EXPRESSES no 18TH STREET.
Perempto DRY Order TO Use the Third Track
in the Tunnel.

The Rapid Transit Commission unanI-
mously adopted yesterday "A resolution
directing the Interborough company to
operate an express service between the
Nlnety-sixth street and I37th street sta
tions Of the Broadway section OF the sub
way. The express trains will be run over
the third track. which has hitherto been
used by the company for the storage Of cars.
The change must be made in three days.
The matter was brought up when a dele
cation Of the Washington Heights Tax
payers Association, headed by ex-Corpora-
ton Counsel John Whalen, presented a
petition urging the board to compel the
use OF the third track for trains between
Ninety-sixth street and i45th street. Mr..
Whalen n other spokesman OF the dele
CATION declared that the third track had
been built by the city al an expense of about
81, 100 900 and was intended under h terms
of the contract for the operation OF express
trains. and not for the storing Of cars, and
that the pressure of traffic demanded that
the track should be restored to this use.
General Manager Hedley Of the Inter-
borough company said that the saving to
travellers by running the express trains
on the third track would not he more than
a minute and a half. while local passengers
would be inconvenienced by the resultant
delay on the local track. Also, the neces-
sity Of switching the trains from the double
track to the single track might lead to a
serious accident.
Chief Engineer Rice Of the commission
estimated that the saving would be about
three minutes. He also pointed out that
the local trains run only as far as 18th
street, where the third track is used to
switch the local trains back to the down.
town track. Under present conditions il
would be impossible therefore to use the
third track for express trains further north
than I37th street, He suggested that the
better way to meet the demand for adj
ditionaI facilities in the upper part of the city
would be to build a TUNE loop to turn the
local trains around in.
Ii was on the motion of Mayor Mcclellan
that the resolution directing the oompanE
to run express trains to l37th street was
adopted.
The Behr monorail system is likely TO be
installed between Brooklyn and Coney
Island. The promoters have applied for a
franchise TO build the line at their w ex-
pense. As a preliminary the commission
Yesterday adopted a resolution to consider
the advisability of erecting q further
elevated structure in Brooklyn.

Gabrielle Lauzetti was not known by any
Italian in the city as far as could be learned,

The Colt Hill section, where Iauzetti was

All the COPS IN cars NON.
New Headgear Went on Duty Yesterday
Some queer Fits.

The old helmets with which the police
have peer rooted in for many years were
retired yesterday and every policeman
in the city, from inspector down, APP
peared in rhe same kind Of headdress, for
the first time, it is said, in the history Of
the force. They are all wearing the cap
with the visor and baggy top. which was
aready worn by the cavalry cops for some
time.
The rough weather qualities Of the new
caps we're tested on the first day, for the
cops had hardly turned out in them before
the wet snow began to fall. A rubber
cape protecting the back Of the neck fits
on the cap for such weather. The cops
who hadn't brought out the cape had to
keep unloading their new headgear OF snow.
Commissioner Bingham believes that the
caps improve the appearance Of the men
Some Of the policemen, from their appear
ance yesterday, seem to have ordered
caps OF extra size. The brims came down
to their ears, and the baggy tops we're
inflated with their heads. Worn this way
the caps were not jsunty.
Most OF the cops aren't enthusiastic over
the change.

Newspaper reporters and the public
were completely fooled by Mr.. Heney in
regard to the indictments. Instead Of
being returned his afternoon they were
actually agreed upon by the Grand Jury
late yesterday afternoon. but Heney did
not have tinc u prepare the indictments
as he wanted them to be made out, so the
formal announcement vas postponed until
this afternoon at 4 o'clock.
A curious feature Of the aHair il thai at
a great mass meeting just before the last
election for Mayor. when Heney announced
that Ruef was a crook and he could prove
il. Heney then had all the facts in the ex-
tortion cases Of Blanco. Heney counted
on the election Of Partridge, Republican
can didate for Mayor. and hence he ex-
pected to be able to use this information
before the Grand Jury. When Sohmitz
was elected and Ruef deRed Heney to fur
nish proof hat would bear out his charge.
Heney had to take water. because to have
given his facts at that time would ave
spoiled the case.
Judge Murasky signed a bench warrant
for the arrest Of Ruef and Schmitz, fixing
bail at $40 900 on each count. This would
make $4,000 for Ruef. Schmitz ia still on
the high seas. Ruef telephoned early in the
evening that he hoped TO secure bondsmen
who would qualify b efore he was served
with the warrant.
Besides the French restaurant proprietors
whose names figure in the indictments. the
following witnesses testified before the
Grand Jury:
II. H. Young, who was a member of the
Grand jury and who for this reason was
excused from the jury; N. NJ. Adler and Jean
LOUSY, restaurant proprietors; Thomas
Regan, J. A. Drinkhouse and II. W. Hutton,

a lawyer, and J. p. Donahue, a Chrnnicle
