Justice Cropeey In Brooklyn yesterday
handed down a decision removing Ed
ward F. Linton. a real estate man in
East New York. as one Of the condemna-
tion commissioners In the Broadway
elevated third tracking proceedings.
Some of the property holders inter-
ested In the third tracking complained
that Linton while the condemnation
work was still under way. had gon to
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company
and asked and received 5000 "for SER
Vices rendered." Linton admitted the
charge. but denied any improper motive,
Justice Cropsey says that while no
wrongful intent In attributed to the com
missioner his act was %injudicious and
improper.
"Even the appearance OF evil" he
ssYs. must be avoided. II Is improper
for a commissioner while a matter Ia
pending before him to approach either
side with a request for an advanced
payment Of his fees or the loan OF
money"
Justice Cropsey appointed Henry r,
Lyons of 1873 East Seventeenth street To
take Linton's place on the commission.

Its not a coincidence, don't worry

That is, if you haven't double-crossed
us. And he leveled his suspicious eyes
on the little woman. Il know what be-
came of those clothes, and SO does this
guy, don't you?" This to me. SECT me,
Mr.. Hillman? You don't? Why, Brady's
trailing the wrong skirt, that's what. The
one we're after walked right by us down
in the hall when we first came in.
Explanations of surprise and dismay
broke from Hillman and Mrs. Socum,
followed by rapid fire of questions and
answers between them. There was no
other girl in the house who was young and
blonde, Mrs. Slocum said; it was possible
that the girl we had seen going out had
been calling on some one. She would ask.
And off she hurried.
WHILE she was away, both the men
kept their eyes on me, and | kept
mine on space trying to look blank If
they had known how blank | felt, their
annoyance with me might have lessened
considerably.
Then Baker searched the room, which
did not take long.
She's skipped, that's sure he growled

articles for bluff. But you got to hand

caller, she reported. "And there can't

came downstairs, and they left the house
right behind her.
This statement was corroborated by
Smith when we rejoined him below.
"The girl Brady's trailing is blonde in
a blue serge suit and big black hat and no
furs, and carrying nothing but a wrist
bag" he insisted; "and the one that went
out afterwards wasn't wearing brown vel
vet and furs, either.

expression seemed to eXasperate him.
"Aw, quit your bluffing! Haven't you

Well, I'll tell you. then. She's been denti-
fed by Mrs. Slocum, the pawnbroker, and
that woman from the tea-room."
"Here comes Hllman," Smith said at
that point; and both Baker and looked
round.
With Hillman came Rosser, and as
they approached us a third man joined
them-LorrimOre's manager, Baker told
Smith.
"You can understand how fatal to the
success of our opening your immediate
action would have BEEN" the manager
was saying when they got within ear-shot
of us. 1--WE could not have replaced her
so late, and trust shall not have to do so
at all. She had a great success tonight,
and really to me it is Incredible"
Then Hillman caught sight of us. The
manager broke off, and turning stared at
me curiously.
The curtain had risen for several cur
tain calls, but was finally down to stay,
and the actors could be seen dispensing
to their dressing-rooms.
"Come on, said the manager, and Hill
man signaled Baker to follow with me.
Crossing the stage, we stopped before

fell back. leaving me facing the door, with
Baker beside me. He listened a moment.

Mary Leighton opened the door.

Baker.
