RIPS NEWBURG BOARD.
Charities Report Says "Apparent
Criminal Neglect" Killed Boy.

Albany Feb. 5.-The State Board of Charities
made public to-day the report of its committee
on almshouses, which criticses the management
OF the city and town almshouse and the chill
dren's home OF Newburg. The report recon-
mends that the District Attorney of Orange
County be requested to inquire into and if pos
sible. fix the responsibility for the apparent
criminal neglect leading TO the death of boy Of
seven years at the children's home" and also
recommends a single headed charities commits
sion for that city.
After comparison which shows that the per
capita cost of maintenance In the Newburg
almshouse IA the last year was greater than In
many other counties. the report says:
One reason for this unfavorable showing is the
method OF purchase. The aims commissioners
seem TO have parcelled out their purchases at
retail among favored merchants in violation of
their bylaws, which require purchases to
be made at wholesale and competitive bids.
From the inspectors reports 1t appears clear
that the commissioners themselves in violation
OF law sold supplies to the institutions under
their control and participated in the profits of
the trade. The cost OF maintenance in
creased also by the eXtravagant habits of the
commissioners. The reports show that special
dinner served for them at each regular
meeting and that Injuries including wines,
whskey and cigars. were purchased for their
benefit.

NEW MOVE FOR DELAY.
RESOLUTION NOT PUT IN.
Senate Finance Committee to Isk
for KHburn Information.
tRy Telegraph to The Tribune. J


Albany Feb 5-No resolution calling on the
Governor for the information on which he pAseu
his findings on the Kilburn charges was ihti0
duced in the Senate tonight Instead the SCI"
ate Finance Committee. which is now III ch"' sc
OF the resolution passed by the Assembly, can
ing for an investigation Of the Banking Depal'-
ment and its methods, will ask the Governor TOT
this information. Then it will discuss the ma
terial so obtained. and act on the resolution
sfterward.
This policy will enable the finance committee
or rather the few Senators who are opposed TO
an investigation. TO delay the resolution ana any
necessary action for from a week TO three
weeks II may unless the public demand Ior
the inquiry becomes too insistent 10 be porhe'
result in restricting their action 70 request Tor
an investigation only OF these charges 1t may
even mean that they will determine no invesu-
cation is necessary.
The meeting of the finance committee to-mor-
row will result I'm the preparation of a message
the Governor asking that he transmit TO the
committee all the material at his disposal bear
ing on the charges preferred against Superin-
tendent Kilburn in connection with the German
Bank and the Merchants Trust Company cases.

committee even may find il necessary TO have
hearings, which may be attended by depositors

are endless. apparently.
Meanwhile. the Governor has expressed
strongly his desire TO be freed from any sus-
picion of collision with those who are fighting
the resolution and tonight declared his BELIEF
that a legislative investigation would be held.
Whether a few Senators can hold out against
public opinion long enough TO make lineup on

Great Churches to Mere.,

The latest consolidation Of Protes.
tant Episcopal churches in Manhattan
is likely to be that Of All Souls and
the Archangel, keeping the title of the
one and the building of the other. All
Souls was the -.nthon Memorial, and
a mission Of meager resources whef
Rev. R. H. Newton took charge ini
1867; that remarkable orator and lib
eral thinker made it a center of great
religious interest, and of so peculiar
a congregation that his successor in
1902 did not succeed in holding it; SO
that it has run down. There are two
other struggling churches Of the de.
nomination that expect to get helped
by the consolidation; and the new
All Souls would then be in st. Nicho-
las avenue.
