RECTOR OBJECTS TO
 LUNCHEON FARE
THE REV. T. J. EARLY OF IRVING TON, N. J., FORBlDS CATHOLIC CHILDREN TO ATTEND MISS ooULD's SCHOOL.

Tarrytown. N. T., November 1S.-The Rev. T. J. Early, rector of the Catholic church of Irvington, has forbidden the children of Catholic parents in his parish to attend the sewing school which for years has been maintained by Miss Helen NJ Gould. About 300 children attend the school.
 Father Early's first objection was made when some of the Catholic children att tended a luncheon given by Miss Gould on Friday. At this luncheon meat was served and the Catholic children partook of it, unmindfu of the day. As soon as Father Early learned of this, he put the school under the ban. Since then there has been some correspondence between the priest and Miss Gould.
 Another thing the priest objected to was that hymn was sung at the opening of the affair. In her reply to that com plaint Miss Gould told him 1t had been her wish to have the daily sessions of the class opened by readings from the scrip lures, but out of deference to the Roman Catholic children she had refrained from having this done. In the future her origi- nal wish will be carried out.

COMPANY PLANS TO
 OPERATE MORE CARS
MAYOR HARRISON SAYS PROS PEcTS FOR SETTLING CHICAGO STRIKE ARE NOT so HOPEFUL AS FORMERLY.

Chicago, November 1S.-The City Rail- way company has effected plans for open ing up three more of it's trunk lines be- fore the close of the week. The general plan of procedure drawn by the police and the management provides for the starting of the Indiana avenue electric cars today, the Halsted street tomorrow and the States street cable trains on Friday.
 Passengers have begun to take the Wentworth avenue cars in such large numbers that the police no longer fear riots along this right of way. Within a few days similar condition is expect ed on Cottage Grove avenue, which was opened up yesterday. Little or no t-ou- ble is looked for on Indiana avenue, but the management dreads the effort in sending out cars in IIalsted and State streets"
 It was decided tonight by the Chicago City Railway company to start cars on the Halsted street line tomorrow. This will make the fourth sI' ip opera ton, the lars having been ssA3 ssf.h. luat on the Wentworth, Cottage Grove and h. diana avenue lines.
 The lIalstead street cars run through ulStrlct where the chances Tor trouble are many, and if this line can be suc- cessfully operated, the company will feel confident of being able to resume busi- ness in a very short time, even though the attempts by the men to secure arbi- tration shall prove to be somewhat pro- tracted The day was the most quiet of the strike.
 While 1t was quiet out-of-doors, around the mayors oSice it was exceedingly busy. The council committee appointed Monday night with the object of securing arbitration if possible. was in session the greater part of the day and evening. It met the officials of the company and the representatives of the union, and induced both sides to agree to outline their opin- ion of the scope arbitration should have. A committed, representing all the unions existing among the city transportation companies. called upon the mayor and while making no direct threats, allowed it to be understood by inference that if arbitration was not promptly secured a general strike would follow on all lines in the city.
 Late tonight Mayor Harrison said the prospects for settlement of the strike were not as hopeful as they were yester- day.

American Federation of Labor Votes Against Movement-Money May Be Appropriated to Fight Ala
 bama Anti-Boycott Law.

Boston, November 1S.-After a long de- bate, chiefly noteworthy because of the bitter language of President Samuel Gompers in dealing with socialism, the American Federation of Labor today de- feated resolutions pledging it to socialism. Nine resolutions presented by socialists and calling for the adoption of their prin- ciples, had been reported upon favor ably by the committee on resolutions and delegates representing a voting strength of n,282 registered themselves in sup port of the committees recommendation, while delegates with 2,1S5 votes cast in favor of the resolutions.
 The climax came when President Com pers, in bitter and unqualified language. scored socialism.
 President Gompers defended the posi- ton of President Duncah who had been attacked by Mr. Carey. MT. Gom- ter in his statements against socialism and was interrupted frequently from the floor. In closing he said:
 q am at variance with your philosophy Socially, you are wrong and industrially you are an imposslbility. l have an abid- ing faith in the trades union movement because 1t Is the protector of labor to- day, and if emancipation comes some time, it must be the trades union move- ment that will achieve it."
 A great volume of applause followed the conclusion of MT. Gompers' speech.
 A resolution appropriating $1000 to the Alabama state branch of the federation to test the constitutionality of the anti boycott law in that state was referred to the executive council with the recom- mendation that it be given early consid- eration.
 The convention then adjourned until to- morrow.

VERY POOR LUCK FOR
 GROVER CLEVELAND
SAGE OF PRINCETON SEEMS TO HAVE LOST HIS kNACK FOR TAGGING GAME-KEEPs UP THE HUNT.

Norfolk, Va, November 1S-Former President Grover Cleveland. who is now gunning on the preserves of the Back Bay Gun club, in Princess Anne coun- ty, has so far had such poor luck that not enough game has been bagged to send Mrs. Cleveland her usual box pro- ceeding the ex-Presldents home coming.
 The probabilities are that the Cleveland party will spend two more days gunning at Back Bay and return on Saturday. It has developed that MT. Cleveland and the nonresident members of his party have laid themselves liable to arrest and a considerable fine for violating the new game law of Virginia which requires ev- cry nonresident to get a $10 license be- fore he shoots game in this state.
 None of the Cleveland party has obey ed this law.

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP
Cut ed by One Bottle of Chambsriain's
 Cough Remedy,

"When l had an attack of the grip last winter (the second one) I actually cured myself with one bottle of Cham berlain's Cough Remedy says Frank V. Perry. editor of the Enterprise. Shortsville, N. Y. This is the honest truth. at times kept from coughing myself to pieces by taking teaspoon full of this remedy, and when the cough ing spell would come on at night I would take dose and it seemed that in the briefest interval the cough would pass off and I would go to sleep per- feet1y free from cough and it's accom-
 panying pains. To say that the remedy acted as a most agreeable surprise is putting it very mildly. I had no idea
 that it would or could knock out the ] grip, simply because I had never tried it for such purpose, but it did and it seemed with the second attack of
 coughing the remedy caused it to not only be of less duration, but the pains were far less severe, and had not used the contents of one bottle before MT. Grip had bid me adieu." For sale by tall druggists: 1. s,+ a.s>asSf ], t', ',,@AA ;.
