Says That English Elections Are Practically Free From Corruption, and That We Are Improving. James Brj ee, British Ambassador to the United States, was the guest of honor of the City Club at a dinner In Manhattan last night. He spoke on "Municipal Gov ernment in (ireat Britain." Ho declared that municipal elections in England were l.iai tlcally free from corruption and that bribery and repealing were rare. Little attention, he said, was paid to party lines at local elections, ihe candidates standing on their own merits, regardless of the nalional policies they supported. An advantage which the English municipalities hurl over those of this country was that the problems over there were of slow growth, while here they developed rapidly by reason of the great Influx of immigrants.

"1 think the difficulties you have In this country in the way of municipal govern- mem. he went on, are bound to diminish and are diminishing since I first knew New York, when William M. Tweed wns the boss of his ring. I don't think can say much more than this. The outlook is distinctly more hopeful than ever before.

When asked the reason of the stagnation of reform in other cities I feel inclined to say It is because there are not enough Irish there. "It seems to me that things In this country are more and more Inclined to settlo down. They are getting Into a more stable condition. It is quite clear that the framework of your municipal governments Is much plainer in outline than thirty years ago." Ambassador Bryce said that he believed there should be a better adjust ment than now exists between the business and political Interests of American municipalities. Ihe business Interests here, he said, were too much inclined to use politics for their own needs.

There were more than two hundred persons at the dinner, and Among them were six or the eignti members or the Board of Estimate, Including Controller Prendergast. President of the Board of Aldermen John Purroy Mltchel, and Borough Presidents McAneny, Miller, Cromwell and (Jresser. Former Mayor Setb Low presided. DR. MOAK AT PATCHOGUE.

FLEXNER'S STATEMENT. Hopes Through Experimentation on Animals to Announce a Cure for Infantile Paralysis. Moved by certain misleading reports concerning the attitude ot tho organization toward vivisection, Frederick K. Bellamy, counsel of the Society for the Prevention of lie Abuse of Animal Experimentation, explained its exact position to-day: "The Bayne-llocy bill, which we sponsored," he said, "is simply a measure-for the regulation ot vivisection. VV wish to investigate the present condition and the extent of tho prat tico of vivisection In this state iu order to determine It there is any abuse of the practice.

The bill is an act to creato a commission for that purpose. It Is intended that this commission shall report to the Legislature what changes. If any, are de-uirnbln in the exislliig laws to proteci animals from unnecessary suffering. "We are Informed that there are eleven or twelve medical colleges in the stato and many public schools, iu which vivisection is performed by incompetent students and Instructors. Wo have been informed that these experiments are conducted secretly, the public not being admitted, and that a true statement of tho situation is not made to appear.

"lie. FlexTier of the ltoi kcfellcr Institute. ui'l Dr. Ewlng or Cornell -the I v. i great representatives ot those who advocate vivisection appeared at a hearing on the WU held at Albany yesterday, to oppose all Inquiry.

They publicly stated that probably not more than a dozen men in the Stale of New York were competent to perform vivisection. The condition of tho law as it siuuds at. present. Is such that anyone of tho S.D0U licensed physicians and an almost equal number of atudenis may perforin vivisection In any one of the institutions or anywhere else, with tho same auihorily nnd power exercised by properly qualified Bcieiitillu experts. Says Vivisection Should Bo Limited to Experts.

"We aro not against vivisection, but we believe that It should be limited to legitimate scientific, research by compefut experts and that Incompetent instructors and Irresponsible students should be pre vented from performing it. YVe believe that tho facts In reference to vlviiectioii should bo made known. The Bayrcn-Hoey Bill as presented, asks for the appointment of a non-paid, non-partisan commission with full authority to investigate the conditions under whiih vivisection is carried on nnd report back to the Legis lature what laws. If any. are necessary to protect legitimate scientific investigation and prevent unnecessary cruelty.

In other words w8 sock tho regulation of vivisection. "This Is the first lime in. the hi story of all this agitation that a bill has been presented which merely asks for an official Inquiry. Jt will not cost the state anHhing. All we want is to settle once and for all the question as to whether abuses exist.

Tho newspapers have Hindu It appear that I ho whole hearing at, Albany was in favor of anli-vivtsec tion. They have minimized the part taken In the hearing by Henry Hcrgh. head of the S. P. C.

and former Corporation Counsel Ellison, a prominent member of that, society, both of whom snoke in fcvfji' of tho bill. All that the S. P. A. wan! Is the facts in rofcrence to animal experimentation." Preventive for Infantile Paralysis Found, Says Dr.

Fiexner. At the hearing Dr. Simon Flexner announced that a preventive for infantile paralysis has been obtained and thai, progress in handling the disease wonl'l tie stopped by a bill preventing vivisection. This Is a disease which has long baflled the medlial fraternity and has caused great mortality among children. "In ouo year," said Dr.

Flexner. "we have found out how the disease is acquired and how It can be prevented. We have learned by a series of experinicntw the entrance of tho germ is through th. nose and throat and that It. likewise Is thrown oh" through the nose and tht jat.

Right there is the kernel for the pre ntton, tor oneo we have learned tho fliscHse is Infectious and how it la coin-' munlcable, we can proceed on tho same' basis that work Is now being done to prevent the spread of tuberculosis. We, work simply to prevent, tho Infectious agent from being carried about from oni) person to another. Dr. Flexner, It. Is said, hopes to announce a euro for infantile paralysis In a few mouths.

There was a parade that attracted much attention from tho Adams street court to the Home for Friendless Women and Children, on Concord street, at a fw mlnutcB before Ave o'clock yesterday afternoon. The line of march was along Adams street, up Johnson street and past The Eagle building, down Washington street, and thence to Concord street. The procession formed in front ot tho court, right resting at, the flats next to the Adams street police staliun, and this was the final formation: Miss Annie I. Connelly, probation officer. Ml 3.

The procession was sequel to a tragedy resulting from the sudden order Bending the troops to Mexico, for Mae Kane was arrested just as she was bidding farewell to her husband, Corporal Thomas C. Kanu of the Coast Artillery, who had been ordered to the front.

The charge against the woman was that she was a fugitive from justice in Chicago, and that, falie had passed a worthless check fur $100 on her groceryinati there. Mrs. Kant denied thu allegation and told a story which gained fur her the sympathy no! only of Magistrate Geismar, who sat in the Adams street court yesterday afternoon, but uf tho detectives who were enncerni'd iu the nrreHt, and Miss Connelly, the court's probation officer. 'Mrs. Kune explained that some time ago she loaned a coal dealer in tfouth the sum of IfSOO, which she had in the bank there, lie was to pay it back a tlie receipts from his business warranted.

She moved to Chicago with )ier husband and several times the coal dealer sent her a check for (Hit). On each occasion she used the money to pay oft household bills, and she had no idea that any of the checks would prove to be no jcoed. Wtih tin, last cheek she had re-vvlved from the coal merchant she paid off a grocery bill. Then her husband, with his company, I he Ninety-eighth Hoist Artillery, was sent to Fort Hamilton, and she moved there with him. She sold out her possessions in Chicago, and brought three or four trunks with her to Brooklyn.

The arrival of the detectives it her home yesterday was at an inop-poi'tuno time, Tor she was just bidding good-by to her husband, who was up for the journey to Mexico. Magislraie Celsmar held her until Friday as a fugitive from justice. Her babv, pretly little girl of J8 months, was with her, and while, she was before the magislraie Miss Connelly held the child. "I'm sorry 1 cannot take ball for you, madam," said the magistrate. "I'll have to hold you mil il Friday without bail." "Please don't send her and the bahv lwn to the jail," pleaded Miss Connelly, find llio detectives pleaded too.

"If you will And some other place where she can be kept, and if vou will he responsible for her I'll let her go in your custody," said tho magistrate. Miss Connelly promised, and the procession started. one or the detectives wanted tri have a hand In the helping, and so Conroy carried the baby, Tom Murray the suit case, and John Duane the bottle of milk. A YEAR NOT A YEAR. Price, Serving Sentence of Eleven Months Twenty-nine Days, Thinks It Is Illegal.

Justice Ciuy. In Manhattan, was presented with a problem to solve yesterday, when ihe application of Richard Francis Price, a disbarred lawyer, sentenced by Juctice Fawcclt on March 29, 1910, to eleven months and twenty-nine days on BlackwclM Island, for petit larceny, came before him. Had the lawyer been sentenced to one year, the maximum- penalty for bis offense, he would have been entitled to two months commutation for good behavior. Price made the claim that his sentence was illegal, as it would keep him in jail two days longer than a year, tho maximum time, and that he jhould therefore be set, free at once. He claimed that the twenty-right days ot February, counting- for a month and coming before the t.wenty-nlnlh, provided for In his made him in reality serve more than a year, whilo technically- serving 11 months and '2D days.

Justice Guy denied the motion to liberate him. Chief Clerk Charles S. Devoy ot the Kings Couniy Court, said to-day that the sentence of 11 months and 29 days was sometimes given by judges with the direct, intention of preventing commutation. When a judge believes that the caie is so serious that, the prisoner Is not entitled to judicial leniency he goes about it in this way. Tho first eleven months of such a sentence are taken as they stand, regardless of the number of iays In each monih, and then at the ex piration of the eleventh month, wenty-1 nlne days are counted ahead.

The. Idea I is not that a man is sentence-d for one day les than one year, but for 11 months and days, even If that time does go beyond the year. THANKS TO THE EAGLE. Sreeport Trade Board Recognizes Its Action in the Fort Pond Bay Matter. Freeport.

It Works Every Day but Sunday, and Maybe Women Will Have to Get Housewives in the Windsor Terrace section are doing their housecleanlng with vacuum these days. Their primary reason for doing this is to aid In Increasing the revenue of a church which owns the cleaner. The Ladies Aid Society of the Prospect Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church at Greenwood avenue and Vanderbilt street of which the Rev. Dr. William Jackson is pastor, bougnt the cleaner and presented it to the church.

The purpose of this presentation was to raise a revenue by renting it housewives of Windsor Terrace and ap plying the funds derived to the support of the church. Mrs. Thomas J. He mm a and Mrs. S.

C. Cannon are the moving spirits in this enterprising venture and now, after about a month's experience, pronounce the scheme a success. The people of the section irrespective of denomin ation, moved by a desire for cleanliness' as well as urged on by charity have mado application for the use of the cleaner, with the result that It has been busy every day of the month except on Sundays when It i3 locked up In tho home of Mtb. Hemma at 30 East Fifth street. The idea of adopting the use of the vacuum cleaner as a means of acquiring revenue for the support of the church was originally Mrs.

Cannon's, according to Dr. Jackson. She made a suggestion that tho Ladies Aid Society purchase one andwent it out. at the last meeting of the society held at her home early in February. Reminded that.

"Cleanliness Is next to Godliness," Mrs. Cannon told the members of the society that, she believed cleanliness. Godliness and charity worked hand In hand and that If cleanliness and Godliness were held up as examples of virtue worthy of consideration the people of the section would charity. The success that has attended the introduction of the scheme for raising money for the church has been unprecedented. Big Demand for House Cleaner Results From Woman's Idea.

No sooner was the cleaner purchased and lis purport noised throughout the section than there was a heavy demand for It. Five applications were hand'-d In on the first day, and for seventeen days in succession, Sunday excepted, the dual, torturer was In constant use. Then there was an Interruption. One day only was It Idle, and it has been In use every day since. It was the unanimous desire of the society members that Mrs.

Hemma keep the cleaner under her charge at her home. She supervises its use, has charge of the nitiney derived and conducts tho methods of business, such as transferring the cleaner from house to house. A corps of Bix boys are employed to remove the cleaner to the different homes, and I hey divide the week among them, each boy receiving 10 cents for his labor. Mrs. Hemma was not at home to-day when an Eaglo reporter called to learn of particulars concerning the vacuum cleaner and Its monetary results.

The Rev. Dr. Jackson was at his home, on Greenwood avenue, however, and he told of the excellent work the women have been doing for the church with the aid of the cleaner. "The women have had It Just a little more than a month, but in that time they have earned $22 and have paid for tho article. They have it now on a paying basis, and expect to rent It every day of the year.

With spring coming it is possible that the demand will be too great for the supply. In that event It is possible that another machine will purchased and a double source of revenue will be in operation. It is pleasing to think that the women are able to raise this money without undergoing hard work, such as arranging a fair or getting up a minstrel show. These sources of revenue entail too much labor." NEWS OF SHIPS AND PORTS. The Untied Tyser Line's steamship Star of Australia sailed yesterday from Pier 10.
