ST. Paul dispatch. 5: Archbishop Ire
land has issued a letter announcing that
hereafter in the Catholic parochlal

tuition being considered an obstacle to
the growth of these schools. The priests
are authorized to defray the expenses of
the schools from the regular parish re-
ceipts or any extraordinary measures
which their judgment may commend.
The letter closes with an appeal to Cath
Ole parents to support these schools and
send their children to them.

Death kuell.
COLUMBIA, s. c., Sept. S.-The dis
closures III connection with the admin
istration of the dispensary law in this
state have created the most intense in
terest, coming as they do on the eve of
:he second election for United States
senatorship. The facts evidently were
brought to the surface by the bitterness
of the fight between Judge Earle and
Governor Evans for senatorial honors.
Both Tillmanites and conservatives
freely admit the public charges, and
admission of corruption means the
doom of the present ~dispensary system.
The charges and counter-charges are
between Governor Evans on one side
and Superintendent Nixon. in control
of the administration of the ~dispensary
law in South Carolina, ON the other.
The son of the latter acknowledges
having received money from whisky
people, but exonerates his father, who
denies all guilt. Governor Evans is
accused of failing to give an itemized
account of a charge against the dispen-
sary law of $50 for a trip to Washing.

JEALOUSY OF R. ]. TRUMBULL
Leads TO an Effort to Gust the. Regis.
trar
Insinuations Of Stealing and Mismanage-
ment Are Regarded as Utterly
Lacking a Foundation

Associated Press Special Wire
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.-THE Pres
byterian synod held a lively session to-
day. An attempt was made to remove
r. ]. Trumbull as registrar of the San
Anselmo seminary. Bitter words were
spoken, but Trumbull made a personal
plea and his words had enough weight
to carry the matter over until Monday.
The matter was brought up by the read
ing of resolution instructing the
boards Of trustees and directors that
they appoint a registrar whose duty 1t
would be to go about the country and
induce students to join the theological
ranks and to take full charge of the
finances. Further than all this, he
must be a minister. Rev. DR.. Noble of
San Rafael denounced the resolution as
an attempt to oust r. J.Trumbull, who
for twenty-five years had devoted his
energies to the seminary. DR.. Noble
said: II am astonished that the breth-
rem should be so jealous Of the meager
compensation that has been given in
the last few years to r. j. Trumbull, the
man who for years has put forth his
best endeavors In the work. wi|l the
snod to understand that this is a direct
attack upon him. The Office of registrar
is sought to be made eligible to a min
lister onl to cut off any possibility Of his
appointment"
Rev. DIR. Dinsmore of San Jose spoke
In favor of the resolution. He said that
$4,000 debt with 100000 assets was
preposterous, and he didn't believe
anybody had been stealing" He did not
want to speak on this subject, he in
formed the synod, but admitted that he
had been checking his opinion for two
years. Then turning his attention to
DR.. Noble, of whose church Trumbull
know any man-an elder or his own
son-and would ont defend them against
injudicious management. He asserted
that something was wrong when seven
or eight students had to be turned away
this year, statement which later
brought storm of inquiry and.a failure
to find out that 1t was fact. Dinsmore
tried to get the question sent back to the
committee, but that failed.
Rev. Mr.. Ferrand's turn came next and
he said in suppressed tones: Il rise in
a Christian spirit to repudiate the impu-
tations cast upon the committee by Mr..
Noble. 7 excuse him on the ground that
they are not worthy Of his better self"
He asserted that the committee did not
question the integrity of Mr.. Trumbull,
but thought that change would be
beneficial, and the churches did not
know anything about the place except
that there We're fine buildings on beau
tiful site, and then he told the story of
the seveno eight students.
Mr.. Trumbull hen told of his labors.
