Swami Starts Inquiry
Into City Land Deals
Rockaway and Marginal Rail-
way Graft Charges May
Go to Grand Jury

District Attorney Swami admitted
yesterday that he is rushing an investi-
CATION of the graft charges against city
officials growing out Of the purchase OF
the Rockaway Park site, the marginal
railroad site and others filed with him
by William Bullock, director OF the
Bureau of City Inquiry.
II have called Assistant District At
torney Black from his vacation tour TO
take charge of the matter, and by the
first of next week we shall be IN a
position to say whether the charges
will be laid before a special grand
Jury" said Mr.. Swami.
ITO put it mildly, the facts brought
out by Mr.. Bullock developed extraor-
binary condolences regarding the &C
tivities of certain persons in getting
options on property to be condemned
I am impressed by the sincerity OF Mr..
Bullock's inquiry, and it is imperative
that investigate his findings care
fully"
Mr.. Swami said that he has been at
work several days on the Bullock re-
port, embracing all phases OF ex-Sen-
ator Reynolds's alleged activities In
land condemnation. with the intention
of presenting the evidence before the
special grand jury that is to be con-
vened by Supreme Court Justice Golf
on August q. Mr.. Swami said he had
not received any communication from
Governor Whitman about the matter
ard that he had not tried to communi-
cate with the Governor himself.

Charge Packers Seek
Corner in Tomatoes

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Charges
that three Chicago packing companies
Armour & Co.. Morris & Co. and
Libby, Mcneil & Libby-have been
buying up the California tomato crop,
bidding the price up to unprecedented
heights and shutting out the wholesaler
and retailer, who originally bought
directly from the California producers,
were filed with the Federal Trade Com
mission to-day.
Investigators have reported TO the
commission that the Chicago packers,
who never purchased canned tomatoes
in the California market prior to 1917,
have run the price up from IS cents a
dozen cans TO Sl.30 in their buying, and
by so doing have brought about a con-
dition which will necessitate an ad
vance in price Of from 6 to s cents TO
the wholesaler, which eventually will
mean that the retailer and consumer
must pay more than formerly for
canned tomatoes, notwithstanding the
fact that the American tomato crop this
year is nearly double the normal crop.

Shot by Footpads, but
Saves $4,000 Payroll
Paymaster's Horse Killed,
Right Arm Disabled, Then
He Shoots With Left

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., Aug. 10
When four masked men stepped from
the bushes that border the road be-
tween Matawan and Cliffwood to-day
thew expected to make $4,000 very
easily. They knew that the approach
ing buggy contained that amount-the
payroll of the New Jersey Brick Com
pany, at CliFwood-but they did not
take into account the fact that Ray
Robinson, paymaster, was guarding the
money.
Four revolvers were pointed at Rob-
inson, but he took no account of the
odds and straightway went into battle.
Drive like HE'LL" he told William
Eversham, who accompanied him, as he
reached for his gun.
Four revolver shots rang out together
and the horse dropped dead. A bullet
buried itself in Eversham's left leg.
And then Robinson went into action.
AS he drew his revolver ne was shot
through the right arm, but he shifted
mis- weapon 10 the left and opened fire.
For a moment the robbers replied. then
turned and ran, and Robinson, with the
precious satchel still between his feet,
toppled over into the bottom of the
buggy, with a second bullet wound in
his forehead.
Farmers who had heard the shooting
carried Robinson back to Matawan. He
was taken later to New York hospital.
The highwaymen in their fight left
behind two hats as the only clew to
their identity

Three Drowned as They Dive
Vainly to Rescue Girl Bather
Little Daughter of Naval Empoye Held in Death Clutch
Two Young Men Then Plunge Into
Pond Near Peekski

again, and only air bubled coming to
the surface, told what had happened.
The little girl dived into the midst Of
the bubbles.
The young women on shore waited
breathlessly, watching the surface, by
that time almost Opaque with particles
of mud. For a moment the water
swirled anew and wavelets dashed to
the shore; then came more bubbles.
Neither girl reappeared. A frenzied
chorus of screams brought John Lent
and William Booth, who were working
in a neighboring field. A glance at the
frightened young women and the spot
at which they pointed, and both youths
dived from the bank.
They, too, were swallowed up by the
pond, and by the time other rescuers
arrived no one could point out exactly
where they had gone down. It was sew
eral hours before the four bodies were
found. Lent was twenty-five years old
and lived at 1929 Park Street. Booth
was twenty and lived at 1885 Main
Street.
The four bodies were brought to the
surface together and it was found that
all were firmly clasped together. The
efforts of the two youths to break the
grip which bound the two earlier vic
tins together had proved unavailing.

Railroad Drops Request for
Higher Passenger Rates

The New York Central Railroad Com
pany has withdrawn the passenger tar
ifs filed with the Public Service Com
mission on July 81, which showed
marked increases in rates between New
York City and points in New York State.
A letter to the commission requesting
permission TO withdraw the tariffs

trict had been approved.
The request of the company followed

sioncr Charles S. Hervey, the tariffs
were ordered suspended until Septem-
Der 20, and the commission voted to
begin on August Is a searching investi-

Whitman Wins
In Conference on
State Food Bill
Legislative Leaders Agree
That Executive Shall APP
point Commissioners

ALBANY, Aug. 1o.-Victory for Gov
ernor Whitman in his contest with the
Republican leaders of the Legislature
over the provisions Of the food control
bill to be enacted at the special session
seemed to be assured to-day. For more
than three hours the Governor and his
counsel. Franklin B. Lord, discussed
with Speaker Sweet of the Assembly
and the majority leaders, Senator Elon
R. Brown End Assemblyman Simon l.
Adler, the principal sections Of the
bill. on which they were not in accord.
When the conference was adjourned
until Monday morning, formal state
ment was issued by the Governor to
the effect that there was every expec-
tation that bill would be agreed upon.
This view was also expressed by
Senator Brown and Speaker Sweet.
Everybody was in a conceding frame
of mind" Senator Brown said, "and We
expect that the differences, if any ever
existed, will be cleared away"
II is known that the Governor was
unyielding in his demand for the in
corporation in the bill of three provi-
siOns, not included in the measure in
troduced by the War Committee. These
would give the Executive the power to
appoint the State Food Commission
crs, would empower the commission to
" and sell food and to erect storage
warehouses;, and also would authorize
the commission to confiscate food held
in storage for speculative purposes.
1t is understood that the legislative
leaders have virtually agreed to these
propositions.
The Governor, it was learned, will
not insist that municipal food commits
sions be authorized to purchase and
sell food in their respective localities
without the consent of the State Food
Commission. While he believes that
the local boards should be empowered
to handle local situations, he considers
that as he is to have the appointment
of the state commissioners there will
be no difficulty in any municipal COM
mission obtaining formal permission
from the state body to deal in food
stuffs.
After the ratification on Monday Of
the compromise effected to-day, the
perfected food bill will be introduced
at the night session, and it is expected
that it will be enacted speedily and
that the Legislature will be adjourned
before the end of the week. 1t is not
likely that there will be any reappor-
tionment legislation.
