operation Of all the leading ministers in the
borough. Typewriter statements were given out
to which were appended the of some thirty
ministers. who. it alleged. had signed articles
in the proposed movement against vice at Coney
Island.
Coney Island Queted down toward night yes
terday only when 1t learned that the crusade could
not be found. Some of the ministers whose names
were appended to Tullys statement as having
subscribed to the movement, denied all knowledge
of it. The Rev. Horace Porter Of Plymouth
Church. Immediately withdrew from the crusade
His explanation follows:
Mr.. Tully called upon me several times. at last
presenting to me large number of leaflets with q
plea for help. morally and otherwise in the work
OF purifying Coney Island. Feeling that signatures

Now that the options on the land for park IN

most expired. the people of that town are becom-
ing anxious and asking Mayor Hoos what Is
the cause of his delay in taking action In the
