GREENHALGE INAUGURATED.
Sworn In as Governor of Massa chu-
sets for His Third Term.

BOSTON, Mass, Jan. 2.-The Inaugural
ton Of Frederick IT. Greenhalge as Gov
ernor of Massachusetts, for the third time,
and Of Roger Wolcott as Lieutenant Gov
ernor, for the fourth term. took place in
the presence OF both branches OF the Legis-
lature. assembled in joint convention, In the
hall of the House OF Representatives to-
day.
Governor Greenhalge's inaugural address
for the most part treats Of State matters,
but towards its close 1t contains the follow
ing on citizenship and suffrage: There are
various suggestions as TO the mode of i'm
proving the quality OF citizenship, among
them the following:
"First-Greater care should be exercised
in the administration of naturalization
laws, so far as our State courts are con-
cerned.
"Second--A probationary period OF resi-
dence after naturalization might be pre-
scribed by constitutional amendment
.-Third-While there may be a division
OF opinion as to disfranchising for felony,
as is done in some States. II seems clear
that persons undergoing sentence in penal
institutions should not be permitted to vote.
1.-The. decisive vote on woman suffrage at
the recent State election would seem 10
show that public opinion will not for some
change I'm the established system OF suf-
frage The pubic mind appears 10 be grow
ing more and more in favor OF biennial
elections, and there is no good reason why
the question should not be submitted to the
people"

PITTsBURG'S TURN.
Pennsylvania "Lexow" Committee
Investigating Smoky City Affairs.

PITTSBURG Jan. 2.-The legislative
committee. appointed to investigate munich
pal affairs arrived in the city from Phila-
delphia this morning and began the Lex
owing of this city at o'clock this after
noon. The committee began by calling Con-
troller Gourley to the stand. Mr.. Gourley.
went into brief description OF the meth
DDS in vogue for the election of heads of
departments. They were entirely subject 10
councils elected by the outgoing body and
the Mayor has, practically, no power. not
even to advise them in their line OF duty.
He thought the departments had consider
able political influence. Heads OF depart
ments should be elected by the people or
appointed by the Mayor. AS an instance OF
the impotency Of the Mayor, he cited the
case when he himself was Mayor and issued
an order, at the request OF many citizens,
TO close the disorderly houses. II was coun-
termanded and never accomplished. As a
reason for this, the chief of the Department
of Public Safety, Joseph Brown. the pres
ent incumbent, said that he thought his
plan of regulation was better than oblt-
Grafton. As TO gambling and Illegal liquor
selling. Mr.. Gourley thought the city freer
of these evils now than ever before, and
gave Chief Brown the credit for their sup
preston. Municipal contracts. he said, were,
as rule, given to the lowest bidders, but
not always. Contracts often go 10 the same
people-Booth and Flynn, of this city, get
a larger percentage OF the paving work.
The director prepares the specifications for
work done under his special department.
Gourley said arc lamps in Pittsburg cost
$96 each; in Allegheny, SEQ each, but Allie
gheny had its own plant. In this city there
was only one bid for electric lighting and
the contract was let four years ahead.

TALMAGE CAUSES TROUBLE.
He Wants to Preach Twice ON Sun
days, but Rev. Allen Objects.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "A disagreement
has arisen in the First Presbyterian Church
of Washington, between the Rev. T. De-
Witt Talmage and the assistant pastor. Rev.
Adolos Allen, over which a special meeting
of the washington Presbytery will be
called When DIR. Talmage came TO the
church recently, 1t was arranged that he
should preach Sunday evenings. while DR..

pastor. should alternate in the pulpit SUM-
day mornings with Mr.. Allen, the assistant
pastor. The church has been crowded on
Sunday evenings since DR.. Talmage began
to preach and there is demand that he
should hold the pulpit twice on Sundays.
OFFERS have also come from other churches
for DIR. Talmage's services on Sunday morn
inos He has announced to the elders that
he desires to preach twice each Sunday;
that he Is able to and that the pressure on
him seems a providential call. The elders
have the same opinion DIR. Allen, however,
stands on his rights. which are defined by

clines TO Yield the pulpit. Consequently the

AN ALDERMAN'S TALE
MIR. LIGHT SAYS TOM JOHNSON TRIED
TO BUY HIS VOTE.
The Street-Car Magnate, He Alleges,
offered Loan Of $6,OOO-Incident
of the Franchise LegisIation.

PITTSBURG, Jan. 2.-The Detroit corre-
spondent of the Dispatch says: The ru-
nors Of queer dealing in the obtain
ing OF Tom Johnson's franchise for
his street railway became more pro-
nounced to-day, when Alderman Frank
j. LIGHT, everywhere regarded as an
honest man. made an open statement in the
presence of several people that he had been
offered $1,000 in cash, and Tom l.. Johnson
had volunteered to loan him $1,000, without
any written security or interest. Alderman
LIGHT said he did not want to expose the
matter unless he was forced to do so, but
he had decided that 1t was his duty to re-
late the circumstances to the authorities
before the final vote Tuesday. LIGHTS word
is as good as his bond. and he will go be-
fore the grand jury this week and relate
the same story that he now tells. 1t was
known that LIGHT was in need Of S, 800 at
once. by reason of being squeezed in a real
estate transaction. LIGHT tells the rest of
the story as follows:
Last Thursday an alderman, whose name
will give to the grand jury, tried to inter-
est me in a cemetery scheme, to which he
said the Citizens railroad would build a
line, and the next day a real estate man
offered me $1,000 in cash and 5000 Of this
cemetery stock If would try to get John
son to put spur track in this cemetery
Much as / needed the money / refused it.
This same real estate man wanted me to
see Johnson. Tuesday Tom Johnson came
into my store when I was out. Leaving
there. he, overlook me on my way. down
town, and asked me to step into his car
riage, which 1 did. / went into the Ca
dilac with him, into a room where there
were other people. and Johnson took me
into one OF the smaller rooms and closed
the door and we were alone. He pleaded
for my vote and said:
I've got to have your vote. II there is
anything wanted let me know
'I replied: Mr.. Johnson, / want it un-
derstood that l am not for sale; that not
every man has his price. and vet that
need money as bad as any man in De-
troit.' Johnson replied: 'If You want any
assistance-if you need $500 or anything Of
that kind. 1 will hep y,u out and you can
pay II back at any time without the scratch
OF pen. / don't want any paper l told
him that wouldn't sell CT my honor and
he replied: Then you can't help me out?
Over the long-dstance telephone Tom
Johnson admitted taking Lichl TO a private
room and soliciting his vote, but says
money was not mentioned.

DETROIT, Jan. 2.-Mayor Pingree to-day
showed his hand in a new plan to require
the Citizens Street-railway Company to
grant universal transfers on eight-for-a-
quarter tickets. The Mayor had petitioned
the Circuit Court a week ago to- compel
the company to resume sale Of the six-for-
a-quarter tickets, with transfer privileges,
which the company voluntarily sold last
summer. but which were discontinued be-
cause the city government had refused TO
grant extensions or franchises and other
favors TO the company. To-day this peti-
ton was amended so as to require the Cit
izens' company to furnish transfers with
the eght-for-a-quarter tickets, which latter
are being sold by the company temporarily

company into granting what would be un-

ordinance to the same effect.
