MISCELLANEOUS. MISCELLANEOUS. STUDENTS AT WESLEYftN CEMETERY GATE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD AND DIRECT PRIMARIES 1 1 iff Bulletin. A TRAIN FOR EVERYBODY. Convenience, comfort, time, and cost are important considerations in travel.

For the business man whose time is limited the fastest train with its additional conveniences is a necessity. For the tourist traveling for pleasure, or the family, the slower train with equal conveniences and lower fare appeals more strongly. The service of the Pennsylvania Railroad between Brooklyn and Chicago accommodates all classes. The busy man takes the "Pennsylvania Special" because it leaves after office hours one day and arrives in Chicago before office hours, the next morning, and provides all possible conveniences, including a stenographer to continue his correspondence free en route. The less strenuous and the family party will take "The Pennsylvania Limited," the world's standard passenger train, which is just as luxuriously appointed, providing all the comforts and conveniences of home or hotel.

It leaves at 10:45 A.M. and arrives in Chicago at 8 :45 the next morning. For those who prefer an afternoon departure, there is the "Chicago Limited," all Pullman cars, which leaves at 4 :45 P.M. and arrives in Chicago at 4:00 P.M. the next day.

The "Chicago Special," leaving at 7 :45 A.M., gives a daylight ride through the picturesque Allegheny Mountains, and provides both Pullman and coach accommodations. The Express" with Pullman cars, dining car, and coaches and no extra fare, leaves at 5:45 P.M., and is one of the most popular trains in the service. Then there is the "Chicago Express" leaving at 1 :45 P.M., with sleeping cars, dining car, and coaches, and the "Pacific Express," leaving at 7:45 P.M. The Pennsylvania route is the short line to Chicago, and its roadbed is rock ballasted from the Hudson River to Lake Michigan. falling health compelled him to give up active business life.

He resided for many years In Brooklyn, during which time he was connected with Central Congregational Church, In which he was an active worker. He was also secretary of the Sunday school of that church for many years. He leaves a widow and three sons S. Earl Bennett, William LeRoy and Edward Marvin Bennett to mourn his loss. The remains will be brought to Rockville Centre.

Rev. Benjamin F. Eingsley. Lynn, February 26 The Rev. Benjamin F.

Kingsley, pastor of the M3ple Street Methodist Episcopal Church in this city, died last night. He was born in Hartford, in 1857. He had held pastorates in Worcester. Holyoke, Lawrence and Lowell. He leave, a widow and one daughter.

UE GRASS 1RYE Unchanged by Food Laws, it is now and always has been Absolutely Pure and Unadul terated. PROU CO. Nw POWERS MAY INTERVENE European Diplomats More Hope- ful Over Balkan Situation. It Is Now Believed There Will Be No War Russia Still Non-Committal. Berlin, February 26 The Foreign Office tiaa not yet received any word from St.

Petersburg or Belgrade that the Russian government has declared that Servie can not hop' tor support from Russia In the event of an outbreak of hostilities between Austria-Hungary and Servia. It 1h, apparent that the question Is being permitted to drift, and In this circumstance Is Been the only serious danger. The declaration of policy made in the Parliament yesterday by M. No vakovlch, the new premier, is considered fairly moderate in view of the excited itate of Servian feelings. Servian students in the Polytechnic school at Coethen have received telegraphic orders to join the colors, and It Is reported that many Austrian stu dents in Germany are homeward bound In the" expectation of war.

The best official opinion here, however, continues confident that there will be no war between Austria-Hungary and Servla. St. Petersburg, February 26 A much More hopeful view prevails in diplomatic ilrcles In St. Petersburg to-day concern-jug the Austro-Hungarlan-Servian crisis, due to the probability of the successful issue of the current negotiations for the. Intervention of the powers.

Russia, in principle, has agreed to Join in the representations at Belgrade for the preservation of peace. Whether the Russian representations will go so far as to fcjjviae Servia to disarm and formally renounce her aspiration for territorial com- fonsation from Austria-Hungary Is a uestlon still being discussed among the owers. As a result of the improved situation frlces on the Bourse to-day were firmer. Paris, February 26 The powers that igned the Berlin tffeaty have accepted Iho Invitation of France to make representations to Servla not to Insist upon territorial compensation from Austria-Hungary because of the annexation by that country of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Constantinople.

February 26 The Aus-tro-Hungarlan-Turkish protocol for tho settlement of the differences arising out Of the annexation by the former power of the provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina was signed here this afternoon by tbs Grand Vizier and Marquis P.allavielni, the Austro-Hungarian ambassador. Under It the Turkish government gets indemnity. The boycott committee announced to-Bay the suspension of the boycott on Austrian goods. LADY CC0K ON "SUFFRAGE." English Agitator Says There Is Not a Man in England for Whom She Would Vote To-day. Lady Cook, the English woman suffragist and agitator, was a passenger on the White Star Line steamship Adriatic, which arrived to-day from Southampton.

She made some sensational declarations, one of which was that there Is not a man in England for whom she would vote it woman suffrage went through to-day. "I certainly would not vote for King Edward," said Lady Cook. "The time eurely coming when women will havo their rights, and this time Is not far off. It will come in England and in America. One Instance shows the bigoted idea men have about women.

I knew one poor little woman who had saved some few pounds sterling from a drunken husband, out of the pittance she made with washing. The drunken husband found It out, had her arrested, and the Judge said that, while he was sorry, the law took no account of a woman's right to hold the money and she would have to give it over to her drunken husband, who promptly spent It for liquor. Does that look as If man's law is a fit law to apply to women?" MARRIAGE LICENSES Inued In Brooklyn for Twenty-four Hours Ended at Noon To-day. George R. Little.

by REPORT SENT TO CAPITAL Interment of Richard of Islip Was Held Without Caretaker's Sanction Admiral Barred. (Special to the Eagle.) Sayville, L. February 26 The curious old quarrel over St. John's Cemetery, at Gakdale, possession of which was given to his wife by Admiral Ludlow at the time of their separation, is expected to find a culmination in the courts the result of the burial there last Tuesday of Richard U. Vail of Islip.

The caretaker of the old burying place declared to-day that the burial was con ducted without his knowledge, and he has forwarded a report to Mrs. Ludlow at Washington. D. C. Back of the care taker's action lies the story of how Mrs.

Ludlow, following the from her husband, locked the ancient church against ail intrusion, forbidding even the entrance there of her husband, who had already erected his tomb in the churchyard in anticipation of his death. The gate to the graveyard was nailed fast and nobody was buried there in forty years. Many of the old-time residents of the surrounding country have relatives buried In St. John's Cemetery and the edict meant that their' survivors, when their time to die came, would be barred from tho opportunity of having their remains laid beside those of their kin. A great deal of resentment naturally followed the order of Mrs.

Ludlow, and the feeling was heightened when a new lock was placed on the church door, so as to preclude tbe possibility of the use of a key in the admiral's possession. Attorney Joseph Wood, of whom the Vail family sought counsel before the burial took place, refused to discuss the case this morning. "It Is no one's business save that of the family." was the reply made by hira to a reporter who sought to question him. Among those who h-ave been laid to rest In St. John's Cemetery were Mr.

Vall's father and mother, and it was in close proximity to the graves of these that the son was interred after his death. St. John's parish was never a part of the regular dlocesi. It had been always privately owned, although clergymen of the Episcopal farm were permitted to preach thprc. When the difference arose which separated tho admiral and his wife, one of the provisions was that the burial ground should be deeded to the wife.

She locked the church, sealed up the gate and left only the caretaker in charge. Peior to the separation Admiral Ludlow had delivered a sealed letter of instruction to Undertaken Raynor of Sayville. accompanied with another letter, instructing the undertaker to have the admiral's body cremated after death, and then to deposit the ashes In the tomb already built, which adjoins the graves of the admiral's father and mother. The burying ground is a large one. and although the interment of Vail's body was held at noon, the caretaker knew noth ing of it.

He expressed great surprise when shown the newly maae grave, and the broken cemetery gate. "I don't see how the burial could have taken place without my knownig about it, the caretaker said to a reporter tor the Eagle. "Nor do I know what Mrs. Ludlow will say when she hears of it. She told me when she left Oakdale for Washington last fall not to allow anybody to come into the place and she had a new lock put on the old church door so that the admiral's key wouldn't fit.

The oeonle-who held the Vail funeral broke down tbe gate which Mrs. Ludlow had authorized me to nail up and when they left they did not put the gate back Into place." While Mrs. Ludlow superintendent was anxiously Inquiring about the matter at. Savville to-day. he was informed tnat counsel had been taken in the matter in question and that so long as the body was once interred in St.

John's grounds, without an injunction having been placed oo the proceedings, the situation now seems grounded on possession is points of the law."

PETITION- FOR DEI Request Trustees to Give Permission to Use Fayerweather Gym for Junior Prom. BOARD TO CONSIDER MATTER Students to Take Their Play on Road for First Time Men Want Women Ousted. The board of trustees of Wesleyan University will meet to-night at 150 Fifth avenue, Manhattan, and will pass on a petition which has been received from the students, requesting permission to bold the "Junior prom," which is in reality a ball, in Fayerweather gymnasium. A few years ago such a reauest would not have been made, because the students would have known In advance that per mission would not have been granted; and in the earlier years of the college the signers of such a petition would probably have been disciplined. "Old times have changed, old customs gone," at Wesleyan as well as at other colleges and in other places.

In fact, there has been a change In respect to dancing and other things in the MethodistChurch itself, and "mod'-ernism" exists within Its pale, as it does within the pale of other churches. Wesleyan University, although located In Middletown, is pretty much of a New York City institution, and Brooklyn men have a large part in its management. The three executive officers of the board of trustees live here. Henry C. M.

Ingraham, the well known lawyer; is pres-dent of the board of trustees; the Rev. Dr. David G. Downey is the secretary, and Clinton De Witt Burdick of Remsen street is treasurer. Judge George O.

Reynolds and Frank Smith Jones are also members ot the board, the majority of whose mem-bers reside in Manhattan and its vicinity. Mr. Ingraham Bald to-day that thorn has been dancing at the college for some me, but it has been held in the fraternity houses, bo one of which Is laree enough, however, for a dance of the whole college. The application to hold the Junior prom in Fayerweather gymnasium will be carefully considered by the trustees at tonight's meeting. Paragraph 24S nf fh church forbids dancing, bu has not prevented Methodic.

dancing if they desired. The VacUce' has uonea Dy the church, and the rule has been the bone nf many of the national and local conferences. What the outcome of meeting will be cannot be forecast; although the students have made a' campaign to influence the trustees. They await the decision with Interest Wesleyan seems to be breaking away from the strict discipline of the church I other respects. For the first time, permission has been granted to the dramatic club to take their show, "The Good Natured Man," on the road this year.

Theatergoing, as well aa dancing is in ParaPh 248, and the older Mothodlsts will hoM lin thai. 1, i horror when they learn how the younger generation is drifting from the practices of the forefathers, who regarded all such BB oi me eva one, devised to lead the brethren nstrav. frnm straight and narrow path. is announced that th ln etused Question of coeducation will be decided at the meeting to-night; but that Is It will, probably again be as it has been at former meetings. A resolution was Introduced at the meeting of the trustees last June.

offering two alternatives: Either the total abolition of coedu.iation or the establishment of a separate college for women. Indica tions are that the latter Dlan will adopted, following that of Columbia Harvard and Yale. At present there are only about twenty-five women registered in the university, and the men studentB are very desirous that the institution should be for men only. LEGAL AID'S PLIGHT Needs Additional Funds to Carry on Brooklyn Work. Annual Report of President Van Briesen Shows Valuable Work Society Is Accomplishing.

The annual report of President Von Briesen of the Legal Aid Society shows that 31,036 cases were handled by the so ciety's lawyers during the past year, an increase of 4.37 cases over 1907. In its six offices the society employs thirty-flve lawyers, nine clerks and nineteen stenographers and other assistants at a cost or ,485.78. The total amount re covered for clients was $86,063. There were 31,036 applicants for legal assist ance and guidance during the year, nearly 17,000 of them being aliens. It is found that each case undertaken costs the oo- ciety 51.12.

Postage, carfare and salaries were the rest of the expenditures. foot clients pay ten cents as a retainer fee when they can afford it. Ten per cent, of the amount recovered for them, in excess of 15. is retained bv the society. From this source the society last year received $6,977.30.

The amount contributed by patrons and members was only a trifle in excess of this amount, being $7,255. The society had a balance of $1,668.12 on January 1. The Harlem branch is supported by the yearly contribution of $5,000 from an anonymous donor. In connection with this donation, President von Briesen says, In his report: "Would that others among our well-to-do could be persuaded to make similar provision for some of the other branches, thereby permitting this splendid work to go on. Because of lack of financial support the board of directors had to pass an order tnat the Brooklyn branch, which is an absolute necessity, must be closed.

Do our wealthy citizen, not realize that our work, which Insures Justice to the masses and consequent contentment, is In its final aspect more valuable to them than to those for whom we labor directly? We are left shift for ourselves by many who could help us, simply, we believe, because they do not realize the value ot our work." A determined effort is to be made to keep open the Brooklyn office of the Legal Aid Society. The lease of the present office expires on May 1 and until that time the work will be carried on and then, if funds are not forthcoming to pay the running expenses, the Brooklyn field will be abandoned. At the December meeting of the board of directors a resolution was adopted to terminate the local branch. At the annual meeting held yesterday afternoon President von Briesen declared that he still hoped to be able to keep the Remsen street office open permanently. The society has done much work in Brooklyn to aid poor people to secure their legal rights, but never has been liberally supported.

It depends largely on donations tor its existence and It they are not forthcoming tbe office must necessarily be closed and the work dropped, except aa it ran be handled from the main office In Manhattan, it is declared. The cost of maintaining the office here for a year is about $3,000. The society does not compete with lawyers, but takes the cases of the poor and the helpless who have been wronged and who are unable, owing to poverty, to' procure legal assistance elsewhere.

ROOT DIDN'T COMMIT HIMSELF Other Men Said He Was Opposed He Pid Not Make Any Denial. (Special to the Eagle.) Albany, February 26 Any lingering doubt which may have remained in the mind, of the "direct primary" men regarding the attitude of the federal administration toward their pet project wa. wept aside last night at the Barne.

dinner, when Senator-elect Elihu Root permitted It to be said without contradiction that he wa. with the organisation in Its fight to kill the bill which the governor advocates. It is true that Mr. Root did not say anything in hi. own speech which could be construed a.

an attack on the Hughe, policy, but all the other speaker, did, and in private they went so far as to ay, sometimes In Mr. Root's hearing, that be was opposed to it. The senator-elect permitted all such remark, to go unchallenged. Thia was taken generally a. proof post tive that tbe statement, ot Root's po.l tlon were accurate.

Woodruff, Raines, Wadsworth and the rest did not mince matters In the least but said openly and at great length and In detail that they were opposed to tho governor on the direct primary matter. John Raines, the Republican leader of the Senate, even characterized the idea as un-Republican, said that those who advocated it were not Republicans In the sense that he and others were. He invited those who could not agree with the platform and principle, of tbe Republican party to leave the party whenever they felt so Inclined. Mr. Root referred to the "very great popularity of Governor Hughes, not In the State of New York alone, but In large part of the West," and.

also paid a high tribute to. tbe. accomplishment, of the Republican organisations in the state. Chairman Woodruff said that Mr. Root had stated very correctly that there I.

a growing feeling among the people that they are not at all times properly repre sented by their representatives, but he pointed out that In the Western states, where Mr. Root Bald there were indications of this feeling, there never had been a legalized primary such as exists at pres ent in New York. "What we object to, Mr. Root," said Mr. Woodruff, "is having anyone, even the governor of our state, declare in public that conventions are shams; that del egate, are either ignored or made the object of barter and traffic.

Mr. Woodruff declared that never had the vote of a delegation of any sise been determined upon until a caucus or a conference had been held. I believe I am more competent than the Governor to talk upon this subject," he continued, "In view of the fact that the Governor has never participated In or attended a political convention of any character in hit Mr. Woodruff said he did. not believe that any such primary law as is proposed by Governor Hughes could be made applicable to the cosmopolitan population of the City of New York.

"The present system will give tho voters of both great parties all the power they could exercise under any other he added. William Barnes, leader of the Albany County organization, made a dramatic speech in which he urged his followers to hold fast to party principles, "regardlesB of and confident of the outcome." He that the past year In the organization had been a year of greater vicissitude and controversy than for a long time. "Perhaps the cause lies very largely in me," he admitted. He said he had carried out the wishes of the people he represented In opposing the nomination of Governor Hughes at Saratoga. "No man is greater than his party," ho declared, "and he who assume, that he alone Is the only honest man Is insulting every man in this room.

"I havo fought for honest primaries long before these new-fangled persons were born politically, and I don't intend to relinquish my political virtue to any man alive. When the day comes that the people of the city and county of Albany are tired ot me then I will go into my political demise with entire satisfaction." Reviewing the vicissitudes through which the organization bad passed during the year. Mr. Barnes said: "We went to Chicago for Taft; we went to Saratoga for Wadsworth; we went to the polls for Hughes. Every member of our organization who didn't support Hughes Is a traitor.

It made no difference whether the Governor was against the organization. He was the nominee of the party and political morality demanded support for him." "Grow In your partisanship," said Mr. Barnes, in conclusion, "as I did when I cast my vote last November for Charles E. Hughes." WIND CAUSES HAYQC Two Houses at Jamaica, One UnfinishedUprooted.
