LANDLORD INDICTED
IN LEASE ARGUMENT
William Il. Heide Obtains q
Writ When Admission to
Apartment Is Denied.
DEFENDANTS CRY SPITE
Declare Revenge Is Cause for
Action Against Manufacture
er and Real Estate Men.

Philip Katz, wealthy cloak and suit
manufacturer, Elsen Freese, superin-
tendent of the apartment house in S3S
West End avenue. and the heads of the
real estate firm of Frederick Zittel &
Sons, were indicted by the Grand Jury
yesterday, charged with conspiracy to
prevent william F. Heide from 'enter-
ing, occupying and quietly enjoying" his
apartment on the fourth floor of the
apartment house. Katz, Freese and Ed
win z. and Frank NJ. Zittel were later
arraigned before Judge Rosalsky in Gen
eral Sessions and entered pleas of not
guilty through their attorneys. Fred
erick Groehl and William H. Chorosh,
who declared that the indictment was
the result of spite.
1t Is charged In the Indictment that
Mr.. Heide upon his return September Is
from his summer home not only was
denied access to his apartment which
he had leased until October !, but was
unlawfully prevented from using the ele-
vator to get to the floor on which It is
located. 1t is further alleged that his
rooms were forcibly entered at the in
stance of the accused to admit painters
who were to redecorate and that new
locks were placed on all the doors In
order to bar Mr.. Heide.
The latter first took the case to Mag
istrate McQuade, and when his charge
of disorderly conduct made out against
Superintendent Freese was dismissed he
carried his complaint to the District At
torney.
Mr.. Chorosh asserted yesterday that
the entire prosecution came as the re-
suit of Mr.. Heide's desire to get even
with Mr.. Katz and the Zittels because
Katz had refused to suitcase the fiat
from him last June.
Mr.. Heide had practically moXed all
his effects from the apartment to an
other place in West Seventy-second
street at the time the decorators were
permitted ~ enter" said Mr. Chorosh.
This indictment does a great injustice
to honorable men who were not given
an opportunity to be heard in their own
defense"

On to Boston To-day.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Oct. 3.-This city
the, first in Massachusetts, to be hon

Cardinal Mercier was escorted to the
municipal buildings, where a short re-
ception was given by Mayor A A.
Adams ard the City Council and where
he spoke briefly from the terrace to ar
immense crowd that included hundreds
of school children who had been dis
missed from their studies to greet him.
Members Of the American Legion and
Knights of Columbus acted as escort.
He was then entertained at luncheon at
hotel by the committee and a few
guests after which he spent the after
noon at the episcopal residence of Bishop
Beaver. The chief event of his visit
was public reception in the Auditorium

Cardinal Mercier, in speaking of his
success in dealing with the German in

the accuser instead of the accused He
said that when German officers were

MORE LIBRARY INDICTMENTS.
Queens Conditions "Rotteno for
Years, President saya.

Following the indictment of Rudolph
Randall, for twenty years bookkeeper of
the Queens Borough Public Library, on
charges of forging pay checks and steal
ings funds of the library, John II. LEIGH
Of Woodhaven, president of the board
of trustees of the library, issued a state
ment yesterday in which he said the in
dictment was anticipated by him and
that more will probably follow.
THE present investigation of the Ii
brary system by members of the stan
Of the Commissioner of Accounts is be-
ing made at the request of the trustees"
said Mr.. LEIGH II have known for six
years that conditions were rotten in the
library system, but it was not until last
March that I could win over a majority
Of the trustees to demand an lnvestiga-
ton. We hope as a result of the in
vestigation and what we believe will
grow out of 1t to give the Queens Bor-
ough Public Library a thorough house
cleaning from top to bottom"

principally. Now and then there was a
cheer or volley of cheers but, to be
entirely accurate, 1t was a crowd more
curious than enthusiastic.
Virtually every dignitary of the
church and public life was present at
the City. Hall when the King arrived.
The crowds that had waited for two
hours to see the King and Queen got
little comfort. For a couple of minutes
the Mayor and the King shook hands
for the benefit of the cameras but even
crowds view II it is the Kings desire
too see American people and permit
them to see him. certainly the State
Department will have to alter its meth
DDS considerably.
The Aldermanic chamber bulged with
people. Rodman Wanamaker introduced
the Mayor. The King. Queen and Prince
were standing behind his Honor and as
they took their places they were indivi-
dually and collectively cheered. The
Mayor said:
welcome the first King and Queen to
visit the United States.
I'VE are glad to welcome the soldier
sovereign who has earned the plaudits
of an admiring world by his courage,
sincerity and unselfish devotion to the
interests and life of his people,
I'VE honor the leader who is ever
ready to share common dangers with
his fellow citizens and who instilled in
their hearts n confidence of security and
hope of victory. freedom and glory.
I'VE greet with profound admiration
and love the woman, ever his constant
companion in the hours of darkest peril
whose ministering hand on the fields of
battle and beds of pain lifted up her
sorrow stricken but indomitable kins-
men and cheered the fainting spirits of
those who were doing battle in their
country's cause.
I'VE salute their Majesties, King Al
bert and Queen Elizabeth of Belgium.

Belgum's wrongs; of violated treaties,

tcet.yes loitered about seeinga to 1t that
nobody became too familiar or over e1.-
thusiastic. Brand Whitlock acted as
personal escort to the royal pair and
the Mona looked something like a Coney

she moved off.
Many wives-0n Yacht.
Somebody declared that the wives of
all city offlcials-from policemen to AL
dermen-were on board. 1t is no ex-
aggeration to state that twenty more
passengers would have made it almost
impossible for Albert and his wife to
get on. The Roma sailed slowly along
the Jersey side of the river that the
visitors might see the great docks where
once Germany anchored her mighty
merchant marine. Unlike the day of
the Kings arrival in America, the morn
ing was brilliant. Around the blunt
nose of the Battery the Mona glided
and from the ships that passed up and
down the bay bewildering chorus of
whistlings arose.
Up the East River and under the span
of Brooklyn Bridge they went, and the
Queens camera kept clicking. The
water approach to the Manhattan
Bridge made them marvel and the dis
tant view of the New York Navy Yard
meant new interest
They turned back and approached the
Battery again. The shore was lined
with an ever fncrea sing throng and such
was the demonstration on land and
water that the crowd aboard the Mona
rushed to the rail nearest shore to see
the picture. As result the yacht be-
gan to list and there was a general
scramble to restore her to even keel.
The Twenty-second Infantry, Col, John
C. Tlllson. commanding. formed the
guard of honor. A company of coast
artillerymen and n couple of batteries
of field artillery completed the army
part in the parade up Broadway. A
company of sailors Immediately preceded
the Kings motor.
The police arrangements were splen-
did. There was no hitch or untoward
incident. From the windows of the sky
scrapers ton OF paper-torn into
minute particles-came futtering down
upon the short procession A thousand
hags. large and small. were whipping
backward and forward. The King and
Queen looked up at the high walls of
Broadway and then looked at each other
and shook their heads in something akin
to amazement
The applause was not Tremendous.
Indeed it was limited TO hand clapping

King Replies to Mayor.

The King replied in a clear, steady
voice. His English is not the English
OF the Frenchman, although, French Is
Albert's natural tongue. He said:
II thank you heartily for your words
OF welcome. I appreciate highly the
honor that the city of New York does me
in making me one OF its citizens. I prize
all the more highly this manifestation
because in Belgium municipal institu-
lions have always played in the past and
continue to fill to-day a marked role in
the public life of the country.
Il think that there Is not in the his
tory of the world another example like
that of the city of New York, which
born not three centuries ago, has be-
come in this short space of time one of
the centres of universal activity
New York is indeed worthy to be the
commercial and financial metropolis OF
that admirable American democracy
which showed itself to be as great In
war as in peace, and always generous
toward those who suffer.
Il am happy, Mr., Mayor, to be able
to bear to the immense city which sur
rounds us with its splendor the saluta-
lions of Belgium"
Then Rodman Wanamaker presented

lips. A parchment attesting to Albert S
citizenship in America was presented to

The royal party returned TO the Wal

ing the city's luncheon hour there were
thousands on the sidewalks to greet the
visitors. At the Wanamaker corner the
crowd was pretty dense. The Wana-
maker band and the Wanamaker Girl

and Queen welcome. There was no
great cheering. The crowds struggled to
look at King and a Queen. Now and

SAILS RIVER AND HARBOR

II may be that not even in the
blacklist days of 1917 did Albert Of
Belgium doubt that the course he had
chosen would lead anywhere but to ul-
Innate victory. But it is certain that
many times his eyes turned from his
charred kingdom to the shores OF
America and he wondered how long 1t
would \ be before the United States
would come to Europe.
More than two years have passed
since America dispelled any doubts he
NAV have had about her friendship,
but It was yesterday that the tall King
OF the Belgians learned that Americas
love for him As a man is quite as
great as Americas Jealous love of that
political liberty for which she fought
shoulder to shoulder with him.
America opened her arms to him;
made him a citizen of the country:
gave him the Stars and Stripes-the
highest honor we can bestow upon a
man And that there be nothing left
10 the imagination nor lingering doubt
OF a unanimity of affection, $4,000
school children sang to him and paid
him the compliment that is supreme
the freely offered love of a child.
Early in the morning, long before
the average New Yorker is on his way
down town, King Albert, Queen Eliza
beth and Prince Leopold had break
tasted and were awaiting the start of
the days programme From their win
dows on the fourth floor of the Wal
dorf-Astoria they saw Manhattan hurry
ing to its offices, its shops, its banks
and its factories. They watched the
earlier crowds. the shop girls and cloth
ing makers, still fighting off sleep, hus-
Ting up and down the avenue. They
watched the crowded buses and the ever
increasing files of motor cars and the
gradual awakening of the great city
OF the West. And then they set forth
10 see for themselves.
At 10 O'Clock Rodman wanamaker
and other members of the Mayors re-
ception committee came to the Waldorf.
King Albert, his Queen and the Prince
set forth to see the harbor.

the little ones, and then President Prall
Queen, who smiled and bowed; and then
young Leopold was led forward and sub
mitted with very good grace. And then
down the steps came the party. while ex-
cited policemen and Mayors committee
men cleared the way and they proceeded
ITO review the children. walking up and
down among the delegations from the
various schools.
Opinions differed as to how many chill
dren were there. Official figures gave
the number as 10000, but actually there
were many less. The fact that 1t is a
Jewish holiday made II difficult to get
out a great assemblage of pupils, as
many OF them were at home yesterday.
But anyhow there were enough children
drawn up there to give Albert and Eliza
beth and young Leopold considerable of
a walk before the review was finished.
Then came the tree planting, and that
was the greatest attraction of all. Every
body wanted to see a King work, as one
fat policeman remarked after he had
made futile attempts to keep the crowd
from tripping over the very spade that
an important official handed to Albert.
1t was just a common or garden variety
of spade, but the Park Department
dressed 1t up in the Belgian colors.
Four shotelfuIs "A Days Work.
Four shovelfuls of earth did Albert
gravely and in a workmanlike manner
deposit around the roots of the baby
European beech which four husky park
laborers held upright. Then he wiped
his brow and gave the spade to the
Nuh IN n G we'd
in one generous shoyelful. Young Leo
pold threw in two and called it a day.
And then they all climbed in their cars,
while the movie camera men worked
their machines madly, and everybody
rushed for a last look at the visitors
and shouted "Vve lie Roi !" in the best
French they could muster-and across
all the joyous din cut the despairing
shrek of a small tow-headed lad who
appeared suddenly from nowhere
81 amt seen the King yet! / amt

A good natured policeman swung the
the King. son." he said
the lad.
Him in the soldier clothes-and q
good soldier he is" replied the police
man.
And then the crowd melted away
literally almost melted in the glaring
heat. But some there were besides the
children who never thought of the heat
in the great interest of what they saw
and these were little groups of native
Belgians who waved their country's
colors here and there. One such stood
at the curb as the party motored away

daughter and the latter's little child

ceremonies at the park were over and
the royal party spent the next hour in
motor ride to the northern limits of
Manhattan. Just as he had. done the
afternoon before when he defied the
rain by going on an unannounced motor
trip through the city, King Albert man
aged to outstrip even the members of
his own party and the escort of motor
cycle policemen were unable to keep
pace with the royal car. For early
nalf an hour the King and Rodman
Wanamaker drove unescorted through
the roads of the Billings estate and only
picked up the escort again when they
turned south on Riverside Drive to re-
turn to the Waldorf-Astoria.
Their only halt on the return trip was
at Grants Tomb. Both the King and
the Queen left their cars and made
their way into the tomb. The trans
lucent windows of the structure had
transformed the bright twilight of out
doors to semi-darkness within and the
couple had to grope their way from the
entrance to the side of the sarcophagi.
Queen Elizabeth placed roses on the
marble and she and the King bent their
heads in a few moments of silent prayer
the street and were whirled away
At 10Th street the horse of a woman
rider on the bride path alongside the
asphalt pavement of the drive grew
panicky at the Capidly moving motor
cycles which had again taken up their
place ahead of the procession. In his
antics he threw his rider and John f.
Sinnot. secretary to the Mayor, stopped
his car and went to the woman's as
sistance. She was uninJured, however,
and went to her home refusing to give
her name.
The party arrived at the Waldorf
Astoria at half past six, returning by
way of Riverside Drive. Seventy-second
street, Central Park and Fifth avenue
In spite of the speed at which the cars
moved the crowds on the avenue recog-
nized the occupants and hearty cheers
and shouted greetings from the side
walks were continuous along the route

of King Albert, Queen Elizabeth and

Ames May Get New Hotel.

Ames, Aug. 2-Ames may have a
new hotel. For three days past three
men were in the city investigating the
hotel possibilities here with the idea
in mind Of erecting probably q six
story hotel building in Ames.
The men came to Ames from Chi
cago and Des Moines and have gone
over the population carefully, ac-
cording to information given the
Tribune today. It stated tho site

The preliminary part OF their work
being done, the men left last night
for their homes to consider the mat
ter further and possibly lay plans
that may mean the erection Of another
hotel in Ames and in the very near
future,
