 There is nothing in the law that makes the Board of Relief a secret tribunal Any member of it, or all of them, have a perfect moral and le- gal right to make each and every ac- ton of the board public, when it oc- CUTS, when it only may occur, or when it is merely contemplated.

CONFERENCE" OF
 DOCTORS BECOMES
 MORE MYSTERIOUS
No Minutes, and Rev. Mir. Richardson's Explanation Sheds Clouds of Dark
 ness on the Subject

Another a1mshouse expert is com. ing to this city to confer with the Charities board. according to an an nouncement at the meeting of the board last evening. He is Alex John son. of Fort Wayne, Ind, author of a book upon almshouses and considered an authority upon the question. He o'clock Rev. Dr. Richardson made arrangements for his visit here.
 Rev. Matthew Judge suggested at the meeting last night that the min- utes of conference with the physi- clans of Bridgeport and St Vincenta hospitals be read. He said that he saw by the papers that there is plan afoot to substitute ''internes'' for regular surgeons at the Emergency hospital and in caring for the citys poor. He wanted the minutes read to enlighten the newspaper men on that subject, as he personally had heard nothing of the plan outlined in the press. Then it developed that nobody had any minutes of the meeting. The Rev. MT. Richardson, who was pres ent at the conference. made a report in which he tOld-nothing. The only information he divulged was to the effect that a committee had been ap- pointed, but for what purpose he did not state.

 This was the extent to which Dr. Richardson cared to enlighten his as- societes on the first conference with the doctors. The second, last Friday, was entirely informal, 1t was said.

THE LAWRENCE MOB

The police and the militia who for cibly prevented the parents of mill childrenS in Lawrence from sending them to other guardians were an arm ed mob. They were engaged m breaking the peace of the state and in depriving citizens by force of rights confirmed to them by the con stitutiOn of their state and the United States.
 No comparable occurrence has transpired in this country since 1885 when the orderly mob of Boston threw Garrison's presses into the street because he denounced chat tel slavery.
 The Lawrence mob is a more ser ious matter. The Boston mob was not in the uniform of the state. Its energies were directed against those who were making an assault on the rights of property-for slaves were in those days property as cer- tainly as houses.
 But the Lawrence mob directed it's energies to depriving fathers and mothers of a lawful and constitutional

In expressing his regret that he could not accept the invitation of the Associations of Letter Carriers ard Clerks to participate in ther banquet in Hartford this week, Congressman E. J. Hill says:
 If it was in my power to do it, I should be very glad to be there, but the pecu far character of the legisla- ton which is now being carried on here and my intimate relation to it as a member of the ways and means committee make it impossible for me to accept any engagement of any lyird or chara cter until these tariff bllls are disposed of.

THE VULNERABLE POINT

to show their repentance by works
 Samuel w. GIedhill, finding that such tenants had crept in to some of his property, has ordered them out.
 MT. Gledhill sets an example which other landlords, upon whom white slave tenants have imposed them selves, should follow
 Nay, he sets an example, which other landlords must follow, whether they will or not, the instant the pub lie prosecutor notifies them of thelr danger under the penal statute which describes the legal status of those who rent property to be used for the ghastly purposes of the cadet and the pander.
 To cry out against the police is futile. The police are ever willing ernment of a city. They cannot be expected to exceed their hetters in wisdom, or morality.
 Let the prosecutor send out his mo- tices to white slave landlords and the police will serve them-or his war rants-shall the notices fail. But the notices will not fail
 Let us be done with hypocrisy. Either the white slave traffic is tol- erabIe, or it is intolerable. If it is tolerable, and ought to be continued, let us say so, and talk to that point. If it is intolerable, then stop it by attacking it at it's most vulnerable DoiDt

Gossip at the city hall is now in terested in what it is pleased to call the open alliance of Mayor c. B. Will son and Alderman Daniel E. Walker, the leader of the democratic party, in which the mayor of the West End" is generally credited with obtaining the iong end.-The Bridgeport Tele- gram.
 It is a deplorable fact that condi- tions have so shaped themselves that a non partisan newspaper, such as The Telegram is, should feel itself justified in giving form and body to rumors that have been pretty stead fly circulated since a period just pre- ceding the fall elections.
 It may not be unusual for men en- toying leadership in one party to unite with the leaders of another par ty for their own political, or other, advancement, but the Democracy of Bridgeport has not often been treat ed to such a spectacle. and it must

The esteemed Bridgeport Post con- tinues to insist that there is a scan day in the Board of Relief, and that is true.
 But the scandal does not consist in the fact that The Post printed the eoncIusions of the board after The Farmer had given them to the pub lie That was not a scandal even in the editorial rooms of The Post, where they expect to be late with the best news.
 The scandal does consist in the fact that the Board of Relief made 8 judicial inquiry into the value of certain property, owned by wealthy corporations; that it finished it's work, gave Judgment, reduced the judg- 1nent to writing and signed it; that &pon the solicitation of Mayor Viii son the board then re-opened it's
