Throwing Kisses to White Women.
MERiDEN PASTOR PREACHED ANOTHER socIALIsTIc SERMON Occupied the Pulpit Against Wishes of
 Most, of His Congregation.

Meriden, Conn. Jan. 15.-Althoug h he had been asked by the parishioners to relinquish his pulpit, Rev. D. H. Loux pastor of the Center Congrega- tional church, who recently embraced socialism, at the morning. services to- day preached a sermon on socialistic lines. An audience of some 400 greet ed him, but Of that number but fifty were members of the church, the ma jority of whom were men.
 At the close of his sermon he asked those of the congregation who were in favor of his continuing his sermons to stand up, and twelve did so. He then asked the members of his church who were present how many of them were one of the members stated that he did not think it was the proper time for the matter to be decided, as the meet ing was not legal meeting of the church members, and the matter was dismissed by a member moving to. ad- journ.
 A meeting of the congregation and the pastor will be held Monday night and it is expected that an arrangement will be made whereby Dr. Loux will relinquish his pastorate at once on receipt of the salary due him up to the first of April the time set by him in his resignation.
 One incident that attracted more or less attention took place while a dea- con of the church was discussing the pastors request for an expression by the members as to his continuance of his sermons. The deacon was stating his idea of the matter when a man in the rear said ''Shut up.'' The deacon took exception to this and the man ex- plained that he was speaking to his wife.

THE COMMERCIAL USE
 OF THE PANAMA CANAL
Terminals Needed for the Transship-
 nent of Cargoes.

Washington, Jan. 15.-Plans for the commercial use of the Panama canal have progressed to such an extent that the canal commission now has before 1t extensive information as to the ship ping that is likely to pass through the inter-oceanic highway. This informa- tion has been laid before the estimates committee of the house, but will not be made public. Terminals have been planned equal to the prospective com mercfal demands according to Colonel Goethals chairman of the canal com mission. Wharves are to be construct ed that will provide for the unloading and transshipnent of cargoes of ships that want to make the canal a. transfer point.
 ships destined to many ports will carry cargoes contigned to other ports," said Colonel Goethals, "and they will drop their. cargoes at the ca nal for transslipment by other vessels.
 Terminal facilities will be needed for just such shipments as these, but it is our purpose at present to build only sufficient wharves for the vessels that are now utilizing the terminal ends. A general plan has been made, however. for all future needs for com mercial business, and we are beginning q with work at the Pacific end, in ac- cordance with these plans-' 1.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATIC PARTY
 cONFRONTS A CRISIS.
MT. Sheehan's Name Not Likely to Be
 Presented to the Caucus.

New York, Jan. 15.-The focal center of the senatorial situation was again transported to Albany today, when Governor Dix left town. And although the governor continues to maintain, publicly, at least, his attitude of si- lence and hands off, more and more the conviction grows among leaders here who talked with him yesterday not only that the solution of the situation from him would preeipitate the final result-but that he knows it and with holds the word because he believes the outcome is already in his grasp.
 In the clubs along Fifth avenue in the hotel Hobbies, among the Tammany district leaders, there is no longer any doubt that the democratic party con- fronts a crisis. J. Sergeant Cram, chairman of the general committee of Tamnany Hall and long one Of the trusted advisers of Leader Charles F. Murphy, showed this today when he said:
 s-Yes. I'm going to Albany tomorrow. I think I have right to be there in a crisis of the party: perhaps at the extinction of the party. I've been waiting eighteen years to see the dem ocratic party in control and I don't want to see it all thrown away in seventeen days
 4 Albany N. Y, Jan. 15.-An attempt was made here tonight, following the conference between Governor Dix and NIT. Murphy. to verify a statement from one of the Tammany leaders who visited Governor Dix in New York yesterday that Governor Dix had ex- pressed a belief that MT. Sheehan's name would not be presented to the caucus tomorrow.

CONDITIONS SAME IN NEW YORK
Butter and Eggs Men Largely Over stocked-Big Reductions to Retailer.

New York. Jan. 15.-Commission men in New York announce the same con- dition in the trade as outlined in the Chicago despatcl1es. In fact, it was made known here last night that the butter and eggs men were greatly overstocked, and that reductions to the retailer would be made immedi- ately.
 Wholesalers Want the News Made
 Public.
 The wholesalers were emphatic in their statements that substantial re- ductions would be made, and they wanted the news made public in order that the consumer might demand cor responding cuts from his dealer. In other words. they feared that the re- tail men, although buying from the jobber at cheaper rates, would main tain their prices to customers.
 Drop of 20 Gents on Eggs.
 According to the jobbers, the finest fresh eggs should sell tomorrow at from B to 35 cents a dozen, as against from 50 to 55 cents last week. The finest grades of butter, they said, should bring from 33 to 35 cents 2 pound, as compared with 50 to 52 cents last week. Overstocking is given as the cause of the proposed cut and it is said that milk is likely also to drop.

UNKNOWN SAILOR DIED
 IN NEW HAVENSHOSPITAL
It is Said He Was Thrown Under
 Wheels of Freight Train.

New Haven, Conn.,, Jan. 15.-The sailor who was found early today dy- ing from wounds received by being run over by a train in the freight yards at Belle Dock and taken to the New Haven hospital, died a few hours aft CT reaching that institution. The dead mans name the police believe to be Stanton, but where his home is is not kRown. On investigation the police placed Alexander Stuard and George Kippe, two sailors on the schooner James F. Paul, Jr., under arrest, and they are being held for the coroner who will conduct an investigation, it being alleged that Stanton was thrown under the wheels of a freight train.
 According to a story told by Ralph Gilmore, who has charge of the hoist ing machinery on the dock at night, he saw the three men fighting, and mo- ticed their going behind freight cars which were being used for switching. He started after them to notify the : crew of the freight to look out for the three men, but was too late, as Stan ton had been run into. The men un- der arrest admit fighting, but claim they did not know that Stanton had been killed. The man, they said was a stranger who came on board the boat Saturday and ate with the crew and say the fight started because he stole wtl1isi1ey and a pair of boots from

SEVERE ATTACK ON ROoSEvELT'S
 CONSERVATION POLICIES.
Appeal to Declare Unconstitutional Creation of Big Fofest Reservations.

Washington, Jan. 15.-An attack on the conversation policies inaugurated by the Roosevelt administration more serious probably than any heretofore will be contained in an appeal next week to the supreme court of the United States to declare unconstitu- tional the creation of the big forest reservations of the west.
 Failure to win on this proposition is not to end the campaign of the anti conservationists. They have prepared to fight step further against the al- legged independence of the forest reser- vatfons from the state laws or the theory that the federal government in creating them holds the land merely as big land proprietor and not with any peculiarities of sovereignty
 The fight over the conservation poli- cies of the government has arisen out of the attempt of the United States to enjoin Fred Light, Colorado cattle man. from allow his cattle to tres pass" on the Holy Cross forest reserve in that state.

 HE WAS LEARNING TO RIDE.
Boston Young Man Killed by Passing
 Autom obiIe.

Fitchburg, Mass. Jan. 15@Faliing from the bicycle which he was just learning to ride, in front of an auto aobile in which were two well known Boston physicians, Dr.William R.

UNIQUE PARTY CAUCUS
 OF DEMOCRATS THURSDAY
Selection of House Speaker with Con-
 siderable Other Business.

Washington. Jan. 15.-Democratic members of the house of representa- lives are busily preparing for the unique party caucus next Thursday night which all democratic represen- tatives-elect are expected to attend The actual effect of the caucus is in tended to commit the democratic ma sority of the next house to an organ ization to be perfected next winter.
 It is expected that a committee on ways and means. the body which frames the tariff laws in their initial stages. will be chosen, the method of designating the personnel of standing committees will be decsrmined and a selection will be made for speaker of the house. The selection of Champ Clark of Missouri. the present minor 1ty leader, apparently is a foregone conclusion. as more than a majority of the democrats of the next house al- ready have pledged themselves to his election
 Nearly ell the democratic leaders favor the selection now of the mem bership of the ways and means com fnittee, In order that there shall be no delay in beginning work on the tariff revision programme to which the dern- ocrats are pledged. The majority of the committee intends to begin work at once. although the republican mil nority of the committee probably will not bs chosen until the new house is organized next winter. This delay will not be a handicap to the democrats however, as they intend to follow the custom of excluding the minority from the committee during the framing of a bill, just as the republicans, when they were the majority. excluded the demo- crats until their bill was ready to re- port.
 The slate which seems to find favor with most of the democratic leaders gives the chairmanship of the ways and means committee to Underwood ef Alabama.
 1hs selections, aside from reasons 0 &tness, have been made along geo. graphical lines.
 The method of selecting committees is not expected to be disposed of with out contest, although the declaration fs freely made by many leaders that ewo-thirds of the democrats of the next house favor the selection by cau- GUS of a committee on committees"
 It may be that the members of the house will come back from the har- fnony conference in Baltimore Tues day in such complacent mood that a tight over the appointment of com- rnittees can be avoided, although few arc sansuine of such q result.

CONGRESSMAN AMES
 REPLIES TO ROOSEVELT
Who Saturday Night Denied Certain
 Statements Made by Former.

Boston. Jan. 15.-Congressman But Ter Anes issued reply tonight for former President Roosevelt who last night made vigorous denial of cer- tain statements attributed to Mir. Ames regarding the alleged connection of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge with an effort to sell some old colliers to the navy department. Congressman Ames in his statement says in part:
 T do not question your denial of the conversation between yourself and Senator Lodge and the secretary of the navy. In fact, I expected you to do so. And a cabinet officer cannot be expected to verify the accuracy or inaccuracy of a conversation with his chief.
 T was authoritatively informed that you did use the words I have credited you with; but whether you did or did not is of minor importance and this particular part of the controversy may be safely left to some future time.
 Has it occurred to you that the denial of those charges or an expla- nation thereof should have been made floor of the senate, for the fair name of Massachusetts, if not for his own ?
 Has it occurred to you that the time and place for you to have to come to Senator Lodges rescue was even before you came to speak in his be-
 
 election?
 Has it occurred to you, or to Sen ator Lodge, that to thus rush to his defense in the press on the day before the caucus in the legislature on the senatorial election in thiF state was to lay yourself open to the charge, in the minds of some uncharitabIe people at least, of trying to suppress full inf6r- nation in the matter and your choice of time makes the delicate compli- ments you pay me in your telegram to Speaker Walker take on a politi- cal rather than a personal complex ion?
 Speaker Joseph Walker of the Mas sachusetts house. tonight issued a communication in which he further emphasized his stand against those who would place him in nomination against MT. Lodge for the senatorship. MT. Walker says in part: Early in would support him for reelection to the senate. I gave the matter careful thought and decided that it was my duty to support him. When I told him of my decision. I said to him that I had determined the question purely on public grounds and that I should never ask or expect from him political support or other favor. That is our understanding.
 "On July IT, 1910, I stated in a, pub- lie speech that I believed Mir Lodge should be elected and that, if I were a member of the legislature I should vote for him. I meant then and I mean now, exactly what I said
 Tt must be apparent to all of my real friends, that, under the circum- stances, I cannot now, with honor, be- come a candidate against Mr. Lodge. I cannot encourage or permit. so far as I can control the matter any mem 11 <,f& TArr rie,lr f<~ l, therefore, request members not to vote for me-"
