covered in Three Booms Two Other Fires Follow. Fire Marshal Brophjr spent two hours last night Investigating the clroumctiinces attending a fire that was discovered at 5:30 o'clock in the hallway of tho four story brick tenement bouse at 319 Washington street It was plainly the work of an Incendiary and was the third a series of fires of the sanio character that had occurred In the house within the last three weeks. Ist night's blaze had been started In the hallway of the third floor, and It had gained tuch headway that it had scorched the wood wainscoting that lines the hall and stairs. The carpet lu the ball had been saturated with kerosene. The building is on the corner of Washington and Prospect streets, and is of the better class of tenement houses.

The ground floor Is occupied by a liquor store. Mrs. Tobin, the janltress, lives on the second floor; the third floor Is vacant, and Mr. and Mrs. Rauer, with their family, live on the top flat.

The hulls and stairs are carpeted, and each landing Is lighted by gas. Tho third floor was tenanted until three weeks ago, when the occupants, a French family, moved out. On the day of their flitting, after they had gone, fire was discovered in three of the vacant rooms. The flames were found time, and the fire was put out before damage was done. Up to that time the vacant ronnm had been open, but Mrs.

Tobin had keys fitted to tho and she believed that there would be no more trouble from But last Monday atteruoou there was another fire lu tne house. It was In the hallway this time, outside of the locked doors, and In a comer against the wainscoting. Mrs. Tobin found that the cuipet had been soaked with kerosene oil. No kerosene is used lu the building and the Janltress, satisfied thai someone was making a determined effort to burn up the building, reported her discovery to- the police of the Fulton street station.

The fire last night was In another corner of the hallway, and It was started just in the same way; tho carpet was saturated with oil and the flames had spread to the wainscoting near the dumbwaiter. If the outbreak had not been so speedily discovered It is plain that a serious fire would huve rcsulfed. The discovery was made by Sadie Tobin, the little daughter of the janltress. The child had been out on ail errand for Mrs. Rauer of the top floor, and was on her wjy back when she made tho discovery.

While she had been out Mrs. Tobin had lighted the hallway gas throughout tho house, and Sadie was surprised to And that the Jet 'the- third floor had bom turned out. But she went boldly up until she saw the glow of the burning woodwork. "Mamma," she tan downstairs screaming, "there Is fire again!" Mrs. Tobin, who had hardly slept a wink since Monday, was on the alert.

cue siieisnea nerseit that the child wa "'r Bn "isnpaa vi. nnu utiu.ut-u UUL till iiaiuej. That done, she reported the matter to a pollcemnn who was on post near by, and then the Fire Marshal was Bummone-1. "I have not an enemy, as far as I know, in the world, and I cannot tell who would do this dastardly thing," said Mrs. Tobin.

an Intelligent Englishwoman, in discussing the fires last night. There is not a person In the house who can sleep since this began." HAVEN'T GOT JOBS YET. Jannicky and Seunell Now Threaten Supreme Court Proceedings. No further developments had come to light yesterday In the efforts of the newly appointed Democrats, Charles. W.

Jannicky and Abraham Fennell to secure their clerkships In the Second District Municipal Court. Late Friday atterrroon tho new appointees walked into the Second District Court and made formal demands for the jobs now held by tho Republicans, John Heul-gln, Jr. and Edward L. Stryker, who claim their terms are unexpired. Justices Farrar and Frelfield received tho belligerent visitors in.

an anteroom and after listening to their plea, refusod to dismiss the present incumbents. After some spirited discussion Jannicky and Fennel departed saying they would carry their demands to the highest courts. "DOC" SWASEY IMPROVES. Well-Known Republican Leader May-Escape Serious Operation. Lewis M.

Swascy, Republican leader of the Seventeenth Assembly District, who has been suffering for some time from no abscess near the base of the brain, was reported resting comfortably at his residence 42 Herkimer street last night. It was thought for a time that an operation would be necessary, in order to ro-leive' the acute suffering of the Republican leader, but his condition last night shows such marked Improvement that this will probably be postponed.

NOT RIGHTFULLY IN RECORD. Governor Sulzer Had at First la-tended to Exile Brandt, but Later Changed His Mind. Albany. January IS Foullte E. Brandt, former valet of Mortimer L.

Schiff of New York, who was conditionally rmrdone.l yesterday by Governor Sulzer, contrib uted nis snare to make the case a closed incident. He voluntarily destroyed the confidential letter he had written to United States Senator Nelson of Minnesota, containing alleged slanderous statements, which ho publicly retracted yesterday and which formed part of the record that was before former Governor Dlx, when he denied Brandt's application for clemency. "Brandt denied to nie subsiuntir.ni. eveything In the letter." sabi Sulzer today. "Attorney General Curmody uuviseu me mat the letter was not right fully a part of the record and ought not to be in it.

"When Brandt talked with me at th, executive chamber Thursday night 1 told him of the op.nion given me by iua Attorney General, and returned the letter to him. 1 then left him witu Owen 1 Potter, my assistant legal udviser, for the purpose of putting in writing anything he had to say. Mr. Potter imornied me on Friday that Brandt had voluntarily destroyed the letter in his presence. "The letter, wnich was ou file In the executive enumber was a nmiuram sent to Senator Nelson.

The original was ucoiiuyea uy me Senator." The Oovcrnor said he first planned to exile Brandt from I.VUUHJ, UUI, changed his mind when the young mail pnvueire or "making good" before ret'irning to his parents in Sweden. "He told me," explained the Governor, "that he had had some trouble In his native country when a boy, and did not want to return at this time. Senator Nelson also requested that he bo permitted to remain here and volunteered to be sponsor for him." Senator. Nelson told Governor Sulzer that former Governor Lynn of Minnesota had agreed to aid Brandt. Governor Sulzer said he had received telegrams from various parts of the country congratulating him upon the "happy solution of the Brandt case." FRATERNTY MEN DANCE.

PHILHARMONIC TRIO GHfflS Concert at Academy Delights a Cultured Audience at the Lecture Hall of the Academy. The Philharmonic Trio concert last night had contrasts of quaintness and modern unrestraint, In a work by Joseph I-lavdn and one by Christian Binding, re spectively. These were a sola sonata for viollncello and piano, by Haydn, and i irio for piano, violin and 'cello, by Slnd lug. Beethoven's flat trio was a'so ou the programme, beginning it. This was played smoothly and melodiously; Beethoven's wealth of tunefulness shows out strongly all through the trio, making ll highly gratifying to the ear, when rendered as it was List night.

In the third movement, the Interlude suggesting bird notes alternating with folksong-like mel ody, makes this part of the score delight ful, and In the last movement the work of the Philharmonic Trio was specially ef fective, the two division: of the movement call for very different in eroreta- lion. Alexander Rlhm did excellent work in the mellow piano runs ho Introduced The Haydn- solo sonata for 'cello, with piano accompaniment, was played with rich nnd noble tone by Bedrlc'u Vasca. the new member of the trio ensemble this season. Mr. Vasca is a strong ensemble player, but he is a solols, first and last, and his work in the adagio was unusually wen susiaiueu.

it. suggests a IKlle Haydn's "Spirit Song." The first movement has an agreeable action In it, and the third was made even rollicking, last right under the hands of the 'cellist and Alexander Rlhm. who was the accompanist. The Haydn sonata was originally Sonata No. 3 for v'olln and doubl-o bass.

The entrance of the Slnd-ing trio on tho programme was like a breezy tune from the north. This Norwegian composer's trio was In tho nature of a bald, free sketch, very graceful and Inspiring. The announcing of the theme by the piano, and the taking It up by the other strings, tlmo after time, produced an effect like the rising of winds and wave', and (here was melody and descriptive sewing in the composition, which charmed the ear greatly. The three 'music an played finely, and the pianissimo parts In tho piano soore were noticeably clear end mellow. The violin and 'cello were clear and rich, respectively.

In their giving out There a.re three movements to this work, "Cor) Brio," "Romnnza," and "Allegro." Alarge audience attended the concert. LECTURE BY J. P. RINN. A lecture will be delivered to tho Brooklyn Philosophical Association nt the Long Island.

to 14.S LV, Liberty York Organization Formed at Informal Affair in New Lunchroom. The alumni of Boys High School held an informal dinner at the school last night. It was the fist to be held in the new lunch room unjer the immediate supervision of the faculty, and the young men declared that as caterers the school teachers had little to learn. The spread was held in the teachers' lunch room. was served on small tables, so that everyone might have a social time.

Dr. Sullivan was the only speaker, and he took but a few minutes of the two hours ievoted to the dinner. It was the idea of the dinner to get the ilumnl together, now that the new addition is completed and In full working irder, to look things over, admire the new equipment and glory In the fact that Boys gn is just twice as largo as it was last year, nnd then rciolve lo new zeal among the old graduates D. A. Boyle, of tho law department of the B.

R. presided and told the alumni "hat they could do something for their ilma mater. He thought that the time ripe for a renewal of old school ties, was his Idea that now the building has so many added conveniences It might be for the alumni to be run from the ichool. He suggested a large dinner to be given some time in the early spring, ir In the summer, to which every alumnus should be Invited. He then canlled the election of officers for the year, which resulted In the selection of F.

G. Lee, president; D. A. Boyle, vice presl-lcnl; Robert Raiman, secretary and treasurer, and H. Tausk, corresponding secretary.

Dr. Sullivan spoke of the good the ilumnl might do Ihe school nnd noted some of the difficulties In the way of a strong organization. After his remarks the. diners made a tour of the building. Among those present were: Dr.

Attaches of the Gates avenue police court are at a loss to explain what has occasioned a remarkable Increase In the number of arraignments this year. Mr. Flnkel, docket clerk, remarked yesterday, that up to Friday noon the number of arraignments since January 1, this year, was 872.

During the entire month of January last year the arraignments wore 297, In neither Instance are the sum-monses included In these figures. There has been no Increase in the slzs ot the court district. This lnoreane is surmising to many, In view of the steps tcen early In the present administration to reduce tht number ot so-called pslt case. i Representative Calder Asks For Commission to Probe Riker Plan. DREAM OF BROOKLYNITE, Scheme to Provide Better Climate for New York and Other Points May Be Looked Into.

Eagle Bureau, 60S Fourteenth Street. Washington. January is Based upon the plan of Carroll L. Riker of 575 Fifty-sixth street, Brooklyn, Representative William M. Calder today Introduced In the House a bill which calls for the creation of a Labrador Current and Gulf Stream Commission.

The undertaking at first glance sounds almost romantic. It Is no less a scheme than the conserving of the heat ot me Gulf Stream and ol diverting the great Labrador current, which now flows down past the Newfoundland banks, and brings with it such great masses of Ice as caused the destruction of the Tltaule last year. Mr. Culder's bill calls for the appointment of a commission to consist of an officer of the Navy and two other persons to bo appointed by the" President, who are to consider the feasibility of causing an obstruction to the Labrador Current, where It passes over the Grand Banks. Mr.

Rlker's plun contemplates preventing the encroachment of Icebergs and fog upon the trans-Atlantic steamship course, a general effect upon the climate of countries in tho Northern Hemisphere upou both sides of the At lantic and a possible effect upon fogs along the Atlantic coast of the United States, Canada and the British Isles. The sum of $100,000 is provided in the bill for the purposes of Investigation. The Riker plan provides for tho con struction of a huge jetty of land extend ing from the southeastern point of Newfoundland for a distance of two hundred miles into the ocean, tapering from a width of forty miles at the shore end t'. three at Its easterly extremity, and covering an area of more than one thousan 1 square miles, where the water now roll? hundreds of feet deep, This is not to be rtlled-ln land, according to the plan in Riker, but is to consist of sediment now carried by the ocean currents, whose de posit will be Inducted by a device which ue proposes to use. Riker's Plan Calls for Creation of a Great Sandbar.

Riker has a plan to create an enormous sandbar, principally by the action of ocean currents. He tays all that is necessary is to place an obstruction which will maintain a position a few inches nbove thu constantly rising surface of material that now is deposited alung tho bottom. For this purpose, he would stretch a great rope cable, saturated with asphaltum and weighed, which would have just enough tpccihc gravity to rest lightly upon the ocean bottom and have less speciile gravity than the sand deposit. lie would anchor it so that It would have free vertical movement, but could not be carried north or south. This deposlt-inriucer.

he believes, would cause the formation of an enormous sandbar, which would gradually rise to the surface of the ocean and prevent the encroachment of the Labra'tor current upon the gulf stream It Is admitted by the naval hydro-graphers and every other student of oceanography that it is the Labrador current which brings Into the trans-Atlantic lanes the Icebergs which are an annual summer menace to navigation. "This jetty, when completed," says Mr. Riker, "would be just south of the Virgin rocks and the east rocks and would seem to be but the resurrection of the Virgin Peninsula, apparently the original coastal formation thereabouts, at no very ancient period. The United States Government charts show an erosion or Increased depth over great aiv.is upon this site to have been one-third, in less than twnty years, equivalent to the removal of a dam the height of a man reaching from New York to Chicago, through which clear space ice cold water is pouring along our coast where none passed twenty years previously, and which Is increasing year by year. If this Is not checked the climatic conditions along our coast will continually grow worse.

"The increasing coldness of the waters In and about New York harbor and the more frequent end denser fogs thereabout, of which there Is no question, are corroborative proof that this Arctic flood Is actually upon us, and at tho rate of Increase shown by the government reports referred to In detail in 'Power and Control ot the Gulf Stream' fifty years will convert our. coast into a semi-Labrador. This of Itself Is a serious matter and of sufficient importance to warrant the Investigation aslced for. "The Immediate effect of the when constructed will be to eomn'etely separate the Gulf stream and the Labra dor current, conducting them to the deep waters of the Atlantic at Its end. A short distance beyond, the ice-cold and saline bottom waters of the Labrador current w'll sink to the bottom of the ocean, from two to three miles deep, and pass under the Gulf stream southward.

The lighter, fresher lee-laden surface of this current, pursuing the tendency of all light matter, will take an easterly course, paralleling the Gulf stream on the north until Its Ice Is melted and its fresher water has mixed with tho waters of the ocean." MOTOR TIITJCK BAMS TROLLEY. There was a collision between a motor truck, owned by Schultz Co. of Tenth avenue, Manhattan, and car No. 207 of the new line, known as the Brooklyn and Hudson River Railroad, which runs across the Manhattan The truck rammed the car at the crossing at Jay street and Myrtle avenue, but luckily none of the passengers were injured. The two vehicles were badly damaged and many windows of the car were broken.
