MAP OFlAIPROVElMElVTS
Would Give Citizens an Idea of
 Deal With Railroad.

At present when almost all the tax. payers of this city are discussing the agreement between the city and the New York, New Haven X Hartford, when many of them are having heat cd arguments over the same and q few until the agreement was heard of had been the best of friends are after each others scalp, because of spirited arguments the question is be- ing asked why is there not map showing the condition agreed to, placed in some prominent widow of the town. Those who have made the inquiry are of the opinion that 1t would relieve the minds of those who are unacquainted with the situation and the citizens could readily see where they are at. City Engineer Cairns was asked to-day if any such map was to be placed oI exhibition and he answered that as far as be knew none would be drawn for that purpose. He stated that it would cost about $2OO to get such map in readiness and although he had pro- posed such q thing, it did not meet the favor of the persons who have the say, so the matter was dropped. Mir Cairns thinks that it would be very good thing, although the cost would seem big. The original may could not be placed on exhibition.

NO FRIENDS. NO MONEY.
Sat Down on Bank Street To-day Bee
 moaning His Fate.

Gateano Dileo, a man about 30 years of age. created sensation at the corner of Bank and Grand streets shortly before noon to-day. With the aid of a stick he walked from his boarding house at 76 Canal street. where he has been confined for the past two months suffering from rheu- matism. and managed to keep on his feet until he reached Bank street, where he sat down beside telegraph pole. Soon he attracted the atten- tion of Police Officer John Brickel, who had him removed to the police station, after which he was cared for by Superintendent Morris of the board of charities. To one of his countrymen Dileo said that he had no money and no friends and not being able to do anything towards helping himself he took the first on- portunity to gte out and call public attention to his needs. He-has been fin this country about year and a half. most of the time in Waterbury, and the few dollars he had saved up quickly disappeared after he became ill.

LORD BRAMPToN DEAD.
Played Noted Part in Trials
Known as Hanging Judge,

Known as Hanging Judge.
LONDON. October Lord Brampton,
who was Sir Henry Hawkins. is dead
He was born in 1917.
AS Sir Henry Hawkins Lord Brampton
won fame. because Of his severity to
wrongdoers, as the hanging judge After
his retirement in 1898 he was raised to
the pee-age. Lord Brampton came from
a family of lawyers. His father was a
solicitor in considerable practice at
Hitchin, the little old Hertfordshire town
where Lord Brampton was born. He had
brother who was q member Of the
chancery bar, but who displayed none of
the qualities which made Sir Henry IA
nous. His first footing on the forensic
ladder was obtained at the Hertfordshire
sessions, when his family influence en-
abled him to come into prominence i'm.
mediately after he was called to the bar.
He was on the closest terms Of friend
whose life he largely modelled his own,
and to whose position in the legal world
he practically succeeded when that cele-
brated Q. c. was disbarred. Sir Henry
Hawkins was essentially a man Of iron
will. who preferred his own opinion about
case to that of any one else. In muir
der cases he always insisted on having
every door in the court house closed at
the beginning Of his address to the jury,
and kept closed until the end He played
a. great part In many famous trials, nota-
bly, the Tichborne case. In which his clear.
quence Of late Lord Chief Justice Cock
burn. conciusively proved the late ITCH
borne claimant to be Arthur Orton He
was elevated to the bench In 1870.

Duration"
AS there is no public fund available for
the expenses incident to the conduct oe

cent meeting decided to request contrihu.
tons from interested persons. and they

moplilsts, The second point will ba
whether the state of Maryland has any
jurisdiction whatever over the Conduit
road-that is, whether that road Is under
the jurisdiction of Marylan or the United
States.
Expresses Confidence.
There Is absolutely no question that
the test case will be successful" Mr..
Leckie said today. After a careful and
painstaking examination of the law,
have no doubt but that both points will
be decided in favor of the Washington
Automobiles; that the state OF Mary
land has absolutely no jurisdiction over
the Conduit road. II being exclusively
United States territory, II having been
conceded to the general government by
act of legislature of Maryland in 1853, and
while in that act attempt was made
by the state of Maryland to retain con-
current jurisdiction over the road, the
authorities are unanimous that the United
states government cannot hold concur
rent jurisdiction with any state: that in
all cases where a state has attempted to
retain concurrent Jurisdiction with the
United States the courts have uniformly
held that the United States had exclusive
Jurisdiction.
Much interest is being manifested in
the outcome of the test case and the hope
was expressed by local automobllists to-
day that sufficiently large defense fund
may be raised.

CHILDREN STABBED BY RIPPER
Berlln Parents Terorizsd and German City

Berlin, Germany.-Unparalle in

OF a man who slashed three little
girls in this city, cutting open their
stomachs with sharp weapon and
then making his escape before an
alarm could be given. The entire

The crimes of the man have struck

every mother in tho city to keep her
little ones off the street and to watch
them at home. Hardly a child could
be seen playing in the street after
news of his acts became known.

New York City.-The most sensa-
tlonal fire in the history of Coney
Island ate thirty-five acres out of the
heart of that resort in twice as many
minutes.
The fam o. licked up steeple-
chase Park and other property
which cannot be replaced for less
than $750,000, and on which the
owners place a speculative value of
million and a half
The fire started in a barrel of
sweepings, mostly paper, gathered up
in the park and stored over night
under the Cave of Winds.
Starting at 3.55 a. M. the fire
was not entirely out until after
p. m.
A fireman and two boys were so
seriously burned and injured that
they are likely to die. Twenty-Five
firemen and patrolmen and a hun
dred hotel guests and residents suf-
fered painful burns and cuts from
broken glass There were scores of
narrow escapes from fire-trap hotels
and daring rescues beyond count.
The fire started in George G. Til
you's Steeplechase Park, in almost
the identical spot where a small fire
was discovered at 10 o'clock the
night before, and which was put out
without public alarm.
There is grave suspicion that
both were of incendiary origin pos
sibly started by one of many foreign
workmen recently discharged.
Since last Christmas Mr.. Tilyou
has received no less than five Black
Hand letters demanding large sums
of money and threatening his life and
the destruction of the, amusement
place if it was not Forthcoming. The
last of these letters was received Fri
day and resulted in extra guards be-
ing put about the park
After devastating the park the fire
rapidly destroyed the Coney Island
Post Office, thirteen hotels, six bath
ing pavilions, three cafes, Dip the
Dip Uncle Sans Cannon Ride and
fifty stands and small buildings.
Owing to the almost prohibitive
rates which prevail at Coney Island,
practically no insurance was carried
For time it seemed that the
fiameS would sweep the entire amuSe-
ment district, including Luna Park
and Dreamland. The direction of the
driving wind, the extreme pressure
of salt water from dozen mains of
the lately installed system, and the
bravery and persistence of firemen
and citizen volunteers combined to
save the remainder of the resort
Everybody was working shoulder
to shoulder. Circassian girls were
helping snake-charmers, gypsy for
tune-tellers and Greek peanut ven
ders; Armenians and Japanese with
negroes and Italians were pulling
and shouting in as many languages,
but all working for the same end.
The drawer men returned to find
here and there some overtired man
or boy asleep amid all the tumult and
confusion. These, awakened, were
led or dragged to safety and then
some one bethought of San Dora, the
armless and legless freak.
He was found trying to wriggle
himself to safety. He was carried
out and some one soon after liberated
forty monkeys confined in a cage.
Their almost human cries az they fed
over walls and roofs added to the
confusion. A cage of trained dogs
was opened and the frightened ami
mails fled to the beach, where their
trainer found them afterward.
