 "ThiS is not an easy matter to de- termine even if all are willing to di- vide. The oEly natural territorial boundary between two halves of ouH State is the Connecticut river. But the population and the strength of our Church is almost wholly on the west ern side. Eastern Connecticut is hard soil for planting our historic vine, and has but a dozen self-supporting par ishes. On the other hand, our Church population is denSeSt in the southwest ern quarter. Our largest cities, with the exception of Hartford, are also there. The second tabular statement shows how strong a, diocese could be constituted of Fairfield and New Ha- ven counties alone. More than half of our self-supporting and well-equipped parishes are there; more than half of our 'sittings or accommodations for worshippers; and more than half of our financial ability is indicated by the item of Current Expenses Qnclud- ing salaries)', which is recognized as the best basis for assessment that we have yet been able to discover.

HARBOR LINE HEARING NOT
 NECESSARY This Is Substance of Opinior Given Mayor Lee by
 City Attorney. Might Be "Safer'' to
 Have Hearing If Intent
 of Law Is In Doubt
Opinion of Former City At- torney Marr and of Alder man Gould Sustained Mayors Veto Will Res. on F'limsy Basis.

City Attorney Culliran gave Mayor Lee an opinion. to-day. to the effect that no hearing is necessary for the establishment of harbor lines when the power is granted the city by the Gen. eral Assembly to lay harbor lines with- out a hearing.
 This bears out the opinion given by Attorney James A. Marr on the sub- Ject and also the statement of Alder man Gould before the Common Coun- Gil at the time the so-called comprons l. lse line was established in place of the city harbor line
 It is expected that tsthe mayor will in- cluce the opinion of the city attorney Tn his message to $ the council this evening vetoing the compromise line.
 The only question the mayor asked of the city attorney was whether Or not the city could legally do it with :. out a public hearing
 The mayor stated this morning tha: the opinion states that the General As- sembly can delegate the power to es- tablish harbOr lines to the city. But the city attorney states that if there Is an oversight in the revised charter that it would be safer to hold hear ings in establishing harbor lines, un- less the intent of the legislature is per- fectly clear.
 The question of the liability of the city to pay damages in the case was not raised in the mayors query to the City Attorney. and therefore the opin~ ion only relates to the right of the city to establish harbor line without 6 hearing.
 Twelve votes in the common council will sustain the veto but it will require 13 votes to adopt the amended report of the harbor committee notwithstand ing the veto.
 The Mayor stated today that if his veto is sustained, the city harbor line will remain unchanged and the same as it was originally established by the Common Council.
 Asked if he would make any reeom- mendation in his veto message for the of any other line, he said he would simply inform the Aldermen that his position upon the harbor line question was unchanged and that the council was we'll aware of where he stood. The Mayor is unqualifiedly for the adoption of the government line as opposed to the city line.

ONE GOOD TURN
 DESERVES ANOTHER
John Syonoviski Helped State Convict Nemegud and Becker and Got Off Easily.

Through the testimony of John Ne megud and John Becker, who were convicted of assault last week John SynovSki, who conducts saloon at the corner of Pembroke street and Berkshire avenue was in the city court this morning on a charge of selling liquor to minors. Information of the violation came to Liquor Prosecutor Merritt through the statements of the two prisoners who said they bought the liquor with which they became in toXicated at SynOvskiS saloon. The saloon man was represented by Attor- ney J. B. Klein. Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Wilder informed the court that it was largely through the eff forts and testimony of the saloon keeper that Nemegud and Becker were convicted and that the facts in the case would never have been known had not Synovsl1i testified in the case.
 Judge Pullman, when apprised of the situation, said he thought that the case should not be nolled. The crime for which Nemegud and Becker were con- victed was the direct result of the sale of intoxicants to them after they al ready had enough. The eases which come up in the city court daily are tracea'ble to this very practice of sell ing liquor to men already intoxicated. The result is brawls at unseemly hours, after the saloons close at mid night. The judge thought the only way to remedy the evil was to enforce the law.
 He finally nolled the case on the pay ment of costs and will issue a certifi- cate which will save Synovski's license for him. Judge Pullman said he thought it was the duty of the Prose cutor to report cases of this kind, which are disclosed by evidence in the city court to the liquor prosecutor. Court Interpreter Brill was charged by At torney Klein, and also by Robert Fitz- roy, with giving the information on which the arrest was made with the comment that it was about time court interpreters quit being informers." MT. Brill denied that he had made the complaint as did also Prosecutor Mer- ritt Interpreter Brill said "I have a perfect right to make such a com plaint. if I feel like it. Any citizen has, But the trouble is I did not make the complaint and did not know any thing about it until asked to act as in terpreter in the case"

CARE OF DEPENDENT CHILDREN URGED
 BY PRESIDENT
In Special Message to Con-. gress He Recommends Bureau in Department of Interior

Washington. Feb. 15.-Governmental assistance in the care of dependent children was the appeal urged on Con gress in a special message from Presi- dent Roosevelt to-day. The message embod1es the results of the recent con- ference on the care of dependent chil- dren which assembled at the White House at the Presidents invitation.
 It recommends the establishment of a chlldren'S bureau in the department or the interior, to investigate the well rare Of the unfortunate infant mortal 1ty rate. of degeneracy, employment and all matters affecting the children of the country.
 There are few things says the message in this connection "more wit al to the welfare of the nation than. accurate and dependable knowledge of the best methods of dealing with chil- dren.'
 The President suggests also that Congress set an example to states in enacting laws for the District of Columbia and the territories.
 T deem such legislation the Presi- dent says in closing. mot only import ant for the welfare of the children i'm mediately concerned but important as setting an example of a high standard of child protection by the National Government to the several states of the Union which should be able to look to the nation for leader in such mat ters."
 The President also sent a letter with the message. in behalf of the resolu- tions committee. containing the recolu- mendations of that body.
