Prwport, May 19.—The Fre«port Chamber of t'ommerco waii bom last nlffht In an enthUHlantlc meetini; of buslneiiH men at the Wide Awake En- icine HouM on Church Btreet.
Some thirty or more representative businefta men of tho village resolved that the present time Is the time to go ahead with what they believe Is a much needed acquisition to the town and In . spite of the fact that not as many turn¬ ed out as were expected, it was deemed wise to make a start as a lot of those who were not there were more than willing to Join.

The constitution and by-laws as out¬ lined by the committee were adopted as read with a few minor changes, and the object of the orgailiKation will be to further the Interests of Freeport Ren- eraily, to promote a general and social Interest among the business ihen, to attract capital and desirable citizens to the village, to aid In reforming any abuses that may arise against the wel¬ fare of the merchants, to encourage a community feeling, to aflllliate with like organizations in the county for the good and welfare of Freeport and Nas¬ sau County in general.
K. 8. Randall sent written regrets, but went on record as belnv behind the rtiovement. Oeorge M. L.evy also sent regrets. It was reported that a can- vans had been made of the village and that tbe sentiment for the Chamber of Commerce waa strong.
The sense ef the msetiac was to Snd out first whether or not Freeport want¬ ed a Chamber of Commerce and wheth¬ er or not the flnancial aid would be forthcoming.
It was unanimously carried (that the organization be formed and then the proposed by-laws were adopted section by section and Anally as a wbole. Government Body

TELLS MERCHANTS OF URGENT NEED FOR COOPERATION

Rockville (jentre. May 19.—A. F. Win- slow, representative of the Con.sumers* Discount System, which is installing the cash and carry system in the vil¬ lage, addressed the Business Men's As¬ sociation at its meeting Tuesday night. He laid great stress on the n^ed of co¬ operation, not only among the mer¬ chants, but among the consumera. He pointed out that the village was as much to one as to the other, and that oh'ly through co-operation could Rock¬ ville Centre be brought to tbe position It rightfully should hare.
Mr. Winslow explained as his reason Jar oMiting into RockviUe Centre; tM apparent nsed for something to stimu¬ late Interest In the oonunonlty. In can¬ vassing the residents, be said, he learned that there was a, psralstCnt habit of residents to make their purchases but of town, generally in Biooklyn and New York. It appeared to him that this action was a habit acquired by the novelty of the trip and change in scenery. The great variety of mer¬ chandise to be seen on a shopping trip, he said, appealed to tbe women resi¬ dents.
"I wouldn't trade in Rockville Cen¬ tre, because the stores don't have what I want." he sold he had been frequent¬ ly told. He sold be explained to pros- pctlve buyers that they might be sur¬ prised if they visited the local trades¬ men, but the womeif residents Insisted they could do better in thie city.
Thi merchants, Mr. Winslow said, were complaining of this very thing— that the town's people were not coming to their stores, except in emergency. He admonished the mercha&ts to pro¬ duce the same attractions here as there are in New Tork and Brooklyn, and said that if they didn't there would be an influx of chain stores, which are already contemplating establishing branohes here. Shirt shops, candy shops, ready-to-wear clothing houses, corset maaufaoturers, and other big, businesses which had progressed through co-operation, were considering RockvUle Centra as a fertile fleld.
Mr. Winslow sold that the New Tork newspapers were carrying great dis¬ play advertisements, alt announcing methods of saving money, while the Review contained very few adrertlsa- ments of attractito offerings at the Rocinrille Centre stores. While admit¬ ting that the local merchants could not compete with the New York merchants on so large a scale, t>ecauBe they were not catering to so large a fleld, he pointed out that the lock of persentlng offerings was perhaps partly responsi ble for tbe ignorance c^ tlia purchasing public of tbe wares cbtalaaMe In tbe village.
Au to the discount sretem, Mr. Wln^ s!ow sold that the average population of tHe village might be divided as SO per cent mothers. 10 per cent fathers and tt) per oen| childrOa.
"Everyone known what money means," he said. 'Hisd Ity giving the public discount checks jfor oaab pay' ments for cariryiug the purchases, they will understand the yatuo clearly. It teaches the child the lesson of saving moatgr wtaiob Dad ia wwklng so hard to obtain. Mid wMeb Mothcf knows she must have to exist. Tha discount checks appeal to the whole Itt per c«at ot tbe oomfaunity."

ISMNDTE SCHEHJUFOR TROLLEir CARS
Direden AidMutM New SwildH% to Gve Better Service as Sow u Cofliplete^, Probably Aboat Jaly 1—Actioa Will Pleaie Conamten Wbicb Depead oa Trolley Service.
Hempstead. May 19.—W. O. Wood, vice-president and general manager of the New York and Long Island Trac¬ tion Company, announced yesterday, following a meeting of the directors of the company, that a flfteen minute schedule would be put into effect on tha company's lines as soon as the necessary switches can be Installed. This, it was predicted, would be about the flrst of July.
The Board of Directors at yester¬ day's meeting authorized the construc¬ tion of the switches and the purchase of the material, which will be Installed as rapidly as possible. One of the switches will be on Front street, east of where the paveinent ends, and the other will be near Greenfield cemetery, considerably to the south of the one already In that vicinity. Beside saving time and allowing cars to pass at the right point, the new switch on Front street will relieve considerable conges¬ tion at the so-called trolley Junction,, by doing away with the necessity- of backing cars onto the "Y" at that point in order to allow otiiet cars to pass.
When the new switches are installed a flfteen minute schedule will be main¬ tained from 5:30 a. m. Until 9 p. m., when the half hour schedule will again bec6me effective.
Superintendent John M. Stoddard figured that the cost of this extra serv¬ ice would be $125 a day to the.conA pany, but he Is in hopes there will be enough more fares to make up for the extra expense •
Th« aotion of the Company in agree¬ ing to this extra service follows closely that of the Village Hoards of Hemp¬ stead and Freeport, placing the buses under the Some conditions as the trol¬ ley lines. The compauiy representatives would ma^e no promises before the ac¬ tion of the Boards was taken, but said simply that they would do the best they could. With the fifteen minute schedule, they will be glylng better service than the trolleys and buses combined do now, as the practice of the buses Is to run Just ahead of the cars and take passengers that would otherwise go to the tt^Ileys. The new schedule will be especially appreciated in Roosevelt, where the people have fought for the buses because of the slight additional service given to that community, which must depend wholly on street lines.

Noted Jurist Died at 2 o'clock TUs Morniag from CompBcatioas foUowiaf an Operatioa for Bladder Trouble —Wife and Qose Relatives at His Bedside When Ead aae.
Rookville Centre, May 19.—Village Board of Trustees, by resolution last night, decided to impose a charge of $2 for installing an electric meter where the current is used for heating .ind cooking purposes. Heretofore, It was explained, there was no charge for auch service, but since fuse boxes must be installed at a cost of %3, the co.st Is placed on,the consumer. Notice of the change is to be .filed with the Public Service Commission, and will become effective thirty days after.
Tha board referred to the light and power committee for Investigation and report, the application of L. Loomis, for electric light service. His hou.se is said to be about 1200 feet from the end of the present service line, and it is estimated it will cost about $250 to erect poles and supply electricity.
Trustee Reynolds requested the board to have a auaoended light placed at the Intersection of Merrick road, Lincoln and Centre avenues. The request fol¬ lowed a report that Harold Rifenberg, special trafflc offlcer, had been struck by a motorcycle Saturday night, because of the darkness at this spot. The board Instructed Chief Engineer Major to place the light in position.
Park Avenue Drain
More discussion developed over the problem of draining the corner of Park avenue and Observer street of the pool of water that settles there. Engineer Voorhis reported that as the railroad company had refused to grant permis¬ sion to connect with its drain, when such permission was sought to provide, drainage for Front street, he did not believe it would grant permission at this time to connect a pipe from Park avenue. The board decided to send a letter making the request.
An alternate plan of draining the water to Merrick road was explained by Engineer Voorhis. He said the grade would make it necessary to slope the ground toward Merrick road, and in do¬ ing so cause the building of a gutter at the Merrick road Into which automo¬ bile wheels were likely to catch.
The original plan advocated by. En¬ gineer- Voorhis, of building a cement gutter along Observer street to Village avenue received support from 1l-ustee Brlsman, who said that he had received complaints that water settled along Ol>- server street, lihs plan, it was admit¬ ted, would Rectify both conditions. Trus- tee Longenecker, Street Commissioner Patten and Knglneer Voorhls will con¬ fer fnd malt* a -positive report at the next ^oaeetlng.
Other Matters Considered
The board decided to purchase suf¬ flcient tarvla to spread over the roads and prevent them from breaklgg up.
A letter of thanks for the removal of ashes was received from Minerva Franklin of 24 Park place, who ap¬ pended a request that something be done to put the street In condition. The railroad company has spresd ashes be- tween the tracks. The matter was re¬ ferred for Investigation.
Philip Rellly of Mt. Vernon, who wants to build a house at Forest and Jefferson avenues, requested the board to provide blm with water. Tbe matter wa4 referred to the committee with power to act.
Tbe btiard authorized the purchase of a carload of pipe for water extension purposes, from the Central Foundry, at a price of 7« cents per foot.
Tntatee Srisman reported contracts for repairing the toilet In the Defender Hosa Company quarters had been let to T- Sbanahan', on a bid of $66, and for painting tbe bouse to Bmptra Painting Oagtianr wa a bid of 116.

Washington, May 19.—Edward Doug¬ las White, chief justice of the U. 8. Supreme Court, died at Oarfleld Hos¬ pital here at 1 o'clock this morning.
Death came after a valiant struggle by the aged jurist against complications which set In following an operation for bladder trouble last Friday.
At the bedside when <he chief Jus¬ tice passed on, were Mrs. White and close relatives.
Although the operation on the jus¬ tice, who was In his 76th year, waa per- foi-med last Friday, there had been confidence of his recovery until Tues¬ day afternoon. At that time he .suf¬ fered a sinking spell and lapsed Into unconsciousness.
Associate Justices of the Supreme Court were with the chief justice al¬ most constantly, until a few hours be¬ fore his death.
Since 1920, when he was appointed to the highest judicial office in the land by President Taft, Edward Douglas White has presided over the high court.
He was born in I.a Fourche, La., on November 3, 1845, and received hi.s early education in Catholic institutions, later attending school at Mount St. Mary's, Emmitsburg, Md., and taking his degrees at Georgetown University in Washington.
Mr. White flr.st came before the na¬ tion in 1891, when he entered a sena¬ torial contest in Louisiaim. He fought a vigorous battle for the anti-lottery movement In hts home state, and was appointed to the Senate of the United States by the legislature of Louisiana.
President Cleveland, in 1894, appoint¬ ed Senator White to the Supreme Court, a representative of the South and filling a vacancy which custom had always held to be the place of a resident of New York.
Flags were at half-mast, over govern¬ ment and private building in the na¬ tional capital today, and official, social and humble private Washington mourned the loss of one of the great men of America,
Funeral services will be held .at ten o'clock Saturday morning at St. Mathews' church here. Monsignor Lee will officiate. Burial will be In Oak HIU Cemetery. In Washington.

Mltched Field, May 19—Flying just high enough to make a good crash, Capt. Harry M. Smith received m. brok en leg and numerous cuts and bruises when the Curtis H plane he drove dropped like a plummet to earth and caught the aviator and his companion in the debrjs. Sergt. John Whit, who was In W ship with Capt. Smith, es¬ caped with nothing more serious than minor cuts nnd bruises and the severe shaking up.
Capt. Smith was hurried to the post hospital In a car rom .the L. W. F. Company office which speeded out to the aid of the fallen nien as the ship was seen to plunge to earth between Mitchel Field and Roosevelt Field.
Capt. Smith and Sergt. White were taking a student flight with the cap¬ tain .as the instructor. They were fly¬ ing at about 50 feet when the Hispnno- Huiza engines "went dead" and the ship "pan-caked", which means that it came down flatly. It broke In two l)arts, the wreckage flew In every di¬ rection and the engines were liroken out of the engine beds.
Both Capt. Smith and Sergt. White crawled from the wreckage, the for¬ mer dragging his broken leg and WPre dear of the ship when help reached them.
CONTRACTAWARDED FOR NEW BRIDGE; BroS^AR APART
Mineola, mV 18.—The Board of Supervisors In meeting here this after¬ noon, let contract for the construction of a steel bridge over Middle Keck Creek at Bayvllle, In the Town of Oys¬ ter Bay, to the P. T. Cox Construc¬ tion Company, of New Tork City, |for $388,400.
There was a wide range In the bid¬ ding. The low man was $141,003 under tho highest bid, which was offered by .lohn Monks ft Sons, of New York City. That bid was |539,493.
So far apart was the bidding that when Chairman Hiram R. Smith called fur the resolution to accept the low bid Supervisor O. Wilbur Doughty asked that when the low bid was accepted that the checks, required to be fur¬ nished with the bids, of the three low bidders, be retained, so that if for any reason the low bidder did not enter into the contract that the next lowest bid might be accepted. Mr, Doughty explained his motion was meant to prevent the whole bidding from being destroyed and new bids called for if the low bidder did not qualify. His I motion prevailed and the contract was awarded to the Cox company.

.Mineola. Muy 19.—Former Sheriff Herbert S. Harvey, of Queens County, a Democratic (lolitician. high in the council of his iMirty. who is under In¬ dictment here charging him with brib¬ ery in connectioti with the ring thnt operated in stoli-n motor oars, pleaded not guilty before Justice Cropsey here this morning und hia bail was renewed ut $5,000.
His trial wasiset for May 23 at tho reauest of District Attorney Charles R. Weeks. His l«iil was furnished I)y a surety company.
Harvey was represented hy former Judge Rasquin and Charles M. Wy¬ song. fornuT district attorney of Xas¬ sau Counly. Hurvey, ns jaunty ns ever. smiliUK his happy amilo that char¬ acterized him during hia iiollticixl rise, appeared beside his coun.sel In the court room. He .seems to take his indictment lightly, if outward appearances count for anything.
Thomas Barbutti, former county in¬ vestigator under District Attorney Weeks, who is under indictment for perjury in connection with the trial of Carman Plant, asked the court for permission to make u statement. Barbutti Heelis Counsel "Y<un- honor," said Kai-luiitl, "I am Ml III without counsel and I have no money to get any. T have talked to .(udge Scudder und he tells me he is i-eafly to do nis duty If he is assigned." He meant by this that he had dis¬ cussed with former .ludg<i Townsend S«udder the possibility of the latter representing him as counsel In his com- Ing trial on Monday, and that the ex- judge had intimated (hat if the court aHHlgne<l him to defend Barbutti, ho would do so.
"1 never uHslKn counsel asked for by (he defendant," said .Justice Cropsey.— "and without any feeling hi this oas|/ will not do it now."
Then Barbutti usked for more tlmo (o get counsel and .lustice Cropsey said h<' already hud a week and nothing had been done.
"If I had l)epn a habitual criminal, 1 would have been prepared," said Barbutti, "but this is the flrst time I hav(' ever been charged with crime ond I am not ready. I have been awfully muddlW in my mind and I am very confused," he added.
"I can't help that," said the court. "You do not Reem to have done much to get cousel. Some habitual crim¬ inals ure never prepared."
"Perhaps that means me," asked Barbutti.
"No, but when you m&ke speeches, you leave yourself open to an answer," replied .lustice Cropsey.
Barbutti left the court after asking If he could conie linck to see .Tustico <'ropsey tomorrow.
Xo change was made in the date of his trial which was set for next -Mon¬ day.
The trial of Salvatore Salerno, of Port Washington, another memtjer of the ring that dealt In stolen motor < ars In this county, will go on some time late this afternoon. It was orig¬ inally set for this morning, bi)f Saler¬ no's counsel, Attorney Harry Moore, Is engaged In trial and will not l»e able (o go in criminal court" until this aft¬ ernoon.

Some thirty or more representative businefta men of tho village resolved that the present time Is the time to go ahead with what they believe Is a much needed acquisition to the town and In . spite of the fact that not as many turn¬ ed out as were expected, it was deemed wise to make a start as a lot of those who were not there were more than willing to Join.

TELLS MERCHANTS OF URGENT NEED FOR COOPERATION Need of S^imalatiBf laterett of Coniamer, ia Local StorM Ap- pareat troai faiTettigatioa Rockville (jentre. May 19.—A. F. Win- slow, representative of the Con.sumers* Discount System, which is installing the cash and carry system in the vil¬ lage, addressed the Business Men's As¬ sociation at its meeting Tuesday night. He laid great stress on the n^ed of co¬ operation, not only among the mer¬ chants, but among the consumera. He pointed out that the village was as much to one as to the other, and that oh'ly through co-operation could Rock¬ ville Centre be brought to tbe position It rightfully should hare. Mr. Winslow explained as his reason Jar oMiting into RockviUe Centre; tM apparent nsed for something to stimu¬ late Interest In the oonunonlty. In can¬ vassing the residents, be said, he learned that there was a, psralstCnt habit of residents to make their purchases but of town, generally in Biooklyn and New York. It appeared to him that this action was a habit acquired by the novelty of the trip and change in scenery. The great variety of mer¬ chandise to be seen on a shopping trip, he said, appealed to tbe women resi¬ dents. "I wouldn't trade in Rockville Cen¬ tre, because the stores don't have what I want." he sold he had been frequent¬ ly told. He sold be explained to pros- pctlve buyers that they might be sur¬ prised if they visited the local trades¬ men, but the womeif residents Insisted they could do better in thie city. Thi merchants, Mr. Winslow said, were complaining of this very thing— that the town's people were not coming to their stores, except in emergency. He admonished the mercha&ts to pro¬ duce the same attractions here as there are in New Tork and Brooklyn, and said that if they didn't there would be an influx of chain stores, which are already contemplating establishing branohes here. Shirt shops, candy shops, ready-to-wear clothing houses, corset maaufaoturers, and other big, businesses which had progressed through co-operation, were considering RockvUle Centra as a fertile fleld. Mr. Winslow sold that the New Tork newspapers were carrying great dis¬ play advertisements, alt announcing methods of saving money, while the Review contained very few adrertlsa- ments of attractito offerings at the Rocinrille Centre stores. While admit¬ ting that the local merchants could not compete with the New York merchants on so large a scale, t>ecauBe they were not catering to so large a fleld, he pointed out that the lock of persentlng offerings was perhaps partly responsi ble for tbe ignorance c^ tlia purchasing public of tbe wares cbtalaaMe In tbe village. Au to the discount sretem, Mr. Wln^ s!ow sold that the average population of tHe village might be divided as SO per cent mothers. 10 per cent fathers and tt) per oen childrOa. "Everyone known what money means" he said. 'Hisd Ity giving the public discount checks jfor oaab pay' ments for cariryiug the purchases, they will understand the yatuo clearly. It teaches the child the lesson of saving moatgr wtaiob Dad ia wwklng so hard to obtain. Mid wMeb Mothcf knows she must have to exist. Tha discount checks appeal to the whole Itt per c«at ot tbe oomfaunity."

Hempstead. May 19.—W. O. Wood, vice-president and general manager of the New York and Long Island Trac¬ tion Company, announced yesterday, following a meeting of the directors of the company, that a flfteen minute schedule would be put into effect on tha company's lines as soon as the necessary switches can be Installed. This, it was predicted, would be about the flrst of July. The Board of Directors at yester¬ day's meeting authorized the construc¬ tion of the switches and the purchase of the material, which will be Installed as rapidly as possible. One of the switches will be on Front street, east of where the paveinent ends, and the other will be near Greenfield cemetery, considerably to the south of the one already In that vicinity. Beside saving time and allowing cars to pass at the right point, the new switch on Front street will relieve considerable conges¬ tion at the so-called trolley Junction,, by doing away with the necessity- of backing cars onto the "Y" at that point in order to allow otiiet cars to pass. When the new switches are installed a flfteen minute schedule will be main¬ tained from 5:30 a. m. Until 9 p. m., when the half hour schedule will again bec6me effective. Superintendent John M. Stoddard figured that the cost of this extra serv¬ ice would be $125 a day to the.conA pany, but he Is in hopes there will be enough more fares to make up for the extra expense • Th« aotion of the Company in agree¬ ing to this extra service follows closely that of the Village Hoards of Hemp¬ stead and Freeport, placing the buses under the Some conditions as the trol¬ ley lines. The compauiy representatives would ma^e no promises before the ac¬ tion of the Boards was taken, but said simply that they would do the best they could. With the fifteen minute schedule, they will be glylng better service than the trolleys and buses combined do now, as the practice of the buses Is to run Just ahead of the cars and take passengers that would otherwise go to the tt^Ileys. The new schedule will be especially appreciated in Roosevelt, where the people have fought for the buses because of the slight additional service given to that community, which must depend wholly on street lines. f_- TRAFHC corn GET YOU IF YOU DON'T WATCH OUT Hempstead, May 19.—Hempstead automobile drivers and visitors to this village should waich out beginning to¬ morrow, when the new ordinance regu¬ lating traflic goes into efffct. Many residents of this village will have to turn over a new leaf. Other¬ wise they WlU ^jw presented with a "ticket" which will direct them to the town court room. The new ordinance "boiled down" ex¬ presses these "don'ts." Don't allow your car to stand along tbe curb, unless in front of your own place, more than thirty minutes. Put it in tbe parking stands. Don't turn your cars to go in tlie opposite direction, except at street In¬ tersections, on Main street, Fulton ave¬ nue.

Rookville Centre, May 19.—Village Board of Trustees, by resolution last night, decided to impose a charge of $2 for installing an electric meter where the current is used for heating .ind cooking purposes. Heretofore, It was explained, there was no charge for auch service, but since fuse boxes must be installed at a cost of %3, the co.st Is placed on,the consumer. Notice of the change is to be .filed with the Public Service Commission, and will become effective thirty days after. Tha board referred to the light and power committee for Investigation and report, the application of L. Loomis, for electric light service. His hou.se is said to be about 1200 feet from the end of the present service line, and it is estimated it will cost about $250 to erect poles and supply electricity. Trustee Reynolds requested the board to have a auaoended light placed at the Intersection of Merrick road, Lincoln and Centre avenues. The request fol¬ lowed a report that Harold Rifenberg, special trafflc offlcer, had been struck by a motorcycle Saturday night, because of the darkness at this spot. The board Instructed Chief Engineer Major to place the light in position. Park Avenue Drain More discussion developed over the problem of draining the corner of Park avenue and Observer street of the pool of water that settles there. Engineer Voorhis reported that as the railroad company had refused to grant permis¬ sion to connect with its drain, when such permission was sought to provide, drainage for Front street, he did not believe it would grant permission at this time to connect a pipe from Park avenue. The board decided to send a letter making the request. An alternate plan of draining the water to Merrick road was explained by Engineer Voorhis. He said the grade would make it necessary to slope the ground toward Merrick road, and in do¬ ing so cause the building of a gutter at the Merrick road Into which automo¬ bile wheels were likely to catch. The original plan advocated by. En¬ gineer- Voorhis, of building a cement gutter along Observer street to Village avenue received support from 1l-ustee Brlsman, who said that he had received complaints that water settled along Ol>- server street, lihs plan, it was admit¬ ted, would Rectify both conditions. Trus- tee Longenecker, Street Commissioner Patten and Knglneer Voorhls will con¬ fer fnd malt a -positive report at the next ^oaeetlng. Other Matters Considered The board decided to purchase suf¬ flcient tarvla to spread over the roads and prevent them from breaklgg up. A letter of thanks for the removal of ashes was received from Minerva Franklin of 24 Park place, who ap¬ pended a request that something be done to put the street In condition. The railroad company has spresd ashes be- tween the tracks. The matter was re¬ ferred for Investigation. Philip Rellly of Mt. Vernon, who wants to build a house at Forest and Jefferson avenues, requested the board to provide blm with water. Tbe matter wa4 referred to the committee with power to act. Tbe btiard authorized the purchase of a carload of pipe for water extension purposes, from the Central Foundry, at a price of 7« cents per foot. Tntatee Srisman reported contracts for repairing the toilet In the Defender Hosa Company quarters had been let to T- Sbanahan', on a bid of $66, and for painting tbe bouse to Bmptra Painting Oagtianr wa a bid of 116.
