TRIALS
CAUSE RUSSIA
MUCH WORRY
One Thousand From Mount
Athos Are Charged
With Heresy.
RUSSIAN SYNOD Is
BEING CRITICIZED

n T PETERSBURG, Russia, April II.
In spite OF Its many grave pre-
- occupations. both at home and
aborad Russian public opinion has been
deeply moved by the announcement OF
the holy synod that a number Of monks
from Mount Athos are to be tried be-
fore the synod's court at Moscow for
heresy.
Last year about this time a move
ment broke out among the Russian
monks IN tho numerous sketes at Athos
in favor Of recognizing Gods name as
the living God.
Book Starts Movement.
The spiritual father of the movement
was a certain Caucasian hermit, father
ulariOn, who wrote q book which
found great favor in various mOnas-
tries including the St. Mary and st.
Martha convent, where the priOress is
the dOwager grand duchess SerEiUs.
The leader of the movement at Athos
was brother Anthony, formerly an Of
ficer in the ears Hussar regiment OF
the guards, who, having read the book,
became so convinced Of the truth of Its
nOminalistic theology that he at once
started a propaganda among the breth-
rem, and soon gained majority among
them.
Soldiers Arrest Monks.
The result Of the split and the en-
suing heated discussions came to the
fOrcible election of the minority from
their sketes and from the Russian
PanteleimOn monastery, which in its
turn led to the Intervention of the
Russian holy synod. The latter has
no jurisdiction, either temporal or &c
clesiastical, at AthOs, which is, and
has been since 1890, an autonomous
republic and which in spiritual mat

pie. Nevertheless the holy synod, with
the consent it is true, Of the Ecu
menical Patriarch, induced the Russian
government to dispatch gunboat and
200 soldiers to Athos, who then had
over 1000 monks arrested and brought
to Odessa.
That was in the summer Of last year,
since when a number of monks went
of their own free viii to Siberia, while
the remainder who held their schema"
from the holy synod have been kept in

Public Opinion Divided.
Public opinion in Russia is neither
inclined to condone the high handed
methods which the holy synod has used
for procuring the monks from the holy
mount nor does it feel certain that
the heresy professed by brother An
thongs followers is really very dan
gerous. For two years father Illar-
ions book was allowed to circulate
freely. and even found favor with some

teachings were, in fact, never dis

which they found was at
the hands of a church magazine and
one of the numerous .archbishOps who
acted in his private capacity as a

Justice Hughes Is
Supreme Court Baby;
Is 81 Years of Age

New York, April 1L-Charles Evans
Hughes associate justice OF the United
States supreme court, and former governor
of New York. was born at Glens Falls, N
Y. 50 years ago today. He is the baby
Of Uncle Sans supreme bench, although
far from being the least dignified in de-
meanor. In fact, justice Hughes's aloof-
ness and sOlidlty were made much Of by
his enemies in those days when he was
active in politics. and the brilliant Alfred
Henry Lewis asserted that he bears the
same relation to the ordinary flesh and
blood man that canned peaches hear to
peaches on the tree" Few men have been
so bitterly attacked as Hughes. and it was
doubtless with something OF relief that he
left the political arena behind and entered
the calm atmosphere Of the supreme court.
Justice Hughes first attained general
prominence when he was appointed counsel
gated the cost OF gas in New York city
strong committee Of the New York legis-
lature and his work In investigating ths
conduct Of insurance companies resulted in
many startling revelations This was fol-
lowed by an appointment as counsel for the
federal investigation into the business OF
the coal carrying railroads In 1896 he was
elected governor Of New York and was re-
elected two years later From the eNecu-
tive mansion at Albany he went in 1910 TO
Washington to sit on the supreme bench
Justice Hughes was educated at Colgate and
Brown universities and Columbia law school.
and commenced his legal career 80 years
ago.
