TO LECTURE ON BUDDHISM.
An American Woman VIII Describe
Conditions in India

NEW YORK. Oct. 3.-Sister Sanghanut-
ia, a Buddhist nun, is coming to New
York soon to lecture on the condition of
the women of India and to interest the
women of America in their behalf The
sister Is an American woman, born in
Texas, and was the wife of Senior A
Desouza Canavarro, in the diplomatic
sGrvice of Portugal. The couple has three
sons and daughter.
In entering the sisterhood Sonora Cana
varro discarded her name and her home,
but renounced only her social duties and
not those of wife and mother. During
the prolonged absence of her husband in
the discharge of his official duties she
took up this work in the interest of wom-
en- and has worked in connection with the
Buddhi Society. principally in CeyIon, es-
tablshing schools and orphanages for
girls.
Sister Sanghanutta's plan is not to de-
nounce religions, but to let the Indian
people advance on the lines of their own
thought and to educate them through the
beauties of Buddhism. She means to con-
thu, this work, as she has begun it. by
cstaI fishing schools for women where
they may be taught the simple rules of
health cleanliness, morality, industry,
and seIf-dependeuce. A little money goes
such a long way in India that Sister
Sanghanutta believes she will be able to
obtain in America and in England enough
funds TO lift the women OF India out of
their present misery and degradation.

AGAINST FREQUENT PARDoNs.
The Protest of the District Bench of
Nebraska

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 3.-The district
bench of this State is voicing a protest
against the too general use of the par
doning power by more recent Governors
Of Nebraska. The parollng OF ex-Auditor
Of State Joseph BARLEY. embezzler; the
pardon Of Henry Bolin, cX-City Treasurer
Of Omaha. and similar examples of Glenn
ency have aroused fear in the courts
mind that retributory justice will be rob
bed Of its terrors The lead in the pro-
test has been taken by Judge Paul Jes-
sen, of Nebraska City. who has made the
following endorsement On a commitment:
'Cn account Of the character of this
crime II is respectfully requested of all
incoming Governors never TO pardon nor
commute the sentence of this man, Hall
Frampton."
The case OF Hall Frampton is partic-
ularly asgravatiHg one, the negro hav-

started looking To II mitigation Of the

PROMPTED By this contingency. II was

THE BANKRUPTCY LAW.
Credit Men Seeking to Learn the
Views of COrrespondcnts

NEW YORK. Oct. 3.-The National AS
sociation of Credit Men, in its effort to
secure proper amendment of the National
Banlsrutcy act, has issued the following
circular letter to all its members and
correspondents:
AN investigation of the wishes of the
business world touching the Bankruptcy
law. and the most effective means of
strengthening it through practical amend
ments is about TO be made. In this con-
nection, your attention IS called to the fol-
lowing propositions, which are borne out
by statistics and experience:
The Bankruptcy law of 1898 has: %
Put an end to chattel mortgage failures,
fake confessions Of Judgment. and, in gem
eral. to the old-tim race for the regis
ter's office; all now share alike. (2) Made
preferences. where creditors are VigiIant
rare, if not impossible 81 Committed
the administration of estate to trustees
chosen by the creditors rather than by
the failing debtor. ~ Increased divi-
dcnds, and cut down the expense of ad-
ministration to a minimum, (5.) Made. as
a rule, credit more secure, without con-
tracing it.
One of the principal purposes of the
Bankruptcy Law of 1898 was the discharge
of debtors. and thousands have been dis
charged; but the statistics of the Depart
ment of Justice show that from 90 to 80
per cent Of those discharged were debtors
who had failed during tho past two dec
Shts' anu Al AyilA "oli' "a "iivu Coulu any
thing have been collected had they not
been discharged. The time has now come
to put up the bars; this can only he done
by proper amendments to the law
Repeating 90 law at this time would
mean ret 20 the old system of State
admiris:~a n. There is no middle ground
Nhicl ou want: the present system,
cor, ely amended. or a return 20
I" systems which foster preferences
r.nd discriminate unjustly between favored
anl general creditors? You can assist in
the investigation which is being made by
passing this circular on, and advising
business mCu as TO their interests, when
they are called upon to express their
views

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 3.-The joint
committee On the improvement of the
Harbor of Philadelphia and the Delaware
and SchuylkiN rivers. composed of repre-
sentatives Of seven of the local CONNER
cial bodies. held n meeting yesterday in
the rooms Of the Board of Trade for tho
purpose of selecting delegates to the Ma
tiOnal River and Harbor Congress IL Bal
timore. October and 9. There was fun
representation and Chairman Joel Cook
presided. In calling the meeting to order
Mr.. Cook stated that the congress has
been called for the object OF preventing
recurrence of the action OF the last Fed
eraI Congress in failing to provide for
river and harbor improvements.
There was a lengthy discussion, in which
it developed that II was the sentiment of
the commercial organizations of Philadel-
phia that this city be fully represented a,
the Baltimore Congress. At the same
time the local bodies desired to keep aloof
from any attempt to have the subject OF
the Ship Subsidy bill before the last Con-
gress fOisted upon them.
All Of the speakers pronounced them
selves in favor of a subsidy bill that
would aid shipping in general. but op
posed to any measure that Disseminated
against the many In favor of the few.
1t was stated that at similar meeting
in Brunswick. Ga, last year the con-
ference was manipulated so as to get its
endorsement for the pending Subsidy bill.
much to the disgust of the delegates from
Philadelphia, who fought it's introduc-
tion in the proceedings.
1t was concluded that the secretary cor
respond with the officers OF the congress
at Baltimore and obtain full information
as to The plan and scope of the meetings.
and what topics would be brought up for
action. The secretary was instructed to
inform the Baltimore people that Il any
part of the programme was to be devot-
cd to the Ship Subsidy bill the PhiIadel-
phia business mems organizations would
not participate.

longer to employ the one hundred and
fifty motormen and conductors who Joined
the union Tuesday and quit work, pending
a settlement of the question as to signing
a surety bond which, the men claim, Is
intended to hold them responsible for ac-
cidents occurring while on duty. The
company contends that the bond is not
intended for that purpose. When the men
reported for duty yesterday morning, all
who had Joined the union were told that
their services were no longer required.
Half the usual number of cars were run

When the cars started they were board

The president then delivered her annual
address, setting forth the conditions of

BOILERS BECOME UNSAFE.
e Buffalo Concern Ordered to Shut
Down Its Shops.

BUFFALO. Oct. 3.-The Buffalo Pitts
burg Company has been obliged to lay Off
some of It's men and shut its shops tenn
pOrarily for a most peculiar reason. About
four weeks ago it was noticed that the
boilers were settling and the settling in
creased each week until last night the
State inspector of boilers notified the COM
pany it was unsafe to operate them.
1t is impossible to say how long the
shutdown will continue. The company
kept the boilers going as long as it posi-
bly, could because it had some big con-
tracts 20 fill. and to have shut down SOON
er would have entailed severe loss. All
departments that can run without power
will be kept going and repairs are to be
made as speedily as possible

WESTERN NEW YORK HOLDERS
The Agreement Not Likely to Pre-
vent Strikes.

BUFFALO, N. Y. oct. at is thought
today. in spite of an agreement reached
last night, that there will be strikes of
iron molders in shops owned by persons
who are not members of the National
Foundrymens Association These shops,
however, are not many, and the effect
will not be serious.
Last nights agreement precludes the
possibility of strikes, except on the small
scale mentioned. throughout western New
York. The agreement provides for gem
erau increase in wages for molders
amounting to 15 cents a day in each case.
The molders had asked merely for an in
crease Of % cents day for the minimum
men. By increasing the pay generally 10
cents for each man. the employers win
not have to pay more money than If they
had granted only the 25-cent increase to
the minimum men. and, it is thought.
more general satisfaction will be the re-
