Walter Robinson found himself mere
or less at a less when beaten and robbed
by his been companions, but he didn't
mind that se much as tbe embarrassins

they bribed him net te press the charge.
Walter had their $0.50, and they had
his premise, but hew was he te, explain
that te tli a Judge?

Edward T. Bartlctt, president of the
Sixty-ninth street Association, in com
menting en the movement te curtail the
action of Yerkes, said:
"Yerkes is n monnce te Millliourne,
nnd haa virtually placed a padlock en

Iped development of places nleng the
D.IKC, rcinraea real rstate development
and interfered cerleusly with business
general) .
"People ere staying nway from the
section en account of Yerkes' methods.
"There will be intcrcatitia develei)-
ments ut today's meeting nnd home
surprises. Recently the Stenclnmni
residents took steps In order that the;
mlghi , be released from control of Up
Per Oarbr Tewnshln. This Im li.sl m.e
of the results of the methods of Yerkes."
Peter Gray, president or the Brook Broek
