larger receipts at the gate than in others
and where larger crowds could be ac-
commodated. The stadium was built for
that purpose.
''The patronage has been unusual, as
II is bound to be when these games are
played in New York, because there are
scores of persons who make 1t their aim
to visit New York at that time, combin-
ing a modicum Of business with maxi
mum of pleasure.
Because OF large receipts and because
Of large crowds, some Of our baseball
friends seem to have lost their heads.
There is foolish talk about pooling the
receipts Of these particular games among

about pooling the receipts among ali

PRIESTS WILL
ASSIST BISHOP
Protest Against Action OF
RecaIcitrant Greek Catholics

There was a conference yesterday
at Perth Amboy of the Ruthenian
Greek Catholic priests from New
York and this vicinity to protest
against the action of the recalcl-
trant Ruthenian Greek Catholic
priests from Hungary against
Bishop Ortynski. There were the
following priests present: Mgr.
Nicholas ~Pidhorecki, of New York;
Rev. Alex. Ulitzky, of Jersey City;
Rev. E. Sydoriak, of Passaic; Rev.
P. Poniatishin, of Newark; Rev. V.
Mirossay, of Yonkers, N. Y; Rev.
R. Volynec, of Elizabeth; Rev. v.
Kovalitsky, of Carteret; Rev. Al.
Poulak, of New Haven, Conn; Rev.
M. Lysiak, of Yonkers, N. Y, and
Rev. J. Czaplinsky, of this city.
The conference vas held at the
rectory of Rev. Joseph Czaplinsky,
pastor of the Church Of the AS
sumption of the Holy Virgin. The
priests decided to stand by Bishop
Ortynski and help him to bring or
der in the affairs of the Ruthenian
Greek Catholic Church in America.
At 8 o'clock in the evening there
was a service in the Church Of the
Assumption Of the Holy Virgin, 1873

ARE READYTO
DELIVER BONDS
School and Water Issue to
Buyers This Week.

The city school and water bonds
which were sold on Friday afternoon
of last week to Outwater and VEINS,
of Jersey City, for $108,79O.5O, VIII
be ready for delivery the latter part
of this week, City Treasurer CharieS
X. Seaman states. The successful
bidders will be obliged to accept the
bonds at Mr.. Seaman's request, az
the city now holds a certified CHECK
for $1,000, given with the bid, from
the Jersey City firm. Owing to the
probable shortness of the time be-
tween the award Of the contract ana
the delivery of the bonds it is expect
ed that the bond firm will find it eX-
tremely hard to secure a ready mar
ket for the bonds.
Mr.. Seaman says that the premium
of $3.50, paid on each $1,000 BOND,
is exceedingly large and gratifying,
Judging from the present standing
of the bond market. 1t is on a par
with the price secured for Trenton
bonds, the city treasurer declares,
but a trife below the premium usual
bid on Hoboken bonds. The water
bonds are ready, but the school
bonds are still in the hands of the
printer and will not be ready for in
spection or signatures, Mr.. Seaman
announces, until the latter part OF
this week. A prompt delivery VIII
