Fortunately for Katharine b. Davis,
Commissioner of Correction, she did
not nut the diamond bRooch presented
10 her by keepers of the city prisons IN

HALTS CITY DUMP PLAN
Court Grants Temporary In
junction TO Protect River.

Justice Gavegan yesterday granted
an injunction pendente lite restraining
the City of New York from carrying
out plans for the erection OF a garbage
dump along the North River front
from Seventy-seventh 10 Seventy-ninth
streets, and facing Riverside Drive.
The injunction was granted on the APP
plication Of the Riverdale Realty Com
pany. which had the active support of
the West End Association, some OF
whose members own property in the
neighborhood Of the proposed site for
the dump.
II was contendcd that the dump
would seriously affect real estate
values, and cause many residents TO
move. Justice Gavegan expressed the
view that the erection of the building
near the residential district would con-
stitute a nuisance because II would be
illegal. The injunction VIII remain IN
eject until the matter IS tried on the
suit Of fthe Riverdale Realty Company
for a permanent injunction.

Some time before March p, when the
ste lmship Nasari starts again on ler
Journey to Buenos Ayres, the lmmlgra-
ton authorities of this port Will have
TO reckon with Nathan Cohen, pedler,
who, for more than year, has been
made to play the part Of the Wander
ing Jew by the memorable immigration
laws Of this country.
No nation in the world Will take
him. b. strange circumstance OF the
law, Ne York has twice driven HIM
from these shores, but to-day Nathan
sits contentedly behind the locked
doors of the Nasari's hospital, happy
in the thought that some day he may
be free to live a. other men.
Since May, 1912, Cohen has travelled
80. 7lO miles, and all it has cost him Is
Si5. the price Of his steerage ticket
from Rio de Janeiro to this port.
Insanit is the reason given by ne
immigration officials for their persist
ency in keeping Cohen out of America,
but Dr.. 5. A. Davis, surgeon OF the
Vasari. declared yesterday that the
Jewish pedler IS in full possession OF
his mind. He is confident that any
court of alienists will so adjudge his
charge.
DeportoI as Insane.
Nathan Cohen came here as steer
age passenger on the Lamport & H3lt
liner Vasari in May. 1912. On ar
rival, he was taken with the other I'M
migrants to Eilis Island. lie had sew,
eral thousand dollars with him, and
said he was going to Virginia to en-
gage in business with a relative near
Richmond. He was then thirty-t o
Years oil and he so impressed the ON +,
cials that he was permitted to lana
and buy his ticket for the South.
Nothing was heard from Cohen for
two wears. but the attention OF the
immigration officials in Virginia was
attracted by his strange actions m
February. 1914 The pedler was
promptly brought back here and after
bis record had been found he was or,
dercd deported on the Lamport and
Holt liner Vandyck on March Of
that year. The medical board decided

ship company was ordered to return
him to Rio de Janelro.
Rio would not accept him. Cohen
had said when he was admitted to this
country that he had lived in Rio as
long as he could remember, but had
TO idea where he was born. Brazil
would not take him, so Captain Cado-
gan Of the Vandyck was ordered to
keep him on board. 1t was the same
story at all the South American ports
where the Nandyck stopped. Cohen
was not wanted, so he was brought
hack by the Nandyck, arriving in New
York on May <, 1914. Ellis Island
took him this time and detained him
in the insane pavilion until January 3
Of this year. when he was put aboard
the NaSari in an enfeebled mental and
physical condition.
Became Ships Mascot.
Captain Cadogan, master Of the Va.
sari. took pity on Cohen and ordered
that he receive the best of attention,
although he knew that the pedler
would be rejected at the various ports,
as he had been on the previous trip
Fate seemed to put Cohen under the
care OF Captain Cadogan, as the skip
per was assigned again to the COM
mand of the Nasari after the German
cruiser Karlsruhe had captured the
Nandyck.
The skipper said he had come to
look upon Cohen as a sort of mascot
and'visited him every day of the voy-
age. On the return on the second trip,
which ended here last Sunday, Cohen
had made remarkable recovery. He
had improved physically and all traces
of his mental trouble had disappeared.
The immigration officials, however,
did not want the wandering pedler
again on their hands and the Nasari
was met at Quarantine by an inspector,
who informed Captain Cadogan that
the man must not be taken from the
Nasari.
During the 245 days Cohen was de-
tanned in the insane pavilion at Ellis
Island he cost the steamship company
S735 for maintenance.
