OPERA DECISION RESERVED
Plot of Hammerstein's. Says
Counsel for Metropolitan.

Justice Pendleton yesterday heard ar
guments and reserved decision on the
motion OF the Metropolitan Opera Com
pany for a judgment against Oscar Ham
merstein and his son. Arthur Hammer
stein. on the ground that the defence Of
the two failed To answer the charges
made In the suit TO restrain the Hammer
stems from giving opera In New York.
This move Of the defendants. said Paul
Cravath, attorney for the Metropolitan
company. would be in violation of the con
tract under which the Hammersteins
sold out to the plaintiff and agreed not
to give opera In New York I'm ten years
from the time the contract went into
effect.
The Hammersteins have answered that
the Metropolitan company is trust in
violation OF the Sherman law. and John
3. Stanchfield. counsel for the de-
PENDANTS, said the methods Of the com
pany had been such "as measure up TO
those laid at the doors OF the Standard
Oil Company and the American Tobacco
Company"
Mr.. Cravath said the Metropolitan
made 10 effort 10 maintain a monopoly
OF opera in New York, because the field
is open TO any one but the Hammerstens.
This is a deliberate and wicked plot
OF Hammerstein and his SON. he said,
TO come to New York with 100000 worth
Of scenery from their unsuccessful trial
in London and repeat here their dlsas-
trous experiences there"

TWO ASK FOR CHANGE
The Right Rev. J. N. Francis
May Be Sent to Porto Rico
by Episcopal Church.

Immediately after the ad journment OF
the Episcopal House OF Bishops yester-
day. after a late afternoon session, Dr.
Samuel Hart, the secretary, made several
important announcements. In view Of the
fact that the bishops are now engaged
in selecting candidates for vacancies In
the episcopate. there was much interest
in his announcement that Bishop William
+. Osborne, OF the Diocese of Springfield,
had resigned outright because OF age and
inhrmity; that Bishop Joseph NJ Francis.
of the Diocese OF indianapolis. had asked
TO be transferred from that diocese to a
climate more favorable to members OF his
| Family, and that Bishop Cameron Mann
] had been transferred from the missionary
district Of North Dakota to the mission
airy district Of Southern Florida.
1t was said in convention circles last
night that Bishop Francis might be sent
either TO the vacant see in Cuba or to
the vacant missionary district of Porto
Rico. In case he is sent TO Porto Rico
there will be one less vacancy I'm the
ranks of missionary districts for the
House Of Bishops to I'll at the pending
election 1t will be necessary to choose
a missionary bishop to take charge OF
North Dakota. instead OF Southern Flor
ida
The elections were set for Monday
morning, instead Of this morning. Dr.
Hart announced that the committee in
charge Of the nominations had not com
pleted its work, a work which is done In
secret and report Of which is not even
placed on the records OF the convention.
DR. Hart also announced that the island
OF Hayti had been taken into fun com
munion with the Church. and that Haytl
and Santo Domingo will be made part
Of the missionary district Of Porto Rico
The bishops also decided 10 change the
name Of the missionary district Of Cape
Palmas to Liberia. and that of Wu-hu
I'm China. to Anking
The bishops favorably reported on the
resolution sent up for concurrence by the
House OF Deputies to permit the practice
OF Injunction. or the administering Of
the wine in the Holy Communion by dip
ping the wafer into il. This change in
the communion ritual was proposed In
the House of Deputies because of the
Board of Health agitation i'm Denver
against the transfer Of the chalice from
lip to lip, the health authorities contend
ing Il at II was likely to transmit disease.
According TO DR.. Harris announcement,
the House OF Bishops ordered that In
cases Of communicable disease. the ad-
ministering priest to be the Judge OF tho
necessity. the practice of Injunction
might be adopted.

which found him guilty Of heresy ana

ON that occasion Edward NJ. Shepard
mis- counsel argued for stay OF sentence

DR.. Orapsey Immediately appealed 70

which the diocese of Western New York
Is situated But this court of review had
no jurisdiction TO pass on questions OF
doctrine, faith or worship" II could
only review the facts and the procedure

Mr.. AdamSon Will Offer Bill for
Temporary Settlement Of
the Canal Dispute.
REGARDED AS COMPROMISE
Scheme Believed to Have the
Presidents Approval, Leav-
ing Question of Repeal
for Later Action.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington. Oct IA bill to suspend
indefinitely the free tolls provision OF the
Panama Canal act is to be sponsored In
the House by Chairman Adamson OF the
Committee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce and author OF the act. The
measure represents the views of the ad-
ministration regarding at least a tenn
porary settlement OF the international
tolls dispute.
Mr. Adamson said to-day that he would
soon introduce a bill suspending the ex-
emption granted to ships in the coast
wise trade of the United States This
would not repeal the free tolls provision,
but would serve practically the same end.
Mr.. Adamson will offer it as a compro-
mise between the views OF those insist
ing on the repeal Of the questioned pro-
vision and the ship subsidy element,
which insists on free tolls for American
vessels.
The chairman OF the Interstate and
Foreign Commerce Committee would not
admit that President Wilson had as yet
approved the proposed bill, but there is
abundant reason for such belief. The
President has heretofore been regarded
as favorable TO repeal Of the free tolls
section. For the sake OF expedency and
harmony he Is believed to be ready 10
agree to an indefinite suspension of free
tolls. pending the conclusion OF diplo-
matte negotiations and the ascertainment
that the canal deprived OF such tolls, will
ha self-sunportIuu

II is the contention OF Representative

itself II vessels IN the coastwise trade
are permitted 20 go through the locks
without payment Of tolls. The receipts
from the vessels. if collected. he esti-
mates, will amount TO approximately g.

demonstrated that the coastwise ship

canal on a self-susta!ning basis.
While Mr. AdamSon has always been
opposed 10 the free tolls provision. hold
ing that il was a ship subsidy which
would bring no benefit 10 the public, il is
not believed that he would act In this i'm

Judge Henry Agrees.

Judge George f. Henry. of Iowa. agreed
with DR.. Rogers.
II submit TO YOU" he said that the
life and reputation of a clergyman every
three years, or every ten years, is worth
more than the disadvantages of the pro-
posed system which its opponents have
been emphasizing. We have to-day the
tribunal If the first instance, TO try 4ues-
tons involving faith and no appellate
| tribunal for such cases.
! 1T has Teen said that the decisions Of
such a court would be no good, because
they would settle the question Of faith
for no one. That's worse than the pro0o-
sition to recall judges against which the
lawyers OF this country have voiced thsir
most earnest protest. 1t 10 an appeal to
the sentiment of anarchy"
But the Rev. DR.. Joseph b. Dunn Of
! the diocese of Southern Virginia. who
told the House a few days ago that his
diocese would belong to no province of
the Church, had his emphatic opinion TO
express on this proposition 10 create a
court Of appeal, and it was by no means
complimentary opinion
Or. Dunn represents an extremely low.

not wear a clerical vest as do practically
all the other presbyters of the house. and
he stands for the greatest degree possible
! of personal freedom in matters involving
religion.

ity to propose that the bishops should

would be looked upon as too ridiculous
for notice. And yet here you propose to
sive the House Of Bishops power to draw
up the doctrine OF the Church by defining
with nicely the faith we should hold.
George Wharton Pepper. of Philadel-
phia, could see possibilities OF embarrass-
ment for the Church should the House Of
Bishops feel compelled at any time TO

cent weapons of destruction and that they
use them for the purpose for which they
were made. The Spanard began the work
and, entering upon an evil inheritance We
continued, with more perfect weapons.
But the Moro is still unsubdued. and
say more honor to the Moro, We can
go on with our oppressive measures to the

A woman frequently changes her
face and always her gown. while to
change her Jewels Is an event calling
for chronicle. Richard Barry writes in
the New York Times.
"Is that Mrs. So.and.So in box -"
I heard one woman ask another the
other night.
LET me see," replied her COM
panion, selling the glasses. mo. Mrs.
So.and-So has sapphires surrounding
a pearl In her pendant. That has
emeralds. 1t is Mrs. lf-and-But."
WHO is that next to herr"

mo. With the oval brooch set

"Oh! That is Mrs. Or.to.Bos

daughter, only she never will let any
one wear her opals; lucky for her,
unlucky for another Is her idea. What
has she done to her face?"
These women. their dependents and
their intimates hold their Jewels in
the affectionate regard that another
group Of women might hold their chill
dren. The entrance to the circle Of
each new piece Of jewelry is noted
and commented on carefully. It un.
dergoes Jealous observation at first
Then, II deserving 1t. 1t achieves

Look! There is that little Miss

till the second year, at least, for q
necklace like that. However, give me
your glasses: thes are better than
mine"
After . moment she releases the
glasses with a satisfied smile. "At
any rate" she observes, they are
perfectly matched and Just the right
size"
So It goes. Jewels the center Of at.
