FurnMieil by Mnnhntfnn
Bronx Shows Gnin In Cost.
Enonb bulldlnfra wero erected In
thin city Inst year to make a half dozen
(rood slzd cities. In Mnnhfittnn, The
Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens close, to
12,000 structures! of varlnun types were
erected. If the? were all dwellings of
the one family sort this output would
accommodate 130,000 people, which would
make, a city of the size of Savannah or
Jtarrlfhuri; nr Holyoke. Mo.re than
JIOO.000,000 was expended In new build
ings In the various boroughs. Of this
sum $ll;,.12.,l3r represented the capital
put Into bulldlnsvi In .Manhattan. This
eutn covered the cunetnictlon of 767
operations. Brooklyn came next with
an outlay of 3fi,000,00ft for fi.105 build
Injta. Then comes th Bronx with an
o.xoendltute of $34,000,000 and $13,000,
00() from Quens.
In moneys put Into new construction
this yenr vv;is far ahead of 1011, but
the number nf operations planned was
not as Kreat as In the precedlnK twelve
months. This can be attributed to the
Increased cost of bulldlntf material,
labor anil hullrtlnc loan. If conditions
hafl been different It Is believed 1912
wtruld have been a banner year In
tttrtldlnn all over the city. Brooklyn
was the most active building Held of
the year, with Queens a close second,
the Bronx next and Manhattan last.
In Brooklyn nearly half of the total
number of building planner! In the four
horoushu were erected there Queens
erected 1.S13. the Bronx 1,310 and Man
hattan 757.
Tim Manhattan operations cost about
127,000.000 more than the total expendi
ture of the other borouch". In this
borouph th" number of buildings
planned a' eighty-three less than In
the preceding year, but there was an
Increase In cost amounting to mors
than $17,000,000 which more than made
up for the slUht shrlnltnce In num
bers. There was no great Tallin off In
any particular kind of buildings. De

200 FRIEDMANS OF
NEW YORK AT DINNER
Senior Member of Family Cir
cle Has Seven ty-f onr reat-Orandchilrlren.
If you went around town looking for
some one named Friedman last night
you probably found no one over the
age of ten bearing that name nt
home. For the Frledmans of New
York were celebrating the third anni
versary of the Friedman Family Circle
at Westminster Hall, 73 Lenox avenue,
and all told there were some 200 Frled
mans there.
When you consider that your
finger, beginning with the first Fried
man In the new city directory, travels
almost from the top of page 518 to the
middle of the first column of page 621,
you realize that the Brown-Jones-Pmlth-Bobtnson
combination has noth
ing to be so very proud of In the matter
of common names.
Of all the Frledmans In the hall last
night sitting at the big banquet table,
discussing family affairs or watching the
young Frledmans dance, the oldest and
against 11 for 1011. The difference In ' Proudest was Mrs. Miriam K. Fried
cost was nearly $10,000,000 In favor of
the year Just closed.
About 11.000,000 more waa Invested
tn office- Vulldlngs last year than In
1911. Jh 1?I1 llfty-one offices were
erected at a cot of $19,601,800 against
forty-elcht last year at n cost of over
$30,000,000, Apartment and tenement
construction was about the same.
Twelve more buildings were erected In
1911 than In 1912 and the difference In
money spent In this line of construc
tion was a little over a million dollars
In favor of the latter period. There
was one more dwelling costing over
$60,000 erected this year than In 1911.
two more hotels, six more factories,
three more schools, nine more munici
pal buildings and six more amusement
places. These were the only classes
where gains were made In the number
of structures.
The cost of new buildings and alter
ations In The Bronx for 1912 was 48 j
man, who came to this country from
Warsaw over eighty years ago and
who has been a mother eleven times,
sixty-five times n grandmother and
who Is called great-grandmother by
seventy-four young Frledmans, the
latest of whom came Into his name
three days ago.. All of Mrs. Miriam's
children aro living In this city and all
have children ef their own who have
gone and done likewise. Mr. and Mrs.
Bella Friedman, for example, have
eight children and twelve grandchild
ren and there's Mr. and Mrs. Klva
Friedman with seven children and fif
teen grandchildren, and Mr. and Mrs.
I.leb Friedman with nine children and
fourteen grandchildren, and so on down
the list of the eleven..
When the officers of the Friedman
Family Circle looked upon the way
that clrclo has grown since It was
drawn In 1909 they decided that It
would be wisest to have an age limit
per cent, greater than In 1911. Over t,nls ycar' ,'or ,np ,aBt ,lme ,he circle
$26,000,00 was the estimated cost of
tenement houses planned In 1912, which
exceeded by over $11,000,000 the cost In
1911
The cost of dwellings In 1912 de
creased $1,200,000 as compared with the
previous year. The cost of public build
ings last year amounted to over
$3,500,000, or about $1,600,000. In excess
of 1911. Factory buildings In 1912 ex
ceeded the cost In 1911 by about $800,
000 and a substantial Increase Is also
shown In the cost of schools, from
$129,000 in 1911 to $919,000 In 1912.
met several of tho very youngest
Frledmans who were put away In the
cloakroom while the festivities went
on boro so close a resemblance to one
another when it was time to say
good-by and take home the babies that
there was a great ileal of trouble for
the master of ceremonies. This year
Harry J. Friedman of 14S West 111th
street, head of the circle, made It a
rule that all tho Friedman Infants re
main at home.
When the circle was all complete,

Dr. ntchmonrl Aaaw.Ua Bishop Rhlne-
landrr Hmyu Lavrrer la Rnler,
Philadelphia, Jan. B. Taking exeep
tlon to the actions of Bishop Philip M.
Khlnelander In the unfrocking of the
Rev. Dr. Mortimer without giving any
explanation to either clergy or public
and leaving the Inference that the min
ister was deposed from St. Mark's
Church, the Rev. Dr. George Chalmers
Richmond sent a long letter to the
Bishop to-ntght and at the same time
gave it to the press.
Dr. Richmond demands an explana
tlon from the Bishop and declares that
he knows of another minister who is
guilty of the same misconduct as Dr.
Mortimer Is accused of. Lacking an
explanation he says that the clergy will
demand tho Bishop's resignation,
Tho rector further declares that the
diocese Is controlled by a corporation
lawyer nnd that this lawyer Is allied to
tho money trust and seeks to make the
Episcopal Church a servant thereof.
In part Dr. Richmond says;
"Tho clergy of this diocese to-day
have more sympathy for Dr. Mortimer
than for you In your unwise, un
Christian, unmanly position, which all
nlong you have upheld by your silence.
We condemn your course most Bin
, cercly. You owo It to your clergy to
Inform us fully about the ense, so that

CALL FOR RIO MEETING
Investipntion of Now Corpora

Proposed.
Norbert R. Pendergast. chairman of
the New York committee of the In
ternational Association of Hrokers,
which la designed to nrotect tho nubile
against swindlers who call themselves
brokers and to stamp nut swindling
mining and ' other corporations who
take hundreds of millions a yeur out
of the pockets of the unwary, has
Issued a call for a ratification meeting
at the Waldorf-Astoria on February 20.
With this, on behalf of the chair
men of the committees from the other
cities, a tentative constitution has been
submitted to men who are eligible for
membership, which Is to be voted on
subsequently.
Mr. Pendergast believes that the pre
amble to this constitution sufficiently
explains the purpose. It reads:
For tho purpose of binding together In
common fellowship the brokers, of the
United States and Canada for freer dis
cussion and consideration of matters of
mutual Interest and concern and to render
atioh help and assistance In so far 11s it
may bo possible so to do to tnnmhera
thereof, and to augment the field in which
Its members may seek tn do business,
and to aid by It Influence ami advice In
securing the enactment of such legisla
tion from time to time a n 111 tend to
specifically prohibit the flo.ttlng nf any
financial proposition the purport of which
Is not sound and of lawful tenor, and by
so 1I0I11K nt least help in a measure In pro

ther In Its wisdom It should be considered
advisable lend the mice and Influence of
the association to "retire either the pas

ntent of 11 national bureau nf IniestlR.ttlon

of which may be to ofer thlr securities

Investigation by a proper committee.
Tho principal feature of the association
will bo the nutlonal bureau of Investi
gation nt Washington, which will In
vestigate every company which hits
Hl.urcs of stock for snle, and tho mem
bers of the association aro to trade only
In such securities as have the approval
of tho burentt.
The design Is to eliminate the fake
mine, oil, Industrial and railroad cor
porations such as have got their pro
moted In trouble after thousands of
persons have been persuaded to part
with their savings.
According to the clrculnr the New
York committee now consists of Albert

LESS HABEAS CORPUS
FOR CRIMINAL INSANE
Altorney-Ooneral Points Out
Thaw's Many Applications
as an Object. Lesson.
WOULD SIMPLIFY ACTION
Vrgcs the Admission of First
Evidence at, Subsequent
Sessions.
Ai.bant, Jan. 15. The annual report of
Attorney-General Thomas Carmody con
tains a recommendation In regard to the
application of lnsano criminals for dis
charge under habeas corpus. The neces
sity for this Is pointed nut by the
repeated applications of Harry K. Thaw.
"A very serious situation arises and
much of the time of tho Attorney-Gen
eral's department," says Mr. Carmody,
"Is occupied by reason of the fact that
the Inmates of the State hospitals for
the Insane frequently without reason
apply for writs of habeas corpus, and
upon the hearing subsequently had the
Insanity In the patient must be again
considered and established or else the
patient Is released. This results In a
condition where a person who having
committed a crime has avoided the pun
lshment provided by law upon tho
theory that ho Is Insane proceeds to
attempt to recover his liberty upon tho
theory that ho never was lnsano or
that ho has recovered.
"It Ih Incumbent upon the Attorney-
General to resist these applications
where It appears that they aro brought
without proper and sufficient reason.
In cases of some Inmates these applica
tions aro frequent and numerotir. and
Indeed the deslro to mnko tho applica
tion seems to be n part of the trend of
tho unsoundness of mind with which
tho patient Is airllcted. Sometimes upon
these hearings It Is necessnry to Incur
great expenre In summoning witnesses
and In the production of exhibit. Espe
cially Is this true In the enso of para-1
nolacs whose mental delusions are not
nt all times apparent. In such cases it
Is often Incumbent upon the court to
examine tho entire life history of tho
patient mulcted. To product evidence
ns to his doings In remote places and
at remote periods naturally causes great
expenre. I believe that there Is a cry- 1
Ing need In this regard for remedial!
legislation, and I suggest that there be
enacted a statute to the effect that
where n person cnntlned ns an Insane
criminal has once had n hearing upon I
a writ of habeas corpus nny testimony
given or exhibits produced upon thnt
hearing may ho used upon Mib.ciiinnt
hearings without recalling I In- witness.
I propose that some nnteiulment to ex
isting legislation be ctmctcil nlonir the!"
lines, nnd ntotig this lino 1 iiirsi nt the
following to bo added nt the end of
itcctlnn 33 nf the Insanity law:
Where a second or subsequent applica
tion Is made for the discharge from cus
tody of the same patient any parly to the
proceeding may Introduce In evidence the
testimony of nny witness given upon a
preceding hearing uiinn nn application In
discharge such patient from custody, tn
gether lth Htl exhibits liilrn'tliiced In evi
dence upon such hearing In cntmectlnn
with such testimony, without n calling
such witness.
"I further believe that the ruto of
res ndjudlcnta, which Is nppllcnhle to
practically all other Judicial proceed
ings, ought to be niacin applicable to
proceedings by habeas corpus and cer
tiorari to Inquire Into the cause of de
tention. This result could properly be

Winter Automobile Exhibit
Latest Cars Created by
48 Master Builders
Commencing Jan. 6th, we will hold this city's first Winter Automobile Exhibit. Its advan
tage is that you have an opportunity to take plenty of time in selecting an automobile.
Hurried decisions usually are costly.
On exhibition are the latest cars of 48 master builders. These men had a hand in the
building of over 200,000 automobiles of 97 well-known makes. They are the picked
engineers from England, Germany, France, Italy, America, Belgium, Austria and Hungary.
Do not overlook this opportunity for a careful scrutiny of these latest ideas in motor
car design.
Come see the Winter Automobile Exhibit at once.
THESE picked experts, constructing their latest models, worked under the direction of Howard E. Coffin,
America's foremost designer. He himself had built six famous cars, more than any other engineer, and never
created a failure. Working together, these men have built their greatest cars. The wonderful 4 and 6-cylinder
automobiles they created compositely are the masterpieces of the largest engineering board in the automobile,
industry.

Howard E. Coffin himself built the first successful four-cylinder car. He
has always led in four-cylinder construction. Yet even he could not have con
ceived as remarkable cars as has this great body of experts, combining their
ideas.
In the New HUDSON "37" their 4-cylinder car they have built a rim
pie automobile, one with several hundred fewer parts than others in its class.
Simplicity is the keynote to low up-keep. You have noted this if you have ever
owned a car of complicated design.
In any automobile the design of which is not well balanced, rods, wires
and supports are necessary. These things need attention and constant adjust
ment. That takes repairmen's time. It costs money. But with the simple
car you have none of these things to look after, for rods, wires and supports are
not essential.
A Dust-Proof Car
These engineers have built an automobile that is fortified against the most
ruinous element a motor car must face dust.
Dust, dirt and grit work their way in through the valves into the motor
and bearings and shorten the fife of the motor the very heart of an automobile.
But these engineers have enclosed the valves, valve mechanism and all
moving parts, making them impregnable to the ruin of dust, dirt and grit.
They have built a dust-proof car.
Electrically Self-Cranking
electric Lighted
There is nothing in the opera
tion of the car that cannot be
accomplished from the driver's
seat. You press a button to crank
the engine. The electric Delco self
cranking system has an electric
motor, the transmission of which
meshes with the cogs of the
HUDSON'S flywheel. Thus when
you press the button and start the
electric motor, it automatically
turns the fly wheel and hence
revolves the gasiufne motor,
accomplishing the same result as
you get by cranking at the front
of the car. "
In addition, when the engine is running, it generates electric current which
is stored in a battery to be used for lighting at night and in starting the car.
Three buttons on the dash control the head, tail, side and dash lights.
The Most Beautiful 1913 Car

bought $5,000 and $6,000 cars are prdud to own.
In comfort the HUDSON is supreme. Its 12-inch Turkish type nphohtery,
orer three-quarter elliptic springs, makes the car so remarkably easy riding that
this fact,akne-has decided many sales in its favor.
The large, roomy tonneau and the ease of entering the car are other
features appreciated by the wise motorist.
