 Among the goods found were one ladys brown dress; three gold watches, two of which were gentlemen's and the other lady's;, six or eight boxes of silken thread; several bundles of silk twist; several pairs of women's long white kid gloves; small lady's put ses, 12 silk colored neckties, and a number of wide rolls and narrow rolls of fine grade of silk ribbon.

LOOKS UPON INCIDENT
 AS MERE TRIFLI
fspeciaf from United Press.)

Rome, Feb. 11.-"My feelings have not been hurt il the slightest by the Vatican's cancellation of my appoint ment to call upon the Pope" said President of the United States. today, ss he busted himself with preparations for his departure tomorrow for Ber- lin. '
 ''I look upon the incident as trffling," {" MT. Fairbanks continued "and wou. d really have passed it altogether were it not that the United Press has taken up the matter and thereby aroused a general discussion. I think I appre- ciate the position in wh oh the Pope was placed and l. am not at all dis posed to feel resentful over my fail- ure to have an audience with him.
 Were the whole thing to do over, l think I, would act just as I have. I certainly would not have paid the great Methodist Church and it's rep resentatlves in Rome the gratuitous insult of refusing to address the local church after making an appointment to do so, merely to preserve what might be called my eligibility to call at the Vatican.
 "I am sorry that the incident has re- suited in stirring up feeling between ProteStants and Catholics. The Vat ican has certain rules that it deems to be proper regarding the Pope's re- ception to public men and I think we should assume that it knows what rules are best in the government of it's actions.''
 The statement of Mgr. Bis,eti. Papal Major Domo. that ex-President Roose- welt has notified the Vatican of his desire to call upon the Pope. has awak- ened fresh interest in MT. Roosevelts s coming. He has been invited to ad- dress the Methodist Church in Rome, hut in, of ho 1a froq a Y1lx dent" it is assumed that he will pay his respects to the Pope before ap- bearing before the Methodists.
 Roosevelt, however. will have to give the Pope precedence over King Victor Emmanuel. who will also receive him in audience and entertain him at the palace. The Vatican's rules forbid an audience by the Pope to anyone who first honors the King. Emmanuel has no objection to receiving those who pay their first respects to the Pope.
 Washington, Feb. 11.-That the re- fusal of the Pope to receive former Vice President Fairbanks after the latter had addressed a Methodist or ganization at Rome, is the forerunner of a worldwide religious conflict, is tho opinion of Bishop J. c. Hartzell, head of the Methodist Episcopal Church Tn Africa.
 Bishop Hartzell called at the White House today to pay his respects to President Taft on the eve of his re- turn to Africa. where he has been la boring for 25 years. Discussing the Fairbanks incident. as he left the White House. Bishop Hartzell said:
 'For the Pope to require all who are received by him to refuse to speak to any Protestant org ganizaton in Rome even if active members of such an organEZa tion-meanS a worldwide challenge to Protestantisni which will be accepted It will hasten the day when all Protestants will require that Greek and Ronan Catholic govern ments shall extend the same religious liberties to Protestants and their flags which Greek and Roman Catholic peo- pie enjoy under the Protestant flag"

TESTIFIES ALLDS
 DEMANDED BRIBE
PAID $6,OOO TO STYLE LEGIS- LAYTON ON BRIDGE MATTER.
Special from United Press

Albany, Feb. 11.-That State Sena- tor Jothan P. Aids, leader of the ma jority in the upper branch of thesstate legisla ture directly demanded the bribe Senator Ben Conger paid Aids to stifle legislation while member of tn assembly in 1901 was the sworn statement of Conger at the legislative inquiry today. Conger confirmed the testimony of Hiram c. Moe. his form CT employe, who has testified that he paid $6.000 to members of the Assem- by in connection with the bridge bill that year.
 After explaining that he and Aids were fellow members of the Assemb, y that year and that he had held the bill in the Internal Affairs Committee un- til the rules committee took charge of the legislation, Conger then said:
 "I met Aids in the corridor and he said: Ben, you think you have the bridge bottled in the Internal Affairs Committee but there's rules commit tee. don't forget that. There is some thing doing on that bill and you had better get officials of the American Bridge Company here.' I told him I would get my brother Frank and I did.
 he and Aids conferring in my apart ments. Aids demanded that we pay him $5,000 to kill the bil but my broth CT said that was too much. It was finally agreed that he was to get s1OoO and that s5.000 additional YVES to go to others members of the legisia ature" Witness stated that the other men are not now members of the legislature. He told the same story that Moe did regarding the way the money got to Albany and was distributed.
 When Aids got his envelope, accord ing to Conger. he said: 'I guess this is all right; it feels good"
 At this point the inquiry was ad- journed until next Tuesday morning. Conger was preceded on the stand by two witnesses and called to confirm Noes story that he was in Albany at the time the alleged bribe is said to have been jaid. John Newell, an elm ploye of the American Bridge Com pany, testified that he remembered
 meeting Moe in Albany about the time stated, although he conld not fix the date definitely John M. Jones of Groton. swore that he remembered
 Moe leaving that on the request of the late Frank Conger in 1901.

renditions just ingratiated themselves into the hearts of the antlers and they responded to many encores. These sisters are favorites in this city. Their suits all.
 For real high grade. intellectual amusement commend us to that mar velous trio of young men. Stepp, Meh- finger and King. Oh but they are the fine and dandy boys and make out they aren't there with the goods No wonder they are booked up for almost the rest of their natural lives. Their act this week at Polls is one grand big hit, but their act at Elks Home last evening was, if such a thing were possible, grander and bigger than their regular vaudeville stunt. It Is quite likely that Lew Garvey may ''holler" at this, but Lew brought the boys up to the Elks and if he would only own up he will have to admit that like the rest of us he says nothing tivated by the quality to say nothing of the quantity of entertainment the trio provided. As living exemp!ar of inexhaustible vitality, hats off to young MT. Mehlinger who can put character songs than any performer Tn his l1ne. we have seen hereabouts. He not only sings his songs but he talks them, he walks them. and waltzes them. and h;s expression is ever the expression that just fits to nicety the lines of his lay. Fortunate is he to have such companions as MT. Stepp and MT. King. The banjo recognizes
 it's master in MT. Stepp, while MT.
 King is rare find in his line. and if ever an act was evenly framed up 1t is tbis No wonder it is successful
 for che never could tire of the class of entertainment these boys serve up. Loren Delbridge and Eddie Madlgan, two of the best known of our local en- terrainers. delighted their friends and their work was up to their usual standard. MT. Delbridge sang with lis customary effect. while Eddie ripped the light fantastic in a man Ter that brought forth cheers. Prof William Weidenhamrner presided al
 the piano with his accustomed artistic success.
 Addresses were made by Mayor

 It was the. occasion of the official visit of the district deputy to Bridge port lodge. No. 36. which carries with it an inspection of the property and a personal observance of the ritualistlc work. The officers of Bridgeport lodge last evening exemplified the init fatory degree cpon eight candidates. So well was the work done that the district deputy gave expression to ms most hearty commendation.
