For many years fight for and
against the Sunday opening of picture
galleries in London has been waged in
that city. The fight was won in the
Common Council by the liberal ele-
ment several weeks ago, but only by
the casting vote Of the president. Two
Sundays since the Guildhall art gallery
was open for the first time. The event
was big success, and the results en-
tirely disproved the unpleasant predic-
tons of the Sabbatarians. Two thous-
and three hundred and sixty-nine peo-
pie visited the gallery during the three
hours it was open.

REV. MADISON C. PETERS.
His Lecture, Islands of the Public
Schools (" Delivered Last Night.

Rev. Madison e. Peters kept nearly a
thousand people in state OF either laugh
ter or applause for an hour and half az
Infantry Hall last evening.
The announcement of his subject,
GLANDS off the Public School," was what
drew out the crowd, composed mostly of
the middle class people to whom
perhaps the word America means
more than to any others,
and the speakers forcible way of putting
things was what made the men cheer and
old ladies almost fall from their seats in
applauding.
He was introduced by the Rev. Nj. Buck
as Madison G.. Peters, ID. d., of Brooklyn.
The gentleman thus presented first
announced that he was neither
a ID. ID. nor did he come from Brooklyn.
But he was an American, and as an Amer
lean, not as Protestant, was he before
Providence audience to talk
about the public school system
and the dangers which threaten it..
His address was not TRADE against Catbo-
licism as opposed to Protestanism, for
the latter doctrine was scarcely men
TONED, and jtedid not oppose the Roman
doctrine as religion, but the
theme was closely adhered to all through
and only ass the Catholic church would
substitute its parochial for the public
schools, and attempt TO control the
people education, was il denounced. We
must, Mr.. Peters said, maintain this sys-
tenn, these schools from which the child
rem OF all nationalities come with one
common tradition and many common as
sociations, and with an education. There
are 100000 of these children in our
schools today, and We are the only nation
on earth that expends more for school
system than for a standing army. The
Pope does not want this TO be SO. His
great power lies in the ignorance of his
subjects, and he breads that power which is
knowledge. The Catholics hate education
because they hate history and we can not
blame them for not wanting their record
known. The Roman church believes in the
education of the few; on that depends
its power. We believe in the education OF
everybody and that is one of the princi-
Piles of patriotic America. We
must make our demands upon
Catholics to cease their operations
against this great system, not as Protes-
tants. for that would be narrow and un-
American, but as patriots taking the line
OF frcemen and without the animosity of
bigotry.
During the address Mr.. Peters was in
terupted by little girl, draped in the
Stars and Stripes, who went ON tho plat
form and presented him with bunch OF
flowers Sin behalf OF the public school
children of Providence according to the
card which accompanied the flowers.

: II IS ABSOLUTE ROT. !"
Thus Receiver Perry Denies
Alleged New Haven Deal.
THE STORY AN INSULT TO BOARD.
The New England Road Has Not En-
tered into an Alliance OF Any Sort or
Kind with the Consolidated Boston
journal Story " Pure Rot" He Says.

Mr.. Marsden j. Perry, receiver for the
New York a. New England Railroad
Company, and one OF the board
OF directors elected yesterday
at the Boston meeting, very emphatically
denies the report that there Is any
understanding between the New Haven
people and the New England directors.
He not only denies the truth OF the
assertion, but pronounces it as an
insult to some OF the wealthiest and oldest
families OF Boston who are represented
on the new board, especially the state
ments in the Boston Journal of today
to the effect that the Consolidated people
have succeeded in taking control OF the
other road in secrecy and under
the guise OF harmony, and that their
success has been contributed to by
the ready concessions made by the
new directors of the New England.
In its statement OF the alleged facts in
the case, the Boston Joarnal gives the fol-
lowing:
"The New Haven has been aroused by
the general public sentiment against its
attempt to absorb the New
England. 1t sees that such a move
ment would be q great blunder. 1t cam
New York & New England run as a com
petitive independent line. The clever men
behind the great Consolidated have at last
hit upon perfectly safe middle course.
"The New England is to be run as an in
dependent line in the closest bar
mony with the New Haven. Then,
in case the arrangement proves
satisfactory the Old Colony lease can
be unloaded at any time. In other words
the New Haven becomes at last the
master OF the transportation situa-
ton In the whole OF Southern New
England. The best part of the feature
TO the Connecticut roid is that the combin-
tion has been made without a fight, and
in manner that will not arouse the pub
lie dislike. The cry is harmony"
And that is what Mr.. Perry has desig-
mated as "mere rot.''
The new directors of the New York Il
New England Railroad Company are:
Gordon Abbott, &. +. Adams, I'd; A. S.
Bigelow, f. G, Lowell, A. c. Tower, s. NJ.
Weld, John Kean, Jr., J. G.. Moore. L. c.
Platt, Samuel Thomas, b. +. Tracey, j. w.
Doane, Spencer Erwin, j. Il. Sinnot, Ar
thur Brock, Nj. ]. Perry, b. f. Vaughan,
ID. s. Plume and Arthur Sewall.
Mr.. Perry has the greatest faith in the
the future of the road, believing that it
will soon be placed upon firm financial
basis. The statement was made
at the meeting yesterday that it would
take about 5000, 900 TO build up the road
but there Is every reason to believe that
that this Will be easily obtained.

CANADIAN LEADERS, UTTERANcE
Very Significant as Indicating Eng
lands Position on Sealing Question
There Is No Modus Vivendf and Paris
Tribunals Decision Is imperative.
By The Associated Press.

OTTAWA. Ont, March 22.-Sir Richard
Cartright. in the House of Commons last
evening, called the attention of the
Government to statement in The
American Press TO the effect that
the American government had sent out a
squadron TO protect the seals going north
TO the breeding grounds in the
Behring sea and that it was the intention
of these cruisers to deal with any one
trespassing against the regulations of the
Paris tribunal. What he wanted to know
was IL the regulations were now binding
and in force. Sir John Thompson
in reply said that the regulations
of the Paris tribunal had no force or
validity upon British subjects until
statutory enactment had been passed
by Great Britain. He did not be-
lieve that an American squadron had been
sent TO enforce the regulations OF the
Paris tribunal. II any csuisers had been
dispatched they were no doubt for the
purpose of seeing that American sealers
conformed to such laws as were
passed in Congress, or are about to be
passed by Congress. Concluding, Sir
John said that the modus vivendiwas not
now in force.
