Maintaining the morose and Indifferent attitude which has accentuated his demeanor ever since bis incarceration In the jail which has been his home since the day of the tragedy, August 15 of last year, he bade his former keepers goodby. But when he stepped out of the dark red brick walls Into the spring sunshine, his entire attitude changed.

Among those present were MiSB Helen Miller Gould, the donor of the original building, which was opened seven years ago this mdfith; Colonel J.

J. Slocum, brother of Mrs. Sage, and his son, H. J. Slocum of the Seventh United States Cavalry; Loyall Farragut, son of the famous admlra.1 of the Civil War; Colonel John J.

McCook of the well known "Fighting McCook" family; Rear Admiral S. Cowles, chief of the Bureau of Equipment, V. S. and brother-in-law of ex-President Roosevelt, and Rear Admiral Seatou Schroeder, commander In chief of the Atlantic fleet. William Sloane, chairman of the Army and Navy Department of the International Committee, acted as master of ceremonies.

He was introduced to 'the audience by Daniel W. McWilliams of the committee of management of Ihe local branch. A short service of praise anil prayer preceded the addressee of the occasion. Chaplain W. G.

Isaaca of the Cob Dock pronounced the invocation and read the Scripture lesson, and the Rev John F. Carson of the Central Presbyterian Church delivered the dedicatory prayer. After the singing of a hymn, Mr. Sloane read a number of letters from those who could not be present. The first was from Miss Catharine Hunter, secretary for Mrs.

Sage, in which Bhe wrote that the aged benefactress could not be present because of an injury to one of her arms, from which she is suffering. She said that Mrs. Sage had sent her brother and nephew to represent her. She also expressed the slncerest regards for the men of the navy. President William H.

Before leaving the jail he shook handB with Warden Charles S. Van Sise, Keeper James O'Brien. Keeper Conrad Garbe, Un 301 aoi It was learned from authentic sources to-day that there Is little chance of the proposed Seaside National Bank being established at Coney Island, The stock of the institution haB been subscribed for and ltg organization approved by the controller of the currency at Washington, but the promoters have learned that the business interests of the Island would not support It, and they have abandoned it. The prime mover in the proposed bank was Harold A. Davidson, who was formerly secretary of the Home Trust Company, and who left that position to take the presidency of the Jenkins Trust when it resumed business after its failure.

It was said by some of the Coney Islanders this morning that no one who had been connected with either the Jenkins or 'he Lafayette Trust companies could ever hope to make a success of any institution In that section. It is probably for this reason that the subscriptions for the stock of the proposed baank will not be called for. Mr. Davidson said this morning that he had nothing to say in regard to the matter, except that events were taking their own course. It Ib very evident, however, from the remarks of the business men of the Island that a bank Is needed.

The building ot the branch of the Lafayette Trust on Surf avenue, and which was formerly the main office of the Coney island and Bath Beach Bank, has been sold to S. E. Jackman, one of the prominent men of the Island. Title will probably pass to-day. Mr.

Jackman said to an Eagle reporter that it was the intention of the business men of the island to establish banking facilities. It was stated by another man that the business men of Coney Island desired to have one of the larger local banks establish a branch rather than for them to or der Sheriff John Phillips and other at taches. He had no comment to return to their well meant expressions of sympathy which the association haB performed has been In the Interest, of business men in every calling.

May 18-Stanley Handly, the 11-year-old eon of Adama Handly, -i Pole, residing on Henry street, this village, has been missing since Sunday afternoon, when he started from home, near Bennington Park, for Sunday school. A search yesterday by the police officers and school authorities, as well as boys of the high school, failed to reveal any traces of the lad. The boy's parents moved here about three months ago from Patchogue, and It Is thought he may have walked to the Merrick roaC and started for that place or Islip. A brother of the boy's father resides In the former village and a sister in the latter place. The parents are distracted over his disappearance, but have hopes that he will he found soon, as they have an idea he may have started to walk east and, becoming tired at nightfall, has gone to some house for shelter, or that he may have asked for a ride on the way and reached either Islip or Patchogue.

In some nejisure Its autocracy has been curbed. The arrogance and the ignorance of lis leaders are not displayed quite so freely or so offensively as Ihey were before tho law reached out for these leaders. "In one or two of the recent suits for law breaking which were brought against the federation, some of its chiefs declared that its lawless practices were necessary for that, tirganlzat ion's existence. This Is a dangerous admission to make. It is one of those excuses which accuse.

"Fair minded, public spirited people will say that an organization which, by the acknowledgement of its own leaders, cannot live unless it gets a license to break the laws, deserves to die. This Bit-nation Impresses itself upon the minds of that organization's spokesmen. Henre they are likely to make a desperate attempt next winter to get legislation which will lift the ban from them.

They believe that the federation Is fighting for Its life, and perhaps they are right. AI-I though they will follow their evil practices as long and as far as they dare, ihey have recently discovered hy a humiliating experience that bounds have been set to their law breaking activities beyond which they can go only at their peril. "For these reasons the federation attempted, as in the Penrre bill, to abolish thp Injunction, and it tried, as in Us proposed amendment to the Sherman anti-trust law. to legalize picketing ami boycotting. And the attempt will be renewed.

The inherent and obvious vicious-ness of these practices cannot be hidden by any mask of legality which any legislative body could throw over them. But it is our business to aid In preventing any such prostitution of law. We did this before and we must do It again. "The session which begins next December will seem to the labor union chiefs to be favorable for thpir conspiracy. The spssion will last until the summer of 1910.

Mr. Sloane, in speaking of the dedication of the new portion of the building, remarked that it had a more I linn local significance, for It was probably the greatest step that has yet bepn taken in the development of the array and navy branch of the work.

He said that the local building, as it now stands on Sands street, represents a greater investment than any other association building In the world with the exception of the oile on Twenty-third street, Manhattan. "The purpose of this movement," said Mr. Sloane, "is to provide comfortable quarters for the enlisted men of the navy on shore and' to aid In their physical, moral, mental and spiritual development. Our association buildings are designed to be at once a home, a club, a library, a school, a gymnasium and a religious gathering place for the men of the navy on shore liberty." Robert W. deForest, who is the administrator of the Sage Foundation, was Introduced as the official representative of Mrs.

Sage, the donor. He said that Mrs. Sage did not desire the building to be considered as a memorial either of her or of her husband: but that It belonged to the men of the navy and that they should use It to Its utmost capacity. "Mrs. Sage wants you to be kings In this building." concluded Mr.

deForest. Admiral Cowles spoke on behalf of the Secretary of the Navy. Mrs. J. E.

Lieutenant George Cullum of Inspector Sweeny's staff had a lively time last evening trying to Induce James Bradley of Lott's lane to accompany him to the Flatbush station.

Bradley roughed It with the lieutenant, end the scrimmage made things lively for several minutes. Cullum finally sent around to his house for his night stick, which acted as a "persuader." that a Mrs. Zehler, wife of The South Brooklyn Railway Company has Sled with the Public Service Commission a petition for leave to discontinue its station at the intersection of Lotts lane and Gravesend avenue, In the Borough of Brooklyn, known as the Kensington station. In the petition, the company says this station is now maintained as a stop for the trains of the company, excepting from May 15 to September 1 of each year, during which period It is discontinued under consent given by the old State Board of Railroad Commissioners. The petition says that the company maintains a station and waiting-room at Sixteenth and Gravesend avenues, about 530 feet north of the Kensington station, and that the maintenance of the two stations in such close proximity causes unnecessary congestion of traffic and unreasonable delays in train movement, and also adds to the danger of train operation.

It is impracticable to discontinue the Sixteenth avenue station, the petition points out, for it is located at the junction between the railroad and Gravesend avenue and the railroad In Sixteenth avenue, where passengers are transferred, and, therefore, accommodates a greater portibn of the traveling public than does the Kensington station. The petition declares: 'The maintenance of said Kensington station imposes an unnecessary burden and expense upon the petitioner without conferring a corresponding benefit upon either it or the traveling public, and the discontinuance thereof will, for the reasons already stated, among-others, sub-Berve the best interests of both the petitioner and said traveling public, without depriving the people of that immediate locality of such reasonable and adequate station and transportation facilities as they are entitled to and which the petitioner is under duty to provide."

They alighted at Lexington avenue and went directly to the Lexington aveflue section of the station, where they expected to board a train leaving, as they thought, at 9:5. Instead, the leaving time of the train was 9:44 and It had pulled out promptly on time. There was nothing for Deputy Warden Guilfoyl 'and his prisoner to do but wait until the next train, scheduled to leave at 10:45. The station master permitted the party to go at once to the smoking car of the train, although the gates were not opened to the other passengers until nearly half an hour later. Immediately Halns and his escort had passed through the gates were closed and locked.

Even the newspaper men were kept out until the regular time for opening the gates arrived. Halns was dressed in an old gray suit and a gray sweater, black derby hat and tan shoes. It was said that the suit was the one he wore on the day he shot Annis He seemed to be In a cheerful mood and smiled as he replied to a newspaper photographer who asked him to pose for a picture: "No. thank you; I have had all of that I want for a while."

A neighbor of Mrs. Zehler, named James Wayley, spoke to her and at the same time Wayley claims that Bradley made en offensive remark about Mrs. Zehler. Wayley made a kick at Bradley, missed him and then started to run, pursued by Bradley.

The chase brought both back to the platform, and when things were growing Interesting, Cullum took a hand. According to Cullum, Bradley attempted to strike Mrs. Zehler, and when Cullum interfered, Bradley asked him what right he had to "butt in." Cullum showed his shield, whereupon Bradley struck the officer a stinging blow that knocked him down. During the subsequent snuffle, Cullum spied a friend in the crowd named James Martin, and dispatched him for the big tick that brought Bradley to terms.
