The Board of Visitors to the Naval Academy has recommended the erection of A concrete stadium for the accommodation of the crowds that visit Annapolis for athletic contests. This will be great improvement in conditions, and a thing that the navy folks themselves could not well undertake, because of the expense under which normally they are for athletics.

WALDO INVESTIGATES PETITION FOR CROKER Said to Have Emanated From Man in Fire Chief's Office. SIGNERS MAY FACE TRIAL. Move to Save Head of Fire Department a Violation of Rules, and Will Be Punished, While the board of officers was Antshing its inquiry to-day into the Washington street fire, which caused the A death of two firemen, Fire Commissioner Waldo was Investigating, the petition which has been through the department asking Mayor Gaynor to retain Chief Croker in his present position. Croker denied to the commissioner that he had any knowledge of the petition, but It seems that the petition was started by a high ranking officer who is detailed to Croker's offico at fire headquarters. Many of firemen and officers in Brooklyn already been approached hithe by emissaries from Manhattan with requests that they sign their names to the petition.

In the majority of cases the men and officers refused. A few did sign lead to punishment later on. because they, feared that refusal might It is understood that Commissioner Waldo will prefer charges and place on trial every officer in the department who hag been responsible for the circulation of the petition. It is a violation of the rules of the department and the petition itself is regarded as a direct affront to the Mayor. The Mavor will review the reports and findings on the Washington street fire, and his decision in the case as it affects Chief Croker and all the other officers involved, will be strictly based upon the sworn testimony.

To try to attempt to influence the decision of the Mayor with a petition is regarded as extremely discourteous. and it will probably hurt, rather than help, Croker's case. The board of inquiry heard the testimony of several newspapermen this morning. Chief Croker denied all the published interviews on the Washington street fire and in fact denied that he had talked to the newspapermen in regard to the fatal fire. The board will finish its work this afternoon and a majority report and findings will be submitted to Commissioner Waldo either Saturday or Monday morning.

Chief Croker will file a minority report. Both majority and minority reports will be turned over to the Mayor for a judicial review. It was learned to-day that if Chief Croker really did criticise the physical condition of the men who have become members of the Fire Department in recent years he apparently forgot his own physical condition when he entered the department. Hie was pounds underweight and was rejected the Arst time he took the physical examination. Twenty days afterward he was re-examined, and this passed by the doctors.

THIRTY-SIX GOLFERS TEE OFF AT FOREST PARK Representative Field of Local Players Competing for Long Island Championship. EAGLE TROPHY CHIEF PRIZE. Course Dried Out as Result of Hot Spell and Scores Are Consequently High, Local golfers were up this morning and on the way to links at Forest Park for the Long Island championship and midsummer turnament of the Brooklyn Forest Park Golf Club long before the arteries of the city had drained off their early business rush. This is the first event of its kind ever attempted. The Brooklyn Daily Eagle Trophy is the chief prize.

The tournament committee of the local club, under whose auspices the meeting is being held, felt that the presence of a few of the star golfers of Long Island would have in no way spoiled the interest in the meeting, but they were nevertheless convinced that the affair be unqualified success. An early start had been scheduled for the qualifying round to-day. When the first pair teed up this morning shortly after 9 o'clock, the members of the tournament committee were all on deck. receiving the contestants and sending them away on their round. C.

T. Sweeny ofAciated on the first tee, as starter, the players driving off in bright the accompaniment of the flapping of "Old Glory" overhead. Park Superintendent Groves had the greens as nearly perfect as conditions would allow. Reports were to the effect that the course on the southern slope was baked and dried out on account of the continued hot spell. High scoring was accordingly forecasted.

The record of Park course is 70, held by Devereux Lord, Brooklyn Forest Park champion. This flgure, however. is likely to remain intact during this tournament. Unfortunately, Lord has been out of the game this season for business reasons, but the Forest Park- I ers have been fortunate in having their former champion. George G.

Baxter, return to the fold. Baxter is one of the favorites for the honors. Other good players who started out were A. L. Broe, Columbia; Donald Carr, New York Golf Club; Dr.

G. T. Smith, H. P. Donnelly, C.

T. Sweeney, J. B. Catlin of the local club, and J. B.

Eddleman, Fox Hills. In all thirty-six players responded to the starter, "Mr. Unattached" being quite a personage in the field. The prizes form a fitting testimonial to the zeal of the tournament committee in its endeavor to make the meeting a success. The awards made a dazzling display in the window of the club house on Myrtle avenue, the Eagle trophy, the prize for the winner of the tournament, being shown to advantage.

The early returns had nothing but tales of hard luck and fiery greens to explain them away. Donald Carr, the New York entrant, told of how he took three putts on every green but one. His core was 87. J. B.

Cattlin, Forest Park, who played with Carr, got under this score by four strokes, a good home half of 39 helping materially. Previous to this A. B. Maillefort, also of the local club, had returned an 80, and the wise ones at the score board and those who had been over the course declared the player who beat this would have to "play some." George Baxter, after getting to the turn in 42, had a wretched experience on the homeward journey. A 6 at the tenth was soon overcome by good play, and when he holed out on the fifteenth for 2.

things looked promising. Baxter got into the woods at the next. however, and took five to get out. The hole eventually cost him 13 and he finished at 88. H.

J. Donnelly, who partnered Baxter, took 46 outgoing, but finished up at 84 as a sult of a nice 38 coming back. Charles T.

The Socialist Labor party attempted to hold an open air mass meeting in Greenpoint last night, and for the third time their plans were unsuccessful and the police broke up the meeting. A large crowd gathered at the corner of Noble and Franklin streets, where the speeches were to be given, and there was great excitement when John Behringer, 44 years old, of 753 East Thirty-eighth street, Manhattan, mounted a chair, which served as a platform, and gave a stirring speech. He denounced the police.

The second speaker was Max Fruchter, 29 years old, of 265 Franklin street, and he also spoke against the police in scathing language and criticised their action at the two previous meetings which the Socialists had atempted to hold in that section. of the Greenpoint sta- Captain Coleman tion was in the audience with a number of policemen and when Fruchter began Lo talk in this way they broke through the crowd and the captain asked him to show his perm.it to hold the meeting.

There was a short circuit of a train in the Interborough Rapid Transit tunnel under the East River, near the Brooklyn side, about 10 o'clock to-day, that held up two trains that were in the tunnel at the time for forty minutes.

There were no persons injured and there was no excitement among the passengers of either train. In talking about the block Manager Hadley explained it as follows: "An eight car train, in charge of Conductor Seuer and Motorman Morton, was passing under the East River to Brooklyn, when near the shaft on the Brooklyn side a short circuit occurred between the trolley rail and the trolley shoe beam, which automatically cut off the power on that track to the third rail. "This cut off the lights in the cars, but not the lights along the side of the tunnel. At no time were those tunnel lights out. The short circuit made it necessary to chop off the trolley leads on the car that had the short circuit and break off the contact shoes.

This, however, was somewhat relieved by operating trains to Brooklyn on the opposite THE COURTS. COUNTY COURT. KINGS COUNTY.
