10 morning customers. Some Of these
places made application too late on satur-
day All licenses 10 sell liquor expired at
midnight Saturday
The proposed amendments 70 the Raines
Law have not been enacted yet These
amendments would make II necessary for
q saloon keeper 70 get certificates from the
Health, Fire and Building Departments
before he can get q hotel license. Mr.
Healey said yesterday that II these pro-
posed amendments were made he did not
have taken out the new licenses for the
year. So far as the officials Of the Excise
bureau can estimate there will be a good
many more saloons this year than last year
The increase, Mr.. Healey said yesterday
was just about In proportion 70 the growth
leoted for the licenses was about $4,000
In Manhattan and The Bronx. The amount
collected up to midnight on Saturday was
about $4,000 more than this.

The discovery Of the ninth satellite was

The religious Minority In New York,

Il ne heukluut gNAh"iAty III w" A"AA'
A correspondent resents references
which We have made TO estimates that
about one-third Of the population of
New York is Roman Catholic in religious
belief or antecedents, and that the Jews
are nearly as many In number a. the
churchgoing Protestants, including both
communicates and other church attend
ants. His notion is that the exhibition
OF these statistics is for the purpose OF
exalting the Roman Catholic Church.
Actually, however, our authority for
the estimates is the Protestant Federation
Of Churches, and they are simply an
other among many demonstrations Of
the vast preponderance in the popula-
ton Of New York OF the foreign born
and their children. So far rs those
are Christians, the great majority Of
them are Roman Catholics, at least nomi-
nally, and Of the remainder, the chef
part, brought hither by the immigration
since 1880, are Jews.
The most important and significant
revelation made by the Federation Of
Churches, however, is not Of the divisions
Of the population in religious belief,
whether Protestant, Catholic or Jewish,
hut Of the preponderance Of unbelief,
or, az least, Of religious Indifference.

York has reason for sxultation over
