VIII BUILD LOOP AT ANY COST.

says Mr. IittlctOn.

President Martin W Littleton Of the
borough of Brooklyn had this to say yes
terday in regard to Mayor McClellan's
opposition TO the elevated loop plan
through Centre street for connecting the
two bridges:
he said that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
Company was welded to tho Centre street
route, and would build no other. Evidently
the Mayor either did not reHd or he has for
gotten the contents OF the letter which the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company. through
the Committee Of Twenty-Five sent to the
RAPID Transit tommiss ION. In that. letter
II was distinctly stated TINT the company
was prepared 10 build the loop at any cost
and over any route II the Centre street
street route. or the loop cnn be built through
private property. and the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company will undertake the work
Just as soon as the authorities say the word
Ot course the company would not undertake

II would be- Of no me- to anybody

peCted. and each new terminal will give us
only more trouble. The only remedy is the
adoption o. plan which insures continuois

This outery on the other side OF the river
over an elevated loop seems strange In view
the fact that when Chief Engineer Parsons
OF the Rapid Transit Commission reported
IN favor OF extending the Manhattan el"-
waited lines there was no opposition Why
the tunnels over there end in elevated roads
In this case an aesthetic within l. preventing
the cn-ly accomplishment OF an urgently
needed public Improvement Mayor Nc
tlellan Is wrong. The people OF Brooklyn
want bridge relief and they want it quickly
II the l. loop is not built then relief must
be had by some other means. and the only her
means are tunnels | have an idea that his al.

proposed loop. As soon as thatloop be built and

lines the transportation problem In Brooklyn
Will be solved. at least for the present Then
there would be no need OF the citys spending
iifty millions Of dollars for subways in this
borough. Now who would build these sub
ways9 The Belmont people. OF course
My opinion is that the Belmont forces are
behind this unreasonable opposition to the
proposed loop. Not that I question the
Mayors motives. J Hrn sure he is entirely
honest in his opposition bur no ia unwise In
allowing an aesthetic whlm 10 interfere with
an Improvement which Is 4 great public
necessity.
President Littleton has called a meeting
Of the Committee Of Twenty-Five for further
discussion Of the loop plan

Chu Mung. an On Leong Tong man
known throughout Chinatown as Tom Lees
wardman. came to grief yesterday. Tho
Hip Sing longs are jubilant, for they won
victory in the police court. II was rather
an unusual experience for them.
The Rev HUE Kim is an Americanized
Chinaman. He wears D. D. after his name
and he Is a member Of the Board of Missions
He is several things besides. notably
Presbyterian minister. cousin of HUE
Tong. and his enemies say he is the real
head Of the Hip Sing Tong. Supt. McClin-
took of the Parkhurst Society. who knows
several things about gambling in China
town, says the On Leong longs we're after
HUE Kim when they killed his cousin,
HUE Tong, short time ago. at II Mott
street. to the strains Of flute.
HUE is Supt McClintock's right hand
man in his gambling crusade. In his
capacity as missionary HUE is able 10
give the police valuable information. He
doesn't deny that most OF the raids in
Chinatown are the result OF timely tips
furnished by himself Naturally the On
Ieong Tong leaders have little use for
him.
Hip Sing men and their allies say it was
up to Chu Mung TO send HUE to keep his
ancestors company. HUE was a witness
in the Mock Duck shooting scrnpe several
weeks ago when the case came up in police
court and again at the hearing Of the Bow
cry shooting affair few weeks later
On this last occasion Chu Mlng and HUE
Kim met face to face in the corridor Of the
Criminal Courts Building. just what hap
pened is little obscure.
Chu says HUE reached in a suspicious
manner toward mis- hip pocket. HUE says
Gnu soaked him in the Jaw. On Thursday
the two met gain on Mott street. The
performance was evidently repeated, for
HUE shortly after had a vsri-colored eye
and a bullying lip. He complained about II
TO McClintock.
McClintook got a warrant and went after
Chu on FridAy. He found him eating
chop suey. Just as McClintock handed
Chu the paper. he says he saw the China
man reach in his blouse and drop a -
calibre Colts revolver TO the floor.

crept up behind him and dropped the gun
