ALL SUFFOLK 3 PRESIDENT GRESSER AND DEMOCRATIC LEADERS OF QUEENS AT THE ANNUAL OUTING OF SECOND WARD DEMOCRATIC CLUB, AT WITZEL'S POINT VIEW GROVE YESTERDAY. RICHMOND HILL WILL STILL GET SERVICE RICHMOND HILL, Aug.

of the Richmond Hill and Morris Park sections of Queens have become anxious about what improvements and changes the Long Island Railroad Company contemplates making in that gection. Among the matters on which they desire enlightenment is the request for the establishment of a station at Jamaica avenue, where the Rockaway Beach line crosses the avenue above grade. This is about midway between the former villages of Richmond Hill and Jamaica and right in the centre of a district that is growing very rapidly. Another question is what is to become of the present station at Richmond Hiil when the Montauk division is turned into a freight line. Richmond Hill is touched only by this line, and the residents have been anxious to know whether they will have to walk the mile distance to the Maple Grove station.

The residents of Clarenceville on the Atlantic avenue line have been clamoring for a station for some time. There is only a shelter booth at this point, which has done service ever since the stopping place was established, and when not more than a dozen passengers got on or off there in a day. Now the number has increased to several hundred, One of the officials of the Long Island Railroad was interviewed yesterday on these matters. In reference to establishing a station at Jamaica avenue on the Rockaway Beach line he said: "This proposition has been received very favorably by the Long Island management. We are inclined grant the quest of the residents of this district for this station provided we will be allowed to abandon the station at Brooklyn Hills, a distance of 1,200 feet from the point where the new station is asked for.

The trolley cars pass the point on Jamaica avenue. and we believe a station at that point would accommodate a great many. "This proposition will probably be taken up when we electrify the Rockaway Beach line, which will be within the preslent When, year." asked about the future of the Richmond Hill station, the same official replied: will not abandon the station at Richmond Hill. It would discommode too many people. What we will do will be to send a certain number of electrical trains from Jamaica around by way of Richmond Hill and they will go over the Montauk division as far as Glendale station, where they will be switched onto Glendale cutoff.

We will not estiblish this service until the service over the Montauk division is changed. "The people of Clarenceville," continued the official, "will have to wait until. it has been decided what the character of the improvement on the Atlantic avenue division is to be when the grade crossIngs are eliminated. We do not know at this time whether the change will elevate or depress the tracks. To eliminate the crossings along this line will cost a great deal of money and we have decided not one cent shall be spent along this line for new stations until the grade is changed.

It is possible that this change will not be made for several years. We are sorry for the residents who use the Clarenceville I station, but we can do nothing to help them." Gates at Dangerous Crossings. FAR ROCKAWAY, Aug. are being erected by the Long Isiand Railroad at the Seaview and Hollywood crossings in this place. For more than years the residents of that gection had been asking the company to the gates, and only recently the matter, was brought the attention of the Public Service Commission for the First District.

The commission ordered the company to station flagmen at the crossings and this was done last June 1. The company Is bullding the gates of its own accord. During this time of the year the Seaview and Hollywood crossings are among the most dangerous in Far Rockaway. all the vehicles going to and coming from Wave Crest passing over them. Was Dared and Jumped Overboard.

RIVERHEAD. Nug. a boy Robert Bess, aged 10, colored, jumped overboard into the Peconte River yesterday afternoon. The water was over the little fellow's head, and he had a pretty close call from being drowned. Orville Cheshire, a larger boy, ran to his assistance and just as Robert was going down for the third time Cheshire pulled him out.

REV. FATHER LOGUE EXPLAINS BIBLE TALK To the Editor of the Brooklyn Times: SIR: At the school meeting held in the High School building, Freeport, on Tuesday evening, the writer was desirous of placing the oft district objection manner in before, electors, which the Board of Education look upon religious exercises which have been conducted for the past six years in the schools, and to devise some means by which this disagreeableness might be adjusted for the best interest of all. Their ignorance of the State law, which states religious exercises, including the reading of the Bible, singing hymns, should not be permitted during regular school hours, was clearly evidenced at the meeting. Their action in this matter has been unjust and unfair to us. I desire to correct what was printed in large print headlines in the Brooklyn Times that I am opposed to the reading of the Bible in the school.

I am not opposed, nor have I ever expressed any opposition, but I am opposed: First--To having the consciences of our children violated by religious exercises, such as the baccalaureate sermons given exclusively by sectarian ministers, because a distinctly sectarian character is imparted to the system of public education by the fact of the baccalaureate sermon preached in churches of various denominations. This is in open deflance of both the letter and spirit of the laws of every State. These have been oscillating each year for the past seven in churches to which only members of the Board of Education belong, casting aside the courtesy of an invitation to the other ministers of the village. Second--To having our children taught the Lord's Prayer different from the original, as we desire it should be taught. Third To having the International Sunday School lesson announced in the school; also the announcement of the meetings of the Epworth League and Christian Endeavor.

Fourth--To having ministers address the children in the school. Fifth -To the singing of hymns. -We have tenets and the sooner the of Education in Freerecognize the better for the Board, community. It is only by mutual goodfellowship, which I have been trying to foster since my advent to the village, that and harmony among all sects will flourish. This can only be accomplishment by the non-infringement of the rights of others.

Yours, REV. CHARLES A. LOGUE. August 5, 1909. THE DEVIL BUSY IN SUMMER.

HEMPSTEAD, Aug. Rev. W. H. Burgwin and family left Monday for their annual visit to Jamesport, where they will rusticate until September.

Mr. Burgwin will keep the parsonage on Washington street open and will be accessible in case of necessity to his people. Mr. Burgwin believes in keeping the churches open on Sundays. "The devil is las active in summer as in winter," says the young pastor, hence he has arranged for the pulpit of his church to be occupied on Sunday, August 8, by the Rev.

Dr. Alfred Hodgetts, of Manhattan, who is spending the summer at Sea Cliff. On Sunday, August 15, the Rev. D. Everitt Lyon will preach.

The remaining Sundays August will be union services of the M. congregation at the Baptist Church on Main street, until September, when the Rev. Mr. Burgwin returns to Hempstead. Sewerage Systems Installed.

SAYVILLE, Aug. K. Vanderbilt 1415 just installed a complete sewer system throughout Idle Hour. This renovation was instigated by a recent order on the part of the town authorities requirIng that all places bordering on Great South Bay and Great River discontinue running sewage into those public waters, requiring receptacles to be built on their respective estates for all sewer substance. W.

K. Vanderbilt, B. Cutting, Messrs. Hubbs, White and the South Side Club have complied with these sanitary regulations. Improving Sayville Station.

Harmony Plans Were Discussed, and to Cap Climax Gresser Announced His Desire Again for Borough Presidency--Some Watched the Games. LONG ISLAND CITY, Aug. one of the largest throngs that ever attended an outing held under its auspices and with features that will make it memorable in the history of the party in Queens, the annual pilgrimage of the Second Ward Democratic Club to Witzel's Point View Grove at College Point was made yesterday.

Every big and little leader of the party was present. Politics were played in the open and in a manner never before seen, from the time the barges left the Borden avenue dock in Long Island City until they reached the same point on the return in the evening. Usually it is plain, ordinary member who holds the centre of the stage on these occasions, while the leaders take a back seat and look on. But yesterday the leaders were the conspicuous personages as they went about the grounds, and the members almost forgot the athletic games and other features which were distributed about under the trees and looked on at the big party men. Nearly the whole day was spent in a discussion of harmony plans among the men who have been preparing for months to lead rival factions at the a September primaries.

When all had been said and done the positive announcement was made that President Gresser was in the field for renomination. Lower Long Island City was stirred up about 10 o'clock in the morning, when marching from all directions, headed by bands, began passing the Borough Hall on Jackson avenue, to be reviewed by the officials there. Each club was headed by a band and the marching continued for nearly an hour. As fast as the clubs been reviewed they moved to the foot of Borden avenue, where they went aboard the barges A. M.

Church and Empire. The biggest surprise of the day came just about the time the barges were ready to be headed up stream. Then Joseph Cassidy, who is opposing the faction which was in charge of the outing, appeared on the dock, surrounded by some of lieutenants, among the number beang his brothers, John and James Cassidy, and Senator Luke A. Keenan, Surrogate Danie Noble, Alderman John J. Hogan, Henry Merthens, William L.

Woodill, Magistrate Luke J. Connorton and exSheriff Joseph Meyerrose. It then became known that on the previous evening Mr. Cassidy had purchased 100 tickets for the outing, paying $350 for them, and had distributed them among his followers. At least that many Cassidy men had slipped aboard the barges, but their presence had not be-n particularly noted.

But there was a good-sized sensation when Mr. Cassidy climbed up the gangway and said "Howd'ye" to the committee receiving tickets. The bodyguard that had come down with Mr. Cassidy followed him on board and they hunted a cool corner on the afterdeck and remained there untill the barges reached the grove. It took two hours for the barges to be towed up the East River.

In the meantime things were happening up at Point View Grove. There was a procession automobiles arriving. First came Sheriff Herbert S. Harvey, the county leader, and Patrick J. Mara.

A short while afterward came former Borough President Joseph Bermel and with him State Senator Harte. He was followed by Martin Mager, who came with several friends. Then came Magistrate Morris Connelly and a big bodyguard of Corona Democrats. The news that Mr. Cassidy was coming up on the boat reached the grove with the arrival of his automobile about an hour before the landing made.

It was the sensation of the hour and everybody discussed it. President Gresser, with the faithfu! John M. Gragen, was the first to leave the barges, when they were made fast to the dock. Mr. Cassidy and his close friends waited until nearly everyone had left and then they appeared on the dock smiling and bowing.

Mr. Cassidy knew he was making a sensation and he seemed to enjoy it. There was too much suppressed excitement for uproarous applause, and the only outbreak came just as the dining hall had been filled for first meal of the day. President Gresser had gone in and taken the seat of honor reserved for him at the head of the guests' table. There was another seat of honor had been reserved for Henry Walters, president of the club that outing.

But with the arrival of Mr. Caseidy, plans had been changed and the seat intended for Mr. Walters was assigned to him. He came in Mr. Gresser was seated, and shortly walked after up to where he was to sit.

As he did so, resident Gresser got up and shook hands with him. The crowd saw the two rivals clasp hands and cheered for a minute or 80. Then the meal one "What topic of conversation proceeded. at But the there ta- bles, does this all mean?" Grouped close to the two conspicuous men were most of the borough leaders. The absentees were Sheriff Harvey, PatFeltier the Mara and dinner Joseph the leaders Bermel.

went Into the park and from that time until the last meal they talked over matters. The only man who kept himself aloof was Patrick J. Mara, Throughout the day he was as mum as an oyster, and not one word of comment escaped him. What he was thinking and planning no one seemed to know. Mr.

Cassidy was asked, here?" "Why are you "I am here because I am a Democrat," was his reply. "Being a Democrat 1 think that it is perfectly proper for me to be here. I have with me the men whom I appointed on a harmony committee several days ago. I have brought them along so that if there are any conferences on the proposition of harmony I will represented. For the rest you can draw your own conclusions." surrogate Daniel Noble, Cassidy's chics lieutenant said: "We mean just what say when we declare we for harmony.

We are ready to consult with those who want to talk this way." This same sentiment was endorsed by Senetor Keenan. The members of the Harmony Committee appointed hanthe Second Ward Club were all on A proposition to get the Cassidy Committee and the Ward Committee together in an informal manner was made, but this was County Chairman Harvey, who said: "The committee appointed by the Sec- IS CATHERINE DUGGAN DEAD" ONCE MORE? WOMAN WANTED IN SURROGATE PROCEEDINGS HAS AGAIN DISAPPEARED. Twice She Has Been Declared gally Dead and Has Come Back to Dispute the Court's RulingOfficial Search for Her Now in Progress-Large Estate Involved. LONG ISLAND CITY, Aug. Catherine Duggan dead again? That is the question that is being asked in the office of Attorney John B.

Merrill in Long Island City. She has twice been declared legally dead and her supremains were interred in a plot in Calvary Cemetery. But after each such declaration of her death Mrs. Duggan has appeared very much alive and demanded her rights. Mrs.

Duggan formerly lived on Vernon avenue, in Long Island City, and was the wife of an engineer on the Long Island Railroad. He was killed while at work in the yards at Long Island City. He left an estate consisting of money in the banks and insurance policies and a beneft fund due from the Long Island Railroad. Soon after his death proceedings were started to settle the estate, and then Mrs. Duggan disappeared.

She was 50 long that the courts adjudged her dead. Last winter it was supposed she had frozen to death, but after the funeral services had been held and several months had elapsed Mrs. Duggan again appeared at the office of her attorney. She then said she wanted her money and she said she was going to stay by and see that she got it. Mr.

Merrill made Miss Ella Boone, his confidential stenographer, a special guardian, of Mrs. Duggan to see that she get away before the case was settled. Miss Boone has been holding communications with the lady up to two weeks ago. Lately Mrs. Duggan has been working at the Hotel Imperial, in Manhattan.

Last week Mrs. Duggan was needed to sign papers 80 that the proceedings in the Queens Surrogate's Court could be continued. They were prepared and a clerk was despatched to the Hotel Imperial to see Mrs. Duggan. Then it was found that she had disappeared.

Since that time three process servers and Miss Boone have been making diligent search for the old lady. She had disappeared as completely as if the earth had swallowed her up. No one remembers exactly when she did disappear and she said nothing to give a clue to where she was going. Mr. Merrill will the search until he finds her.

Very important are the actions which are dependent on pearance. They affect not only relaher. aptives, but substantial business men. ond Ward Club represents only a section of the borough. The whole county Is represented by the County Committee.

The committee appointed by Mr. Cassidy represents his organization throughout the county. The County Committee could not be bound by any agreement reached between the committee from the Second Ward and Mr. Cassidy. The only committee to represent the county must be appointed by the County, Committee." Leader Harvey then asked if such a committee representing the county would be appointed.

To this he replied he did not know. In this situation affairs were left when the time for supper came. But just then the friends President Gresser spread abroad the announcement that he was a candidate for and he would make a fight for the honor. President Gresser therefore emerged from the proceedings of day as the real live issue in the campaign at the present time. While the leaders were busy talking polltics, the club members witnessed a programme of athletic games under the direction of Frank H.

Gaynor for Mayor. At a meeting of his club held at Long Island City last night resolutions were unanimously adopted demanding the nomination of the Brooklyn jurist. The resolutions passed declared that it is the duty of the Democratic City Convention to nominate ag its candidate the strongest and most representative man, so that the victory in the coming city election may be so decisive as. to encourage the Democracy of the State that Judge Gaynor combines leadership, character and reputation which would rally to his support the great mass of the people with whoge wants he has always sympathized, and that he has taken an active and effective every move- ment calculated to better transit secure" facilities for the people of the city, believed that Mr. Cassidy will mate' the nomination of Judge Gaynor an issue in the primary fight which he will lead in Queens.

-WATER WAGON FOR SCAVENGER PURPOSE. Address Box 32, FLORAL PARK, N. Y. LEAVES SONS LITTLE, CALLS THEM SELFISH JAMAICA, Aug Elizabeth P. Johnston, late of Jamaica, whose will was filed for probate yesterday, cuts off her two song with only $25 each, declaring in the will that they had little consideration for her, and were always in pursuit of their own selfish interests.

Mrs. Johnston died on July 14 last. With the exception of the bequests to the sons, all the estate of the testator, both real and personal, is left to Mrs. Johnston's daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth P.

Kellow, of 144 Liberty avenue. Mrs. Kellow is designated as executrix. Two hundred dollars is the estimated value of the personal property. The real property is not valued in the will, but it said to be worth many thousand dollars.

After asking that all her debts and funeral expenses be paid the decedent requests that her son, James A. Johnston, of Albany, be given $25. In explanation she says: "This amount I decide to be all that he is entitled to out of my estate in view of fact that his conduct toward me in the conduct of my business, in which he was a partner with me, shows that he is fully able to provide for himself and family. He has shown plainly that he had very little consideration for me or for my rights in the pursuit of his own selfish interests. 1 bequeath to my son, George S.

Johnston, of Port Washington, L. the sum of $25 for the same reasons that I have given for the legacy to my son James, and also for the reason that he is better provided for than any of my children." Mrs. Johnston directs that all the rest and residue of her property, wheresoever situated, being given to the executrix, Mrs. Kellow, giving the latter the authority to collect rents and the profits of the business, the Jamaica Slate RoofIng Company, and to invest the proceeds in bond or mortgage or other form of security authorized by law for such investments. The daughter is to have the net income, and, in case her death, the principal is to paid to her children, share and share alike.

The will is dated February 19, 1905. It was signed in the presence of Dr. Philip M. Wood and Robert McC. Robinson, both of Jamaica.

SPRINGFIELD, Aug. Presbyterian Sabbath School held Its annual outing with the Cedar Manor Branch of the school on Wednesday and 625 persons patronized the outing at Long Beach. TO BRING NAME OF QUEENS TO THE FRONT JAMAICA, Aug. is a movement on foot in Queens to arrange some system by which the charms of Queens place for homes will be brought forcibly to the minds of the thousands of strangers who, it is expected, will visit Newl York City during the Hudson-Fulton celebration. Men prominent in the affairs of the borough realize that there will never be a better time than during the celebration to attract visitors to Queens, provided some new plan can be conceived to call their attention to this borough.

The persons who would profit most largely in a financial way by bringing many visitors to Queens would be the real estate dealers, and it is expected that the matter in question will be taken up at the next meeting of the Queens Borough Real Estate Exchange, to be held during first week in September, and at that time it will be decided what is hest to be done to make Queens known. It is realized that while the two celebrations recently held in Queens--the Long Island subway celebration at Jamaica and the Queensboro Bridge celebration at Long Island City-attracted many persons, but comparatively few came from outside the city and Long Island. The Hudson-Fulton festivities, however, will bring visitors from all over this' and neighboring States, and Queens, could it draw thsir attention for a short time from do the celebration, might add materially to the number of its residents, it is felt. As yet the movement has not advanced sufficiently for the formation of any plans of how to attract this much-desired attention. It is realized that no celebration that could be gotten up in Jamaica could prove of enough interest to cause anyone to leave Manhattan to see it, but those who are most enthusiastic about the scheme to boom Queens believe that it an advertising campaign could be put in operation during the celebration and the name of Queens flaunted in the faces of the visitors no matter which way they turned, large returns might be expected from the investment.

If such a campaign be undertaken by the realty interests of the borough, each dealer will be asked to contribute, and then all would have to take an equal chance to profit by the increased business that would result. It is pointed out that a campaign of this kind was undertaken in Richmond Hill in the spring of last year, and that it promised well until there was dissension among the real estate; dealers of the place. It is argued that it every man interested in the growth ot Queens could be induced to contribute to a fund for the purpose named, cach man would be asked for a comparatively small sum, yet thousands of persons would be informed of the beauties of the borough and asked to visit it at least once while in New Those who have conceived the Idea believe that the Invitation would be accepted by hundreds of persons, who otherwise might return to their homes without ever knowing that there is such a place as Queers. Frank W. 9cutt, President of the Queens Borough Real Estate Exchange, told a Times reporter that he believes the idea to be a good one.

He believes that the Queens Borough representatives on the Celebration Committee should get together and arrange for bringing the name of Queens to the front during the celebration. The Real Estate Exchange may also take up the matter, he sald. Preachers to Visit Freeport. FREEPORT. Aug.

Trainman Denies That Any Other Than Himself Found Mrs. Schwab's Jewels. LONG ISLAND CITY, Aug. 6. William J.

Robelen denles the statements made in the intervlew published in the Brooklyn Times yesterday with Patrolman Louis Nussbaum, of the Far Rockaway station, in which he declared that he found the satchel belonging to Mrs. A. Schwab, of Manhattan, which contained jewels to the value of $30,000 and handed it over 1 to Robelen, the brakeman on the train, who has since been handsomely rewarded. The interview caused considerable comment among Robelen's associates. The young man has been a subject of much interest among railroad men since his good 1 fortune was made known.

When he was seen last night by a reporter for the Brooklyn Times and asked what he had to say to the statement of Nussbaum he replied: "The statment of Officer Nussbaum is not true. I never saw the policeman in my life that I know of. I found the satchel myself and the men who were working on the train with me will bear me out. That is all that I have to say about it." TROLLEY HITS CARRIAGE. Strikes Vehicle in Darkness, Throwing Four Occupants in Road.

WOODSIDE, Aug. by a trolley car while driving along the track of the New York and Queens County Railway at Kelly and Anderson avenues, late last night, Edward Dorf, 22 years old, of 349 Tenth avenue, together with Thomas Simmon, 35 years old, of 348 Tenth avenue, with the latter's two children, Cecilia, 5 years, and Mary, 3 years, all of Long Island City, were strewn along the trolley tracks. The colliding car was in charge of Motorman E. Schlegel, of 109 Fourth street, and Conductor Henry Kelly, of 133 Third street, Long Island City. The car was bound from Long Island City to Flushing by way of Corona, when in the darkness it overtook the carriage driving on the tracks ahead.

Motorman Schlegel rang his gong and attempted to stop his car. The carriage was thrown clear off the tracks and the occupants were scattered Into the roadway. They were all bruised add cut and were taken to St. John's Hospital, where they were attended by Dr. Halliman.

FOR BAYSHORE LIBRARY. BAYSHORE, Aug. bridge party was held at the Shrady Inn yesterday for the benefit of the Bayshore Free Library. The affair proved a notable society event, and a goodly sum was netted. The library managers hope to raise enough money before the close of the autumn to purchase an eligible site on which they will erect a building.

It is possible that some one of the wealthy land owners will donate the land as Elbert Carll Livingston did in Babylon. This would give the library a fine start. Accused by Pony Circus Man.
