October the question OF increasing the
pay of magistrates from s.. 900 to 5000.
Most of the magistrates want the increase,
but at the meeting of the board Monday

trate Butts were opposed to asking for an
increase.
The question came up drought the read

time for asking for more money was mop

that with an experience of five and half
years In the municipal court he could say
that there was no comparison between the
work Of a magistrate and that of munich

BLAMEs PRESIDENT.
Baltimore Preacher Charges Fair
banks Trouble to Roosevelt.

BALTIMORE, October 3-The blame for
the defeat Of Vice President Fairbanks
as lay delegate to the Methodist Episcopal
conference has been placed squarely on
President Roosevelt by Rev DIR. Charles
A. Jones. pastor of the Monroe Street
Methodist Church of this city.
DR.. Jones. in a remarkably blunt letter.
which he sent Monday to the President,
declares that Mr.. Fairbanks has been re-
tired to private life by his defeat, and that
Mr.. Roosevelt is responsible.
The letter follows In part:
That Mr.. Fairbanks Is no longer a presi-
Dental candidate. or even a vice presiden-
tial possibility. can no longer be doubted.
The laymen's convention of his own state
and conference have refused to send him
to the general conference to be held here
In Baltimore next May. which kills all of
his prospects of said nomination.
Whether he is guilty of the gross i'm
propriety of using intoxicants as bever-
age, SO Objectionable to our church, may
be an open question. but Methodists largely
believe the report. Mr.. Fairbanks sowed
the wind and he reaped the whirlwind.
You were the cause of his defeat Mr..
Fairbanks dinner was given In your honor.
You are reported as ordering what Is
called the Fairbanks cocktail" Mr.. Fair
banks had the ingredients In his home
and granted your wish. This incident re-
tires him to private life.
Get into line, Mr.. President. Be on time
for the next tidal wave Of prohibition that
will sweep down upon this blessed land
and break through all barriers that stand
In the way of its onward rush to victory.
The canteen! The canteen! If it Is to
be restored as formerly, when our boys
In blue were made bartenders, then. by
the grace of God, the republican and the
democratic parties will meet their Waterloo,
and a prohibition candidate sit in your
chair.
Dr. Jones has declined to make any state
ment regarding his letter. and expressed
great surprise that 1t had become public

FREE LIBRARIES AT BALTIMORE.
Carnegie Gives a Half Million for
Branches Without Conditions.

BALTIMORE, October 3.-Baltimore is to
have more free libraries. Mayor Mahool be-
ing informed recently by Gen James A
Gary, president of the board Of trustees OF
the Enoch Pratt Free Library, that Mr.
Andrew Carnegie has notified the trustees
that he will give 100000 Internationally
for the establishment of additional libraries

at the action of the retired ironmaster and
philanthropist.
Gen. Gary stated that the trustees will
start at once to erect and equip additional
branch libraries all over the city: Three OF
the new libraries according to Gen. Gary,
will be completed by next summer.
In addition to the statement of the gift
II Mr. Carnegie, Gen. Gary asked the board
Of estimates for $4,000 for the equipment
of the libraries, the money to come out of

The library trustees were notified about

Of the branches to provide for the main
tenance of the libraries
The matter was referred to City Solicitor
Bruce. His opinion was that the city did
not have the authority to appropriate
money for the library sites, as the Enoch
Pratt Free Library was a private corpora
ton and In no way connected with the mu-
nicipal government. He further stated that
the matter would have to be passed upon
by votes Of the citizens.
Later. however, the city council passed
an ordinance accepting the gift. and Mr..
Carnegie agreed to the terms of the ordi-
nance. Thereupon he notified Gen. Gary a
few days ago that he had placed the money
at the disposal of the board Of trustees.
The ordinance accepting the gift relieves
the city of a binding legal obligation to
maintain the libraries, but morally they
will be cared for by the city.
Mayor Mahool said yesterday. though,
that from what Gen. Gary had told him the
gift Of Mr.. Carnegie Is absolute.
