TOTTENVILLE, July 1.-THE De-
paFtment of Plants and Structures on

mate, took over the Ferry Bureau of
the Department of Docks and Ferries
and henceforward will have charge of

sioner Delaney of the Department of

were about twenty-five boats and
scows In his department, mostly in
good shape, but the ferryboats are in
bad condition n require a lot of me-
chanical attention, costing about
$4S1.000. Mayor Hylan asked, II, II

ries, in which he charged that Chief

sioner of Accounts, made false records
as to the number of tickets, particu-
larry vehicle tickets, sold at the

Gated reports, and this force will
march into Russia in conjunction with
another great army which will adj
vance from Finland along the MUIR
man railway and attack Petrograd.
Germany. foreseeing a year ago that
an army would some day come in
handy on the Russian front, has kept
about 26 divisions, or nearly 500, 900
men. in Russian Poland ready for
such an emergency. Another army of
from 10000 to 10000 men has been
sent to Finland. A third large army
is in the Ukraine. Thus the Kaiser
has an army OF nearly 100000 men
ready to strike.
This emphasizes the need for i'm
mediate action on the part of the al
lies. Unless aggressive measures
are adopted without the loss Of time
Moscow and Petrograd will have fall

will ave penetrated far into the heart
of Russia.

adancing southwark from Kola bay
would be completely out off on all

base at Kola.
Allies Have Footholds.
The present situation with respect
to the allies is illustrated on the map
accompanying this article. IL shows
that the allies are not entirely with
out some footholds In Russia, partic-
ularly in Siberia.
The Russian people. even the pa
thetic remnant OF the Russian army,
are intensely anti-German and II 10
likely that they would rush to the aid
of the allies Immediately the latter

ToTTENvILLE, July 15:-John
Geraidson, seventeen years old, of 249

suspected by the police OF having
forced an entrance to the residence of
Louis Rively at $500 Arthur XIII

stealing a quantity of jewelry belong
ing to two boarders, were arrested
yesterday.
Detective Schley had been looking
for both young men ever since the
robbery. but they were seen leaving
for Perth Amboy Friday and all trace
of them was lost until Geraldson re-
turned yesterday morning and was
held up by Patrolman Cotter at Main
street and Arthur Kill road and TAX
en- to the Si0tieth precinct station
where he was turned over to Schley.
After being given the third degree
Geraldson confessed to the robbery

LaFord was arraigned before Re-
corder Pickersgill this morning and
remanded to the county Jail at New
Brunswick for thirty days to await
extradition to New York.
Both LaFord and Geraldson have
been arrested several times before.
LaFord's finger prints were taken by
Schley and his record will be looked
into in Manhattan. Papers and
other things found on his person may
link him with other robberies, 1t Is
believed by the police. When ar
rested Geraldson had one of the
chains that vas stolen from the Rive
ly home on Friday, on him. He said
that he sold one of the watches to a
jeweler in State street, Perth Amboy,
who in urn sold 1t shortly afterward.
