley wires having gone in last fall.
