New York, needless to say, js just as eager to see the Prince as the Prince is to seo us, for all over the world he !s | known as “a regular feller.” ‘The formal functions prepared for the Prince's entertainment have been completed. In a general way, Tue! day will be devoted to the welcome; Wednesday he will go on a general sightseeing tour, with many features, such as visiting the Horse Show, Stock Exchange and the: conferring of honors; Thursday he will go to West Point, and Friday, after he has been entertained by the Piping Rock Club, he will be host to 1,000 children on H. M. S. Renown. Saturday he will not leave the ship, according to present arrangements. The revised programme shows few minor changer. At 10 o'clock to-morrow morning, the Mayor’s Committee on the Recep- tion of Distinguished Visitors will leave the Battery on the police boat Patrol for Jersey City to greet there the Prince, who will arrive on a spe- cial train from Washington at 10,30. On this committee will be Grover A. Whalen, Major Gen, Bullard, Major Gen, Shanks, Major Gen, O’Ryan, Henry P. Davison, Rear Admiral Glennon and Henry Clews. The Prince's party and the commit- tee will embark on the royal barge, now on the boatdeck of the British cruiser Renown, in the Hudson River, At Pier A, Battery, the party will transfer to limousines for the City Hall, In the Aldermanic Chamber the Prince will hear addresses of welcome by Mayor Hylan for the city and by Secretary Hugo for the State. He will read his replies. The first New York sightseeing ob- jective will be Grant’s Tomb. From there the motor cars will turn back on Riverside Drive to 86th Street. ‘The party will transfer to the royal barge from the float of the Columbia Yacht Club and go to the Renown, on which the Prince will live while here. Before starting for the Renown tho Prince will review at the water front ® company of Scotch Scouts who fought in the war, Luncheon will be at 2.10 on the Renown, At 3%, the Prince will re- ceive official visitors of the Nation, State, city and British Embassy, At 3.15 he will meet a delegation of the Interracial Council, and fifteen min- utes later will receive from Bishop Burch a Bible, the gift of the New York Bible Society, which made a similar present to King Edward VII. when he was Prince of Wales and in New York, The Bible presentation is an addi- tional event of the day’s programme. The Prince of Wales crest is inscribed on the front cover of the volume in gold, and from the same die used to make a similar inscription on the Bible given his grandfather, A medal will be presented to the regal visitor by the Numismatic So- ciety. From then until 6 o'clock the Prince will rest in the sumptuously fitted lounging room on the after boat deck.

What | programme? Gov chase yourself with your old grogramme and your special train! I know something. Here I | stay!” So, dear young ladies, there is no telling. Who knows? Stranger things have happened than that Edward Al- bert Christian Andrew Patrick David should fall desperately in love with Mazio Moofletums, the daughter of 4 rich but honest Harlem protiteer, When His Royal Highness arrives at the Battery from Jersey City nortly before noon to-morrow there'll be more noise than this end of Man- hattan has known since German gen- tlemen stopped blowing up nearby Jersey. ‘The Prince will be with us until the good ship Renown, now off 86th Street in the Hudson, sails at 2 o'clock on Saturday for Halifax. As closely as possible, Prince Edward has been following along the trail made fifty-nine years ago by that popular gentleman and good sport, his grandfather, But Fifth Avenue around 23d Street has changed a lot in two generations— there isn't a six-story marble-front Fifth Avenue Hotel any more (with the only “lift” in town), and the city’s guest will go to the Renown every night to get such sleep as may be coming to him, The indications are that it will be precious little, The Mayor's Committee has made up the following programme: WEDNESDAY, NOY. 19. 10.4.

' QUERIES OF JURORS As “Regular Fellow’’ To-Morrow SULLY, SAY NIECES OF HRSHFEL “Lot of Old Men,” Declares One Sister After Testifying About Catskill Trip. Two very animated and smewhat indignant young women, nieces of Commissioner of Accounts David Hirshfield. did something to the Ex- traordinary Grand Jury to-day, but what it was that they did is dimcult to say—since there is no statement from the Grand Jury. There are statements, however, from the young women themselves, and the gist of it seems to be that, according to them, they tamed that Grand Jury. Miss Theresa Grant, No, 824 West Sist Street, a public school teacher, and her aister, Hattie, were the wit- nesses, summoned after their Uncle David had refused to sign a waiver of immunity last week, His nieces were questioned separately and re- peatedly. Assistant District Attor- ney Smith said the subject of the inquiry was an automobile trip taken last September in an automobile owned by the city. He added that the Grand Jury wanted to know whether the hotel bills and other ex- penses of the trip to the Catskills, had een paid by the city, The younger of the sisters, Miss Hattle, was the first to enter the Grand Jury room, and she came out in a few minutes. “Why, Theresa,” she said, laughing, “they're just a lot of old men asking silly questions. I used to wonder what they did with the inmates of old men's homes, but now I know. They put them in grand juries." ‘Then Miss Theresa was called, and when she left the Grand Jury room said to her sister: “[ told them “we were at Arverne on Labor Day and not in the Cats- kills and they said I led! A fine bunch of men they are!” Turning to the reporte: “They told me my sister had testi- fied that we were in the Catskills on that day. Their language was in- sulting, but they got ‘k as good as they gave. The forenian dramatically cautioned me not to perjure myself. He even threatened me with contempt of court proceedings, They asked me if my uncle had coached me on what to say. And they told me not to be impertinent. It was just like a third degree. I never saw a real one before —but it was like the movies. Miss Hattie was called in again and remained five minutes, Then she came out and Miss Theresa went in, Then it was Mise Theresa out and Miss Hattie in. Miss Hattle finally said to her sister: “They're very polite now . Let's go home." Before they went home they gave out a statement, written by Miss Theresa, It said in part: “It ig disgraceful to summon my sister and myself here to parade us in the newspapers just because we accompanied our uncle on a business trip. If these Grand Jurors have wives and daughters 1 hope some day they will have the same experience, We did go to Kingston (in the Cat- skills) last July and stopped at the Mountain House, Our uncle asked for two separate bills. I know that the Interboro and B. R. T. owners, stock jobbers, want to get rid of Mayor Hylan because he is too hon- est, but why pick on us?” Commissioner Hirschfield was be- fore the Grand Jury for twenty minutes, “Nothing to say,” he said as he came out. normal youth of twenty-five, one is most tempted to ask what he is unning for.” Most young men of his age would ike a day or a night off once in @ while, An evening with the “Follies,” maybe; a quiet ses- sion of the national game; an auto- mobile spin or a quiet saunter “on his own"; and they do say—on the other side—that if the Prince of Wales had been able to choose his lot in life he would have chosen any- thing rather than to be a Royal Personage. The Prince is expected to visit the Iforse Show Wednesday about 2% o'clock and a special programme has been aranged in his honor. When the yeni ise Lx HE EVENING WORLD, MONDAY,\ NOVEMBER 17, 1919.

Miss Mary Emma Wolfe, daughter of the late Christopher Wolfe, many years a momber of the Cashion- able Tuxedo colony, was carried to. Part 8 of Supreme ‘Court to-day on a stretcher from her apartment at the Hotel Wentnworth, to give her testi- mony in her suit for $60,000 against the Town Taxicab Company for per- sonal injuries, Miss Wolfe is a niece of Mru George F, Baker jr, daughter-in-law of the late George F. Baker, the financier, and was related to Miss Catherine Wolfe, the donor of the Wolfe gallery at the Metropolitan Art Museum. Miss Wolfe alleges that while rid- for ing in one of the Town Company's taxleabs, Dec. 21, 1916, she was ren- dered a permanent invalid when the cab struck a hole in the street and threw her about violently, causing her to strike her head. Ever since, she alleges, she has been confined to her bed in a darkened room dnd has to be transported in an invalid’s chair, She alleges she has spent during three years $15,726 for doctor's bills and still owes them $3, The defense contends that in 1902 Miss Wolfe was thrown frem a horse at Tuxedo Park, and that she has been an invalid since and will base its case upon a condition of hysteria fol- lowing the riding accident.
