FRIENDS WANT HIM RETAINED.
st. PETERS Practitioners Petition in
Behalf of Father Sullivan.

The prospective removal of Father John
L. Sullivan. assistant pastor of St Pc
ter's Roman Catholic Church. has given
occasion for the members Of the parish
to enter a strong protest. Father Sulli-
van has not yet received orders trans
ferring him, tut orders have been issued
to Father Galland, the priest who will
succeed him, directing him to proceed TO
Washington. Father Sullivans orders are
expected to arrive any day.
The friends of Father Sullivan are
making strenuous efforts to have him re-
tanned as assistant pastor of st. Peter s.
A petition signed by large number OF
the members of the congregation was
presented 70 Father o Brien, pastor OF
st. Peters, Sunday night. Last night &
petition signed By the Knights OF st
John was also presented to the pastor
and tomorrow night delegation from the
Knights of Columbus will wait upon Fa-
Their O'Brien and present similar pcS-
ton. The petitioners assert that If the
applications to Father O'Brien do not
have the desired effect they will carry the
matter to the Cardinal.
Father Sullivan is young alau has been
a priest but two years. That time he has
spent as one of the two assistant pastors
of st. Peters. He is very popular with
the parishioners and the present crusade
In his favor is the result of the announce
ment that his transfer was expected IL
is believed that Father Sullivan Will be
transferred to Baltimore In some larger
parish.
Father Galland, who will succeed Fa-
Their Sullivan as assistant pastor OF ST.
Peters, Is a priest OF considerable expe-
rience. He was formerly connected with
Monsignor MartinelIi and later had
charge of a parish in Baltimore. where he
distinguished himself His health failing,
Father Galland took trip to Europe. he
returned recently.

NEW STEEL LETTER BOXES,
The Old Cast Iron Mail ReceptacIes
to he Abandoned.

Whatever may be the cost" says the
American Inventor" the Postofiice De-
partment accepts nothing which is not the
best. First class is the motto in all
equipments, and now the latest thing is
n steel letter box. II was not so long ago
that cities and towns were glad enough
to have n wooden letter box. Then the
department put up cast-iron boxes at the
corners. and later supplemented them at
important points by large sheet-iron
newspaper ,receptacles. The cast-iron
boxes were covered with admonitions not
to deface or break. on penalty Of heavy
fines. and, so the officials of the depart
ment say, very few were ever DESTROYED
1T seems now, however, that the cast
iron boxes are too clumsy, and not suffi-
GENTLY strong. Recently bids for boxes
tween the time of the advertising and the
opening Of the bids. which took place a
few days ago. the department learned of
the excellence Of steel boxes. On award
ing the contracts, all bids on cast-iron
boxes were thrown aside and now new
bids on steel ones Will be advertised for.
THE old cast-iron box is out of date
said Superintendent Machen, of the
Rural Free Delivery Department yester-
day. I'VE decided that IL was too heavy
and too bulky and thought that in view
Of the greater strength, the greater
iightneEs. and the greater beauty of the
steel box. we might just well make
the innovation with these new contracts.
The specifications of the new box are not
yet decided upon. IL win, however, be
much lighter. and though perhaps no less
expensive. will afford "A saving through

nents should be entrusted TO committee

cation of the house for Admiral Schley

that property in Cleveland Park would

that section. The prices asked are with
