STEAMER TEARS HOLE
 IN LUMBER LADEN BARK
COIIlsi0m Between Lering and Seneca or the Jersey coast--NO
 Lives Lost.

Norfolk. Va, Feb. s.-After battling with hard winds and heavy seas for seventeen days, and when within a few hours of her destination, the bark Charles Loring, carrying 380,000 feet of lumber from Savannah to New York was run into and sent to the bottom last night by the Old Dominion steamer Seneca. four miles off Seagirt, N. J.
 The collision occurred in dense fog. No one was injured and no lives were lost. The wreck Is directly in the hath of coastwise navigation and is a dangerous derelict.
 It was with great difficulty that the crew of the steamer who put out in the life boats in rescuing Captain H. Debuhr and his crew of nine men from the sinking bark.
 When through the fog the Seneca was seen bearing down on the bark, there was no time for putting about. The bark was nearly torn in twain and the glass in the Seneca's dining room was shattered. A panic among the passengers of the Seneca was quelled by the officers and crew. Lifeboats were immediately put off by the steam or. The bark's cargo of lumber prob ably prevented her going down with all hands before help could reach her.
 The Loring sailed from Savannah January 17. with 6 cargo of yellow pine, valued at S1s,000 and insured. She was built twenty-five years ago and was valued at S10,00O. She was not insured. The bow plates of the Seneca were badly stove in above the water line and much glass broken, but otherwise the vessel was uninJured.

FROTHINGHAM'S ACT
GREAT MONEY LENDER JUMPS
 FROM WINDOW.
Was Under . Nervous Strain Due to Recent Reverses in His Ven- tuPes on Wall Street
 Exchange.

New York, Feb 3-Howard P. Froth- ingham. who while delirious from ner- yous breakdown. jumped from the sec ond story of his home in West Seven ty-seventh Street yesterday, died just before aid reached him.
 The death was not reported to the police until today when the coroner instituted an investigation.
 Nervous strain. due to recent re- verses in Wall Street, Is believed to have caused the despondency, which resulted in the deed. MT. Frothing- ham had passed his 18th birthday and was probably the biggest and best known loan broker in the country: lending more "call' money annually than any other man or firm
 He handled money for nearly all the large financial institutions. His pat ronage was very large and his com missions in the lending business alone are said to have amounted to more than S100,OO a year. For sixteen years he waswR member of the New York Stock Exchange but he found lending money more profitable than brokerage and devoted his time al- most entirely to it. Mir. Buckingham is survived by a widow and daughter.

BRIAND MORE LIBERAL l.
French Minister Recognizes Freedom
 of Mayors.

French Minister Recognizes Freedom
 of Mayors.
 Paris, Feb. 3.--Minister of Public Instruction and Worship Briand. after lengthy consultations with Premier C1emenceau and Minister of Justice Guyot- -Dessaigne, has taken a more extended stride toward the solution of the church difficulties than had been expected in the most optimistic ouar- ters.
 M. Briand construes the recent en- actments in the most liberal spirit and circular marked urgent" and for warded tonight to the projects of all departments for communication to the Mayors expresses this by recognizing the entire freedom of the mayors with the authorization of the municipal councils to grant leases of churches, rent free, to common law associations of clergymen. the only restriction be- ing that the duration of a contract may not exceed eighteen years with out the approval of the prefect The lessee is merely held responsible for all repairs, while the essential condition Is that the edihce shall remain attached 10 the sect by which 1t was used be- fore the separation law became effec- tive, M. Briand deals with the ques- . ton of assuring pastoral succession which he considers can best be att tained by the formation of a common law association which shall act as lessee, but he points out also that in the event of a clergyman leaving the church himself any lessee has the right under the common law to cede the lease to a third party with the consent of the lessor and provided the contract does not stlpuIate to the con- trary.
 Relative to the terms of lease. M. Briand states. that any legal clause may be inserted by mutual consent of the parties to the lease while the ecclesiastical situation of the sigma tory clergymen may be set forth with description of the powers he holds from his hierarchy. Should a clergy man. befoe signing. ,desire to consult his bishop, it Is only necessary for him 10 request a delay for that purpose, but the bishop cannot be a party to the contract and his countersignature is superfluous. as the signatory is per- sonally responsible for the carrying out of the terms of the instrument.
 A clause may be included in the lease by which it is annulled should the signatory leave the sect to which he belonged when he signed, but even when not written such a clause would be considered as existing.
 The circular. though addressed to projects and mayors. appears to be equally intended to offer advice to the clergy.

NEGROES FOR OHIO
TALK IN WASHINGTON OvE
 THEIR APPOINTMENT.
Southern Congressmen Do Not Believe Roosevelt Will Make Good on Pian to Rcbuke Senator
 F0raker.

Washington, Feb. 3.-(Speeial. )--- There Is still a great deal of talk over the probability Of the President ap- pointing a negro surveyor of customs at Cincinnati but it seems tonight as if no man can be found who has any absolute knowledge on the subject
 1t has been heralded far and wide that Mir. Roosevelt requested Booker T. Washington to recommend a man. and that he would name him for the place on account of differences that exist between the Executive and Sem ator Fvraker. The relations of the on account of the fact that the sena- tor has made 1t point to oppose most of the leading policies of the Presf- dent. But friends of the President assert with emphasis that he would not appoint a negro sQiely for the pur- pose of getting even With the Senators They argue that if he really means to appoint negroes to high places in the North and West it Is purely for the reason that he wishes to show that he Is distributing the objectionable fea- tures. because such protest was made against his appointment of ns- groes jn the South.
 The Southern Congressmen express the opinion that the President is not going to appoint any negroes in Ohio to high places. They think, he has gone far enough in that direction and some of them declare that if he actual ly attacks Republicans along that line 1t is simply a blum and thrown out with Q view of ascertaining how the proposition would be received outside of Dixie.

Soldiers Not Required to
 Attend Services.
OPPOSED TO ORGANIC LAW
Judge Advocate of Army Rules in
 the Ohio Case.
Sergeant Who Refused to Attend Catholic worship and Was Pun ished, Had Right Under Con-
 stitution to Do So.

Washington, Feb. 3.-The text of the opinion of Judge Advocate Gen. eral Davis of the army, In connection with sergeant's refusal to obey or ders at Columbus, O., barracks, to att tend Catholic services, for which re- fusal the War Department ordered the sergeant's reduction and transfer to another post shows the following question submitted to the Secretary of War by the commanding officer of the recruiting depot at Columbus bar racks:
 Ills an order directing soldier of a command by the commanding officer thereof to attend Divine worship in a church in which he was brought up and who has no conscientious scruples against attending such services so manifestly illegal as to warrant such soldier in deliberately violating the same?"
 In his opinion, Judge Advocate Gen. eral Davis called attention to the fact that Congress Is forbidden by the first amendment to the Constitution to make any law respecting an estab- lishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"
 He says that officers and enlisted men of the army have never been re- quired to attend religious services.
 q must therefore conclude that" General Davis says, while post com mander may lawfully issue such orders as he may deem necessary to secure proper observance of the Sabbath. it Is not competent for him to require of- fcers and enlisted men to attend pi- vine services. or to promulgate in- structions in respect to the observance of the iay which are in excess of, or contrary to the requirements of the fifty second Article of War.
 "As an incident of his authority as post commander. however, he may re- quire those who attend divine services to form at q designated time and place and to march to and from the place where services are to be held. In a proper nilitay manner. He may also reauire ari officer or non- commissioned ofIic ' to supervise such formation, to march the command to and from the chapel and to maintain order during the pr- gfees Of the sfrvicEF Such an order does not reduie th1 0ilfcet or non -comniiBsioned officer who receives it 10 take part in the worship. but only to see that the requirement. of the ar ticles are observed by those who vol untarily attend The case Is similar to that of an officer or non n-eommis- stoned oficer who commands the es- cort and firing party at a military funeral in which the requirements Of the drill regulations provide for par ticuiar participation in ehe religious services of interment
 "It cannot be denied that an order detailing an oficer to such duty Is a lawful order, notwithstanding the fact that the burial service be conducted by a clergyman of Another denomina- tion.''

Many of ths1 were killed in the fighting. and t said that the Honduraneans shot lie of the Nicaraguan soldiers wb ur- rendered. The Honduraneayth then came further into Nicaraguan fitory. burning and destroying pr Efty and committing robberies
 President zeIaya of N agua en- tered an energetic pre regarding the action of this body Y <Honduranean soldiers and demanded idemnity from Honduras. To this President Bonilla of Honduras replied by offering to arr bitrate the matter. This proposal was accepted by President Zalaya, who sent a representative to Salvador. where court of arbitration is now in ses- sion to conduct negotiations on this basis.
 The people of Nicaragua, however. are far from content with this way Of settling the invasion of their territory and the killing of their countryman. They have arisen and demanded repara- ton for this outrage by Honduranean troops upon the soldiers of Nicaragua and upon the property of Nicaraguan citizens.

Paris. Feb. 3--only the presence of the police prevented g riot ai the nean olo re-christened 'The Church of the Holy Apostles" where the French Apostolic Catholic Church was inaugurated to-
 The annohncement of the attempt to organize a schism had stirred up the militant Catholics who organized hos tile reception with the intention of breaking up the services Hand oiIis were distributed, including the words of the popular air. describing Arch bishop vilette, head of the independent Catholic movement, in AmArica as an American monkey, whom M. Briand. minister of public instruction and wor. ship, desired to make a French pope.
 Several thousand persons were out side the church and scores penetrated the already crowded church. 1nterrup- tfons were commenced as soon as Fath- CT Roussin, the pastor of the church. began his sermon welcoming the ap- preaching Catholic independence and the dawning of the day when all the churches of Jesus Christ will unite in Christian charity.
 When he thanked Archbishop villette for aiding the French Catholics in es- tablishing the first church, saying he was consecrated by the Patriarch of Antioch. the successor of St. Peter. a shout in the rear of the edifice He Is excommunicated.' was the signal for a general tumuit and Father Roussin fin ally was compelled to ask that the police be summoned.
 About fifty persons were expelled from the church and quiet was practi- cally maintained until Archbishop vil- atte apeared on the altar in the robe and mitre of archbishop. Instantly the din began again, with redoubled force. almost drowning his words. Neverthe- less he calmly continued, saying he had been missionary for thirty six years, but no savage tribe had ever prevented him speaking and concluding Even to those who interrupt and re- vile me. l say will not exconmuni- cate. I wish you no i'll, God be with you Amen"
 A score or more, of other persons were then ejeeked before Arch bishop Vilatte proceeded with the celebration of pontifical mass, in which he ohserv- ed the Catholic rites During the el- ovation of the Host. the militant Cath olics, instead of kneeling, climbed into their chairs. In the meantime the po- lice had cleared the streets outside the church and there were no demon- strations as the. congregation left
