RECIPROCITY ACTION NOT
UNFRIENDLY, SAYS BORDEN.
Prime Minister Addresses Ca
madam Society of N. Y.

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-Robert L. Bor-
den, the new prime minister of Canada:
James Bryce, the British ambassador
to the United States; Governor John
A. Dix, of New York, and Robert c..
Smith, Kings oounsel Of Montreal.
were principal speakers at the fifteenth
annual Inner of the Canadian Society.
of New York, last night.
Mr.. Borden received the applause of
500 members and guests when he
prayed for everlasting endurance of
friendship and peace between the
United States and Canada. He de-
voted much of his address to drawing
a parallel between the problems and
of the kindred nations, and
said that Canadians were not ~insensible
TO the danger that great national re-
sources might pass into the hands OF
an oligarchy of wealth and be used
for the oppression of the people.
I'm this and other respects" he said,
we hope to profit by our experience.
There are children among those in
school in Ottawa today who win VI
Canada surpass in population, in
wealth and perhaps in influence the
British Islands, which are now the
heart of the empire"
Mr.. Borden ventured the guess that
his hearers had heard something OF
the recent reciprocity campaign. Per
nit me to assure you that the result
was not due in any ems to a spirit
of unfriendliness TO this great u
try" he said.

having taught twenty-five years. This
asked for something which the rus
tees in a broad construction Of their
powers had the permission of the
funds donor to grant, but the Ian
gnage used in the request gave them
reason to believe that the governor
considered a pension the inevitable re-
suit of twenty-five years of teaching,
a period he had recently completed.
1t was thereupon explained to Gov
ernor Wilson, the New York Sun said,
teachers did not automatically re-
oeive pensions on length of service
alone. and that no such pension had
been granted in the history of the
foundation up to that time. He was
informed, however, that 1t would be
entirely proper for him to make for
NAL application so that the executive
committee of the trustees might con-
slider the application on its merits.
Governor Wilson thereupon did So, and
the application was at length denied.
Governor Wilson, in Baltimore, was
asked to comment on the New York
SUMS article, but declared he had made
it a rule never to reply to anything
printed In the Sun.
After several hours of reflection,
Governor Wilson changed his mind
and issued the statement which was
published a few days ago.

CFrom the BROOKLYN Eagle).

The Eagle, through one of Its rep
resentatives, was informed a while &
by a friend of Governor Woodrow VII
son that its statement on this general
subject on August 1, 1911, was incor-
rect. The governor at once received
statement on the subject authorized
by him as correct would be willingly
published by this paper. None was ever
received. The terms of none were
suggested. Trustees of Princeton sent
word here that the Eagles statement
was substantially correct" but they
did not point out the respects in which
the statement did any injustice to the
trustees or to Governor Wilson. One
dalton, however, assured us that the
full explanation would do 10 harm to
the Eagle and leave none In doubt as
to the exact relation of Governor VIII
son to the question.
Particulars today set forth in the
esteemed Sun qualify the Eagles state
ment of last August J.. The trustees
of Princeton University were not asked
to request the pension. They were in
directly assured that If they quietly
abetted the request for it, made to the
foundation by the governor, the favor
would be greatly appreciated. They
did not quietly abet the request. They
did not loudly turf 1t down. They just
LET il take its purse before the mem
bers of the foundation. That founda-
tion has declined to grant the request
on the ground that Governor Wilson
has not lived long enough, or taught
for work to bring him under either
the general or the exceptional rules
which govern the pensioning policy Of
the foundation.

Rows and rows of dolls who will
soon be looking for homes smiled at
the youngsters travelling through Toy
land. Some of them were baby dolls
in long white dresses, who obeyed to
the letter Santa's injunction not to
cry. Others had chestnut curls and
wore the daintiest gowns of colored
satin, with hair ribbons to match.
Some were made of cloth instead of
china, so that they can Withstand the
knocks they may get after Christmas.
Some had their trunks filled with
dainty garments to be expressed to
their new homes, while others were
waiting for some kind mother, aunt
or older sister to make their wardrobe.

OWENS
OF CRAFT CHARGES
Police Board Praise Officer and
Condemns Men Who Ac-
cused Him.

Thomas j.. owens is completely
exonerated of the false charges of
graft made against him by Joseph
Caprio. This was the decision given
out by the police commissioners after
the case had been fully discussed in an
executive session yesterday afternoon.
The case against the plainclothesman
of the Second precinct was heard at
length or Monday when many wit
nesses who either admitted a close
blood relationship or were men arrest :
ed in raids testified hat they had seen
Owens take money.
One of the commissioners said:
The character of one of the clean
est and best patrolmen in our depart
ment had been attacked We inves-
tigated thoroughly and are satisfied
that the charges were made because
Owens had raided the place Of Vim
zenzo Guarino, uncle of Joseph Caprio.
Both of these men are special officers
who were openly violating the law.
We are sure that Owens is not that
calibre of a man that would stoop to
such measures and we all commend him
for the grand work he has done since
being made a plainclothesman. His as
sistance in thirty-two raids, two or
the place of the mar that testifies
against him, is ample proof of his per-
forming his duty"
The commissioners put great stress
on the fact that Caprio had been ar
rested on a charge of receiving money
under false pretenses while at Dan
bury, Conn, and also upon the fact
that he had admitted to several citi-
zens that he was going to get Ovens
The decision was reached after the
many contradictory statements made
by the witnesses in the case.
Patrolman Owens when see today
said: 81 feel glad to think that the
commissioners took up the case, for II
has established to all the plot that was
on foot to undermine my character.
The charges were absurd, and l knew
that only a thorough investigation
would settle the affair. My captain
was most anxious that the case should
be heard, and 1 thank all the witnesses
who so willingly went before the
board

The friends of Governor Wilson are
indignant over the use to which the
New York Sun publication has been
put, and assert hat instead of having
been guilty of anything undignifed
and un-American In applying for en-
rcllment on the Carnegie fund, with
the resultant financial benefits, he only
asked for that which was due him
because of his long service as an edu-
Gator.
They furthermore assert that to be
enrolled under the Carnegie fund Is a
badge of honor.
The newspapers that have COM
mented upon the New York Sun pub
LEGATION, particularly in the West n
South. have not been so charitable.
Some of Governor Wilson'S critics
argue that in applying for a pension
while in fine physical condition and
considerably under the Osler limit he
did not observe that sturdy i~ndepend-
ence characteristic of American man
hood.

. According to the New York sun
Governor Wilson, who had himself
been a trustee of the foundation, re-
signed upon ceasing to be president
of Princeton. He applied for a pension

whose earning capacity is diminished, if
not destroyed. by causes beyond his con-
troll. 1t is to be believed that such is the
purpose of pensions out of the Carnegie
Foundation, to place beyond want i%nstruc-
tors who have worn themselves out in
the practise Of their profession and have
been unable to accumulate a competence.
That must be the view of the trustees
OF the Carnegie Foundation, since they re-
jected Governor Wilson's application.
They could not see that 1t would be
proper to grant, even though he thought
it was proper to ask, a pensio to a man
who in the full enjoyment of all his
powers and faculties gave up "A well-sal-
aried position in order that he might be
free to enter politics and engag In the
pursuit of office.
We think that this explanation will be
sufficient for all. Governor Wilson included,
who may have been wondering why the
fact that he applied for a pension a year
ago was published and made the subject
OF more or less comment at this late day
only because until now the information
had been withheld from the public.

Pensioner and President.

The Pittsburg Gazette-Times has this
to say ed~itorially:
"Dr. Wilson's ethics are more ques-
tionable when it is considered that
when he made his application he was
but SO years of age. He is supposed to
be in the prime of his mental vigor, fit
for the arduous duties of President, and
to Withstand the terrific strain which
is ~inseparable from that Office.
las for Governor Wilson, If he should
be nominated for President, let him
have the courage of his principles and
write into his platform as the first dec
laration of policy: Grab all you can
get, and don't be too particular where
1t comes 'front.'"
