DISGUST At FAR ROcKAWAY.
Bathers Cant Go the Garbage
that Continually Comes Ashore.
Watermelon Rind Necklaces and a
Tomato Shampoo.

FAR ROCKAWAY. L. l., Aug. O.
Much indignation IL expressed here
among the cottagers and Summer hotel
guests over the quantity of garbage and
refuse matter that floats ashore daily
dumped OFF shore here.
Many stories are told by Individual
guests of their experience in dodging
this stun while in bathing. one young
woman ran foul OF the dead body of a
cat; another found hei neck encircled
by watermelon rind. The bathing
dress OF another was profusely decorated
with old cabbage leaves. Corn husks
covered the bald head OF one male
swimmer. while the contents of an old
and over-ripe tomato trickled over the
face of another.
This refuse has BEEN particularly thick
and offensive during :he past few days.
The hutelmcn are as much incensed over
1t as the boarders, as 1t hurts their bust
ness
John J. Rogers. proprietor OF the Uni
tel States Hotel to-day told reporter
that "A man and his wife. whose name he
declined to reveal, registered at his
hotel yesterday with the intention Of
spending some time there. They antici-
pated enjoying the surf bLthlng.
When they saw the scum of the gar
bage scows strewn along the Beach
they abandoned the idea OF bath with
dis1ust and returned to the hotel. They
said that IL the water was no cleaner
to-day they would return TO their home.
This only an expression of the feeling OF
others.
MIR. Rogers further said:

prietor of a ba thing house on the beach.
1t would appear to be to his interest to

HOW ABOUT THE TEA MARKET?
There Are 100000 Pounds
Here and as Much More Coming.
Spectators May Make the War an
Excuse for a "Corner."

There is good deal of talk to-day
among tea merchants regarding the pos
sibe effect Of continued war between
China and Japan on the price OF tea.
1t was learned that retail dealers are
somewhat apprehensive Of a movement
on the part Of the big downtown houses
to create a corner in the finer grades Of
the fragrant herb, with the present trou-
Bile as an excuse for their action.
An Evening World" reporter who Wis
tied several of the larger dealers. both
in the retail and the importing trade,
found that there was a diversity Of
opinion existing as to the probability of
u rise in tea. . ... ...
Mr. Irving, who has control Of the big
tea importing business conducted by Car
ter. Macy & Co., 40 Pearl street, was
somewhat reluctant to talk about the
matter to,day. but finally admitted that
already a slight upward tendency in
prices had been noticed. which, wnie it
was so slight that 1t Was not apprecia BILE
Client to Indicate what might happen.
Mr. Irving limited that In the event of
long-continued hostflities between China
and Japan there was no telling where
the price OF the cloice grades OF tea
might Jump to.
7. B: Smith. manager OF the Atlantic
and Pacific Tea Company. in Vesey
street, thought there was little danger
OF very big jump in the price OF teas
even II the war lasted six months.
There is" he said, "a big lot OF tea
In New York to-day. Fully 10000, 900
pounds came into the market within the
last few weeks, and htere Is almost as
much more on the way. As the average
consumption is between 5OOCO0oO and
5000. 900 pounds year, you see that the
stock on hand would last the greater
part OF a year.
THE English merchants have such n
large interest In the business that there
Is little danger OF the ports being closed
Only the choicer grades OF Formosa teas
would he affected any way"
Bennett Co., who do IA large retail
tea business, were not so sure about the
price OF tea not being run up.
The danger" said Mr. Bennett, lies
In the fact that the spectators may
take It into their heads to corner the
market and then look out"
peculiar fact In connection with the
tea question is revealed by recent de-
spa tches. which state that since the
trouble between China and Japan broke
out tea has dropped cent a pound at

ARRESTED AFTER THE 0UTIAG
stuyvesant Club Member Charged
with Disorderly Conduct.
Greenwald in Turn Accuses Police
man Conway.

BENJAMIN Greenwald, thirty years old
of 1874 East One Hundred and Eighth
street, member Of the Stuyvesant
Club, was arraigned in Harlem Court
this morning, charged by Policeman
James H. Conway, OF the East One Hun
bred and Fourth street station. with
having acted in disorderly manner
last night at One Hundred and Eighth
street and Third avenue.
The Stuyvesant Club had a clam-bake
and picnic yesterday at College Point,
and when the boys returned ,sn,r , az s soous
on One Hundred and Sixth street, near
Third avenue, they were welcomed by
a crowd of friends. Bonfires were blaz-
ing, and Third avenue In ia the ~, vicinity chany
ing crowds
In arraigning Greenwald, Policeman
Conway said that he found the prisoner
building bonfires and making a great
noise. He also interfered with the Off
Ger when the latter was clearing the
street Of women who were obstructing
the sidewalk.
pushing his way along Third avenue at
one Hundred and Eighth street he met
Policeman Conway, who saluted him
with Hello. Ben" moment Later,
ing grufiiy to some women, among them
being Mrs. Amelia Storms. who Keeps a
newsstand at One Hundred and seventh
street and Lexington avenue. The po-
liceman, Greenwald says, was more
harsh than was necessary.
Don't abuse those women that way,
said Greenw6ld.
Conway made some gruff reply, but
after exchanging few words with him
Greenwald says he took the policeman
into saloon and treated him. About
fifteen minutes later Greenwald says
that Conway again began to abuse the
women. Greerwald again demonstrated,
and Conway, with an OATH said:
Now I've got you," and took Green
wald to the station house, where charge
of disorderly conduct was made.
When Greenwald's fellow club members
heard OF his arrest they sent for Leopold
Kreilsheimer, of 1869 Third avenue. who
gave bonds tor Greenwald's release.
Greenwald then wanted to make charge
of drunkenness against the policeman,
but the sergeant refused to take It.
Louis Greenwald. a brother of the
prisoner, said that Conway could not
be found at IL. o'clock last night, he
having refused to answer roll call. He
said that another officer, who was sent
by the Sergeant to Conway's home.
found the latter lying on the bed in his
uniform, and that he had been, drinking.
Conway denied that he had been
drinking. While making the charge this
morning he appeared perfectly sober.
Among the policemen of the precinct
Conway bears good reputation.
