MURDER DELAYS FINAL
CLOSING OF STATION
Adams Street Building Goes
Out of Existence.

Tho Adams street police station In
Brooklyn, one OF the oldest station
houses in the borough, was to have
closed at ~ :01 O'Clock this morning by
order of Commissioner Richard T.. En-
right, but IL did not actually and off,
clally close until ssvsn minutes later.
IL went out of existence working as
hard as ever TO solve crimes.
The delay was due to the necessity
Of entering on the blotter and making
a report of murder which was COM
mitted In johnson street about half past
10 o'clock, when Pasquale Mosca OF 226
Hillary street was shot and killed. Mosca

lice Department with the same sincerity,
unfiagging adherence to duty and ef-

BILE for their conduct"
In his salutation Mr.. Enright said
that when he became Police Commits
sioner he found 'the formev administra-
ton had practically ceased to function
after the results Of the election of 1917
were announced" He found that every
possible fad and fancy had been tried
Woods. and that there was virtually no
organization to carry out the routine
work of the department.
The charges against the Amirall
Grand Jury are elaborate in the body
OF the report, with affidavits of detec-
tives who tried to get back the de-
partment records, and with reference
to the Indictment OF Inspector Dominick
Henry. Large sections of the testimony
before the courts in the Henry case are
printed. The attack on the press also is
expanded. 1t says;
'The city stands to-day at the zenith
of it's development and magnifioence--
beyond reach of competition. Such cam
continues to misrepresent II as a sink Of
iniquity, n lineal descendant Of Sodom
and Gomorrah, and the abode and head
quarters of all manner of loathsome
and uncomfortable vice. Were there
one scintila Of evidence to corroborate
any of the foregoing assumptions there
would still exist, in my mind. some
doubt as to the propriety OF the press
OF this city constantly pointing an ac-
cusing finger at II.
Taken by and large the meaningless
mealy mouthings and febrile flights of
journalistic fancy so lavishly hurled
against the Police Department and the
Police Commissioner in the last year
were about as fruitful as the dreadful
onslaught made by Don Quixote de la

The report includes separate report
from each deputy commissioner, inspec-
tor precinct and detective branch cap

letters of commentator Mr.. Enright
SAYS were received by the department
during 1920. These take UP thirty-four
pages alone.

"Atta cIxs Easy % Identify"

"The hostile press of this city, always
in the forefront when an attack is made
on the Police Commissioner or Police
Department, was reduced to dire straits
because of n lack OF material to give
color to its assaults. Ultimately finding
that no such material existed resort was

"A regular campaign OF this sort OF

the simplest mistakes made by police

What Is
NeU York University?

THE purpose of this series
of talks is to make New
York University better known
among the readers of this paper.
Measured in terms of human
service, it is among the greater
educational institutions of the
western world. Last year only
five other universities in the
United States reported a larger
enrolment. The fact that it is
not better known by the citizens
of this City is due to tn, re main
reasons:

1. 1t is comparatively young. 1t
is only now completing the nine
tieth year of its history, and its re-
markable growth has been almost
wholly of the twentieth century.
2. 1t is obscured by the bigness of
the city. Even an enrolment of
10000 is almost lost in a city of
100000 souls. Moreover, these
$4,000 students are not con-
ccntrated in one place, but with
view to the greatest usefulness are
scattered in four different uni
versity centers.
8. 1t is easily confused with
neighboring institutions of similar
name. Columbia University in the
City of New York, founded as
Kings College in 1854; the College
of the City of New York, estab-
iished by the Board of Education
in 1S48 and supported by the mu-
nicipality; the University of the
State Of New York, an administra-
tive body with headquarters at
Albany-all these are occasionally
mistaken for New York University.

 EX-FAULKNfR
 MAN, SUICIDES

Dr. s. r. Naughter, about 47 years of age, a native of Faulkner county and physician and coroner at Little Rock, committed suicide by taking poi son this morning, according to an As sociated Press dispatch to the Log Cabin Democrat W. C. Naughter, his brother, was called over long distance shortly after the suicide and left Con- way by automobile at 11:30. At the time the message was sent, Dr. Vaughter was still alive, but his broth CT was informed death might occur momentarily. III health was assigned by the Associated Press dispatch as the cause of the suicide.
 Dr. Vaughter was born near Green brier and removed to Conway when only a small boy. His education was completed in schools here and his medi- cal course taken at the University of Arkansas medical department, Little Rock, He left Conway about 20 years ago, making his home at Little Rock. In addition to his work as a practic- ing physician, pr. Naughter had been coroner of Pulaski county for a num- Der of years and was highly regard ed by the profession and public at large.
 Surviving Dr. Vaughter are his widow and six children, four sons and two daughters, all of Little Rock; his father, Prof. J. M. C. Vaughter of Conway, two brothers, W. c. of Con- way and Tom, now in Wisconsin, and two married sisters. It was said to- day that Prof. Vaughter is in Texas and will not be able to reach Little Rock before Thursday. One sister re- sides in Colorado.
 Dr. Vaughter's suicide came as a distinct shock to his Conway friends, who were unaware of his bad health.

COTTON MARKETS
 SLIGHTLY LOWER

After opening at an advance the cotton markets weakened today and the close was at net decline of about 15 points. July New York contracts closed at 12.92 cents, 15 points lower, and October at 1862 cents, 16 points down. In New Orleans July closed at 12.53 cents, II points down, and October declined IA points, closing at 1918 cents. Spots in New York were 15 points lower at 1275 cents and in New Orleans were unchanged at 11.63 cents.
 A considerable amount of cotton has been marketed here during the past few days at prices ranging sharply higher than those prevailing a couple of weeks ago. Middling white cotton IS readily bringing II cents, while a few bales of strict middling have been sold at 12 cents and better. Lower grades ranger from l cents down to $ cents and lower.

STAND
 TO FORCE HUN
 CABINET FALL
(By the Associated Press)

Berlin, May 4.-Reparations devel- opment in London were discussed by the German cabinet at an extraordi- nary session today.
 The life of the present cabinet will depend upon the nature of the allied ultimatum, which the supreme coun- cil is expected to issue today. General opinion in Berlin is that the ultimatum will force the resignation of Foreign Simons and the entire Fehrenbach ministry.
 London dispatches indicate that the supreme counncil will accept the ul- timatum framed by the separations committee, and will transmit it to Berlin May 6, allowing the German government until May 12 to accept it's terms.
