 N. Y. Mayor Says

New York, Oct. 22.- New York is ready to suspend all public works until it is learned if there is "oper competition in bidding for the work"
 This announcement was made here late today by Mayor Hylan, when the joint legislative committee ad- journed until November 4, after it's counsel had asserted it had only scratched the surface in it's inves- tigaton of the "building trust"
 Developments in the building sit uation came in a dramatic fashion, this afternoon, after Mayor Hylan had addressed the board of estimate, declaring that "the building trust, the milk trust, the coal trust and other trusts have built wall about New York greater than the great wall of China"
 While the executive committee was quizzing witnesses in one chamber of the city hall, the board of estimate meeting in another rescinded four Contracts, involving approximately on New York's county's proposed seven million dollars worth of work court house.
 "While the legislative committe held but brief session today, Sam uel Untermyer, committee counsel examined several witnesses regard ing the activities of the alleged la bor-contractor combination which he asserted was Stif1inp construct on work in Nek York City,

Denies Promises
 Made to Pope

New York, Oct. 22.-James A Fla herty, supreme knight of the Knights of Columbus, tonight issued a state ment denying the statement in the Giornale dTtalia that the order on the recent pilgrimage of it's represen- tatives to Rome had assured Pope Benedict XI, an American ship would be awaiting his command should grave trouble arise in Italy,
 "Of course" said MT. Flaherty, "we could give his holiness no such as- surance on the part of the United States. What we did promise was aid to the head of our church to our utmost ability whenever he might have need of us.
 "The statement that the Knights of Columbus undertook to raise $1,- 000,000 for the vatican is also incor- rect. We gave his holiness Peters pence from our own pockets to sub- stantial amount, and I am sorry it was not hundred times what we were able to give, for the pope has unceasing callings for his chari- ties"
