Complaints which have come to the Times of late to the effect that many of the park benches around the plaza of Prospect Park had been removed was answered by Brooklyn Park Department to-day, they say that although then some of the seats might have been removed to make room for the fireworks display on the Fourth, they have since been returned to their former places. One of the letters received by the Times follows: To the Editor of the Brooklyn Times: SIR: For the past ten years I have been in the habit of sitting on one of the benches near Prospect Park Plaza, when the weather le warm, to rest and cool off before going to bed. There used to be park benches all around nd the entrance. This year you can almost count them on your fingers. Several evenings during this hot spell there were mothers with babies in their arms sitting all around the atone which circles the fountain in front of the Soldiers and Sailors' Memorial Arch.

1 any mother lost her balance she would probably meet a bad fate with her babe In the water. Along the whole of Eastern Parkway there are only half the number of benches there were formerly. The park itself has fewer. I write this (0 you because in the twelve years I have read your paper each day I have always admired the way you have looked after the public welfare of our city, and I hope you will publish this for the sake of the mothers and babies who have to sit on the edge of curbatones and fountain wall, for it looks as if the authorities have neglected this matter, or their memory failed them, and they forgot to return the benches Very sincerely, A CITIZEN. Secretary Thomas F.

Reilly was Interviewed at the Park Department to-day. He stated that he understood that the benches been removed from their places around the plaza at Prospect Park to make room for the pyrotechnical displays. He was also sure that they had been returned since that time to their former places. The changing might have taken a day or so, and during that time there might have been less than the usual number of benches at the plaza, he said. With regard to the removal of benches from along Eastern Parkway, he stated that these were distributed for that day only among parka where there were Fourth of July celebrations.

Since then, he says, they were all returned to their former places by the Park Department. Mr. Reilly stated that there were Just as many beriches on the plaza at Prospect Park this year AS there had been before. REAL ESTATE New Buildings. HENRY ST.

BATHS BUT SUP'T WOODY SAYS HOUSE WILL BE OPENED IN TIME. CONTRACT CALLS FOR AUG. 1 Ten Cents Likely to Be Charge for Bathing at Resort. What is really holding back the opening of the new Municipal Bathe at Coney Island until August 1, according to Superintendent of Public Offices and Buildings Howard L. Woody, is the failure of the locker doors to come along with the five carloads of lockers for the new buildIng.

Part of the shipment of lockers has arrived and other carloads are on the way, but the doors are missing, and the lockers, of course. will be of no use without the locks. There 19 little doubt about their arrival in time for the opening When the contract was let for the construction of the new baths, the agreement called for their completion in 150 working days That carries the date for their completion to August but the thine on now 1s August and it is not belleved that there will be any postponement. Everything, unless something unforeseen turns up, will be ready by the first of next month, when the baths will he thrown open with a great display of Joy, speechmaking and exhibitions of expert swimming. There has been much complaint by citizens to the borough officials about the 30-called postponement of dates for the opening of the baths, but, according to Borough President Steers.

there have been no postponements and the date decided upon is not late, according to the contract. The contract will have everything ready by the time called for in the papers and there can be no real ground for complaint if he does. It is the exception rather than the rule for contractors to have public work completed on time. There has been 010 complaint 89 yet about the nominal charge to be made for the use of the baths. It is thought all can afford to give up ten cents for the privileges afforded.

Each will be compelled to turn over twenty cents when handed a locker key and upon the return of the key halt of that sum will be returned. making the charge ten cents. If that system were not carried out, the officials say, the city would be bothered continuously with purchasing new supplies of keys. TALKED OF BY THE GERMANS.

The most reliable and business houses advertise in the Times A careful perusal of their will prove both Interesting and profitable DIRECT PRIMARY IN FULL OR NOT AT ALL--DIX Measure Must Be Made More Sweeping. Says Governor. A HUGE JOKE Official Ballot and Envelope Are Ignored in Provisions. (Special to the Brooklyn Times ALBANY. July 12.

Gov. Dix Intimated to-day that the Ferris-Blauvelt Direct Nomination bill, which was reported yesterday by the Assembly Judiciary Committee, will have to be made more sweeping before it will receive Executive attention. In its present form the measure 18 not radical enough. It applies merely to Senators, Assemblymen, Aldermen and Councilmen and Ignores the official ballot and the official envelope. There is also a referendum clause, which 18 considered the biggest kind of a joke.

Gov. Dix does not think the framers of the bill went far enough. The Rochester platform promised a State- wide direct primary, but the Ferris-Blauvelt measure 18 merely an experiment. 'The Executive, it 19 said, will insist that the bill be further amended so as to Include other ofAces. worst ever," 1s the way the DIrect Nomination bill 1 is spoken of.

From every source it 18 being condemned, and the impression prevalls that It will be Impossible to pass any primary bill the present session. When Minority Leader Brackett WAS asked his opinion of the bill he curtly replied: "What's the use of being a fakir. Why Include the Senators and Assemblymen if the other important offices are to be elimInated." Joseph 0. Hammitt, Secretary of the U'nion. issued the following statement attacking the bill: "The Direct Primary bill 19 breach of faith with the public.

For the cratic majority to pass such a bill 1a Inexcusable, Irrespective of what may be the merits of the question of Direct Primaries. The Democratic platform made a promise, and the Democrats were elected on the strength of that promise, and now the promise in to be broken. "The platform promised A State wide Direct Primary, and the people were Ju9tifled In belief that this meant A direct primary applying to all offices, because that 19 what a State- wide direct primary hag alwava been held to mean. This bill breaks this platform pledge. "The only reason for falling to provide for an official primary ballot must be A desire to perpetuate conditions under which more ballots may be put into the ballot box than the total number of enrolled voters, and opposition to the programme from the party machine must be made in the dark.

"At none of the hearings did anyone urge that an official ballot without offcial envelope would be suitable for direct primary. The striking out of the bill of all provision for official ballots is in the interest of ballot-box: stuffing." TARGET PRACTISE ENDED BY 23RD WARM WORK AT STATE RIFLE RANGE YESTERDAY. THREE HUNDRED PRESENT Except for the Officers, Excellent Scores Were Made. Officers and nen of the -third Regiment completed their annual outdoor target practise yesterday, when Companies H. and and memberg of the Field Staff, non-commissioned staff and hospital corps, who did not participate In the previous day's practise spent the entired day at the new State rifle range at Blauvelt.

The detachment was under command of Major W. J. Mynotte, and numbered about 300 officers and men, which was a far better showing than that made by the other half of the regiment at the range on Monday.

LONDON, July with have Ing 80.0 "bogus' contession of Dr. Harvey Hawley Crippen, the American jury convict, and executed tor the murder of his wife, and of having misconducted the case, Arthur Newton, the lawyer, who had charge of defense, was to-day suspended from the practise of law for one year. The order of suspension was made by Lord Alverstone, Chief Justice of England, and Justices Darling and BankeR, after long investigation.

The Lord Chief Justice and the two other jurists. only were convinced two weeks after Crippen's execution, that Newton sold to a London paper what purported to be a confession from his client, and which subsequently proven to have been false, but declared that the lawyer had circulated other false reports, It will be remembered that Crippen steadfastly maintained to the last moment that he wan innocent. Justice Darling, In commenting upon the order of suspension, declared that he was satisfled that Crippen had not been defended properly, and that the deTense was conducted largely with a view of furnishing copy for the newspapers which would subscribe financially fo him defense. Newton was ordered to pay all the expenses of the Inquiry. The disbarment of Newton was asked by the Law Society of England, which.

after an investigation, found him guilty of professional misconduct in connection with the Crippen case. The in suspending Newton has again drawn attention to what 18 termed the "murderous methods" of English criminal court procedure, which. it 19 declared, when a case is doubtful. renders it almost Impossible for an lanocent man or woman to el conviction. Considerable comment has "been caused by the failure of the King's Bench to entirely disbar Newton, as requested tne Law particularly in view of the fact that he served several months In jail on the charge of having pirited witnesses away In another case, Involving, it 18 said, members of the House.

During his professional career Newton has been concerned in handling of more cases involving shocking scandals In high re probably than; any other man in England. It is even: said that the revelations he is in. position to make concerning the life of a late member of the present Englieh royal family would turn the courts of England upsid: down.

T. IN FIGHT TO RESTORE FORMER WEST END ALUNA PARK CO. IS A LOSER P. S. C.

Says Conditions Have Changed in Decision Handed Down, Dismissing Complaint: The Public Service Commission to-day served upon the Brooklyn Union Elevated Railroad, the Nassau Electric Railway, the Sea Beach Railway and the South Brooklyn Railway Companies, component companies of B. R. T. system, an order dismissing the complaint of the Luna Park Company et al, with reference to the summer express service to Coney Island. Commissioner Eustis, in the opinion filed in this case, bases his recommendation for dismissal upon the following facts: Prior to 1909, before the completion of the Brighton Beach line for express service, there was an express service running over the Sea Beach line and terminating in an open street in front of the Luna Park amusement place, where the passengers were unloaded upon an open platform.

Since that time, the railroad company has constructed terminal only one block to the west of Luna Park on their own property, where they have ample room for handling the crowd within their own enclosure, without encroaching upon a street that open to the public. It was shown by a witness in behalf of the defendant, the Sea Beach Railway Company, that 8 certain express service had been established in May last, known as a local express, omitting some of the stations on the elevated portion, but making all stops along New Utrecht avenue, and that Mr. Thompson, of the Luna Park satisfied Company, had expressed himself as with this peared that arrangement, the service and it was further still The operation. territory along the line of New Utrecht avenue appears to have developed a great deal during the last few years, and while It might have been safe to run express service along there three or four years ago, It is quite evident that it is not safe at the present time; many accidents have occurred at the various street crossings during the past, three years, and 88 this is only a two-track road it Is not practicable to Inaugurate an express service along this part of the line that would amount to anything without absolutely withdrawing the local trains.
