Saloon-keeper Held in Bail for
Violation of the Bishops
Law.

i. Peter King, a saloon-keeper in pusi-
ness at 404 Market street, was held in
$500 bail for the Grand Jury by Judge
Howell in the Third Precinct Police
Court today, charged with Sunday
selling.
Complaint was made by a citizen
yesterday afternoon that Kings place
was noisy. Captain Christie sent Pa
trolmen Dunn and Gray and Plain
clothesmen Miller and Byrne to the
place. They told the court hat they
found fourteen men in the back looms
drinking and brought them TO the sta
ton in two wagons.
Three witnesses testified this morn
ing that they had bought liquor from
the bartender, Michael Breen, yester-
day afternoon, but that King himself
not present. Kings defense was
that there had been no selling in the
saloon proper. but Judge Howell
Showed that the bishops" c em-

Boys Save Themselves on
Flooded Road Through AMI
NAL That ,Periled Them.

The treacherous d~uicksands of Nor
ris County near Morristown nearly
killed 17-year-old Wilbur zaiser and
his school chum, Samuel Thorne, as
they drove to the Lackawanna station
in Sterling last Saturday night to escort
home Henry c. Zaiser, an engrayer at
1872 Market street, this city.
They drove into a water-flled road
way a short distance from the house.
Suddenly the horse plunged into a ditch
at the side of the roadway, sinking un-
til his head alone was above water,
dragging the wagon after him.
Both young men were thrown from
the wagon, but managed to grasp the
harness.
Hampered as they were by heavy
clothing. young Zaiser and his friend
had great difficulty in keeping their
heads above the water, SO deep was it.
They finally cut the horse loose and
reached the submerged roadway by
clinging to the animal. It was fully an
hour, however, before they reached
safety, having to fight their way foot
by foot through the water, after sink
ing to their necks in the depressions of
the road.

REVISE STATES
MARRIAGE LAWS,
MINISTER'S PLEA
Take Firm Stand That Licenses
to Wed Should Be Pro-
cured.
WANT UNIFORM LAW IN
EFFECT FOR THREE STATES
Bethany Presbyterian Pastor
Presents ResOInti0n-Ass'n
Head to Draw Final One.

In accordance with desires of the
members of the Ministerial Association
Of Newark and vicinity, a resolution
was presented to that body at it's meet
ing in the First Presbyterian Church
today asking that legislation be secured
making a marriage license necessary,
and also that the law should be uni
form in New Jersey, New York and
Pennsylvania.
In presenting the resolution the Rev.
Albert N. Stubblebine, pastor of the
Bethany Presbyterian Church, said
that in some places the contracting
were able to get their licenses
and be married by night. He did not
offer any time limit to be incorporated
in the revision of the laws.
The Rev. James l.. Vance, pastor of
the North Reformed Church, was in
favor of at once sending the original
resolution to the Legislature. 1t was
to follow the course laid down
and allow the final resolution to De
by a committee appointed by the
president.
The resolution reads as follows:
Resolved, That this association
would put itself on record as strongly
such revision of the marriage
as will make necessary the Sc
curing of a license by the contracting
prior to the marriage ceremony,
said license to be issued by the proper
officer without unnecessary delay to
those desiring marriage.
THAT we feel it desirable that uni
form legislation on this subject should
be secured in the three States of New
Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. =
THAT the president appoint a COM
mittee of one member from every de-
nomination represented in this ass'o-
to cooperate with similar COM
from other bodies in this be-
half.

SMITH AND DUNBAR
WIN BOWLING TITLE.
Favorable Verdict Rendered in
Case of Eastern Bowlers

CINCINNATI, Feb. 17~.-Although
they had appeared as substitutes for the
National Bowling Association, Cham
pions James Smith and Alexander Dun
bar, of the Corinthians, New York,
have won the International two-men
championship. They had defeated the
champions of the Canadian, the Ameri-
can and the Western bowling ~associa-
lions, but their final victory depended
upon the decision of a protest that was
filed against them on Saturday. The
National association champions were
unable to compete and had designated
Smith and Dunbar, who were their
team mates in five-men team contests.
to take their place.
Protest vas filed against the entrance
of any except the actual champions in
the contest. President Hermann,
however, decided today that the
protest against Smith and Dun
bar does not stand. In his
decision Mr.. Hermann declared that
any congress or bowling association
had a right to be represented in this
tournament and could designate MEM
bers of the organization to participate
in the championship events of the
tournament.

law.

PATTERSON, Feb. 17.-This town,
prime defer of the Bishops law, had a
dry Sunday yesterday. Every place
where intoxicants are sold was closed

port on the condition Of every saloon
on his post. Restaurants were forced
to stop serving intoxicants with meals.
AT midnight the saloon men had to
throw open any doors or screens that
hid back or side rooms from public
view. Chief Bimson, of the police, told
all the saloon men who sought his adj
vice as to screens that the law must be
obeyed, and while he would not start
any spectacular partition or screen
wrecking crusade. he would have every
place selling liquor inspected from the
outside, and 1t any hooks existed that
could not be seen he would let the
owner have time In which to expose
them.

RECTORs OPPOSE
PLAN FOR UNION
WITH CATHOLICS
Rev. Miller, of the House of
Prayer, BIames Laxity
of Discipline.
ONLY ONE PER CENT. IN
MOVEMENT, 1T IS SAID
Attack by the Rev. Elliot White
Stirs Interest Among Clergy
and Laity.

The idea of uniting the Protestant
Episcopal Church with the Roman
Catholic Church, as projected by some
Episcopal clergymen recently, and
which was attacked by the Rev. Elliot
White, rector of Grace Episcopal
Church, yesterday, has excited consid-
cradle interest among all members of
as those of other denominations, be-
sides the Iaity of the Episcopal Church.
Referring to Father Whites sermon,
the Rev. Father John S. Miller, of the
House of Prayer, made the following
statement this morning.
THE rector of the House of Prayer
agrees entirely with the statement of
the rector of Grace Church, as printed
in THE STAR OF today. He has no
sympathy with the movement of
the few churchmen who have launched
the pro-Roman organization. He is
strongly convinced of the flrmness of
the foundation upon which his vocation
as a priest of the Church of God rests.
and of the impossibi1ity of outward
union with the Church of Rome, under
the conditions which that church will
impose.
Those who are promoting these ideas
are doing three things: They are dis
.crediting themselves; they are injuring
their brethren who do not agree with
them, but are classed with them; and
they are inviting disaster for them
selves by suggesting a union with the
Church of Rome that will demand their
complete submission
He also said that he regarded the
movement as the result of laxity of
discipline in the Episcopal Church.
Father White said yesterday that
his predecessor in the parish had ex-
pressed himself on this point, and hat
he was heartily in accord with those
views. Not more than l per cent. of
the Episcopal clergy were represented
in the gathering that agreed to unite
with the Roman Catholic Church.
1.-THE number of our clergy" he said,
"who took part in forming the Anglo
RomantUnion is small. For, every one
in favor of such a thing there are fifty
against it."
1t was not a new thing. he said, this
attempt to unionize with Rome. Then
he went on:
why is 1t that all OF a sudden these
theories have obtained such increased
following? Is it due to dissatisfaction
with the church's .formularies? To de-
feots IN her faith? To doubts of her
orders? The clergy who have gone
into this movement are not in doubt
concerning these things. The fault lies
with the gross fostering of error and
laxity of Episcopal discipline"
