Asserting that there was no basis whatever to testimony before the Transit Commission bus inquiry that {f an applicant bought a bus from the Imperial Omnibus Company for $8,000 he could have for any line a permit in the city, Ezra C. Bull, President of the Trackle Transportation Cor poration, revealed the fact that he himself had a permit to run a bus ne between the Grand Central and Pennsylvania Railroad terminals. The Imperial Omnibus Company owns the patent of a passenger auto bus of which the Trackless Trans- Portation Corporation is the sales agency, and Uieir joint offices are at No. 300 Madison Avenue. ‘The permit to run the bus line was Branted to Mr. Bull individually by Commissioner Whalen of the Depart- ment of Plant and Structures just be- fore the issuance of the sweeping In Junction by Justice Mullan of the Su- preme Court, who has allowed a stay. The line was started on Sept. 29. Mr, Bull explained that as the char- ter of the Trackless Transportation Corporation did not give it power to operate buses. the permit had to be taken out in his name. Mr. Bull has four buses operating between the terminals. The route ts via Madison Avenue and 824 and 834 Streets, It takes in not only the rall- road terminal area but the section tn which many large hotels and depart- ment stores are located, and is called the “Terminal Bus Service.” The former President of the Track- Jess Transportation Corporation was George R, Bidwell, once a noted Re- publican politician and Collector of the Port of New York under Prast- dent McKinley's Administration. Mr. Bidwell is still a-director and stock- holder and has an office in the com- pPany’s offices.

Apart from a city contract that we obtained on a low bid for fifteen buses for the city’s trackles: trolley on Staten Island, we have sold only two buses to other individ wals operating buses by permit New York City. One of these buses is on the Sth Street, the other on the Madison Street Ine. “We have spent a great deal of money and more than two years of actual time in developing the Imperial omnibus. Except the two instances mentioned, which we sold before we got our experience, we have refused to sell buses to individuals in New York City because of the uncertainty of receiv payment.

Women screamed and fainted and the New Jersey Avenue Police Court, Brooklyn, was thrown into an uproar when Isidor Botwintok, twenty; No. 591 Blake arraigned this morning on a charge of possessing cocaine, drew*an open pocket knife from his coat sleeve and slashed twice at his throat. “I want justice and intend to have it,” he screamed at Magistrate Louis H. Reynolds. Warrant Ofcers Avenue, John H. Whalen and Daniel Kelly disarmed the youth after a terrific struggle. They took him to the detention room and called Dr. Swanson of the Bradstreet Hos- pital. After it was found his injuries were slight he was sent to the Kings County Hospital Meantime, polico started an exami- nation of how the knife came into Botwinick’s possession. Unable to provide $500 ball, he had been held in the Raymond Street Jail since his arrest Oct. 16, when he was searched, After Botwinick's suicide attempt his mother, Mrs. Bella Botwinick, through Attorney Isidor Kallet, told Magistrate Reynolds she had put the vial in his pocket which caused his arrest. He had been released some time since from a Riker's Island in- stitution for narcotics, she said, and she wished to have him committed again, Just before he drew the knife Rot- winick declared he had been framed by Detect orge H. Bilaffer, Nar- cotic Squad officer who arrested him. He sald Bilaffer had allpped the cocaine Into his pocket. The detective denied this. He sald he had been watching for the youth some time. The New Jersey Avenue Court was crowded at the time of the slashing. SHOT SON-IN-LAW TO PROTECT WIFE, HE TELLS POLICE IIusband’s Attentions Wife’s Sister Started Row, Is Charge.
