THOUSANDS OF STRAY
CATS AND DOGS KILLED
In New York Alone 77,7O7 Were De-
stroyed Since First of Year by So
clety for Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals

NEW YORK, July 6.-Since the first
of the year 77.7O7 stray dogs and cats
have been destroyed by the efforts of
the American Society for the Proven
ton of Cruelty to Animals. Some of
these "strays" may have been infected
with rabies, the officials say. They
only surmise that, however.
Never in the history of the society
were greater efforts put forth to rid
the city of the homeless dogs and cats.
During June there were q, 1885 stray
dogs and cats 'seized, gathered and
collected" says the report of the So
eiety. This is an increase of 1855 over
the number collected in June of 1907.
Last year there were 10,629 "strays"
destroyed by the society. The number
destroyed between January 1 and June
Of the present year is 27,7S5 in excess
of those destroyed during the corre-
spending period last year.
During the fourteen years of the So
ciety's existence it has cared for or
humanely disposed of 100000 cats and
100000 dogs, which had been running
loose about the streets of New York.

ALL CHURCHES SHOULD
PAY TAXES, SAYS PASTOR
Millions of Dollars Worth Is Exempt,
and Burden Falls on Others, Is
Argument of Chicago
Man

CHICAGO, July 6.-Taxation of
church property was advocated strong
ly by Rev. A. H. Harnly yesterday in
a sermon in the Austin Baptist church.
1.-THE church of Jesus Christ" the
pastor said, will never have rendered
unto Caesar the things that are Gaze
sar's until she has paid her full quota
of taxes on all property she possesses.
state and local governments are
supported by taxes assessed upon prop
erty. The rate of tax depends upon
the amount of property assessed. The
more property in a taxing district the
lower the rate. To exempt property is
to lower the rate. To exempt property
Is to increase taxes.
Now there are millions of dollars
worth of church property that is ex-
empt from tax. The burden OF tax
upon the remaining property, therefore.
must be increased to make up the diff
ferences, and thus citizens who may
have no interest whatever in the
church and who may not care to labor
toward it's work are compelled, indi-
rectly, to do so"

emphatic terms the report that Gov

Bitter Discussion Provoked

Bitter Discussion Provoked
The Pennsylvania contests, which
involved eight seats in the city of Phil
adelphia and three in Allegheny coun-
ty, provoked probably the most bit
ter discussion that was heard before
any of the subcommittee. Charles
Berwood DAILY of Philadelphia ap-
peared for the contestants and ar
raigned Charles P. Donnelly and
Thomas B. Ryan, the leaders Of the
Guffy faction in the districts in the
bitterest manner He charged the
eight Guffy delegates were elected by
the aid of Republicans and that the
rankest frauds were perpetrated. Both
Donnelly and Ryan, who spoke in sup
port of the regular delegation, replied
in kind to the charges.
After listening to examinations and
recriminations for an hour and a half,
the subcommittee took the contests I'M
der advisement and will report to-
morrow morning.
Leaders of several of the contesting
delegations, incensed by their defeat,
charged that the subcommittee were
packed against them. Little hope was
expressed by the opponents of Sullivan,
Guffy and Murphy that they would
win before the national committee.
The matter of whether the Okla
hona delegation should be allowed
fourteen seats, as accorded by the ma
tional committee, or eighteen, as
claimed by that state, was passed
along to the credentials committee
But fourteen, however, will appear up
on the temporary roll call.
The national committee adopted a
suitable expression of sorrow for thc
death of James X Jones of Arkansas
the former national chairman.

cheering information that a straw vote
had been taken on the train en- route
here showing the entire delegation for
Towne except two, who favored John
Mitchell, the labor leader.
The Oklahoma delegation, while TAX
ing no formal action, had been can
vassed and found to stand for Towne.
Several southern delegations had also
expressed their preference for Towne,
including Alabama and Mississippi.

their man he was almost certain of
sufficient strength from outside to Sc
cure his nomination.

this course without debate.
