HYLAN ASSAILS STATE
AND FEDERAL OFFICERS
Tells Sheepshead Bay Audi
ence of Merits of City Rule.

Corporate interests are ruling the
State of New York through the State
Government at Albany. Mayor Hylan
told more than 200 city officials last
night at a get together dinner in VILE
pigue's Inn at Sheepshead Bay. In addi-
ton to this misfortune. he declared. the
whole United States is being ruled by
international bankers through Washing
ton.
We've been insulted and imposed on
by those at Albany" said the Mayor,
land we don't intend to stand for il much
longer. The time has come when 1t
wont be a question of Democrats or
Republicans. and It is for the people of
both parties to join the fight against
those who wish to exploit the people.
There is Government at Washing
ton to-day composed of international
bankers, and the Government at Albany
is run by the corporate interests. They
have tried to break down the Govern
ment of this city, which is being con-
Quoted in the real interests OF the city
We must stick together and fight for
the welfare of the city"
The Mayor also spoke at length on
the duties of the various heads of de-
partments and their employees, declar-
ing that the Commissioner who regards
his job as a political berth in which he
can loll comfortably is cheating the city.

100000 IN COCAINE
SEIZED ABOARD SHIP
Custom Men Get Greatest
Haul Ever in Port by
Raiding the Braga.
TEN VESSELS SEARCHED
Rye Whisky Found in Case
Labelled Photographs on
Board Barge at Pier.

Cocaine worth about 100000 on the
local market was seized yesterday by
customs Inspectors aboard the steamship
Braga Of the Fabre line, just after the
vessel had docked at Thirty-first street.
Brooklyn. The seizure was. declared to
be the largest ever made on board a
steamship in New York harbor.
Ten raids In all were made during the
day on vessels in connection. with the
war on smugglers waged by Thomas w.
Whittle. Surveyor of the Port. Liquor
was found on some of the other ships.
The cocaine aboard the Braga was
found cleverely concealed behind par
tition in the galley. The officers had
gone over the ship carefully after II ar
rived from Marsailles and had found
only few bottles of liquor and trinkets
in possession of the crew.
AS the raiders. left the vessel In
spector John Sterling fingered for a
final search of the galley. A paneling
had been freshly painted and Sterling
pointed 1t out to the cook. asking what
1t meant Then he called back the other
officers. The partition was torn away
with an ak, revealing cache of bottles.
boxes and bags Of stuff which the GUS
toms men recognized as cocaine. The
containers were tucked in blankets to
prevent breakage. The entire lot was
taken to Manhattan.
The crew was questioned for hours,
but all denied ownership and knowledge
Of the drugs. The cook blamed it on
ghosts. No one was arrested.
On board a Pennsylvania Railroad
barge tied up at Pier 22 at James Slip
in the East River customs agents opened
one of a number of cases supposedly
containing monographs and found it
held rye whisky. The cases, 1t waa said.
had been shipped from a Grand street
concern and addressed to a firm in
Cleveland. They were seized No ar
rests were made.
Two men leaving the steamship
Bridgetown Of the Clyde Line, docked at
Pier East River at Coenties Slip, were
stopped by agents and were found to
possess four bottles of liquor each. The
bottles were seized and the men Were
permitted to pay $5 for each bottle in
lieu of being arrested.
On the same pier the agents arrested
John Dornellan, 80, of 40 West 129th
street longshoreman; Salvatore Pascopa,
81. of Is Bushwbck avenue. Brooklyn, a
waiter. ana Alphonso Ferri. 81, of IS
Bush wick avenue. They were charged
with smuggling.
Pascopa and Ferri. said the agents.
were found loading two sacks of liquor
into a motor launch at the end of the
pier. John Cappadona. 40, Of $50 Henry
street, Brooklyn, alleged owner of the
launch. was arrested. Twenty bottles Of
liquor were said to have been found in
the launch.

S6,OO0,O0O OF EMO
FUND FOR COLUMBIA
Details of Settlement With
held, but High Authority
Gives Estimate.

The will Of Amos F. Emo. whose estate
of approximately s1S.0o0.00o has been
in litigation for more than six years
was admitted to probate in the surro-
gates Court late yesterday afternoon.
Surrogate Foley. who was instru-
mental in effecting the settlement last
month before the third trial OF the con-
test, was scheduled to begin before him,
signed the decree in his chambers. II
was just seven years and two days after
the document had been drawn by Mr..
Emo.
Letters of administration were granted
to I.ucius III. Beers of 25 Broadway, the
only surviving executor.
Although the terms of settlement were
not disclosed. 1t was learned on excel
lent authority last night that Columbia
University will receive nearly S6,000,000
as its share of the resduary estate. in
stead OF the S4.000,000 recently mem
toned as the probable figure. This was
the principal bequest over which MEM
bers of Mr.. Eno's family and his de-
scendants twice contested the will in
the Surrogates' Court.
Clarence Fl. Shearn, who represented
Columbia University in arriving at a
WITH w NllildHl NeSOH OTDHl-
well, of counsel for the contesting rela-
tives last month. said when leaving Sur
rogate Foley's chambers that represen-
tatives of contesting relatives and other
benefckaries had agreed not to make
public the basis of settlement, as it was
intimated they might a few weeks ago.
If the other bequests stand in ap-
proximately the same position they did
when the Will was executed by Mr.. Emo,
his relatives and descendants. including
his brother, William p. Emo, and GIFT
ford and Amos r. Z. Pinchot, his
nephews: Mrs, Antoinette z. Wood, a
sister, and his nieces, Florence =.
Graves and Mary F. Emo, will receive
about s4.600,000. Their exact share has
not yet been made public. but this was
the total mentioned when the will was
offered for probate in 1915.
Amos F. Emo, was the son Of Amos r
Emo, who built and owned the old Fifth
Avenue Hotel. He died in his home, 81
Fifth avenue, October 21, 1915, in his
seventy ninth year, leaving will
executed June IS of that year which
was in sharp contrast to one drawn
more than a year prior to that time
dividing his entire estate among his
relatives The later will bequeathed to
them approximately half his estate, the
remainder going to public institutions, of
which Columbia University received the
largest share as residuary legatee.
1t is reported the litigation over the
will cost s1.000.000.

HOTELS HERE REJECT
PARIS WATERS GARB
Color of Ties Enough to Mark
SERVANTS From, Guests.

Regarding THE NEW YORK HERALp's
cabled report from Paris yesterday that
walters in the fashionable hotels and
restaurants there were being forced to
don short white jackets instead of the
traditional black tailed coats in order
that they might be distinguished from
guests. the Hotel Association of New
York city In statement issued yester-
day said that such a movement is un-
necessary. The statement added:
The New York waiter is always con-
spicuous by the fact that the color OF
bis tie is the reverse of what is usually
considered good form. His full dress
suit calls for black tie. and with Il
Ginner coat he wears a white tie.
There is a tendency here toward in
formality during the summer months.
Lightweight and off-color apparel is
being worn by walters to a certain ex-
tent. During the winter. however, the
formality of full dress is observed. Some
hotels have a. distinctive uniform for
their walters"

Equipment Pending Repairs.

The Interborough Rapid Transit Conf
pany's power equipment sustained the
stress of the rush hour traffic of las-
evening and yesterday morning without
any further breakdown such as char
actsrized train movement late Monday
afternoon. Frank Hedley. president and
general manager OF the system. does not
guarantee that there will os no further
trouble.
Mr.. Hedley was summoned to a confer
ence yesterday with the Transit COM
mission to explain the service Interrupt
ton of the previous afternoon. which
seriously inconvenienced hundreds of
thousands of homegong passengers.
After the conference he admitted that
the 1nterborough and its allied lines will
have to depend probably for two weeks
or more upon the emergency equipment
of the Seventy-fourth street power sta
ton. which proved inadequate to the
load thrown upon 1t Monday. That
period of time. hs thought, would BE-
required to restore the damaged gen.
orator to first class OPERA ting condition.
We Will be skating upon thin ice so
far as coal stocks and adequats power
are concerned" said Mr.. Hedley. The
president of the Interborough conceded
that In the last ninety days the COM
pany had been forced to buy 10000 tons
of soft coal in the open market to re :.
inforce its regular contract supplies
from the Berwind-White Coal Company
and the Consolidated Coal Company.
Much of this open market. or spot
coal he declared, is of an inferior steam
making quality. 1t comes largely from.

States Commissioner Chapman. after a

attorneys for Charles w. Morse Of New
York and Rupert NJ. Much of Augusta
that the shipbuilder and his associate.
indicted on charges OF conspiracy to de-
fraud the Government in connection with

Counsel argued that the Government.
had not offered sufficient evidence to
show probable cause for holding the two
men and attacked the validity Of the
indictment. They saved exceptions to
the overruling of the motion.
The hearing. which had for its prin-
cipal object the determination OF the
Government petition for removal OF
Messrs. Morse and Much to New York
to answer to the indictment, was con-

OF its large purchases.
When Mr.. Hedley was asked why the
regular coal contractors were falling
short In their contract deliveries he ad-
mitted that the strike of the soft coal
miners was partly responsible. He In
timated, also. however. that he thought
the contractors were "just quitting" and
making little il any extra effort to meet
the demands Of the present emergency.
H. N. Latey, the Transit Commissions
engineer Of equipment and operation.
after an investigation reported the direct
cause of the breakdown was the failure
of a 10000 kilowatt unit in the Seventy
fourth street power station. due to a short
circuit on the collector rings, which oc-
Cured at go r. NJ. At the time one of
the 10000 kilowatt units at Seventy
fourth street was out of service for in.
spection and repairs and another similar
unit in the Fifty-ninth street power
station was out of service on account of
reconstruction being carried on by the
General Electric Company. Failure OF
the second unit in Seventy-fourth street.
therefore. eliminated 10000 kilowatts
from the power facilities ordinarily
available.
Corporation Counsel OBr:en, criticiz-
irg the report made to him by Chairman
McAneny of the Transit Commission on
the strike expenditures of 1920 made by
the B. r. T. system, said: There is one
glaring omission in the report and that
is the omission of any statement with
regard to the Justification Of the ex-
renditure of any of the moneys which
make up the amazing total of s2.4S3,-
3S3.48. The query naturally arises-is
MIR. McAneny going to close this matter
with this perfunctory examination of his
accountants?"
