For Police Tickets
Mysterious Millionaire Is
Anxious To Be Caught by
Patrolmen; Chorus Girls
Aid the Field Day Fund

"Raffles,' the mysterious millionaire
purchaser of tickets for the Police De-
partment field day, was caught by a
Tribune camera on the roof of the
Equitable Building yesterday. He had
just left a luncheon at the Bankers
Club following a strenuous period of
lodging alert policemen in the finan-
cial district. One policeman caught
him at Wall Street and Broadway, and
he was trailed by the Tribune photog-
rapher from that point to the club and
thence to the Equitable roof.
This is the first picture published of
him. He buys five tickets every time
policeman accosts him as Raffles. He
has already expended $1,000 for tickets
and has $4,000 more for the purpose.
The photographer switched to the
trail of Raffles while fifty girls from a
Broadway musical comedy were selling
field day tickets in the Wall Street
neighborhood. The girls were accom-
panied by the Police Glee Club and a
detachment of the Motor Transport
Corps OF the Women's Police Reserve.
Rallies was circulating in the crowd
when accosted by patrolman. He
went with the field day ticket sellers to
the Bankers Club luncheon, which was
rendered by George T. Wilson, presi-
dent of the Equitable Life Assurance
Society.
A varied open-air programme will be
offered during the two police days at
Sheepshead Bay, July 10 and 26. Army
and navy airplanes will do special aerial
stunts, John Mccormack will sing patri-
otto music and "The Battle Hymn of
the Republic" will be rendered by Julia

Alderman Assails Mavor
For Vetoing Curb Bill
Quinn Says Hylan Cannot I'm.
derstand the English
o,,r,,oco
Language

Alderman William F. Quinn, author
of the proposed ordinance compelling
curb brokers to pay an annual license
fee of $500 to the city, which was
vetoed on Thursday by Mayor Hylan,
in statement yesterday attacking the
Mayor for his action declared that the
Mayor had received a delegation of
curb brokers in his Office who told him
"why he should veto this ordinance. /"
Alderman Quinn Said:
Mayor Hylan, in vetoing the ordi-
nance licensing curb brokers, reveals
the astounding fact that the people of
New York have elected man as Mayor
who cannot read nor interpret the
meaning of the English language, and
the proof is herewith set forth. l
quote for the voters of this city the
language of the curb ordinance which
he has vetoed.
"lf any sane person can pick out
where this ordinance gives an exclusive
right to anybody l would like to have
him communicate with me, or if
'Hissoner' can derive any other mean
ing from the words 'n or upon any
street. than all streets, | would like
him to explain. My Interpretation of
all persons includes everybody, so that
the reasons given in the veto of our
poor, stupid Mayor, are absolutely er-
roneous, and go to prove his utter in
competency for the position which he
is wofully failing to fulfil as the
Chlef Executive of our city"

Judge Turns Sleuth to
Catch Auto Speeders
Magistrate House Tips Off the
Police; Fifth Avenue
Being Watched

1t was speeders' day in the Traffic
Court yesterday. Magistrate Frederick
B. House was called upon to fine a
lawyer friend, Ohauncey Anderson, S25
for speeding on Fifth Avenue. He
fined and lectured the chauffeur of Su-
preme Court Justice Pendleton for the
same offence.
And between the two cases he took
occasion to inform the city generally
and Riverside Drive and upper Broad
way particularly that for the last week
he himself had been doing detective
duty, taking the numbers of auto
mobiles which nightly break the speed
laws on those thoroughfares. These
numbers, he said, had been turned ever
to the police, and summonses are to
fall in unexpected places shortly.
q woman wearing the uniform Of the
Motor Corps, who drives q big car on
Riverside Drive and upper Broadway, is
being watched. Magistrate House said
she came near to knocking him down
while he was doing volunteer detective
laws Thursday night. Her number has
been given to Motorcycle Patrolman
Burtis Winkleman. who has been as
signed to the upper Broadway section
at the instance of the magistrate.
II have been going out to see for N.Y.
SELF" said the magistrate. For some
time citizens have been coming to my
house or writing to complain about the
speeders on upper Broadway. They say
the lives of their children are endan-
gered and it is unsafe for adults to try
to cross over to Riverside Park.
IL know now that is SO, for l have
been out for several nights, and on one
night within a few minutes l counted
ten motor cars travelling at rapid
rate-at least thirty miles an hour.
81 have called the matter to the at
tention Of Police Captain Howe, and
we are going to see whether we can
not slow them up little. l shall be
out watching for some weeks to come"
Jan Rubini, violinist, was one of
those caught in the section now under
the magistrates eye. He pleaded
guilty, explaining that he was in
hurry, because it was nearly time for
his wife to feed the baby, who had been
left at home. The fine was $25.
