To Eliminate Disabilities
Of Roman Catholics
Passes Second Reading in The
British House Of Commons.
AsquIth Endorses It's Purpose
100000 Petition Against II.

London, May IA comprehensive
bi;i for the removal Of Roman Catho-
lie disa bilities and providing for an
alteration in the accession cath taken
by the British sovereign, was intro
duced by William Redmond in the
House CT Commons today and gave va
riety to the customary duilness OF Fri
days debate.
The Roman Catholics never nave
ceased to inveigh against the insulting
references" to certain beliefs In the
monarch's accession declaration as su-
perstitious and idolatrous, The same
opposition that hitherto has defeated
any effort to alter the oath of Access
sion again showed up today when a
petition signed by 100000 persons
against the removal of Roman Catho-
lie disabilities was handed in just be-
fore NJ. Redmond arose.
Mr. Redmond's bill not only deletes
what Is regarded as the Objectionable
portion of the oath of accession but 1t
repels the acts prohibiting residence
and the acquisition of property by the
Jasui.s and other monastic orders, and
abolishes the disqualification which
prevents Catholics from filing the Of
fee of lord chancellor of Great Brit
ain and lord lieutenant of Ireland.
Premier Asqu!ih spoke early In the
debate and gave his cordial support to
the objects of the bill. He declared that
the exclusion of Roman Catholics from
the lord CHARACTERISTIC and the lord
lieutenarcy was quite unjustifiable on
the grounds of either logic or policy.
Regarding the oath of accession the
premier said that this declaration was
dated during the worst period of Brit
ish history The language therein
could not be justified, and the time had
come to put an end to it. He suggest
ed if Parliament were opposed to the
total abolition of the declaration, that
a committee be appointed to devise a
form of words that would be mutually
satisfactory.
The bin passed its second reading by
q vote of 1873 to 1913 but as it is not q
government measure there is little
prospect of finding time to pass it into
a law at the present session. The fact
that majority Of the House Of Com
mons voted in favor of the measure.
however, is regarded as a great VIC
tory Cor the Catholics. Although SINH
lar bills have been debated on many
NJ, vious occasions, this is the first
time that one has passed it's second
reading.

THE RAILROAD CONDUCTORS.
Delegates at Boston Go to Rhode Is.
land for Shore Dinner.

Boston, May 14-Business was sus-
pended today by the Order of Railway
Conductors Of America, which is hold
ing its annual Grand Division in this
| city, while the visiting conductors and
members of the Ladies' Auxiliary de-
voted the day to pleasure seeking. At
$50 y. NJ. the delegates left for Prov
| idence on a special train provided by
the New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad. Arriving in that city the
delegates were the guests of the Prov
idence Division, $50, and were taken to
Crescent Park, where a clam bake was
provided.
The Boston Lodge of the Brotherhood
OF Railroad Trainmen were to be the
hosts this evening and had planned
special Theater party for the members
of the Ladies' Auxiliary and a Smok-
er and entertainment for the visiting
conductors.
Boston, May l4-An undercurrent of
excitement and anticipation, the usual
feeling accompanying matters of i'm
pending interest, ran through the dele
gates to the biennial Grand Division
meeting of the Order of Railway Con-
ductors at their sessions today, tomor-
row being the day upon which the cleo
tons will occur,
private caucus was held tonight
by delegates favoring a change in sew
eral of the grand officers and it was
believed that this element had suf-
ficient strength to make more interest
ing than usual the contests of tomor-
row.
For the position of grand president
now held by A. B. Garrettson of Cedar
Rapids. Ia, and who is candidate for
reelection, w. T. Brown of the Terre
Haute Division, Ind, was prominently
mentioned tonight as an anti-adminis-
tration seeker
The sessions of the body today had
much of interest to the conductors, al
though little to the general public. The
measures for insuring legislative con-
sideration of matters in which the bod
is interested were discussed and minor
details of assessment were gone over
but without definite action In connec-
ton with legislative matters, it de-
veloped today that an effort will be
made tomorrow to form legislative
committee for the entire Dominion of
Canada. with headquarters at OF
tawa.
Tomorrow's meetings and election of
officers will bring the session to a
close.
