After having pleaded guilty to a
charge of selling a bogus medical
diploma to Abraham Lazinslxy of Brook
Ign for 1880, Nicholas d. Clements, a..
OF $500 Hughes avenue, The Bronx.

furnished by him.
Clements was remanded to the Tombs
until July "a. He will be questioned
in the meantime by Ferdinand Pecora,
Assistant District Attorney, who handled
the case against him. Mr.. Pecora be-
lieves that nox fewer than seventy five
men had obtained fake diplomas from
mediate prosecution against all found to
have obtained their credentials fradu-
lently.
Clements has been serving a term Of
from two to five years on a conviction
against him obtained by the Bronx
county prosecutor on charge that he
had fraudulently labelled medicine bot

new Swami had him brought from DAN
emora on a special writ to answer to
the charge to which he pleaded guilty
yesterday.
According to Mr.. Pecora, Clements did
n thriving business for several years
selling fraudulent diplomas. The one
he issued to Lazlnzky purported to be a
certificate of the Southern College of
Medicine and Surgery at Atlanta. Ga.
This institution, Mr.. Pecora told the
court, passed out of existence ten years
ago Lazinsky is now serving a peniten-
tiary term where he was sentenced after
having pleaded guilty to an indictment

With the demolition or the old Third
avenue power house at Bayard stree.
and tho Bowery, which Is being torn
down to make room for n modern garage
and loft building. passes one of the few
remaining landmarks that recall the days
when cable cars were introduced as q
substitute for the venerable horse cars
that since 1853 had piled up and down
the Bowery from City Hall to Harlem.
The power house was built In 1892 at
cost said to exceed $1,0OO,0O0 This
was In the palmy days of the Third ave-
nue. line. Henry Hart. who began as a
Chatham street pawnbroKer. had then
developed the property from a single line
Of track hardly a mile long to an enor-
nous system covering a considerable
part of two boroughs.
Tho building was constructed of four
foot blocks OF fine sandstone, supported
by heavy iron columns. These blocks are
A brick chimney lowered over the struc-
ture and In those days was conspicuous
on the city sky line.
The front of the building was used as
car barn and the old tracks leading
in from the street can still be traced,
worn down by two generations of pass
ing throngs. In the rear was the power
station. which has been converted into
an electric power house and still supplies
some of the motive power for the Third
avenue lines.
Eight years after the cable limo was
Installed 1t WAS superseded by electricity
and the car barn was abandoned as In
adequate. The building was used as a
stable for an express company until 1910,
when 1t was turned into a moving picture
theatre.
For years parts of the Bayard street
side OF the building have been used az
stalls for street pedlers and second hand
clothes dealers, who are still exhibiting
their wares on the tumbled piles of stone
and brick that the contractors have
thrown out on the sidewalks.
The new building will be completed in
six months.
