The ship subsidy resolution was up
in the house again yesterday and the
committee on state affairs reported
for passage the original resolution of
Mr.. Soriey, advising the representa-
tives of the state at Washington, to
vote against the ship subsidy bill.
Representative Stevens OF Burleigh
again entered the breach and pre-
scented a substitute resolution, citing
the attitude of republican statesmen
favoring ship subsidy and relating
that this was a distinctly republican
policy and it was not to be expected
that democrats would favor it. After
hearing Mr.. Stevens presentation of
the case, the original resolution and
the substitute were referred back to
the committee for further action, the
members of the house not desiring to
go on record as opposed TO a distinctly

CHURCH NOT YET TO MOVE.
Dr. Mottet Says the Court Order was Merely
TO Clear the WAY.

In view Of the reports that the Church
ofthe Holy Communion, at Twentieth street
and Sixth avenue, is about to be sold. the
following statement was to-day issued by
the Rev. Henry Mottet, rector Of the church;
The original deed 10 the Church Of the
Holy Communion contained a condition
which prevented the property ever being
used except for church purposes. Although
a sale was not in any way contemplated by
the trustees. it. was thought advisable to
clear the title 10 the property while IL was
possible TO do SO. The only heir living Of
the original grantor was willing to release
her right TO the property, as evidenced by the
original deed. upon a certain confederation
which amounted to the imposing OF a hen
upon the premises by which the church
bound itself to pay to" the present heir or
her heirs a certain amount Of the net pur-
chase price received If ever the property
should be sold.
The statute requires that the consent Of
the Supreme Court be obtained before a
church corporation may sell or mortgage
any of it's real estate. and as this lien was
something in the nature Of n mortgage such
a consent was necessary. The order which
was entered on Wednesday by Justice Plat

The Mayor suggests That the Facts Demand

Mayor Mcclellan forwarded yesterday TO
Gov. Hughes the report made by the Com
missioners of Accounts Of their investiga-
ton Of Borough President Ahearn's Office.
The Mayor also sent this letter TO tho Gov
ernor:
Pursuant to instructions given BY me on
December 3, 1909. and following a request
therefor made by the President Of the Borough
OF Manhattan, the Commissioner Of Ac-
counts OF this city have submitted to ne a
report on a special examination Of the ~account
and methods Of the ONCE Of the President
Of the Borough Of Manhattan This report
and the stenographic record OF the public
hearings conducted by the commissioner
disclose conditions which. in my opinion.
demand action by you as Governor.
Although ] have frequently been held ac-
countable by the press and the public for the
government Of the several boroughs. the
Greater New York Charter vests me with no
authority or control over the Borough Presi-
dents. who are elected officials. answerable
for their acts TO you alone.
therefore transmit to you herewith the
report OF the Commissioners Of Accounts,
with an official copy Of the record. for such
action as you may deem fitting.
The Charter provides that the Governor
can remove a Borough President only after
charges have been preferred and an oppor-
~ unity TO be heard on the charges has been
given to the accused.
Mayor Mcclellan, when he was asked IL
the report OF his commissioners could be
accepted by the Governor as charges"
said: That is for the Governor to decide.
1t is not my place 10 make any recommen-
dations OF suggestions to him. consjd-
cred it 10 be my duty only to point out to
the Governor that conditions brought out
in the investigation warranted some action
on his part"
Martin W. Littleton. counsel for President
Ahearn. sent a brief "a Albany yesterday,
calling the attention Of the Governor to the
fact that his client was not allowed TO be
represented by ounse at the investigation
and was not permitted TO cross-examine
the witnesses. II is also set u in Mr..
Littleton's brief that during the three and
a half years Mr.. Ahearn has been in Office
the commissioner Of Accounts mad quar-
terly inspections OF all the books. ledgers

TO the Mayor showed that the affairs Of the
Borough Presidents office were properly
conducted.
the Mayor is as much responsible as the
Borough President for the conditions COM
planned OF In the present report.
ALBANY, July ls.-While there are no

August Belmont is senior warden Of the

that II they gave up an occasional trip to

would be made up. Henry Cornwell said
that II each of the men " up a cigar a
day the sum might be madeu up that way.
Eventually Mr.. Belmont persuaded the
meeting to indorse the extra salary. His
browning argument was that his friends
liked when they went TO church TO hear a
good speaker and you could get a better
speaker for 81 500 than for 81 500.
Mr.. Belmont was strong for having the
rectory furnished up. He said that one

when he saw the rectory. Mr.. Belmont said
that il was necessary TO have a better build
