GOV. BALDWIN AGAINST
 ALLOWING COLLEGE BOYS
 TO VOTE IN NEW HAVEN

New Haven, Nov. 30-Governor Bald win. in an interview in this mornings ale News, is quoted az not in favor of the students of Yale university voting in the national, state or city elections. The opinion is pertinent at this time when the city restrictions, strictly enforced in the recent election, against students voting have caused some to consider an agitation in favor of securing the consent of the regis trars to their voting. Governor Bald win says:
 Tn my opinion voting should be con hned to domiciled inha abitants, that is, those Wh0 have a permanent place of VoIlnS- students come to Yale for a temporary purpose and most of them have no idea of making it permanent home.
 Where they do cut loose from their former moor1ng not intending to re- turn they may thus transfer their home and domicile and be entitled to vote.
 By the law of Rome in the ena- pires an arbitrary term of 10 years, if l recall rightly, was set as the r1i1li- mum term of residence at an educa- tiona1 institution which would give a student vote. Our American law rests not on any arbitrary term of time, but on the existence of a home Or Of a permanent residence. I am inclined to think that the home is a better test than simple residence, not implying the possession of a home.''

New York, Nov. 30.-Acting on the advice of counsel. Albert T. Patrick, freed by Gov. Dix after 12 years i'm prisonment for the murder of Will liam Marsh Rice, today. went. about preparing to offer fora probate the second Rice will, the testament that it is alleged is a forgery
 In the opinion of Patrick and his counsel, Judge William M K. Olcott. the proving of the will would auto naatically vindicate Patrick of the eliminate the alleged motive for the killing of the millionaire.
 Patrick said that he did not care so much about getting control of the Rice millions as he did about carry ing out the provisions of the second will. He said he regarded the pro- visions of that will as "a sacred trust put upon him by Rice and he thought he would be derelict in his duty if he did not do everything pos sible to carry out the trust.

Washington, Nov s0-Appropria- tions of nearly s20o.0O0, 900 for pen sions to veterans of American wars will be necessary at the short session of congress that opens Monday.

 Unexpected support has appeared at the senate for a bill to remove the present limitation upon pensions to gives no pension to a widow who married her soldier hustand after July 27, 1890. Repeated efforts to rem owe or modify this limitation haze failed, and 1t is expected that if the senate should act on bill this year, demo- crats of the house. would vigorously oppose it, because of the, great in- pension outlay.

HYDE CLIPPER
 SAYS HIS FIGHT
 HAS JUST BEGUN
New York City Chamberlain Feels Confident His Con- viction For Bribery Will Not Stand

New York, Nov. 3o.-F'o1lowing his conviction, last night, of using his of- flee as city chamberlain for purpose of bribery, Charles H. Hyde was de- cidedly chipper when he awoke, to- day, to the guards in Tombs prison. A note was sent to him asking him what he planned and he sent back word that he would refer all inquir- CTS to his lawyers. He declared that the fight had just begun and that he felt confident the conviction would not stand.
 John B. stancnfeld and Max D. Steuer attorneys for Hyde. began the preparation, today, of papers asking for certificate of reasonable doubt. They would apply for this immedi : tence, next Wednesday, and there was practically no doubt that it would be granted and Hyde released on bail pending the appeal to the appellate division of the supreme court.
 The application will be made to part one of the supreme court but unil such certificate is granted Hyde must remain in the Tom bs- The penalty for misuse of his office, of which he was convicted, is from one to 10 years Imprisonment and a fine of $5,OOO. This being Hyde's first conviction, he must be given an in- determinate sentence of not less than one year but it is for the court to say whether a fine is to be imposed in addition. . The celerity with which the jury agreed on its verdict was a stunning surprise to everybody about the court. Although half dozen of the most noted al&enists in the country testified that Joseph G. Robin, the material witness against Hyde, was insane the jury preferred to consider him an ab- soluteiy competent witness and con- victed the attorney.

PAYNE TELLS HlW
 DEMOCRATS ARE TO
 REVISE THE TARIFF
AIdrich Tariff Bill in Role of Prophet

Washington Nov. 30.-Efow the Dem ocrats will probably revise the tariff has been outlined in an exclusive in terview to the United Press by Rep York, co-author of the Payne-A1drich bill
 He predicted that the Democrats would take up the tariff piecemea1. He also opined that they would find their ma jority in the House at least too un- wieldy for quick action.
 .'I do not believe the Democrats will be able to revise the sugar schedule at least to the extent of putting su- gar on the free list for two years, " said Payne. There are too many Dem ocrats, particularly in the Senate, who income or excess tax bill, which was linked with the free sugar bflls will probably fail as a result, The prob able adoption of the income tax amendment will make unnecessary the substitute of such bill.
 "I think Representative Underwood will be wise if he takes up the tariff schedule by schedule instead of at tempting to pass a general tariff bill In this way he can get votes from the would probably lose an omnibus bill
 'sIf the Democrats do not pass prac- ticaIIy the same identical, sugar cot ton and iron and steel bills as they passed last time they will sJtultify themselves. They declared these bills in strict accordance with the Demo cratic policy. They were held out to be for revenue only, without any protective features and such as would these bills were honest. If they are not passed again it will show that these bills were dishonest or that the measures are dishonest

 Neither soldiers nor postal clerks, may discharged for the whim prejudice of superior. There is a RIGHT OF THE JOB.. That right may not be over thrown without lawful reason
 But the engineer has right of the ob except what he has gained through the power of his organization
 If the commission wants to place railroad in the category postal clerks it should begin by placing railroads in the same category as the post office.
 When postal clerks and railroad alike ser wants of the public and paid by the public it will be sonabe to command them to submit their demands to compulsory public arbitration.
 Also the government is at present organized, it is questionable if arbitratons would be socially icaly just
