PLANE RUINED, vX 'V' ''i I i CHARGE WITNESSES IN COOLEY PROBE TESTIFY Crain to Hold Investigation Tomorrow to Determine Future Action Witnesses will be grilled to-morrow by District Attorney Crain, of New York County, to open the actual investigation of Edwin J. Cooley'a administration of the Probation Bureau of the Court of General Sessions, with the particular aim to uncover the circumstances surrounding the employment by Cooley of his sister, Mrs. Marguerite Cooley Lawler aa temporary chief clerk at the same time that she was on the teachers' pay-roll of the Buffalo public schools.

Whether or not the case will go ta Ihe Grand Jury, the prosecutor declared last night, depends on the nature of the testimony. He begsn a cursory examination of the matter last week after having been notified by Comptroller Berry of the payment to Mrs. Lawler of representing her salary as provisional chief clerk in her brother's office for seven months-, last year at $2,000 a year. Retention of her name on the city payroll was due to Cooley'a certification, that she bad resigned her teacher's post in Buffalo, but subsequently it was disclosed that Mrs. Lawler was drawing her Buffalo pay at the same She has since quit teaching pend-ii; the outcome of the inquiry now being conducted by the Buffalo Department of Education, whose assistance will probably be sought by iatant District Altornev Harold W.

subway line which extend from the B. M. T. tunnel at Ihe Battery to a connection with the B. M.

T. system at the Municipal Building to serve as a short-line downtown service, thereby avoiding the necessity of sending trains up Broadway to the Sixtieth street tunnel to Queens. Because Nassau street is only 40 frt wide and curves slightly in vicinity of Kulton street, the construe-1 tion of subway station at that po'nti presented some novel aud difficult fea-l tures.

April 19. With 000,000,000 gallons of water dnjly (i I he atakr, New York State and City, New Jersey, the State of Pennsylvania and City of Philadelphia will begin Monday in the Assembly Chamber at the State Mouse presentation of their sui tover the diversion of the waters fo the upper Delaware river and tributaries. The testimony will bt taken by Charles N.

Burch of Memphis, Special Master of the United States Supreme Court and the hearings are expected to last for nearly a month when the scene will he shifted to New York City for a like period. Following that, testimony of Pennsylvania will be taken in Philadelphia.

Municipalities located along the Delaware Kiver in New Jersey, New l'ork and Pensylvania also will register their to.

the diversion which is sought by Nw l'ork to supply potable water. It is contended that New York would lower the water mark on a navigable stream, resulting in serious to shipping and industry as endanger the potable water source of many municipalities that line the river from Port Jervis to. Delaware Bay. Diversion o' such large quantities from the headwaters of the Delaware would also result in the ruination of Ihe 17,000,000 oyster industry of Delaware Bay, where 50,000 area of subaqueous, lands art used for the planting and propagation of oysters, New Jersey contends. New York State has already appropriated 11,000,000 to finance the construction of reservoir on five rivers located within, the boundary of the Empire State that are important tributaries.

The diversion of Delaware waters between the three bordering State vha been a question that- baa been agitated for many years. In 1923 commissioners were authorized to conduct a survey and prepare a compact for submission to the legislatures of the three commonwealths. When it became apparent the pact would not be approved the City of New York announced it intention of taking the seeded water without the permission of the other States. New Jersey filed an action, against this tours as did Pennsylvania. On May 6, 1929 notice waa sent to Qevernor Boosevelt, Mayor Walker and Corporation Counsel Hilly of an application for leave to file in the IT.
