Boston Specializing over Peculiar Move
OF Aldermen in Telephone Case.
BosroN, Dec. ia.-Mayor Fitzgerald said
to-day that at present it ia impossible for
him TO decide whether he will sign or veto
the order passed by the Aldermen yester-
day granting a franchise to the Metropoli-
tan Home Telephone Company. Speaking
of the matter this morning the Mayor said:
Il am amazed that the order should have
been passed by the Aldermen without de-
bate or a word Of explanation. The fact
that the order was passed Immediately after
election is significant
The Mayor would not explain his meaning
of the word significant.
The question OF granting a franchise has
been before the Aldermen since last May
and several hearings nave been held On the
subject. A few weeks ago the board voted
to give the petitioners cave TO withdraw
but the Aldermen afterward reconsidered
their action.
Yesuerday's action by the Aldermen has
been the subject of much comment to-day
and there are NAM unpleasant stories In
circulation as to the reasons why the Alder
men passed the order. The company re-
ceived its charter from the Secretary Of
States office on May II, 1905. The capital
stock is fixed at 5000, par value 500. A
number Of prominent Boston business men
are said TO be stockholders, and one of them
says the plan involves the expenditure OF
$40, 900 900. He says nat with the estab-
lishment Of this independent company in
Boston the way will be open to m al
New England and the Middle States with
lines independent of the existing system.

~WOODRUFF'S BEAR WINS.
The Guide who Was Bitten by Bruin Non.
Suited in His suIt for $40, 600 Damages.

HERKIMER, Dec. l4.-Judge Devendorf
non-suited the case Of William Irwin against
Timothy L.. Woodruff this morning, on
motion Of Jerome d. Cheney, who with
Senator Horace White was counsel for the
defence. Judge Devendorf maintained that
there was not sufficient evidence to make
of the defendant.
After Franklin, a guide who was the first
witness to-day, mad testified, Mr.. Cheney
arose with a motion for non-suit. His
argument was an apparent surprise to
the counsel for plaintiff. He said that the
plaintiffs own testimony showed that he
knew OF the bears ferocity and yet placed
himself in danger by going within the limit
of the strong chain which held the bear.
Plaintiff also testified, Mr.. Cheney said,
that Mrs. John Woodruff said: Billy, be
careful"
Mr.. Fitzgerald asked for a denial Of the
motion and that the case go TO the jury.
Judge Devendorf, however. was emphatic
in his statement that nc liability had been
shown on the part OF the plaintiff.
Timothy Woodruff, his wife, Mrs. John
Woodruff, and the members Of the house
party were all in court TO testify for Mr..
Woodruff, but did not get q chance to do 30.
The argument that the Jimmy bear
was known to be ugly, brought out by the
prosecution, proved h keynote on which
the defence won the non-suit. The OPP
portunity, however, of seeing the former
| Governor in the witness chair
| occupied by Chester Gillette a week before
was a keen disappointment to the specta-
tors.
Fitzgerald will petition to the Court of
Appeals for review in an effort TO get an
! appeal.

ST. PAUL, Dec. A.-TOwns in North
Dakota are appealing to the railroads to
shin in fuel. The situation is grave.
Coal in 500 pound lots has been shipped
NV express from st. Paul and Minneapolis,
a distance Of 500 miles. A cold wave and
blizzard has swept North Dakota the past
sortv-eight hours. A despatch from Glen

Everywhere in the Northwest for more

shut down and in many places the resi-
DENTS of villages are crowded into the vii

The Mayor Of Cando to-day telegraphed for
a ton Of coal to be sent by express, saying:
There is not a pound Of coal or a stick
OF wood in town; but one train has arrived

LAY DECLARATIONS APPROTED.

Npfftdl Z GOiC btSpul'H w I Nv NAN#
PARIS. Dec. H.-Among the many points
in dispute about which there have beer
statements and denials. restatements and
redenials. is the question Of whether the
Pope authorizes declarations made by
members Of the laity for services in churches
The attitude Of Cardinal Richard, Arch
bishop OF Paris. has been represented a.
favoring and equally strongly az con
demning such declarations.
The Temps tonight gives tho text OF an
opinion drafted at the arohbishopry which
shows that Cardinal Richard allows such
declarations, although it may be pointed
out tina the Pope may upset the Cardinals
decision as he upset that Of Cardinal Lecot
at the last momen The opinion ssys:
Are declarations made by third parties
a disobedience to the Pope? No, provided
they are made with the honest, upright
intention Of avoiding troubles which might
result from the present anarchioal stats
and that no claim be made in any way
whatever to NEEDLE in the pastoral exercise
of religion or TO replace in any point the
hierarchioal authority of the Church.
In the present case there has appeared
no other means of obtaining the good result
which is desired. This means has there
fore been employed as the sole possibls
expedient. 1t has been employed by two
citizens because every citizen can interest
himself on behalf of public order, m these
two being laymen are specifically unaffected
by the papal prohibition, which was an
ecclesiastical prohibition.
This prohibition stated: The clergy
shall continue services, abstaining from
any fresh formality.' To avoid contra
vening this order it suflces and u obligatory
that the text be observed In It's strict sense
and that the superior's intention be not
thwarted. The text applies only 70 the
clergy as regards its intention. This Is not
to subordinate officially the Church TO the
State. The expedient adopted has respected
the text and its intention. Hence there
has been no di~sobedience.
