VALHALLA BURIAL PARK 38 Court Street, Brooklyn Triangle 8276, WILKINS' RELIEF SHIP OFF TO GET FLIERS FROM ISLE Expects to Reach Spitzbergen on Saturday and Norway Next Week. London, April 25 -The steamship Mina was headed for the icebound waters off Green Harbor, Spitzbergen, today to bring Capt.

George H. Wilkins to Europe. The ship was ordered to approach as near Green Harbor as posible and take on Captain Wilkins and Carl B. Eielson and the airplane in which they flew across unexplored polar regions from Point Barrow, Alaska. The ship, owned by the Northern Exploration Company, was at Honningsvaag, Finmark, Norway, when sailing orders were received.

Ship Expected Saturday. It was expected to reach the mouth of Isf jord (Ice Fiord) Spitzbergen, on which Green Harbor is located, about Saturday. It was hoped that the fliers would be brought to Tromsoe, Norway, early next week. Indications were that as soon as possible Wilkins would begin active preparations for a flight to the South Polar regions. He has already drawn up a tentative program for exploration in the unknown regions the Antarctic and hopes to start for there about the beginning of September.

Medal for Wilkins. The New York Times today printed a dispatch from Captain Wilkins saying he had decided tine wait the arrival of a ship at nearest point of embarkation. He doubted whether he and Eielson would be able to leave Green Harbor before the middle of May. The first award of the Samuel Finley Breese Morse Gold Medal of American Geographic Society has been made to Captain Wilkins for "his three years' explorations in the Arctic, culminating in his flight of April 15, 16, 1928." The board of directors of the society, meeting in New York, unanimously voted the award, which is the highest honor the society confers. Captain Wilkins was notified of the honor by wireless.

Woman Saved From Ocean Fights to Get Back to Die Moaning "Let me die, let me die," a woman who said she was Mrs.

Anna Hearn, 40, of 204 Hale Brooklyn, was prevented, the police say, from drowning herself in the ocean last night at the foot of W. 12th Coney Island, and was removed to the Coney Island Hospital in a critical condition. Several persons on the boardwalk near 12th st. saw the woman walk directly into the ocean. David Lesser of 3039 Ocean who has a concession on the boardwalk, dashed into the surf and brought the woman ashore.

Policeman John Kenny and Lesser gave the woman first aid until Dr. Klein arrived from the Coney Island Hospital. The woman fought to get back into the water. She refused to tell what prompted her act. Doctor and Policeman Revive 2 Gas Oceanside, L.

It is believed a leaky hot water heater caused Mrs. Lutz and Carpenter to be overcome.

Another workman in house found the couple lying on the kitchen floor and notified the police. Sgt. Otto Helwig and Patrolman Leroy Husser and John Leff responded and summoned a doctor. Spanish King's Cousin Sued by N. Y.

to Drop as Small Consumers Pay More. John I. Blanchfield, rate expert of the Brooklyn Union Gas Company, explained the new gas rates to the West End Community League at P.S. 159, Pitkin ave. and Crescent st.

last night, in the hope that "everyone could reach understanding of the problems involved." Simplified he said that if the average gas bill 1 in a home is $3.50 it will be changed under the new rates. If it is higher than that, the new bill will be lower. But if the average bill is below $3.50 the new rates will make higher bills. The maximum increase will be 72 cents a month, and that will go to the consumer who uses practically no gas now, Mr. Blanchfield said.

He explained, too. that the company would temporarily turn off gas for summer months when families are away and that there would be no charge. Return of the family would bring further use of gas, the meter would be turned in again and $1 would be charged for the whole service. Most of his speech was given over to answering questions which have been placed before the gas company. But he insisted that there would be an actual saving in gas bills for those who use more than $3.50 worth of gas a month.

Those who use less than that will probably have pay more than they do now, he admitted. "In the letter which you received announcing the adjustment in rates, we referred to the 'convenience he continued. Convenience Customer. "It is this customer who is affected to the greatest extent by this rate. By this term we do not mean to include the family making more than convehience use of gas.

We do mean the customer who makes only intermittent or convenience use of our service. This customer in the past had been carried by the customers using above the average amount of gas. I can best illustrate my point by calling attention to a letter received the other day. "A customer asks me to remove the meter as he does not wish to pay under the new rates. Examination of this customer's account discloses the fact that for a period of five years this customer used a total of 800 cubic feet of gas, paying therefore 92 cents.

A fair estimate of this customer's portion the common burden during this period was at least $60. He paid 92 cents. Who paid the difference? Under the present form of rates each is called upon to pay at the rate based on the extent to which he avails himself of the service." Mattituck Woman Has 95th Birthday Mattituck, L. April 25-Mrs. George B.

Reeve, Mattituck's "grand old lady," celebrated her 95th birthday anniversary Monday in full possession of every faculty and in fairly good physical health. Scores of her friends here and elsewhere remembered the day and sent messages and other evidences of their esteem best wishes for still other anniversaries of this sort.

Storey, speaking before a meeting of the the 17th A. D. Hall, 78 Young People's Republican, Club of Herkimer last night, took exception to Governor Smith's declaration that the present legislators were better fitted for a padded cell. Assemblyman Storey went on to show that bills had been passed reducing the real estate taxes 50 percent and also increasing the investing powers of savings banks. These, he stated, were attributed to Governor Smith when in reality both personally and politically the Coroner was opposed to them.

FUNERAL PARLORS AND SHOW ROOMS Rogers Ave. and Montgomery Street Phone Slocum 6334 Cumberland 1920 FUNERAL PARLORS AND SHOWROOMS Boro President Appoints 0'Dwyer Consulting Engineer in Sewer Bureau. Boro President Patten of Queens today threw out all bids for the relocation of the tracks of the Manhattan and Queens Trolley Company on Queens blvd.

between 73d st. and Jacobus Elmhurst, en because the lowest bidder wanted $10,000 more for the job than the boro engineers had estimated worth. The contracts, however, were advertised for the bids submitted last November, just before the sewer and sundry scandals began to descend on Mr. Patten's predecessor, former Boro President Maurice E. Connolly.

The engineers' estimate for trolley job was $11,671.50, while the lowest bid submitted, by the Eastern Contracting Company, was $21,570.50. Bids Undiscovered Until Today. For some unexplained reason, probably because Connolly was immediately thereafter engaged in marshaling an elaborate defense for the Scudder and Shearn inquiries, the bids had lain in a Boro Hall desk unacted upon until Mr. Patten discovered them today. "My action needs no explanation." said the Boro President.

"The bids will be readvertised, and must come within reasonable range of our own estimates." O'Dwyer in Moore's Job. The Boro announced the appointment Engineer President, Paul V. O'Dwyer to post of consulting engineer in the sewer bureau. He will succeed Clifford B. Moore, whose name has been frequently mentioned in the sewer scandal testimony and who a few days ago was given a 45-day leave of absence without pay.

O'Dywer's appointment, it was believed, makes it apparent that Moore's resignation is expected. The new consulting engineer has been in the Queens service since 1906 and will receive an increase in pay of from $4,250 a year to $8,000. Moore and Rice Face Charges. That if Moore and James A. Rice, chief engineer of bureau under Connolly, suspended by Mr.

Pattent Monday, do not resign they will be placed on charges before the Municipal Civil Service Commission was indicated, by the Boro President today. Patten requested Commissioner of Accounts Higgins and Chairman Byrnes of the Board of Assessors for transcripts of testimony involving the two engineers in the sewer scandal hearings. MRS. A. E.
