This apparently has not been determined. Rose and Bill Briggs were at the nosele when Hose 4 was competing in the motor pump. contest. Connection was quickly made und the water came through swith such force as to throw both men. Rose lay absolutely. still. Comrades rushed up to him and carried him to an adjoining lawn.

Novelty in Ladder Climbing A novelty was introduced In ladder climbing in the Motor Hook & Ladder contest, when Thomas Murray, of the winning team, Glen Cove Salvage Corps, ran up the ladder while it was being raised and turned to continue to the top just before it reached por- tion against the arch. The time was 32 1-5 seconds. Glen Cove Engine Company, with Murray again the lad: der man, was second, 331-5; Salaman- der M. & L. Co. of Ocean Side third, 3325; and Amityville, No. 1, fourth, 4145.

The ladder man of the AJeris of Great Neck, had a narrow escape from injury when the ladder broke as it came in contact with the arch, about one third down from the top and he swung out nearly a foot aa he reached the top rung. His weight was in his favor, for had he Been heavier, the opposite side would surely have broken and caused a fall. Shouta of warning came from thousands of throats. Alvin-d removal -to the hospital. >This was done at once. Rose is ubout 28 years old, He is building a home on West Dean street, Freeport and it is common talk that when completed he will marry Miss Florence Smith and they will make it their home. He is an employee of the Columbian Bronze Corporation. Premmire at the hydrant in the tour- nament is maid to be 120 pounds and with a capacity for pumping more than 700 gallons a minute, the combined force wus too mich for the two men.

The last event of the might was the chemical company run ning contest and was carried out un- der electric lights with red lanterns used for starting flags. It was after # -a'clock when the contents ended. Many records of last year were broken. The crowd that filled the grand mtand and part of the course, were \stickers\ or else they were deceived by the daylight saving time. Many were on. hand when the last event was completed.

Chief Smith waited for cach evidence he was not afraid of getting wet.

RAFFERTY Ws JOB MCWRNNEY HOPED TO GET Brooklyn Man, Friend of Senator Calder, Nominated for Internal Revenue - Collector - Calder's Friendship With President Hard- ing Apparently Too Much for Nassau's Aspirant for the Place Mincola, June 17.-John T. Rafferty of Brooklyn has been nominated for In ternal Revenue Coliector for this district to succéed Bertram Gardner of Garden City. The nomination was sent to the Sen ate yesterday and it is expected that Mr. Rafferty, who is Senator William M Calder's selection, will get the appoint- ment. Assemblyman Thomas A. McWhinney of the First Assembly District of Nas sau County was an aspirant for this place, having had the endorsement of the Nassau County Republican Comit tee gnd the backing of Jacob Living ston, Republican leader of Kings Coun- ty. The nomination-6f-Mr.-Rafferty in the place of Mr. McWhinney is an indica- tion of the fight that Senator Calder is giving Leader Livingston for the con: trol of the federal patronage in this dis trict. Senator Calder had m place adjoining President Harding in the Senate when Mr. Harding was a Senator from Ohio. Senator Calder and President Harding are close personal friends and It is as sumed that President Harding will maintain that friendship with Senator Calder and will sustain him insofar as he can in the distribution of federal of: fices in Senator Calder's district. The district for which Mr. Rafferty is nominated as an Internal revenue col: lector includes all of Long Island and Brooklyn. Mr. Rafferty has had a long political career and has been a rtrong supporter of Senator Calder always. Mr. Rafferty is executive member of the Twelfth As sembly District Republican Club dn which Senator Calder is a power. He was for years president of the Repub: lican District organization in the 12th and when Mr. Calder relinquished the title of executive member in~1912, Mr. Rafferty assumed it. Mr. Rafferty is a member of the firm of J. W. Masters Company, one of the foremost brokerage concerns in the United States. GARDEN CITY WILL BUY FIRE DEPT.

Y., FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 1921 LEVY DENIES STORY TOLD BY W.L. DICKERSON Counsel Whose Name, With That of Leo Fishel, Was Used in Tes- timony Given by Witness After- ward Convicted of Perjury, Wanted To Deny It At Once in Court But Was Advised Not To Mineola, June 17.-Attorney George Morton Levy of Freeport, associate of former Justice Scudder for the defense in the trial of Thomas V. Barbuti and law partner of the former Supreme Court Justice, has made a statement for publication denying. the testimony. of Mervin L. Dickerson, of Lynbrook, which was given at the Burbuti trial, Barbuti testified that he and Carman Plant concocted a story: for Dickerson to tell at the first Plant trial that it was rehearsed in Mr. Levy's offices in the presence of Plant, Leo Fishel who was associated with Mr. Levy in the defense of Plant, und Mr. Levy. Dickerson later confessed that he per jured himself, that the story was wholly untrue and his indictment and that of Barbuti followed Mr. Levy and Mr. Fishel hoth wanted to testify in the Burhuti case to refute Dickerson's testimony, but former Jus: | tice Scudder advised them not to take the stand on the ground that it was Barbuti's trial and not theirs, that it would cloud the Issues in the Barbuti and that former Justice Scudder had decided to ignore the story as being | beyond belief. case Mr. Levy's statement follows: \Dickerson was brought to my office after the first Plant trial had started and was introduced to me in my wait ing room by Plant as the man who had | Junch with him on a certain day at the Elks Club in Freeport. Dickerson was then questioned by me and Leo Fishel and he told us both substantially the same story that he swore to at the first trial. 'The only matters of any import- ance in this story were that on that day he dined with Plant and Barhuti at the Elks Club at Freeport. \I followed the same tactics with Dickerson that any attorney adopta with any witness in an important case, namely, to question him as to all the facts that he claimed that he knew in order to get at the truth of his state- ment. \Even at this date this self-confessed perjurer admits that he told both Mr. Fishel and me that on the day in ques: tion he dined at the Elks with Plant and Barbuti and only claims that it was suggested to him at my office that he had met Plant and Barbuti on the day in question in Mineoia instend of Freeport. 'What difference it could possibly have made to Plant's case or to me where he met Plant that day is beyond my comprehension. I can only repeat that Dickerson told me substantially what he. testified to.\ The purpose of showing that Plant and Barbuti were at the Elks Club in- atead of at Ellison's restaurant, where the state's witnesses swore they were, was for the purpose of discrediting these witnesses and for the purpose of showing that Plant and Barbuti did not consort with self-confessed criminals. WILL PICNIC ON BEACH SUNDAY AND HOLD OPEN AIR RELIGIOUS SERVICE Merrick, June 17.-The entertainment committee of' Merrick Social Club met last night at the residence of Vice President Reich, and made arrange- ments for an outing next Sunday to High Hill Beach.

The regulations are very specific about the color of footwear, It was all off, right then and there, and the best looking fire department on Long Island lost the coveted honor on mecount of two pedal extremitie®| that defied the regulations and came, encased in brown. Names do not mat-| ter and only add to the wound, but the fact remains that the Jinx rode with the department and popped up at a time when he was most unwelcome. Truck 1, built for business, came to grief at the start. Capt. George «Hoffman of Truck 1 and his brother Joe tied with each other in the ladder climbing contest and were not far behind the leaders in that event. Archer B.

Bome $50,000 has been spent on them for extermination of mosquitoon. Capt Hanse would have the village sell these lands, that they might be improved and bring in a revenue. He cited the came of other meadows near Garden City that are now devel oped and bringing the town a handsome profit.
