The Prosecuting Officer Fears He Will Escape if He Gets Out on a $2,000 Bond. Supreme Court Justice Mnroan, this morning, decided that he would not admit John Smith, held for tha Grand Jury yesterday by Magistrate Naumcr, to ball, as District Attorney Clarke convinced him that Smith has also been known lo tho police as "Eddie Malone," "Eddlo Connors" and Charles Williams, and, though they are not cure what his real name is, the police are certain that he has spent half of his life In prisons.

In addition to this, Mr. Clarke snys that tho Grand Jury has already taken up his case and will probably Indict lilm for burglary In the first degree as a second offense and assault In. the first degree. Should Smith be convicted with such indictments against him, bo may be sent to Sing Sing for life. So, argues Mr.

Clarke, such a sum as $3,000, the amount fled by Maglstrato Naumcr as bail, would be little enough to escape such a fate. Lawyer Wltte appeared for Smith before Justice Marean this morning. He was ready to furnish ball for bis client, he said, the amount having been placed at (2,000 by Magistrate Naumcr, but, when he went to Clarke about It, the latter refused to entertain thoughts of ball, unless' some judge of the Supreme Court passed upon it. Then he went immediately to special term to see about It. Mr.

Clarke also to the special term to oppose, and when Lawyer Wltte Informed Justice Marean what ho wanted the District Attorney, put in a word or two against it. "This is a case," he said, "where your honor ought to refuse ball. This man Smith, we happen to know, has spent half of his life in jail. On March 27, 1877, under the name of Eddie. Malone, he was sent to Sing Sing for two years for burglary.

On January 29, 1897.,, he was sent to Sing Sing for three years under the same name. On March 3, 1892, as Eddie Connors, the General Sessions in New York sent him to Sing Sing for ten years for robbery. We also know that as Charles Williams he was given a term of five years and a fine of $1,000 on June 22, 1899, in the United States District Court of Baltimore, for post office "This man wos arrested recently in Brooklyn and he is now charged before the Grand Jury with burglary In the first degree and assault, and it Is our purpose to Indict him for burglary as a second offense. For a conviction upon such an indictment he will go to prison for life. He Is a bad man and I hold that your honor will hesitate fix ball in his case for If he Is liberated on ball be will escape." "That Is not 6o," returned Mr.

Wltte. "Such a thought never entered his head. I think your honor will agree with me that the police sometimes are mistaken in their Identifications. This man Is assumed to be innocent until he is convicted and he Is entitled to be admitted to ball. Tho magistrate fixed, bail at $2,000 and we are ready to give it." Justice Marean first refused to fix any ball, but later adjourned the matter until to-morrow, As the grand jury reports indictments Friday morning It Is quite probable th.

Indictment against Smith will be In the hands of Judge Asplnall on that day. The complaining witness against Smith is Charles Bossong, of 174 Seventh avenue On the night of June 10, Bossong was awakened from sleep by a noise in his butcher shop below bis apartments. He investigated and saw a man running away. He pursued and the man stopped and fired twice at him with a revolver. Toby Peterson, a special officer, joined In the chase and captured Smith, who was afterward identified by Bossong.

An examination of the store showed that a hole had been drilled In the. safe and It had been opened by blast of powder. The sum of $85 had been stolen from the safe. When caught Smith had a. revolver In bis pocket.

INEQUALITIES TAXATION. Coler Seeks Information From Metz. Seems as Though Assesors Favored Soma Property Owners. The subjoined communication1 from Borough President Coler was sent to Controller Metz to-day. There is a strong suspicion In Mr.

Coler's mind that the property referred to as being assessed at a low figure la held for a well known politician in Brooklyn, who has attained to greater prominence than any other Democratic district leader. The matter was referred to Mr. Metz, because under an act passed by -the last Legislature, the Controller was authorized to erect a bureau In the Finance Department for the Investigation of all charges made against public departments. The letter to the Controller Is as follows: "A petition having been received in this office for the Improvement of Harway avenue, a very important thoroughfare of Orftvesend Bay and leading directly to Coney Island. I asked for a report from the Chief Engineer of the Bureau of Highways as to the estimated cost of the improvement and the assessed valuation of the property within the probable area of assessment.

In order that I might submit thle. Information with the petition to the local board and the Board of Estimate and Apportionment. 1 forward to you herewith a copy nf the report prepared bv the Chief Engineer, in which It Is indicated that the estimated cost of the Improvement Is and the assessed valuation of the land. S8.40O. As the charter will not permit of The Imposition of an assessment In excess of one-half of the assessed vnl cation of the property, it appears that the improvement to which I refer cannot properly be authorized at this time by the local board and the Board of Estimate.

"Tk. nn-t nt I 'hte A to the assessed valuation of the property somewhat surprised me. end I had the Highways Hurenp furnish me with a map showing the various plots they atpfar on the map of the Board Assessors, with the assessed valuation of each pint and the name of the owner, as given on said map. indicated. I send you this map and a statement of the aeseseed valuation of eeveral plots In the sectlnn adjoining Harway avenue.

I think a study of jls map will Indicate to yon that the assessed valuations placed on these pieces of property are. to say the leat. remarkable. A very considerable area, which appears to be owned bv Edward Egolf. et al.

Is assessed at a figure which seems amazingly low when comparea wnn inr n-sess-d valuation of the properties of Ptlllwell. Voorheee Mary E. Btlllwell and others. Vou n.lll nr.t fnr li-atftn-e a ntece of property owned bv Marv E. Stlllwell oo the westerly aide of Harway avenue, adjoining Bay Fnrty-elghth street and having an nrea of fil.5 square feet, Is assessed at 17.0fVl.

while a Piece of property owned bv Edward Egolf. et fll. on the same side of Harway avenue, and a.Moln-Ing B- Forty-ninth street, having an area of 273 1)20 suunre feet, is assessed at only e. .00. On till easterly sine of the avenue the die-ereuanelet are equally remnrkanle.

A piece of property with an aree. of sonare feet, owned bv Man- E. Stlllwell. pays taxes on an assessment while a piece of property having an area of 12S.7.U square feet of upland, owned by Edward Egolf et al. pays taxes on an assessed valuation of 2.S0O.0O.

"I think the assessments to whlh I have referred are untuet to the city, and as they Interfere with the Improvement of Harway avenue which I consider very desirable. I would suggest that vou have this matter taken up by your Bureau of Investigation." CLARKE WILL TEST THE LAW. District Attorney Clarke announced this morning that a test case would be brought to ascertain Just what a violation of the Sundav laws is in connection with baseball playing on that day. Magistrate Naumer yesterday discharged the baseball players who were arrested by Tollce Captain Baldwin on Sunday, but it Is the Intention of Mr. Clarke to lay Informations against them in the Court of Special Sestions.

In this way the legality of Sunday ball playing can, be tested. IS THE ST Daggers, Rifles, Sandbags and a Large Quantity of Silverware Found. KINNAN MYSTERY DEEPENS, Bronx Police Hope to Get Clew to the Murderer Through Their New Discoveries. Another story throwing light-upon the peculiar character of Mrs. Louise M.

Stetiton, the aged but vigorous and iron-willed mistress of Shauyside, the old colonial house at 246S Washington avenue, the Bronx, with its secret chambers and closets and strange collection of valuables and weapons, where her daughter, Mrs. Alice Kuinan, was murdered on June 8. came to light to-day. It showed that she could handle, upon occasion, any of the daggers, rllles or sand bags whose presence there are puzzling the police. Upon the occasion described ltwas an axe she wielded.

Patrolman Dubois, tjf the Tremont station, who was on duty last night at tho home of Mrs. A. E. Miller, in Briggs avenue, the friend with whom Mrs. Sten-ton Is now staying, under surveillance by the police, tells the story.

Dubois says that about a year and a half ago, when he had the beat taking In the Stenton house, he was called there late at night by neighbors who said that Mrs. Stenton was killing some one. He hurried there and found the old woman on her piazza, brandishing an axe. He found that she was threatening a tenant of her house, who was terrorized by her, aud had fled to the grounds. Dubois sought out this tenant and found him1 shivering with fear.

He said she had threatened his life, but Mrs. Stenton denied this and said the tenant had threatened her life. The tenant insisted that Mrs. Stenton threatened him with the axe, and said) she did so because she wanted to eject him from her house. There was an Italian, he said, whom Mrs.

Stenton wanted as a tenant, because be would pay higher rent. The threatened tenant said Mrs. Stenton wanted; to put him out before his term, for which he had paid, was up, and when he refused to go, she took the axe to him. The situation was so threatening, Dubois said, that he stayed at the house that night to guard the tenant, who refused to go, but was afraid to be alone with the old woman. Mrs.

Stenton was not arrested. A policeman was kept at the bouse for three days afterward, Dubois said, to guard the tenant, until he was ready to move. To spite the old woman he stayed there until Mrs. Stenton had to get a dispossess notice for him. Sergeant Price, acting captain of the Bronx Detective Bureau, said this morning that he probably wouldn't have any more theories to give out to-day, as he was sufficiently occupied over the strange developments of yesterday afternoon and last night.

He was going to spend most of the day, he said. In cogitating over the possibilities raised in his mind over the contents of the old house, and the mysterious light it throws upon Mrs. Stenton and her past life. Clerk Welch of tho Bronx Coroners' office, made up a list of the contents of the silver chest tound In the secret room In the Stenton house late yesterday. It is as follows: Four silver covers, with handles; one soup tureen, with cover and- handle; four Bllver dishes, two silver trgyB, a sliver cake dish, a silver teapot, with stand and lamp; three silver soup ladles, marked Mrs.

The order abolishing the three-platoon system and directing that the old two-platoon system should go into operation to-morrow issued yesterday by Commis- patrolmen of the city were not counting upon when the sun was shining and the roses were in bloom, and when those members of the force who have bought little houses, with grass plots about, were spending their spare moments with the lawnmowcr.

It was a shocking, disagreeable Jar, and the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association will see about It. The policemen are not to blame for feeling sore at the loss of the eight-hour day and the abolition of their nights at home, for the family sentiment Is truly human and proper, as everybody will admit. But the necessity for more men on the streets at night was plain, and the people' who have the care of citizens In hand knew that they could not get the proper pollco service under the three-platoon system. The sentiment of the Commissioner was voiced this morning by one of bis closest aides, when this official Bald; "We arc here to See that police duty Is done. Under the three-platoon system, it was not done as it should have been.

There were few men out on the streets at night, when the strength of the force should have been on duty. It would have been policy to. maintain the three-platoon system, but there were not enough men, and the Board of Estimate would not make provision for more. The Commissioner is not in office to follow out the dictates of any police association; his duty is to do the best for the people. And he has found out that the pebple were not well served by the men, for more of the force was needed at night.

The policeman Is appointed to protect the man who Is in bed and asleep. If he does not do this, the policeman Is not fulfilling bis mission. The people pay for service at night, protection from fire, robbery and personal injury of all kinds. When they are awake they do not need It. If the police were to try to prevent gambling, for instance, they would have to get a plain clothes officer to follow every man who had sporting proclivities, for be will gamble somewhere.

And in the daytime men and women are able, pretty well, to look out for themselves. Under the three-platoon system there was1 no adequate protection for the people. It failed in the fact that it didn't give the service the public paid for. So it was thought better, even with the storm of protest from the policemen that was expected, to substitute the old system, the best for the public that has yet been devised." O'Keeffe and Cross Silent Deputy Police Commissioner O'Keeffe and Borough Inspector Cross declined to talk about the matter, believing, appar cntly, that it was politic to have nothing to say. But the deputy commissioner presented the reporter of the Eagle with figures showing that there would, under the two plutoon system, be a gain of Just 329 men every night In the patrol service in Erooklyn and Queens by the return to the old style of patrol.

This was not new to (he Eagle, wnlch, during the administration of Commissioner McAdoo, prepared a table showing that Brooklyn was losing by the three platoon syBtem Just 300 men's services every night. The table was based on the figures of the last day of the old two platoon system's operation and the current date of tho three platoon system's work. This table was correct, as shown by Mr. O'Keeffe's figuring this morning, for the twenty-nine gain will bo in the Queens district. And It was clear that an Increase at night of 300 men means a regiment added to the service.

At the time tho Eagle printed the schedule a reporter was sent to see Mr. McAdoo and ask his opiiilon about it. But Mr. McAdoo was non-com-mital. He said that election was too near and he didn't want to discuss the merits of the throe platoon system.

Then Mayor McClellnn was re-elected and Mr. McAdoo was rolloved of tho duty to give place to General Bingham, the niun who has had the nerve to do away wits the three platoon system because he did not believe it was good for the people. Mr. McAdoo, In a book that was recently published, told a l. mnrlr even then HOR- HALlinHil tn enter Into merits i of the three platoon arrangement.

Commissioner Bingham Issued an order yesterday afternoon re-establishing the two platoon system and with it he gave tho reporters this statement of his reasons for doing away with the three platoons: "Because of the failure of the Board of Aldermen to grant increase of the forco r.sked for, and the pressing necessity for more nien; and owing to the numerous aud recent calls for the various summer resorts, which strain the resources of the department, It has been deemed necessary, in order to accomplish the work demanded of the department, to return to the two platoon system. This system offers these advantages: (1). It increases the number of men on duty at night by 50 pr cent. "0, It increases the number of men on reserve at night from one-ninth to one-half during the first tour, and from one-ninth to one-fourth during the secoud tour. "(3).

During the nlsht one-half of the entire force is on patrol and the other halt is on reserve from 6 P.M. to 12 mid night. "(I). It enables the department to make the patrol posts strairht. "(5).

There was much grumbling among the men to-day. and in the opinion of those who understand such things they are not to blame for feeling soro at General Bingham.

And then $1,400 a year for the work of a policeman is pretty good pay, and men with families are not throwln- that up in a hurry. It Is to a certain degree unskilled labor, and It Is the best paid unskilled labor in the world.

There was considerable amusement In the Queens County Surrogate's office yesterday when Surrogate Daniel Noble called from the calendar the will case of Jane A.

Dam. No one responded and the Surrogate repeated In a slightly raised voice, "The matter of the Dam will case." Still no answer, and in a few moments the clerks of the court were going through the court room inquiring, "Are you a witness in the Dam will case?" or "Are you a Dam witness?" Many of the women In court were highly Indignant when approached In this way, and It was not until It was publicly announced that those Interested In the will case of Jane A. Dam were wanted in tha court room that they were pacified. It was a by-w'ord for the day to ask if parties coming into the courtroom were "Dam witnesses" or "witnesses in that Dam case."
