"Mr. Finkelsteln is a member of the Talmud Torah, the Roumanian Home for the Aged and Infirm, the Congregation Beth Jacob Ajshe Sholom, of Brooklyn; president of time she passed the bed of her uncle and saw him sleeping there. Shortly after the stabbing two policemen went to the horns of Feschio and found him in bed. Only one of these testified at the trial, and he said that on the night in question it was raining, and that while he fcind Feschio in bed. be also found his coat was wet.

He could not remember whether Feschio's shoes were also wet. Owing to the failure of the second officer to take the stand, Bennett pressed the point that his testimony should be construed by the jury as favorable to Feschio.

Alderman Haubert characterized the agitation as "an attempt to mislead Delaney as to the wishes of the people of the nection." Route 6S, as explained by Delaney, is the continuation of the subway now terminating at Bushwick avenue and Meserole street, lt will continue through Bushwick avenue to McKib-Mn street. A station will be located at McKibbin street and White street, where the road will emerge from the ground, running upon -an structure through the Bushwick section.

Commissioner Delaney declared that he is moving cautiously in obtaining the road. He declared that the erection of an elevated line along the right-of-way will compel the abolition of the steim road now operated by the company for hauling freight. "A new plan now under Lr I $00 Abraham 71. 7tepub do it. And your backwardness will result, not in shutting the new ontt out, but in 'shutting yourselves In." Tha Archer place opening was discussed pro and con, but no definite decision was reached.

Mr. Adikes. favoring the said it would develop the trade of the community. Objection was raised on the ground that Archer place property owners would have to bear the bulk of the assessment. Last night's meeting was called for a two-fold purpose, to discuss the Archer place opening, and the library situation In Jamaica.

The suggestion that King Manor, In King Bark, be used to house the Jamaica branch, of Queens Borough Public Library has aroused much opposition. Speaking on the matter, John H. Leich. president of the board of trustees of the Queens Borough Library, said the trustees do not wish to antagonize the residents of Jamaica by acquiring a building they do not wish to give up for the library's use. but made a strong plea that they find some other place for the which must vacate its present quarters next After scouting the entire community.

Mr. Leich said, he found that King Manor -was the only suitable and available building. Both Park Commissioner Benninger and Mayor 'Hylan approve the proposal to have the library transferred there. If the Jamaica people object, he added, it is up to them to find a substitute building. That the practically the only landmark left in Jamaica." should be preserved as a place of historic interest, was the sentiment of those who opposed the transfer.

Through representatives, the King Manor Association, which controls the mansion: Rufus King Chapter the Women's Club. Jamaica Musical Society and. Jamaica Village Society, voiced their objection. No one present spoke in favor of the idea. Wlliam Hirsch, -a resfiient of Jamaica for three years, last night told a gathering of veteran Jamaicaltea.

"Who had been indicted' for assault in the first degree. The Jurors agreed on their verdict after two hours of deliberation following a trial that had fasted two days. Feschio was so happy over the outcome of the case that he wept and could not rise to thank the jurors as is the custom with Italians when a verdict ha been returned in thir fa-or. The complainant against Feschio was David Iaisman. of hZ Grafton street, and the trouble between the pair is said ti have been the outgrowth of a feud between Jewish and Italian coal dealers for a monopoly of the trade in the neighborhood.

According to Lalsman's complaint, on the morning of Aug. S. while he was on his way home, be was set upon by Feschio and stabbed twice in the side with a sttlftto. Through his conn set John S. Bennett.

Feschio contended that he was home in bed at the time of the attack upon Laisman. To corroborate this contention Bennett put on a number of witnesses, among whom was the crippled niece of Feschio. who makes her home with him.
