House SECRETARIES hundred

House SECRETARIES. --One hundred
and fifty of the secretaries of Repre-
sentatiyes have formed what they call
ga social club" In reality the organi-
zation is for the mutual protection OF the
secretaries. Each Representative is PAID
$1,000 a year for secretary, and he pays
the secretary himself. The secretaries
want to draw their money from the dis
bursting officer of the House. They
declare many Representatives give their
secretaries only a few hundred dollars a
year and keep the rest; that four and
five Representatives hire one secretary
and give him one salary; that wives and
daughters and sometimes fictitious per-
sons figure as secretaries to the detriment
of those who are regularly in the work,
and that there are many other abuses OF
the law.

HARVARD MASS MEETING
Protests Against Seizure of Signs from
 sEudents' Rooms.

Cambridge. Mass, April 29.-Two or three hundred Harvard men gathered in Sanders theater this afternoon in re- sponse to call for a "mass meeting" to protest against the action of the col lege authorities in seizing large num- Der of signs which adorned the walls of college rooms. Some of the leaders in the movement made speeches which were brief but to the point, denouncing the part taken by the bursar as "high handed" Outrageous and "the most radical paternalism'' on record. It was finally voted to appoint commit tee of five to consider the matter at length and report its recommendations at a second mass meeting which it's members are authorized to call. The committee was appointed and had a ses- sion at the close of the meeting, but did not come to any definite decision.

RELIANCE BEHAVES FINELY
HAS SEVERE TEST IN NASTY SEA
 AND SQUALLS.
Tender Has Hard Struggle to Keep Up With Her-IseIin Much PIeased-Yacht to Proceed to New Rochelle To-day to
 Continue Her Tuning Up spins-Now
in Com missicn..

Newport, R. l., April 29-After hav- ing been formally placed in commission in the harbor here this afternoon the cup yacht Reliance was taken out for another trial spin, and during the two hours of sailing she was brought into conditions of wind and sea which gave her the most severe test she has yet had. That she proved herself to be a staunch, strong craft was the opinion of every one who saw her struggle in the nasty sea under the spiteful puffs which came during the heavy wind squalls when off the Conanicut shore. She behaved admirably on all points of sailing, and many times during the af- ternoon her tender, the Sunbeam, had a hard struggle to hold her position in the wake.
 On the way down the bay a small jib- topsail was broken out, and the Reli- ance, under full sail, headed straight out to sea, the wind having shifted a trife to the westward. Before she had cleared the passage, however, the wind suddenly took on force and came off the Conanicut shore in series of wick ed puffs. The Reliance stood up under 1t in fine shape, although she drove through a swirl of brine and foam and was heeled down at great angle. She kept up travelling, despite the mass of foam under her lee bow, and finally reached smoother water off the light ship. She was then sent away to the eastward for about two miles, when sheets were f1attened and she drew in shore again on the starboard tack. Af- ter being outside for about an hour her clubtopsail was taken in and she was headed back to Newport. The wind was still from the west and as she came up the passage with sheets started her lee rail was not quite awash, but her quarter was almost down to the water. while the bow was up clear. She made her moorings neatly about o'clock.
 MT. Iselin came ashore about o'clock this afternoon and said he was very much pleased with the performance of the yacht to-day. He said that the Re- liance would proceed to New Rochelle in the morning and would remain there for about two weeks, taking tuning-up spins in the sound as often as possible. k It is generally understood here that the Reliance will not return to Narra- gansett Bay until after the races in Long Island sound and off Sandy Hook, unless she should meet with some seri- ous accident which would necessitate repairs at the Herreshoff works.
 This morning a party of strangers went on board the Reliance while she was at anchor and took measurements, presumably for a new suit of sails. It is believed that Ratsey, the English sailmaker, who has loft at City Island, will cut the new canvas.

LONDON CLERGY AROUSED.
vanderbiIt- t-Rutherfurd Wedding Un.
 der Inqufry.

l der Inqutry.
 London. April 2s At tod session of the London diocesan conference the Bishop of London, the Right Rev. Ar
 thur F. Ingram, read a letter from rep lresentatives of the clergy of the diocese drawing attention to the Vanderbilt Rutherfurd wedding and requesting him to make such reference during the conference Ito this scandalous and de- plorable incident as shall serve to allay to some extent the distress of the cler- gy, who feel keenly this infringement of the marriage law in the diocese, and
 which may also lead others to realize
 how serious a breach of church disci-
 pline is involved in such a proceeding.''
 The bishop said he need hardly say that even without this letter the matter would have been investigated. He had
 seen the chancellor of the diocese, who contended that he was obliged by law
 to issue a license to divorced persons if
 any clergyman could be found to marry
 them. as in this case; that the latter
 was the guilty party; that the chancel-
 lor's Jurisdiction was entirely independ-
 ent of the bishops, and that the license
 went out in the chancellors' name, and
 not in the bishops.
 The Bishop of London added that he
 had already summoned Rev. MT. Had- den, who performed the ceremony, and after seeing him he would give his opin- |sion of the whole matter. x

Barrel Murd or the Cause. Boston, April 29.-seven Boston Ital- ians called at police headquarters to- day to beg for protection against the dreaded Maf1a, by which they claimed to have been ordered to contribute to the defense fund in the New York bar rel murder case. Inspectors have been sent to the Italian quarter to make in vestigations. x <:
 Each of the foreigners who was at headquarters to-day showed a letter dated April 25, New York The letters had been mailed Monday and received this morning. The Italians were thor oughly frightened even when they were in the secure shelter of Chief Watts private office. 7 '4.s.s Ks. x
 The letters told them that everywhere they went they were marked men, that the eye of the Mafla was on them al- ways, that they were as good as dead if they did not send the required money immediately. The letters were signed with Latin name. #g =s
 The Italians who received the letters are not members of the order, but they say they know of an Italian in their district who is. This alleged Mafian may be arrested by the inspectors if he can be connected with the threat atening letters, t*
