CORBIN'S CRUSADE.
He Declares Unc0mpromising War
Against the Hebrews.
National Associated Press to the Star.


New YORK, July 22-The war against
the Jews which was carried on at Saratoga
two years ago is apparently to be renewed
at Coney Island. This time it is in the
quarter where the Jewish residents of New
York City are particularly aimed at. Aus
tin Corbin, President of the Manhattan
Beach Company, has taken an open stand
against admitting Jews to the beuch or to
the hotel. Gilmore, leader of the Manhat-
tan Beach Band, said that Corbin told him
he was going to oppose the Jews, and that
he would rather siuk the two millions in
vested in the railway and hotel than have
a single Israelite take advantage of its at
fractions. Corbin says the Jews are a de-
testable, vulgar and pretentious people,
who expect three times as much for their
money as other people. They give us
more trouble on our road and in our hotel
than we can stand. Another thing is that
they are driving away class of people who
are beginning to make Coney Island the
most fashionable and magnificent watering
place in the WOrld'
