CONROY, Secretary, COMMITTEE SELECTS SITE FOR THE CENTRAL LIBRARY New Building Will be on the Eastern Parkway. WHY THE PLAZA WAS Commissioners File Repert of Their Findings--New Entrance to the Park Also Advised. The commission, consisting of Mayor McClellan, Borough President Littleton and Park Commissioner Kennedy, in selecting the triangular plot of ground adjoining the Prospect Park Reversoir, yesterday for a site of a central building for the Brooklyn Public Library, filed the following memorandum: "The committee for the selection of site for the Brooklyn Central Library had but one duty to do- either to abandon the authority confered upon them by Chapter 553 of the Laws of 1905, or else act under it and select the site within the limits fixed by that net. The consideration of the site on the Park Plaza having been had by eminent and technical experts, their report was substantially a mendation to committee for the adoption of this Park, Plaza site. These experts were Prof.

Hamlin of Columbia Untversity, selected by the library trustees; Frederick Law Olmstead, employed by the Brooklyn League, the league being opposed to the site; and Messrs. Carrere and Hastings, employed by the committee, and it is remarkable that all three should have concurred in the general result. "In addition to the unanimity of opinion that existed as to the selection of this particular site, the committee were impressed with the splendid opportunity which presented Itself of committing the city to the policy of a general artistic and broad treatment of the entire Park Plaza at the entrance to Prospect Park, which up to date has been wholly out of keeping with perhaps the best park in this section of the country, therefore the committee had in mind and were constrained in the selection of this site by the suggestion made by Messrs. Carrere and Hastings, and by the arguments which had been presented by those in favor of the adoption of this site. "In accordance with these recommendations the committee believe that steps should be taken forthwith by the park nuthorities to acquire the land on the corner of Union street, Plaza, Ninth avenue and President street.

It will be noted that the action this day, taken tends to carry out the suggestions made by Olmstead and Vaux, the landscape architects of Prospect Park forty years ago, and the recommendations of the Rev. Richard Storrs and his committee in 1889 for the reservation of the plot of ground now known as Institute Park as a site for buildings of an educational character. Indeed it seems to be a fulfillment the prophecy made by these far publicspirited citizens. "Pursuant to the authority rested in 118 by virtue of chapter 55 of the laws of 1905, we hereby designate and set apart as a site for the Brooklyn Public Library that portion of the land bounded by Eastof Flatbush avenue lying ern Parkway, avenue, town Washineton, between Prospect Hill reservoir Enstern parkway, Flatbush avenue and Prospect, "George Park B.

HIS BROTHERS ARE PRIESTS. To Take New Parish on Date Set for Silver Jubilee of Former Reetor, The Rev. James Hanselman, rector of the Cuhrch of the Holy Family, has been ceed his cousin, the late N. Wagappointed rector of St. Barbara's, to suener, whose panegyire be delivered at the departed rector's funeral recently.

An unusual circumstance is connected with this appointment and greatly increases the interest surrounding it. Had the late Fr. Wagner lived until Dee. 18 he would have celebrated the silver jubilee of his ordination. The memory of this fact has intensified the grief of the ishioners -of St.

Barbara's as the day set for the jubilee celebration has drawn near. Bishop McDonnell, affected by the sorrow of the parishioners, recently decided that he would endeavor to soften the grief of the people by appointing Fr. Wagner's cousin to take charge of the parist on the day so fondly anticipated in St Barbara's. The Rev James Rauselman belongs to a most notable family. Four of his brothers became priests and two of his sisters have entered the convent.

The Rev. George Hauselman died some years ago. The Rev. Joseph Hauselman is rector of Holy Cross College, Worcester, Mass. The Rer.

John Hauselman is rector of St. Benedict's and the Rev. Thomas Hauselman is rector of the Church of the Presentation, Jamaica. The Misses Mary and Margaret Hauselman are sisters. The newly appointed rector of St.

Barbara's was born in 1852 in the Holy Trinity parish, wbere he later attended the parochial school. On being graduated from school he entered St. Vincent's College. Westmoreland Counts, Pa. He later entered St.

Francis Xavier's in Manhattan, from which he WAR graduted with the degree of A. B. He then became seminarian at the Grande Seminaire in Montreal and was ordained in the Cathedral at Montreal by Archbishop Fabre. It is interesting to note that Father Wagner made his studies in the very same institutions as did Father Hanselman and was ordained by the same prelate. Coming to Brooklyn the young priest was sent as curate to the Church of the Holy Trinity and remained there for three years and a half, when he was promoted to the rectors' of Riverhead, L.

I. After two years Father. Hanselman was made founder rector of ap arish in South Brooklyn, which was named the Holy Family, a striking coincidence, as it proved to be later in view of the inclination of so many of the Houselmans for the religious state. At Thirteenth street and Fourth avenue Father Hanselman erected a church and adjacent to it he built a rectory and school and shortly afterwards a convent for the residence of the Sisters. In St.

Barbarn's Father Hanselman will soon have to erect a large and costly church, for the parish is growing rapidly. A school will probably be added to this. SPEAKERSHIP FIGHT HOT. Intervention of Governor Might Result in Dark Horse Beating Both Merritt and Rogers. The contest for the Speakership of the next State Assembly has 8 resolved itself into a merry war with Edwin A.

Merritt, of St. Lawrence, and James T. Rogers, of Broome, the leading factors. State Chairman Odell's support of Merritt has given him a handicap over Rogers in the opinion of many, but Rogers has by 110 means given up the fight. Both say they will go into the caucus determined to win and their friends say they will win or lose with them.

Governor Higgins holds the key to the situation. He has made a careful canvass of the qualifications of the various candidates and there are those who predict a dark horse as a winner, in view of the belief that Governor Higgins does not look with particular favor upon either Merritt or Rogers. The Governor is in Manhattan to-day on a Christmas shopping tour. So are Messrs. Merritt and Rogers The Int ter is confined to his room at the Hotel Seville, suffering from a slight indisposition.

EXAMINATION WAIVED, EXAMINATION WAIVED, Chanler waived examination in street court on a charge of engaging in the lottery polley business and was held for the Grand Jury. Chanler was arrested at a stable at No. 17 Prince street.

SCHOOLTEACHER LOSES $30, BOY PUPIL IS ARRESTED Police Find Money in Michael Curley's Coat Lining. PURSE TAKEN FROM HER DESK. Miss Sullivan Asks to Have Case Pat Over Until After -Request Is Refused, Michael Curley, 10 years old, of No. 279 South First street, was arrested at his home, to-day, by Detective Meehan and Collins, of the Bedford avenue station, on charge of grand larceny. He was accused of having robbed Miss Dora Sullivan, a teacher in Public School No.

37, on South Fourth street, near Berry street, of $30. The boy is pupil in Miss Sullivan's class. Yesterday ofternoon, just before the class dismissal, the teacher stepped out of the room. During her absence Curley, it was alleged, went to the desk and took the money. Miss Sullivan didn't miss the money until after the dismissal of the class.

Failing to obtain any trace of it or a chute to the thief, she went to the Bedford Avenue Police Station and complained to Captain Pinkerton. The detectives got to work and they were led to suspect Curley of the theft. They found him at his home. In the boy's overcoat was found $30 neatly tucked underneath the lining. Miss Sullivan identified the money as hers.

The boy was taken to the police station, and then sent to the shelter of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. Miss Sullivan, after the boy's arrest, felt sorry for him, and she asked the police if she could refrain from prosecuting him, at least, until after the holidays. She had no desire, she said, to mar boy's Christmas or give his parents anxiety: She was told she would have to tell her story to the Children's Court. FLAHERTY ON M.O.L. DEALS (Continued from First Page.) office nor to rote any particular, set of men into office.

There is no special political end to be attended to or sought, for as I view the result of my election, and the same thing applies to every other man elected to office in Brooklyn. The people went to the polls seeking for a change. for their own welfare. "The main consideration from my point is solely the development of Brooklyn, That is what the people of Brooklyn expect from me. That is what I will try to do for them.

They are not cencerned in the future of particular political organization, nor in any political faction. That is the fact, no matter what those who are interested in political organizations and political factions may say about it. The future development Brooklyn is the thing that concerns them, and I for one will sacrifice anything and everything to that." When asked about the statement that Sheriff-elect Flaherty had withdrawn from his intention to appoint James Dunne as under sheriff, Mr. Coler said: "All that I care to say about that subject is this: Mr. Dunne never sought the appointment.

I know that to be the fact. He did not ask for the place. He was one of the finest men in the borough for the place of Under Sheriff, and he is. an able man for almost any office in the local government." "It has been suggested that you will now appoint Mr. Dunne under you 0.8 either Deputy Commissioner of Public Works or Superintendent of Public Buildings and Offices," das remarked, and to this Mr.

Coler made reply by saying: "You must excuse me from discussing prospective appointments to any definite places. But you can quote me as saying that if I can succeed in getting Mr. Dunno to take place under me I will be glad to have him, and I will do all that I can to induce him to accept place in my administration. He is one of the ablest men I know of in Brooklyn, and he is true to his friends and to his fellow-men. Such men as he deserve to be brought into publie life.

I repeat that I will he glad to have him with me, but I will not say in what capacity I hope to secure his services." Mr. Coler refused to discuss the reasons for Sheriff-elect Flaherty's deciding not to appoint Dunne as Under Sheriff, saying that he would not be brought into any argument or discussion that savored of factionalism either in the M. 0, L. or in any political organization. He that if others wished to indulge in that sort of thing it was their affair.

But he was not involved in any political or factional movement, and he did not propose to become so involved. In closing the Interview Mr. Coler said: "I am not interested in man's polltics. So long 88 a man stands for Brooklyn he is good enough for me." GUARANTEED CURE FOR PILES. Itching.
