DOES NOT FEAR IMPERIALISM
DIR. Abbott Says 1t Would Re CONymrdIy
to Leave FiIipinOs to Their Fate.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Dr. Lyman Abbott
addressed joint meeting of the Post Grad
uate Club of Columbia and the Womans
Post Graduate Club of Columbia, in Bar
nard College Hall last night. Dr. Abbott
during his lecture made it clear TO his lis
teners that he thought it cowardice to de-
stroy the government of any country and
then sail away and leave the country to its
own resources. He expressed the opinion
that the United States should exercise
protectorate over its newly acquired terri
tory until the people have tesn educated to
condition where they are able to govern
themselves. lie would then leave it to them
to determine by suffrage whether they wish
to govern themselves or be governed by the
United States. He said further:
What is this country to do? | believe my
self that the late war was a righteous one.
l did not believe the same thing of our war
with Mexico, but after the conclusion of
that war l accepted conditions as they were
and believed with those who thought we
ought To accept the new conditions. How are
we TO accept the conditions now confronting
us? We can disavow the relations we find
ourselves in with Cuba and the Philippines.
We can sail aWy from Cuba and tile Phil
lpplnes and say: We have freed your lands
of the Spaniards: now do the oest you can
The golden rule is a good one. I believe

countries to their destiny, now that we lave

eminent for them. L think we might serd
Quay to Cuba and Croker to the

and perhaps we would thereby improve cur

eminent to act upon its traditions. 1t is al
most incredible that any intelligent person
should think that minister should think as
ministers thought in the sixteenth century.
1t is incredible to believe that any such
person would expect any politician to think
as politicians thought in the eighteenth cen

new conditions
Il have no fear of Imperialism. l think
we ought to exercise d protectorate over
Cuba and the Philippines. We ought to say
to the people that we will protect them

ity? We can show them that we can give
them better government than they had
We can DO just what we have been doing
We can improve their streets, establish

CHICAGO. Jan. 27.--The Chicago Young
Peoples Christian Temperance Union, which
has just formulated and sent out plan for
lifting the entire debt from the Womans
Temple and making it a memorial to Miss
Frances T. Willard, is bending all its ener-
gies to make a great demonstration at the
temple on Feb. II, the first anniversary of

plan, which is to divide the $50 900 necessary
to free the building from debt into $1,000
shares of $40 EACH is meeting with hearty
Endorsement and cooperation. 1t is ex-
pected that thousands of dollars will be

VERDICT PROMPTLY REACHED.
The court was in executive session for
little over an hour, and in this brief space
of time reached its conclusion, for it soon
became known when the doors were re-
opened that a verdict had been reached or,
in military parlance, the court-martal had
made its findings The fact was confirmed
by the announcement from the judge advo-
cate that the court had adjourned without
delay. II can be recalled only to correct a
fault in the proceedings, which is a rare
occurrence. OF the nature of the verdict
or findings nothing is known positively out
side of the members of the court who are
all under oath to keep the proceedings
secret The secrecy is maintained for all
time by the court, but there is nothing
to prevent a reviewing officer from making
the matter public, though it is also the
custom for them to refrain until the last
chapter has been written and the conclu-
sion Of the court is. ready to be officially
promulgated.
In the regular order the findings and pro-
ceedings must now be carefully gone over
by Judge Advocate Davis. He thought ii
was possible this afternoon to conclude his
task tomorrow or Monday. He will place
the papers in the hands of Judge Advocate
General Lieber, whose duty it will be to
make most careful examination of every
part Of the record and findings, with a view
TO the detection of any irregularities in the
forms. Presenting that he finds all of
these things are regular he will forward
the papers to the secretary Of war with his
Endorsement, if he sees fit to add one, and
the latter will act finally "by direction OF
the President according to the form of
practice adopted in Secretary Lamonts
time. 1t IS proper to state that it is pos
sJbie for the papers to pass through the
hands of General Miles at some stage in
the proceedings, he acting also in the capac-
lty OF a reviewing authority; but this
is not uniform practice, and there was
a notable exception in the Carter court

ST. AIMS PARoCHIAL SCHOOL.
Cornerstone Laid by Bishop Monaghan Ye,
terday Afternoon.

terday Afternoon.
The cornerstone of st. AIMS r. G.
Parochlal School at Shallcross avenue
and Union street was laid by Bishop
Monaghan Sunday afternoon. Prior
to the cornerstone laying, pontifical
vespers werc said in the church, the
sermon being preached by the bishop,
whose text was st. Matthew 20, 10:
Go ye, therefore, and teach all
nations, baptizing them in the name
OF the Father, and of the Son and of
the Holy Ghost. .
The bishop spoke of the commission
OF the apostles to teach, entrusted to
them by our Lord, and handed down
by them to their successors in the
church. 1t was by the teaching of the
apostles that the doctrines of Christ
were made known to the world, and
the church divinely established and
lllumined by the Spirit of Truth is the
teacher of oil nations and all times.
The period OF youth is the most i'm
nortant time for the work of teaching.
Then it is that the mind of the child
must be enlightened by divine truth
and the principles of Christianity must
be deeply implanted in its heart. Re-
ligion is sacred tie binding man to
his Creator. The mind of the child is
moro logical than we may imagine, and
II the entire week is given up to secular
knowledge and only few moments on
Sunday to tho study of religion, what
estimate can you expect him to make
OF the Importance of religious truth.
Hence the school has ever been re-
earded as an annex to the church, and
hence has she ever watched with
jealous eyes the education of her chill
dren. She knows we'll the truth of the
axiom: Give me the child and the
citizen will be mine.'
The bishop then dwelt at length on
the necessity of the parish school to
carry out the true Catholic idea of
Christian education. He said that it
entailed vast expenditure of money
and labor: it was source of great
care and anxiety to the pastors of souls !;
and in our present circumstances, a
constant expense to the people. But
the burden was one that we must bear
Willingly for the good of religion and
the welfare of the souls of our,children.
The bishop congratulated the clergy
and people of St. AIMS parish on the
erection of their parochial school, and
appealed to the people to come gener-
oaS'y W. wv o'u vi tiioiT pdSbOf III CdrTy-
ing out to completion the work under
taken on so grand scale.
After the benediction of the sacra-
ment, the clergy and congregation went
to the site of the new structure where
the cornerstone was blessed by the
bishop and was duly laid. A large
crowd was present including divisions
of the Ancient Order of Hibernians
and delegations from other societies.
In the cornerstone were placed some
coins of 1888 and paper bearing the
date of the laying of the stone, the
Donaghy, pastor, and Rev. Peter
Hughes, assistant pastor of st. AIMS
Church, President Mckinley, Vice.

CITY RAILWAY EXTENSION.

Application Made by the North side Inn
provemenr Company, But Not by Rail-
way Co.
The existence Of a snag in the move
ment for the extension of the tracks of
the Wilmington City Railway Co.
across the Washington street bridge
and out the Boulevard became apparent
at this mornings session of the Levy
Court. About two weeks ago, Robert
F. Fox, general manager of the railway
company, and Samuel II. Baynard and
William Lawton of the Northside I'm
provement Co. were before the court
to ask permission to lay tracks on
the bridge. In the absence Of a formal
application no action was taken but
tho understanding was that tho COM
pany would formally apply. and no
serious obstacle seemed to be in the
way Of the desired permission. But the
company has made no formal applica-
tion.
On Monday a communication was
received from the Northside Improve
ment Co. asking permission for the
railway company to lay tracks on the
bridge, adding that the improvement
would result in increased taxes to
be paid to tho county on northside
property. This communication was
filed, and resolution was offered to
grant permission to the railway COM
pany to lay the rails under certain con-
one of which was to keep tho
bridge floor in good condition between
the tracks and for two feet on each side
thereof, and another, was to pay an
undetermined amount per car per year.
Mr.. Gallagher moved that $40 be the
figure per car, the amount per year not
to be less than $50. But Mr.. White
thought the court was moving too
hastily and suggested no action for
the present.
Mr.. Gallagher explained that nothing
could be done until the railway com
pany and the court enter into a con-
tract. Finally he Withdrew his motion
as to the figures and tine resolution was
received and left with the Wilmington
hundred bridge committee with power
to act.
