MaSOnS Are Refused
Stone in Monument

Secretary of War Garrison has de-
MED the request of the Grand Lodge
Of Masons Of Louisiana for permission
to place a memorial stone in the Wash
ington Monument.
In refusing the request Secretary Gar.
rison has written a letter explaining
that there is no authority for the grant
ing of,,requests of secret or patriotic
orders to place slabs in the monument
in the absence of a Congressional act.
and that no such permission has been
granted since the compilation of the
mortal blocks still remained on the
ground unplaced for which provision
had been made by Congress. Since
that time, Secretary Garrison said, the
War Department had adopted the policy
OF permitting only States OF the Union
and foreign governments to place
stones in the monument.

 has expressed herself as tired with life, and had ha11ucinations that none cared for her. As late as yesterday sine had told her nurse;
 T would like to take something and put an end to it all.''
 At other times she had expressed great feaE at the possibility of going insane. At times she even suspected that the nurse, who was paid by the family to attend her, did not wish to be in the house. Miss Donahue to-
 day described this to the fact that she had told the family she soon would have to leave because of another case that she had contracted for some time in advance. si
 According to Mrs. Fitzgerald, who
 has. seen much of Mrs. Chatlos re- l gently; she kept her secret well con- tealed, for these who had occasion to visit the house were always met in the most cheerful and happy man nef.
 Mfr. Chat1os, whose contracting and building business had taken him away from the house at an early hour 1 this morning was not informed of the affair until he reached the Bridgeport hospital, where he had been told that his wife was very ill Though much broken down over the incident he bore up well under the trying cir eNnstances and was constantly beside | his wife's cot at me4nenB when ii l was safe te permit his close prexim- 1 tty.

ST. AGNES INFANT ASYLUM IS IDEAL
 FOR STATE NEEDS
Mrs. M./ III. Ford Speaks Be- fore Charities Organiza-
 tion Society.

\ At an open meeting of the Charities Organization society yesterday, Mrs. M. H. Ford, who was one of the Con- necticut delegates to the recent nation al conference of Charities and Corree- tions at Baltimore, discussed the care of dependent children interestingly, and dwelt at length on the new insti- tuition for that purpose in Hartford, St. Agnes Infant asylum.
 Mrs. Ford pointed out that the state now for the first time has an institu- ton where proper care may be given to children up to the age when they
 may be taken care of in the orphan asyIuns. Hitherto, in most cases, de- pendent children were cared for in the poor houses of cities and towns.
 Mrs. Ford said, in part: 'tThts St. Agnes home, while built by the Cath ollie diocese of Hartford, is non-sec- tartan in the admission and care of the children, the state, counties and towns sending the children there at a special price arranged for, as in the case of boarding out the children in families here and elsewhere. It was with a. feeling of g1adness for the homeless little ones, that I saw the bright sun parlor, rooTny screened porches the number and variety of toys to amuse, the perfect sanitary arrangem ents for preparing and car- ing for their food, and the evidence of care given their little bodies.
 'sThe kindergarten for the children, large enough for its exercises, was a delight, and their proficiency in their lessons, drills, and even dancing, would l have done credit to the children in tour best fami1ies.' few of whom could show healthier, better nourished | children than these little ones whom nobody owns but God.
 Another department of this insti- tuition fills still another need, and is
 doing a splendid work along another | line. That is their maternity ward l wherethe unfortunate girl who has made the false step and who is left Ito bear the burden. of her sin alone lis sheltered, cared for in her hour o1 l trial as carefully and slzillfully as he1
 more fortunate sisters, and, on hel
 recovery, if she has neither home ol | friends to take her in, is given work | in the institution to keep her witt
 her baby and give it a mothers care
 till it is old enough to be cared for by l others. Helping her at the same time to begin life again with new vision, to realize her responsib ibi1ities J towards her offspring, and, if she il i intelligent and adaptible training hel
 in some work that she may re-entel

NEW EVIDENCE. IS FOUND TENDING TO
 EXCULPATE BEUTE
Saloonkeeper May Not Have Inflicted Fatal Wounds
 on Sullivan.

After Coroner J. J. Phe1an- had de- cided yesterday afternoon to make his finding today in the case Of Patrick Sullivan, whose body was found in the rear of a saloon, evidence obtained by Detective Edward o. Cronan en- tirely changed the aspect of the case and will be of the most vital impor- tance. e
 That Sullivan not only was held up and robbed on the last, few days pre- cedtng his death, but that he had been in two fights, has been ascertatned by Detective Cronan. Detective Peter Hall has been Investigating also, and he has procured information that may be of value.
 As result of the disclosure, another hearing will be held on the case by the coroner tomorrow evening. A wit ness who has already testified will be returned to the stand.
 Detectives Cronau and Hall have as- certained that Sullivan entered the and Broad street, on Tuesday night, the day previous to that on which Martin Blute threw him out of the Middle street saloon. He was cut and bleeding copious1y: NfcQueeney and others in the, saloon went to his aid and wiped the blood from his face Sullivan told them:
 ''f had a run in with a couple of fe1- lows on Water street They robbed me and took my money" It has also been ascertained that on the following morning Wednesday, he entered the Blute saloon early. He was badly disdgured about the head and pointed to his wounds when he asked for drink. He told the bar | tender: ,. tI have no money to pay for a. drink but need it. was held up an6 robbed last night
 He related a similar story to thae which he had told in AGcQueeney's sa- loon the night before.
 All trace made so far by the police has failed to reveal those who rnigh1 have been responsible for his condi- 1 ton, or in just what locality the rob- ebry took place. He was thrown from Blute's saloon on Wednesday nfght l and was found on Thursday morning dead.
 It has also been learned that su1li- van was in an a1tercation on Monday but the parties implicated have no1
 been located.

 'tHe was also able to do so by offer ing an advanced price which would make up for any inconveni ience the companies might have in explaining their failure to deliver the goods to their original customers.
