SRI. LUKE,s OLD SEXTON OUT.
Who spent Two Years Emptytng the Old
Downtown Graveyard.

Thomas Brennan, native of the old Amer
lean section Of the own known as Green
wich Village. has resigned as sexton OF
st. Luke's Protestant Episcopal Church,
at Convent avenue and West 1Ilst street.
He had been sexton eighteen years and a
member Of the church forty years, and the
cause of his resignation, according to his
friends, was the anita g%onistic attitude of
a large number of the new members OF
the congregation. The old parishioners
stuck by him and the pastor of the church,
the Rev. Dir. John T. Patey, gave hin fare
well tearfully.
The friends of the sexton say that william
c.. Lester, who is q vestryman Of the church,
forced the sexton out. Early in the winter
Mr.. Lester had a red velvet carpet put in
the middle aisle Of the church, in which
there were three old fashioned floor regis
tors conveying heat from the basement.
The sexton and the man who laid the carpet
suggested that to get the heat into the
middle of the church it would be necessary
70 cut holes in the carpet over the registers.
Mr.. Lester objected, according TO the sex
ton. II worshippers along the middle
aisle complained of cold, A coterie put the
responsibility on the sexton. He says
that he saw that the odd were against
him and he resigned.
Mr.. Brennan said yesterday that he had
gone up from his old home in the Ninth
ward .twhere his children had been educated.
at the request of the Rev. Isaac II. futile,
pastor of the original st. Luke's, now a
chapel of Trinity. That was in 1892
Trinity would not buy the old st. Luke's
until all the 800 bodies of the old Ameri.
can pensioners that had been buried
in the graveyard had been removed. The
sexton, who is an undertaken, spent nearly
two years e%xhuining the bodies, receiving
no extra pay for his labor. For all this
work and his subsequent services to the
church, he says. he got 1924 a day. Out
of his he was recently asked to hire an
assistant to pay for the cleaning of the new
church. This is one Of the things that
prompted him to and in his resignation.
Vestryman Lester said yesterday: There
has been no trouble in the church at all.
Mr.. Brennan has not been cleaning the
church properly, and we told him so. He
got mad and resigned. He thought that
we would ask him to stay, but we did not.
That is all there is to it."
Mr.. Brennan has a letter of high COM
mendation ron the Rev. DR.. Patey.

WOMEN DEMOCRATS DINE.
Mrs. Lease and Poem Features OF Their
Jefferson Celebration.

The Women's Democratic Club got ahead
OF the male organization in holding a Jeffer-
son dinner this year. The women held
theirs last night at the Hoffman House,
with the true Jehersonian simplicity. There
wasn't any wine, and only a few men
just enough to provide one for each table.
The club was only started in the last
campaign, but, of course, having survived
that, it had to hold a jefferson dinner. Alton
B. Parker, Mayor Mcclellan and Comp
troller Metz were all invited to talk, and
all sent nice letters explaining just why
they weren't present.
Mrs. John Sherwin Crosby presided.
and from time TO time as the dinner pro-
crossed called or Il table for a sentiment
Then a woman or the one man at the table
would get up with either a quotation from
jefferson or a speech. Mrs. Phyllis Lever
idge responded for her table with a poem
that told Of the warnings Of the Demo-
cratic woman. 1t ran:
You may not infer it-just from our looks

We'd grind them TO mincemeat and then bake

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Lease, gowned in

made some of the members move uneasilv
She said that the women had begun TO ask

she went on, that a Rockefeller baby is

Lease, evidently expecting to be told NO"
The toastmistress nodded her head affirm
atively.
"Then I will conclude, said Mrs. Lease
with a freezing look,
Mrs, Crosby finally got started on the
regular toast list and called on a woman
who was down or the toast list as tho

Miss lendes that was her name talked
on J~effersonian women She announced
that women had inspired the Declaration of

SOFT COAL OPERATORS FIRM.
Think That a Strike in Anthracite Fields
VIII lie Disastrous to the. Men.

1ND1ANApoIIs, Ind, April 2.-Though
the strike of the bituminous miners In the
fields of Indiana, Illinois and Ohio has been
formally inau gu rated and the miners have
removed all their tools and other belong
ings from the mines. indicating that they
are prepared to stand by the demand made
by their organization, there are no signs
of a break among the operators who opp osed
the increase in wages at the recent con-
ferenoes.
The idea Of the operators is that the con-
duct of a strike in the anthracite field, which
they regard now as certain, will prove a
heavy burden upon the miners organiZa-
ton, for it will be the few men at work
who will have to support the many idle ,
and it may be that a few days may bring
a change lnLthe policy of the organization.

Confirmation of New Supreme
Justice is Held Up
CULBERSON STOPS DEAL
Thinks Bonaparte Is Not Fit Man 20
Prosecute Trusts Because of His
Attitude In Favor of
Combinations.
STOPS DEAL

Washington, December 10.-Opposition to
Charles j. Bonaparte as attorney general
prevented the confirmation of William II.
Moody as associate justice Of the supreme
court of the United States when his nom
nation was called up today in executive
session of the Senate.
The opposition to Mr. Bonaparte was
based upon the speech made by him in
Chicago in September, 1899 before the
conference held there TO consider the trust
QUESTION. In that speech Mr.. Bonaparte
declared that legislative action in re-
straint of combinations was undesirable.
When the Moody nomination was report
ed by the committee, Senator Culberson
called attention to the fact that the po-
sition he is TO Vac9te will be filled by Mr..
Bonaparte. and he then read extracts
from the Chicago speech in support of an
argument that Mr. Bonaparte is not quail
flied to take the responsibility of enforc-
ing antitrust laws.
Senator Knox, formerly attorney gen
eral, said that he had talked with Mr..
Benaparte and had found him thoroughly
in sympathy with the administration i'll

operate i'm restraint of trade lie also re-
marked that probably there were few
had not undergone some decided changes
on many great questions since 1899, when
conditions went far different from what
they are today.
Senator Rayner started to reply to this
speech, when Vice President Fairbanks
observed that the nomination before the
Senate was that of Mr. Moody and not
of Mr. Bonaparte. This had the effect of
curtailing the experimenting, but Senator
Teller said that it was customary for all
nominations to go over one day after be-
ing reported from committee, and he
therefore objected TO further considera-
ton.
large number of nominations were
confirmed. Among them were:
Maj. Gen. Arthur Macarthur, to be lieu
tenant general.
Brig. Gen. J. M. Lee, to be major gen.
eral.
Capt. John J. Pershing, to be brigadier
general.
Col. E. A. Darlington, to be inspector
general with the rank of brigadier gen
eral.
Col. c. C. Sniffin, to be paymaster gen
eral with the rank of brigadier general.
Col. Arthur Murray, to be chief of ar
tillery with the rank of brigadier general.
Gen. r. NJ. O'Reily, to be surgeon gen.
eral with the rank of brigadier general.

Vatican Declines to Comment.

Rome, December 1O.-Since the recall of
sador to Austria Hungary last March,
several attempts have been made to in
duce the vatican authorities to set forth.
what pressure il any had been brought to
bear upon them from President Roose-
Welt to make Archbishop ireland a car
dipal, and today the vatican declared
semi-officially it could make no such
statement, as President Roosevelt had
never asked anything through official
channels. 1t was explained that while sew
eral Americans who declared they spoke
with President Roosevelts authority had
attempted to influence the giving of the
red hat, they do not agree ON the arch
bishop thus to be honored.
The vatican authorities do not con-
slider that President Roosevelt was re-
sponsible for the recommendation.
