Yesterday Adele wanderbd Into the Louie Cloak Suit Company's shop at 2152 Fulton to call on the clerk, Philip Bellman, as has been her dally ciistom.

She failed to find him there, so she toddled down to the cellar. Here she discovered her friend, his hands and feet tied, his mouth gagged. In due time the police that three armed men had entered the Louis Cloak St Suit Store and Imprisoned Bellman In the cellar. They made away with thjee suits of "clothes, an overcoat and (100 In cash. The text of Mr.

Watermans speech about the Coney Island land deals was in part, as follows: "That Tammany Hall, when In ccntrol of the city government, always enriches lta favorites and gouges the public has not within the history of Greater New York been more clearly shown than by its land deals in connection with the Coney Island Boardwalk Improvement. Two weeks ago I revealed facts cr. these land deals. I return again to them here at Coney Island where you all are familiar with the situation. "I charged two weeks ago that the City of New York, on April 22, last, paid (861,369 for West Sixteenth street, which had been acquired In 1893, and had In all respects been treated as a city street until Oct.

6, 1922, when John H. McCooey, appeared before the Tammany Board of Estimate representing his brother-in-law, George C. Tllyou. "I now charge that the Tammany corporation counsels office made no- effort to avoid paying for West Sixteenth street. "I now charge that the Tammany corporation counsels office neglected to present the facts as to the city's ownership of that street to the court sitting in the condemnation case.

"I now charge that the Tammany corporation counsel's office acqulescd In the payment by the city of (861,369 for property, the town of Gravesend, the predecessor In title of the city, had acquired thirty years before. "I now farther charge that the Tammany city government so Juggled the street plan for the Coney Island boardwalk Improvement that Tammanys favorites, Including the Tilyous, got corner lota of fabulous valns on newly opened streets. I charge also that If these new streets had been ran as they should have been ran, these Tammany favorites would have no such corners. "While the taxpayers of Coney Island still were paying these assessments In Installments for the price of the street, the Steeplechase Park enterprise, owned by Tllyou, came In and calmly Squatted 'on the street. In 1906 Coney Island residents pressed Borough President Coler to clear Tllyou out of the street.

T. W. Kramer claimed to own the street and the Steeplechase Park had a lease. Kramer and Steeplechase Park brought a lawsuit in the Supreme Court to enjoin the Borough President from ousting them. In that lawsuit a preliminary Injunction was granted by Justice Frederick E.

Crane and after argument an injunction. pending the trial of the action, was granted by Justice Jo-siah T. Marean, now dead. "After Tilyous Steeplechase Park (Continued on Page 2.) The text of Mr. Waterman's statements attacking Senator Walker on his subway policies was In part as follows: "Unable to keep on dodging, Mr.

Walker Is now exposed as standing for the same unworkable scheme on subways as the present Tammany Board of Estimate. It was the Insistence of this Board upon that scheme, and its rejection of every workable plan for providing new subways, which led to the Boards Just condemnation by a Tammany Judge appointed by a Tammany Governor to study the subway question. Mr. Walkers complete adoption of the subway policy which has meant eight years of obstruction, delay and inaction Is positive proof that Tammany itself has been responsible for the subway sin of the present administration, and that Mayor Hylan was eliminated by Tammany Hall, not by reason of his subway policy or for any other reason relating to the government of the city, but simply and solely because Tammany desired to place In the City Hall a more subservient creature of Its own. "When Mr.

Walker points to his record in the Legislature as a guarantee of his good faith on the subway problem he tries to deceive flic public. "His whole legislative record, including his service as the mouthpiece of the present Tammany administration on subway and on other publio utility questions, shows that he Is not Interested In providing relief, but is Interested solely In the attempt to make votes by appeals to Ignorance, to passion and to prejudice. Mr. Walker is now repeating with parrot-llke precision the same demagogic chatter about wornout street surface lines about payments of whatever price the companies want to charge about ten-cent fares and all other twaddle and claptrap which have wearied the people of New York during the eight years of enbway delay and Inaction. It was that public disgust with Idle, stupid tirade and abuse which wae capitalized by Tammany Hall for the purpose of sidetracking Mayor Hylan.

Now that he has been disposed of. the present Tammany candidate Is trying to catch votes With Tammany approval by the same methods, which, but. two toonths Ago, It professed to despise. AH of this must now he perfectly plain to the Voters of New York. Committed to Same Chaos i "Judged by his attempted discussion of the subway problem, Mr.

Walker must admit that he Is committed1 to exactly the same policy and plan which have brought the present suffering to the people of New York, or else he must admit he Is not nearly so familiar with the subway question as he say's hs Is (Continued on Page 8) 5 TRAFFjCPERILOUS Autoists Experience Difficulty In Driving Cooler To-night Is Promts. Autoists who experienced difficulties In driving on ths slippery streets of the borough last night can avoid further trouble by leaving their cars In the garage until early evening. Then it will be clear and somewhat colder, according to the report of, the Weather Man. A peculiarity yesterday afternoon was a noticeable flurry of snow with the temperature at forty-seven degrees. Brooklynites marvelled.

For those who dont care about driving anyway, and those who enjoy sitting restfully at home. It might be added that the rain to-day will be a nice, warm downpour. This brings the added oonsolatlon that furnace fires will not need touch care. And then again those who enjoy a nip In the air, of course will be pleased later on In the day, while those who enjoy seasonable winds that vary from south to west and northwest. wlH have their Innings about the same time; that Is, of course, If the Weather Man Is not mistaken.

Tee, the wash can be hung In the yard on Moonday, good housewives, and there will be a nice, cool breeze to dry them out quickly. The Weather Man eays so. Flatbush folks In particular were concerned by the rains, yesterday afternoon and evening, and although Borough President Gulder announces that the Flatbush relief sewer will be completed eight months ahead of schedule, they averred that dry cellars of the future gave them little consolation for the Inundation of last night.

(Details on Sporting Pages.) ic he Abolishing Queens Crossings by Costly Subway Too Heavy Drain Wants Ten-Year Abolition FEARS TRANSFERRING COST TO PASSENGERS "Elevated Method of Elimination Should Be Extent of 4 Burden. Transit Commissioner LeRoy T. Harkness, In a lengthy report made publio last night, thrsw cold water on the Atlantic Avenue Boulevard scheme.

Mr. Harkness addressed hie findings to the Transit Commission. They represented the result of hie Investigation of grade crossing conditions In Greater New York. On Tuesday Mr. Harkness will appear before the Legislative Committee on Grqde Crossings at Albany.

If the Atlantic avenue crossings In Queens were eliminated through an exceedingly costly subway plan, said Mr. Harkness, it would mean too heavy a drain on the railroad and lta patrons. Patrons Bear Chargee. Hs pointed out that the passengers would have to carry the fixed charges resulting from the great expense of the elimination. These, he said, would Include passengers from points remote from the city of New York, to whom the boulevard plan would be of no particular benefit "It must be clear that the elevated method of elimination la the meas.

ure of the extent to which the railroad and Its patrons should be burdened," he said. Taxpayers' organizations and the Board of Estimate already hare Adopted resolutions protesting against any elevated along Atlantic avenue. Mr. Harkness says the boulevard project Is properly a matter for the olty and he again raises the question of the city taking over the rapid transit lines on Atlantic avenue. The report plaeee at (11,000,606 the cost of the elimlnatloa of nineteen grade crossings on the Atlantic avenue division between East New York and Jamaica.

Stresses Need of Panda All of Mr. Harkness' recommendations are based upon the necessity of obtaining additional appropriations from the Legislature. He pointedly remarks that It would take ninety years to complete the work of abolishing these danger spots If the Legislature appropriated funds at the average rate that has obtained since 1910. Commissioner Harkness plsads for a ten-year programme for the abolition of existing dangerous crossings. Mr.

Harness quotes figures to emphasize the hazards of the grade crossings within the city The grade crossing problem In New York City, he says In part, "may be expressed In this wise: Over 400 existing grade crossings, of which 808 should be eliminated as soon as possible, killed during the period between July 1, 1907, and January 1. 1928, 263: Injured, 426. Cost of eliminating the 308 dangerous crossings, In excess of (60,000,000, which, however, does not Include the reconstruction of the New York Central tracks on the West Side of the Borough of Manhattan and probably only partially the treatment of the Atlantlo Avenue Division of (he Long Island Railroad In the Boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens.

Between I and 7 P.

tha evening express hours, the Utica avenue service will go from thirty-nine to approximately ninety trains, the New Lots service from thirty-one to thlrty-slx trains and the Flatbush service from twenty to twenty-four tralna Under the next arrangement no trains will be turned during rush hours at Atlantlo avenue, Brooklyn removing a source of Inconvenience and delay. All express trains will run through that station. The change will doubtless require some readjustment to their benefit of the traveling habits of those who use the Eastern parkway line, but this should not be difficult "The trains to and from Fla'bush avenue will be Lenox avenue-Bronx trains over the West Side subway line, while Utica avenue trains will be East Side expresses, while 1 the trains to and from New Lots will be Broadway branch expresses. "It la a great satlifaoilon to the Commission to see this servloe finally Instituted Open warfare between Brooklyn ooal dealers and the New York State Coal Commission loomed last night Charles W. Berry, ohalrman of tha State Commission, expressed displeasure at the failure isf the coal dealers to eo-operste fully with the authorities.

In a sharp statement he threatened to place the distribution of ooal in Brooklyn and other boughs on a municipal ownership basis unless the, dealers abandon their apathetic tao-tlos at once. Gen. Berry's ultimatum to the dealers was prompted by their failure to date to procure supplies of an thraclte substitutes, such as coke and seml-bltumlnoua coal. The prospect of a pitched battle between Brooklyn retailers of anthracite and the authorities was the prlnolpal development of yesterday, the fifty-fourth day since the miners dropped their coal picks on Sept. 1, Hylan Beady to Aid.

The State Coal Commission chairman Is prepared to place the entire olty situation before the Municipal Assembly and ask that legislation be enacted enablln Health Commissioner Monaghan to dispense coal In the name of the municipal. ty. Mayor Hylan Is ready to co-operate to the limit and stands prepared to call a special session of the city legislature as soon as the crisis reaches the peak. Gen. Berry said last night that consumers so far have not placed many orders for soft coal and dealers are reluctant to put In a big sup- ply for fear that the strike In the anthracite coal fields may be settled soon and they will be left with the soft coal on their hand.

'While 1 sincerely hope the strike will be settled," said Gen. Berry, "It Is possible that even In tha event of a settlement the mines may not La started until winter la well under way. "In view of the disinclination of the dealers to stock up on soft ooal may ask the city authorities to establish city depots and sell soft coal and other substitutes to the people. The public should prepare for the contingency of the strike being continued." Cost Maintained. Gen.

Berry will visit a number of cities up-Btate next week and in the meantime the advisory committee will co-operate with the city authorities if It Is deemed advisable to open city depots. Brooklyns leading dealers con-tlnued to maintain their quoted prices of (28.60 a ton yesterday and Indicated that this figure would increase during the current week. In quoting prices 'yesterday several dealers remarked thats only the price to-day; It may change before delivery can be made. Burns Brothers price for nut coal was (20.60, an advance of (1 over Fridays quotation. The Brooklyn-Nevlns Coal which quoted (22.60 nut coal and (28.60 a ton for ptove coal on Friday, said yesterday that there was no nut or stove coal on hand.

Three companies, Powell A Titus, Parkvllls Coal Pockets, and the Larkin Coal Company, reported being put of coal, but each was ready to supply coke at an average figure of (IT a ton. The Bcranton-Leblgh Coal Company held to ltf low figure of (14.96 ton for etova, nut and egg coal. Prices Compared. Bellowing is a detailed' list of ooal Companies and their prices: Company. Kind.

The coal was attached tn an ex-' parte proceeding brought by Ruhel Coal and Ice Company against Max (Continued on Page 24.) His Opponents Policy Is the Very One Condemned by McAvoy Report, Says Further Statement. Frank D. Waterman last night aimed a double-barreled attack on his Tammany oppon ent. The cannonading was heavy as the Republican candidata for Mayor, swinging around tha circle of Brooklyn meetings, renewed the assault on the Coney Island land deals of the Tammany administration.

That no attempt had been made to safeguard the citys interests in the West Sixteenth street case, end that the Tammany city government juggled street plans at the beach resort for its favorites were new charges launched last night. The big speech of the evening was supplemented by a statement given out from his headquarters in which Tammany Candidate' Walkers ignorance on transit matters scored. Mr. Waterman drove home his point that the Walker transit policy was the very policy tSftt hStLbeen condemned by the McAvoy report. He declared that his opponent proved his Insincerity by pleading again for the (275,000,000 city debt amendment The earliest possible date at which this could become affective, he said, la Jan.

Although the Intention ot suoh laws la laudable enough, they have not worked out right. They have Increased, not diminished, crimes of violence. WhyT The answer la simple enough.

Because -ood citizens obey the law and disarm. The criminal doesnt give a rap for It and remains armed. Bootlegging In firearms cannot be suppressed, no matter how hard try.
