EXCLUSIVE DESIGNS AND ELEGANT WORKMANSHIP AT ROTHSCHILD'S. Shoppers know what to expeot from a Rothschild openlnc, whether the same be in Brooklyn. New York or Paris. The nam stands for exclusive design, choice trimmings and elegant workmanship. The present autumn opening is no exception to tho rule, tho large assortment of trimmed mode's being a most satisfactory one in every rospoot.

Refined color combinations nre noted rather than loud, striking ones. Simple elegance is preferred to elaborate extremes. Shot silks and velvets are much used, aigrettes nnd flowers BonnetB with Persian crown pieces finished with soft velvet brims, are generally becoming or can easily be made so. No two shapes are exactly alike, thus allowing for the greatest In mnnyenses the close toques nnd bonnets aro soft blending ot color rather than any marked combinntian. Reds shade to green and green to bine la a marvelous manner, tbo Indistinct blending in a piece of shut silk being the kojnote, perhaps, of tho whole color scheme.

BROOKS' CHALLENGE Td SUCH AS DO NOT BELIEVE IN FILLING IN THE BAST RIVER. To the Editor of Uie Brooklyn Eoele: On September 6. 1694, I sent you a letter which tvnfl published advocating the fllllne In of a portion at least of the East river that would give a solid land coimectlcn between Long Island and MBlxattan. Last Sunday's World has 'an Illustrated article favoring the surra plan and they claim It as a new and original Scheme of theirs, yot I sent them a letter proposing the work and It was published about tjne same date as yours. I said In both letters thai If.

the work waa ever done I wanted my name eonnectied with It and so I call on you to stand by roe and publish' this protest against having my Isthmus over the Mttre nuisance of a gut called the East river stolen from 'me. The room of the East river would be worth more fn land than in mater, I think, and It is a fruitful field for discussion. The ferries are antl quatjed and bridges are expensive and reach too far Inland to accommodate shipping traffic. Now, let some of your readers state objections and I will set tlrerri aside, for there are no obstacles legal, practical or otherwise that need prevent the work. JOHN S.

BROOKES. 12S Fifth avenue, Sertem'ber 21, 1895. THEY MAKE NIGHT HIDEOUS; HOWLING PICNICKERS ON ILLUMINATED TROLLEY CARS. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: I would like to call attention to a matter that not only concerns me but every respectable citizen In Brooklyn, and that Is with regard to the new scheme of the Brooklyn Heights railroad, of Illuminating their cars for excursion parties. Now, while this idea meets with the approval of many people, I think you will coincide with me when.

I say that the people who ride. In such cars should not be allowed to shout or sing at the top of their voices, or create any unnecessary dlstub ance after SfcSO at night on their way; home. For' the last two weeks there have been parties going home past our block, after 1 o'clock In the morning, yelling and singing at the top of their voices. They disturb everybody, and it is unbearable. The conductors should be riven the power to stop all such conduct.

I arn sure that your esteemed and able paper will look Into the matter and have this nuisance stopped. J. W. M. Brooklyn, Septembsr 25, 1835.

The dissolution of partnership among the members of the firm of Wechsler Bros. an intimation of which appepared In the Eagle yesterday, caused considerable comment, although it was not entirely unexpected.

None of the three members of the old firm would talk yesterday, but left the entire matter of communicating with reporters to Man ager Henry p. Burger. The latter stated that the dissolution of partnership was by mutual consent. The members of the firm, Samuel Wechsler, Herman Wechsler and C. Henry Offerman, all retire, and in the future the business will be carried on under the sole direction of Henrv Ofterman, father of the former junior part ner.

Mr. unerman Has acquired the entire stock, leases and good will of the old firm, and will continue the business under his own name. To quote from Mr. Burger's statement: "The business will be reorganized on a very elaborate scale and backed by unlimited capital. C.

Henry Offerman will represent his father In the now concern, and manage the same in conjunction with Henry P. Burger, who has been connected with the house for a number of years as superintendent and manager. The change goes Into effect immediately." The partnership existing began on October 1, 1392, and was to run for three years. When Mr. Offerman was asked why it was brought to a termination a week ahead of time, he simply smiled and said It wa3 done by mutual consent.

He declined to give any other cause for the change or to say what the financial consideration involved amounted to. Herman Wechsler was seen In the store by an Eagle reporter yesterday afternoon and he declared that 'he had nothing to add to the Interview already given by Mr. Burger. "He gave you the whole affair in a nutshell," said Mr. Wechsler, "amd there is really nothing to add that would interest the public." "Is.it true that you and your brother expect to buy out another establishment in this neighborhood?" Mr.

Wechsler was asked. "It Is not," was the emphatic reply. "Has the rumor that you intend, together with your brother, to go into partnership with your fajther any foundation in fact?" Mr. Wechsler declined to answer on way or the other. The dry goods house of S.

Wechsler Bro. was started about twenty five years ago, at 293 Fulton street. In 1891 they removed to their present location and the following year C. Henry Offerman was taken into partnership. His father was the man who built tile store.

When Mr. OtfenBam came to the title was changed to Wechsler Bros. Mr. Offerman being the company. It is announced that the store will be closed on 'Friday and Saturday, to prepare for a closing out sale of old stock.

Storrs, acting president of the board of trustees of the in stitute, will preside. The year book, covering the year 1S94 5, is issued thiB week from the office of the institute, 502 Fulton street. It Is a neatly bound volume of 315 pages and contains a full record of the officers, members and educational work or tne Brooklyn institute for the period em braced. This is the resume of last season's work: 'The amount and character of the work done during the year Just brought to a close are an evidence of the cumulative lnfluenoe of the previous six years of systematic and well directed efforts on the part of the board of trustees, the council, the several departments and the members. Notwithstanding the general financial depression 'of the vear.

and very serious interruption of public travel caused oy the strikes on tne surface railways or the city, the year nas been the most suc cessful in the history of the institute. The number of members was increased from 3,457 to the total number of lectures, conferences, class exercises and department meetings was as against 2,212 In the previous year; the department of law was organised with a membership of 123; the department of entomology was reorganized; the annual receipts increased from $40,169.35 to the temporary museum building was opened to tho public on Thursday and, Saturday afternoons and was visited by several thousand citizens; a fund of $1,500 was raised to aid Professor William H. Goodyear in making a series of surveys and photographs of medieval architecture in Italy; the site of the Brooklyn museum of arts and sciences was surveyed and a plaster cast of the same constructed to show the proper grading of the site and the lands adjacent; the elevation of the base line of the building was fixed at 170 feet above sea level; the working plans and specifications for the first portion of the museum to be erected were completed; the grading of the site was begun and the museum commission advertised for contracts for the erection of the first section of the museum." The pages devoted to the biological laboratory at Cold Spring Harbor are worth looking at. Tho appropriation hy the American association for the advancement of science for original research at the laboratory was awarded to M. A.

Carlton of the department of agriculture, Washington, D. and Oilman Drew of Johns Hopkins university, Baltimore, Md. Mr. Carlton's work was upon "Marine Algae and the Uredlneae," and Mr. Drew's upon the "Fresh Water Bryozoa." The results of their researches have been reported to the association and will be published.

In all ten persons were engaged In original research at Cold Spring Harbor during the season. The roll of students was thirty two. The erection of the new dormitory foi women during the spring made It necessary to purchase a considerable amount of new furniture at an expense of $000. Those who subscribed to the support of the laboratory were Eugene G. Blackford, General John B.

Woodward, Julia M. De Forest, Dr. Oliver L. Jones, Miss: Julia B. De Forest, Dr.

H. Messenger Ayrea and Mr. Addison Brown. The year book also contains other matter of interest respecting the summer schools of art at Shinnecpck Hills, the Catskllls and Belle island, the arrangement of collections In the Bedford Park museum and the plans for the Brooklyn museum on Prospect hill.

Park Commissioner Squic made this statement to day regarding the recent purchase of 173 lots in Canarsie from Michael J. Dady and James F. Cary for and of the property purchased from Mrs. Mary T. Palmer: "This purchaso was completed on Monday last when the deed was recorded.

The price paid was $23,000. The property comprises 173 lots on the shore front at Canarsie running from East Eighty eighth to East Ninety second streets, and from Skldmore avenue to the bulkhead line. When it was decided to locate a park on Canarsie bay we found it difficult to find owners of such land as was wanted. "While looking around for the owners Mr. Flynn, president of the Nassau Electric railroad company, made us a proposition which wo accepted.

This included the property in question. Without going further into details relative to the ownership of the land I will say that Michael J. Dady and James F. Cary took nun iu mis lanu ay aeea uateu June 26, xs'Ji, before a thought was given by the city of locating a park there, and consequently I should say that Insofar as they were concerned the Idea of a speculation for such purpose did not enter into the matter. Several months ago an option to this property was given to the Nassau Railroad company for the purpose of building a power house.

When Mr. FHvnn heard that we were looking around down there he offered to transfer to the park department his option at exactly the same figures at which it was given to him. Not until title was ready to pass did I know who the owners were and it would have made no difference in my actions If I had. There Is a boom in Canarsie property caused by the extension of railroad facilities and several options we had were canceled on that account, and we will probably have to begin condemnation proceedings to complete the purchases there. The desirability of a park at Canarsie was Indorsed by Mr.

Olmsted, and It Is the intention of the department to make it a playground for the vast territory which surrounds it. It is the only piece of open water front that the public can enjoy for a distance of seven miles from the Coney Island concourse to that point. The price paid was not exorbitant, nor will the cost of improvement be so, tor I have had many offers of dumpings that will cost the city very little to handle. It is the scheme, to have the city dumpings taken there and by building trenches All the ground in. I calculate that the ground can be raised four or five feet at very little expense, as the only thing necessary will be to take care of the material alter It is dumped on the ground.

One of the officers of the Nassau rallro'ad'company offered on behalf of that company to erect and lay out a grand stand and base ball ground it allowed. It would make an idea! place for a game of ball on a summer's day. There is a big population In the Twenty sixth ward and adjacent territory The Increase is bound to be large and fast, and the people will want some outlet to the. water's edge, where they, as taxpayers, can be free to go. Nearly all the land we have in view for this park is held by people who have owned it for many years and It has been a difficult matter to find all the owners.

"In regard to the lots taken from Mrs. Mary T. Palmer on Eastern parkway, for Lincoln Terrace park, I will say that I did not know that she owned an inch untU the final map was presented on which the purchases were completed. Far from Mrs. Palmer's taking this land for speculative purposes, I have not the faintest doubt that she owned most of it for at least fifteen years, as did most of the other owners from whom we bought.

We have been dnvesUgatlng the prices of land and not those who owned it. The plot 100 feot on Eastern parkway by about 140 feet In depth, for which we paid. Mrs. Palmer $10,000, represents the same figure we paid for like parcels to others on the same block, and also on the block below. The prices were not exorbitant.

A. great difference in values of land in this section can be found. The land is undulating and some of It Is valuable for building purposes, while other pieces would not be so valuable. Another criticism has been offered on the tran eaction by which the city received at a nominal consideration from Mrs. Palmer a piece Of laud In this block.

When she bought the property many years ago Is was supposed iher deed covered what she Intended to convey to the city, but it was found that a small gore of two feet, running to a point in the center of the block, had not been included. This piece contained In all about ten square fest of land. When title had been perfected Mrs. Palmer conveyed at a nominal consideration, because the law says land cannot be conveyed for nothing. "I want that the Brooklyn Forest park at Richmond Hill is not intended for the rich, as has been stated In many directions.

It is Intended far the poor man, and more especially for the German element in the eastern district, who usa the land now for picnic purposes, and would be driven away from it Jy the march, of improvement's unless the city took it for Just such purposes as it is intended. It Is fifteen minutes nearer to the Seventeenth iward than Prospect park, and during the summer months there are as manv people using this land for picnic purposes as can be found during the same time in Prospect park. Jt Is an Ideal place fOT a picnic, and with the trees and shrubbery growing there, it will make one of the handsomest parks in the country." MARYLANDERS RETURN THANKS.

Renny, Major W. H. Smyth, and three Japanese officials, Cantain Lieutenant Kato, Count Mita and Imperial Japanese Intendant Panaka, Wiard's Plan to Utilize Obsolete Eod man Smooth Boras. ALL ORDNANCE TO BE BEATEN. He Promises to Convert the Old Rod mans Into Sixteen Inch Rifles, Which Will Fire a Ton Projeotile With Hith erto Unequalled Force and Last Longer Than the MotJern Rifles Now in Use.

Washington, D. September 28 If the board of fortifications accepts several propositions made by Norman Wiard, and the latter Is able tocarry out his engagements, the United States will be In possession of by far the largest and most powerful rifled gun In the world, and the means will be at hand for the easy conversion of what Is now obsolete ordnance into the most effective modern rifles. Mr. Wiard made his propositions to the board during the present session and was heard at length In explanation of the detailB of his projects. First he asked that the board make an allotment for the Reading Wiard 12 inch rifle which he has brought almost to the point of completion.

This is an old Rodman smooth bore cast iron gun converted into a rifle, and Mr. Wiard told the board that this weapon would show one third more energy than any other 12 inch rifle, could be fired more rapidly and would show greater endurance than the best of the modern built tip expensive steel guns. Next he offered to take the big 20 inch smooth bore cast iron Rodman gun Just removed as obsolete from the earthworks at Fort Lafayette, N. harbor and convert this into a 20 inch rifle. As the largest rifle in any service Is 16 inch caliber, this would be the greatest rifle ever made.

The 16 inch guns have all failed but Mr. Wiard asserted to the board that this 20 lnch rifle would stand extremely rapid firing, endure at least 100 rounds in ten hours and throw a shell weighing a ton with an energy far surpassing any shot on record. His last proposition is to build an all steel, high power 16 Inch rifle which he guarantees to excel in endurance and performance any service gun of like size in the world, and to possess the remarkable property of becoming stronger with every shot fired from it. This last property Is to be secured by some peculiarity of construction that is not yet fully disclosed. The board has taken these propositions under consideration.

MILLARD CLUB OUTING, THE TENTH WARDERS ENJOY THEMSELVES AT COLLEGE POINT. Fully 800 members and guests of the James J. Millard club, one ef the most popular social or galzatlons in South Brooklyn', attended 4he annual outing at Donnelly's hotel, College Point, yesterday. All the Tenth ward was interested In the affair because the standard bearer is a candidate for alderman in opposition to John J. MoGarry, so that there was a ood deal of political significance attaohed to the outing.

Tho party boarded the. steamer Vlotor at Hamilton ferry shortly after o'cloek and after a pleasnnt sail of two hours up tha sound landed nt College Point where they were met by Boniface Donnelly and a delegation of College Point oitizens. Headed by Nolaa'B band they marchod to the hotel where a sumptuous luncheon awaited them. When this was disposed of games and athletic contests were started. A game of base ball, between teams captained by Diok Butler and Diok O'Connell, attracted a good deal of interest and merriment.

three exciting innings, in which tho decisions of Doctor Curran nnd Bob Oliver, the um plre, were vehemently protested, the game was awarded to O'Connelrs nine by a score of 9 to 0. There was a lively game of foot ball between picked elevens and a boxing bout, in which Tommy Russell of Harlem and Hank Bnrnett of New York were the principals. James Thompson eaptnred first prize in the saok race and Edward McCann in tho 100 yards dash. At 6 o'olcok dinner was served, to which all did justice. Speeches were made by Assemblyman John A.

Hennessy and J. M. Wood. The former ceagratulated the club on the large and active membership and the snecess ef the out inr. The only thing to mar the pleasure of the affair was the absence of the standard bearer, whose recent bereavement prevented his attendance.

He proposed the name of Mr. Millard whoso name was greeted with wild applause. The return trip was started nt 7 o'clock, and at exactly i) o'clock the steamer landed at Hamilton ferry where over one thousand people who were unable to go greeted the returning pilgrims. Coaches were in readiness and a parade through the Sixth and Tenth wards followed. Many houses were beautifully decorated with flogs and bunting.

Fireworks an'd bonfires illuminated the entire Tenth ward. 'L hat bailiwick probably never presented snch a festive look. Thousands of people watched the parade. The club honse on Hoyt street was covered with flags and Chinese lanterns. The houses of J.

J. Mnloney, Assemblyman John A. Hennessy, James Finn, William J. Cur ren, James O'Connell, Michael MeCrrren and many other were tastefully decorated. Among these present were: Alderman James Dunne, Charles Johnson, William Henderson, Judge James G.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Will you kindly spare mo a line In your paper wherein to mention an abuse that I trust may be remedied when brought to the notice of the managers of the trolley on Fulton street? Persons are allowed to crowd In the very narrow space In front of seated passengers on the open cars and to stand there, thus excluding air and bringing passengers In a close contact which Is almost Intolerable.

Can nothing be done to remedy this bad practice? Brooklyn, September 25, 1895. CRUSHED. IK ilgf Mi: II II it 8 If' it mi Kill a pair oi snarp pointed wings on eacn side in harmonizing tones.

JUSTICE TTGHE'S (RAPID WORK. HE SAYS HE CANNOT INQUIRE MINUTELY INTO PETTY OASES. Justice Tighe has occupied the bench of the Adams street police court during the absence of Justice Walsh at the Democratic convention, and the way in which he rushes through the business before him has caused considerable comoient among the frequenters in the coucft; In many Instances the officers making the charge are and prisoners have been sentenced before they have been given an opportunity to plead. Yesterday three Norwegian sailor lads, who evidently did not understand the charge against them, were sent to jail for five days each on a charge of intoxication. When Justice Tighe was questioned about it he said: are cases ot summary conviction.

It Is not necessary that persons arrested for Intoxication, violation of city ordinances and offenses of a like character should be tiotifled in order that they may procure counsel. It is evident to anybody who attends the Butler street court that if I were to stop and Inquire into the family history of all the prisoners brought before me I would be swamped under one thousand cases In a very few days. It Is necessary to move briskly. There is no requirement under the law that a man wbo Is charged with intoxication shall be tried by a Jury, as in a court of sessions. Now, as to the three Swedish prisoners In the Adams street court, the officer who made the arrest said they were in a state of helpless Intoxication.

The sentence of five days each 'was a little more than the minimum; which is three days, and less than the maximum, ten days. Well I suppose they are not accustomed to moving business as fast as 1t goes in my own court." AMERICAN SETTLERS DI8SATI8FIED.

Complaints will be made to the Btato dspartmont und the matter will bo laid before tho Brltlso government If the stories of Americnn sea oaptains which have cruised in tho Arctic regions since the Paris awnrd in Behrlng sea matters may be believed, the British fur sealors are systematically violating overy condition of the treaty, carrying plenty of arms to do as they please and laughing at threats or oomplainta from America. It is claimed that the British vessels nre all cruising boldly without regard to the treaty because theri are no American cruisers to watch them and protect American rights under the treaty.

On the other hand, it Is said that by reason of advantage of position and superiority on the sens. Groat Britali is carefully guarding our vessels and that every violation of the law, however technical, is promptly reported and summarily dealt with. CONSUL DE KAl'S DENIAL. HE DID NOT COMMENT UPON THE STERN CASE. Berlin, Septembor 2G Mr.

Charles De Kay. the United Statos consul general at Berlin, states that a pretended interview with him' which was published in newspapers ot the United Stutes last month, iu which he was made to say that he had made a report to the state department at Washington upon the case ot Mr. Louis Stern of New i'ork, who in July last was sentenced to imprisonment and fine far insulting Baron Thuengen, assistant to the royal commissioner of baths and associate judge In Kissengen, was puro fabrication. Mr. De Kay said to day that he had never written to ttio state department sayine that ho would have acted a Mr.

Stern did under Blmilar circumstances, and that, moreover, he had never made any such stnteinent to anybody, as to have done so would been an act ot gross discourtesy to hi colleagues, the United States consul general at Frankffrt, to whose division the whole of Bavaria belongs. For similar rensoias, Mr. De Kay added, it was out of the question be should have made amy report upoa the case to Washington. CARRIAGE LIGHTS ADVOCATED. A SENSIBLE SUGGESTION TO THOSE WHO DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: I have been a reader of your paper a ereat many years and have been Interested In tne dis cussions, pro and con, of questions of general In. teres! to the public, and I think a very Important public service Is often rendered by trius opening: your columns. 'As the Eagle circulates among the better cluss, I would like to suggest tho advisa bility and almost absolute necessity of the thousand pleasure drivers who drive througrh the park and down the boulevard, providing their vehicles with lights, which would undoubtedly prevent the majority of accidents, of fwhlch there are altogether too many. The New York authorities have passed an or dlnirnce to that effect, wfcloh has been in vogue some months, during which time I have not lieard ot a single accident In tne park or on the road. I dare say lives have been saved as well as erpenalve damages.

Why can we not have thrs kwr In Brooklyn as well? I think if the attention of the drivers ot this city is called tb the matter, tihey. as an intelligent class, would see the advisability of providing themselves with dasTi lamps of some kind. I am a lovtr of horses. I both ride and drive, but I alway carry a light on my carriage, which I have no doubt has saved me both dollars and bruises. The expense Is trifling and results are very gratifying.
