ALDERMEN GET SPANKING"
Christmas Pedlers Must Ply
Trade in Certain Streets.

The Board OF Estimate quietly
spanked" the Board of Aldermen yes
terday and overthrow a sweeping resolu-
ton the lower board passed recently that
would have turned the sidewalks and
streets throughout the city over 10
Christmas hucksters and pedlers.
IL has been customary In past years TO
give these hucksters certain streets TO ply
their trade around the holidays. This
year, however, the Board OF Aldermen
passed a resolution that laid all streets
open ia such invasion between December
10 and January 4.
Under Section A2 Of the charter the
Board of Estimate has the right to
modify or repeal any resolution of the
Board OF Aldermen referring to streets.
parks. bridges. tunnels, docks and all
other public grounds. Using this power.
which has rarely been invoked In the
past, the Board OF Estimate excluded
from the operation OF the aldermanic
resolution most OF the congested streets.
which have been the subject Of special
attention for the removal Of encroach-
ments on the part Of Borough President
McAneny. The exclusions take I'm most
OF the busy downtown streets, but not
Ann or Beekman street, which have been
the happy hunting grounds of the pedlers.

ing and lasted until evening. Before this

brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen ana
Enginemen, under whose auspices the de-
mands were drawn up. The conferences
will continue indefinitely.

One great republic, embracing all the
Anglo-Saxon nations on the globe, is the
dream which Senator John Sharp Will
Jams called happy and not impossible
I'm the sixth of his lectures at Columbia
University yesterday. The idea, he main
tains was entertained by men like Frank

England and is far from Impossible OF
fulflment.
In describing the great republic" he
said in part:
II would be a great, homogeneous re-
nnhlic without king or House OF
lords. II would have great federal
aXstem ike ours. which is the best In the
TryorId and IL would have a real system
~ parliamentary government by the cabi-
oct system OF England, which would give
ne real party responsibility to the ma
tjonaI win and would make every action
~ the Congress plain to every citizen OF
tbe great nation. Ii would be strong
eoyeInment and would need no army but

force for the sea.

who, after Petrosinos death, was the
crack Italian detective OF the Police De-
partment, when shown yesterday after
noon the above dispatch from Montreal,
said:
NO: that's all tommy-rot Every once
in a while some condemned Italian with
imagination tells about the murder OF
poor Joe All their stories are widely
different and none plausible.
1t IL quite true, however, that Petro-
sino was killed by New York Italians
merchants, too. They had just pulled of
a big Job, and breezed to Sicily. Joe got
there about the same time they did. and
they killed him because they believed him
TO be after them. He wasn't. He was on
an entirely different matter"

PETR0SIN0 MYSTERY AGAIN
Italian Under Sentence of Death
Confesses Hand in Murder.

Montreal Dec l2.-Carlo Battista. an
Italian under sentence OF death, made a
remarkable declaration here to-day in
which he said that Joseph Petrosino. the
New York Central Office detective muir
dered In Sicily three years ago, was killed
by tho order Of a powerful band OF Ital-
ians who preyed upon their countrymeD
and whose practices Petrosino had I'M
earthed.
According TO Battista, the members OF
the society which decreed Petrosino's
death were influential citizens OF New
York. Montreal and Vancouver. His dec
laration. or confession, as he calls II, has
been written out. and Will be forwarded
at once to the Minister OF Justice. c. j.
Doherty, for investigation.
Battsta says that this society, OF which
he was a member, had long collected
subscriptions from their countrymen new
ly arrived in America. The subscribers
were told, Battlsta declares. that the
money thus obtained was to be sent to
the royal family I'm Rome. This. OF
course. was never done, the conspirators.
he said, dividing the money among them
selves.
Petroslno discovered the conspiracy,
Battsta adds. and to shut his mouth the
society ordered his death. Battista gives
the names OF many persons who. he de-
clares, are connected with the organiza-
ton. 1t IL likely that an inquiry VIII be
started at once to determine II there Ia
any basis for the accusations.
Battsta Is soon to die Tor the murder Of
Salvatore Macaruso, fellow-countryman
The local police say 1t is possible that he
has given out the names In spirit or
