PARKWAY TO BE EXTENDED
New Approach Will Be Five
Miles Nearer New York.

The management Of the Long Island mo-
tor parkway has decided 10 bring the
western terminus Of that highway five
miles nearer to the city. This will obviate
the necessity OF travelling over bad roads.
At present the entrance 10 the parkway
is at Great Neck. This is reached from
New York either By way Of Flushing or
Jamaica The former route, which runs
through Little Neck, covers fourteen miles
from the Greensboro Bridge. The latter
route. by way Of Hillside avenue and Jer-
icho Turnpike 20 New Hyde Park, is sew
enteen miles Ions.
II is the intention Of the management
to extend the parkway in a westerly direc-
ton toward Hillside avenue. This latter
point will shorten the route some I'VE
miles avoiding detours and will bring
what vii. be called the Rocky Hill Road
ledge 10 within quarter OF a mile OF Hill
side avenue Originally II was intended 70
have this extension completed by October
/. but the clamor FOR better roads in
Queens has been so pronounced that the
management will make an effort to have
IL completed by September :.

iodorus. the reactionary leader.
Recently tthe Holy synod announced
the transference of the priest from Tsar-

dorus they took a solemn vow not to
sleep. eat or drink until the order OF the
Holy Synod has been rescinded. Thous-
ands of persons are cooped up In the
church, where a service with lighted
candles continues uninterruptedly day and
night. Many of the worshippers are on
the point of suffocation and the suffer-

1891 he was credited with leading the

to provide for specific report as to
whether any dishonest practices or
actual violations of law exist in state
departments, after two amendments
being offered, one by Mr.. Pattangall,
and one by Mr.. Peters, the author OF
the order for further investigation,
was specially assigned in the House
for Wednesday forenoon, with the
possibility of still further amendments
at that time.
The amendment introduced by
Representative Pattangall provides for
the conduct of the further investiga-

during vacation, employ legal counsel
if necessary, and report to the Cover

amendment presented Tuesday morn

further investigation discretionary
with the committee and empowers the
committee to summon witnesses. ad-

which was apparently overlooked by
