YACHTING DEBATE
 LEADS ID FRAY
Crew Posses Skipper Into Water {. Alter His Tirade

New York, Sept. II (UP)-The warm September sun shone down on the Brooklyn waterfront and men went about their tasks lazily. But aboard the good scoE Tessie, riding gently at anchor under cargo of bricks, there was mutiny in the air.
 The crew had slowed away the last red brick and awaited only the arrival os the tug which was to escort them on their voyage across the harbor to Hoboken. In the in- terval they naturally turned to a topic near to the heart of seafar- ing men-the Americas cup races.
 It appeared the subject was 9 delicate one Captain Andrew Dale. besides being British, was a salt of the old school. He shared the con- tempt of all deepwater sailors for such "new-fangled ideas" as zip per beoms. metal masts, and winches for raising sails. He ex- pressed his contempt, as only an old salt can, of the cup defender Enterprise, which is equipped with many mechanical contrivances..
 The crew of the Tessie, good Americans all, tried at first to req son with the cap'n. They pointed out how times had changed, that this is a mechanical age, and that MT. Burgess, the designer, and Mir. Vanderbilt, the skipper, seemed to put great faith in the new devices.
 Berates Enterprise"
 But the cap'n was not to be req soned with. He passed, from jtrib- ute to Sir Thomas Lipton and Shamrock V, into references to the American Defender and her after guard which, to put it mildly. were distinctly uncomplimentary.
 Finally the.crew decided to set tie the relative merit of Enterprise and Shamrock once and for all, and seizing their skipper, they heaved him body overheard into the dank waters of Newtown creek.
 Landlubbers arrived and dragged the captain from the water. As an afterthought, they took both skip per and crew to the police station.

 A native of South Glastonbury, he enlisted as private September z, 1861. four days before his 18th birthday, in the famous old Connecti- cut volunteers. He was in every en- gagement in which the regiment was involved but was never wounded all though he had numerous narrow es- capes.

Taking the stand that Che city was not liable for the damage caused to buildings, gardens, lawns and the drowning of baby chicks by the heavy -rainstorm of July. 6, the claims committee of the common council voted last night to recom- mend that nine petitioners be given leave to withdraw. The claimants were heard at length, all of them living on Clinton street, Burrltt street. Pennington avenue. and Broad street, and they related that the water flowed over the catch basins and into their yards, sweep ing dirt and debris before it, flood ing cellars in some instances and weakening house foundations in others Driveways were washed away and deep .gulleys dug by the force of the water.
 Assistant City Engineer George Molleur and Inspector Fred Murphy of the public works department ex- plaineds the location of the proper ties on map, and MT. Molleur said the gauge on the roof of City Hall registered Is inches of rain in something less than one hour on the day in question. He said the storm water sewer in the vicinity of the damaged property was large enough to care for ordinary storms, and it would be impractical to construct sewers of sufficient size to carry of water falling as hard as it did on July 6. By installing curbs and pavement ons Albany avenue and Clinton street the situation would be relieved, he pointed out, because the water would then flow more readily into the catch basins and there would be less possibility of washing dirt from the surface of the road into the mouth of the basins, block ing them and forcing the water to pour across the sidewalks and into the yards.
 The claimants were the following: Joseph Kowalczyk, asking s100 for damage at 246 Btfrritt street; Antoni Lozinski, represented by his wife, claiming s25 for damage at 236 Bur- ritt street; stanislaw Jablonski, claiming $50 for damage at 367 Broad street; Mrs. Rose Ruczczyk. claiming se5 for damage at 374 Broad street: Alexander and Mike Kaminsky claiming s1,500 for dam- age at Pennington avenue: Gal- liaus Lazzerini, claiming $4,0O0 for damage at 26 Clinton street; Will liam Kowalszik. claiming s2,000 for damage at 36% Clinton street; Peter Bardeck and M. Zajdel, claiming $50 for damage at 365 Broad street; Luigi Fabale. claiming s90. for dam- age at PAP Burritt street. The claims totalled $7,S60.
 The claims committee filed the fol- lowing recommendations with the city clerk today for action at the council meeting next week: Claim of Joseph Wratschko of 30 Norden street for s93.75 for damage to au- tomobile by reason of alleged defect in highway on Linwood street. full amount allowed: Mrs. Nellie Kar- lon of 9S Willow street, leave to withdraw claim for compensation for injuries sustained In fall on al- legged slippery sidewalk at 62S Main street.
