GAELAUDET ALUMNI
END ANNUAL REUNION
Another Wedding Marks the Closing
Day of Festivities of Semi
Centennial.

The twenty-ffth annual reunion OF
alumni in celebrating OF the semi-cen,
tenniaI of Gallsudet College wound up
yesterday with the passage of resolu-
tions and the election OF officers. after
which the old grads departed, more
than 100 Of them accompanying the men,
oers Of the faculty on a special train TO
Stauntcn, Va, to attend at the annual
convention of instructors to the deaf.
The first convention of the kind in this
country was held in Staunton fifty-elght
years ago.
For the second time in the four days
occupied by the reunion, Cupid yesterday
took a hand in the proceedings. the
marriage OF two of the younger members
OF the alumni association taking place in
Hanline NJ E. Church. The principals
were Miss Edith r. Knox, of Cleveland,
and Vernon S. Birk. a former Gallaudet
baseball and football star. -
The following officers were elected by
the alumni association: President, DIR.
J. Schuyler Long. SO, Of Iowa; first vice
president, ]. NJ. Stewart. 80. OF Michi-
gan; second vice president, Mrs. Sylvia

the highest market price for the nomi-
nation.
The suizer observation was that big
Democrats and rich ones. too-men really
big enough for Senator-hesitated about
going into the campaign or paying the
Murphy price. because they feared this
was not going to be very good year
for Democrats in the great state Of New
York.
His View ID shared.
The sulzer views comedies with that
Of many others who continue IN the DEM
ocratic faith. and he only reports what
any one can learn In going UP and down
the business thoroushfares Of Manhat-
tan Island.
Sulzer can be forgiven the bubblins
over expressions Of confidence In his own
election as the independent candidate for
governor. and no doubt he will have votes
enough TO give the regular Tammany or
ganiZation distress II not defeat but his
chief achievement will be the election OF
several Republican congressmen from
Gotham town and in aiding the arrival
OF a Republican governor at Albany In
January !, 1915.
SulZer il willing to concede the election
of a Republican Senator whether Sena-
tor Root finally decides TO accept the
nomination or keeps out altogether. and
along. with this concession and back
handed prediction Sulzer indicated very
forcibly his opinion that the Hon. JEFF
ferson Levy had best stick to his COM
pact little East Side Congressional dis
trict this year OF our Lord. and not
spread himself out as a candidate for
Senator. No one knows the Levy district
better than Sulzer. as he represented It at
Washington for sixteen years, and knows
every voter legal or otherwise within Its
boundaries. Hence II the Hon. William
and the Hon. Jefferson come together
some day later this week on the East
Side the SuIzer speech will be fervid II
not effusive In demanding that Jefferson
NJ. shall begin business at once for an
other term In the House.
Possibly Sulzer may even offer to throw
his independent vote to Levy. but his
district is so safely Democratic that once
Levy is permitted by Tammany to be q
candidate there will be no worry about
the election whatever happens In the
sulzer reach for another whiri in ofiicial
life.

NEWMAN JURY
AWAITS charge
Siddons' Testimony Turned
Against Commissioner
by Bailey.
JOLTS RESIDENCE PLEA
Counsel for Defense. However. Con-
tends that Constructive Residence
Was Sufficient Under Statute.

Commissioner Slddons' testimony on
behalf Of Commissioner Oliver P. New
man was used with some effect by former
Senator Joseph w. Bailey. OF Texas, in
his efforts TO convince Justice Gould yes
terday that Commissioner Newman Is not
qualified by sufficient legal residence for
the commissionership.
On Wednesday Mr.. Siddons related a
conversation he had with Mr.. Newman
In Baltimore in the summer ofslsl3 while
the latter was attending the Democratic
convention. He testified that Mr.. New
man told him he was coming back 70
Washington right after election, IL II
went the right way. Senator Bailey read
from Mr.. Siddons testimony apparently
in an attempt to show that Mr.. New
mans intention as to residence here then
depended on the success OF the Demo-
cratic tickt.
Intention Cuts No Figure.
Mr.. Bailey's main contention was
though, that intention cut no figure at all
in the controversy, that the statute re-
quIred actual residence for three years
next preceding appointment. and that Mr..
Newman did not actually reside here that
long.
Attorney jackson II. Ralston. OF coun-
sci for Mr.. Newman. cOntended that con-
struetive residence was sufficient under
the statute. and that Mr. Newman did
not give up his residence here when he
went TO Chicago in 1911. During the ar
gument Mr.. Bailey and Mr.. Ralston
clashed several times
Both delved deep into the authorities
for precedents and cited many to the
court. At 2:3O o'clock Justice Gould dis
charged the jury and a few minutes
later adjourned court until this morning,
when he will instruct the Jury.
At the close OF the argument counsel
for William J. Frizzell. taxpayer. who Is
maintaining the custer suit. offered sew
eral prayers. which the court took un-
der advisement. The other side put in
no prayers. leaving instructions entirely
to the justice.
Senator Bailey asked the court to in
struct the jury that the commissioner
was not eligible unless he had been an
actual resident for at least three years
next preceding his appointment. also
that his intention. when he left here in
1911. as to returning. was wholly imma-
terial.
Large Crowd Attends.
A large crowd gathered to hear Sena-
tor Bailey, who openea the argument.
He urged the court to consider the in
tent Of the statute, which he said was
to make sure that the people of the Dis
trict should have two OF their own num-
Der for commissioners He claimed that
to be eligible for a coInmissiOnship one
must have actually lived here the whole
Of the three preceding years.
Attorney Ralston lIkened Commission
er Newman's case to one OF a man Ieay-
ing his business here to spend a week
or month or two at the seashOre with
his wife or for his health. without in
tending to abandon the District as his
home.

TURKISH ARMY RANKS NINETEENTH

Turkeys army and navy are both ranked nine
teenth among the armies and navies OF the world
the Boston Globe remarks While her army Is
fairly well organized and has a war strength of
100000, which is only 10000 behind that OF Great
Britain, her fleet is practically non-existent. In
fact until 1910 the sultan had systematically dis
mantled the navy, for fear that 1t would turn
against him as 1t had turned against his predeces
sor. AbdulAziz.
The peace strength of Turkeys army is 100000
men. She is able to draw upon 100000 reserves
Bringing her war strength up to 100000 The
population Of Turkey is little more than 25,000,
900. and Of this number fully 2.O00.i zoo could be
drawn In case of necessity.
Before the new regime was inaugurated in 1910
military service had been obligatory on all Mus
sulmans, Christians being excluded, but under
obligations to pay military exoneration tax OF
$3.50 for every 1875 males between the ages of
fifteen and seventyfye. Under the new regime
however, all "0ttomans' are subject to military
service, although under certain conditions exemp-
tion is purchasable.
Active service in the Turkish armt ists nine
years or this the soldiers are three or four
years with the colors and the resi- OF the time
they are reserves. In cases of necessity all males
up In the age of seventy can be called upon to
Join the colors.
The navy has been on the decline ever since
