OHANA IN FOX HIS MlNIAhEs
Corporation Counsel jerks of Brooklyn. Yesterday
made public the letter which he wrote Mr. Gaynor
Monday, acknowledging the receipt Of the amended
complaint in the suit OF William ZegIer against Mayor
Alfred c. Chaplin, Theodore F. Jackson and Thomas b.

of the Long Island Water supply Company for

absolute right and see no reason why should con.

The last Of the letter confirms the stato-
mcnt, already made that the Mayor did not wish to
submit his case 10 a jury and that every possible
effort would be made TO keep the confined 10
questions of law.
The ring has reached that degree OF desperation
that il has been decided to carry the idea which
suggested it by the letters of seth L. Keeney.
Mr.. Kceney, shortly before the argument, wrote
letter saying he thought that tho property was
worth what the city paying for il, and ,ignfyins
his wngncs, 70 be ~ ten to buy 1t at that price
if the city did not want to carry out its contract
The hungry have an idea gathered from that
letter and have a syndicate foot which intends %

that pr.cel"
Certainly" was the answer. "The city's got 10
buy it, and II we get il well make 'em pay 100000
the next time You bet were going to make the
city take that"
Another great advantage in this scheme is that more
hungry could be provided for AID that Is by no
means slight gain just now. Some were left In

Navy officer he believes that It would be dangerous to
put up the poles again. To make his complaint more

declares is an element Of danger. The storm Of Jan

In concluding his argument he held that, con-
cedng all the facts averred I'm the petition, the
question of the jurisdiction of the Alaskan court
depends upon the extent Of the dominion of tho
