the the the FRIDAY THE BROOKLYN DAILY TIMES MARCH 3, 1916 13 JORDAN LASHES LORD IN PLEA Gardner Case Goes to Jury Late This Afternoon. HASLETT LAWYER SCORED Wife of Chief Defendant Nods Approval of Attack. Vigorously assailing John B. Lord as a "crooked lawyer who should be drison from an honorable (lark Jordan made a long and im passioned. plea to the jury in the County Court this morning for the acquittal of his clients, former Senator Frank J.

Gardner and George IT. Decker, the nurse, o11 trial for conspiracy to defraud Samuel E. Haslett, the Remsen street millionaire "hermit." The defense elected not offer testimony. Judge May will male Qt charge lute this afternoon and semi the case to the jury. Mr.

Jordan said in his summing up: "Did these defendants conspire together to defraud and cheat S. E. Haslett? The Court has instructed that Decker's testimony before MagIstrate Kempner does not apply to Gardner. There is 110 thing in this statement except Gardner's admission that Haslett would sign any thing that vas presented to him. Was this a voluntary confession? No, it was extracted under duress.

"There is 110 evidence in this case to indicate that these two men attempted get cent from Haslett. "Did they execute a will? Dr. Deyo gay's they did. Dr. Deyo stated that Haslott was competent and 80 did all other witnesses indidate a like belief.

Their very act indicated this conviction. whatever they said here. SupDOSe Haslett did bequeth Gardner $35 000. here's a man with a million dollars. Why shouldn't he give his lawyer that amount? If he was competent he had a right to do so.

If he was uncompetent the bequest wouldn't be worth the paper it was written on. These men protected Haslett? If they had not entered the case Haslett would either be in seclusion not be alive. 'Gardner haul a better right to take a power of attorney than did John B. Lord. le saved the old man from those neas who tried to despoil him.

Lord's attempt to collect $10.000 from Haslett was the act of a crook, and a criminal. The man is a disgrace to the profession and should be driven the defendant occupied a front Mrs. May Josephine taranter, wife of seat during Mr. Jordan's address to the jury. She nodded with animation to her companions when Mr.

Jordan said. "The lawy Lord, had no claim against. Huslett on February 17, 1912, but when a short time later 2. commission of his property was appointed, when the old man could no more contest 81. claim than a dead man, Lord presented 8.

bill $10,000 for services alleged to have' been performed a long time prior to 1912. Wasn't that all attempt to rob, toot and cheat the estate of Samuel IC. Haslett? Was not that attempted grand larceny in the first degree? "Which of these two men would you rather trust--the man whose every act was honest or the man 'who attempted to cheat an incompetent? When Gardner took charge, Lord had the power of attorney under which he might have been able to loot Haslett's estate. This prosecution was started by Lord to get Gardner out and himself in again. Lord has testified SO himself." Judge May permitted the jury to decide for themselves whether receive the court charge this afternoon after the prosecution has summed up or wait until to-morrow.

They cleeted to complete the case to-day. The verdiet is expected some time in the early evening. Daughter to Get Share. Adopted by the Entwisles, Virginia Will Come in for Two thirds of Estate. Because two alleged wills of Frank L.

Entwisle, a known resident of Richmond Hill, have refused probate by Surrogate Noble, the widow. Mrs. Frances W. Entwisle, yesterday Aled a petition with Surrogate askIng to be granted letters administration in her husband's estate, which is valued at $2,700 in personal property. Soon after Mr.

Entwisle's death, a few months ago, there was filed for probate a will dated April 18, 189S, leaving his entire estate to his wife: Before it was probated Mrs. Entwisle fled with the Surrogate a petition asking him to admit to probate a will which she said her husband had made In 1908, but which was lost. In the latter will, he also left all his estate to her, she averred. The reason for applying for the probate of the later will, is said to have been the adoption by Mr. Entwisle, between the time he made his two wills, of a daughter, Virginia.

If the will of 1908 had been proved, it would have shown that Entwisle did not intend to leave anything to his adopted daughter. Surrogate Noble held that the existence of the second will had not been proved, but that, because Mrs. Entwisle and others said there was such A. will in existence, it precluded the admission to probate of what admittedly was not the Richmond Hill man's last testament. Therefore, probate was denied both instruments.

Mrs. Entwisle now asks for letters of administration. If they are granted, she will get but one-third of the estate, it is said, the remainder going to the adopted daughter. CLERK LANG SWORN IN. Woodside Man Fills Vaacncy In Second District.

A determined effort is 110 being made by many Fulton street business men to bring about the location on the Willoughby street subway line in the neighborhood of Lawrence Jay streets. If it is decided to build this station at once it can be built without much inconvenience or expense. A meeting was held yesterday at which representatives of A. J. Nutting, Balch, Price Oppenheim, Collins Christian C.

Ruckert, The National Cit yBank of Brooklyn, were present, The necessity for this station and the effect to surrounding property which would result from the omission of such a station is evident when it is considered that the only other stations 011 this route provided for the present plans, are the station at Flatbush and DeKalb avenues and the Montague street station. The latter commences west of Court street and extends to the westerly side of Clinton street. The distance between these two stations is about two-thirds of a mile, which is much greater than the distance between stations in undeveloped outlying sections. The Interborough bast the intervening Hoyt street station between the Nevins street and the Borough Hali stations, the distance between which is less than the distance between the De Kalb avenue and the Montague street stations of the Willoughby street line. The Fulton street elevated has two intermediate stations in this same section.

When it is considered that the Willoughby Street subway is the only suhway leading, to downtown Brooklyn Brooklyn which connects with the Fourth Avenue subway, and will carry practically all the Flatbush traffic which comes over the Brighton line, the great need of this proposed station ought to be evident to everybody. The Public Service Commission, up to the present time, does not appear to have taken any affirmative action towards providing for this station. This matter is of vital to every property owner and business man between Duffield street and Adams street, both on Fulton street and north and south of Fulton street, and. as it should have the concerted support of all who are affected. vou are earnestly requested to attend this meeting.

or. if unable to be present, to send a representative. INTER BORONGI. End of Centre of Station Station 10 to End of Centre of Station Station Borough to Host Street. 1225 feet 1693 fect Hoyt Street 10 Nevins Street.

Y. Dock Contract. The Public Service Commission today approved plans for the construetion of modern piers at Joralemon and Montague streets. The piers will constructed over the present subway at Joralemon street and over the new B. R.

T. subway at Montague street. and while they represent increased commercial advantages for the waterfront, will add protection to the subways, and thus obviate the construction of permanent concrete blankets over the tubes, which would cost over $100,000 each. Sig. Cedarstrom, real estate expert; Le Roy T.

Harkness, assistant counsel, and Travis 11. Whitney, secretary, conducted the egotiations, which lasted more than a year, and resulted offer that the Commission pay 000 for the necessary permanent casements at Clark street, that the city pay the Commission $112,500 for the fee, less permanent easements, at Joralemon and Montague streets, and that York Dock Company then lease these properties from the Dock Department. Early in the negotiations the Public Service Commission instituted condemnation proceedings for property, but later discontinued them. The Commissioners had been appointed were Senator Robert R. Lawson, Samuel S.

Voshell and Frank E. O'Reilly. The fact that Senator Lawson's attack on Secretary Whitney's candidacy for the Public Service Commission followed the Whitney recommendation that abolished the bawson condemnation commissionership is considered significant among the members of the Board.

Leader Again. Former Register Frederick Lundy is confident of coming back as district leader as a result of the reapportionment. He called at Democratic headquarters to-day with a party of election district captains of that part of the Sixteenth Assembly District which is below Avenue I and which will be in the new leaderless oceanfront district. He explained that he was only interested at present in talking over the situation. "Many of my old captains want me to come out for the leadership of the new Assembly District in which I will be placed after reapportionment," he said.

"I have not decided what I will do. We are just talking things over." The ocean front district. called the Third District on Leader Livingston's map, contains no Democratic leaders within its borders at present. It is expected that Thomas F. Wogan will move over the line, to avoid crowding out Senator.

William J. Heffernan, and that he will become Assembly District which will be laid out in the Bay Ridge end. This will leave room for two other leaders. Charles R. Ward, leader of the present Sixteenth, who will be swallowed by the followers of Timothy E.

Griffin if he remains in his present location, may move to one of several houses he owns at Sea Gate and attempt to hold the leadership of the district of which Coney Island is made a part. Owing to the contention between Ward and County Leader McCooey the Lundyites figure that the new Assembly District lines will be laid out with no regard for Ward's plans. The opposition to Ward is strongest around Coney Island, and the Lundyites figure that even if Ward and Lundy And themselves in the same district when the lines are drawn they will be able to push the new leader out and restore the former leader to power.
