room enough. Working girls who need
a rest will be boarded at the home for
a reasonable sum, while those who come
from outside of the city or who are
without any means, will find the Lin

be taken care of by the society, while
those who have friends or who are in
circumstances to pay, will be boarded

DECISION I'M COAL CASES
Controversy Between Anthracite Misers
and Employers Is Settled ~
Favor CT Men.

Scranton, Pa, Sept. 2S.-Iudge,
George Gray, to whom was referred the
controversy of the anthracite miners
on the check w~eighman question, which
had previously been adjud1cated ny
Carroll D. Wright in favor of the min
ers, has also decided the issue in the
same way.
The opinion is q lengthy one. making
3. thorough review OF all the issues
presented by both sides, and is sub
stantiaIly along the lines taken by Mr..
Wright.
The controversy related to inter-
probation OF one of the regulations laid
down By the anthracite commission
which settled the great strike. One Of
the complaints of the men was that
they were not treated fairly in weigh
ing their coal. They are paid for &C
cordfng to weights taken OUT and they
claimed the companies habituaIly n
nipuIated these 30 as to underpay the
men. 1t was decided that they should
have the right to employ check weigh
men, to see all Weighing done and keep
a tally OF them. These check weigh
men were to be paid by the miners.
The companies raised the question
whether all miners should be assessed
to make this payment. or only those
who we're members of the union. The
companies declined to collect assess
nents from any but the union men.
The men appealed, and the decision re
quires that all alike, union or nonunion.

GIFT TO SCIENCE DENIED

New York, Sept. 2S.-The desire ex-
pressed by Dr, George Conant, who died
last week that his brain De delivered 10

hell university in h interest of sci
entif1c research, will never be fulfilled.
The body of the physician has been Gre
mated by order of his relatives, who OBJ
iected to the fuIfllment of his reported
wish regarding the disposition Of his
brain.
DR.. Conant discovered some years ago
that he had diabetes. For this disease
no sure cure has been discovered.
The secretions of the kidneys contain
more and more of grape sugar. n the
patient wastes away. In Or. Conants
case. the deposit OF lime salts in the
arteries, which usually accompanies Old
age, showed itself 10 such an extent
that his arteries were hardened as they

A Disease of the Brain.
Medical men ave come to believe of
late years that the origin OF diabetes
is in the brain. They have observed
that q arrangement OF the fourth ven
tricIe of the brain is accompanied by a
arrangement of the ~glycoglnic function
of the liver, hal Is, the work OF that
organ is ~disposing of the Agar chemi-
calIy produced in the process of diges-
ton. An accurate demonstration as to
whether this theo'~ is true or false will
be Of great value.
DR.. Burt Wilder of Cornell unEver-
stty. Is recognized as a leader in In
vestigatlons relating to the brain.
Years ago he organized a brain So
ciety," each Of whose members agrees
to leave by viii his brain to the So
ciety for scientific purposes. One Of
the most important objects Of this So
cisty IS the study OF the brains of dis
tinguished persons.
DIR. Wilder is also qualified above
most specialists to examine diseased or
abnormal brain tissue. 1t was with
this in mind hat DR.. Conant desired
him to examine his own brain, with a
view to recording exact scientific OBJ
servations on the relation of the fourth
ventricle to diabetes.
DR.. Otto Mafer Of No. 212 East
Eighteenth street, was a neighbor and
close friend of DIR. Conant, and was
summoned when DR.. Conant died. He
said last night that he had frequently
been consulted by DR.. Conant. He was
a brave man." said DR.. Maier. Con-
ant never seemed to let his knowledge
that he had an incurable disease inter
fere With his york. He studied as If
he hoped to live forever"

POPE FEELS iaSULTED
'ained by the Meeting Of the Freo
Thinkers Recently Held in the
CITY CT Rome.

Rome, Sept. 28.--The pope, in a letter
10 Cardinal Fespighi, the vicar general
of the pontiff, said in part:
"A new cause of bitterness has been
added TO many ~anxieties which espe-
cially in our times accompany the gov
eminent Of the Universal church. We
have learned with infinite sorrow that
it is asserted that the c~ultivators Of
free thought have met in Rome, while
the painful echo of their speeches Is I'M
fortunately confirmed by their grim de-
signs. Intelligence is the uobIest gift
the creator has granted us, but 1t be-
comes s~acrilegious when subtracted
from dependency on the almighty. or
rejects the direction and comfort OF
divine truth"
The pope says the Insult was rem
dered the more grave by the free think
ers' meeting in Rome, the city which
had been destined as a depository of
the faith. thus taking from Rome it's
designation as the tranquil, respected
see of Christ's vicar.
