No appropriation is made in the tentative budget for 1919 for the office of Assistant Superintendent of Buildings of the Borough of Brooklyn, the salary of which is $4,000. The incumbent of the office, William Stone, has held the position for over three years, and during the past Administration, because of long experience as a practical builder, every application for a slip permit that has come into the office has passed through his hands, over 6,000 in 1916 and over 5,000 in 1917. Mr. Stone voted for the re-election of Mayor Mitchel. He had held his office under the protection of the Civil Service law.

His several duties have gradually been transferred to other departments, until today he is stripped of official functions as was Li Hung Chang, who was so bereft of his insignia of office by the Chinese dynasty that he had to seek refuge behind a screen. When the tentative budget was made up this year there was no appropriation for Assistant Superintendent something before since that con- had never been done solidation. A large number of builders and architects in the borough and other business men are preparing to ask for the reinstatement of Mr. Stone because of his long experience as a builder and his efficiency in the duties of the office.

REV. E. C. BOYNTON NAVY CHAPLAIN Will Serve for Period of the War. Resigns From Church in cester, Mass.

(Special to The Eagle.) Worcester, October 15-The Rev. Edward C. Boynton, son of the Rev. Dr. Nehemiah Boynton of Brooklyn, for nearly two years pastor of the Adams Square Congregational Church, has resigned to become a chaplain in the United States naval reserve service during the war.

He expects to be called for duty in about a month and will probably be sent for four or six weeks to a naval training school. A meeting of the church is to be called to consider his letter. Another brother, the Rev. M. Russel Boynton, also has accepted a chaplaincy, and both will be commissioned lieutenants of the junior grade.

Their younger brother, Nehemiah Boynton is an ensign in the naval aviation service in France. Another brother, Daniel Boynton of Boston, is making arrangements to enter the merchant marine service. No. date has been named by the Rev. Mr.

Boynton as to when he will preach his farewell sermon and conclude his duties, as it will depend upon when he receives orders to report. The church, like other Protestant churches in the city, has been closed the past three Sundays on account of an epidemic of the influenza. Conditions are improving and it is expected health authorities will permit all the churches to resume their services next Sunday. CLUB FOR SOLDIERS IN ELKS OLD HOME War Camp Community Service Leases Schermerhorn Street Building Women to Have Canteen. On Friday of this week the War Camp Community Service will open the most modern club for enlisted men of the Army and Navy in the entire city, at 123 Schermerhorn in the building formerly used as the Elks Club and now leased from the Brooklyn Order of Elks by the service organization.

Although nothing has been said about the War Camp Community Service plans for Brooklyn up to the present time, for weeks work has been quietly proceeding, preparatory to a very extensive campaign for this borough. Thursday night sentatives of the principal service clubs and organizations in New York and Brooklyn will attend a dinner and conference, to be held at the new club, on Schermerhorn st. On Friday the clubhouse will be open for inspection the public, by officials and by representatives of all publications, and the actual opening will be held on Saturday, when the facilities of the clubhouse will be ready for use. A service dance is to be held that night. The Brooklyn campaign for the War Camp Community Service and the opening of the Schermerhorn st.

club are largely the result of the enthusiasm for this branch of Associated War Work shown by William Hamlin Childs. Mr Childs was the guiding spirit in organizing the Coney Island Unit, which closed its season recently. At the close of the Coney Island season he took up with the executive offices of the W. C. C.

S. the question of broadening the work in Brooklyn and putting it upon a permanent basis. William G. Carlisle, who was associated with Borough President Pounds during the Mitchel Administration, is to be manager of the club. The canteen will be maintained under the supervision of Mrs.

Walter Gibb, chairman of the National League for Women's Service and under the actual direction of Mrs. J. J. Broes Van Heekeren. Mrs.

Van Heekeren will be assisted by Mrs. Geoffrey Bare, who is to be directly in charge of the daily service. Mrs. Burt Nichols is to have charge of the club dances, which will be held Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evenings. It is expected that the club will be able to handle about 2,000 men daily without overcrowding.

The bill of fare provided in the canteen will be equal to any offered elsewhere in the city and will be served at cost. One hundred couples can dance conveniently in the large room on the second floor. REV. DR. PETERS' FUNERAL The funeral services of the Rev.

HUSBAND AND SON. CONVICT OBJECTOR TO WAR; MUST FIGHT OR FACE JAIL TERM Jury Makes Short Work of Ger- man Born Ex-Policeman's Religious Theories. Alexander M. Benecke, 34 years old, of 84 Clinton Woodside, L. the German-born ex-policeman, who became a "conscientious objector" and a strong opponent just a year after the Hun disturbed the peace of the world, was convicted yesterday afternoon before Federal Judge Thomas Ives Chatfield of failing to register September 12.

The jury deliberated just ten minutes after listening to a rambling story from the lips of the objector, in which he sought, apparently, to convince the jury and spectators that the teachings of Jesus Christ excused him from taking up arms in defense of the country that gives him a living. He is naturalized. According to Assistant Prosecutor Gasper Liota, Benecke will be inducted into the Army. He was ordered registered yesterday by the Court, and he informed Marshal Power he would not voluntarily d8 so. The Marshal will register him and then, according to Mr.

Liota, the objector will be taken to Camp Upton and given a gun. If he refuses to serveWell, 10 years seems to be the minimum and 20 the miximum punishment meted out by court martial. Benecke demanded a jury trial when he was arraigned before Judge Chatfield last Friday, and he got it, even though admitting he failed to register. Mr. Liota took just 11 minutes to present the Government's case.

Deputy Sheriff William J. Carroll testified to having him arrested after he admitted he did not register, Policeman Martin J. Cavanugh told of the arrest and Chairman R. Leslie Smith of Local 174 swore that Benecke had not registered. Benecke then took the stand.

of all the weird testimony ever heard in a courtroom his measured up to the ultimate limit. Spectators and even the Court laughed outright at times. He testified that he tried to give himself up September 12 at the board and was informed he could not be arrested until after 9 o'clock that night. He told of attempts to have himself arrested at the Long Island City Police Court and at the police station. No one seemed willing to arrest him.

show why he opposes war he quoted the New Testament freely, telling of Christ's statement to Peter when Peter asked Him to summon heaven's fire to destroy his enemies, that He was not on earth to kill. He told of Christ's order to the Roman soldier to give up warring if he would be saved. He said he was "converted" after reading a magazine article advising folks to select an ideal. His ideal, he said, is Christ. He bitterly attacked the churches and ministers, even taking a fling at Billy Sunday, declaring that they all that he is content to remain at Raymond street jail because there, last preach war instead of Christ, and said Sunday, he met a minister--the chaplain--who preached Christ and not war.

He swore that if he were in Germany he would adopt the same course, and said that the Kaiser and President Wilson were "yellow at heart" because they did not prevent war. He gave a rambling story of his career as a policeman, and to show that he practiced what he preaches he told of forgiving a policeman who robbed him and making a minor charge against a man who shot at him because Christ taught that the "other cheek" should be turned. After which the jury promptly branded him a slacker. Benecke, under the name of Bennett, was dismissed from the force last spring for refusing to hang Liberty bells on doorknobs.

The Woman Voter From Queens comes a report that from observations in that borough the chief reason for the hesitancy of women to register was the publicity of the questions. A woman became much confused thought all registering and saddling was secret. I did not know that the answers to the questions would be announced in this manner." From 'many quarters complaint that the chairman comes. the board made the registering sarily difficult by the rude manner in which the questions were asked. The women were ready to do whatever was required, but felt that at least ordinary courtesy should have been to both men and WOmen registrants.

From Queens comes also a protest against the present practice of the inspectors taking the books home for safe keeping. Mrs. Zilberman, a prominent suffragist, said: "I do not wish to cast reflections upon any inspector, but the practice of removing the registration books to the homes of the inspectors gives opportunity for unkind criticism. Some provision should be made for the safety of the books either at the polling place or in a nearby safe, not in the home of an inspector." The reluctance of women to tell ages is not shared by an old woman who registered Friday. She said: "I know we do not have to tell our real ages, but I am not ashamed of mine.

I believe that no woman should be allowed to vote unless she has sense enough to tell her age correctly." Judge O. Grant Esterbrook will speak today on "The Ballot and How to Use It," at P. S. No. 3, Hancock st.

near Bedford at 3:15 p.m. A large attendance of women is hoped for, as the 11th A. D. desires to uphold its record on Election Day, as it has in registration. The Women's Smith Committee has literature ready to send out and every plan made to start an intensive campaign for Al Smith as soon as the Liberty Loan is over.

Every Democratic organization in Brooklyn will hold special classes for instruction in voting, using large oilcloth ballots for the purpose, in combination with individual sample ballots. It is hoped that by reaching every election district, void ballots will be prevented, and the women will go to the polls with confidence. The Women's Auxiliary of the Madison Club received much valuable information last night from an address on "Government" by Charles R. Stengle. Next week the first of a series of four lectures on "Americanization" by Mrs.

Jeannette Brill will be given. Mrs. Brill is a lawyer who has made a special study of the subject. Each lecture will be followed by a talk by a prominent politician showing the application of the principles to practical politics. Mrs.

Agnes Leonard Ward, Democratic leader of the women of the Seventh A. announces that Alfred E. Smith will speak at Prospect Hall, Prospect ave. near Fifth on October 16. for the Liberty Loan.

A large attendance is expected. The Republican women of the Eighth A. D. met last evening at the clubhouse, 318 Union st. The service flag recently presented to the club by women's organization hangs before the door and has been much appreciated by the members of the Federal Club.

Members of the men's club spoke on the Liberty Loan and urged the women to redouble their efforts in increasing the subscriptions of the district. 22d A. D. has organized a Woman's Whitman Committee, of which Mrs. Anna Armbruster is chairman and Mrs.

M. Vernon secretary. At its opening meeting Mrs. Richard Chapman, secretary of the Kings County Women's Whitman Committee, explained the object of the committee and asked co-operation in getting out a heavy Republican vote. Miss Eva S.

Potter, vice chairman of the Whitman Committee, urged support of Governor Whitman and the Republican candidates on the ground that they had been the ones who really supported the President in his war measures. The People's Political League is distributing leaflets on the prevention and care of influenza, and requests the assistance of every woman's club of whatever nature. Upon application the Board of Health will give as many copies of this leaflet as needed, and it is desired that one be sent to every family in the State. The leaflets contain explicit directions regarding the care of the disease and the distribution is urged by the League as a patriotic duty. I DEMOCRATS TO HOLD RALLY AT ACADEMY Smith Will Speak There on Nov.

1-Republicans Begin Campaign Here Monday. The big meeting of the Democratic campaign in Brooklyn will be held at the Academy of Music on Friday night, November 1, with Alfred E. Smith, the candidate for Governor and probably several other nominees for State officers as the speakers, accordings to the announcement of County Leader McCooey today. The other night which Smith will devote to Brooklyn, Monday, October 28, will be given over to a tour fo Brooklyn. The candidate will speak at a series of mass meetings to be held in large halls in various sections of the borough.

The Republicans plan to begin next Monday night with a series of district meetings. Some of the candidates for the lower State offices may be speakers. The Democrats plan to hold nightly meetings, beginning next Monday, in every clubhouse to instruct voters.

MASONE, 44 Court st, Brooklyn. 8-4t tu 600 BODIES FOUND IN FOREST FIRES OF NORTH MINNESOTA Property Loss of $75,000,000 Will Hit Insurance Companies for $25,000,000.

Duluth, October 15 -More than 600 bodies of people burned to death in the forest fires which swept over northeastern Minnesota last Saturday, recovered today, and it was this number would be expecteen increased by 300, possibly by 400. when the entire devastated district has been gone over. The property loss is estimated at $75,000,000, with insurance of $25,000,000. Searching parties started from Moose Lake, Cloquet and Duluth before daybreak today and took up the work where it was left off last night when darkness made it impossible to distinguish bodies from charred and blackened tree trunks. During the night those detailed to clear the roads and rebuild bridges covered miles of territory which has been untouched by rescue workers and searching parties and sent to relief stations many truck loads of badly burned, half starved settlers, who have escaped death by the fire and who were found wandering about in a dazed condition.

Many of the bodies brought in today bore indications that death was caused by exposure and lack of food, rather than from burns. Many dead were found with hands and heads swathed in rude bandages, indicating that their lives might have been a saved had help reached them soon after the fire passed. The rescue party into the Fond du Lac Indian reservation brought reports of many deaths among the Indians. Many, however, saved themselves by taking refuge in lakes and streams until the fire passed. In the opinion of Adj.

Gen. W. F. Rhinow, who is directing the rescue work, it will be at least two and possibly two more days before the work of locating and bringing in bodies is complete. Chicago, October 15-Property damage by the forest fires in Minnesota amounts to $75,000.000, and the insurance will total $25,000,000, according to computations made today by insurance men here.

Their estimate does not include the standing timber and the other property which was destroyed which was uninsured, and the consensus of opinion in insurance circles is that the loss to insurance companies is the heaviest since the San Francisco fire in 1906. The losses to the fire risk will be greatest, it was stated, on the large lumber properties, on which war-time values are high and on which several of the risk concerns carry lines of insurance in excess of a million dollars.
