Ma Issuance of injunctions restraining hp police from interfering with legitimate licensed amusements, the assurance ot "Little Sullivan, the Acting Jlnvor, that lie was against the closing of Coney Island and the enforcement of blue laws, and a graceful modification of bis views on the situation by Police Commissioner Uingham, were the chief developments in the Coney Island situation today. Commissioner Bingham did not lack down from his former statement, but he modified his declaration, and said he would not interfere in any way with iegilimale amusements at the seashore resort. Tins statement was made to a delegation of Coney Island business men and amusement place proprietors, who claimed to jcpresent an investment of K. OUO, and who declared the closing of Coney jsland on Sundays meant rum tor them. I nion labor organizations, as well as civic and reform organizations in all parts of the city are ready to take up the subject, and all will have representatives at Coney Island tomorrow to see what happens.

Nine injunctions were issued by Judge "Luke D. Stapleton. in the Supreme Court in restraining the police from interfering in any way witli legitimate amusement places where the law was not being broken and no unlawful acts being committed. Tempest iu Teapot Not in years before have Episi-opal Church musical circles been so much aaitatcd as they were today over the letter sent by twenty organists to Bishop Creer and the trustees of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, protesting: asrainst the action of the trustees in dismissing Walter Henry Hall, organist of the Cathedral, and one of the best "known church musicians in the country.

Rev. Ernest Voorliis. Canon Precentor of the Cathedral, with whom Mr. Hall is said to have had a misunderstanding that resulted in the iccpiest for his resignation, said lie had nothing to add to the statement given out by him a few lays 020. At that time he was quoted as savins: that the trti-toes of the Cthe-Hray were of the opinion "Sir.

Hal could not hold two positions and do justice both of them. He said this was one of the reasons whv Mr. Hall had been asked to resign. Rev. Mr.

Yoorhis paid statement of the trustees' side would have to come from Bishop Creer. Bishop (Jreer declined to be interviewed on th. matter. ft is understood that Miles Farrow, of "Baltimore, has been engaged to succeed Mr. Hall.

Labor Leader Confessing that Aduiitn Stnliltine lie stabbed Alice Walsh eleven times, Cornelius T. Shea, t'irmci- treasurer of the International Teamsters' Cnion. was taken rrom police adquarters today to be arraigned on a charge of assault to kill, which mav later be changed to murder.

C. May There is a split in the ranks of the income tax advocates which threatens to bury that measure in a very deep grave. A few days ago the Republicans and Democrats who favor an income tax had a joint meeting and decided that theie only hope was of standing together upon a cnmiirnmiso Villi. Senator Railey, who had introduced a bill on behalf of the Democrats, agreed to waive all rights -of authorship if a goad income tax compromise could liT affected. Senator Cummins, Republican, of Iowa, who had introduced a hill supposed to embody the ideas of the radicd I i Xiepuuiica us, nmm- tuc s.mo nti.

Willinis: to Compromise They were models of courtesy and politeness towards each other. Each was o-illincr tn creat concession to trie- other in order that the Democrats and tin radical Republicans might be united a common ground. They even agreed upon the kind of bill that would meet the situation cne providing for ajw.i per cent, tax on all incomes above individual and corporation alike. Rut then came the question of should write the bill. Mr.

Cummins was willing that Mr. Bailey should write it. Mr. Bailey was willing that Mr. Cummins should write it.

Mr. Bailey and Mr. Cummins continued to be the essence of brotherly love aud suavity. Rut their followet were not so polite. Some of the followers Mr.

Cummins would not xote for a bill written by Mr. Bailey. Some of Mr. Bailey followers would not vole for a bill written by Mr. Cummins.

To Present Two Bills As a matter of fact, some of the followers on both sides are not very anxious to follow if they can help it. For various reasons some of the Democrats and Republicans who really do not like the income tax idea are committed to it. They are willing to make this excuse to get out of their bargain. Now Bailey is going to introduce a bill containing his idea ot a compromise and Mr. Cummins will introduce a Compromise bill of his own, leaving the situation virtually where it was before the compromise was reached.

Meanwhile, Senator Aldrich and the other leaders of the Senate simply smile sympathetically and make plans to defeat the income tax proposition either coming or going, anyway the Democrats and insurgents want to take their medicine. Fares I.onis 1'ost ponemen Xo matter what happens, Aldrich is now confident of having a majority ot votes to send the hill, or bills, to the Judiciary Committee to pass upon the constitutional points involved. This will postpone the matter until December at least. President Taft is stid to beheve that this should be done so that the tariff issue mav not be confused, and this knocks another prop from under the feet of the income tax brigade.

"Hefore you make the examination," he said, "vou will find an. injury that might -convince you that. I am the man, but I am not, for the cut and bruise on my leg were received by my being struck by the crank of another automobile." From the hospital the man was taken to Pranchtown, where he was scrutinized by several persons who saw the victim of the automobile accident.

They de-elared that he was not the man, but he strongly resembled the victim. Wright was afterward taken to City Hall. After being led to a c-ell he gave the police information which directs suspicion toward a man who resembles the prisoner to such a great extent that they have frequently been mistaken for each other.
