PRESS "CONDEMNED"
In CHURCH RESOLUTIONS
Newspapers Failed to Represent Sen
inent Of Christian People"
Il Il Charred.

Resolutions "condemning" the press
for having failed to represent the senti-
ment of the Christian people" have been
adopted by several religious societies of
the District. The resolutions apparently
have been prepared and distributed by
the same interested party for expeditions
adoption. The following Is one of the
several copies of the resolutions received
by The Washington Herald:
Whereas some Of the newspapers Of
this city have adopted an unfavorable
attitude toward the Jones-Works bill
and other legislation designed to advance
the moral interests Of the community.
and by such attitude have Influenced the
minds Of their readers against the en-
actment Of such Legislation: and
Whereas by not only accepting and
publishing advertisements for the liquor
interests but by lending their news and
editorial columns to those interests IN
the publication therein of articles in
favor of the saloon and opposed to good
order. good morals and to the aforesaid
legislation, have failed t. represent :hs
sentiment of the Christian people.
Therefore, be it resolved by the con-
gregation and affiliated bodies of the -
Church, that as Christian peoo,-. resi-
dents of and interested in this city and
District, We condemn such action by the
press which should make and consider
it its public duty to aid all movements
designed to remove or reduce crime, pow
erty and other evils caused by the sale
of liquor; and
BE it further resolved that copy of
this resolution be transmitted to each of
the daily papers of the city indicating
the attitude assumed"

pie. yesterday addressed TO President
Wilson a letter asking that he recon-.
mend to Congress the enactment Of leg
islation providing payment of the bal
ance due the depositors Of the Freed
mems Savings and Trust Company.
Mr.. White stated In his letter that
four of President Wilson'S predecessors
recommended the passage of the lesisla-
ton requested. When the company failed
in 1874, there were GLIB depositors. to
whom there was due s.. s3s. ee5.e Five
dividends. amounting to g. per cent. have
been paid. The legislation desired would
provide payment OF the 3s per cent un-
paid.
The Freedmen's Savings and Trust Com
pany was authorized by act of Congress
March ;, 1856. BY this act the company
was required to invest two-thirds Of its
capital in United States securities. Most
OF the branches OF the institution were
presided over by officers holding COM
missions and clothed in the uniform of
the United States.
These and other circumstances led
those dealing with the institution. 1t is
stated. to suppose that the Invitation to
deposit their savings with the bank came
from the government

instructions to the letter.
When q stranger accosted her at Penn
sylvanta Avenue and Ninth Street and
doffed his hat she gave him no encour-
agement. Pennsylvania Avenue was
thronged with pedestrians, and Miss Jett
was tempted to scream for help. Instead
she walked east In Psnnsylvansa Avenue
with the man following a few steps be-
hind her.
Miss Jett made no reply to his advances
until she saw Policeman Elliott standing
at Pennsylvania Avenue and Sixth Street.
Just as Miss Jett spied the policeman the
man following her caught hold of her arm
and attempted to stop her. Miss Jett
called to Policeman Elliott Before the
crowd realized what the stranger had

BEFORE SUPREME COURT

Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey. the thir-
teenth woman to be admitted to practice
before tho Supreme Court Of the United

bunal yesterday and made her first oral

merly Of Rhode Island Avenue, who died
in 1907, leaving a trust Of 81. 900 to certain
relatives in New England. Mrs. Mussey
Is appearing for the trustees OF the es-
tate and against the contestants.
Mrs. Mussey has had six other cases
before the Supreme Court. but yesterday

gumcnts orally. The fact that she was
the thirteenth woman in the United

does not worry her. She. like President

lucky number. as her birthday falls on
the 18th day OF the month.

SECRETARY BRYAN
ASKED TO AID CHINA
Asstil P. Brown Wants Prsaisr b
Exert His hlasacs fer
RoeeRnitiea.

A letter urging upon Secretary oi
State Bryan. 'the necessity Of quickly
extending recognition to our most emil
nent and firmly established sister repub-
lie OF China" was made public last
night by its writer. Austin p. Brown.
who declared that in his opinion the new
republic would have been recognised al
ready had It not been for the infiu-
ence the group Of six-power bankers'
brought to bear upon our outgoing admin
istration."
The reason reported to have been given
to Secretary Bryan by Henry p. David
son and Willard Strait, of J. Pierpont
Morgan & Co.. for not recognising ths
Chinese Republic. deserve no consider.

Had recognition been granted by this
government to our new Republic over q
year ago. instead of having been wrong
fully withheld, MILLIONS upon millions of
dollars worth Of machinery and material

trackage Of sixty thousand miles, would
have been well under way" Mr.. Browns
letter continues.
ut seems to me that We not only
ought quickly to correct that great
wrong as a matter Of justice and right
to the Chinese people, but that in the
interest OF our own people We should
extend to them all the temporary fnan-
cial aid they need by advancing them

The "fallacious statement put out
broadcast by the representatives OF the
Six Powers Foreign Bankers that the

Brown declared. He says the new re-

BOY STRUCK BY AUTO
AND SERIOUSLY HURT
Vincent Thonpson, Running Toward
Street Car, Fails to See Ap-
preaching Machine.

Vincent Thompson. ten years old. of
1715 W Street Southeast, was run down
and probably fatally hurt yesterday aft
ernoon by an auto driven by George Y.
Wheeler. OF 2352 Massachusetts, Avenue
Northwest. According to the police the
accident was unavoidable.
Thompson was playing with school
mates at Nichols Avenue and W Street
and did not see the auto approaching.
He ran toward a street car. loaded with
bundles of newspapers to be distributed
to newsboys at that point and stepped
into the path of the machine.
Before Mr.. Wheeler could stop the
machine, young Thompson was struck
and knocked to the ground. The lad was
unconscious when picked up. His head
struck the ground with much force
and he was bleeding from a wound Of
the scalp. First aid treatment was
given.
At Casualty Hospital physicians said
the lad probably had sustained a fracture
OF the skull and conclusion of the brain.
He has not regained consciousness.
Mr.. Wheeler is manager OF the WASH
ington Steel and Ordnance Company. He
said last night that he could not pos
sibly have avoided the accident, as he
did not see the boy until he was struck.

MR.. WILSON ACCEPTS.
President Writes University Club
He VIII Join.

That President Wilson has relented in
his determination not to accept honorary
membership in any of the Washington
clubs was proved yesterday by letter
from the President to Col. Myron NJ.
Parker president of the University Club,
in which the President accepted the
membership in that organization rendered
him.
This letter was received by Col. Parker
last night. This piece OF news was re-
ceved with pleasure by the members or
the club. 1t has been the custom to in
vite each incoming President to become
a member, and the refusal of Mr.. Wilson
would have broken the line of distin-
guished members. Former President Taft
was the first president Of the club nine
years ago, and during his residence in
the White House was counted among the
active honorary members.

UNCLE JOE" AUTH0Rf NEVER!

VIII Not Write . Book.

"Uncle Joe" Cannon believes in the
Mark Twain hundred years test OF fame
and declared yesterday that he would
not waste good paper for his reminis-
cences. because public men soon dropped
out of the public mind.
Not one book In ten Is remembered" :"
said "Uncle joe" in his most philosoph-

sand survives. 1t is a crime to cut down
forests to print so many"
Uncle joe also believes that even
Presidents can be forgotten, to say
nothing Of Cabinets. He challenged his
listeners to name the Presidents in d.
rect succession. Every one lodged the
issue and Uncle Joe" himself did not
attempt to perform the feat.
