New York, June 15.=Work on the
exterior of the new granite custom

Railway Ordinance Repeal Bills Re

Philadelphia. June 15.-Another blow
was dealt at the Republican organiza-
ton when the street railway committee
Of the council referred back to that
body the bills repeating the ordinances
granting to the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company franchises for 10
miles Of streets without payment to the
city The ordinances granting the fran
chises were passed over Mayor Weav-
er's veto and at his instigation the re-
pealers were introduced.
The outcome of the attempt to bestow
the franchise is regarded as a victory
for the mayor whose wishes in the mat
ter were opposed by the organization
leaders.

KILLED A BABY.
Body of Two Day Old Infant Found
on River Bank.

The body of a white baby boy was
found on the drive way under the Santa
Fe railroad bridge at 10 o'clock last
night by a negro named Henry Johnson,
of SIT Central street. The child was
not more than two days old, but Coroner
H. H. Keith is confident that the infant
was snothered tS death. The body was
wrapped in paper and tied up with a
string, and the negro says he thought
he had found an so cent roast of beef
until he moved over to the moonlight
and tearing the end of the parcel, ex-
posed the face of a dead baby. With
a scream os terror the negro dropped

lin, who lives at sO2 State street, a,
short distance from the bridge. stopped
the negro and inquired the cause of his
haste. He told her what he had found,
and she went down and removed the
body from the track before the passing
of the next car.
Coroner Keith has secured no clue to
the parentage of the child, and stated
today that he would not hold an in
quest unless directed to do so by the
county attorney as he could think OF
nothing an inquest could bring out. The
child had been dead but a short time
when found, as the body was limp.
Why it was dropped in the roadway
where it was sure to be found instead OF
thrown in the river few feet away, IS
more than the coroner can understand.

At the jefferson.

Lulu Chaser captured the crowd at the
Jefferson theatre last night as Mary Tu-
dor, "A Madcap Princess. Her vivacity,
irrepressible good humor and hoydenish
ways were a delight. AS the madcap
princess she storms, laughs, cries and
plays most undignified pranks at the ex-
pense of King Henry WILL while at the
same time making violent love to Charles
Brandon. All through this diverting comic
opera Miss CHASER was at her best.
"A Madcap Princess is hardly musical
enough for comic opera. 1t might be a
comedy with the music left out AS an
adaptation the story follows in general
lines the novel and the play when
Knighthood Was in Flower" Miss CHASER
makes the role of Mary Tudor essentially
comic and her humor is infectious.
Miss CHASER is very popular in Bir-
mingham and her friends gave her a
cordial welcome last night. Not only was
the theatre filled but those present were
enthusiastic In their applause of her
comedy efforts. Her explosive littel laugh
and tomboy tactics were enjoyed i'm
mensely.

general council of the Congregational
churches of the United States, tonight
gave out the following reply to the state
ment of H. H. Rogers, vice president of
the Standard Oil company:
Mr.. Rogers alleges that the vast sums
extorted in rebates by the Standard Oil
company from it's competitors was legal
ly' taken, because no law explicitly for
bade them. What l said was that the
money was 'fiagitously acquired To
coerce the railroads into an arrangement
whereby it acquired large rebate, not
only on its own OIL but all the oils sent
by it's competitors to force the railways
to rob it's competitors for its enrichment,

that time by which robbery could be
punished, the robbery was no less flag

PROBLEM OF CHURCH'S POOR

Washington, March s1-At today,s ses-
sion OF the Baltimore Methodist conf r.
ence resolution for equal representation
Tor laymen which dealt with the oues-
ton at some length was introduced de-
elaring among other things:
I'VE believe the claim that annual con-
ferences have to do exclusively with min
isterial matters is not borne out by the
facts. 1t Is the laynens loyalty and gifts
TO the church, not the ministers alone.
that have made 1t possible for Methodism
to exist"
The laymen who spoke on the subject
announced their purpose of waging active
warfare throughout the country for the
change prior to the general conference in
1905
President Lewis NJ. Bacon of Townsend,
Md, of the Laymen's association, in the
course OF his annual address, eulogized
President Roosevelt for his loyalty %

when Mr. Roosevelt first came to Wash
ington he did not cast about to find a
large and fashionable congregation, but
attended a congregation that met in
most humble and unpretentious edifice.

the manner of dealing with the poorer
IN churches He said in part:
Not long ago a Methodist asked me:
Why is it that the Catholls church is
more successful in reaching the poor than
we?' l replied: THAT is easy. They never
talk about 1t. They draw no distinctions.
They never abuse the one nor patroni. e
the other The Methodist church was de-
signed for people-rich people and poor
people, educated and uneducated people.
cultured and uncultured. But l do not be-
lieve it was ever the design of God or
man that it should be the church of one
to the exclusion of the others. In my
judgment the only way to keep it the
church of all is to stop drawing distinc-
ton between the sons of men. | believe
there is more prejudice on the part of
those whom the world calls poor against
those whom the world calls rich, than vice
versa. But believe this prejudice Is only
heightened by continually talking about
1t, and If this were a popular audience
as distinguished from a gathering of
church workers, 1 would not refer to the

STATEMENTS REAssURINe.
French Senate Crowded to Hear Del
case on Morocco Question.

Paris, March 31.-The Senate this
afternoon was crowded by members
of the diplomatic corps in anticipation
of a debate on ,--~ Morocco question.
In answer to an Interpolation on the
subject, Foreign Minister Delcasse
said briefly that the policy of France
In Morocco had not changed as a re-
suit of the Anglo-French agreement of
April 8, 1904. That agreement, he
added, was in the interest of the other
powers as we'll as the interests Of
France and Great Britain.
M. De1casse was surprised at the
German press recriminations on the
subject of French policy in Morocco,
which was in complete harmony with
the general interests of Europe as re-
CARDS economic and commercial priv
ileges. The statement of M. Delcasse,
which was regarded as being reassur-
ing. was much applauded.
