it was not the fault of himself or his
company.
A daily paper tried to make it appear
that there was trouble over placing the
Havelock band in the line, and assert
ed that for a time it threatened to inter-
fere. with the parade. The intimation
is utterly without foundation. That
matter was taken up and settled to the
satisfaction Of all concerned several
days before Labor Day.
The wrestling bout was big attrac-
ton, and it kept the women folks ex-
cited to great pitch A majority Of
them had never seen such thing be-
fore, and they were inclined to think it
rather brutal at first But when they
saw how easily the wrestlers took

audience.

FACING THE SUNLIGHT

Tt is just as easy to go through life
looking for the good and the beautiful
instead of the ugly; for the noble in
stead of the ignoble; for the bright and
cheerful instead of the dark and
gloomy; the hopeful instead of the
despairing; to see the bright side in
stead of the dark side. To set your

NEW RELIGION DEALING
 WITH EVERYDAY WORKS

Chicago, July 7.-Members of the University of Chicago Divinity School Faculty have defined and formulated a new Christianity" in an official but anonymous editorial in the current number of The Biblical Word, issued by the university press, responsibility for which is accepted by the thirteen editors.
 The university authorities point to the coming of the new Christianity as a type of faith which shall result in "the releasing of mems minds from the bonds of tradition and creed" ac- cept the results of the scientific study of the world and deal in every-d day works more than in theological sutle- ties. The religion is described as scientific. ethical, practical and al- truistic.
 The editorial remarks that eff there be a controversy between Genesis and geology the new Christianity will stand with geology" and that religion has it's rights, but so also has history, and one of these is that it be studied by his tOrical methods"

SPECIAL SESSION
 OF THE SENATE
Taft May Gall it to Nominate New Chief Justice of
 Supreme Court
Special from United Press.)


 Beverly, July 7.-Evidence that President Taft is going to have real sure enough vacation this summer came today with the announcement that the Executive and his whole family are to take a 10 days cruise along the New England coast. The departure will be made from Beverly about July IS aboard the Mayflower and Bar Harbor and other prominent resorts will be visited. It is possible the Sylph will also be taken on the cruise President Taft did not get away early to the Myopia golf links today but probably will motor across later with Captain Butt, his aide, and play with John Hays Hammond or with Henry Clay Prick of Pittsburg and New York with wrom he con- tended yesterday.
 Reports have been current here that President Taft is considering the call ing of a special session of the Sem ate to confirm the nomination of a Supreme Court in order that the big trust cases now pending may be pass ed upon as soon as possible. AS this special session would cost $50,0O0 and would probably not be called in any event until the expiration of the en- abling act passed to aid Justice Moody to retire-should he desire to do so- the talk of aispecial session is believed to be without good foundation. MT. Moody's time for decision is not up until November and it is pointed out that to save single month on the passage of the trust cases would hardly warrant the calling of the spe- cial session. No official statement in the matter has been made as yet.

AUTO TIRE MAKERS
 FORM BIG TRUST

New York, July 7.-Leon D. Kauff- man, President of the Motto Bloc Im- port Company, dealers in automo bile tires and accessories, has filed with the Supreme Court an affidavit charg- ing that several manufacturers of automobile tires and accessories are in a combination to force independ ent dealers out of business, to raise the retailers profits. MT. Kauffman's S affidavit reveals how great a factor is the retailers profit in the cost of tires and accessories to the consum- CT. MT. Kaufman charged that what is known as the Dealers Protective Association has been formed within the last few months, and that this is composed of retailers in whose busi- ness the manufacturers have an in- terest. Other dealers, including his own company, MT. Kaufman says, have to get their goods at consum- er's prices.
 Supreme Court Justice Giegerich, after reading Kauffmans affidavit, signed an order yesterday for the examination before trial of Lee w Bennett, who, Kaufman says, organ ized the Dealers Protective Associa- tion, and Joseph M. Gilbert, one of it's Directors. Bennett is connected with the General Auto Supply Com pany of ,671 Broadway.
 Bennett and Gilbert will be exam
 
 concerted scheme the various dealers mentioned by Kaufman have enter ed, who the dealers are, who have been permitted to join in the associa- tion or agreement, and under whose instruction the association was or ganized. According to Kaufman, the association includes manufacturers who furnish 90 per cent. of the tires and automobile accessories in the metropolitan district.
 Justice Giegerich has appointed George F. Roesch as referee to con- duct the examination of witnesses be- fore trial. He may summon before him the officers of various companies and compel them to produce their sales books and other competent rec ords. The companies accused by Kaufman include the Continental Caoutchouc Company, the Diamond Rubber Company, the Fisk Rubber Company, the G. & J. Tire Company, the Hartford Rubber Works Com pany, the B F. Goodrich Company of New York, the B. F. Goodrich Company of Ohio, Morgan & Wright of New York, and Morgan & Wright of Michigan.
