Since then the resolutions have been forwarded to the Secretary of State and the officers in charge of the exposition and In both replies the responsibility fur tho. appointment of Mr. Nathan Is disclaimed. President Eugene F.

Cooke explained why Nathan as a representative to this fair Is so obnoxious to the Catholics of America and urged that further action be taken. The matter wns subsequently referred to the attention of the executive committee at the last meeting of which Francis Sullivan was chosen chairman. Aroused by the reports current In the newspapers that the clergy In Mexico were being subjected to Indignities nnd insults by the Constitutionalists, Villa and Carranza, Edward Feeney, K. S. (i.

offered a resolution protesting ngniusl the ill treatment of priests and nuns, and the closing of Catholic schools, which Mr. Feeney said, was rank barbarism ami did not exist In eivllzed communities. Tho motion wns unnnl-mously carried. Dean Herbert Fnrrell rector of St. Mary's welcomed the gathering to the hall and referred to the fact thnt the speaker of tho day, the Itcv.

John L. Belford rector of tho Church of the Nativity, was classmate of his. Father IVH'ord spoke on Sncinlisni and dwelt at some length on several of Its doctrines, lie said in part: "Socialism is a movement, not a sci ence. It works along certain lines thnt are economic but does not refrain from lines thnt are political nnd religious. In Chicago Socialists went on record ns nn organization that aims nt good government and protested thnt theirs wns entirely a social and economic movement nnd thnt they had nothing to do with religion or marriage.

After what happened yesterday, old Jupiter Fluvius will cease to be considered a friend by the German singers of this city, for he had no business to mar the annual Saengerfest of the L'nited Singers of Brooklyn, which was held at Gerken's Schuetzenpark, Glen-dale, yesterday afternoon and evening. But even at that, the officers of the organization were happily surprised when at least 2,000 members and visitors gathered at the park. Outsido of the singing societies form ing the United Singers, the Plattdeut- scher Volksfest Verein, the Bavarian Volksfest Verein, the Snxo-Thuringian olKsrest Verein, the Gorman-Ameri can Alliance and the German Hospital Society were represented. The Elizabeth Licderkranz of Elizabeth, N.

marched through the gates of the park with 200 singers, headed by Carl Hein, their musical Instructor. Unfortunately the rain compelled the singers to give their concert at the dance hall of the park, the acoustics of which were poor. Many of the songs by the different societies were drowned in the noise that prevailed at the hall, and the committee on arrangements apparently failed to take the possibility of rain into consideration. The concert was opened by the mass chorus of the United Singers, number ing about 250 voices, which, under the direction of Carl Fique, sang "Der Tag des Herrn" (The Lord's Own Day), by Kreutzer. Songs by about twelve lucal singing societies followed.

The detailed programme was: "Unser Rhelngau (Wengert), Alpenroesrhen Singing Society, conductor, C. Helling-hausen; "Unterm Lindenbaum" (Sturm), Bavarian Saengcrbund, conductor Hans Pruemm; "Zleh mit" (Angerer), Brooklyn Boss Bakers' Singing Society, conductor, Gustave Heil: "Seekameraden" (Wengert), Concordia South Brooklyn, conductor, VVii-llam Humbach; "Gretula (Schwalm), Junger Maennerchor, conductor, Hans Pruemm; "Helmthliebe (Wengert), Huntington Llederkranz, conductor, F.

Mrs. tireen Wilis "Horso Race." Saturday night's dance and "horse race" at the Marine and Field Club proved one of the most enjoyable of events.

The much anticipated, whimsical, exciting "horse race" made Itself great feature. It was given between the dances and had four "heats" and the "finals." Twenty-four girls anJ young matrons took part in it. Miss Milliceut Hosmer, Mrs. S. C.

Thompson, Mrs. Nathan M. Garland and Mrs. William H. Green were In the "finals," Mrs.

Green winning, with Mrs. Garland a close second. Last Thursday's Eagle gave a very clear idea of this gay game, the "Ladies Horse Race," as it is officially known. Only women compete, and each has the name of a horse. The mea stand by and bet, with "stage money" (which is lavishly provided).

Each contestant has a pair of scissors, and the "racing" is cutting through the length of a stretched out tape, fastened to the wall and about fifteen feet long. The trick Is for each girl to cut through the fifteen feet the quickest. In the first "heat," Saturday night, were Miss Maud Pottle, "Maud Miss Millicent Hosmer, "Dan Miss Julia Fischer, Miss Katherine Thompson, Miss Rowena Splllane, "Texas," and Mi3s Iva Robins Browne, "Ty Cobb." It will be noted that in some cases the names of famous horses were taken and In others names were made up, often jokingly. "Dan Patch" (Miss Hosmer) won here, the "favorites" being "beaten." These "favorites" were "Ty Cobb" (Miss Brown) and "Texas" (Miss Splllane). "Favorites" meant the rush of "stage money" in compliment to certain girls.

The most active in the make-believe beting ring were George Howell.Claude J. Ramsey, Joseph T. Cunningham, James Davis, Guy Fiske Shaffer and Paul R. Towne. Mr.

Davis was award ed a prize at the evening's close as the most successful of all in "picking winners." Ho had won $800 of stage money. The "favorite" won in the second "heat," "Salvador," in the person of Mrs. S. C. Thompson, thought Mrs.

C. Austin Greenidge as "Handspring" almost pulled ahead at the last second. "Handspring," to be strictly accurate, waa almost as much of a "favorite" as 'Salvador," and "Dry Monopolo" (Mrs. James F. Dixon, had many enthusiasts.

The others in this "heat" were Mrs. Lawrence S. Smith as "Gold Heels," Miss Hazel Robbins Browne as "Penny" and Mrs. Samuel A. Blx-by as "Lost Money." Heat the third brought the beating of the "favorite" and the loss of great fortunes of "stage money." "Mud" (Mrs.

Joseph T. Cunningham) fell far behind 'and Mrs. Nathan M. Garland as "Rockview" "romped merrily on" (being particularly expert with the scisors). None of the other "horses" had a chance as It proved, "Sailor Boy" (Miss Jennie Belle Greenidge), "Jack" (Mrs.

Forrest F. Jones), "Yorkshire Lad" (Mrs. Daniel de Cardenas) and "Bunty" (Mrs. John H. Bogardus).

"Irish Lad," in the fourth and last justified all the hopes of him. Thi was Mrs. Green, who was the decided "favorite." She not only won this, but, half an hour later, the "finals," by the splendid victory (on the tape) of nearly three inches. Experts, congratulating "Irish Lad" afterwards, told her her win was equal to a length and a half at least In a real race. Mrs.

Green's rivals In the fourth "heat" were Mrs. Lewis H. Losee, as "Don't Miss Trumbull, as "Miss Mrs. Edwin L. Wilson, as "Diamond Miss McKenna, as "Belle Rose," and Miss Florence Mohle, as "Black Bess." The most of the "racers" were gowned very attractively.

Miss Hosmer and Miss Iva Robbins Browne were In white summer frocks white being the prevailing color of the evening; Mrs. Dixon, in white satin, trimmed with gold embroidery; Miss Hazel Robbins Browne, in pink; Mrs. Losee, in white satin and green chiffon. Not far from 230 people were present. In the afternoon, auction was played, unnr the management of Mrs.

Samuel A.lixby. The prizes were two pairs of silk stocking and a gold and enamel club pin. The winners were Mrs. John E. Bailey, who wore a white lace gown, with a grnen coat effect; Miss Katherine Thompson, and Mrs.

Lawrence S. Smith. Another feature of the afternoon was clock golf, In which Mrs. Forrest F. Jones, In white lace, trimmed with pink, proved the victor.

George Sever was In charge of the dance, Guy Fiske Shaffer heading the club's entertainment committee, and Mrs. Joseph T. Cunningham was chairman of this "Ladles Pay." Among the dancers of the evening were William Biddle, Edwin A. Stlllman, Mr. and Mrs.

Assistant Corporation Counsel O'Neil Disposes of Ancient Claims. 8,001 CASKS DISPOSED OF. Justice Ayptnall Wipes Out Last By Dismissing Batch of Untried Actions. Justice Aspinall, in the Supreme Court today, dismissed a number of cases based on alleged overflows from the city sewers, on the motion of Assistant Corporation Counsel James T. O'Neill, for failure on the part of the plaintiffs to bring the actions to trial.

The suits all were brought against the City of New York. Mr. O'Neill stated to the court that today's batch was the last of the sewer claims, that the total number disposed of was S.001 cases, aggregating $2,08.721.42, and that the calendar of every court in Brooklyn was now clear so far as sewer cases were concerned. Justice! Aspinall congratulated Mr. O'Neill on his excellent work.

Mr. O'Neill stated later that the work of disposing of the old sewer 1 cases was a self-imposed task, but that he had always felf that his work was not completed while these old actions 1 remained undisposed of. He hesitated to attempt the task on account of the magnitude of it. The late Mayor Gay- nor on one occasion asked him what was being done towards disposing of the cases that had been lying dormant in the courts and Mr. O'Neill told him that nothing was being done.

In looking up the law, he found that In actions where the attorneys for the plaintiffs were deceased or dis barred thirty days notice had to be given to the plaintiff to appoint a new attorney oetore any other step could be taken in the proceedings, and after' the thirty days had expired, If a new attorney had not been appointed It wan necessary to give a new notice before any action could be taken dismissing tne complaint. William O. Miles alone had 1,524 of these cases and other attorneys, who had died since the actions were brought, had 52. This meant three copies of each notice, or 4,728 copies. In order to obviate the necessltv of giving a second notice, Mr.

O'Neill pre pared a Din amending Section 66 of the Code of Civil Procedure, had it Introduced in the Legislature, went to Albany at his own expense, had it passed and signed by the Governor. Out of the 1,676 notices served, 97 plaintiffs appointed new atorneys. In 1,425 actions, the attorneys of record were living, to which, if added the 97 cases In which new attorneys were appointed, there were 1,622 cases in which notices to show cause why the actions should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute, had to be served. About 4,666 copies of an affidavit were prepared, each showing the amount sued for, the date when the action was commenced and the time and place when the order was returnable. After these actions were dismissed three copies of an order had to be prepared in each action, one of which had to be signed by the Judge.

The forms used in the different courts were of necessity different, and when it Is considered that there were 947 cases in the Supreme Court, 105 in the County Court and 1,949 scattered through the seven divisions of the Municipal Court in Brooklyn, some idea can be gained of the magnitude of the work. In all, about 26,000 papers had to be prepared. AU of this was done in connection with Mr. O'Neill's regular trial work. The colossal feature of the work was not the only obstacle Mr.

O'Neill met with. He encountered determined opposition from many of the lawyers, who endeavored to prevent their cases from being dismissed, but he was uniformly successful, and wiped the slate clean. When Mr. O'Neill was given charge of these cases, In 1906, the city was settling them by the hundred out of court. In 1905 alone the Controller paid In settlement of sewer claims In those days a claim could bo filed at any time within six years, and It had not to be verified.

There was no check whatever on those unscrupulous enough to file fraudulent claims. A largo and profitable Industry grow up, and fortunes were mado. Mr. O'Neill found that there was little or no protection In the charter of the city against dishonest claimants. In 1906 he prepared a bill amending Section 261 of the charter In relation to the filing of claims for damages against the city.

This bill was passed, and became a law. He prepared another bill In 1907, and another In 1912, both amending the same section of the charter. These bills were passed by the Legislature and signed by the Governor, In consequence of which Section 261 of the Charter todny is a perfect protection for the city against dishonest claimants. Prior to these amendments the section was so loose and Inadequate that a clHlm could be written on any piece of paper, without being sworn to, and could he filed with the Controller any time within six years from the date of the damage, and would be regarded as a valid claim. Under the section as It now stands thousands of dollnrs hsve been saved to the city, and the saving by reason of the fear of clalmnnts to swear to fraudulent claims la Incalculable.

ADAMSON AN ECONOMIST Fire Commissioner Already Has Saved City $683,961.08. In a report to Mayor Mltchel Fire Commissioner Robert Adamson summarizes a long list of changes and economies which have been made in his department since January 1. In the readjustment of Are companies alone, due to the motorization of the former horse-drawn apparatus, the report shows an annual saving of in salaries alone, of $73,000 worth of equipment released for new companies and of worth of fire department buildings which he will shortly turn over to tho city. If a plan which ho has proposed to the Mayor for the construction of central repair shop in which the repair work of all the city departments shall be done, Is adopted, Commissioner Adamson will be ablo to turn over to the city to be fold additional Fire Department property valued nt about $300,000 more. The report also states that in a period from January 1 to June 1 the Fire Department spent less for supplies bought in the open market than in a corresponding period last year.

One of the hardest problems which Commissioner Adamson wns called upon to solve was the equipping of twenty new tire companies with men, although only twenty extra men were allowed him in the budget for 1914. He did this by abolishing many details, by discontinuing three small truck companies in Flatbush, which tho Fire Department claimed were no longer needed, and by other transfers. Another company in Brooklyn which is to be discontinued as no longer necessary is Engine Company 206, on Pearl street, near Concord, with two efflcers and twelve men. These firemen will be sent to one of the new fire compnnles In Brooklyn and the quarters and site of the engine company will be turned over to the Sinking Fund Coommission to be sold. This company, it is claimed, is no longer needed, as the territory which Is covers can be Just as well or better covered by other companies with motor apparatus.

Seven companies are to be discontinued in Manhattan. The lifeboat David A. Boody will be retired from service in two weeks, the new lire boat, William J. Gaynor, taking its place. ITS ELEVENTH ANNIVERSARY.
