Walker et this court has equitable jurisdiction to restrain the criminal prosecution herein, which are alleged to have interfered with the plaintiff rights of property (Truax v.

Raisch, 239 U. S. 33, 37). Legality of Buses Not Relevant "This court is of the opinion that the illegality of the operation buses in the streets of the City of New York under the supervision and control of the Department of Plant and Structures has no bearthe problem before it. The upon sole question here is whether the criminal prosecution of the plaintiff bus drivers for violation of the city ordinance in question can be enjoined by a court of equity.

This is simply a case where equity is invoked to interfere with the enforcement of the ordinances, the violation of which constitutes a misdemeanor. This will not be done. Cannot Rule on Ordinance "Whether or not the plaintiff's have been arrested or employes. to the Magistrate's Court under an illegal ordinance cannot be determined by this court as the basic question of illegality cannot be decided by a court of equity upon mere affidavits, but should be determined in an action at law.

Mayor Talbot Refers to Vote Mayor Charles N. Talbot, when called by telephone last night, was unaware of the action of the Grand Jury, and said that he didn't know if any action would be taken by the Village Board. The records, he said, showed he had voted at the trial. Further than that, he had nothing to say. Trustee Frank Hegarty also was in ignorance of the Grand Jury's exoneration of Rosenswaike.

When informed, he said he was glad to hear of it, saying that both he and Mayor Talbot had voted against the removal of the former chief. Trustee McLaughlin was in Brooklyn and could not be reached, while Trustees James Scully and Edwin DeNyse refused to make a statement last night, Rosenwaike, as a result of a police trial before the Mayor and Village Trustees of Island Park on Aug. 18, was removed as Chief Police, demoted to the grade of patrolman, of and fined two week's pay. At this trial the vote stood three to one for removal, Trustees John J. McLaughlin, Edwin DeNyse, and James Scully voting affirmatively and Mayor Talbot voting against removal.

Trustee Hegarty refused to vote. Chief Tried on Three Charges Rosenswaike was tried on three charges: refusing to apologize to Trustee Scully, being cone and 8 half hours late for duty on June 26, and accepting money from Nicholas Herman, a grocer of Island Park, to fix a case before Judge Perl. Former Judge Morris Alfred Vogel Long Beach and Frederick Shaw of Oceanside, counsel for Rosenswaike, on Aug. 31, obtained a writ signed by Justice John Vunk, requiring the Village Board to submit all papers, records, testimony and a copy of the decision, for review by the Supreme Court on Sept. 19.

Following Rosenswaike's demotion, charges of perjury were filed against Herman, on whose testimony Rosenswaike was found guilty. These charges are now being investigated by the Grand Jury. In clearing the names of Justice Perl and Rosenswaicke, the Summer Grand Jury handed up an unusual presentment, together with an indictment against an unnamed person, who figured in the accusations against the two officials. Grand Jury Incensed It was apparent from terms of the presentment that the Grand Jurors were incensed against those persons who gave testimony against the officials. The chief witness, who recanted his statement, was Sgt.

Fred Barth, who resigned from the village force. to initiate thorough investigation The District, Attorney is expected to get at the bottom of the alleged plot. When Barth came before the Grand Jury in July he said he was instructed by Chief Rosenswaicke to to a hotel owned by Michael Vadga with a defendant in a traffic case and collect some money. He said $60 was collected, and he paid the $10 fine, legally; gave Judge Perl $25 and divided the other $25 equally with the police chief. Barth said he received six $10 bills, but could not explain how he divided a $10 bill into fractions so that he and the chief shared the $25 equally, each getting $12.50.

Barth Retracts Story Barth's retraction followed shortly afterwards, and with it came indications of a plot by political enemies of the judge and police chief to ina jure them. The investigation is now aimed against those who are believed to have concocted the charges against Judge Perl and Chief Rosenswaicke. Barth says he was induced to tell the false story by certain persons who intimated that if he aided them in an attempt to oust the judge and police chief he would be considered for promotion. Grand Judy's Presentment "This Grand Jury has listened to a great amount of testimony regarding alleged acts of various publie officers and employes of the Village of Island Park, During the latter days of our term unusual developments occurred which indicated the possible existence of a very situation remarkable with respect and to the reprehensible man- ner in which a charge of accepting a bribe had been instigated against certain of the said officers. We believe and recommend that this matter should be the object of a full and searching investigation by the District Attorney, and that when all the facts are obtained a later Grand Jury should receive a full presentment of them in order that just and adequate action may be taken."
