EPISCOPAL CONVENTION
TO DEBATE SUFFRAGE
Move On to Give Women Vote
in Parish Affairs.

discussed at the 132d Episcopal Dioos-
san Convention, which opens at the Ca
thedral Of ST. John the Divine. at 10
a. m. to-day. Bishop David II. Greer
will celebrate communion. Those Of
the 500 clergymen and lsymen who
favor equal suffrage in parish elec-
lions will argue that since women DO a
large share OF church work, they are
entitled 20 a vote. In most other di-
oceses suffrage has been given to wom
en-.
The cooperation Of the New York
diocese in the proposed pension fund
for clergymen is another topic that
will come up for action.

Huntington, Stephen Baker, George Ia
briskie, Francis Lynde Stetson, Ed

Dust them.
These opinions were embodied In a
letter read at yesterdays session OF
the Public Health Council III the
Academy Of Medicine by DR.. Frank
Overton. State Sanitary Supervisor.
Experts from New Jersey had come
over 70 tell their Manhattan confreres
what measures they had found most

at is amusing TO an old hayseeder,"
he wrote, who fought mosquitoes for
more than three-quarters of a century
to hear these educated idiots talk
about discriminating them. They may
reduce the number OF mosquitoes IN
different localities by emptying few
water tubs, filling up some mud holes
and kerosening a few frog ponds and
their own gardens, but cXtcrminate the
mosquito? Never.

Pleas Of not guilty were entered By
Max Breitung. Dr.. Herbert Krlenrle'
Lieutenant Rober, Fay. Engeloert
Bronkhorst and Waiter Seholz when
they were arraigned yesterday before
Judge Harland b. Howe IN the Fed
eral Court on charges that they con-
spired to cripple and destroy ships

sixth alleged conspirator, will be ar
raigned to-day before Judge Carpen-
ter, in Jersey City. and an effort will
be made TO extradite him TO this city,
TO be tried jointly with the others.
Counsel for the alleged conspirator'
fought TO have the bail Of their clients
reduced from $4,000. but Judge Howe
held that the crimes OF which the
men were accused were Of very seri
Gus nature, and refused TO decrease
the amount.

"P. s. hate tho li,tle cuss, but

Brown character stically.
Most of the days discussion was de
voted TO considering an amendment 20
the State Sanitary Code competing
owners. lessees. agents. contractors or
others having control Of salt marshes
or inland swamps 20 drain them, tha'
the breeding Of mosquitoes might be
stopped. With one exception, the
speakers at the public hearing favored
the amendment. Archibald {. Weeks
declared loudly that Brookhaven would
mot spend five cents 10 eliminate the
non-disease purveying salt and fresh
water mosquitoes" Whether he meant
the township OF Brookhaven. which
contains Patchogue and $4,000 souls,
or the village with its citizenry OF $50,
he did not specify.
From this 1t may be gathered that
there are two varieties OF mosquito

ing range OF fifteen miles. How far

out at the hearing. DR.. r. W. Ge.s
of Union County, Y. j.. said it was less
vicious than its seefaring cousin.
When Nr. Weeks, who said thu
amendment was contrary TO the Con
stitution and was waste OF money
and others, who told how beneficial i
would be. had finished, 1t was announc
cd that il would cost s3s5,00O. or Sl'
an acre, to rid the metropolitan DIS
trict Of mosquitoes. No estimate ma
been made for draining swamps else
where in the state. DR.. Hermann

SIN as symbol OF progress ia the
feature OF lons statement on condi-
tions in Mexico issued by the State De
psrtmeut to-day After citing numerous
instances Of improved conditions due to
Carranza rule, he department adds:
"ln the capital and in all Of the large
cities and towns under the control Of
the Carranzista.. law and order have
been restored n rapidly as possible.
Some parts o. The rural districts still
have rowing bandits whom The soldiers
have been unable 20 apprehond and eN-
terminate Various bandits hanging
from telegraph poles on the railroad
right of way however, show that prog
rcss is being made in their cXtermina-
ton"
The statement is unusual in that il
speaks confidently Of what Carranza
will do in the future. The statement
says:
"Conditions in Mexico are such as
might be expected in any country that
has passed through about six years Of
civil war Those hopeful for the res
torstion OF order and OF Mexico's for
mer prosperity believe that there now
is a chance for them to improve. In
Mexico City the famine is thing Of
the past. Now, through government
officials. there is food for everybody,
and the improvement OF the railroad
service makes it certain that food con-
ditions will be better every day.
while business is not fiourishing,
compared with former years in Mex
leo City, il is probably better than IT
has been at any other time since the
trouble started.
Restoration OF railroad service
throughout the country will not only be
the big step toward resuming normal
conditions, but II will also be the
barometer of peace and order in the
country. Railroads have been in the
last few weeks transferred from the
military 10 the civil authorities. The
latter are now attempting to get them
on a running schedule, working under
the most discouraging handicaps.
"Of the former equipment Of the
great national system OF railroads
more than two-thirds of the engines,
cars. rolling stock and stations have
been destroyed. One-half, at least, OF
what is left is still being used by the
military. Shortage Of freight cars and
locomotives is holding back the re-
sumption of the normal commerce OF
the country.
The warehouses AT Vera Cruz are
already crowded to their capacity; the
Ward Line boats have resumed weekly
sailings, and they are loading hun
dreds Of tons there every trip. The
railroad is helpless 10 move more than
small portion Of freight toward the
interior Practically every mile Of

RIGGS BANK HELPED
NEEDY POLITICIANS
Played Nc Favorites as Between
Parties-Three Iowans
Among Borrowers.

Washington. ID. c.. May 1s.-The
controversy between h Riggs bank
and Secretary McAdoo and Comptrol-
Ter Williams has partly taken on the
form of a war of ord and state
ments. The bank in its latest state
ments defends it, course in making
loans to officials, says it did not try
to influence them and also that in the
answer filed by the treasury officials
in court they list only loans to certain
republicans. whereas they have loaned
to republicans and democratic officials
and congressman.
Three Iowans are involved in the
borrowings from the bank. They are:
Leslie M. Shaw, Robert B. Armstrong,
former assistant secretary of the
treasury. and A. F. Slater, formerly
of Sioux City, for a time an assistant
of the treasurer. All their loans We're
repaid. The Shaw. Armstrong and
Slater loans were obtained while in
office, but have nothing to do with the
actual proceedings in court at this
time, except that they are brought forth
by treasury officials to shed light on
the banks methods.
