JEWS GIVE TO HOSPITAL
AS YOM K1PPUR ENDS.
Generous Contributions at Synagogue
for Beth Israel and to the Poor.
Feasting Last Night.

Yom Kippur. or the Day of Atonement,
the greatest of Jewish holy and fast days,
closed at sunset last evening, after which
the people had feasting in their homes.
Stores and other places of business were
closed from sunset Tuesday to sunset yes
terday, and many of the orthodox people
prayed in the ~synagogues on the Hill for
hours for themselves and for the dead.
Sermons were preached and collections
were taken up for hospitals, the poor m
the orphans.
At the Anshe Russia Synagogue, In West
Kinney street, opposite Prince street.
Rabbi Brodski collected 5000 for the Beth
Israel Hospital. At the temple In Wash
ington street, where there is a reformed
congregation, Rabbi Solomon Foster col
lected more than $1,000. Collections were
made in the %synagogues and in halls where
societies held services.
Joseph Okin, president of the board of
directors of the hospital, made an appeal
with the rabbis at the temple and at the
West Kinney street to subscribe
literally. He said he mi have all the
subscriptions paid to him within ten days,
as he has to meet heavy obligations, liens
on the hospital property.

EXEMPTIONS
SAY CHURCHES SHOULD
BEAR TAX BURDEN.
Pointed Out, However, That Such a Step
Would Prove to Be a
Boomerang.

The Newark Tax Board has made up
the total value of properties exempt
from taxation in the city for the year
1907, under the laws of the state, at
$35,074, 900.
This total Is made up as follows:
Properties owned by the city $40, 540,-
900; public school property, 81, 2s9, 600;
churches and charitable institutions,
So, 1896, 900; cemeteries and graveyards.
So, 005, 900; parochial and other school
properties, $4,000 DO.
The new City Hall building and the
land purchased for the site added a
couple of millions to the total of the
city's holding of exempt property.
Some who do not profess religion con-
tend that church properties and ceme-
teries and g~raveyards should be taxed
the same as other properties, m order
to increase the annual revenus of a
municipality. But those who stand for
the exemption of all church property
and charitable institutions from taxa
ton say hat to put a tax upon them
would be making the great majority of
taxpayers pay double taxes, as the
churches and charitable institutions are
built and supported by the voluntary
subscriptions of people.

ACTRESSES WIN SUIT
CE-CHANCELLOR DECIDES
AGAINST UNCLE.
Their Mother Had Given House in Broad
Street, Newark, to Lawyer Sher-
lock without Consideration.

Mrs. Sara Gordon and Mrs. Jane s.
LeSoir. the daughters of former Captain
George Schenck, of the First Regiment,
who deserted his wife in 1889, who brought
suit against their uncle, Robert A. Sher-
lock. a New York lawyer, to recover the
property at 1876 Broad street, this city,
given to him by their mother, Jennie Ce-
celia Schenck, prior to her death, May 0,
1905. were in Vlce-Chancellor Stevens's
court today to listen to MI. Sherlock's ex-
PLANTATION of the causes leading up to
their mothers gift of the house n lot.
Mr.. Sherlock went on the stand in his
own defense. He insisted throughout that
while it was true he prepared these pa
pers. he acted merely ms a stenographer
for A. c.. Streitwolf, jr., to whom he had
referred his sister when she told him she
wanted to give him her house.
At the conclusion of the defendants
cross-examination, the case was submitted
and Vice-Chancellor Stevens decided that
the conveyance made by Mrs. Schenck to
her brother was void.
Mrs. Gordon and her sister, Mrs. LeSoir,
were formerly well known in social and
musical circles in this city. Mrs. LeSoir
was formerly soprano at the cathedral.
MRS. Gordon began life as a stenographer
in the office Of Thomas N. McCarter,
father of her present counsel. The two
compliments are still quite young, despite
the fact that in 1889 they became mem
bers of Augustin Days theatrical COM
pany.
The Broad street property is valued at
about $500 and the compliments say at
the time of their mothers death 1t was
furnished at considerable expense. Mr..
Sherlock has had possession of the resi-
dence since Mrs. Sehenck's death.

CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY
NOT WANTED IN JAPAN.
Mikado's Government Reported to Be
Decidedly Opposed to Project
for Establishing It.

LONDON, Sept. 19.-The Globes CORE
spondent at Rome says that difficulties OF
@ somewhat serious nature have arisen
between the Japanese government and the
Vatican over the projected establishment
of a Roman Catholic university at Toxic.
The correspondent says 1t Is understood
that Archbishop o'Connell, of Boston. rec
tor of the American College at Rome, will
be intrusted with a special mission to
Toxic. in the hope of overcoming the diff
culties.
The establishment of a Roman Catholic
university in Japan was authorized in a
communication which the Pope sent to the
chief Of the Jesuits on February 8 last, in
trusting the Anglo-American Jesuits with
the work. 1t was remarked that this
would tend to counteract French influences
in Japan.
Archbishop o'Connell, at that time bishop
of Portland, Me-, visited Japan In 1906,
when he was the bearer Of a letter from
the Pope to the Mikado. He was received
with great distinction at the Japanese
court and received high honors during his
stay In Japan. The Emperor conferred
upon him on the eve of his departure the
Great Cross of the Order of the Holy
| Treasure.
1t was understood that the letter he
brought from the Pope suggested that n
Papal nuncio be sent to Toxic and a Jap
anese representative to the Vatican.

SCHOOL FOR CONSULS
Is ESTABLISHED.
State Department to Give New Men of
Consular Service Thirty Days
Training.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-No more
green consuls are to be sent abroad to
represent America if the plans of Nthe
State Department, which have just
been put in practise, realize expecta-
lions. Ever since the establishment of
the consular service it has been GUS
tomary to allow a newly appointed
consul thirty days with pay before
leaving America for his post. A room
in the department has been equipped
as a complete working American con-
sulate, suitable to ransact the business
of an American consul in any part of
the world, civilized or uncivilized.
Appointees are no longer permitted
to spend that thirty days period in
their own way, but are required to
report every day at the State Depart
ment for duty and to spend a certain
number of hours in this model con-
sular Office, receiving instructions and
acquainting themselves with every
practical detail Of a consul's daily
work. The best of instruction is pro-
vided.

SAL00MKEEPER UNDER BAIL
Wanted Hearing, but Court Wa Con-
WINGED That He Merited Punishment.

There was no hearing in the case
of Joseph Keudzienski, SO years old, a
saloonkeper at 1865 Belmont avenue,
who lives at 1866 Livingston street, and
who was arrested with his wife, Eme-
liza, and fifteen men at the latter place
Sunday for selling without a license.
When the case was called Monday
the saloonkeeper, through his counsel,
asked for a hearing for today. At
first the complaint was made out on a
city ordinance blank, but when the
defendant and his representative
reached the court they found that the
complaint had been changed to hat
of an offense against the State law for
selling without a license. Judge Herr
said that he realized that there was
sufficient evidence to warrant hold
ing the defendant for the Grand Jury,
and fixed the bail at $500, which was
furnished.
When a sextet of Fourth Precinct
men descended on the place Sunday
AFTERNOON they found the proprietor
and his wife serving drinks to the
crowd in the kitchen and rear yard.
The police had their hands full at first,
and were forced to threaten the gang
before they submitted to arrest. The
patrol wagon made two trips to the
scene, a block from the station.

MORE ARRESTS
ORDERED FOR
FRAUDS
Detectives Have Warrants
for Men Connected With
Pennsylvania Scandal.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Sept. 19.-Law-
yers for the commonwealth today
began the preparation of the present.
ment to the Grand Jury of Dauphin
County against the fourteen men in
olved in the capitol scandal, for whose
arrest warrants were issued yesterday
by direction of Attorney General Todd.
The Grand Jury will meet Monday, and
the attorneys expect to submit the
cases during the week. and follow up
this action with a request for a speedy
trial of all those who have been in
dicted.
Warrants are in the hands If detec-
tives for the arrest of Congressman H.
Burd Cassel, of Marietta, executive Off
Ger of the Pennsylvania Construction
Company; James M. Shumaker, of
Johnstown, former superintendent of
grounds and buildings; George F.
Payne, of Philadelphia, and his part
ner, Charles G. Wetter, builders of the
capitol; Stanford B.. Lewis, of Philadel-
phia, active assistant of Joseph M.
Huston, architect; George K. Storm
and John G. Neiderer, of New York,
stockholders in the bronze company
which manufactured the lighting fix
lures OF the capitol.
A detective has gone to Johnstown
to serve the warrant upon Shumaker,
who is too i'll to leave his home. Shu-
maker has arranged with the attorney
general to furnish $50, 900 bail at that
place. A detective also went to Ma
rietta to serve the warrant upon Con-
gresham Cassel, who will also be re-
quired to furnish 100000 bail. The
amount of bail required of Payne and
Wetter has not yet been fixed, although
it is doubtful if it will be less than
$50. 900. Storm and Neiderer will each
be required to furnish $4,000 ball. The
fact that the State brought specific
charges instead of making mere
blanket accusations, came al a dis
agreeable surprise to the accused men.
The encouragement said today there
is no truth in the rumor that former
Governor Pennypacker, who was presi-
lent of the board of grounds and build
ings during the construction and equip
ment of the capitol, is to be arrested.
No information has been made against
Mr.. Pennypacker, and unless plans are
changed he will not become involved in
the capitol suit.
