CHAPLAIN BLAMEs CHURCHES.
SAYS Work on Border Was Not Given
Proper Support.

NEW YORK, January 9.-The churches
did not play fair with the chaplains
on the border and did not support their
work morally or financially as they
should" it was asserted by the Rev. j.
Madison Hare chaplain of the 4th New
Jersey Infantry, at a luncheon given
by the Clergy Club to chaplains of the
army and the National Guard here yes
terday.
He defended the state troops by say
ing that the criticism to which they
have been subjected was due to the
fact that they We're expected to accom-
plish in two months what the regular
army takes six months to do. Eventu
ally he said. we shall have to go into
Mexico
The Rev. William T. Crocker chap
lain of the list Infantry. said that
to go into Mexico would be a crime"
All the outlawry, he said, was not on
the Mexican side of the border.
DR.. William T. McCord of the 7th
Regiment declared the patriotism of the
men in this country was evidenced by
the response to the Presidents call to
the border. He asserted there was
no real crisis, and the young men
could not convince themselves there
was reason to drop their business and
go" The reason. he said. the troops
did not go to the border as quickly
as scheduled was because the regular
army made it hard for them to get
ready"
