It Is felt that to confine the representation to the two Vggest boroughs Is to give them un-oue welfrht in the board. If a vu-ancy fails by the loss of a Manhattan member then Brooniyn should rress all its claims most forcibly for a return to an equal representation with Manhattan. Even a Queens man w-ith the present Brooklyn representation would give more adequate representation to this side of the East Kiver. Richmond representatives have presented claims but they are not regarded as adequate to outweigh those of Brooklyn. Queens or the Rronx.

That the Governor is not disinclined to respect the claims of the last named is reported from Albany. Commissioner Euslis, whose has not yet been filled, expected when VILLA DEFENDS DEATH OF BRITISH SUBJECT (Continued from First Page.) to deliberate at greater Iengtn so there might be no mistake in arriving at the prisoner's guilt or innocence. It is believed the members of the tribunal feared the agitation over tha execution of W. S. Benton might create a sentiment that would force them Bauch -free.

The work of the other soloists was good. These included Joseph A. Scally, Edward J. King. Irving J.

"Billy" Woods had his hands full weeding out the material, with the result he had a trained lot of singers last night. The chorus sang well together under the direction of the coach, who led with a baton.

The end men. with the aid of the interlocutor, kept the house in an uproar. They were Alfred Lindner. James Ferrar, Herbert Fernandes, George E. Lechtrecker.

But th demand by property owners fur in-. convenience at me siaiKT.s of this new three-track road, whi will be one of the principal feeders of NEW TRANSFER MEASURE. Myrtle Avenue Extension Contract Is Awarded. One of the most Important problems In connection with the operation of trolley cars In this borough in the rush hours is caused by tne congestion of Fulton street. This main artery of Brooklyn travel, from its Indian trail and cow path days until now, has never been half wide enough for the traffic imposed on it.

it was thought that when the broad parallel thoroughfare of widened Livingston street was provided that diff had been overcome to such a degree that no particular trouble would ever supervene. No relief can be afforded by putting in a second track on the City Hall loop, as that would congest the streets too much at the Six Points of Brooklyn, provided by the con junction of Fulton, Washington, Court ana Montague streets and Myrtle avenue, destined to be more thronged than ever when two new subway sta Hons are constructed underneath one another there. The plans have been pexfected for putting to ute the old-time loop in Johnson street, connecting Ful ton and Washington streets, where cars were run before the Borough Hall loop was opened. The tracks for trolley operation still remain in that part of Johnson street, where they were laid in horse car days, although the switches connecting them with the tracks in Fulton and Washington streets have uccii icuiuteu. xiie-e are snoriiy to De ropiacea, permits for the work having been Issued, and In the early spring one-half of the loop lines will take this loop and the rest th Borough Hall tracks.

It is probable that even with this change the plan of having Borough Hall cars in the morning rush hours pass down Livingston street and loop by way of Jornlemon street into Fulton street will not be abandoned. By the relief of Fulton street congestion it Is hoped to operate more cafi theie In the hours when they are needed. 1 1 air. ana Mrs. A.

Like Gov. Glynn. Mayor Mitchel. said he will be present providing af fairs of the city do not restrain him.

Borough President Pounds is enthusiastic over the exhibition and says he believes it will not only be a big boost to the National Guard, but to Brooklyn as well. Controller Prendergast. who has always shown a deep interest in military affairs, especially in Brooklyn, will attend. Others who have been invited are George McAneny, president of the Board of Aldermen; Congressman William M. Calder, Alvah W.

Burlingame. chairman of the Assembly Committee on Military Affairs; Congressman Herman A. Metz. Major General John F. Ryan, Adjutant-General H.

D. Hamilton, Brigadier-General John (5. Eddy, Brigadier-General George R. Dyer and all the United States army officers stationed at the different forts and Government posts in the vicinity of New York City. The military exhibit is to be a novelty for Brooklyn.

It will be conducted on a scale which will be more pretentious than any exhibit of its character ever held in this part of the country. There is every indication now that other states will follow the example being set here. That interest the exhibit is widespread is ap parent from the thousands of requests received for invitations, not only from persons living in Brooklyn, but in the other boroughs and different parts of the State. Persons in New Jersey and Connecticut, interested in military affairs, have requested Invitation tickets. There is to be no admission price.

The interior of the armory has been transformed into a miniature battlefield with camps here and there and guns arranged in warlike fashion. There will be at every avenue and turn soldiers well versed in military affairs to answer questions regarding the exhibit, the workings of the guns, rifles and other machines, the significance of the camp, signals, communication means, the whys and wherefores of every article presented for inspection and a general description of army life. Because the public is expected to display a great Interest In the field pieces, rifles and small arms of the soldiers, the Ordnance Department has prepared an excellent exhibit of firearms and has assigned experts in their use to discourse upon them to the visitors. The big rapid firing guns which can do alone almost as much firing as an army will be among the features of the display by the Ordnance Depart-mr-nt. How the soldiers are supplied with food in times of battle and when on hard and forced marches will be shown by the Commissary Department of which the State militia boasts.

The Commissary Department of the 8tate militia has often been praised by regular army men. In the "battles" between the "Blue" and "Red" armies, the de-nurtment rtid not fall behind once.

It has been the aim of the officers to arrange the exhibit to enable the public In one night to get a fund of knowledge about military affairs and the life of a soldier. The advantages membership in the militia will be disclosed. The privileges the men en- Joy, the training, physical and mental that they receive ana tneir social en-lovments will be pointed out. The Veterans Association of the regiment is to be a prominent factor in the exhibit.

The veterans are to have a camp where those who have served together will congregate and aid in making the exhibit a success Music lovers will nna a treat at the exhibit ia the form of concerts by the Twenty-third Regiment band under the direction of Thomas F. Shannon, who has prepared an excellent programme for each of the nights.
