BOROUGH AND LONG ISLAND ACTION ON SECESSION DEFERRED FOR A TIME But Rockaway Beach Taxpayers Association May Favor It Later. SENTIMENT IS FOR IT NOW. People of Beach Feel They Were Better Off Prior to Consolidation Than Since. While the Rockaway Beach Taxpayers Association took up the matter of secession of the Rockaways from the Greater New York at a meeting held in er's Hall last night, final action on the proposition was deferred until the next meeting, which will be held the second Monday in December, From sentiments expressed by the various members, it seems probable that the association may favor the movement, fall in line with the Arverne and Far Rockaway people, and work toward that end. The matter was properly brought before the by its representatives to the Allied Civic Associations of the Rockaway, and discussion followed.

It was the general consensus of opinion that the Fifth Ward, which comprises the Rockaways, had received very little in return for the big amount of taxes paid into the city treasury each year since consolidation. It was argued that whatever improvements the various sectiong of the ward now enjoy, they had provided for themselves under separate village government prior to consolidation, and while the taxes are high now, the improvements previously made, such as roadways and sewers, are so neglected that they are practically useless and going to ruin fast. Street lights and paid police forces were enjoyed before the advent of the Greater New York. while the fire departments were volunteers, but fully as competent to handle a fire as the small force of paid firemen maintained in the Rockaways of late. At last night's meeting many property owners got up and unhesitatingly declared that anything would be better than the present conditions and those that have existed since the section became part of the greater city.

Opinions were freely expressed, but it was deemed best to defer final action until the next meeting, when an effort will be made to get out a large attendance. Moses Felio, who conducts a hotel at Rockaway Park, said he was heartily in sympathy with the movement, even though the Rockaway Park Taxpayers Association had made short work of the question last week and refused to entertain it. He said he was paying more taxes since being in the Greater New York than he ever did before, and was receiving nothing in return, the Rockaway Park section being still controlled by the Rockaway Park Improvement Company, which has thus far refused to turn its streets over to the city. The city will not clean, spfinkle of repair the streets. Mr.

Felio said the only thing he was getting for the big amount of taxes paid to the city is police and fire protection, both of which he had when Rockaway Park was outside the city. M. P. Holland, one of the pioneers of the Beach and manager of the vast Holland estate, declared himself in favor of the secession movement. He said he saw absolutely nothing that the people of the Rockaways were getting from the city, and that anything for a change would not make worse conditions than have existed under the city government.

E. F. Cojean, who is a large property owner in the Hammel section of Rockaway Beach, said he knew no reason why Fifth Ward should not get together the and withdraw from the city. Taxes are high and the few improvements that the erstwhile villages had enjoyed to prior Greater New York, have been permitted to go to decay through the negligence of the city authorities. A community, paying taxes into its own treasury and.

governing itself by its own residents, he thought, would be the salvation of the Rockaways. There were others who expressed their opinions, and when final action is taken it: will probably be in favor of withdrawal from the Several minor were discussed and the meeting adjourned. Where Belle Harbor Stands. John C. Judge.

one of the prominent residents of Belle Harbor, and secretary of the Property Owners Association at that place, when asked concerning the attitude of Belle Harbor on the question of taking the peninsula out of the city, said: "I was present at the meeting of the allied associations when this matter was first brought up by the residents of Arverne and Far Rockaway. When my opinion was asked, I stated that my individual opinion was of no value; I would have to report to its members and get their views. When pressed further I stated that it would be unwise for any man or set of men to openly and publicly discuss this matter or be identified with any movement until intelligent reasons for it were fully discussed and understood. the question must be met. let us do "It it calmly and carefully, fully weighing the contentions of both sides.

As the matter now stands, no cogent or urgent reasons have been given for change. Our association meets during the present week, and at the meeting of the allied associations, on December 20, we will take such part as our knowledge of the matter in question calls for. A New York paper of Saturday said that 'the aristocratic Miss Belle Harbor' was flirting with the This is not true. because we have not yet considered it at all." ON TRIAL IN BROOKLYN.

At the latter institution he was serving a term for having shot his brother, John, in a dispute over money matters. Conselyea was before Justice Jaycox last week, when he made a fight to gain his freedom, claiming that he is sane and that he is kept in the asylum by a conspiracy of his relatives, who want to get hold of his property. The jury which first heard the case returned a verdict that he was sane, but Justice Jaycox set that verdict aside, and the second jury brought in a verdict that he was still insane.

Conselyea then declared that he would continue the fight for his freedom. He was sent back to Dannemora, pending a decision in his case. The newly appointed committee will take charge of the property, which is valued at about $30,000, and he will have to give a bond for $35,000 under the order of the court.

He stopped the machine, and when he raised the hood the flames leaped out all around him. Before help could be secured the machine, was totally destroyed. This is the latest of a series of automobile accidents that has kept ton people wondering who would be the next victim.

On Saturday evening G. W. Cobb was driving his big limousine car out from in front of the Huntington House, when he collided with a machine driven by Frank Townsend, chauffeur for Hugh Flaherty. Townsend was going west along Main street and the collision occurred just at the corner of Wall and Main streets. The fronts of both machines were considerably' damaged.

Frank Hale and Postmaster E. B. Hawkins seem to have started the series when their machines came together at the corner of Main street and New York nue on Friday. In this case the damage was slight. These, together with the serious accident to the machine of Hans Iversen, on the Jericho Turnpike, near Mineola, on Saturday, form a rather unusual chapter of accidents.

LOVE LANE A NECESSITY. Commissioners Decide Long Pending Mattituck Road Case and Award Damages to Land Owners. (Special to The Eagle.) Mattituck, L. November 29-The commissioners in the Love lane road matter here, who have been struggling with the problem for over a month, have decided the road is a necessity, as applied for, and have awarded Mrs. Ruhamah Hazard $400 damages, Mrs.

Winnie Shalvey, $150, and Miss Eloise Robinson and Mrs. Annie Pugh, $1 each. Love lane has been traveled for forty years or more, but it is a private rightof-way only. The applicants wanted a public highway to the creek, which is becoming more and more valuable to Mettituck each year, because of the government dredging done there. No land is taken from Miss Robinson and Mrs.

Pugh- they merely owned a fee in the road-so their damages were fixed at the nominal sum of $1 each. It is probable that an appeal will be taken from the decision of the commissioners in awarding damages, for Mrs. Hazard and Mrs. Shalvey introduced testimony to the effect that they would be damaged from $150 to $700 for Mrs. Shalvey and from $400 up to $1,500 for Mrs.

Hazard, although the commissioners couldn't see any such amount of damage. WEDDING PARTY HIS GUESTS. Carll S. Burr, Host of Merry Company on Eve of Granddaughter's Wedding. (Special to The Eagle.) Commack, L.
