CLARA K1INTENBURe,s DEATH.
Two LonG lslnnd College Hospital students II
Trouble Over 1t.

K. Lie Forest Swan and Nathaniel Rnthburn,
members Of the graduating class in the Long
Island College Hospital in Brooklyn, but not
yet licensed to practice, are likely to be involved
in trouble with the health authorities through
their connection with the case of Miss Clara
Klintenburg, who died in her furnished room
at 625 Baltic street on Nov. Q. Miss Klinten-
burg was 90 years old, and until last sum-
mer had been employed as n servant in the
family of Student Swan, at 800 Carleton
avenue. On Oct. % she was taken i'll with
pneumonia and sent for young Swan to attend
her. Swan was engaged that evening and sent
his fellow student, Rathburn, to the Baltic
street house. Rathburn found that the young
woman was suffering from pneumonia and was
about to become a mother. Rathburn and
Swan, as alleged, prescribed for the patient be-
Lafayette avenue in consultation. Two days
preceding her death the patient gave birth to q
dead infant, which the students carried Off and
placed in alcohol without going through the
legal Formally OF filing q notice with the health
authorities. :

the certificate which was furnished by DIR. Sim

that DIR. Simmons had suggested to him. md
Rathburn that they had best report the birth
and death of the babe to the Health Depart.
ment, but that as the young woman had begged
them not to mako her disgrace public, they had
decided that they were justified in secretly dis

ORGANIZATION OF THE ASSEMBLY.

Omelnl Canvaenes Confirm Republican Claims
Democratic to stand AlooE.
Chairman Hackett Of the Republican State
Committee received reports yesterday giving
the result of the official canvass of tho vote for
Assemblymen in most Of the counties of the
State. These have in every case confirmed the
claims of the Republicans, based on the unofl-
cial count, regarding the election of a majority
of Republican Asemblymen. An example is
furnished by the official canvass in Essex
county, where the Democrats claimed q plural.
ty Of IL for their candidate. The Republican
candidate is elected by $50 plurality. II tho
official canvass Of the vote in Kings and New
York counties makes no change from the I'M
official ret4rns-and no changes are anticipated
the Republicans will have 70 Assemblymen.
Senator Jacob A. Cantor, the Democratic
leader in the upper house at. Albany, said yes
THE Democrats in the Legislature will mako
no combination with the Citizens Union nor
troll Of the assembly. The Republicans may
fight it out among themselves. No overtures
from the CitIsens or the disaffected Republic
cans win be listened to. 1t may be that the
Democrats may be able to organize the Assem-
bly,, with the aid Of some Republicans. Such
cratic solicitation and will be unaccompanied
by conditions. The Democrats at Albany will
be q unit In opposition TO the Republican leRis-
lative policy. For that reason q combina-
ton with the Republicans is without the realm,
Senator cantor suggested Assemblyman
Palmer of Schoharie county as the probable
Democratic candidate for Speaker. That que,-
ton, however, no said, had not been settled,
and the candidates from this city are still in the

JACOB WORTH REPUDLATED.
No Help for Him from the Cita in His Warfare
Against Senator Plat.

All the Citizens Union committeeman in
Brooklyn repudiate the statement of Jacob
Worth that organizations are to be formed in
all the leading cities of the State under its d.
rection SO as to compass the downfall of Senator
Platt. They deny that any such movement has
been projected or that they are in any way re-
Bponsible for Worth's latest pronunciamento.
Indeed, most Of them are strongly opposed to
the Worth programme. Ex-JudRe Hiram r.
Steele, Chairman Of the Committee of Fifty, tho
Cits' Union Brooklyn annex, said yesterday:
9TH Brooklyn Citizens Committee was or.
ganized for q specific purpose with reference to
tho municipal campaign, and having completed
its labors has practically disbanded. So far as I
know tho committee has no intention of going
into any permanent organization. There will
be On important State election and q Presi-
dental election before another municipal cleo
tion, and 1 am in hope that some plan may DO
carried out by which all Republicans and friends
Of good government may be united in support Of

The dinner OF the members of tho Architec-
tural Leaque last night. at tho Fine Arts build.
ing, 21B West Fifty .seventh street. was made
the occasion of an entertaining discussion OF tho
proposed new small parks. Ono hundred archi.
tects and members OF the Sculpture Society
were present. Bruce Price, President Of the

Sketches of tho laying out and ornumcntation
Of the city block, 200xs0O feet, between
Twcnty-eiRhth and Twenty.ninth streets and
Ninth and Tenth avenues. as a park, were dis
played, and It was these that lod to tho debate.
The most spirited participant In the debate was
+. s.. Lamb. who had submitted n sketch in
which 90 per cent. of tho block was devoted to
q playground for children. He declared that
tho providing Of Fairgrounds for the children
was Of paramount Importance in building the
park.
"In our own great Central Park have walked
with my boy often" he said, "a distance Of two
and a half miles and found not a foot OF grass
upon which the boy could play. Everywhere
were signs warning him to keep off, When
we visit even the Common we have to look up
and see IL tho blue ball or the red ball is up on q
pole before We know that we can venture on
the green there. Call that a public park 1 call
1t an outrage and II ought to be romediod, and 1t
will be romedied."
Architect George b. Post said that in building
'hO Nv" 10 M ~ fe' NNNrpe Nhbb
architects and sculptors should cooperate to
attain the best artistic results obtainable. He
reminded the company that 1t would be Mayor
Van Wyck's duty to appoint six expert men,
bers Of an art commission, and that the Fine
Arts Federation was empowered by the new
charter to name not less than eighteen
candidates, from whom tho Mayor is to
select tho six experts. Other speakers
