SENSAT|0NALISM
IS HOPE Of PULPIT,
SAYS PROFESSOR
Morality of Bible Not Fitted for
Today, Also Declares
Yale Teacher.

CHICAGO, March 24.-The minister
who forsakes Sensationalism for theol-
ogy has no place in; the pulpit today,
according to Professor William G..
Simmer, of Yale University. His views
are set forth in the American Journal
OF Sociology, issued yesterday from the
University of Chicago press.
People donft care what the Bible
says any more, as the morality of this
book was written for tine ancient days"
is another assertion of Professor Sum
ner. He insists that the morality of
the Bible Toes not fit in well with that
of this day.
Nobody has ever don what the
Bible says" declares Professor Sumner
What men always have done, il they
tried to do right, was to conform to
the morals of the gro.ip and the time"
On the subject Of .s-ensationalism in
the pulpit Professor Sumner says: "The
pulpit as an institution 10 longer
speaks with authority. 1t tries to per-
suade and to do this il has to aim at
popularity. 1t wants to attract atten-
ton, like books, theatres, the lecture
platform, and it has to have recourse,
like them. to sensational methods to
win success"

FIGHTS OWN
MOTHER FOR HIS
CH|LUs CUSTODY
Forcibly Tears Crying Baby
from GRANDMOTHER Arms
in Courtroom.
Especial to the Newark start

JERSEY CITY, March 24.-An ex-
citing struggle for a child occurred in
the chamber of Viee-Chancellor Gar
rison when the court decided in favor
of Edgar B. Thomassis in a suit against
his mother for the custody of his A.
year-old- daughter, Louise.
Thomassis was the father of the child
by his first wife, Margaret, who died
soon after it's birth. ON her deathbed
she requested her mother-in-law to
are for her daughter. The mother
took the child, and since that time has
been caring for it. Not long ago the
father married the sister, Eleanor, OF
his first wife. He then decided that he
would like the care of his daughter.
His mother refused to give up the
child, saying that his present wife has
had no real affection for the child, and
on that account she would be better
cared for il she remained with her. The
son brought suit against his mother,
and the case was heard before Vice
Chancellor Garrison this morning.
The decision was rendered in favor
of the son, that, by the admission of
his mother. he was capable Of caring
for his child, the grandmother's conten-
ton being that only the wife of her
son was unfit.
The excitement began when the son
attempted to take his child from his
mother. who was holding her asleep
in her arms. The mother refused to
give her up the son insisted. and at
tempted to AXE her forcibly. The child
awoke and began to cry, clinging to
her grandmother. After an argument
the son agreed to call for the little girl
tomorrow. Then a woman, said to be
his wife, stepped up and said: Don't
be a - fool. Take her now" The
man did so, having to tear the scream
ing child from the arms of her grand
mother.
The grandmother attempted to fol-
low Kim out of the court, crying for
the child, but was detained by the on
lockers.
Thomassis lives at 423 Twelfth street,
West New York.

s250,000 LIBEL
SUIT INSTITUTED
AGAINST WALSH
Lawyer Charges Mine Owner
Attempted to Ruin His Pro-
fessional Standing.

WASHINGTON. March 24.-One-quar-
alleged libel and conspiracy are de-
manded of Thomas f. Walsh, the mil
lionaire mine owner, of Colorado and
Washington, in a suit filed today in
the Supreme Court of the District of
Columbia by Dethlef c. Hansen, a New
York lawyer. Joined as defendants with
Mr.. Walsh are his Washington repre-
sentative, Turner A. Wickersham. and
De Lancey Nieoil. CORTLAND V. Anable,
John d. Lindsay and George Gordon
Battle, members of the New York bar.
Hansen alleges that Mr.. Walsh caused
to be published IN a Denver newspaper
July u. 1905, a statement in which, 1t is
alleged that he referred to Hansen as a
"blackmaller and perjurer.'
The plaintiff says he was retained by
Violet Watson. a minor. to prosecute
a suit against Walsh, which he filed
September s. 1904. in the New York
courts. He retained as associate coun-
sci former Secretary of the Treasury
John G.. Carlisle. Before the case came
to a hearing, Hansen says, Walsh's at
torneys effected a settlement for Sc, 600,
and refused to settle his claim for at.
torney's fees.
Hansen declares that the defendant
her entered into a conspiracy to ruin
his standing as a member of the New
York bar, and caused charges to be
preferred against him with the griev-
ance committee of the bar association,
Only a portion of these charges were
sustained. he SAYS, and he was dis
barred for a term of one year.

Dr. WILEY OVER
OYSTER DECREE
Senator Likely to Appeal to
Sec'y Wilson in Pure Food
Experts Ruling.
Especial to the Newark star.l

WASHINGTON, March "a. oyster
men throughout the southern part of
the State, as the time approaches for
the now famous pure food decision
affecting the, shipment Of oysters that
had been ''floated,' to go into effect,
are wondering What the department OF
agriculture intends 10 40. United
states Senator Kean has maintained
an active interest in the matter ever
since it was taken up sonic weeks ago,
at the request OF the numerous oystel
men who feared they would be put
out of business il the order could not
be modified.
Senator kean has e~ndeayored TO as
certain the status of the matter. and
yesterday t.. o. Horner, of Ocean
county, of the senator's office, went to
the department of agriculture and had
a talk with DR.. +. L. Dunlap. one OF
the assistants of DR.. w. II. Wiley, the
pure food expert. 1t was also ascer-
tanned hat the report To the effect
that the Rhode Island delegation, which
was here at the time the delegation
came from New Jersey, had a secret
hearing, was incorrect. They were
heard the day following the Jerseymen
and the hearing was pubic, just as it
was when the New Jersey oyster men
presented their case.
Senator kean has learned that no de-
cision has been reached with reference
TO any modification of the order 1t is
declared, however, that DR.. Wiley will
stand firm for the order without n
modification, and that ultimately Sena-
tor Kean may ave TO take up the mat
ter with the secretary of agriculture.
Just what Ia be accomplished then
remains to be seen.
Representatives Wiley and Parker
are anxious to know what will be done
with reference to a public building bill
his session. The committee on public
buildings and grounds has not deter
mined as yet just what will be done.
1t is expected, however. hat the bill
will carry appropriations amounting to
ten millions. No new projects will be
taken up. it is understood, and if this
idea is adhered to there is little chance
that there will be anything 'appropri-
ated for Orange or East Orange.

MARSHAL ALC0TT
IN DANGER AND
MANY SEEK PLACE
Age May Bar Reappointment
Despite Backing OF Con-
gressional Delegation.
From a stan Correspondent

TRENTON, March 24.-The term Of
United States Marshal thomas ].
Alcott, of New Jersey, has expired and
there is very little prospect of his being
reappointed, because Acknowledgement
Wickersham is seeking to have q
change made in that important office.
Federal oficeholders throughout the
country are interested in the fate OF
Marshal AlcoLt because President
Taft's disposition of it viii make known
the attitude of the administration.
President Taft has declared that eff
cheney must be the first consideration.
according to his friends, and the at
torney-general has been asked to re-
port as to the New Jersey place.
United States Senator's John Kean and
Frank O. Briggs, as we'll as several
Jersey congressman, have asked for the
. appointment of Mr.. Alcott. Instead OF
precedent being followed, and the name
promptly sent to the Senate, the Presi-
len has, asked Mr.. Wickersham,s de-
partment for a report as to the Qtiali-
fications and the record of Alcott.
Attorney-General Wickersham is said
to have objected to Mi. Alcott because
of his age. He was 10 years old on jan
uary "a. The hackers of the Jersey ON
cial have had more than a broad init
nation tina the policy of the Taft ad-
ministration Is to select men for such
places as that Of marshal who are COM
paratiyely young"
Anybody who knows Marshal Alcott
knows that, despite his years, he is
strong and active, and frequently
makes long trips with Federal prison.
ers in his custody. He is IL veteran OF
the Civil War. having served as quar-
termaster-sergeant in the Twenty-third
New jersey Volunteers. He lives in
Mt. Holly Where he was born.
President Mckinley appointed Mr..
Alcott at the beginning of his first
administration, and he was r~eappoint-
ed by Roosevelt. He is widely known.
and for years was prominent in the
Republican party. He was recommend
ed by the late United States Senator
William J. Sewell for his office. There
! will be a big scramble for Mr.. Aicott 3
place il it is definitely decided that he
is not to be reappointed. The term
is four years and the salary 5000 a
year.
Senator kean, whose term expires
this year, probably will be Bile to n
excellent use for such a choice bit or
patronage Senator Briggs, as q citi-
zen of Trenton and particularly charged
with the affairs Of South Jersey so far
as the Senate is concerned, will make
a hard fight for Marshal Alcott. and
may have the courtesy extended to him
Of selecting the successor OF his con-
stituent If he can't land a r~eappoint-
ment.
