Sing Sing Prisoner
Will Testify Again
In Gaming Inquiry
O'Neil Will Appear To-day
Before Nassau Co. Grand
jury and 1T Is Hinted Of
ficials May Be Involved

The Investigation into the gambling
house activities that have stirred Mas
sau County from end to end will be re-
sumed to-day before Supreme Court
Justice Townsend Scudder and the
grand jury at the Mineola, l.. l., Court
house.
1t was freely predicted yesterday
that John shaughnessy, owner Of a
house at Lynbrook, L. l., would be
called before the grand jury by Dis
trict Attorney Weeks, but the latter
would not confirm this report. No wit
nesses were examined yesterday.
Among the predictions made yester-
day was one that Matthew O'Neil, who
is serving term in Sing Sing prison,
would be brought before the grand jury
to-day and questioned concerning his
disposal Of stolen automobiles. O'Neil
has testified before and it is intimated
that his further statements may in
volve certain county officials.
There was great deal of speculation
regarding the nature of Shaughnessey's
testimony. He has pleaded guilty to
being the owner Of the house at Lyn-
brook IN which 1t is alleged that
gambling was conducted on an elab-
crate scale. 1t was in this house that
Wilson Miner, the playwright, and
other we'll known persons were arrested
following raid last year. Shaughnes-
sey was not in any way interested in
the gambling in his house, as far as
can be learned.
., Another interesting feature Of
Shaughnessy's questioning Is connect
ed with Saratoga County. The Assist
ant District Attorney Of that county
has been present at some of the hear
ings, and it was stated that he desired
to question Shaughnessy regarding
conditions in Saratoga. 1t is under
stood, however, that counsel for the
latter has expressed the opinion that
his client cannot be asked questions
regarding conditions in one county
while appearing before a grand jury
in another county.
While none of the officials of the
county would discuss the investiga-
ton, it is generally conceded by resi-
dents that Justice Scudder and District
Attorney Weeks are determined to rid
the county of all gambling activities.

Lakewood.Mt. Holly Road
To Philadelphia Is Best
Route Through Camden Is the
Longest, but Condition of
the Highway Is Good
Motorists Light Lamps


To-day, 7:24 p. m.
Saturday. Sept. Is, 1922 p. m.
Sunday, Sept. 26, 1921 p. m.
Information about the roads to Phila-
delphia appears to be the thing most
sought by motorists, and inasmuch as
conditions change from day to day it is
hard to keep up with the news. The
road that leads by way of Lakewood
and Mount Holly to Camden is, although
the longest way by about five miles,
still the preferred route to Philadel-
phla. However, this is by no means
straight road. because there is>a de-
tour to be made between Matawan and
Freehold, as we'll as one in the neigh
very poor in wet weather, as many
motorists have discovered for them
selves.
However, as long as conditions on
the Lincoln Highway route continue as
they are the Lakewood line will appeal
to drivers more than the shorter road.
1t is reported at the bureau of tours
of the Automobile Club Of America that
conditions between Metuchen and New
Brunswick are greatly improved. This
surface has been patched and levelled.
Road building appears to be in about
the same state as apartment house con-
struction; that is, there seems to be a
shortage Of labor and materials. Work
on the Saw Mill River Road, between
Elmsford and Ardsley, is not yet COM
pleted The Boston Post Road is still
closed as far as Mount Vernon and the
only exception appears to be the East
ern Boulevard passing Pelham Bay
Park. The repair work on this is getting
along nicely and soon there will be
wide boulevard for motoring.

Hammerstein Foundation
Undergoes jury Inquiry
Money Collected at Benefits Are
Alleged to Have Been Used
for Other PURPOSES

The Oscar Hammerstein Memorial
Foundation, designed to send worthy
American musicians Of small means to
Europe for study, is being Investigated
by the District Attorneys Office. AS
sistant District Attorney Edwin P.
Kilroe yesterday asked Judge Wadhams
in the Court Of General Sessions to
compel George Blumenthal, manager of
the Manhattan Opera House, to show
cause why he should not be- held in
contempt of court.
Charges have been made to the Dis
trict Attorneys office that money de-
rived from benefit performances and
concerts was diverted to other sources.
MIR. Kilroe told the court that Septem-
Der 2, w. Percival Monger, a musical
critic, made complaint that money
taken in at the performances was be-
ing used for other purposes. He asked
for an investigation.
Blumenthal was in court with his at
torney, Robert H. Elder, former As
sistant District Attorney Of Kings
County. Earlier in the day he refused
to answer questions regarding the
fund. Judge Wadhams instructed Mr..
Blumenthal to answer questions unless
they had tendency to incrimnate or
degrade him. Blumenthal will appear
before the additional September Grand
Jury to-day.

But he didn't dare scratch his head
because he didn't want Farmer Browns

eyes and wonder and wonder what it
all meant. He was still wondering

was invented. 1t probably
passed from China to west
ern Asia with silk manu-
facture. Egyptians worked
colored patterns in looms so
rich that they We'd with the
Babylonian needle embroid-
cry. Gold and silver threads
or wires were used for en-
broidery and weaving near
ly 1000 years before the
exodus Of the Israelites.
Pliny says that weaving
cloth with gold thread was
invented by Attalus, an
Asiatic king, and that the
Babylonians were noted for
weaving colored cloths. In
Homer's time, about 900
B. c., weaving and en-
broidery were excellent and
gorgeous. At that time la
Dor at the loom was consid-
cred an accomplishment in
which ladies and princesses
tried to excel.
The loom passed to Eu-
rope, where the Chinese
method was used until
1904, and the draw loom I'M
til jacquard, a working
mechanic, invented tn e
loom which is used to-day.
1t was introduced into Eng
land about 1918, into Scot
land in 1924, when it came
into general use.
