SEEK JOBS IN BRONX
N. Y. County Men Want Law
Permitting Their Transfer.

Employees in the New York County Of
fees have figured out that when the new
county administration starts IN Bronx
County II will mean the reduction OF the
force in this county by at least lo4 men.
The civil service law expressly states that
there shall be no transfer from the ser
vice Of one county to that Of another. So
the men in this county whose jobs are In
peril are preparing TO ask the Civil Ser
vice Commission for permission to ask the
Legislature TO amend the Bronx county
bill so that men can be transferred from
the Offices here TO those in that county.
They assert IL would be OF advantage TO
have experienced men in starting the new
county administration.
IL is estimated that the opening up OF
the new offices in Bronx County VIII result
in a reduction OF employees In New York

NEW AMERICAN BISHOPS
Pope Holds Consistory and Dis
tributes Red Hats.

Rome Dec. 2-The Pope to-day OFF,
cially announced the appointment of the
following American prelates. The Right
Rev. Dennis j. O'Connell. Bishop of
Richmond: the Right Rev. Patrick a.
McGovern. Bishop of Cheyenne. the
Right Rev. Austin Dowling. Bishop OF
Des Moines. and the Rev. Edward J.
Hanna. Auxiliary Bishop OF San Fran
cisco.
Contrary 20 custom. the Pope did not
deliver an allocution at the consistory
held to-day. II IS suggested In exp!ana-
ton that 1t was unnecessary from re-
lgious point OF view. owing TO the lack
OF any special pending religious ques-
tions. while events OF any other nature
interesting 10 the whole world are not yet
sufficiently matured for the Pope 10 ex-
press judgment OH them.
The red hat was formally placed on the
heads Of Cardinal Francis Y. Hagl. Arch

| CENTRAL PARK WEST PLANS
Scheme to Widen Dangerous
Street to Have Hearing.

Borough President McAneny and Park
Commissioner Stover have worked out
plan for the widening Of the roadway ana
the general improveme IF Central Park
West 10 which the Board OF Estimate
will give a public hearing on Thursday.
With the present layout the street is
considered one of the mos; dangerous In
that part of Manhattan. on the easterly
side. adjoining the park. there is side
walk OF u feet, with a double row OF
trees a westerly sidewalk OF 25 feet and
roadway Of As feet OF which practically
IS feet is taken UP by ear tracks The
rails of the northbound track are within
three feet Of the curb.
Under the plan seven feet would be
taken from the easterly sidewalk and
added to the roadway The easterly
track would be shifted TO the other side
Of the present westerly track, bringing
both practically I'm the centre or the
street, This would give twenty feet for
southhound traffic and twenty feet for
northbound on either side Of the tracks
reserving fifteen feet for the railroad
tracks
The citv officials believe that the cost
Of shifting the track should be met by
the railroad. and the Board OF Estimate
will ask the Public Service Commission TO
issue an order for the work. on the
ground that the present Arrangement Is
dangerous and should be changed for the
safety Of the public.
Objections have already been raised 10
the plan because 1t involves taking away
the row of shade trees lining the easterlV
curb. The landscape architect says how
ever. that they were set In poor SOIL ana
rock pockets so that many of them nave
died and few would exist In another nVe
years II is the intention of Park Com

VOTES FOR (CHINEsE) WOMEN
Suffrage Granted to Five Millions OF
Them at One Stroke.
fBv Telegraph to The Tribune

San Francisco. Dec. 2-Approximately
Ave million Chinese women living In the
province and within the jurisdiction OF
Canton were granted suffrage by the pro
vincial assembly just before 1t adjourned
ON Friday. Immediately after the Man
chu dynasty was overthrown the women
of Canton. especially those In the city
proper. took steps toward the enactment
of laws which would give them the right
IN vote. White women, members OF the
international suffrage movement, VINO
wore in Canton several months ago aid
cd the Chinese women in planning ana
carving on their campaign.
Chinese republican leaders favor equal
outrage. and IL is thought that Peklns
viii soon follow. With Canton and Pc
king granting equal suffrage, 1t is thought
thai all Of China will eventually give the
vote to women. In Canton ten women
are members Of the city assembly ana
they take a prominent part In the anairs
of that body.
