was an Alderman for ten years until
Two years ago, to succeed him.

was elected leader.

Almost all the residents are Jews, al

Christy got into politics under the
wing OF his brother. Florrie. They were
cousins of Big Tim. who was a cousin
OF Little TIM. Paddy was Big Tins
half-brother.
Florrie and Christy were both born.
In Ireland. When Florrie. an ex-police-
man. was elected leader OF the Eighth
II was known as the plague spot Of
the city. the centre OF the white slave
district. Florrie and his l~ieutenants
went after these places by methods Sc
lected by Florrie. a big. powerful man.
and In a short time he had driven most
OF the cadets out OF the district and
closed up most of the red light resorts.
Christy and Max Levine were Flor
rie's closest aids in this work and in
the work Of running the district. Before
Florrte died In June. 1909. Christy had
been acting leader for several years. az
Florrie's health had taken him abroad

When Florrie died Christy became
leader and the following fall ran for

he has held has been that of state
Senator. TO which he has been elected
several terms.
In the old days, with Rig Tim in
possession OF the Third, Florrie and
Christy running the Eighth. and Little
Tim with full control over the Board OF
Aldermen. the sullivan clan was some
thing TO be reckoned with each election.
Their districts followed them blindly
and they could make Tammany give

REMOVES INSANITY STIGMA.
Harmsworth Bill Allows British
Troops Special Treatment.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.
LONDON, May 5.-The text of the
Cecil Harmsworth bill to remove the
stigma of insanity from soldiers tenn
porarily deranged as the result of
nervous exhaustion has been made pub
lie. Under it's provisions a soldier or
sailor whose mind is unbalanced by
wounds, shock or similar causes can
be treated without being certified in
sane, provided the period does not ex-
ceed six months and the privilege is
not abused. It's terms apply to all per-
sons, but are designed especially to
protect the men of the service.
For many years English alienists have
been trying to bring about reform
in the treatment of the insane through
the early treatment of incipient and
undeveloped disorder. Scotland has had
a much more liberal law than England
in this respect for the past half CEN
tury.
Commenting on the bill, which has
been criticized as weakening public
protection against the insane. the Lam
Get says:
The interest awakened thereby
should do much to promote a more
sympa thetic attitude toward the gen
eral problem of the treatment of the
insane, and should materially assist
the efforts of those alienist physicians
who are striving to break down the
artificial and mischievous barriers
which, in popular belief and to a re-
grettabie extent even in medical prac-
tice, separate insanity from other con-
ditions of disease

SAYS CHRISTIAN CHURCH
ENCOURAGES PATRIOTISM
Rev. DR.. Randolph H. McKim. in
Sermon. Quotes St. Paul to Show
Justification for War.

Preaching at the Church of the
Epiphany yesterday on The National
Crisis, Rev. Or. Randolph H. Mckim.
giving his conception of the meaning
OF patriotism and duty to the country
IN times of stress. asserted that the
Christian church has always encour-
aged patriotism as a virtue.
ne church has always given high
honor to patriot soldiers who have
consecrated themselves to the defense
OF their country he said In sup
port of this ! point you to the indubi-
table fact that multitudes of Christian
men have gone out to battle for their
country with 4 good conscience and
nave felt nothing inconsistent with
ing.
urge that if war were never JUS
tifiahle-if a Christian could not draw
| ms sword in defense of his country
without disloyalty to Christ-the in
splred writer's would not have selected
the terms of war and the armor of
A soldier as symbols of the Christian
life and of Christian virtues. Fight
he good fight of faith. cries st. Paul
Tut on the whole armor of God, that
We may be able to withstand in the
evil day. and having done all to stand.
Stand. therefore. having your loins
sirded up with truth. and having on
the breastplate of righteousness: and
your feet shod with the preparation of
the Gospel of peace. above all. taking
the shield of faith. where with YOU shall
be able to quench all the fiery darts
of the wicked. And take the helmet
of salvation and the sword of the
spirit. Surely if the profession of a
soldier had been fundamentally OPP
posed to the Christian religion some
other imagery than this would have
been adopted by the inspired writer's
Opposes Peace at Any Price.
Declaring his belief in the ideals of
peace, but holding that peace is bought
too dearly when it is obtained at the price
of national honor, Rev. DR.. Mckim said ::
There can be no question that the
peace at-any-price people have done great
harm to the interests OF our country.
Doubtless they have the best intentions.
doubtless their enthusiasm is sincere
but in fact they are dreamers and un-
practical theorists, and their pacitist
movement has been seriously hurtful to
the best interests of the nation. If it be
true that they have established a con-
gressional lobby for the purpose of de-
feating appropriations for enlarging the
army or the navy or for coast fortifica-
been most seriously misdirected
Every patriot must see. under the con-
ditions that now confront us. that the
first duty of our government is to put
the country in a state of defense by
strengthening both the army and the
navy and by raising our coast fortifica-
tions to the highest standard of defense. =

ENGLISH CLERGY OPPOSES
REPRISAL, USE OF GASES
Archbishop of Canterbury Says It
Would Lower British to
Level of Enemies.

LONDON, May 1.-THE Archbishop of
Canterbury in a letter to Premier AS
quith. and the Bishop of London in a
sermon have appealed to the British
government not to make reprisals
against Germany for the use of as
phyxiating gases by authorizing the
army to adopt similar means of attack
The letter of the Archbishop of Canter-
bury said:
Most earnestly do I trust that we
shall never anywhere be induced or
drawn to take course which would
lower US toward the level of those
whom we are attacking"
The nti-German riots also were de-
uounced by the archbishop and bishop.
The prelates offered the full power of
the church to induce every person in
the kingdom to do his share in the
war now raging.

Petroleum Scarce in Berlin.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
BERLIN, April PA great scarcity
of petroleum prevails i'll Berlin. Ac-
cording to some reports it cannot be
bought in the shops at all. Notwith-
standing the scarcity. however, the
price has been held uniformly at 30
pfennigs per litre since the war began.
But there is now a movement on foot
to raise it to so pfennigs. 1t is eN-
plained that the German branch of the
Standard Oil Company purposely kept
down the price. so that petroleum
might not be displaced during the war
by gas or electricity.
