"We should not use the ro.vnl and mon-nrchial nnmc of kins or queen for any of our American monuments of art or Science. We have ploi.ty of Rood American names without borrowing any of the nomenclature monarchy. They lo it Canada, it is true, hut we should emphasize our free institutions by truly republican names." This is what John D. Crimmins said when protesting at a meeting of the Queensboro Bridge Celebration Committee yesterday at Thirty-fourth street and Fifth avenue, Manhattan, against the substitution of the name "Queens" for the Blackwell's Island Bridge, lie also deplored the fact that we had retained the terms king and queen ax applied to two counties in this city. The committee, composed of E.

A. Mo-Dougal, John D. Criu.niins. J. Clarence Edwards, A.

E. Stewart. Geu-ge ple nd Lewis II. Bounds, which had charge of the chance of name of the bridge, read its report. There were two names suggested.

Queens" and 'Queens-boro." After Mr. Crimmins had spoken, many other followed, hut all opposed the name "Queens" ou the ground that il did not localize the bridge as well as "Queensboro Bridge." When William II. Williams. the chuirman of the Formation Committee, called the meeting to order the rooms of the Real Estate Exchange were tilled. It was the largest and most enthusiastic meeting of the committee.

The committee elected Alfred .1. Eno president of the Long Island League aud George Merers was selected as treasurer. I lie committee decided that a Finance mittee of fifteen should 'be established and selected (i. Hmvlund Leavitt. of Bayside, as its chairman.

Mr. Leavitt and Chairman Williams will appoint the members of the Finance Committee. The committee named Oct. as the date and Long Island City as the place for holding the big convention. llns convention will be composed of three delegates from every civic organization in Queens.

Manhattan mid Brooklyn close to the Queensboro Bridge. When this convention meets the Formation Committee will abdicate anil the convention will choose a permanent committee. It will be the most novel and democratic convention ever held in New York City, i Mr. Crimniings thought that the committee should become a permanent one and take up the matter of the terminal facilities of the Bridge. This was the consensus of opinion of all present.

It was decided that the chairman should appoint a committee of fifteen to call on the Mayor and inform him of the work that had thus far been done iu preparing for a celebration. Aftetf a general discussion on minor matfcfs the committee adjourned to meet signed the following pennon 10 iue Board of Aldermen: "We, the undersigned residents respectively of the Boroughs of Manhattan, Queens. Brooklyn, representing practically all the civic organizations in the Borough of Queens, and other citizens having permanent business and property interests there, desirous of its prosperity and representing likewise such organizations and individual citizens in the other boroughs of the city in like manner interested in the matters here declared, do most respectfully submit to you this memorial and petition for your action luereiu. "The cantilever bridge over the East River connecting the Boroughs of 'Manhattan aud Queens is nearing completion and the public interest urgently requires that for the inappropriate name for Blackwell's Island Bridge heretofore given to the structure shall be substituted the appropriate name distinctly indicated by the existing conditions and the results they will involve, namely, Queensboro Bridge. 'The reasons why this change of name is urgently needed are: "First.

The name 'Blackwell's Island Bridge' is inappropriate and injurious, because the name of the island has no historical nor other significance and no essential relation to the bridge such as to make the name apt or pertinent: because the suggestion therein contained of means of access to this bridge to the place supplying the name is false and because the name by its association in the minds of all our people with moral un-deanliness, from the use of the island as a prison site, is not only uninviting but distinctly repulsive. "Second. The name 'Queensboro Bridge is eminently significant and an- Ttropriato. By means of this bridge the centre of industrial activity of the city is connected with the largest borough ter ritorially of the city and the one in a great measure in (his to be come the great pho of homes for all classes of workers in the metropolis, and if the change we nice be made by the name alone in the decades to come the liome-scckor, the visitor, the traveler, the excursionist will be advised of the nature of the place to wldeii approach is riven, and therehy the bridge will add to its grandeur and be.iiitv the charm of 1 leas ing invitation. Already such methods of naming bridges by the locality to which they give access lias the authority of hkapp in this eitv.

"Third: It is most impoiflant that all that shall be done in relation to this great improvement be done with due regard its destiny. The bridge is not merely unique in structural design, huge in size. Admirably adapted to all needs and moth nds of transit, noble triumph of engineers, science and artisans' skill, it is more than all this; it is a moral as well as a physi cal achievement. It marks an era in tin advance of urban civilization, because this city by its use bringing within the reach of nil its toilers homes with sunlight, fresh air and yard space will aid lor its people the moral as well as the physical curse of stifling congestion of population. Hence it is a high duty as well as continued exercise of the civic Wisdom which created this blessing for the city people that it shall he fitly named.

"Therefore We most earnestly petition your honorable liody that by appropriate exercise ot your function irt the prern iscs yon cause the name of this bridge to be charged from Blnckwell's Island to Queensboro Bridge.

Herman Ranh, who originated the Consumers' Park Hotel and ho hns a chain of hotels and houses in Manhattan, believes that Brooklynites nre fast assuming the diu-ing-out habit, as nre Maiihattnnites, and that another high-class restaurant will he appreciated. He has taken the lower floor of the Johnston Building, on Nevins street near Fulton, which has been vacant since the old Ronzo went out of business. The whole interior has been transformed and none would recognize the former cafe. Cabinet makers, electricians and decorators have boon at work all summer carrying out Mr. Raub's ideas of beauty and harmony.

By rearrangement of both the interior nnd exterior he has secured more room, more light nnd better ventilation. Green. White and gold are the colors used in the decoration, nnd it will stand scrutiny with any restaurant in New York. Mr. Raub declares.

Wednesday is to be the opening day. It wits hoped to have the place open on Labor Day, but it was found that many litfle details would not have been cleared up by that time, so the day of opening was postponed. Air. Raub is a well-known Brooklynite. For several years he was president of the Consumers' Park Brewing Company.

He was the first Mardi Gras king at Coney Island. He knows the restaurant business thoroughly, having spent nearly all his life time at it. He believes that Fulton street, and Flathnsh avenue is going to be the hnsiest spot in Brooklyn and is backing his belief by an expenditure of several thousand dollars. IS BLAMED FOR ROBBERY. Detectives Arrest Colored Man on Strength of Girl Prisoner's i Story to Magistrate.

George Batiste, a colored was arrested Friday night by Detectives Reilly nnd Connelly, of the Classon avenue station, after Bella Perkins, a colored girl, now in the Raymond street Jail, wrote to Magistrate Naumer and said that the man was responsible for her robbing Miss Rose flnrdiner, of No. 411 Carlton avenue, a few weeks ago. The officers sent a decoy telephone message to the man and when he- arrived at the house where the girl for merly lived be was taken into custody. In the Myrtle Avenue Court yesterdny he denied strenuously having had anything to do with the rsbbery. Magistrate Naumep held him ill $600 for a hearing Tuesday.

(Sivctul Cm rciiponoVnrp "The Cltttnn" from lireiiieiten. Wash Though a gallant little actor in the American assault on Manila, the steamer Zaliro. under the laws which have driven our merchant marine from the high seas, is denied the privilege of engaging in peaceful pursuits under the Amcri.an Hag. Thtit is the reason the trim little craft is nut of commission at the Paget Sound navv vard. following the failure nf tlie government to sell her.

The Zaliro was purchased by Admiral Dewey for transport purposes at Hong Kong, just prior to the departure the Aiucrican fleet on its niemorablc cruise to Manila. During the assault mi the little era It was run close into the outer defenses and played havoc with the Spanish garrison with her machine guns. Later she took part in the bombardment of the Filipino defenses at Subig hay. During the war the Zafiro was sent to Seoul, Korea, with a large detachment of marines lo rescue American refugees. Some time ago the Zafiro was brought across the Pacific and the government decided to sell her.

The vessel having been of IOuglish registry when Admiral Dewey purchased her, could not under mcri-lia III marine aws he admitted to American registry. Though the gallant little ship had been fought under the American Hag, yet it could not engage in commerce under the same flag. Owing to this fact purchaser could not be found. The Zafiro offers one illustration of whv IM) tier cent, of our boasted $3,000 .000.000 foreign commerce is carried in foreign bottoms. BROOKLYN GIRL HERE.

Former Williamsburg School Girl Now Star of Big Show at the Empire This Week. A Brooklyn girl, who has ncquired fame abroad, will make her first appearance as a professional performer in America to-morrow afternoon at the new Empire Theatre. Broadway and Ralph avenue. Sin is Miss- Agnes Theodore, but is known on the slaire and to the profession as Ce'Dora. She is (lie only woman in the world who has ever "looped" or circled the interior of a huge globe on a motor cyck'.

The trick has been accomplished by a man, but never before by a woman. For four years she has been doing her ride daily in the big music halls in Paris. Brussels, Madrid, Berlin and other continental cities. Her Inst appearance abroad was nt the London Hippodrome. Now she has come to America, the land of her birth, to show her daring and her proficiency.

Woman-like, she insisted on giving her first performance in Brooklyn, where she spent her early girlhood. Miss Theodore was born on Bedford avenue, near South Second street. 19 years ago. She attended Public School No. 19 and was ponuliir in the neighhor-hood.

But, as she says, she wauled to do something that no one had ever before accomplished, and she thinks she has succeeded. But it took her a long time, tn perfect her net, Charles Hatfield, who once coached the Shcepslicad Buy Rowing Club and helped them to win the Brooklyn "Eagle" Cup, trained Ce'Dora and is loud in his praises of her daring. To show how implicitly he believes ill her ability, he proposes to gn inside the globe to-morrow night anil let her ride bv bun, feeling sure that he won't he hurt. Yet, he says, if she nhonlil let her machine waver even a fraction of an inch, il might be serious for both of them. Aside from Co Dora, musical burlesque will be the feature of this week's attraction at the Empire, where Miner's American Burlesquers will be seen in a two-act offering, entitled "Morocco Bound," The book and the lyrics have been prepared by Guy Bratrdon and Harry Ferguson, who wrote the music.

The show is entirely different from usual slap-slick comedy and vulgarity generally seen in burlesque houses. It Is filled with bright nnd catchy music, funny lines and laughable situations. The supporting company includes half a hundred girls from the pretty HI tie "broiler" to the handsomely gowned and stately show girls, all of whom can sing and dance. Wilbur Dobbs and Dorothy Wnrde, the girl with the perfect figure, head, the company. The scenery, costumes and electrical effects are aboye the ordinary.

In the olio will be seen the Two Graces in a comedy skit caller! "The College Kid and His t)nd," Chick Bnd Chicklets, comedy bicycle act; Gertrude Fiske. operaric soprano; Francis and Rogers, in "The Johnny and the Chorus Girl," and Wilbur Dobbs. in a comedy act, supported by the entire company. Ladies will he especially interested in the gowns worn by Miss Warde, they having been made by Mme. Lubin.

Auti-McCarren Man Warns Voters Vcond A.

D. Against Senator's Imported TIuirs. At Hall. a crowded meeting at High and Brid- Kearney's streets, last mil MoCarren ubly District, by Aldeniinn Bridges was evening. .1.

Bridges, leader of the Second Ass replied to the charge iimd.i George .1. Colgan that Mr for the (dosing up of the foot Bridge street, Mr. Bridges presented fails and doou-liiicnls of public record showing that neither he nor any of the members of the local board at the time, wlrcli included Alderman 1 loaning, of the First llislriit. ami Alderman Moses Wall r. of the Third, had at any time voted for the proposition.

BKttKif-S, Who Is Leadlnn Anti-X; I'arrpn Fight in Second. matter of closing Bridge street laid fther documents sii 'unitled by Mr, Bridges proved that he alcavs had on-1 posed the matter whenever it was brought Mr. Bridges clinched his argument by reading this resolution, which was City of New York, does hereby favor the same, so as to close and discontinue the aforesaid street.

Mr. Bridges appealed to the voters to appreciate at its worth Alderman Col-gan's statement which, the speaker said. had heen trumped to help the Met ar-ren cause in rhe district, and said that the power of the local hoard extended no further than to recommend the opening cr closing of a street. "I say this much to you," saaid Mr. Bridges, "not only in iustice to mvself but to Alderman Downing, Republican; and Alderman Wafer, a McCarreiute.

We all understand the object of Colgan in making such a statement. We understand other things down here. too. It is a matter of common rumor that stands pretty high in our district, and that some of the, applicants have had to put up as much as before they could even dream of opening one. Such privileges are rated very high in certain quarters, but I defy nny man living to say that either my father, when life was ajivo and in the Board of Aldermen, or myself has ever reaped any benefit from such privileges.

"Now, so far as Cohan's charge about Bridge street is concerned," continued Mr. Bridges. "1 merely wish to say that it comes with pretty dad grace from Mar- fin Conly's parrot. Alderman Colgan struts around as though he were lender but we nil know that behind poor Eddie Meany. and behind nlgan, stands Martin Conly, who is the real leader, hut who.

for purposes of his own, keeps in the background." In conclusion, the speaker asked nil his supporters to get out on primary day to mau the polls and to keep close watch upon repeaters, for. "I know," said Mr. Bridges, "the MoCarren side is going to have lots of repeaters here, some from Philadelphia, on Tuesday next, just as they had in the March primaries, when the ballot doxes were stuffed and the election stolen from us. Got to the polls and see thai none of these repeaters vole the names of our men. If the election is condiicted honestly we shall win without a doiidt." Lawyer Andrew C.

Colvin and other speakers denounced McCarren and praised Mr. Bridges for his modesty, fairness and integrity. Mr. Colvin again lasherl Alderman Colgan for the filthy language which he said the Aldermaii had applied to him in the March primaries. Mr.

Colvin's insistence, upon this subject at every meeting he addresses, has made large accessions to the ranks of Mr. Bridges' followers. INDORSE HUGHES.

General Belief Is Entertained that Sultan Abdul Asis Cannot Re-oovor Lost Ground.

In the notes received from the signatories, the Foreign Ollice says, there is an unmistakable lutimalion that the powers decline to he identified with Germany's "discourtesy and treachery." The Foreign Ollice mentions only England and Italy as replying to the German note, hut generalizes that all the excepting Germany, have signified their intentions of ignoring the Kaiser. As soon us Spain finally approves the terms nf the joint note, it will he eoin-muuicalcil lo the powers. The diplomat ic situation is as follows: Germany seeks to have signatories to Algecirus treaty reioguize Mulai Ha fid as Sudan before cxa ting pledges of mutual interest to the I'owein.

Germany declares her aim is ittlie political and commercial independence of Morocco and that she has as much rignt to propose recognition of the new Sultan as any other Kwer. notwithstanding that France and Spain were mimed as mandatories by the conference. France contends that specific pledges should he.

She declares Germany's alleged premature action to be an assault noon the t-eitv.

The First District leader recently smke nt a meeting'1 Of Bcnttie's opponents in the Second District, admitting that he was personally 'in terested iu the primary fight, there, and Mr.

Beattie is hitter. The sttiteraeut was, in part, us follows: "How can any decent Republican tolerate the interference of Dady in the Second Assembly District? Dady is a stench in the nostrils of decent Republicans. No Republican of the Second Assembly District has been guilty of rani-feasance iu ollice or indicted for fraud ns Dadv was when he was sewer com missioner. No Republican of the Second Assembly District has been guilty of treachery to his party candidates as Tn.li. i uil tn hnra Vionn tAn-nl'il TnTin Hill Morgan, candidate for the Assembly, and James McKeen, candidate for the Supreme Court, because he could not control them.

No Republican of the Second Assembly District has been guilty of resigning from the Republican party to support a Democratic candidate, ns Dadv did when he supported Mfvor Boodv to get rich contracts. The Second District will not tolerate the interference of such a man." HEFFLEY TELLS OF ALASKA. Has Been Toward Pole Getting Ma. terial for Lecture Summer School Graduates.
