MAY BE TRANSFERRED
Rumor that Father Lavoie, Builder
Of New Church, May Leave.

Rumors have been persistent of
late that Father j. B. Lavoie of the
Oblate Fathers is to be transferred
to another field Of action. When
see yesterday Father Lavoie stated
that there is a possibility of this be-
ing true, but he is not in a position
to say that the reports are positively
true. Father Lavoie came to
Brownsville about two years ago.
Upon his arrival he was given the
task of financing and building a
Catholic church for the English
speaking Catholics of this city. His
efforts in this direction have been
successful to such an extent that the
church is already well under way
and, when completed, will be a beau
tiful one.
IL the rumor comes to be a fact,
it will be regretted by all the Cath
olics of the city. Father Lavoie is a
young man, an energetic and Jealous
priest, and has given his careful at
tention to the English speaking
Catholics of Brownsville. The new
church, which is fast assuming
form will always be a monument %
zeal and activity.

Returns AS Suddenly AS
She Vanished.

New York. Feb. 20.-Miss Margaret

town establishments, has returned to
this city for the first time since she
left after a squabble with the heirs at
law following her visit to the Babylon
estate of the millionaire, when she Sc
cured papers which, she said, gave her
control of a large port Of his fortune.
She appeared at the Hawley residence
Don after William Hawley, Edwin
Hawley's nephew, had gone down town
to bushes. She called up William Haw-
ley at his office and told him she was
at the house and in possession.
Miss Cameron said she had papers en-
titling her to the East Sixtieth street
house, the Babylon place, and all the
costly furnishings and art treasures
they contained, as well as a share of
the personal estate sufficient to main
tain them. She said she had consulted
q lawyer, h had advised her that
her claims We're legal and unanswer-
able.
Mr.. Hawley had been expecting some
such message from her for a week,

that Miss Cameron had in her pos
session papers which she believed made

Small Hope Still Left That Gen.

Be Averted.

London, Feb. 20.-While all the
preparations that have been made in
the coal fields of the United Kingdom
are for war rather than for peace.
there is just a CLEAN of hope that the
threatened strike Of nearly 100000
men at the end of this month will be
avertea.
The fact has just been disclosed
that William E. Harvey, leader mem

who is secretary of the miners fed
Grafton, accompanied by five repre-
sentatives of the English miners, is
holding meetings privately with five
mine owners in the hope of preparing
a basis for peace. Besides this, the
Cancellation board of the English fed
Grated area is also meeting today.
Should. progress be made in the
effort to reach a settlement in Eng
land, South Wales and Scotland will
remain the chief obstacles to an agree
ment.
The authorities look on Wales as
the great danger spot and having re-
gard to the disturbances which oc-

MONOPOLY CHARGED
TO SUGAR COMBINE
Trust Attacked In Official Re-
port, But No Remedy is
Proposed.

Washington, Feb. 19-The Hardwick
sugar trust" investigating committee,
after many weeks Of open hearings
here and in New York and almost
continuous work since last May, re-
ported to the Eouse today hat a
sugar trust exists. The report, which
Is signed by all the members Of the
committee, republicans as well as dem
ocrats, make nc recommendation
whatever as to how the alleged trust
and those responsible for it shall be
dealt with, suggesting hat this phaze
of the situation is one to be handled
by standing committees of the House.
AS to the effect of the combine on
the cost of sugar to the country, the
committee expresses the belief that
monopoly keeps he price up, but
makes no attempt to fix accurately the
extent to which reasonable prices that
might exist under competitive condi-
tons are exceeded.
The report severely condemns the
original promoters Of the sugar trust,
but describes the 100. 900 present owners
Of h stock of the American Sugar
Refining company, innocent purchas-
ers'' of profitable stock which was un-
loaded on them by the few men who
organized the trust.
Henry O. Havemeyer Is given credit
for the organization Of the company.

classes, but no one can escape him. The
countless characters he created nave
become part of the make UP of u
minds and expression, and he is incor-
porated in the language. Who is there
that has not heard OF Little NeI,''
Of "~Traddles.'' of "Scrooge' or
"squeers," of "BM Skies" and "Mr.
Micawber," and 'rUriah Heap? Why,
we know them as we'll as we know the
people whom we meet every day; bet
ter. for hat matter. since they have
become types by which we measure the
living world. To call a man a Peck
sniff" is to label him pretty clearly.
and even inanimate things, like the
"old Curiosity Shop" have given their
name n character to numberless fol-
lowers. No, we can't escape from
Dickens, ven IL we want to. -he world
he made has come to be a part of the
world we all live in; we use the names
he used. and speak the phrases in Il
every day intercourse; In fact, 1t Is
hard to think of a world with all this
