Court Condemns Police
Gambling Raid Methods

In dismissing nine young men who
had been arrested on charges of dis
orderly conduct and suspected Of shoot
ing craps, Chief City Magistrate Will
lam McAdoo, in the Jefferson Market
court, said yesterday that the police
proceeded in the wrong way to sup
press gambling in New York.
'It will never be done by sporadic
raids" said Magistrate McAdoo, "but
only by intelligent detective methods.
The police are not acting properly and
not acting intelligently. l could say
more, but l will not"
The magistrate added that he was
convinced of the guilt of the young
men brought before him. but from the
evidence submitted his only alternative
was to discharge them. The nine men
had been arrested Saturday night
while in a basement at 284 Mott Street.
Declaring that shooting craps for
money is not disorderly conduct, Mag
istrate Joseph E. Corrigan, in Tombs
court, yesterday dismissed eight boys
who had been arrested Saturday night
in a raid on crap game in Centre
Street, directly opposite Police Head
quarters. The arrest was made on the
complaint of former participant, who

Million Asked to Raise
Customs Employees Pay
Senator Calder's Deficiency Bill
Amendment Is Backed by
Merchants, Association

Better pay for employees in the Gus
toms service is provided in a bill in
troduced by United Stats Senator Will
lam Calder as an amendment to the
general deficiency bill. The Merchants
Association is giving its support to the
Calder measure, which would appro-
pirate s1,QoO,o00 for raises for customs
service men,
Merchants Association committee
on customs service and revenue law,
after investigating numerous COM
plants Of delay in the movement of
merchandise through the customs, re-
ported the schedule Of salaries in the
service was altogether inadequate. The
Calder measure is simply a temporary
relief scheme which it is expected will
be followed by legislation reclassify-
ing and increasing the salaries of diff
ferent groups Of employees in the
service.
The association has sent a telegram
to Senator Reed Smoot, of the Senate
Committee on Appropriations, urging
support Of the amendmnt.

City to Compel
|. X. T. to Alter
''L'' Equi pment
Writ May Be Asked to Force
Changes That Will Permit
Operation of B. r. T.
Trains in Queens

Litigation between the city and the
lntcrborough Rapid Transit Company
may result from the refusal of the In
tcrborough to make equipment changes
on the city-owned elevated structure
in Queens, which are necessary for
joint operation of Interborough and
Brooklyn Rapid Transit trains. These
equipment changes are provided for in
the terms of the dual contracts.
A month ago John H. Delaney, tran
sit construction commissioner, directed
the interborough to make such changes
In the power and signal equipment as
would allow the operating of Brooklyn
Rapid Transit trains from the tunnel
IN Sixtieth Street to the terminals of
the Astoria and Corona elevated lines.
The cars of the New York municipal
system are fourteen inches wider than
Peterborough trains now operating in
Queens and nearly seventeen inches
trains operating in that borough. The
Sixtieth Street tunnel, it is stated,
will be ready to permit the extension
OF the New York municipal Broadway
subway line to greensboro Plaza
about April Is.
To get beyond the plaza, however it will
be necessary to cut back all section
platforms on the Queens 81" structure
and also to make slight changes in
the power contact rail and the signal
devices. Commissioner Delaney has
directed that the Interborough proceed
with the required changes, but the
company denies right of the city to
order such changes made.
The Interborough officials take the
position that because storage yards
have not yet been provided in Queens,
the Queens "L" structure is not ready
for operation, although Interborough
trains have operated over the structure
for two years. 1t is also contended
that the New York municipal company
should alter it's cars in such a way as
to admit their passage over the Queens
~ as it is now equipped. The In
terborough officials declare it is not
their duty to rearrange equipment 10
suit the convenience Of the citys cars
1t is expected that Commissioner
Delaney will apply to the Supreme
Court for a mandamus to compel the
lnterborough to make necessary
changes in equipment.

$4,000 Visit Coney,
Many Carting A1Uay
Loads of Sea Food

Fifty thousand persons visited Coney
Island yesterday, it was estimated.
Many Of them were bungalow owners
anxious to see what havoc the storm
had wrought in their summer homes.
Others visited the place to see the
wreckage left by the wind and tide.
First arrivals soon spread the news
that the shore was Uttered with hordes
OF frozen crabs and Holsters and with
clans deposited far beyond the usual
highwater mark, and all their friends
and relatives came to join in the
harvest. Wagon loads of sea food were
taken away. The crabs and Holsters
soon thawed out if placed in a warm
room and showed renewed interest in
life.
Automobile travel was virtually i'm
possible because Of the snow which
clogged the streets. Trolley service
was poor and the elevated and sub
way trains We're crowded to capacity.

"APPLE BLOSSOMS"
SCORES LONGEST RUN.

Charles Dillinghams charming oper-
eta "Apple Blossoms" which is en-
ioying the longest run among the sea-
sons musical offerings, still entertains
capacity audiences at the Globe thea
ter. Music lovers and playgoers' COM
bined interest in the Kreisler-JacObi-
LeBaron light opera is said to be the
reason for it's great vogue. While the
Globe theater has always been soci-
ety's favOrite headquarters, "Apple
Blossoms" has attracted the regular
habitue of the Metropolitan as well,
and its balconies have been as popular
as its orchestra and boxes during this
record run. The original cast, which
is given full credit for Its share in the
seasons musical phenomena, remains
intact, with John Charles Thomas,
Vida Bennett and others. A popular
priced matinee is given on Wednes-
days.
