Rich wIve. for Poor clergymen.

Rich Wives for Poor Clergymens
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. "a plea for
clergymen who have to marry rich
wives to make up their financial def
icits' was made yesterday by the Rev.
George c. Richmond, rector of st.
Johns Episcopal Church.
Let us pay u clergy salaries which
place them on the same financial foot
ing with our janitors of schools, the re-
porters on Il newspapers and the
brakemen on our railroads." said Mr..
Richmond. 1.-THE salaries ofYthe clergy
in this great, rich diocese of Pennsyl-
vania are SO low, in some cases, that
rectors have to go in debt, have to
make loans, have to draw on their pri-
vate incomes or borrow on life insur-
ance policies, have to marry rich wives
to make up financial deficits. and thus
are In a position which detracts from
their status as leaders in the social
world.

ring into the furnace with a basket of
candy, unaware that the little gold

fitted and why he was such an un-
welcome guest that he had peer re-

When he explained that he never
meant to insult the girl of his heart
with a stingy basket of candy, but
thought it would be a delightful sur

bons. there was almost a fainting. For
three hours .ashcans were searched in

AUSTRALIA
FIRES CHINK
PEARL FISHERS

Melbourne, Feb. 24-The federal
government has gone step further
in the campaign against the Asiatics
in Australia. Regulations have just
been issued which will have the eff
feet Of practically expelling the ORR
entails who are engaged in the pearl
fisheries on the north coast of West
Australia Although trade is worth
to the commonwealth about 100000
sterling, the government has made
on scruple in carrying out its policy.
The ostensible reason for the minis
try's action is that the white Aus
tralia' policy permits of no infringe
ment such as are caused by the pres
ence of the pearlers on the COASTS,
but the real reason Is that the au-
thorities charged with the duty of
securing the defences of the island
are anxious lest the Japanese have

London, Feb. 24.-Leading railway
stock slumped dangerously at the
opening Of the stock exchange here
today as the result OF the interstate
commerce commission decision
against higher railroad rates in the
United States. The break ranged
from to points.
The heaviest losses we're in St.
Paul, Union Pacific, Southern Pacific,
Pennsylvania and Reading, although
other shares also were under heavy
pressure. A flood of selling orders
were cabled from America, in anti

New York exchange.
At 1890 o'clock the market was
most excited and trading was fever
ish. The direct cause--and the only
cause-of the drop in prices was the
ruling Of the commerce commission,
brokers assert. SO great was the
rush 10 unload that the fear was evil
dent that not only dividends drop or
disappear entirely, but interest on
the railway bonds would be imper-
lied.
