ROUTE TO-DAY GATHER'S NATTY TOGS STOLEN WHILE HE 11 I Eat for contentment. Eat for good nature. Both are the result of physical health. The most nutritious food made from flour is hattan extending on Delancey street from Clinton street to Essex street. Upon the completion of the said terminal and the other Improvements now under way in connection therewith, thirty eight-car elevated trains per hour, which can deliver 25,000 people per hour at the Manhattan terminal, may be operated across tho bridge.

The traffic will be entirely In addition to the present traffic over the surface trolley cars crossing the bridge. The transportation facilities to and from the Manhattan terminal of the bridge for the present traffic are hardly adequate and with the addition of thy. elevated railway traffic will be altogether inadequate. Until the completion of the subway now under construction in Manhattan, which Is to connect with the Williamsburg Bridge, some additional facilities should be provided for taking passengers to and from the station. Eight Tracks on the Manhattan.

"Manhattan Bridge In the case or the Manhattan Bridge, which it is expected will be completed by the 31st of December, 1909, provision is made on the structure for eight railway tracks In all four on the lower roadway level and four on the upper level. Of these tracks the four on the lower level can be used interchangeably for subway, elevated or surface car traffic. The four on the upper level may be used interchangeably for elevated and surface cars. It will be necessary to know in ample time before the bridge is completed just how the tracks over the bridge are to be allotted to the different transportation companies. "It Is of no small Importance to provide adequate facilities upon this bridge, and at Its terminals, for roadway traffic, and the disposition of the subway tracks at the Brooklyn and Manhattan terminals should be developed so as not to seriously interfere with this traffic.

"The contract already let by the former board of rapid transit railroad commissioners for the subway route 9-0-2 contemplates constructing the subway entrance to tho Manhattan Bridge on the Manhattan plaza as far as Christie street.

According to Justice Lorenz Zeller of the Court of Special Sessions, a life-long friend of the dead man. thn brewer fell unconscious In the street half a block from the hotel, and that being the only place open at the late hour at night, eev-eral bystanders carried the sick man Into the hotel.

Boys rummaging In the cellar on the site of the proposed Hamilton Park, In the block bounded by Ninth and Tenth avenues and Twenty-eighlh and Twenty-ninth streets, Manhattan, disclosed the most grewsome find of human bones this morning. In view of the evil reputation that some sections of the block enjoyed In the past, tho police loan to the Impression thut they- have unearthed the mute traces of tragedies and not the pranks of medical students. Among the bones those of forearms, ribs, vertebrae, pelvic and some not believed to be human were found. But most grewsome all were five hands, completely articulated with the wrist complete and four feet In similar condition- The floBh seemed to be dried in mummified fashion on them, and even the nails wore still in place. Two of the hands' looked as If they might have heen those of a woman, the fingers being long and slender.

The feet also were small. All the buildings in tho block have been razed, but thero has been no Ailing done as yet. The boys who made tha first find were Bernard McArdle of 255 Ninth avenue and Angelo Nonnclio of 454 West Twenty-seventh street, each 12 years of age. They were poking about in a cellar where a house had stood fronting on Twenty-eighth street near Tenth avenue and Ninth. The police say that It was a ramshackle tenement before it was torn down.

None of the bones lay deeply buried. It appeared as If they had been partially covered by debris which had fallen Into the cellar when the building was razed. With tholr find the boys Informed one of the pollcomen on the block, and the bones were removed to tho West Thirty-seventh street station house. There Captain Stephen O'Brien was somewhat at a loss to knoy what to do with the grewsome And. Still more bones were found after their first discovery, and It Is believed that even more bones may bo uncovered.

Police headquarters at once got word of the discovery and the hones were held at the station house pending the arrival of Instructions. NEW CHARITY HOUSES. Homer Folks Comments Upon Long-Sought Extension of Hospital Accommodations. Two new charitable Institutions an additional Custodial Asylum for Epileptics and an additional State Hospital for the Insane, and a new site and building for tho Randall's Island House of Refuge, have been authorized by the Legislature. All are to be In the neighborhood of New York City, and in remarking to-day upon the long-sought extension of hospital accommodations for the metropolitan area, Homer Folks, secretary of the State Charities Aid Association, said: "In providing for the selection of a site In the southeastern part of the state for a hospital for the Insane, the "Ike Baker farm" site Is abandoned for the present.

In 1904 the State Commission In Lunacy, acting under the authorization of a law enacted in 1002, selected that site, which Is at Comstocks, Washington County. It was owned by a prominent politician, and its selection was very widely criticised on various grounds. A sufficient ground for objection was Its remoteness from the center of population where the Insane are who are to be provided for. The selection of a site In that part of the state, however, is chargeable rather to the Legislature for enacting the law of 1902, than to the lunacy commission. "In the measure for a site near New York, which the Governor has now approved, it Is required that the land Is to comprise not more than 1,000 acres, and must be convenient of access by rail or water, or both.

The lunacy commission is to report to the Legislature of 1908, with description of lands, terms on which they call be secured, and contracts for their purchase, If possible." CLARA FOX AT LAF.GE. Colored Girl Who Can't Remember Where She Lives. Tho Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children Is anxious to learn something about a little 9-year old colored girl, who says that her name Is Cltra Fox and lhat she lives somewher.1 in Manhattan. The child appears to be rather stupid. She was found wandering about tho streets of Coney Island late last night after most of the visitors had left for home, by Patrolman Brown of the Coney Island station.

She was taken to the Children's Society headquarters in Schermcrhorn street, and was arraigned In the Children's Court this morning on a charge of vagrancy. She was remanded to the Children's Society to appear in court on July 16. In the mean-! time efforts will be made to find out who the child's parents are. CONNECTICUT AUTO PARKWAY. Unfavorable Report In Senate, but Bill Will Be Discussed.

Hartford, July 12 An unfavorable report was made to the Senate today on the bill to Incorporate the Connecticut Automobile Parkway Company, the purpose of which Is to build a parkway diagonally across the state to connect with a similar road in Massachusetts, giving a direct route between Boston and New York. Senator Luther, who Is president of Trinity College, told the Senate that there was widespread Interest In this enterprise and urged discussion of the bill. Through his efforts the hill was ordered printed and will be discussed next week. Three Members Inspected the Bridge Jam Very Carefully Last Night NO RECOMMENDATION AS YET. More Complaints About the Smith Street Line A Report From Commissioner Stevenson.

The Public Utilities Commission docs not lack in strenuousness. Last night three members braved the dangors of the crush during the rush hours on the Brooklyn Bridge, and this afternoon an Inspection trip will be made of the entire route of the proposed Fourth avenue subway. The members of the committee, Messrs. Bassett, McCarroll and Eustis, were satisfied with the result of their Investigation of the conditions which prevail on the bridge, and while the committee is not ready to make any recommendations, it secured information and facts which will prove very useful at a future date. According to the original plan, the inspection trip of the route of the Fourth avenue subway was to be undertaken only by the subcommittee consisting of Messrs.

Bassett, McCarroll and Maltbio but Chairman Willcox and Commissioner Eustis are so interested In the project that they decided to accompany the committee and also view the route of the first subway which will be built under tjie jurisdiction of the present commission. Chief Engineer Rice reported that the 500 printed copies of the form of contract which must be ready for public distribution before a public hearing can bo held had been delivered at the offices of the commission. The old Rapid Transit Commission had set Julv 23 as the daw for the public hearing, but inasmuch as the notice of the hearing must be advertised for two weeks, the commission, on the recommendation of Mr. Rice, changed the date to Monday, July 29. Chairman Willcox made it clear at tho meeting this morning that the commission will not tolerate tho disturbing of the surface of public thoroughfares which will prove harmful to tho business interests.

Mr. Willcox took this stand when a letter was read from William Wise Sons complaining of the conditions on Flatbush avenue and in Nevlns street. The letter stated that Flatbush avenue, In front of their store, was blocked with subway obstructions, and that similar conditions prevailed In Nevlns street. The firm had no objections if these conditions continued during July and August, but In the fall, the letter stated, the conditions would prove very detrimental to their business. "I have no sympathy," said Mr.

Willcox, "with this cutting up streets and blocking them with obstructions, and I move that the chief engineer take this matter up at once and report back to the board." Another complaint was received from the owner of the building at 64 Flatbush avenue. He stated that tho contractor who is building the subway in Fourth avenue knocked a hole In the foundation of his building and that thero is danger that thieves might enter the premises at night and cart away some of the stock. Ho requested the board to instruct the contractor to restore the foundation to Its original condition. This complaint was also referred to Mr. Rice, with instructions to take it up immediately.

A complaint characterizing the subway in Furman street as a nuisance was received from the New York Dock Company. Report "Will Speak for Itself. Commissioner Bassett, on behalf of the sub-commtttee which investigated the traffic conditions on the Brooklyn Bridge last night, reported progress. Speaking tor publication, Mr. Bassett saJd that he did not care to indulge In any prophecies, but that the report, containing the facts, would speak for itself.

When the public service bridge investigators passed through the entrance on tho Park row' side, they came to a halt, and Chief Engineer Ingersoll of the Bridge Department began to explain to the coirmiaMsrs bow the new terminal would be built. The party attracted the attention of a big policeman. The "copper" rushed up to them with his eyes flashing Are. "HI, there, you fellers, get a move on yer!" he shouted. This ain't no place for a crowd ter collect." Some one in the crowd explained the significance of the situation to the angry policemen and the public service men were allowed to watch the boorish spectacle of tho crush that came from all sides from the safe location which they had appropriated as a sort of a "reserved stand." The party then went to the northern platform upstairs, whero the trains arrive from Brooklyn.

In order to get a more satisfactory view of proceedings here, they mounted a narrow upright ladder, which took them to the train dispatcher's cage, about 20 feet above the platform. Here they got an excellent view of the loading and unloading of trains and the ideas gained from the spectacle led one of the party to suggest that the crush there had become a matter of education with the traveling public and that they had learned to pass through the trying ordeal in the clocklike manner of a trained army. Then they climbed down the ladder In single file and pushed their way through the mass of humanity down to the trolley loops below, where the familiar football rushes are executed by men who seem to be so anxious to get into the car before their weaker sisters. They saw Just how the women are Ignored and fairly trampled upon and some of the commissioners said ijiup very harsh thlngR of the disgraceful spectacle. The South Brooklyn Board of Trade sent In a communication severely criticising the transit conditions on the Smith street line.

These conditions were fully described at a public hearing which was held by the old State Railroad Commission. The letter stated that the conditions complained of at that time had not been improved since by the company, and a request was made upon the new commission to take up the matter in the form of a public hearing. The letter, on the motion of Commissioner Bassett. was referred to the committee of the whole. Stevenson Heports on Four Bridges.

Bridge Commissioner James W. Stevenson has sent a letter to the Public Utilities Commission, giving a detailed report of the progress of the work on the Williamsburg, Manhattan and Blackwell's Island bridges, which, with the Brooklyn Bridge, are the four most Important structures under the Jurisdiction of his department, and considered the key to the transit problem between Manhattan and Brooklyn and Queens. The Information submitted gives the commission an excellent Idea of what may be expected from the Bridge Department In Improving the present transit conditions. The letter from Mr. r.son Is as follows "With reference to the traffic problems In connection with the bridges over the East River in thp city of New York, I de.

sire to present to your honorable commission for consideration the following, "Williamsburg Bridge Certain work is in progress under the jurisdiction of the Department of Bridges which, when completed, which I expect will be by the latter part of this your, will result in ths operation over the hvidge of elevated railroad trains from Brooklyn to and lnt the subsurface railroad station in Man Every Shred of Klienfeld's Clothing Gone; Police Got Loot Back. TRACE THIEF BY GIRL'S CARD. This Was Left in Shabby Suit Man Found Wearing What He Stole. Bank Book Safe. Solomon Klelnfcld spent the first day of his week's vacation on Monday sitting around Balmer's bathing pavilion in a damp bathing suit, for be was like Flora McFHmsey, and had "nothing to wear." Mr.

Klelnfeld is a young man with a leaning to fine clothes, and what Is known to the vulgar as "front." He Is a glass cutter by occupation, and works for the TlfTanys. And he started off for a week's pleasure and freedom from labor on Monday, and put on his new suit of fine blue cloth, a straw hat of the brightest freshness, a natty necktie, a fancy negligee shirt, and oxford tics with silken bows spreading from the laces. The day was a bit soggy, and he made for the baths lust as soon as he got down to the beach. He put his valuables, ac cording to Warning, in the safe at Balmer's and then went to room 2009 and dis robed. He slipped Into his bathing suit and was soon sporting about In the water like a Triton.

Au hour Just about suited him for his bath and he went back to the bathing house, opened the door of the compartment with his key and found- a Hack suit thero Instead of a blue one. The black suit was not nearly as good as his own. He shouted for au attendant and protested that somebody had taken away his clothes. Just then another man came along and claimed the black one. There was a shabbier black one In his room, the stranger said, half speechless wrath.

Klelnfeld handed the black thingj over to the man, and declared that he would take nobody's clothes but his own, and he would not budge a step until somebody produced them. Ho could not very well go home in his bathing togs, for he lives at 15a East One Hundred and Thirteenth street, Manhattan, a long way from the beach at Coney Island. The folks at the bathhouses said that he would have to sit around Just as be was until the bathhouses were empty, and there was a hint that he might take what was left. So he waited live hours and what was left was really not worth carrying him home. Ho said so, aul the Balmers fixed him up with a glnnt's trousers, a cravenette coat and what he ungraciously called a sklddoo hat.

In the pocket of the shabby suit which was left after all the other bathers had gone, and which, the people believed, was a cluo to the thief, was the card of a young Uss named Noonan, who lived somewhere on Stanhope street. The thlof had carried off Klelnfeld's clothes even to tha underwear and collar buttons, and he had left his own underclothing with his 3hibby shoes and otherwise tawdry outfit. The police were notified and Klelnfeld was anxious to get back not only his clothing but his bank book, showing a big deposit on the books of the Dry Dock Savings Bank. He could not draw while the book was missing and he needed the money to continue the Joys of tho summer vacation. Detectives Reynolds and Dittman of the headquarters staff, were railed In and searchod for the young woman, as detectives have done since the days of old.

They found Miss Noonan and she said that she had that vey card to a young man who 11 Introduced himself as Emlle Zwirz, but she could not tell where Zwirz lived. The detectives found that his home was at 248 Stanhope street, but that he had not been behaving himself very well and had left his father's residence. But he could be found In the near neighborhood, his relatives were very sure He was so found, late yesterday afternoon, standing at the corner of Irving avenue and Stanhope street. And hs was wearing Klelnfeld's clothes and outfit, even to the shoes with the silken bows. The officers got from him an aeknowl-ment, first as to his name, and second as to the theft, and then they took him down to Balmer's and made him strip.

They took Mr. Klelnfeld's clothing and forced Zwirz to slip into his own discarded duds. Klelnfeld got back his bankbook and went and bought a new hat. This morning he charged Zwirz in the Butler street court, before Magistrate Dooley. with grand larceny and Zwirz was held to answer.

It is alleged that several persons have lost clothing at some one of the baths this season. REMOVING A BURYING GROUND. Bodies of Some Pioneer Residents of Flushing Are to Be Interred in a New Place.

Coney Island. The complainant was Walter B. Ruse, a telegraph operator. Ruse was seeing the sights at Coney Island on May 20, he said, when he met a man namod Colby.

They played pool together, and a man giving his name as Medden Joined them. Weiss was there, too. According to the testimony at the trial there was the usual suggestion of play for money, and then it needed $1,000 to prove everybody In tho game was "all right."

Landlady Also the Victim of a Man Whose Name She Does Not Know. Mrs. Charles Alholt did not sleep a blessed wink last night through, thinking and thinking and thinking about the villainy of a bare-faced, hook-nosed man, with velvet footsteps and bulging eyes, who had walked out of the house with $500 worth of Jewelry and clothing, most of it belonging to her, but some of it to the five furnished roomers In the house.

Thi3 morning she called the police of the Bergon street station, and two detectives from headquarters, and a reporter, to her home at 342 Schermcrhorn street, to tell them all about It. The house is three stories and basement and furnished rooms are to let. Mrs. Alheit is a professional pianist, and a Daughter of Re-bekah, and a Daughter of Liberty, and one of the Women's Relief Corps of the (J. A.

an Improved Order of Red Men, and' one of the Orders of the Eastern Star. The hook-nosed scoundrel took all Mrs. Alheit's fraternity pins. The thief was about 25 years old, 5 feet 6 Inches in height, and had dark hair and eyes and was dressed in dark clothing. He first went to Mrs.

Alheit's house three weeks ago, asking for a furnished room on the second floor. But the house was full then, and remained full until one of her lodgers went to Boston and she "put out a slip." And the paste on the back of the sign was not dry when the hook-nosed man came again, and took the room on the third floor, front hall. That was on Monday, but he did not take possession until the following morning. He did not vouchsafe his name, nor did Mrs. Alheit ask him.

He carried a canvas telescope portmanteau. Mrs. Alheit did not see him leave with it on Thursday afternoon, but she believes that It had a lot of the lodgers' clothing and much of her jewelry. The tnan did not seem to stay much at home during the night, but was in the house all day on Tuesday and Wednesday and part of Thursday. THE COURTS.

GIRL'S FATHERAFTER MELLIL0 When He Bought Household Goods for His Daughter, Pingree Supposed She Was Married. Henry E. Pingree, a well-to-do mechanical engineer of East Boston, was In the Gates avenue court to-day seeking a method to recover household goods that he alleged he had purchased for his daughter. He had secured a sum mons for Domlnick Mellllo of 651 Greene I avenue, but Domlnick did not appear. He sent a lawyer to represent him.

Mr. Pingree said he had bought the I goods, through his counsel. Fenton Rockwell, when he supposed his daughter and Mellllo were married. After his daughter had left the home of Mellilo's mother at 651 Greene avenue he had written for the goods, but received instead a letter which was not pleasing. Counsel for Mellllo said the girl had come here from Boston in out two years ago, had been employed in Mellilo's office in Manhattan and had lived with his mother at t'e Greene avenue address.

The girl, he said, had paid no board, and feeling grateful to Mellilo's mother, had I from time to time presented pieces of brlc-brac to her. Lawyer Rockwell made a serious charge against Mellllo, which his counsel said was unfounded and declared that the girl's father had sent letters to Melltlo threatening to shoot him. Magistrate Hylan told Counselor Rockwell to prepare a list of the goods in question, and adjourned the case until July 16. BOYS PLEAD NOT GUILTY.

"Blaekwell'g Island Bridge The track construction, as contemplated on this bridge, will provide upon completion of the bridge for operntlon of cars over six tracks, two tracks for elevated railway trains, two tracks for surface trolley cars and two tracks which may be used for either surface trolley cars or for trains operated from the subway to and over tho bridge. In addition to these tracks and to meet future demands there is sufficient space on the structure for two additional tracks for the operation of elevated railway trains. "In determining upon the track plans for this bridge I havo endeavored to ascertain the intentions of the transportation companies with regard to their operation to and over the bridge.

So far as I am advised by them it is not contemplated that use may be made of any of these tracks except one pair for the operation of surface trolley cars from the Borough of Queens ovpr the bridge and to Manhattan into a sub-surface terminal which the Department of Bridges is constructing. "The rapid development of the Borough of Queens will certainly require In the immediate future more adequate facilities over this bridge than the transportation companies contemplate furnishing and I would suggest, that this matter receive the earnest consideration of your honor-ablo commission."

WHY CHECKS ARE WITHHELD.

Receiver Preston Informs; Stockholders of the New York Building-Loan Banking The people who intrusted their money to care of the New York Bulldlng-Loan Banking Company have been expecting checks from Receiver Charles M. Preston for some time, and he has Issued the following notice to inform them why they are not forthcoming: "Believing that the stockholders are anxious to know the condition of affairs at the present time, I write to inform you that I have had the checks ready to pay to each stockholder a dividend of 15 per cent for several months, but have been forbidden by the court to pay out any portion of this amount until a decision should be had by the court to determine the rights of shareholders In Class who were defeated from participation. The court on appeal decided against Class and as receiver, made a motion to the court to vacate the stay and be permitted to pay the dividend. The court declined to vacate the stay, and, on the other hand, has continued same pending an appeal to the highest court In the state, where the case will be argued in October next and a decision will be rendered, in all probability, not later than November, and, pending that time, the injunction continues preventing me from paying out the money. 'I deeply regret this condition because I know that the stockholders have been very anxious for their money for a long time, and I have done everything in my power to facilitate them in getting it at the earliest possible moment, and I feel It Is due to them to know the exact situation as it exists at present, hence the reason I write.

I assure the stockholders that as soon as it can be made possible the moneys will be distributed." SAYS TAILOR DAVIS TOOK BET. Sousa Wagered $2 on Two Horses. They Won, but He Lost.
