STORM SYNAGOGUE
FOR WAR MOURNING
East Siders Postpone Services
Rabbis Decide on Larger
Meeting Place.

A big mass meeting was to have
been held In the East Side last night
70 consider means of aiding the 9,00O,-
900 Jews in the war lands.
While a great crowd stormed the
gates Of Ohab Zedek Synagogue. 10
Norfolk Street. few Of the 100 rabbis
in convention here gathered in an
ante room. They decided that the syna-
eogue was too small and their mission
too great to shut out the thousands
who wished to be present at the mourn
ing services which would have been
held for the thousands Of Jews who
have persisted in the European struggle.
The meeting will be held next Tues
day night, in the Great Synagogue,
Norfolk Street, near Grand.
The rabbis are here to conduct q
campaign for funds. This money Will
be send to the distressed millions
abroad. II necessary, the Jewish min
listers will canvass the large cities OF
the United States.
Possibly never in the history Of the
race have Jewish spiritual leaders gone
so far as arbitrarily to make the nom
irving of funds a spiritual misde-
meanor. They hold that giving at the
present moment is just as important
as saying the daily prayer. Within
fortnight will commence Rosch-ha-
schonah. the Jewish New Year. and the
rabbis believe that the donations Will
possibly amount to as high sum as
100000.

HAYTI EXPECTED
TO YIELD TO U. 5.
Washington Is Sure of
Agreement Giving Con-
troll of Customs.
From Tbs Tribune Burssu.I

Washington, Aug. 2s.--Although no
news has been received at the State
Department of the acceptance OF the
American proposals for a ten-year trus-
teeship in Hayti, il is confidently ex-
pected in administration circles that
the M asure will go through.
The Haytian Minister here, Scion
Menos, is convinced that the United
States desires only to promote order
and prosperity In his country and that
the proposed plan would be Of mutual
benefit. He hopes for an entente be-
tween the United States and Hayti to
forestall the possibility of European
Intervention. ITO accomplish this he
believes it will be necessary for both
parties to make concessions.
Haytis Parliament has been given
until September II to act on the pro-
posed treaty. In the meantime the AM
erican marines will continue to occupy
the principal cities Of the island to pre-
vent a recurrence Of anarchy.
Officials admitted to-day that IL any
strong European power succeeded in
getting a foothold in the harbor Of
Mole st. Nicholas II would seriously
threaten American control of the
Panama Canal. Germany Is not the
only foreign nation that would like to
have a base in Hayti, it is asserted,
and this government plans to provide
against such aspirations by any Euro
pean power.
Navy Department officials say there
would be no particular advantage for
the United States in possession Of the
Mole, and so long as no European
power possesses it is content TO let

TIGER
AFTER VAN NAME
Democrats Determined to
Elect New Borough
Head This Fall.
POLITICAL CIRCLES
UPSET BY MOVE
Action Based on Contention He's
Constitutional Officer-Fight
May Go to Courts.

Political circles in the Borough Of
Richmond were upset yesterday when
it was, learned that the Democratic or
ganization there had fled notice of
the election of Borough President in
November to succeed Calvin ID. Van
Name.
They base their action on the con-
tention that a Borough President as
a member of the Board OF Aldermen
is a constitutional officer and therefore
whenever a vacancy occurs an appoint
ed successor can serve only until
January /, following the next regular
election. The charter reads:
"Any vacancy in the Office Of presi-
dent thorough shall be filled for the
unexpired term by an election to such
vacancy made by a majority vote of
all members of the board representing
such borough"
In the case Of Aldermen Colne and
Ferrand in BROOKLYN last year the
Court of Appeals decided that an al
dcrman is a constitutional officer, and
a vacancy must be filled at the next
regular election.
The question now to be decided is
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-08-27

as 10 whether a Borough President ~
first a borough official and only mel,
dentally member Of the Board oil
Aldermen. City officials last night
were inclined to believe that such was
the case, and that the charter pro,
vision Of election to fill the unexpired
term, which In this case is until Janu-
AIRY I, 1918, would hold.
Corporation Counsel Polk has peeh
asked to give an opinion.
The action of the Democratic organl-
zation in Richmond is due to the fact
that the three aldermen in electing;
Van Name. president, to succeed
Charles J. Mccormack, ignored the
wishes Of the leaders. Van Name is an
independent Democrat.
After President McCormacks death
in July Alderman William FINK trled
70 secure the Borough Presidency FOR
himself. Alderman Charles +. Cole
stood with him, but Alderman John
O'Rourke would not agree to IT. AS
Tink could not vote for himself, he
could not be elected. After numerous
conferences, in which the aldermen alb
solutely refused TO take any advice
from the leaders of the organization,
they agreed upon Van Name.
There will be a meeting of the Dom
ocratic committee tonight to select a
candidate for Borough President and
candidates to succeed the three alder
men. whose denomination has been re-
fused BY the leaders They will fight,
however, and lively session is ex-
pected.
Van Name already has caused the
resignation of Spire Pitou, Commits.
sioner of Public Works, and appointed
Henry P. Morrison, civil engineer. Of
West New Brighton. Morrison is a so
an independent Democrat. 1t is be-
lieved that President Van Name will
fill other places with men of his own
choice.
Members Of the independent Demo
cratic faction are prepared to night
the move Of the organization for the
election of another Borough President
this fall.
Republicans on Staten Island viewed
with satisfaction the widening breach
between the organization and the indie
pendent Democrats. When they learned
that there might possibly be an cleo

serves the same purpose, and is in
every way as valuable as a key 70 the
Panama Canal as the harbor Of "a

The tentative draft Of the proposed
treaty between this country and Hayti

a term of six years, and would be re,

before the Legislature. He would have
power to examine and investigate all
accounts, expenditures and depart

The creation Of this Office, which is
patterned after the Crown Auditor Of
England, was suggested 20 the conven-
tion by President Lowell of Harvard
University.
Some of the Democrats think the Su-
perintendent of Public Works should
be elected, and one cf them will make
a motion TO amend the Tanner report
in this respect

ARMED SHIP MAY BE HELD
Officials to Decide If British Vessel
May Leave United States.

Washington, Aug. 26.-Whether the
British steamer Waimana shall be al
lowed to clear from Newport News with
four-inch gun mounted on her deck
will be decided tomorrow at a confer
ence between officials of the Treasury
and State departments.
Under an informal agreement be-
tween the American and British gov
ernments, entered into soon after the
war began. British vessels leaving
ports of the United States are not per-
mitted to carry mounted guns. This
arrangement was made to prevent any
question arising as to the peaceful
character of merchantmen, particu-
larly passenger vessels, from American
ports. Officials are not sure, however,
that it applies to such a case as that
of the Waimana. which is bound from
France to South America, and merely
put in at Newport News for coal.

Bill Before Constitutional
Convention Called "Un- Z
fair Discrimination"
TRIBUNE'S CENSUS
PLAN is ADOPTED
c. H. Young's Literacy Test Pro-
posal Defeated by Rally of
Votes Against II.

From star Correspondent Of The Tribune
Albany, Aug. 26.-New York City is
prevented from ever having more than
one-half Of the state Senators, regard
less of its population, by proposal
submitted TO the Constitutional Con-
vention tonight by the Committee on
Legislative Organization. Only a de-
termined fight by Nathan Burkan, Of
New York, and few other members
of the committee prevented the same
inhibition being applied TO the AS
sembiy.
ANY New York delegate who votes
for this amendment as il now STANDS,
with this unfair discrimination against
New York City," said Mr.. Burkan, twill
be disloyal to his town. 1t is greater
discrimination than that contained IN
the present constitution, which pro-
vides that no two adjoining counties
shall have more than one-hslf Of the
Senators"
The fight which Senator Root, Fred
erick' c. Tanner and other leaders OF
the convention have made to keep the
reapportionment question out Of the
convention is won, for the proposal
provides that the Legislature of 1916
shall make the reapportionment under
the present rules.
Tribune Suggestion Acted On.
The proposal also incorporates the
suggestion Of The Tribune, that here
after there shall be no census taken by
the state, but that the reapportionment
shall be based on the figures of the
Federal enumerators. This will mean
a saving Of upward of half a million
dollars every ten years, as the con-
stitution now provides that there shall
be state census every decade.
The clause restricting the Senatorial
representation of New York City is as
follows:
mo county shall have four or more
Senators unless it shall have full
ratio for each Senator. No county shall
have more than one-third of all the
Senators. and no counties wholly con-
tanned within the limits of single city
shall have more than one-half Of all
the Senators"
The proposal continues the present
number Of Senators and Assemblymen.
Ii is possible that through this New
York City may have an additional AS
semblyman. This will depend on the
population of Staten Island. At present
greater New York has sixty-three As
semblymen.
The short ballot proposal was made
special order for tomorrow. A vote
will probably be taken on it Monday at
the latest Frederick c. Tanner, chair
man of the committee which drafted the
article, said to-day that he was certain
the bill would 60 through. There is
considerable opposition to it, and there
is talk of coalition of the reaction
aries and the Tamm. ny men to defeat
it. The Democrats held a conference
to-day to decide what action to take
on it. A substitute proposal was voted
down as likely to raise the cry that the
Democrats were playing partisan poll
tics.
