THE BROOKLYN CITIZEN, TUESDAY, JUNE 30, ASPINALL DEFENDED BY DISTRICT ATTORNEY Declares Heavy Sentence of Brown Was Justifiable. OTHER LAWYERS APPROVE. Man Who Denounced Criminal Court Said to Deserve Five Years More. Sentencing of Andrew Brown to additional terms. of imprisonment after sentence had once been passed upon him by Judge Joseph Aspinall, in the County Court, yesterday, because he expresed the wish that the Judge "would croak before he left the bench," to-day met with the hearty approval of lawyers, court attendants and those of the public familiar with the circumstances of the case.

Precedents for the action of Judge Aspinall were pointed out by District Attorney John F. Clarke, who spoke at length regarding the matter. "The act of Judge Aspinall, in Brown's case," said District Attorney Clarke today, "was perfectly justifiable. And Galvin, whom the gang tried to save, to-day pleaded guilty to the crime of burglary in the second degree. Brown is a young incorrigible.

showed no desire towards reformation, but came into court with the impudent assurance of showing the 'gang' that he 'died "There is plenty of precedent for Judge Aspinall's action. There was the case of McLaughlin, who was tried before Judge Moore, in Winchester Britton's time. Judge Moore gave him twenty years and McLaughlin said: 'It's too bad you can't give me "Turning and looking the prisoner squarely in the eye, Judge Moore said, 'Well, I don't know. Let's see if I A Sentence of Forty Years. "The fellow was then tried on two other indictments pending against him and he was given a maximum sentence of forty years.

"There was another example of a man who was utterly incorrigible. "Once a prisoner whom Judge Moore had sentenced, picked up a heavy iron inkstand from the clerk's desk and tried to hurl it at the judge. The result was that his sentence was increased. "The principal sentence is for the reformation of the individual sentenced. When a prisoner shows that he is incorrigible one thinks immediately that his sentence should have been heavier.

"I want to say right here, however, that no young man coming into the County Court, guilty of his first offense, who shows a sincere desire for reformation, and who is repentant in his manner, but has marked leniency shown him. "Both judges have a marked tendency toward humanity, and I have seen Judge Aspinall all broken up at the tears of a mother, wife or sister over the waywardness of her son, husband or brother when they have appealed to him for mercy. Says Brown Wanted to "Die Game." "But where an incorrigible crook comes before the court, beyond reformation, a man or a woman, who had adopted the criminal profession from preference, he should receive: severe treatment, not 50 much as a punishment but as a deterrent to others. Every criminal who is sentenced has his followers, the men who come to the court room to see him get his sentence. They are a species of hero-worshipers.

It was bravado in Brown's case. He wanted to show his fellow crooks who had come to see him get his dose that he did die game. If Judge Aspinall had tamely submitted to his surliness and bravado it would have greatly detracted from the respect which is due to a court where criminal laws are enforced. "It has gone abroad over the United States that a man is harshly treated here if he is a confirmed criminal, and it is equally well known that a man who is unfortunate and gets into trouble and is repentant that he will receive leniency if his desire for reformation is honest. Judge Aspinall is a thoroughly humane man, and 80 is Judge Crane, but Judge Aspinall knew that this fellow had his friends there, and knew that a lesson must be administered to him, otherwise the gang would think that Brown was hero.

There was only one way to do in this case, and Judge Aspinall did it. "Brooklyn is one of the most attractive of places in the country for homes, Here we have the domestic life developed to the highest degree. There is very Ittle business comparatively. It is a place, therefore, where pilfering and larcenies and burglaries would be easy and could be carried on with impunity but for a strong criminal court. We have such a court here.

The police force can amount to very little save for the deterrent effect of such a court that shows no leniency to confirmed crooks found in the county. Where would be our present safety of home and life if it got out that our court of criminal prosecution had no backbone. I don't think it is the police force that keeps the crooks of the Bowery and other places across the river where they frequent from coming to this county, 50 much as it is their fear of being caught, and it is examples of Brown's kind that show the character of the men on the bench with whom they have to denl. As result Brooklyn is remarkably free from the depredations of confirmed outside criminals and the records will show that when such a criminal comes before the court in this counts for sentence he receives such a lesson that he never is caught committing a crime here again: in fact, that be stars away from Brooklyn for the rest of his Judge Maintains Action Was Legal. talked When seen this morning, Judge Aspinall freely on the sentencing of Brown.

"My action absolutely legal," he said, "and I certainly did not increase Brown's sentence because of any personal feeling on my part. I had received information from the jail that Brown and his gang had talked it deer: that Brown was going to the court and thus get Galvin off. His friends were here in court las see him do it, and when he behared he did I increased his sentence. I did so as a deterrent upon his tough friends. "I say again that my action is justifiable and legal, and the court has power to modify or change a sentence imposed upon prisoner, until the moment that the papers committing him actually leave 1 my hands.

I have precedents of my action in two instances in the time of the late Judge Henry A. Moore. In one instance Judge Moore increased the sentence of a tough prisoner from thirty to forty years, after the man had asked the Court if it could not give him more. In the second case a burglar tried to kill Judge Moore by attempting to throw a heavy iron weight at him. In that case the sentence was increased by the judge from ten to twenty years.

In Brown's case I.had to preserve the dignity of the court and do something which would act as a deterrent." Brown, who was three times sentenced yesterday, an aggregate of nine years' punishment being meted out to him, was the ringleader of 1 the quartet who broke into the residence of George R. Mead, at No. 640 Second street, last May. He is said to have been the one who planned the burglary. One of the men engaged in the crime, Richard Lundy, confessed and this led to the arrests.

Of the four, but one, William Galvin, pleaded not guilty. He was to have been tried next week. Deciding to plead guilty to the crime, he was before Judge Aspinall to-day. said Judge Aspinall, "you are doing this of your own free will and without hope of reward?" "Yes, Judge," replied the prisoner. "Have you anything to say," asked the Court, as to why sentence should not now be passed upon you?" "Yes," said Galvin, "I have." "Brown told me about the burglary.

He had been there three times already. I was drunk when Brown asked me to go with him. I stood outside the house and Brown gave me the bundles of shawls to sell." Galvin said he was 24 years old, lived at No. 566 Sackett street, and was a printer by trade. Judge Aspinall said he would carefully consider his case and remanded him for sentence next Monday, GRADUATES OF P.

FLOOD SUFFERERS FIGURING UP LOSSES Damages from Sewer Overflow May Reach $50,000, HEBREW BAKERS ARE RUINED. Suits Against the City ProbableMass Meeting to Urge Improvement in Sewer System. Residents of the "flooded section" in the Nineteenth Ward, whose homes and places of business were inundated yesterday, were engaged to-day in trying' to estimate the amount of damage they had sustained. The greatest damage was done in that section at Harrison avenue and Wallabout street, where at times the water reached a depth of five feet. The people of that section were engaged in pumping water from their cellars most of last night.

and in certain places fire engines were at work. It was learned to-day that a number of Hebrews who carried on bakeries have been practically ruined and all these with others who hare sustained losses will institute suits for damages against the city. Although it was not possible to obtain an accurate account of the losses, it was the general opinion to-day that tradesmen and the tenants on ground floors of houses sustained damage estimated at fully 000. One of the greatest sufferers by the deluge was the firm of Pfizer chemical manufacturers at Bartlett street and Harrison avenue, This plant occupies more than a square block and in the cellar, it was said to-day, was valuable unfinished stock. All of this, it is said, has been completely destroyed, as well.

as a great deal of finished material. It was not possible to-day to get an estimate of the firm's loss, but it will probably reach $20.000. There was talk this forenoon of holding a mass meeting. to take action regarding the sewer conditions and to 1 secure improvements. Three rears ago when heavy rains flooded the streets the city officials were importuned something, but nothing was ever WILLIAMSBURG BRIDGE WORK.

Progress for Month of June Has Been Satisfactory to the Engineers in Charge. In spite of the bad weather that has prevailed during June, work on the Williamsburg Bridge has gone forward rapidly. The repairs to cable which was damaged by the fire, are practically completed and the special wires and additional bands are all in place in cable B. The wire wrapping on this cable is partly in place, and the work of water-proofing the cable has begun. The fire caused considerable damage to the saddles of the cabales.

and one of the saddle over plates was lost, but the engineer in charge of the work reports that repairs to the saddles will be completed this week. Several gangs have been at work riveting and painting the bridge. The upper, part of the Manhattan approach has re. ceived its first field coat of paint. A field coat is a coat put on while the cables are in place and is used to distinguish it from the painting that is done in the shops before the steel is delivered.

During the past week two derricks were wrecked on the Manhattan anchorage because the arms were used at unsafe angles. The engineer reports that none of the men were injured. TWO VICTIMS MAY DIE.

QUARRELED OVER GIRL. Now One Is Under Arrest, Charged by the Other with Theft as a Result of Feud. When' Andrew Albina, 32 years old, of Garrick Manhattan. was atraigned before Magistrate Dooley, in Butler Street Court this morning, on the charge of being a thief, the story of. a fued of ten years' standing between two brothers was revealed.

Albina is now in Raymond Street Jail awaiting an examinathorn on brother the Luigi, charge 33 of Fears larceny, old, of preferred No. 106 by Union street, but looks for an early vindication and the arrest of his brother, as the result of his incarceration. Counsellor J. Leon Brandmarker will today apply for a writ of habeas corpus for the release of Andrew, claiming that he is illegally imprisoned, and that he was Arrested on a warrant in Manhattan that had been issued by Magistrate Dooley in this city, and not endorsed by a Manhattan magistrate, as the law requires. He claims that Andrew is innocent of the theft with which he is charged, and that the complainant had him locked up because of the family fued which at times threatened to take.

a very serious turn. Counsellor Brandmarker said that the trouble between the brothers dates back ten years ago, and before Luigi's marriage. The two are said to have had a difference about a girl. The girl and the brothers. came to this country and settled near one another.

i in a short space of time. Luigi married, and Andrew boarded with them. Some time later, Lawyer Brandmarker said, Luigi had his brother arrested and held for the Special Sessions on the charge of assault. Later Luigi's wife sued her husband for slander. Luigi claimed that she started the suit at the instigation of his brother.

Now Andrew claims that Luigi is trying to get square on him by having him locked up for alleged robbery. Luigi's story is that Andrew entered his apartments last April and stole $200 worth of jewelry. The complaint is made on the statement of Ansinita Peppa, the 12-yearold daughter of Luigi's brother-in-law. She swore to a statement that Andrew entered the house during Luigi's absence and took the jewelry, after putting a revolver to. her head and threatenin't to kill her if she said anything about his visit.

Andrew was arrested last night in Manhattan by Detectives Thomas Riley and James Gillen, of the Hamilton avenue station. on a warrant which was issued yesterday by Magistrate Dooley. The case was adjourned by Magistrate Dooley to July 6, and Andrew went to jail in default of $1,000. WENT TO BED IN COALBIN. Connor's Burglar Found in Cellar, with a Large Load of Connor's Stock in Trade.

When Patrick J. Connors opened -his saloon at No. 112 Atlantic avenue this morning he observed that some unwelcome visitor had visited his establishment, and that several bottles of his best whiskey and a few dollars in cash had disappeared. Policeman Lynch of the Amity Street Station was passing the saloon when Connors made the unpleasant discovery. He called in the policeman, who suggested that they search the premises.

They went into the cellar, where there was an unusually strong odor of whiskey. Presently they heard somebody remark "Hic," but not with that refined tone that would indicate that the educated. tion was intended to be a Latin quotation. The two mored to one of the coal bins. and when they struck a light perceived the form of a young man stretched out peacefully on the ruins of Connor's last winter's coal pile with a bottle of Connor's best whiskey beside him.

Lynch took the young man to the lockup, and there he said he was Alfred Whalen. That was about all the information regarding himself that he could recollect, and his address was not learned. Later he was arraigned before Magistrate Dooley in the Butler Street Court and sent to jail for examination July 6. NEW LOTS WELL A SUCCESS. Assistant Engineer Van Buren 1 Says It Will Increase Brooklyn Water Supply.

Test of the one well that has been sunk at New Lots station by the Brooklyn Department of Water Supply has demonstrated, according to Assistant Chief Engineer Robert Van Buren, the fact that it will pay the municipality to sink at least three other wells in that section. It is said that the well already sunk, which is a big one, will supply Brooklyn with something like a million and a half additional gallons of water a day. The New Lots section is at Fountain and Ne wLots avenues. The new well has been subjected to very trying test. A centrifugal pump was kept at work for a long time, pumping 000 gallons of water every hour, and after.

its best efforts succeeded only in reducing the water in the well nineteen inches. The five-inch pipe was driven through different strata until it reached a bed of Line clay, and directly beneath the blue clay, at the depth of 164 feet, a formation of Green Mountain, pebbles, somewhat larger than buckshot. from which the water immediately mounted to the surface. The supply of the old wells is not at all affected by the new one. This condition proves that there are beds of clay between the shallow wells, which are sunk at an average of 50 feet, and this deep well, which has a depth of 164 feet.

It would appear that while the shallow wells have a surface drainage, this deep well's source of supply is a watershed from a distance. TWENTY-TWO GRADUATES. Graduating Exercises of the Holy Name School Held Yesterday Afternoon. Graduation exercises of the Holy Name School, Brooklyn, were held yesterday afternoon in the basement of the Holy Name Church, Ninth and Prospect avenues. Twenty-two pupils were graduated, eight of whom received a sufficient percentage to admit them to the various high schools in Brooklyn.

Blackheads on the Pimples BOY CHOKED WITH- CANDY, BUT DOCTORS SAVE HIM Physicians at Eastern District Hospital Work for Two Hours. HAD ALMOST GIVEN UP HOPE. Sad Beginning of Fourth of July Celebration of Mrs.

Gregory's Three-Year-Old Child, Three David Gregory, whose parents live at No. 073 Gates avenue, had an escape to-day from death, which doctors in the Eastern District Hospital consider marvelous. The boy was taken by his mother a few days ago to remain on A visit to an aunt, who lives at Berry and South Sixth streets. He was to stay over Independence Day. The boy had a glorious time with his playmates.

He went to the front stoop this morning, some of his companions joined him. The child was given a piece of white candy known as French sweets. It was rather hard, and soon after the boy placed it in his mouth it slid down to his throat, and there it lodged. He began to choke, and rolled off the stoop to the sidewalk. Some men who were passing called the attention of the aunt to the child.

The aunt found the boy apparently dying. His face had turned purple. The woman, after frantic efforts to remove the candy, ran with him to the Eastern District Hospital. She implored Superintendent Wiegand to save the child. Mr.

Wiegand hastily moned House Surgeon Ruch, and also sent after other doctors connected with the institution, among them Dr. Duggan. Meanwhile, Dr. Ruch, being unable to extract the obstruction or shore it down into the child's stomach, pulled out the boy's tongue with forceps as far as it was possible, and then with the slight space in the children's throat oxygen was forced into the lungs. The boy's heart was kept stimulated all the time.

He had become very weak, and it seemed to be the general opinion that the child couldn't possibly recover. For nearly two hours the doctors remained at work on the little sufferer, and then they had the happy satisfaction of child's stomach. The boy was still unconfeeling the candy, slide down into the scious, and his pulse very weak. The doctors continued to work over him until his heart became stronger. Meanwhile, word of the mishap had been sent to Mrs.

Gregory at her home. She became greatly agitated, and lost no time in going to the hospital. She was in a hysterical condition when she got there, because she was under the impression that her child was dead. When she learned that the critical stage had passed she was on the verge of collapse. It required another half hour to fetch the child around to consciousness.

By that time Mrs. Greg.ory had regained her composure, and then, after thanking the doctors profusely, she kissed and caressed her child again' and again, and then took him home. DEATHS IN BROOKLYN. Following are the deaths in Brooklyn reported for the twenty-four. hours ending yesterday: Age.
