Rare gospel manuscripts, dating
back several centuries, have come to
light in the Greek, Armenian and Sy-'
rian colonies of Chicago, the Chicago

LEAVE TEST SUIT
FILED BY TYP|ST
Navy Yard Worker Holds He
Had Three Days Due Prior
to Economy Act.

(From the $50 Edition of Yesterdays star)
Secretary of Navy Adams and two
Washington Navy Yard officials were
cited today to show cause why writ
of mandamus should not be granted
to compel the allowance of three days
leave with pay to Alfred M. Gregory,
Landover, Md, a typist at the navy
yard.
District Supreme Court Justice Jen-
nings Bailey issued the citation against
Secretary Adams, Comdr. o. M. Hust-
vedt, production officer, and Rear Ad-
miraI H. v. Butler, commandant of
the navy yard. The hearing was set
for September 10.
Gregory's application for leave had
been refused under the requirements of
the economy law, which the petition
claims is in violation of his contract
of employment, as the leave already had
accrued before the passage Of the new
law.
Gregory is a member of the National
Federation of Federal Employees and
brings the suit for himself and other
members of the association similarly
affected.
Through Attorneys William E. Leahy
and William j. Hughes, jr., the petit
toner pointed out he was employed De-
cember 18 and had more than three
days leave due him when he made ap-
plication. His superior officers refused
on the strength of the economy act, and
this refusal, he asserted, is in deroga-
tion of his contractural rights and
amounts to the taking of his property
without due process Of law.
A few weeks ago, a woman telephone
operator at the yard brought similar
suit which was allowed to drop when
Assistant United States Attorney John
j. Wilson pointed out that the ques-
ton would become moot before the
court could grant hearing, as her
term of enlistment ended August /.
The lawyers then decided to get petit
toner whose term would be sufficiently
distant as to give the Court of Appeals
time to pass on the proposition.

UNIVERSITIES TO JOIN
IN new OBSERVATORY
Chicago and Texas Schools Will
Pool Resources to Build 80-Inch
Telescope.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 8-Pooling re-
sources, the University of Chicago and
the University of Texas plan a CO.
operative new astronomical observatory
surpassed only in size by the Mount
Wilson Observatory-to search out the
secrets of the skies.
Announcement of the project was
made here last night by Vice President
Frederic Woodward of the University Of
Chicago. The observatory, he said,
would house an 80-inch rejecting tele-
scope, equal in many ways to the 100
inch Mount Wilson reflector and bet
ter for certain types Of work. 1t Is
likely the observatory will be located on
the peak of Davis Mountain, in Texas.
Under the agreement between the
two schools, Texas will advance funds
from an $4,000 bequest left the uni
versity by the late William j. McDon-
aid, prominent Texan, for the site,
buildings and equipment. The Uni
versity of Chicago will furnish a staff
for the observatory, to be known as the
wv. J. Mcdonald Observatory of the
University of Texas" 1t is expected
the observatory will be completed by
July /, 1888, at a cost Of about $375, 900.
DR.. Otto Struve, director of Chicago
University's Yerkes Observatory at Will
liams Bay, Wis, also will act as direc-
tor for the Mcdonald Observatory and
will divide his time between the two.
Chicago University also will furnish
resident assistant director, at least two
observing assistants and the necessary
maintenance staff, the announcement
said.

last night that France had abandoned
her scheme for a customs union as a

was urging the conference to examine a
Temporary plan for the whole of Europe.
Meanwhile the conference OF Is ma

The Austrian delegate said his coun-

primarily monetary, since her imports
were double her exports. She began
negotiations with Germany, Italy and
