ARCHDEACON TIFFANY.
Lecture at Marquand Chapel Yesterda
Afternoon,

Lecture at Marquand Chapel Yesterday
Afternoon.
Archdeacon Tiffany of New York lee
tured before the divinity students in
Marquand chapel yesterday afternoon
on "Religious Teaching as Affected by
Natural and Social Environment" In
his lecture he discussed the relation Of
environment to the individual and it's
moral bearing on character; as to
whether 1t was deteriorating infu-
ence or uplifting. His conclusion was
that environment was not alone de-
cisive influence on character. He cited
as examples of this view the Georges,
who, although reared in royal families,
in the best environments, were far from
exemplary in their character. Environ
ment needs the inward germ of good In
the heart. Character and environment
react on each other
1t should be the object of the minis
ter and the church to make the envi-
ronments of men uplifting.
The second lecture will be given this
afternoon at 3 o'clock on the subject

LAKE sHoRE-cENTRAL DEAL.
Little Importance Ascribed to TIL


Little Importance Ascribed to the
Ellsworth Bills Failure to Pass.
New York, March 3.-Wall street to-
day was not disposed to believe the
story that hitch in the consolidation
of the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern with the New York Central
was likely to result, owing to the fact
that the Ellsworth bill, exempting
steam railroad corporations from the
stock corporation law, which limits the
issue of bonds, had been defeated in
the assembly. The point has been rails
ed that the Indebtedness of the New
York Central, not secured by a mort
gage, will exceed the capital stock or
the company, which is against the law.
In making the transfer of stock,
holders of Lake Shore stock are offered
5000 in collateral trust bonds of the
New York Central for $500 of their own
stock. The capital stock of the Lake
| tained by the Central for sos, 9S3, 600
The stock, and not a mortgage, Is the
security for the bonds. The capital
stock of the Central is 100000 900, SO
there would be remaining little over
million dollar limit for depts that
would be incurred. This is in case all
the Lake Shore stock is transferred.
Prominent bankers to-day expressed
| the opinion that, even though the Cen
| trail bonds were collateral trust bonds
there would be no blocking the con-
/ solidation, as the whole of the Central
bonds are not likely to be takon UP by
| the Lake Shore stockholders. There
have already been large transfers Of
stock made, but still there remains
large margin to secure the stockholders
of both companies OF the total capita
stock of the Lake Shore probably
three-quarters will be made over into
collateral trust bonds. This fact was
carefully considered by the directors
of the two companies when the scheme
| of consolidation was discussed, and i
is for this reason that the holders O.
the new bonds are not disposed to trea
as serious the talk of a hitch. Presi
dent Depew of the New York Contra
denies all rumors of a hitch, the com
pany having taken excellent legal ad
vice before entering into the arrange
ment.

Probate Court Judge oleaveland.

There was a hearing in the probate
court yesterday on the insolvent estate
of w. r. Francis, caterer on Chapel
street on the question as to whether
Francis himself should be employed in
the restaurant by Trustee Frank t.
Lee, and also on the appointment of
commissioners.
Attorney Goodhart represented Mrs.
Francis, and Judge Dow appeared as
counsel for the insolvent and trustee.
Mrs. Francis has sued for divorce and
alimony and yesterday Attorney Good
hart stated that the assignment had
been made to avoid paying the all
mony.
Judge Dow said that Attorney Good
harris remarks were unfounded and
added: ut is ridiculous how Mr.
Goodhart comes in here and tries to
bulldoze the court"
Attorney Goodhart demanded that
Judge Dow withdraw his statement,
whereupon the latter said he did net
mean anything offensive and that the
statement that the assignment was
made on account Of the divorce suit
was partly true, as Francis could not
get bond and had to do something
to release himself.
A few names were proposed for COM
missioners, to which one side or the
other objected, and finally w. K. Bush
and James Bishop We're appointed, 1t
was decided that Trustee Lee should
continue too employ Francis in the res

WISHES TO ABDICATE.
Queen Victoria is Anxious to Yield the
 Throne to Her Son.

Nsw York, Oct 22-The Mail and Express prints the following from it's Dcndon correspondents:
 Apparently well founded reports of grave importance with regard to Queen Victoria have reached me.
 The death of the queen of Denmark following so closely upon the assassi- nation of the empress of Austria. had a very depressing effect upon her maj osty. The fact thaE it was thought nec- essary to take mere rigorous precau- tions against a possible anarchist plot, as I cabled you two weeks ago, has also greatly distressed her. The effect has bEen cumulative.
 The result of all this, so my informa- ticn is, was that the queen sent for the prince of Wales, and again told him of her desire to yield the throne to him. She is said to have recounted all the reasons which urged her to this step with great force.
 His highnsss, however, was net con- vinced- In the first place, he assured his mother that he took as much pride in the great length Of her reign as any other Of her subjects, and that all his wishes were against ascending the thrcne during his mothers lifetime. Secondly, and what was Of far greater importance, he pointed cut to the que n the serious stata of affairs in France, and the possibility that the Fash-da incident might at any time cause a brcak in that country's relations with England Fer Great Britain to change rulers ncw, especially when 1t is known that the queens int=nse desire for peace has been one Of the stronges- factors in avoiding hcstilities on moIe than one occasion in recent years, might bring cn 9 war with France which would otherwise be avoided.
 Reluctantly the queen yielded for the time. She is still said to be seri- ously contemplating a renewal of the argument
 Yesterdays and today's deve opments in Paris, however, add such strength 10 the princes position that it is prob able VictcTia will give up her plan
