The special committee appointed by the Massachusetts Association of Con- gregational Churches to investigate the relations between wage-earners and the church in New England manu- facturing cities has reported that about 1000 answers were received from min isters, employers and labor leaders. More than half the ministers replied that workingmen were as active in their churches as business and profess sional men. The employers reported that 75 per cent. of 5O,OoO workmen were interested in and loyal to some church. About half of the labor leaders ex- pressed unfriendly sentiments. The re- port concludes that greater efforts should be made to minister to the spec ial needs of wage-earners.

MAY RESULT IN sILL.

New York, March S.--There is pos
sibility that the war being waged be-
tween the pool rooms Of this city and
the telegraph company which serves to
its customers returns from the various
race tracks may result In the presenta-
tion of a bill TO the legislature which,
should 1t become a law. will prohibit
the transmission of information relat-
ing to racing results by telegraph or
telephone in the state of New York In
fact, two such bills are now in con-
temptation.
Perhaps the most important move
since hostilities began has been the
shutting off of service to pool room in
Chicago, which, it was said. had been
caught delivering race results to an
agent of the New York gamblers for
transmission to this city by telephone.
This did not have the effect, however,
of crippling the New York rooms. In
formation was obtained from various
sources, but not without much delay,

No system Of Graft Employed
By Officials Of City. Says In

CORRUPTION IS SPORADIC
Mayor Believed That City IL full
of GrafIers, So Investigation
Follows, and Report Is
Favorable.

! Chicago, March S.-After three re-
visions the report OF the municipal
graft committee has been given to
the city council. Alderman T.. r.
Hermann. chairman OF the committee,
handed in the document, which con-
cludes five months investigation into
charges Of city hall corruption The
report finds there is no graft in Chi
cago-that is. no systematic graft
such as obtains in other cities. Graft
in Chicago is only sporadic" The re-
port also makes recommendations for
the reform OF public evils
The investigation was started when
Mayor Harrison in an. interview last
fall said that If he were to weed out
corruptionists he would have grafters
jumping out of every window Of the
city hall.
The results, before the report was
issued, were the suspension or dis
charge OF more than so city employees,
the indictment Of dozen and the res
ignation of numerous others. In the
matter Of measures for the suppression
of vice. the report Of the committee
takes issue with several Of the reform
movements which are now in the pub
lie eye. The report favors all night
saloons in localities devoted to noctur-
nal Industries and, as a solution Of the
problems arising from the social evil.
advocates the segregation of red light
resorts in certain quarters of the city

JEFFRIES WILL TRAIN
TO REDUCE WEIGHT

NEW YORK, Feb. 1t.-Champion Jim
Jeffries is getting too fat, in the opinion of
his manager, Billy Delaney, and the latter
hopes soon to have the big fellow taking
off flesh by training for a fight.
Delaney is now in New York. having
come on from San Francisco especially TO
find a match for the champion. He is ready
to talk business with the winner of the
Tom Sharkey-Jack Munroe battle, which is
to come off on Feb. q in Philadelphia.
If any other man should come along and
show that he has even a pretty fair right
for a tilt for the championship he will be
accommodated. but as matters stand now
the only men that have any right to cross
arms with Jeff. are Munroe and Sharkey.
The winner of their bout will be signed at
once by Delaney if he cares to stack up
against the boiler maker.
Delaney says positively that he will not
match the champion against a colored
boxer. 1t had been reported that he in
tended TO try and induce Jeffries to take on
Jack Johnson, but this report is away out
OF line, Delaney avs
Immediately upon his arrival in the East
Delaney called on Jeffries. and the pair
talked over this matter carefully. 1t was
the first time that Delaney and his protege
had n conference since the Jeffries-Corbett
fight.
Delaney has been on the Pacific coast ever
since the battle, bLt when he heard that
there was q possible chance for Jeffries to
clinch a match with one of the big heavy
weights ne at once decided to go to the
scene of action. Delaney has handled the
champion i'm all of his fights, and he has
full authority to make all matches for the
big Californian. Jeffries never thinks of
closing a deal without the advice of De-
laney. and the arrival of the sage trainer
business, and hat a fight is in store for the
near future.

HARD TO BEAT
IN EASTERN STAKES

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. Feb. H.-Claude,
the greatest little Derby horse the country
ever knew. will undoubtedly start in the big
Eastern handicaps this year-the Brooklyn
and the Suburban. With only 1O5 pounds on
his back in either OF these events local
turfmen wonder what can beat him.
Nj. j. DAILY. who owns Claude, has not said
definitely that he will start the son of
Lissak in either the Brooklyn or the Sub
urban. But Mr.. DAILY is not in the habit of
announcing his plans. However, there is no
mere astute hOrseman in the country than
he. and If Claude is right when the bugle
blows for the Brooklyn he will, in all proba-
bility, go to the post.
The weight allotted Claude by the Eastern
Handicapped seems ridiculousIy small. 1t
is a great question If any horse in the coun-
try can give him fifteen pounds and a beat
ing at a mile and an eighth or over. 1t
seems certain there is no horse in the cOun-
try that can give him twenty pounds and a
beating at a mile and a quarter.
His hard season OF racing last wear an
pears TO have done him no harm. He is the
same Claude that ran second in the Ameri-
can Derby. after being badly knocked about
At the start. he can run in any going. on
any kind of = track; can pack weight like
a camel; Is game and as tough and as I'M
likely 10 suffer from accident as a football
player the day before Thanksgiving.
1t will not be surprising il Claude is one
OF the best handicap horses in the country
this year. and he starts out giving promise
OF gathering as much money in stakes as
any fOur-year-Old in the country.
For the Montgomery handicap Claude is
handed top weight. 13 pounds. along with
Injunction But with his light imDOsts in
the Brooklyn and Suburban in view. il will
be somewhat surprising il he is sent to
the post IN the feature race at the new
Memphis Jockey Club. Already this sea-
son Claude has gathered several thousand
dollars foi his owner. and the racing year
mas hardly begun.
Claude Is the third horse that has twice
finished inside the money in the Burns han
dicap. but his second performance bettered
his first, which Is unique In this race. I'm
1s95 and 1895 Lovdal ran second. In ISIS
Satsuma won and IN 1879 ran second. Both
these had less weight up the second time
they got part OF the Burns money than the
nrst But Claude ran third in the Burns
last year with % pounds. and then came
back this year with i22 pounds and finished
second He must win, however. to equal
the performance OF his sire. who won tho
race In 1884, when II was run as the Spree
kles handicap.
