EpiscOpalians Discuss Report Against Mar.
rage OF Divorced Persons.

TlNBt VI bNOfCtti rcEbOut.
Boston, Oct. 1.-THE House Of Deputies
OF the Protestant Episcopal Church took
up for consideration at it's meeting to-day
the subject Of Marriage and Divorce, v
the debate which ensued being based on
the report OF the committee on canons,
to which the matter Of preparing certain
amendments had been referred.
The committee submitted a ma jority and
a minority report, that Of the former being
to amend the canon so that II would read;
mo minister shall solemnize a marriage
between any two persons. unless by in
quiry he shall have satisfied himself that
neither person has been or Is the husband
or the wife Of any other person then living,
from whom he or she has been divorced
for any cause arising after marriage
Another section of the amended canon
provides that whenever any question arose
az to the legality Of the application OF either
rarty to the marriage ceremony. questions
OF fact shall be referred to the Bishop OF
the diocese who shall make such inquiry
as he shall deem expedient. and deliver his
judgment in the premises.
The minority report, signed by three OF
the committee, dissents from the ma jority
report, leaving the canon as 1t is, but recon-
mending that questions Of fact shall be de-
terrnined by the record Of the civil court
which adjudged or decreed the divorce.
A long di scussion followed the reading
OF the reports and it will be resumed to-
morrow. This afternoon the two houses
sat as the joint board Of missions and list

went to the racetrack. There, he told
Magistrate Pool, he met Classon. Monday
nieht Classon took Schmidt to O place on
Forty-third street, which both described
There were a lot OF men there testi-
fed Schmidt, "and l gave him $500 to bet
for me. He took the money, but didn't
see him do ANYTHING with it; Then gave
through the crowd and got out. followed
him to the Hotel Metropole and there he
passed the money to another man
The other man, who was arrested later,
was Richard s. Darling Of 228 West Twenty
nth street Da ,bs said as
discharged, Classon then denied that he
had stolen any money He admitted giving
Schmidt points in friendly way.
How did you know that the horse was
going to VIM" asked Magistrate Pool.
Il knew a good deal Of money was 60
ing to be put on him. replied the prisoner. =.
Don't you know that the horses that
are bet on In these poolrooms never win, or
only once in a great whilees asked the
Magistrate. That's where. the poolroom
men get their money.
"Oh, I've won lots OF money in poolrooms, "
Dragged Classon.
well, then, you must have been on the
inside" insisted the Magistrate. The
prisoner was held for trial In 81 900 bail on
the charge of larceny, and $500 on an ad-
ditonal charge Of placing bets on his own
statement

DECKER OVER STOLEN JEWBLRY
With . Detective Sergeant and . Lawyer
in II and Civil Suit.

John Howard Taylor, who while living
at the Hotel Seymour In June 1903, was
robbed Of jewelry valued at $4,i25 and got
two-thirds OF the stun back, is being sued
for 81 900 by Harry Sartoris, who SAYS
that Taylor offered 81 900 as q reward for
the recovery Of the missing articles and
that plaintiff earned the reward. .a..
Taylor in his answer denies that he owes
Sartoris anyt hing. He admits that the
plaintiff called on him -in company with
detective sergeant and that Sartoris
said he could recover the jewelry. Three
men we're arrested for the robbery. and
one OF them pleaded guilty. One Of the
three Taylor says, approached him through
a lawyer and offered to return the jewelry
for $1,000. Taylor refused to give more
than $500, and Tor that sum a package was
turned over to him ut the Hotel Metropole
by the three men who had been arrested.
The package, Taylor says, contained only
two-thirds OF the stolen jewelry.

O,LEARY'S ". p. GAMBLE.
Brokers Testify That His Brokers Did
Pretty Well for Him.

Samuel Sim, formerly Of Stsrnberger,
Fuld 4 Sim, broker testified again yes
terday at the hearing before Referee Philip
E. Reville in the suit brought by j j. O 'Leary
Of Chicago against the firm to recover
$4,000 lost on the short side OF Northern
Pacific in the panic Of May 0, 1901.
O'Leary sold short 200 shares OF N. P. oom-
mon and Sternberger, Fuld Il Sim. on
an order to buy at the market, covered him
at $3.50 and 500, the general settlement
price after the panic being $50.
of Nav there were 500 shares Of Northern
Pacific common borrowed on the firms
account from Kuhn, Loeb d Co. and that
1 900 shares we're in an arbitrage transact
ton, bought simultaneously in London.
Lawyer Wilcox wanted to know why the
200 shares In the 900 covered by Its London
purchase and put down to its own account
the lose on its customers 200 shares.
~We had to buy In o Learys stock because
we were ordered TO do 80. the witness re-
piled.
that there was no other way out1'
Counsel for the defendant objected to
this question. and it was not answered.
The witness showed signs OF getting
excited when the lawyer called despatch
sent by the defendant firm q dummy tele-
why the Sternberger firm had -shouldered
the loss on 200 shares on o Leary. while
they carried short interest OF 100 shares
for Mr.. Sternberger's brother and also
for others.
aWe could not carry o. eary's stock. Mr..
Sim shouted, without breaking our con-
tract with Kuhn, Loeb 4 Co. and putting
ourselves in great difficulty and peril"
But you bought In 200 shares for OLeary,
and you didn't buy the others in said
counsel for the plaintiff.
Counsel for the defendant firm said that
the firms books, when produced at the trial
Of the suit In Chicago, would show the trans
action with the customer. He called sew
eral brokers, who testified that they had
bought Northern Pacific stock on May Q at
higher prices than O'Leary had paid and
who agreed that O'Leary's two tele-
graphic orders OF May to buy 200 shares at
the market had been well executed.
Edward L. Norton, formerly OF Street

ern Pacific out on loan and called it in on
the afternoon OF May O.. refused, under
cross -examination, to tell for whom he was

PLEASED WITH THE SUBWAY.
n. r. Board Noted Particularly the Lack
Of Vibration on the Trains.


The Rapid Transit Commission, when it
meets tomorrow afternoon, is likely to give
formal certificate to the marlborough
company to operate the entire subway,
with the exception Of the East Side branch,
in which the signal system is not yet in
full working order. ..
The commissioners expressed themselves
yesterday as greatly pleased with what
they saw in the subway on their formal
tour of Monday afternoon. On the West
Sic line the complicated signal system
was demonstrated to be in perfect order
and most OF the stations, those south Of
Seventy-second street particularly, prac-
tically completed There Is still much
more to be done on some OF the uptown
stations; but the marlborough officials
say that they will be ready for business
before Oct. 81, the date for the opening.
One OF the things particularly noted by
the commissioners was the almost entire
lack Of vibration on the trains when in
motion This is due principally to the
skilful manner in which the road is ballasted
Lots OF persons continued to ride yesterday
on both local and express trains. which
were operated under full schedule. The
members OF the Brooklyn League were
taken through the subway by the Inter
borough officials on an experimental train
which left the City Hall at 2:S0 o'clock
In the afternoon.
