Has Not Heard of It.


New York, December 19.-Eugene r.
Cox, chairman of the Christian Science
Publication Committee In New York,
said to-day that he had not heard OF
any insurgent activities on the part
of Mrs. Stetson since Mrs. Eddy's death.
II will say that do not believe that
the directors of the Mother Church
would be at all alarmed If Mrs. Stetson
should make an attempt to question
their power" said Mr.. Cox. Il tlSnk
that they would welcome the opportun-
ity to have that matter settled between
themselves and Mrs. Stetson once and
for all time
Mrs. Stetson could not be seen at
her home, West Ninety sixth Street,
which is the house provided for her
as pastor emeritus by the congrega-
ton Of the First Church before her eX-
communication last year.
A close friend of the former leader
of the First Church. who spoke for
her, said to-night
Mrs. stetson will be the first pub.
licly to deny that she harbors any
such intention as that credited to her
by the tive directors of the Mother
Church. She believes that God is the
great judge and lawgiver and that lie
controls the board of directors and
herself alike and all who follow in
the footsteps of our great and beloved
leader.
No Aspirations.
"Shc has no aspirations to succeed
to the temporal or spiritual power that
was Mrs, Eddy's. 1t is lasr belief that
by their works people shall be Judged.
BY their works the board of directors
in Boston will prove their fitness to
rule or otherwise. Mrs. Stetson be-
lleves that she is not called upon to
Intervene in the final Judgment or
their works"
Since her accommodation from the
Mother Church in November, 1909 Mrs
Stetson has Issued repeated denials of
statements attributng to her dis
loyalty to Mrs Eddy and the design to
head new sect. AS lately as last
month rumors that Mrs. Stetson was
laying plans to succeed Mrs. Eddy
upon the latter's death drew from ner
a further expression of her loyalty.
In a published statement she SAID
that she wished "again to declare my
allegiance to tho great
leader of Christian Science, Mrs Eddy,
my unfaltering adherence TO her teach
ings as set forth In our textbook,

Not Omcinlly AdNtred.

Washington. ID. C., December 1a.-If
the Hornet is engaged in a flibuster-
ing expedition directed against Hon
duras or Mexico. IL is regarded as
strange that no formal protest against
the departure of the ship was lodged
with the state Department or with the
United states district attorney at New
Orleans.
Up to the moment the ship sailed the
State Department had nothing but
newspaper reports bearing upon her
mission.
In the absence of any official com
plant the state Department has not
acted TO detan the vessel, but it is
understood her course Will be closely
watched. The United States ship Ia
coma is now al Puerto Cortez, on the
north coast of Honduras, and as her
captain is looking out for violations
OF the neutrality law, he doubtless
would have an eye to the movements OF
the Hornet should She appear on the
coast. The official opinion is that ii
the Hornet IS on a hostile expedition
she is moving against Davilla rather
than against Diaz, as the Mexican
coast is pretty well guarded by gun
boats able TO cope with the Hornet.
The Hornet will sail, according to her
captain, o-morrow afternoon at 3
o'clock. The vessel cast off her moor
ings at her berth up the river and
moved down five miles at s o'clock to-
night. Captain Charles Johnson went
to his home In this city to spend the
night. and stated that he would no,
board the Hornet unit! the sailing hour
tomorrow. Repairs to the machinery
made necessary the delay in sailing.
Jesus Ulloa. Honduran consul at this
port, tonight notified the Honduran
minister at Washington that the Hor-
net expedition looks strongly revolu-
and the vessel is undoubtedly
being fitted out for a revolutionary
move against Honduras by former Pres
ident Manuel Bonilla, of that republic,
and General Lee Christmas
Senor Ulloa expects the State De-
partment to take some action to pre-
vent the Hornet sailing.
From personal observations and
from reports of my agents, / believe
the Hornet is being fitted for no other
than to open hostilities on

New orleans, La. December l9.-
The former United states gunboat Hor-
net, reported to have been purchased
by HonduiEn reYolutionists, cleared
this afternoon for Capg Gracias, with q
crew of twenty men, 200 tons of coal
and provisions for thirty days In
cluded among the crew are several
men who are said to have heen cou-
nected with previous flibustering ex-
petitions directed against Central
American republics.
The Hornet was cleared as mer-
chant vessel by G. W. Reuff, Jr., agent
for the owner. who is given as Joseph
w. Beer, head Of line of 9chooners
now in the Central American trade
Mr.. Reuf branded as false the re.
port that the steamer was involved in
a revolutionary expedition.
Captain c. Johnson, the master. has
been employed by the Estrada govern
ment in Nicaragua for several molths,
and until recently was commander oT
the little Nicaraguan gunboat Yuia
Although the clearance papers were
secured shortly afternoon. Captain
johnson had not shown up at the ooai
at an early hour tonight. Announce
ment was made at O'Clock that the
Hornet probably would sail after mid
night.
The revenue cutter Dayy was iashed
10 the Hornets side all morning. and
a thorough inspection was made ct
the trim little craft and her supplies.
The members of the Hornets crew
are under contract for a siNty-day
with guarantee of irst-ciass
return passage to New ORLEANS or
bonuses in case they desire to remain
longer with tho craft. Some of inc
members OF the crew frankly admitted
tonight that they believed the Hcrns;
was destined for Honduras.
Late this afternoon TWO unknown
Central Americans boarded the Hornet
and remained several hours, waiting
for Captain Johnson, They finally de-
parted without having seen him.

United States Senator James 3. Frazier
arrived here to-day from "ashington
TO spend the holidays. He was mem
Der of the subcommittee of the Com
mittec on Privileges and Elections OF
the Senate named 10 investigate the
charges of bribery in connection with
the election of Senator Lorimer, OF
Illinois
In an interview. Senator Frazier
stated that he did not sign the report
OF the subcommittee exoneratng SEN
ator Lorimer. He said that the sub
committee, composed of Senator'S Bur
rows, Gamble Hepburn, Bulkeley,
Frazier. P.9ntere and johnson. held
several meetings aud heard proof in
the case, md the tinat meeting was
held Saturday
Il was not present at this meeting
said Senator Frazier, but left Wash
ington Friday night, and understood
that the subcommittee made report
TO the full committee and that all other
members agreed TO the report
Before leaving l prepared state
ment of my views and conclusions
based on the evidence and law and
gave 1t TO my secretary with instruc-
tions to hand it to the chairman OF
the subcommittee. and l have no doubt
he did this. In this statement, 1 dis
agreed with the report of the other
members of the subcommittee wherein
1t eNonerates the election of Senator
Lorimer from the charges of corrup-
tion.
Seven Tricked Votes.
Il stated in the report I filed that In
my Judgment, the evidence established
the fact that four members of the IL
linois Legislature who voted for Mr.
Lormer We're bribed to do SO, they
having confessed that, and further,
that they were bribed by three other
members of the Legislature who had
voted for Mr. Lorimer; and that my
conclusions as set out in the report
was that there were seven votes cast
for Lorimer which were corrupted or
tainted. Eliminating those seven votes
would reduce Lorimer's vote below the
number needed for his election, he
having received only six more votes
than were necessary to elect.
II certainly did not sign the report
of the subcommittee. In fact, I was
not in Washington when the subcom-
mittee held its final meeting to act
upon the matter.
WAS your statement minority re-
port?'' was asked.
Well. 1t could hardly be called
report.
You see, all the proceedings so far
have been in the nature of an execu-
tive proceeding. The subcommittee
made its full report to the full Com
mttee on Privileges and Elections, and
that committee Will make it's report to
the Senate. While my statement was
in the nature of a minority report to
the subcommittee majority report, it
presented my views and conclusions.
II do not know that the other men,
bers submitted their views, but they,
of course, had this privilege. I do not
know that the subcommittee report
was signed BY any one"

Washington, December 19-By a
vote of 81 to II, the Senate to-day
again emphatically announced its de-
termination to resist all efforts to al

establishment of cloture In that body
The question arose over the ruling
made last Saturday by president
Sherman, holding that an announce

quorum. The point was raised, over
the approval of the journal of Satur-
days proceedings but as 1t was not
settled at that time, 1t was revived
later in the day In connection with
votes on amendments to the omnibus
claims bill.
In this latter connection a vote was
taken on an appeal taken by Senator
Hale from decision by the chair
similar to that of Saturday. All of the
seventeen votes In favor OF sustaining

The. directors have heard that Mrs.
stetson teaches her pupils 10 believe
that the communication which was
passed upon her by the board last No
vember cannot and does not bar her
from Christian Science. inasmuch az
the directors have no power to debar
her from the pursuit OF her own reli-
gious thoughts. 1t has also been re-
ported to the heads OF the church that
within the last few days Mrs. Stetsom
has made preparation to launch her
claims to successorship publicly.
II Mrs. Stetson should bring court
proceedings to test the authority Of
the board of directors to continue to
conduct the offices of the Mother
Church. under the restrictions imposed
in the church manual by Mrs. Eddy.
it is believed that the. board would
have recourse to established judicial
procedure concerning the immaterial.
ity of minor restrictions in the gov
ernment of trusteeships when unavoid-
able circumstances prohibit strict ad-
herence to the letter of the provisions.
That provision in the deeds Of trust
to much OF the church property given
over by Mrs. Eddy to the board of
directors, acting as trustees, which
stipulates that no amendment or ad-
dition to the by-lsws of the church
should be made without her consent

his life last night by cutting his throat

discovered until early this morning,
when his roommate. William Gardner,
returned to the house and found him.
An ambulance was summoned and the
despe rately wounded man was hurried
to the City Hospital, where it is
thought his life may be saved.
Kellock had frequently Threatened

that he had left his wife and two chill
dren in .Scotlan nj when he came to this
country three years ago. 1t Is believed
this fact induced his rather frequent
fits of melanchola. He was employed
in the Clark thread mills until last
Saturday. He was to have gone to
