Only the best quality at popular prices. Dr. May, Before Long Island Physicians, Traces Mental Weaknesses as Cause.

DOCTORS AT BLUE POINT. Crime a Feature of Discussion Many Papers at Annual Convention. in (Special to The Eagle.) Blue Point, L. June 6 Dr. James May of Albany, secretary of the State Lunacy Commission, speaking on "The Physical Basis of Crime" before the Associated Physicians of Long Island at their forty-ninth regular meeting held here this afternoon and evening, traced a large percentage of crim inality directly to physical and mental weaknesses and hereditary defects.

The meeting was held at the Five- Mile-Look Hotel on the bay shore, at the foot of Blue Point avenue, and about 160 medical men from Brooklyn and all points on Long Island were present. Dr. J. P. Warbaase of 384 Washington avenue, Brooklyn, president of the Associated rhysiclans, presided.

Dr. May's speech and one delivered by Dr. A. J. Rosanoff of the Kings Park State Hospital on "The Social Possibilities of Mental Hygiene" were the principal addresses delivered, al though after a shore dinner, which was served at 6 o'clock, 10-minine talks were given by Dr.

William Browning of u4 Lefferts place, Brook lyn, on "Humanlcs," by Dr. Peter eoott of 1-0 New York avenue, Brooklyn, on "Hilarotherapy." and bv Dr. Henry U. Weber of 33 Washington avenue, Brooklyn, on "Homlletlcs." Dr. May's speech went deeply into tne suDjeci.

Says Defectives Should Be Under Medical Care. The principal point in his paper waf the relation of physical and mental weakness and heredity to crime and tne need ot taking the defective classes out of the care of prison authorities, ana putting them under medical super vision. various Investigations would go to snow, he said, that there is i very close relation between hereditv alcoholism, prostitution, mental defects and crime. It must be admitted that considerable percentage of criminal ity -at least should be attributed to defective mental development and that a revision of our present methods of dealing with criminals is clearly Indicated, he said. The defective classes have for centuries been held responsible for violations of the criminal mil.

and have been punished by imprison ment ior a mental endowment for which they are in no way responsible. The remedy for these conditions must be looaeu upon as beinir a merlienl ramer man a legal or a sociological roblem, he said, and this tvue of of fender can only be restored to his proper status by a method of care which will contemplate his mental restoration rather than a mere punishment for crime. Dr. May outlined the theories of Maudsley Pritlchnrd and others who claim moral Insanity to be the only basis of criminality; the doc trine of Lombroso, who attributes crime to reversion of man to the primitive types of his earlv Dredecesmirs and the claims of those who believe crime to be a natural product of the modern economic and social system. None of these theories, he said fur.

nishes an entirely adequate explanation of the tendency of an individual to commit offenses aarainst the law Crime must be attributed to a combina tion of factors. It is frequently based upon constitutional defects In the form or hereditary tendenc es or mental in fertorlty accompanied often by edu cational defects. In some cases it Is caused Dy pathological conditions resulting from epilepsy or Insanity. The Influence of environment shouid not be underestimated. The effect of frison surroundings on the normal in dividual should not be lost sieht of The criminal Is very generally deficient In education.

This Is due In manv instances to a lack of opportunity, but is frequently the result of a decided mental inferiority Some Brave Chilly Winda at Bathing- Beach, The afternoon session broke un ahout 4 o'clock, after which the doctors for got their professional cares and scattered through village to eniov their outing. Some braved the chilly salt waters of the Great South llav long enough to get a sample of tbe naming on tne Blue Point sands, and others went automobiling or sailing on the Bay. Tho doctors from Brooklyn and other points West returned to their homes last night by special train or auto mobile. Besides Dr. Warbasse, the president the other officers of the Association arc: Dr.

H. Turrell of Smith-town Branch, vice president; Dr. James Cole Hancock of 135 Cambridge place, Brooklyn, secretary, and Dr. S. Moore of Bay Shore, treasurer.

Dr. Walter Sherwood of 289 (iarfleld place Brooklyn, was chairman of the genera i arrangements committee for yesterday's meeting. Dr. Frank H. Overton of Patrhogue was chairman of the local committee, and his associates were Dr.

William B. Savage of East Islip and Dr. W. A. Hulse of Bay Shore.

JAMAICA REUNION 'Remember Inspiration, Aspira-tion and Perspiration," Says Dr. McLachlan. Jamaica, June -Between 201) and 100 members of the alumni association of the Jamaica Training School for Teachers attended the old home day reunion today. Graduates of the fine old school on the heights of Jamaica always look forward to these annual gatherings, where old acquaintances are renewed and greetings paid to the principal, Dr. A.

C. McUichlan. Those who attended the reunion to. day are now teaching throughout Greater New York, on Ixing Island and elsewhere. A brief business meeting was held In the auditorium.

In the course of which Dr. Georire was elected president the .1., eerve for the enriilng year. Miss Emma Miller was ele- tnil secretary1 and Miss Gnvln, treasurer.

Tho ni'hruii nt Resolute souared away at 4 snowing that Vanitie was leading by minutes and 1 second against ti min utes ana xi seconds at the weather mark. Resolute, therefore, had cut down Vanitie lead by 14 seconds. Both yachts broke out big ballooners they stood to the eastward with their booms eased off to port. Vaniliu had some trouble in breaking out her ballooner.

However, it was only for a few minutes and then the big sail tilled and drew splendidly. At that hour, the wind was still light and the regatta committee was hall a mind to stop the boats at the next mark. However, the craft were well within the time limit and as indications pointed to the breeze freshening, 'hair-man Boucher decided to wait until he saw the weather conditions at the leeward mark. All were interested to see what the boats would do with spinnackers. However, neither skipper broke out the "Snt ueln8 contented to carry 11 1B move was a good one.

Evidently Cap tain Aaams did not like the idea, for finally broke out his spinnackers to starboard at 5:09:30. Captain Dennis continued to tack down the wind and shortly after the spinnacker was set on Resolute, the boom on the Cochran craft was gybed from port to starboard. All this lost time for the Vanitie, and at the leeward mark, off Greenwich, Resolute had cut down Vanitie's lead of II minutes and 1 second to 4 minutes and 14 seconds. However, Vanitie had gained seconds on the full round to the Greenwich buoy. The times taken at the buoy were Vanitie, Resolute, 5: 32:31.

At that hour a smoky sou'wester was working up from Hempstead Harbor. promised plenty of wind as the sun sank in the west. Chairman Boucher, therefore, decided to let the craft continue the full course. The move, of course, favored Vanitie. She was the leading boat and would therefore be the first to catch a freshening breeze.

True to predictions. Vanitie was the more helped by the new breeze, and at the Oyster Bay mark the Cochran boat id Inc-eased her lead from four minutes and fourteen seconds to five minutes and eighteen seconds. She seemed to foot faster than the Resolute, although the latter kept picking op speed as the race drew toward the close. For the first time during the lay both boats were getting a bit of true racing breeze, and each began to f.ow a right good turn of speed. Once around the second mark, it was another reach on the port tack to the finish line.

Vanitie continued to increase her iead, and finally flasheo across the finish line five minutes and lifty-two seconds ahead of her white-SKier1 rival. On corrected time, Vanitie only won by two minutes and forty seconds. ROOSEVELT WOULD QUIT MOOSE TO LEAD G.O.P.

In Brooklyn Controller William A Prendergast, who supported Roosevelt In 1S02, and County Clerk Charles S. Devoy are classed as Roosevelt men at the present time. It Is also believed that Representative favors the Roosevelt Idea for 1316, although he has said nothing to indicate such a view. In Washington the opinion Is held that Senator Klihti Root may be found friendly to the Colonel as a Mlfl candidate, when the proper time comes. Of course, i.oosevelt will be bitterly fought within the Republican organization as well as supported.

tation of Portia's Role Bertram Folkart, Shylock. One of the most remarkable ama teur performances that has ever been given in Brooklyn took place at the New Montauk Theat. last evening, when "The Merchant of Venice" was put on the boards by a cast of talented children recruited from the ranks of the Junior Musical Art and Literary Society of Brooklyn. A twelve-year-old Shylock, a fifteen-year-old Portia, and a Prlnco of Arragon that minced about like a Dresden doll were some the features that made the audience blink with amazement. To begin with, the entire affair had air that smacked almost of the professional.

The Manual Training High School Orchestra, under the di-lection of Charles S. Yeruury, played between the acts; the scenery used was part of the Southern and Marlowe outfit; the costumes were elaborato to the last degree, the lighting effects well managed, and lastly, but 't important of all, the children had teen trained up to a remarkable sUndaid by Allen H. Hickerson, who, four months of rehearsals each, contrived to make seasoned actors out boys and girls whose ordinary Interest lies in baseball and dolls. In a performance that was at once spirited and dignified, and In which child acting of unusual excellence pre- vaiieu, it is aimcuit to single out Individuals for special praise and com mendation. Nevertheless, it is fair to state that Valerie Hickerson, daughter me uirecior, and a student at Erasmus Hall, is one of the most talented amateur actresses that Brooklyn has seen In many a day.

Her Portia was charming. It was almost impossible to believe that the stately creature of beaming happiness who superintended the choosing of the lucky casket by Hassan lo was a mere schoolgirl of 15 years. She conducted herself with perfect poise and seemed in absolute con trol of voice gesture. Rosaline Rlsch, as Nerlssa. was almost equally capable, and together they furnished some very entertaining moments.

ine Shylock of this olav was Ber tram Folkart. a lad of 12. who did his Dest to live up to the traditions of the role. Vivian Tickerson. another of Mr.

HickerBon's talented family, was the Prince of Arragon. Little Miss Vivian was a prince In miniature, about half the size of the Portia he, or rather she In this case, came to woo. In a costume of ermine and white satin, she tripped on. made her unlucky choice and departed, and when she had gone the audience burst Into prolonged ap plause. She was tiny and chic, and looked more like a statuette than a living child.

One of the very best bits of act? ing was done by Viola Raymond as Launcelot Uobbo. Little Miss Raymond seemed to have a natural abl-lty to get a comic line and situation across, and she made Launcelot go for al he was worth. Robert Panton made a delightful Duke of Venice, and Ralph Banker was a picturesque Prince of Morocco. As Antonio, Joseph Baretta was sufficiently lugubrious, and Edwin Fadiman was manly and convincing as Bassanlo. espe-claly In the casket scene.

Salanio, Salarlno, Oratiano and Salerlo were wel done by Vincent Banker, Elsie Hulst. Ruth Folkart and Edna Walton, respectively. Van Kensellaer Brok-hahne acted with precision as Lorenzo, and Ella Barker made a very delightful Jessica. So much for the main characters. The others, who had smaller parts and did them well were Robert Hugglns.

clerk of the court; Norman Mayer and Jules Tollner, court attendants; Violet Bart-lett, as Tubal; Allen Hickerson, as Old Uobbo; Lillian tiahagan, as Balthasar; Charles Bchrlefer, as a gondolier; Roy Peterson and Raymond Morse, pages to Portio; and Charlotte Crompton, Made line Crompton, Genevieve Wolfson, Gladys Milllken, Anna Dunn, Sylvia Leopold, Holly Vernes, Arllne Raymond, Hazel Holson, Lillian I-ewis. Marian Vogeley, Loretta Vogeley, Russell Brok- hahne, Sidney Woirson, Percy cunning hame and Alice Cunnlnghame, as rltl zens and masquers. Master George Kindred, a boy soprano, sang an exquisite little version of "Tell Me Where is Fancy Bred," In the casket scene, accompanied by the Cetta String Quartet. This production of the Junior Musi cat Art and Literary Society was very ambitious. Not only were the chil dren themselves very carefully trained so that there were no breaks or In terruptions, but the staging Itself was unusually well done for an amateur show.

Tbe scene on tbe Rlalto In the first act with a gondola and scores of gay masquer dancing shout and scattering flowers was very effective, snd the scenes In Portia's home at Belmont were brilliantly carried out In all the details. Not the least amusing part of the performance were the little attendants who were scattered about through the various scenes. Home of these seemed to be tots of very tender years Indeed, scarce old enough to toddle, but they comported themselves like veterans. The children were ent hualaatirally rer.elved hy a large audience of friends, who sent many bouquets over the footlights. The Junior Musical Art snd Liter ary Society was founded by Valerie Hickerson.

It is an organization of talented children under the direction of Allen H. Hickerson. Last year the society gave "Midsummer Night's Dream. at the Montauk. with a sue cess equal to last night's performance of "The Merchant of FOB FOR J.

Road Morgan Books Show Its Sale. Washington, June 6 Investigation Into the financial affairs of the New York, New Haven Hartford Hail-road, which the Interstate Commerce Commission has been conducting several weeks, practically was concluded late today. Commissioner McChurd announcing the inquiry would be discontinued for the present. He said if the commission decided it was necessary to hold any more public hearings would notify those persons it want ed lo hear, as well as the attorneys Interested In the New Haven case. He also intimated it might be necessary to take depositions.

It is believed no Important teeti mony relative to the New Haven's financial alfairs remains lo be taken. It is thought the witnesses already hearu have furnished the commission with enough material on which to frame its report to the Senate called for by the Norris resolution directing the inquiry. David E. Brown, an examiner for the commission, testified his inspection of the records of the New England Navigation Company failed to disclose the purchase of tbe Worcester, Nashua und Rochester road by the New Haven, although J. P.

Morgan books showed the sale was made through the Morgan firm. Mr. Brown, replying to a question by Counsel Joseph W. Folk, said that the books of the Morgan company were correct, the records of the navigation company must be false. After testifying that a dividend on the 1UU.948 shares of Boston and Maine stock held by John L.

Billard was turned over to the New England Navigation Company by Mr. Billard, but entered on its books as interest on r.otes of the New England Investment and Security Company, Mr. Brown said: "I made the accusation to the general auditor of the company that it was a falsification of records. 1 did not have the information at that time to substantiate my point. It was by deduction that I came to the conclusion, but I subsequently found the file of the treasurer, which verifies my eonclusion, and I showed him thai file." L.

S. Miller, president of the New York, Westchester and Boston Rail way, called to the stand at the re quest of Walker D. Hines, an attor ney of the New Haven, testified as to details ot the transactions leading the acquisition of the Westchester road He said the road was an asset lo tbe New Haven, in that it helped rcliev the Now Haven's passenger traffic en tering New Yoik. John A. Garver, attorney for Will iam Rockefeller, stated that Mr.

June 6 Alexander Smith t'oohran's Vanitie defeated Resolute, the flag officers boat of the New York Yacht Club, in the first race of the series for the Vice Commodore Kletoher Cup, under the auspices of the Larchmont Yacht Club, here today. Vanitie won by 5 minutes 52 seconds, elapsed time, over a 29-mile course. As the Cochran boat had to allow Resolute 3 minutes 12 seconds, the "golden beauty" actually won by 2 minutes 4U seconds corrected time.

It was the fourth race between the two boats built for the honor of de fending the America's Cup. While these races do not actually count in the pick-1 mg ot a defender, the contest today was oi tne greatest interest, as yachts scored points of the Fletcher prize. Vanitie scored 5 points on the trophy today and 2 points are up for Resolute. Two more races have to be sailed, and by that time Defiance, the third cup boat, will be In the struggle. The race today was sailed in exceedingly light airs.

Toward the close of the second round a smoky sou'wester worked down the Sound and the yucin.i had a good breeze at the finish. The contest cemented the impression that Resolute is a heavy-weather craft and that Vanitie is a witch In light breezes. Those who have followed the boats in all their work to date believe Hhat Vanitie also Is olng to be a good craft in a blow. Resolute was sailed by Charles Francis Adams. II, the Boston Corinthian, who Is the skipper of the craft.

On board was J. Pier pont Morgan and Cornelius two or the syndicate that own the craft. There also was on board -R." W. Emmons, II, the Corinthian manager; (i. E.

Cormack, secretary of the Ni York Yacht Club, and James Parkinson. On board of Vanitie was Alexander Smith Cochran, William earner, the designer of the boat: F. M. Hoyt, Charles Lane Poor and R. E.

Perkins. The boat as sailed by Captain "Bill" Dennis, the Long Island professional. Start Postponed Fifteen Minutes. It was the usual Long Island Sound weather when the regatta committee tug established the starting line off Parsonage Point. The wind was light and from the north-northwest.

The tide was east and about half ebb. The regatta committee, made up of Horace E. Boucher, Henry L. Maxwell and Francis M. Wilson, decided upon a fifteen-minute postponement.

The course signals, therefore, were set at 1 p.m. At that hour there was a trreat fleet of steam, sail and power civtft around the starting line. In the fleet was Commodore Elverson's Allegro, K. C. Benedict's Oneida, Leonard Richards' Carola IV, H.

L. Maxwell's Stilletto, Alexander Smith Cochran's Mohican, Lloyd Phoenix's Intrepid, M. Pnchon's Marie, Henry Walter's Narada. Hendon Chubb's Queen Mab, F. M.

Wilson's Boseo, the new Katura, the property of R. E. Tod and Harry Payne Whitney's "Warrior." The course chosen by Chairman Bou- chr was a triangular one. The first leg was northeaHt by east, east to Red Spar buoy, 24hi off Greenwich Point. The leg was miles.

As the breeze came, the yachts had a reach on the port tack to the first mark. Resolute, with a big balloon set, was the first to come down on the mark. A club topsail and mainsail also were up on each craft. Vanitie tarried a staysail, jib and small ballooner. Charles Francis Adams II vtns at tbe whel of liesolu'e.

As usual In his shirt sleeves, Captain "Kill" Dennis sailed Vanitie. Although Resolute was leading, Cap tain Dennis nad vanitie to windward. f.th boats were late at tbo start and neither crossed within the two-inhii'te andicup allowed by the rules. Reso- lute was docked at 1:17:14 and Vanitie followed at The official time of the start was, therefore, 1:17:00 for each craft. Just as the boats were crossing the line, the power yncliet Buffalo of Miami.

and the high-speed power boat Wee Peter Pan, got In the way of Vanitie. cnptain Dennis had to luff his cralt off the course to avoid ramming Buffalo, and so Resolute was able to increase her lead. It was exceedingly unfortunate as Vanitie was rapidly overhauling Resolute and on the letter's wind. Soon after crossing, Resolute set her Jib and stood toward the renter of the Sound. The move proved to be a poor one as Vanitln found a better slant of wind and footed faster than the flag officer's craft.

Each boat had then changed their big ballooners for lg reai hing Jib topsails. As Vanitie moved up to windward, Resolute started to luff. The game suited Captain Dennis, and carrying a better breeze, he walked through Resolute' wind at and took the lead.

SENATE MAY HALT ANTI-TRUST PLANS Only Trade Commission Bill Likely to Pass Upper House Now. OTHERS SENT TO COMMITTEES Attitude of Senate Unfavorable Further Legislation Tending to Unsettle Business. to Washington, June 6 Preparations were made today in the Senate to take up anti-trust legislation as soon as the Panama tolls exempton repeal bill disposed of next week. The Interstate Commerce Committee voted to report out for the present a bill creating Federal trade commission and the three anti-trust bills passed yesterday by the House were received by the Senate and sent to committees for consideration. There they probably will rest for several weeks, at least.

Chairman Newlands of the Interstate Commerce Committee today he would report the trade commission bill to the Senate early nevt week and attempt to have it made the unfinished business, if he succeeds the bill will come up Immediately for discussion, and the long debate, that even the most optimistic Senators see ahead, will begin. Few Senators on either side of I the question Qf, trust legislation are predicting how far the Senate will go toward passing measures equivalent in scope to the House bills. There is a strong sentiment to pass merely the trade commission bill and adjourn, the belief being that such legislation is sufficient for the present. Whether this spirit will prevail Is a matter for speculation. Altnough no record vote was taken In the Commerce Committee today, several Senators are known to have been opposed to any notion to put any sort of trust legislation before the Senate at this time.

Senator Bran-degee, a Republican member of the committee, tonight Issued a statement saying: "In view of the widespread business depression and the apprehension which prevails in commercial and financial centers, I regard the projection of these questions concerning the further inspection and regulation of business by the Federal Government into the Congressional arena at this time as a grave mistake. "The measure creating this commission will serve as the vehicle upon which to load all the other propositions granting further regulatory and inquisitorial powers to the various Federal commissions. All the measures hastily passed by the House can be offered on the floor of the Senate as amend ments to this bill and every radical proposal which has ever been formulated or which the Ingenuity of man can devise will doubtless he proposed, debated and pressed to a vote. "I do not think that a worn and ex asperated Congress, which has been In continuous session for more than year, should be forced to enter upon the discussion of all these Intricate and cntroverted questions In midsummer, on the ever of a nation-wide political campaign. I do not think the agitation and debate wil Itend to restore confidence to the distracted and drooping business of the country.

I think the best service Congress can render Is to pass the appropriation hills and adjourn, and let the country have a rest, and If possible recover Its own wits." The commerce committee concluded its hearings today with the testimony of Representatives of the I nited States Chamber of Commerce, who showed that a poll of Its membership on a Trade Commission bill gave o22 votes for a bill similar to that passed by the House with 124 against it.

a i SAILORS DEARLY MURDER BUTCHER Attack Him With Revolvers and Beat Him Insensible in Row Over Fowl. ON STEAMSHIP VESTRIS. Man Dying- in Hospital at BuenaB Ayres (Whsre Fight Occurred), and Assailants Locked TJp. The Lamport and Holt Steamship Company's vessel, Vestris, tugs idly at her moorings at Pier 11 of the Brooklyn, waterfront today. Nothing about her would indicate that since her last visit to this port battle and perhaps murder have taken place between her decks.

The Vestris la of between 6,000 and 7,000 tons burden, and has just come up from South America with about 275 cabin passengers, many more in the steerage, and a cargo of some 20,000 frozen beef and mutton carcasses from La Plata, Brazil. Her homeward trip was more or less uneventful and was made in 20 days and 17 hours, the fastest time the Vestris has ever made for the voyage. It was on her way southward that things began to happen. When a few days out to sea, one of the stewards contracted blood poisoning in his thumb and the ship's doctor declared it necessary to amputate the digit. The operation was performed without anesthetic, the patient being held down upon the table by several of the crew.

On the last few honrs of her run from Montevideo to Buenos Ayres, tho Vestris ran into a storm of great violence, and was several times in imminent danger of turning completely ov r. After brief delay, however, she made the port in safety. It was while the ship lay off Buenos Ayres, during seventeen consecutive days of incessant rain, that the monotony which had tried the nerves cf the crew resulted in a fracas such as one reads of in stories of. the Spanish Main. Some members of the crew had been in the habit of stealing foodstuffs from the pantry and selling them to the poorer element of the people ashore.

On a certain evening one of the crew, a ticotchman, well under the influence of South American whiskey, came to the ship's butcher and demanded a fowl. The butcher refused to give it to him, and upbraided the sailor, char-ring him with having previously stolen large quantities of the ship's stores One word led to another, and finally tho butcher ordered the sailor out of the larder, and upon his refusal to leave, threatened him with his steel. he sailor seized the implement, and there ensued a struggle for its possession, in the course of which the sailor received a bad gash over his eye. His cries of rage brought assistance In tho form of two of his forecastle mates, an and an Englishman, who fell upon the butcher, a burly Gciman, and with the butts of their revolvers beat him into insensibility. By this time the noise of the row brougbt one of the officers, who restored order at the point of a gun, and had all the participants put in irons, pending tho arrival r.f tho shore police.

The German butcher was removed to a hospital ashore, and at the time of the Vestris' departure was in a dying condition. His assailants were left in chares of the authorities ot Buenos Ayres, and In the event of the death of their victim, will probably meet with capital punishment.
