FEARING THE KNIFE,
RICH SILK BUYER
browns SOUND
Flanders, With Second Opera
ton Pending, Vanishes Oddly
and Is Found Dead.

Although the widow and the brother
OF Frank Flanders. the wealthy silk
buyer who was found drowned yester-
day afternoon near his handsome home
at Whitestone. insist that his death
was due TO an accidental fan, an Eve
ming World reporter learned to-day OF
circumstance which lead to the sus-
picion Of suicide.
Thomas Reilly. whose saloon Is abou
a block from the Flanders villa. said
that a week x Mrs. Flanders called
on him In great distress and asked him
to come up to the house and turn OFF
the gas. She appeared fear-stricken.
and told Reilly that her husband had
threatened to commit suicide and that
she was afraid he would attempt to
asphyXiate himself. Reilly turned off
the gas and since then the family has
used oil lamps and candles.
An additional reason for the suicide
theory is that Flanders was In terror
OF an operation which he was to have
undergone this week In a Flushing hos
pital, -Four months x he became III
with a complication of diseases. One
operation had been performed and the
prospect of another which the surgeons
said was necessary Mortified him. lie
had taken a trip to Europe. hoping for
relief. but had returned unimproved.
The police nave given up working on
the theory OF foul play. Flanders dis
appeared from his home without a word
to his family. at midnight sunday, and
when the body was found. near the
Long Island Railroad pier by Police
man Voorhees,, there was money in the
pockets and a diamond stickpin and
watch and chain were In their places.
There was an abrasion on the fore
head. but he police say This was
caused by a fall from the sea wall.
George Flanders, a brother, said to,
day that Frank Flanders was a lighr
sleeper that he frequently walked GU
at night because his Illness would no
let him sleep, and that he must hav,
fallen, lain TUNED on the sane an,

Hellig Olav Ran to Safety
Between Two Sections
of Giant Cake.
SAME ONE HIT
Came Out of Mist Suddenly

Ing from Copenhagen. Capt. Hoist says
the Helllg Olav nearly collided with
the berg last Friday afternoon and It
was with difficulty that she was dex-
trously steered through a lane which
had opened up between two OF the three
sections into which the mountain OF ice
had been split. presumably by impact
with the Columbia.
The incident occurred at Ave o'clock
In the afternoon. The haze which hung
over the water prevented the lookout
from making out the berg until the ship
was within a short distance of 1t. Cap
tain Hoist saw It almost at the same
tim from the bridge. He noticed the
lane which had opened up and he gave
hurried orders to have the ships course
marked out through this. This was the
only course in which safety lay.
The watery lane was about two city
blocks wide and the passengers had a
splendid view OF the iceberg. Its near
ness rendered the air unusually cool.
None OF the polar bears or walruses al

Befor csailing for Europe to-day on

paid his respects to the trainers OF tho
proposed new charter and denounced
the attempts to push the mcasure
through the Legislature.
The man responsible for this char

Prendergast. II represents his desires
IN city government. There should he
no shifti-g ~ the responsibility. The
frat edition of IL. introduced about
March 30. was prepared in the Office of
the Corporation Counscl undo. the d.
rection Of the Mayor. Everybody now
realizes what an absolute a~trocity this
attempt at a charter was.
THE present draft is a much better
instrument. As far as i,- workmanship
Is concerned. II has been fairly we'll
done. This Is due to the fact thai the
City Committees of the Senate and the
Assembly called to their help a man who
understood how to draw bills and frame
charters. While the literary construc-

III Mr.. Gaynor and his lackeys were
disposed TO frame a good charter for this
city. every one would welcome II. but
they have don exactly the opposite.
What could be worse han the attempt
to concentrate in the hands OF the
Mayor the absolute direction md super
vision of all subway development. I'm
der this new charter he would nave a
veto power owe all plans. routes and
contracts who on earth but himself
ever suggested hat he should have this
power? who wants him to have II but
some Of his Interested friends?
He Is to-day In the position of being
a rank obstructionist, and In the face
OF this palpable fact It Is proposed to
let him say hereafter what routes shall
