Pope Orders Teaching
of Thomistic Theology
Special to The Telegraph

Rome, July 6.-The Osservatore Ro-
mano, semioficial organ of the Vati-
an, published a papal motu proprio
on the teaching of theology, prescrib-
ing that all teachers of that subject in
universities, colleges and seminaries
must adopt for their text the "Summa
Theological of st. Thomas Aquinas.
The privilege of granting academical
end theological degrees enjoyed by in
situations and faculties of religious or
ders will be revoked unless h above
papal instructions are carried out
within the next three years.
This pontifical document will be the
cause of much excitement in those
Catholic universities and institutes
where the teaching of the Thomistic
theology has been almost abandoned,
and in view of the pope's precise in
junction to teachers of theology to re-
turn to st. Thomas doctrine another
crisis in Catholic thought is likely.

Commissioner NJ. Harvey Taylor, SUI
perintendent of parks and public prop
erty, is hopeful of arranging a salts
factory solution by acquiring the earth
from the subways for Fill" purposes
along the river front above Maclay
street.
Considerable unfavorable comment
is heard in municipal circles over the
delay in the river wall work growing
out of a slight change of line from a
point near Muench street to a point
near Maclay.
The Dispute
1t appears that the dispute is over
the form of the order to change the
line, the contractors insisting that
they should have a definite under
standing before proceeding with the
work. 1t is not improbable that the
contracts may be given the order to
resume work where they stopped last
winter rear State street and to COM
plete that stretch between thai point
to Herr street, the southernmost
boundary of the "H~ardscrabble" dis
trict.
1t was stated this afternoon, how
ever, that an agreement would prob
ably be reached before tomorrow
morning so that the work can proceed
from the point of dispute near Muench
street, northwardly.

d you know what perjury

The witness answered that she did.
The district attorney then asked sew
eral times If she had not told him
previously that Mrs. Carman was pres
ent. The witness said she didn't re-
member. Her memory was faulty re-
garding the things Levy had talked
about, but she was sure Mrs. Carman
had never spoken to her about the
shooting n that the physicians wife
had not asked her about what she had
seen the night of the murder.
when did you change your mind
about what you told me Mrs. Carman
had told you and when did you lose
your memory? Who told you to
change your statement" asked Mr..
Smith.
Nobody" said the negroes.
The witness admitted she had
signed a paper for Mr.. Levy without
reading it or without having it read
to her.
Doctor Fired Upon
Despite assertions of DR.. Carman
that several shots were fired at him
last night by a man on a bicycle near
Rockville Center, while returning to
his home here after visiting a patient,
at Roosevelt, District Attorney Smith
and Sheriff Petit to-day declared they
were still firm in the belief that it waS
a woman who shot and killed Mrs.
Bailey in DR.. Carman's office last
Tuesday night.
Sheriff Petit to-day admitted that
the investigation had narrowed down
to three points, each of which leads
to the same person or persons and
from information now in his hands he
was led to believe hat an arrest would
be made soon. 1t also became known
to-day detectives in the employ of the
district attorney are engaged in u
ming down all clues along the three
lines indicated by Sheriff Petit.
Mrs. Jennie Duryea, mother of Mrs.
Bailey, testified at the inquest to-day
that her daughter had been complain
ing of feeling bad and hat it was
she who urged her to go to a doctor.
Bailey Takes Stand
william ID. Bailey, husband of the
murdered woman, said his wife had
not complained to him of feeling ill,
and he was not aware that she had
ever known of DR.. Carman.
Madeline Bailey, 17-year-old daugh-
ter of the Baileys, said hat her moth
err had never mentioned DR.. Carman's
name to her.
The next witness, Miss Hazel
Combs, said she arrived at DR.. Car
mans office about Z o'clock and a
man and woman she did not know
were in the waiting room. She said
she saw Mrs. Carman walking around
the house and saw her admit a man
patient (Golder) and go into DR.. Car
mans office to answer the telephone,
before the doctor came out Of the
diningroom. Mrs. Carman denied on
the stand that she ever entered her
husbands office since she saw Mrs
Variance, the nurse, kiss him.
Charles Anderson, a negro youth,
then testified that as he was passing
the Carman house about s O'Clock last
Tuesday night he heard a report he
thought was caused by a fire cracker,
He looked in the yard and saw a man
running toward the back fence. The
man jumped over the fence and An
derson later saw him emerge from an
alley in the next street.

Octarora Association. No. 90 ~, of
Harrisburg, will likely be represented.
The convention promises to be a
lively one, as all but twenty-one Of
the subordinate associations withdrew
from the national association last
July when the 1915 convention met
in Reading. This action will be dis
cussed.
Chief HG-maker Tindle attended
court in Philadelphia, having been
summoned to explain the action
taken by the subordinate organiza-
tons. The split in the national
body was because of alleged unjust
taxation. The per capita tax was
raised from 5 to rs cents per mem
Der, and this action of the national
body the Pennsylvania associations
objected to. If asked to, Mr.. Tindle
will surrender the Pennsylvania State
charter, which will mean that an in
dependent body will be formed.

FRIEDMAN IMMUNE
FROM PROSECUTION
Statute of Limitations Runs Against
Most of Alleged Irregularities
of Former School Head
Special TO The Telegraph

Washington, July 6.-Unless further
details of his alleged irragularity
come to light, Moses Friedman, who
was deposed some time ago from the
superintendency of the Carlisle Indian
School, will not be prosecuted by the
Department of Justice. This does not
mean that Mr.. Friedman a been
ex~onerated, but Attorney General Nc
REYNOLDS has decided that the statute
of limitations has run against all of
the most eriou offenses alleged TO
have been committed by Mr.. Fried
man. .
Secretary of the Interior Lane is
waiting now to get from h Depart
ment of Justice a detailed report on
the legal aspects of the charges
brought against the ousted superlnteh-
dent. The report, it is known, VIII set
forth that abundant evidence was
brought forward 10 convict Mr.. Fried
man of gross irregularities In the
of the institution, but
will explain that the particular Oh
lenses charged are now covered by the
statute of limitations.
Expected to Go Free
Mr.. Friedman's unwarranted pro-
ceedings were established to the sat
lEldCllOH VI Ills
partment of the Interior, and later
to the satisfaction of Mr.. McReynolds
by the testimony of Chief Clerk MIL
Ter, Siceni Nori, an indian clerk at
tached to the school, and several otn-
er witnesses. all of whom were eX-
amined by Cato Sells, the Commls-
sioner of Indian Affairs. This evil
dence resulted in Friedman's removal
from office, but all the indications nov
are that he will suffer no criminal
punishment.
Siceni Nori himself committed many
of the acts charged against the de-
posed superintendent. but his testl-
mony showed that they had been IN
stigated by Mr.. Friedman. There are
some other charges as to acts said not
to be covered by the statute of limi-
t%ations. but the Department of Jus
tice feels that insufficient evidence mas
been brought forward. There is a
disposition in certain quarters to LOOK
a little further into these uncovered
charges, but the prevailing impression
seems to be that Friedman Will go
scot free.

.D|XON DISCUSSED
THE PESKY FLIES
Says That They Are Responsible
For a Whole Lot of Our Trou-
bles in These Days

DR.. Samuel G.. Dixon, State Com
missioner of Health, gave a broadside
at h fly before starting for his va
cation. The Commissioner called at
tention to the dangers attending the
fly and CAV this statement as a mid
summer thought:
Behold how great a matter a little
fire kindleth."
For several years past the cam
paign against the fly has been waged
with unceasing vigor until the major
ity of us have come to realize how
dangerous this disgusting little insect
may be.
"Decency and health demand that
1t be abolished and whoever is respon-
slble for the liberation of its breeding
places Is a public enemy. However,
before o criticise your neighbor
make a tour of your own back yard.
OF course your garbage can is properly
provided with a lid. No? Well,
sanitation begins at home. Seek no
further until this is remedsed for
here is the source of much of your
trouble.
Uncovered garbage cans and make
shift substitutes are the breeding
places for millions upon millions Of
flies during the summer months.
Where the prompt removal of this
kitchen refuse is impossible II should
be kept in a tightly closed receptacle.
A little kerosene poured over 1t every
day or so will prevent the flies from
breeding.
There are many other breeding
grounds-dirty stables, insanitary out
houses, ETC., but none more common
than the uncovered garbage can. One
screened n pit will do more to
exterminate flies than a car load Of
swatters, no matter how enthusiastic
cally welded.
d your share in the work of de-
stroying these dangerous pests by
cleaning out their breeding places"

Special to The Telegraph

Washington, d. c., July 6.-Repub-

drift of public sentiment is against
the Democratic party and they are
sanguine that they will win the House
in the November elections.
There is no longer any doubt that
the Republicans will make the tariff
in it's relation to business the para
mount issue of the coming campaign.
Twenty years ago a Democratic House
was succeeded by a Republican ma
jority. This followed the enactment
of the Democratic tariff law known
as the Wilson act. This law proved
to be the undoing of the Democratic
party and Grover Cleveland spent the
last two years of his administration
with a Republican majority in the
