Saratoga N Y, Nov. 9.-Mrs. Stoddard Ham
mond. OF Binghamton, president of the New
York State Federation of Women's Clubs, and
her fellow officers face crisis in the fedora
tions affairs If the announcement of Mrs. Dore
Lyon, of New York, made this noon counts for
anything. After the result of the election had
been announced and the convention adjourned
Mrs. Lyon said that she would attempt 10 form
a new club women's federation in the state
distinct from the state federation. Mrs. Lyon
plans TO make the New York City Federation
the basis of the new organization.
It will be known the Empire State Fedora
ton, Mrs. Lyon said. Several New York City
club leaders who are here say that Mrs. Lyons
attempt to divide the state federation will be
met with opposition in New York City. Before
leaving Saratoga this afternoon they predicted
that Mrs. Lyon could not succeed in obtaining
control Of enough New York City votes -.
To-days session short. This evening the
two hundred and fifty delegates left toWh' pre-
pairing to continue the fight waged here. The
first business of the morning was the report OF

Several changes were made in the bylaws. 1t
was decided to form a ninth district, which shall
comprise the counties OF Westchester, Dutchess'
Putnam Orange and Ulster. Resolutions were
adopted indorsing the Susan 3. Anthony me
mortal building at Rochester University, the
10 place books for the blind in the state Library
at Albany. -
A letter from Mrs. Minnie Madden Fiske con-
tanned an unusual appeal, decidedly out OF the
atriaal lines. Mrs. Fiske asked T-lat the Te0era-

action for the protection of cattle in shipment
from farm and ranch to market. The feoeratIoh
gave the Endorsement.

CHAINED LIKE Il DOG.
Parents of Half Witted Boy
Treated HIM Like Wild Beast.

After having been chained to a corncrib for
eighteen months, during which period he was
almost devoid of clothing and fed like wild
beast, a six-year-old boy was taken to the police
court in Flushing yesterday and turned to
the care of the Gerry Society. The boys father,
Peter Nelson, seventy-four years old. and
crippled TO be almost helpless. also
brought TO court to answer a complaint Of
cruelty to children. preferred by neighbors. Mrs.
Nelson also held on the complaint
The boy has never been named. 1t was learned
from neighbors that he has been treated as
an animal since his birth. but 1t was not until
began to keep the little fellow out of doors. Since
the beginning of the cold weather his cries have
been heard by passersby. and it upon their
complaint that detectives connected with the
Flushing police precinct visited the farm yester-
day to make Investigation. The child, who
can give expression 70 his feelings only by
grunts and gatherings, was found chained TO
a corncrib, in which a hole had been cut to ad-
nit Of his getting inside. In a corner of the crib
was heap of rags, which served a bed, and
a pan of dirty water.
The place was strewn with bones which bore
evidences Of having been gnawed as though by
a dog. The boy was jumping about on all fours,
and chartered like monkey when approached.
When liberated he artfully gave the officers the
Slip and scrambled off to the woods, defying
capture for hours Running all fours and
half erect he led the detectives a merry chase,
and when captured snapped at them like mad
dog. He appeared to be suffering from the cold.
In pantomime the child's mother tried to make
the officers understand that he was insane. The
boy was taken to court, where the man ex-
planned that the boy was half witted, and that
he left him wholly TO the of his mother.
Through interpreter the woman said the
father had the of the child. and that she
was not to blame for its condition Magistrate
Connorton turned the child over to the care Of
the Gerry Society, and held Nelson and his wife
in $500 bail for examination.
