Oyster Bay F1ghts Injunction to Prevent
Them From TEARING IL Down.


President Roosevelt's cousin. W. Emlen
Roosevelt, who lives In Oyster Bay in Janu-
airy last obtained from the town a permit
to build pier from the sea wall out into
the bay for the convenience Of himself and
his guests, as well as for that Of the guests
OF President Roosevelt. The Highway
Commissioners urge that Mr.. Roosevelt
has not lived up to the terms Of the permit
and that the town had no right to issue
the permit, anyway. The Highway Com
missioners decided to tear down the pier
in July, but Justice Garretson granted a
temporary injunction. Argument to make
the injunction permanent was made before
Supreme Court Justice Herriok in Brooklyn
yesterday. The Highway Commissioners
sontended that the shore front is a high
way across which the pier crosses.
We wish the injunction continued. p" said
Of The President uses the pier and"
.Oh, the President don't do any such
thing" said counsel for the Highway Com
missioners.

The sign is visible from the window Of
the Office occupied by President P. H.
Mccormick OF Typographical Union No. 8,
and he pointed to it yesterday, when SUN
reporter asked for his views on the attack
made by Father M. j. Ward of Beloit, Wis,
on the oath administered by the union to
its members.
THAT is the best answer" he said, ito
any rumor Of clash between our union and
the Catholic Church. There can be no
reason for antagonism between them.
A very large percentag Of the printers in
this city are Catholics.
AThe oath for our members includes this
passage which has given rise to the present
stir: That my fidelity to the union and
my duty to the members thereof shall in
no sense be interfered with by any ale
glance that may now or hereafter owe to
any other organization, social, political
or religious, secret or otherwise
II admit that It is open to misinterpre-
tation. but what it means is simply that no
discrimination shall be shown against a
man, or in his favor. on account OF his creed
or political opinion
Father Hayes, chancellor Of the diocese
of New York, viewed the matter differently,
although he came to the same conclusion
as Mr.. Mccormick. He insinuated very
strongly that the oath taken by the mem
bers Of the union was not in accordance
with the Church views
mo oath obliging man to obey the rules
of an organization, in preference to the
laws Of the Church or the State, can have
the sanction Of the Catholic Church. Il
is on this ground that the Church fights the
secret societies. But there is no reason to
regard the Typographical Union as equally
dangerous.
'The Church also recognizes the fact that
the members Of the union rarely consider
the utmost consequences Of the obligation
they take When reasoned with, they
never fail to recognize the logical attitude
Of the Church and to put themselves in
such a position that they do not exclude
themselves from the Church. We deal
with each individual case as it arises, and
so far there has never been any trouble"

"Cuban Wonder" Threw Washington
Wrestler Twice.

The wrestling bout at the Germania
Maenerchor Hall. Baltimore. last night be-
tween Joe Grant of Washington and the
Cuban Wonder was won by the Cuban.
Grant and the Wonder made beautiful
exhibition. The Cuban under the cond1-
lions of the articles of agreement, was to
weigh in yesterday afternoon at $50 pounds.
He refused to get on the scales and for
feited $25. When he stripped in the ring
he looked to weigh 1855 pounds or more.
Grant weighed in at $50 pounds.
The bout was very lively. Grant made
an excellent showing, but the odds In weight
were against him. Many of the specta-
tors were Of the opinion that Grant would
win or at the worst get a draw.
1t is probable that C. ]. Weiss. Grants
manager the man who gave the show, was
OF the same opinion. If he was he, like
the spectators. was badly fooled.
The Cuban Wonder, by the use OF Nell
son and body hold. won the first fall in
twenty minutes and fifteen seconds.
There was some pretty work done in the
second bout. Finally Grant got neck
and-scissors hold on the Wonder and PIN
ned his shoulders to the mat: Time thir-
teen minutes and twenty-five seconds.
The interest by this time was intense
After a ten-minute rest the pair appeared
for the final test. Neither appeared TO
have tired much after their previous exer-
tons and they claShed like men who were
Just beginning a contest. Each was con-
fident to such an extent that he was fear
less After considerable work and many
narrow escapes by each contestant the Gu
ban Wonder secured double arm lock and
downed his man.
Professor Bailey, the referee, was thor
oughly impartial, and did not award fall
until contestant had his shoulders pinned
to the mat.

President August Hermann Of the nation
al base ball commission yesterday at Gin

Pitcher Ferry and Outfelder Mcintyre Of
the Buffalo club, who were claimed by both
the Detroit and Pittsburg clubs.
Mr.. Hermann finds that there being no
evidence to the contrary the claim of the
Detroit club that it has made bona fide
deals for the transfer of both these players
holds good, and that the draft Of the Pitts
burg club, therefore. cannot be allowed.
The evidence of the Detroit club shows that
