but doubt has existed whether an en-
trance into the city would not be made
in some other manner.
The new line will operate over the
Pennsylvania tracks from Summit ave-
nue., Jersey City. where the cars emerge
from the Hudson tunnel. The Pennsyl-
vania tracks will be electrified to Har-
rison, from which point the tunnel cars
will run to the Park place terminal
in this city.
With the installation of the new sys-
tenn it will be possible to reach any
point on the subway lines in New York
without leaving shelter, as the two
tubes will use the same terminals in
Manhattan.

Pastor Takes Fling at Ministers
Who Quit Parishes for
More Salary.

PATTERSON, Feb. T7.-Divorces, mar
riages for title, the leaving of one
parish for another that pays a higher
salary and business dishonesty were
among the present day conditions
scored by the Rev. DR.. L. e. Learned,
rector of Christ Episcopal Church, of
Ridgewood, in st. Marks Episcopal
Church, this city, last night.
DIR. Learned said that If the Christian
church had abolished the abuses Of the
clergy there would have been no
reformation and it was likely that
instead of there being Catholic and
Protestant Christians at the present
time there would now be only one
great Catholic church in the world, all
it's branches working in harmony.
DIR. Learned lauded President Roose-
welt as the advocate of greater business
honesty. of fair play between capital
and labor. of a cleaner, better life in
which men strove for other things than
the mere accumulation of money.
He said thai a rector did not have
the right to leave one field for another

should first feel certain that they could
do better work in another field.
He also urged a higher ideal of moral
purity in this country. The piling UP
of the great fortunes for which
America. was famous had dulled the
moral tone of the wealthy with the re-
suit that there was little regard for the
marriage tie, there were too many
divorces and the entering into marriage
of many rich women, not for love, but
