Accused of being the _ \Mr. Reil- ly, \ who offered to \ release \ the 16-year-old son of former Munici- pal Court Justice Edgar F. Hazel- ton , of North port , if $25 , 000 was sent to him by Way of carrier pig- eon , George Marthens , 48 , an un- employed painter ., of 22 Gladiola avenue , Floral Park , was arraigned in Jamaica Magistrate ' s Court. Mr. Hazelton is ' read y to sign a complaint against Marthens , charg- ing attempted extortion. Marthens , according to Detec- tives Harry Krause , Theodore Bar- ger and Frank Heyner , of the Ja- maica squad , has confessed to be- ing the mysterious \Mr. Reilly, \ who employed the use of the pig- eons in an attempt to get the ran- som. The police say they found in the painter s automobile a copy of a metropolitan newspaper, dated August 22 and containing a story of the disappearance of Edgar F. Hazelton , jr., three days prior. They further allege that the tele- phone number in the Hazelton ' s home is written on the bottom of the first page. Notes Demanded $25 , 000 The three detectives have been seeking the owner of the ransom pi geons since the plot was first re- vealed on Aug. 31. On that day, a man , who described himself as \ Mr. Reilly, \ said that if Mr. Hazelton would go to a certain cigar store in Flushing, he would find a carrier p igeon . The caller further directed the attorney to tie $25 , 000 on the leg of the bird and his son would be released and per- mitted to go home. After finding the bird in the store , Hazelton sent a message saying he would not send any money unless given proof that his son was being held against his will.

Midst the golden glow of a pass- in» summer . Fair Week comes with a smile of welcome for the glorious months of Fall. With this setting as a background , the Seventy-ninth Annual Fair of the Suffolk County Agricultural Society opens on Tuesday morning, with present prospects for one of the finest Fairs m N . ew York State. Into its preparation has gone a year of unremitting labor by those charged with the responsibility for its success. Each year as the Fair grows larger , the work in connec- tion with it increases in proportion. New features , increase of ex- hibits , fine entertainment and a generally better Fair are the re- sults. The credit Is due to the officers of the society who are Nathan H. Dayton , East Hampton , president; Ellis T. Terry, Riverhead , treasur- er; Edward H. Albertson . River- oad , superinendent of the horse department ; the secretary, Frank M. Corwin , of Riverhead, and to those members whose effective con- stapt 1 co-operation given these leaders , have, made their accom- plishments possible. The entries which closed yester- day, are still pouring into the Sec- retary ' s office , this alone indicates the \ interest taken in the Fair. All records for the poultry department have been broken and special ar- rangements will have to be made to house the overflow. Over 500 beautiful pigeons are listed , be- sides a wonderful collection of rabbits and pheasants. The automobile show plans are comp lete , and here you will find a collection of the late models. In- cluded in the show , and which will be of great interest to the farmers are the latest designs of tractors and trucks. Nearby will be the big machinery exhibit, showing labor saving devices used in modern The ' society has contracted for the National Microphone Systems , which will be installed in front of the grandstand, annou ncing the events and result\ of the contests. One of the most interesting events of the fair will be the baby parade and pageant in gaily dec- orated gigs , floats, carriages and carts. More than thirty silver cups will be awarded. ¦ In addition to prizes for the best babies judged in several classes ac- cording to age , there will be prizes for the best infant specimen of hu- manity, judged as to the point* ->f physical proportions , weight , looks , health , and other conditions—that will be a contest to decide which is the best all-around baby in the show. Then there will also be prizes for the best red headed baby boy and red headed baby girl , best pair of twins , best set of triplets , and also for the most popular baby. For girls , 12 years old or older , there is a keen competition to de- termine who is the most popular girl in Suffolk County, and when she is discovered by way of contest , she will be publicly crowned at the fair grounds as \Miss Suffolk. \ Special attention is called to the program of events for Saturday. Starting with the big auto races , the speed classic of the year wilt include the greatest dirt track drivers of the age. At night the Elks of Patchogue Lodge No. 1323 , in the sweet name of charity will stage 15 rounds of the fastest boxing ever witnessed in Suffolk County. The .bouts will take place in front of the \rand- stand at 8:15 p. m. and arrange- ments are being made to seat 5 , 000 Elks, their families and friends. Good Horse Racing Some exceptionally good horse racing is anticipated. A total of 75 horses have been en- tered in the races. In the 2:22 trot there are 21 en- tries; 2.22 pace , nine; 2.18 pace , six; 2.14 pace , six ; 2:14 trot , seven s 2.18 trot , seven; three-year-old trot , six; two-year-old trot , six , and two- year-old pace , five. First (Deputy County Clerk Ed- ward H. Albertson , superintendent of the horse department , will havs to quarter about twenty of the horses in tents , as there are only 59 stalls in the barns on the Fair Grounds. A number of stalls were destroyed b y fire since last year ' s fair. Secretary Frank M. Corwin re- ports that the list of entries made in the poultry show has broken all records, totalling near ly 3 , 500. More than 1 , 200 entries had to be returned because of lack of space in the exhibition hall and tents.

The body of Benjamin P. Collings , bound and battered , was washed up on the shore at Lloyd' s Harbor on the Sound off the estate of Mar- shall Field near dawn yesterday. Collings was murdered by night pirates who boarded his yacht , Penguin as it lay in the harbor at anchor a week ago. Collings ' hands and feet were tied in expertly looped sailors ' knots and his head had been crush- ed as though by a weighty weapon. While details of the discovery of the body were at first meagre . In- spector Harold B. King, who has been leading Nassau County detec- tives in the search for the two night pirates , immediatel y left Mineola for Huntington , where an autopsy will be performed on the body. The discovery of Collings ' body bound in almost the exact manner recounted by his wife , Mrs. Lillian Collings , in her tale of murder and assault, noticeably supported her story, which District Attorney Al- exander G. Blue, of Suffolk , frank- ly doubted. Wife Not Notified Mrs. Collins , haggard and broken under the ordeal of the night assault and subsequent rigors of police examination , was not im- mediately notified of the discovery ta Stamford , Conn. Collings ' brother, Herbert , left for Huntington with his attorney, William A. Kelly, to formallv iden- tify the body. Mrs. Collings will , for the time being, be spared the ordeal of viewing the corpse. The report emanating from Lloyd' s Harbor at 7 a. m., came through Amza Biggs , Jr., a special beach patrolman along the exclus- ive waterfront of rich estates. Bi ggs said : \I came here at 6:40 a. m., along with my friend , Walter Brown , to start my patrol along the beach. We had just crossed a stone wall that gave us a good view of the beach when I noticed the body ly- ing face downward in the sand. It was near the boathouse and well up on the beach. \I guessed right away that it was Collings , from the way it was dressed. I immediately notified my father Amza Biggs , Sr., who is a deputy sheriff* . He got hold of As sistant District Attorney Fred Munder and some other officers and they all came down and agreed with me it was Collings. Then they sent out word to the other au- thorities and pretty soon people be- gan arriving from everywhere. \ Hands Behind His Back Mr. Munder made a tentative identification of Collings from the khaki unionall he wore. Collings was bound with quarter-inch rope , his hands tied behind the back and the rope continuing around to his feet , which would make it impos- sible for him to wr- ' -^Ie free. District Attorney Blue was ex- pected to take charge of the case immediately, but it could not be learned whether or not he would hold Mrs. Collings as a material witness. Inspector King reached the scene with a police photographer .for the usual preliminaries in such a dis- covery. Their progress through the extensive Field estate was slow. They were compelled to drive through winding paths , to make sudden stops to avoid running \ down groups of horsemen—guests of Captain Field—who were un- aware of the tragedy. \This discovery is in Suffolk County, of course, \ King answered in regard to a question of jurisdic- tion. \But I have been instructed by my superiors to give the Suf- folk County authorities every as- sistance. \ This was confirmed by District Attorney Edwards at Mineola. He declared as before that he \ still believed\ Mrs. Collings ' story, but probably would call her before the Nassau Grand Jury next week to investigate the kidnapping phase of the case and the attack on her.

Le e Newspapers Offer Their Readers an O pportunity to Reg is ter Their A pproval or Disapproval of the Expenditure of $5 , 000 , 000 f or Shelter Island Brid ges and Oth er Public Improv ements. The $5, 000 , 000 bond issue proposed b y the Board of Supervisors for a number of public improvements including the building of two bridges to connect Shelter Island with the mainland , has bee n the general subject of public discussion throug hout the county during the past few months and the peop le have become so aroused in thei r enthusiasm either for or against the proposition , that the Lee Newspapers , including the County Review , The Bay Shore Journal and the Suffolk Bulletin of Huntington , have decided to take a straw vote to give their readers , who form a very large part of the citizenship of the county, a chance to express their views . Ballot To Be Printed In next week' s issue of each of the th ree newspapers , a ballot will be printed on the first page and the readers of all three papers are urged to cut out the ballot , indicate thereon whether they favor or disapprove the bond issue , and mail the ballot to the newspaper from which the ballot was clipped. It will not be nee essary for the voter to si gn his or her name. We have no interest in knowing who the voter is , but the publishers feel that the readers of these newspapers will be interested to know j ust how the people reall y feel about this great public improvement. The courts have ruled that the Board of Supervisors were well within their rights when th ey voted the bond issue without sub mitting it to a referendum of the taxpayers of the county, and that the issue is in every way legal , so that any action now taken can have little forceful reaction. The Lee Newspapers be lieve the people of the cou n ty will , however , be deepl y interested to know the attitude of the v oters and will , throug h these papers , be g lad to express their op inion. Opinion of Voters Valuable While a complete vote will not be pos sible , these three newspapers so thoroug hl y cover Suffolk county with their large circulations , it is believed if the readers of them will co- operate by mailing in their ballots , a sufficient percentage of the voters will be received to g ive a pretty accurate cross-section of the voting power of the county. Readers are requested to cli p the ballot which will appear on the first page of the Lee Newspapers , The County Review , The Bay Shore Journal and The Suffolk Bulletin of Huntington , next week and after marking it , mail it promptly to the paper from which it was clipped. Watch for the ballot next week. rarta Wins In The Onl y Primary Contest ¦ eats Howe by Majority of 4 , 776 for Republican Nomination for ¦ Sheriff—-Organization Scores Decisive Victory.
