T. U. (British therman unit) as enacted by the Legislature is confiscainvalid, as alleged by the Queensboro Gas and Electric Comthe proposed opinion and finding of Alvah W. Burlingame, special appointed by the United States District Court, who today sent his finding to counsel for the respective parties as required by law. An opportunity will be given to counsel for the company, the State Service Commission o'clock FriAttorney General and, the Public day afternoon, at the office of the special master, to present for consideration "suggestions and requests in respect to the tentative opinion and report." Final Report Coming.

Following the presentation of the "suggestions and requests," Special Master Burlingame, whose office at 26 Court will complete and file his final report and findings, which will then come before the Special Statutory Court the Eastern District of New York for final hearing and determinaton upon the motion of the Gas Company to confirm the report. The opinion and findings of Special Master recommend to the Special Statutory Court that judgment be entered in favor of the company against any enforcement of a $1 rate or 650 B. T. U. standard.

The report thus sustains fully the preliminary injunction granted by the Special Statutory Court and advises that the interlocutory injunction should be made permanent. Last to Be Decided. The Queensboro Gas and Electric Company operates in the Fifth Ward of the Boro of Queens (the Rockaways) and in the southwestern part of Nassau County (Town of Hempstead). It member of the Long Island Lighting Company group of gas and electric companies, of which Ellis L. Phillips is the head.

The $1 statute related only to the company's sale of gas within the City of New York, where the present rate is $1.30 for gas of 550 B. T. U. on the monthly average. This rate and standard were fixed by orders of the Public Service Commission in 1922.

The rate case of the Queensboro Gas and Electric Company is the last to be decided in the series of actions involving the constitutionality of Chapter 799 of the Laws of 1923, prescribing a $1 gas rate for New York City. All the other gas companies have previously obtained judgments in their favor, duly affirmed by the United States Supreme Court. In determining the value of the company's useful gas property the special master said he followed the recent decisions of the courts in adopting the basis of present reproduction cost new, less actual depreciation (cost to restore). Upon the subject of rate of return the special master reported that: "The uncontradicted testimony showed and the cases warrant a holding. that the, plaintiff is entitled to earn an 8 percent return upon the value of its property."

Chicago, April 17 man wearing a blue polkadot mask held up 10 passengers in the observation car of the Overland Limited as it pulled out of the Chicago and Northwestern Station last night and escaped with cash and jewelry valued at $5,000 or more.

Among those robbed was W. H. Crocker, president of the Crocker Nationa! Bank of San Francisco and Republican National Committeeman of California; his daughter, Helen, who was with him, was robbed of some cash but succeeded in saving her jewels. The holdup quickly accomplished and the robber gone before the alarm was spread. Flashing a on the occupants of the observation car, whom he herded to the rear platform, the robber passed rapidly from one to the other, taking wallets, purses, rings and other jewelry.

When the train was approaching Kedzie traveling about 45 miles an hour, the man pulled the emergency cord, automatically setting the brakes. He dropped into the darkness of the yards as the train stopped. It was not until the limited, which is the crack Chicago- West Coast train of the Northwestern, had reached Clinton, Iowa, that an accurate description of the robber was available. When the limited stopped there, special officers questioned passengers and learned that the robber was a small, dark man in his early twenties, shabbily dressed. His weapon was described as a bi ba revolver.

DRIVER SENTENCED TO 6-MONTH TERM FOR DEATH OF GIRL Judge Attacks Traffic Conditions in Sending Vincent Hoskey to Prison. Drivers who nave their motorcar licenses revoked in New York city for reckless driving and other violations are in the habit of going across the river to Jersey and securing licenses there, County Judge Franklin Taylor declared today in the course of a severe criticism of present day traffic conditions. The cause of his address was the sentencing of Vincent, Hoskey, 22, of 112 15th to six months in Raymond Street Jail for the death of Josephine Blauvis, 10, of 534 3d who was knocked down by a motorcar driven by Hoskey on Feb. 16 as she was crossing 15th st. and 3d ave.

"Traffic conditions were never as bad as they are today," said Judge Taylor. "Trucks and pleasure care are driven with utter disregard for careful drivers and pedestrians. A pedestrian has a harder time getting across the street at the crossing than he does in the middle of the block. "It is a matter of record that persons who have their licenses revoked in this city go across to New Jersey and get new ones there. These licenses are only good for two weeks, but with no adequate means of checking them up, they are as good as bona fide New York licenses." Judge Taylor sentenced Alphonse Harrison, 21, a negro, of 152 Jefferson to five years in Sing Sing Prison for stealing the car of Samuel Hyman of 621 Crown st.

on Jan. 28. "Eagle Eye" Gus Schalkman, the traffic officer on the Wiliamsburg Bridge, nabbed him. MEET TO INDORSE SMITH.

Frost. JOHN F. FROST DIES AFTER STROKE OF APOPLEXY, AGED 83 President of Brooklyn Citizen Long Was Active in Demo- cratic Politics. John F. Frost, 83, president of the Brooklyn Citizen, with which he had been associated since the of its foundation by the late Andrew McLean more than 40 years died at 9 o'clock this morning at his home, 9964 3d ave.

He had been in good health until last Friday, when he suffered a stroke of apoplexy. Mr. Frost was born in Brooklyn on Feb. 21, 1845, in the old 5th Ward. This is the ward which graduated many of the old-time leaders of the Democratic party in this county and Mr.

Frost was the boyhood companion of all of them. The friendships contracted in boyhood with men like late Carty, James Hugh Shevlin, McLaughlin, Senator John John Mice Clancy, Bernard J. York and dozens of others were never broken. Mr. Frost survived all of these friends of his boyhood and young manhood.

Was Active Democrat. It was quite natural that the political activities of his boyhood friends in the Democratic party attracted him likewise and for more than a generation he did yeoman service for the Democratic, party during his residence Ward. This activity brought its reward in the shape of an early appointment as keeper of the penitentiary more than 50 years ago. Still later, Mr. Frost was connected with the Register's office and the Controiler's office.

In 1902, in company with a brother, he started in the coal business under the name and style of Frost Brothers. After 10 years of successful operation of this business he sold out to Arbuckle Brothers. Throughout the 40 years' leadership of Hugh McLaughlin, Mr. Frost was a daily visitor "Willoughby st." and enjoyed the confidence of both Mr. McLaughlin and Mr.

Shevlin. The veteran leader had the highest respect for the loyalty, trustworthiness and personal integrity of Mr. Frost and employed him as his confidential agent in many of his private business affairs. He possessed an extensive memory and could recall the most important happenings in Brooklyn during the last 80 years. In many of these happenings he was a participant.

He saw Brooklyn grow from a village to its present dimensions. He had a fervent love of his native city and was never happy except when he was at home. He was a remarkably well preserved man and did not look within 20 years of his age. In his death, another survivor of the McLaughlin "Old Guard" has gone. Married in 1876.

Mr. Frost was married to Caroline E. Lewis on Oct. 16, 1876, and two years ago celebrated his golden wedding anniversary, surrounded by his children, grandchildren and intimate friends. For the past 18 years Mr.

Frost had lived in Fort Hamilton. He was one of the pioneers of that growing section and was active in the local political organization and civic bodies. He is survived by his widow, 10 children, five girls and five boys, 17 grandchildren and cne great-grandchild. The children are Mrs. Harry J.

McMahon, John F. Frost Mrs. Paul J. McGuire, Alfred Frost, Mrs. William E.

Halpin, Edwin Frost, Mrs. William Dacy, Mrs. William A. Ruddy, Arthur Frost and Lewis Frost. The funeral arrangements have not been completed.

Praised by McCooey. John H. McCooey, Democratic chief- tain, said this "I have known John F. Frost for more than 40 years. He was a most estimable gentleman and his loss will be sorely felt among his many friends in Brooklyn.

Mr. Frost combined the qualities of the high executive together with those social attributes which made him most popular. "During his many years in business and public life I have never known him to do anything that would cast discredit on his good reputation. I consider Mr. Frost one of my best 30,000 Textile Workers Strike Against Wage Cut New Bedford, April 17 (P)- Thirty thousand textile workers were idle here today in protest against a 10 percent wage cut which became effective Monday in the mills of 27 corporations engaged in the manufacture of cotton, silk and rayon goods.

COURT REFUSES DIVORCE TO MATE OF INSANE WOMAN Justice May Insists Mrs. Diehl Must Be Given Chance to Tell Her Story. The effort of John Diehl of 163-49 Claude Jamaica, to sever the legal ties that bind him to his wife, Mrs. Josephine Diehl, who 1s in Brooklyn State Hospital and described as "hopelessly insane," were thwarted today by Justice Mitchell May in Supreme Court, who said he would not sign a decree of diverce as asked for by Diehl until such time as Mrs. Diehl shall have an opportunity properly to present her side of the story in court.

history of the litigations instituted by the plaintiff against his wife to obtain decree of the Court to relieve him of her support creates a grave suspicion as to his Justice May. "The guardian appointed herein has given no aid to sign no decree until the defendant is afforded such opportunity as may be available to present her side of the case." The Diehls 'were married in April, 1919, and have no children. She was committed to the hospital Feb. 12, 1926, by Queens County Judge Frank Adel. In November, 1927, more than a year and a half later, Diehl began a divorce suit, accusing her of misconduct with "an unknown man" at 304 Stanhope Brooklyn, in November, 1919.

Later an amended complaint was served, adding another accusation, that she had been guilty with an "unknown man" in Springfield Gardens, when they lived there from May, 1924, to March, 1925. Lawrence M. Woolley of 161-19 Jamaica ave. was appointed special guardian to represent her. He filed an answer saying that she could not confer with him, that he had no information one way or the other about the alleged misconduct charge and that she placed her rights and interest under the protection of the Court.

Mr. Woolley, however, brought out that prior to the wife's commitment to the hospital, she had obtained a separation decree in which Diehl was ordered to pay her $12.50 a week, and that he had paid only part of it. Also that Diehl had brought suit for annulment, which he never pressed for trial. Bible Test Answers 1. 70,000.

HUNT BOY FIREBUG AS THIRD BLAZE IS FOUND IN CHURCH Seen Running From Holy Family Building- -Father Gres- ser's Hands Slightly Burned. Police are looking for a 9-year-old boy who, it is believed, has three times tried to start a fire in the recently Church of the Hily Family between 4th and completed, 5th aves.

The boy was seen running from the building last night just after a woman parishioner had discovered flames crackling in straw that was used to pack two statues in a crate. The church, of which the Rev. John S. Gresser is rector, held its first services in the building last Christmas day, and although it has been used since then it is not to be officially dedicated until next Sunday. Three times, counting last night, since the doors were thrown open attempts have been made to set it afire and always, so the police say, a small boy has been seen running away.

Woman Detects Flames. Last night a woman went into the church to pray. She was just leaving, picking her way between several crates of statuary which were in the rear of the church waiting to be placed, when she saw flames leaping from one of the boxes. The crate had statues of the Blessed Virgin and of St. Bernadetti and had come from Italy.

The woman ran through a side door and notified Father Gresser his two assistants, the Rev. Edward J. Kelly and the Rev. William J. Maroney.

Together the four went back into the church, Father Gresser carrying a bucket of water. They found that the flames had eaten through the tightly packed straw and were leaping up the walls of the vestibule. Four buckets of water were thrown on the blaze, and a passerby sent in a call for firemen. The wails of the vestibule were scorched as were the two valuable statues. Father Gresser's hands were slightly burned.

Two weeks ago a pile papers under a pew were found ablaze and shortly before that there was another fire in some straw. Police of the 5th ave. precinct redoubled their efforts to find the boy to-day. They believe he probably set the fires because he liked to see the engines run. Dedication services next Sunday are to be in charge of Bishop Thomas E.

Molloy and it is expected that several other prominent Catholics from the city and State will attend. LOST AND FOUND BANKBOOK-Host; No. 25218, Fort Hamilton Savings Bank of Brooklyn. Issued to Merle Ingalls. Payment stopped.
