Adams was well enough TO go to trial. A

for the prosecution was opened.
At the close OF the days proceedings

CHALICES or THEIR TRINkETS.
Catholic Converts Giving Treasured Relics
to BE Melted for the Mass.

One of the oldest collections ever made
in this country for a religious purpose
has been begun by Father Doyle of the
Paulists to provide the fifteen chalces
which will be needed by the priests at the
Apostolic Mission House in Washington.
Converts to the Catholic faith are the ex-
elusive contributors, and gold trinkets,
not money, are desired.
In the collection are wedding rings with
sad his tories, engagement rings with even
more melancholy associations, rings and
tiny lockets which have been worn by little
children whose mothers now mourn, and
trinkets with more costly gems. Each has
some human interest attached to IL. They
are treasures which In many cases have
been sacred to their owners, and money
could not purchase them, so they have
been given TO be used in the making OF
the most sacred of all the vessels used in
the Catholic ritual.
When enough jewels and gold have
been collected Father Doyle will have
the trinkets melted. and from the gold and
jewels the chafces will be made.

The Wine Liquor and Beer Dealers Gem
trial Association OF Manhattan and The
Bronx held It's first meeting yesterday since
the bill was passed to increase the cost OF a
liquor license from $500 to 81 200 a year.
There were 300 members present and after a
five-hour secret session the secretary read
of TO the reporters string Of very mild res
outons and declared that their adoption
was all that had been accomplished. Moth
ing was said about boycotting New York
State farm products and f. B. Taber. a
representative Of the butter, cheese and milk
dealers, who went to the meeting was as
sured that the liquor dealers. az a whole, had
no Intention of Withdrawing their patronage
from the upstate farmers.
The saloon men denounced Gov. Odell for
securing the passage Of the bill to increase
the tax and Mayor Low for not protesting
against II. Some very warm threats TO XIII
the reform administration at the next
election were simmered down 10 this decla-
ration for the public:
With reference to the announcement that
We are going into politics we beg leave TO
state that we are men engaged IN s business n 81
we have In our ranks members Of all political
parties whose attitude toward their respective
partv policy has on our interests In this
respect we differ from no class Of our citizens.
Another section Of the formal statement
was:
IL there are evils arising from liquor traffic
the evils are felt most in the localities where
the business is carried on, so the revenue
from IL should be spent in those localities
for educational. charitable and police pur-
poses.
The other resolutions were to the effect
that the new law would injure respectable
saloonkeepers, benefit the dives and in
crease illegal selling.

SIFB FOR ODELL MACHINE
ALL IT'S LEGS TO BE PLANTED
~ THE NEW CANAL.

when the SOL. 600. 00o 10 sauandered
Cheaper Rail Transportation VIM
Have Made the Canal Impossible % .
Carrier-What II Deyoured Last Year.
On the neglected canals the State spent
last summer 81 .5l2, 1879 for repairs, accord
ing to the report OF the Comptroller on
the canal funds which he paid out. This
was more than any railroad in the State
spent for similar expense and the New
York Central Railroad has 2,s2s miles OF
tracks In this State to the $50 miles Of the
Erie Canal.
Since the passing Of the canals usefulness
was recognized in 1882, when the tolls were
taken OF, the State has spent more than
pers cry that the railroads have advanced
beyond the canal because the canal has
been neglected and has not been brought
up to date.
In all that time. twenty years, the canals
have turned into the State Treasury not a
dollar of earnings while the two railroads
that are supposed to be it's conquering rivals
have had TO pay S37 600 900 in taxes in that
twenty years, one Of them paying last year
a tax which amounted to $500 on each mile
Of track and it has a four-track route.
These figures point the truth Of the state
ment that the canal Is the most expensive
way OF taking freight to market. With the
advance OF railroads slow water trans
portation has taken its place with the
stage coach The coming OF the i2O-ton
engine and the l00-ton car has forever
eliminated the canal as a traffic bearer.
Canals like the Suez Canal and the 500, which
connect two bodies OF water. creating a
shorter route by which large vessels may
pass from one to the other and freight may
be carried without breaking bulk, may pay;
but a canal over 400 miles long cannot.
Speed is out Of the question because of the
size relation Of the body Of water TO the
vessel and because Of the locks made neces-
sary by the different levels.
With the railroad which carries to New
York in twelve hours il put In competition
the canal, for which the highest estimate
Of its friends Is that when improved by the
expenditure OF si0I COCOON boats may
make ten round trips in the year.
AI.ake steamer lying at Buffalo can 20 to
Chicago. reload and get back to Buffalo
before a canalboat Of to-day can pass from
Buffalo to New York. An Atlantic liner
can journey from New York to Liverpool
while canalboat is coming from Buffalo to
New York. Such slow transportation, it
is contended by the canal partisans. is a
regulator Of railroad traffic and freight
rates.
By the time the enlarged canal is COM
pleted, IL the plan Of the Davis bill should
be put through, science will have made
steps in motive power which will reduce
the cost of railroading and put it in the
power of the railroad to carry grain and
freight at price which the i,oOo-ton barge
of expense fixed forever cannot meet.
Yet many people will vote for the pro-
posal next fall. The Odell machine is to
be built up out Of the ditch.

WHAT ABOUT FOREST PLEDGES.
Adirondacks Association Wonders Why
OdeIl Has Not Redeemed Them.

OOeI tt2S NOt neOeemeu Iueu.
At the annual meeting Of the Association
for the Protection Of the Adirondacks, held
yesterday, the report OF ice-President
Warren Higley showed the membership
to be 1854 and the treasurers balance
81, $40 These ten trustees were elected
for three years: Henry Phipps. James
Whitelaw Reid, William @. Rockefeller,
Titus Sheard and W A. Rogers.
Legislation now pending at Albany affect
ing the Adirondacks was discussed, and
there were outspoken expressions ON the
Water Storage bill and the neglect Of the
Legislature to make an appropriation
for the continuation OF the purchase Of land
in the Adirondack Park. This resolution
was adopted
Resoired. That this association condemns
the bill now. pending in the Legislature OF
the State Of New York, introduced by Senator
Lewis and known as the Water Storage Com
mission bill. as unnecessary, unwise and dan
threatens the Adirondack Park Of this State;
and that any measure which proposes the
floods should, by it, terms, except the property
within the lines of the Adirondack Park
from its provisions.
Verplanck Colvin, former Super intendent
of the State Land Survey and the Adiron-
dack Survey, was one Of those who pro-
tested against the indeterminate provisions
Of the Water Storage bill. He evidently
reflected the views OF the meeting when he
commended that before any scheme for
water storage is authorized, the location
Of the reservoirs, the height Of the water.
the contour of the areas TO be submerged,
the expense OF construction and many
other details should be definitely known
The secretary reported that the trus-
tees had secured the introduction of bill
to continue the acquisition Of land In the
Adirondack and Catskill parks. Astonish-
ment was expressed that the Legislature
had not yet done anything toward keeping
the pledges given by both political parties
last fall in their platforms to resume the
purchase Of lands within these State pre-
serves. 1t was remarked that Gov. Odell's
majority Of 5000 last fall would probably
have been much smaller II lovers OF the
forest had not believed that the promise
Of his party in this respect would be kept.
Among those present was Mrs. Horace
See, an enthusiastic practical forester. Mrs.
See is personally conducting experiments
in forestry on her place at Glen Summit,
Pa, where she is planting 900 white pine
trees.
