WHITMAN FORFEITs BAIL.
Fails to Put In an Appearance ii
the New York Court.


the New York Court.
NEW YORK, May 29.-Alonzo ]. White
man, of Dansville, N. Y, and formerly
of Duluth who was held yesterday in
$500 cash bail on a charge of securing
$685. Is from the New Amsterdam hotel by
means Of worthless paper, failed to ap-
pear in police court today. Whiteman's
bail was forfeited.
When Whiteman was arraigned before
Magistrate Pool in the Jefferson market
police court yesterday the detectives who
made the arrest asked that he be re-
manded in their custody. Whiteman
protested loudly and vehemently, de-
manding that bail be fixed for him, and
Magistrate Pool consented, fixing the
bail at $500 and agreeing to accept cash
as security.
said Whiteman, when this man was an
nounced 81 was afraid of being robbed
by the police, so 1 thought 1 had better
hide the money!
Standing in front of the magistrate, he
pulled off his left shoe and produced a
500 BILL six $50 bills, and sixteen $40 bills
He put one $50 bill and one $40 bill back
into the shoe and handed the rest to the
magistrate, who ordered that bond be
drawn up at once. The detectives pro-
tested against the unusual procedure, but
in vain.
There was nothing in Whiteman's ap-
pearance to indicate the many strange
ups and downs that he has experienced
He was smartly, although anonymously,
dressed in a white fedora hat, unim-
peachable frock coat, light and carefully
creased trousers, brown shoes and gloves.

MAY FIGHT FOR BOAT.
to Dislodge Capt. Marks
May Cause BIOOdshed

Way O8uSe BlOOOSncU
VALLEYFIELD, Que, May 29.-Today
the provincial cabinet will decide upon
what action is to be taken to forcibly dis
lodge Capt. Marks, of the Helvetia. What
ever action is taken will be in response 20
the demand of ]. w. Masten, lawyer,
from Cleveland O., who represents John
son, the owner of the boat, and the Lake
Carriers association, to which all the
boat owners belong.
The people here in Valleyfeld, as we'll
as those in Montreal, do not see why the
provincial government should Interfere
in an entirely personal matter between
Johnson and the captain. The pressure
brought to bear is very strong, however,
and there are millions behind Lawyer
Masten. On behalf of his clients he has
offered to put up bonds guaranteeing the
government against losses in case of i
damage suit for false arrest.
1t is the intention to send squad of
provincial policemen, well armed, on a
tug from Coteau at night, If a warrant IS
issued, and, steaming across the st. Law
renee, to attack the boat from the water
side.
An attempt from land would surely re-
suit in bloodshed, the youth of Valley
field is bound that Marks shall not be
taken, and it has been arranged that the
ships bell is to be rung in case of danger.

WASHINGTON, May 29-An authorita-
tive denial was given today to the state
ment set af1oat yesterday that Archbishop
heane was about to return from Rome to
resume his old post as rector of the
catholic university, Mgr Conaty, the
present rector, retiring to become bishop
Of Columbus. Mgr. Conaty today au-
thorized the following statement:
AT the meeting of the board of trus-
tees of the Catholic university held last
Thursday, resolution was passed by
the trustees that the Most Rev. Arch.
bishop Keane be asked to devote a year
or more of his time to the completion of
the endowment of the university so that
by the end of the century 1t may be fully
endowed. Archbishop Keane, with that
devotion he has shown to the interests
or the university since the beginning Of
It's work, suggested to the rector and
trustees that the necessary permission
be obtained from the holy see This was
secured, and Archbishop Keane will ar
United States, to begin work in GOOD
GRAFTON with the rector and trustees.
The finances of the university were new
er In better condition than at present
The endowments received during the
present year give the hope that the nee
essary endowments will be supplied by
the FRIENDS of the university. 1t is the
earnest desire Of the rector that with
the new century 1t may be possible to
show the holy father that the university
SO dear to him Is in condition to do still
greater work in the cause of Catholic
higher education for both clergy and
laity of the United States"

BOXING IN CHURCH.
The Bouts Held with the Sanction
of the Rector.


of the Rector.
NEW YORK, May 29.-The idea of spe-
cial features to attract young people to
church in several places, went a step
farther Saturday in the Protestant Epis-
copal Pro-Cathedral at 100 Stanton street.
of which the Rev. DR.. Charles Briggs is
to have charge.
Boxing matches and q wrestling bout
were introduced with the approval of the
authorities of the pro-cathedral and I'M
der the eye OF tn Rev. Mr.. Paddock, the
vicar, who seemed to enjoy them The
contests were held in the basement for
the Young Mems club one of the many
organizations Of the pro-cathedral. There
was a smoker, music and recitations.
Then a ring was impromised
At the opening kid" Rowling, of Buff
falo, and Kid Floss, of Avenue A, box
ed three tame rounds, and draw was
the decision The boys carried out the
customs Of the ringside, and vociferous
cheers, Kisses and catcalls filed the large
room.
Then came the real event Of the even
ing. Fellows" said Announcer Gam
bert, 81 now introduce to you with great
pleasure Dick Wunderlick, ex-champion
welterweight, and Phil Kelly, the coming
welterweight. They will box three
rounds, and in the last introduce their
original Knockout, which has been
initiated by many. but successfully
copied by none" Three strictly profess
sional rounds followed, and In the last
round Kelly delivered the realistic
knockout" blow.
The wrestling matchawas between Mike
thinner and George Burke the instruc-
tor of the gymnasium attached to the
church.
The Rev. Mr. Paddock said that doubt
less many people would not approve of
such amusements in such a place, but
he said the aim was to hold the young
mems interest and keep them off the
street.

Large Northwest receipts heavy ship

prominent authority that the winter
wheat area had been greatly reduced
since May. owing. to damage by flies,
coupled with sensational claims of dam
age from private sources, brought about
the change in sentiment Buying orders
from the Southwest poured into the pit
