They found two whiskey glasses in the tenement and a bottle of llquor in the pocket of a partially intoxicat- ed man who was in the kitchen. In the ce r the following articles of evidence w selzed: Three 20 gal- lon barrels containing 20 gallons of wine, one 10 gallon jug of wine, six gallon jugs and three two gallon jugs, partly filled, one gallon of colored al- cohol, a quart bottle of colored alco- hol and a half pint of burnt sugar. Admits Possession Mrs. Schultz at first denfed having a cellar, but later admitted that the stuff was hers, the police testifled. Today she said it belonged to her son, Tony. When the police broke down the cellar door they found a funnel still damp, standing near an open whiskey barrel. Sergeant Hart testified that gin was tound in the place on a previous oc- casion, but because of the large fam- ily she was not brought to court. A second time she was lectured by the prosecutor and promised not to scll again, he testified. Policeman Feeney, O'Mara, McCue, Flynn, Kiely and Dart told of seeing many men going into the Schultz tenement.

POPE BENEDICT IS REPORTED AS DEAD from IFirst Page) until 1887, when he returned to Rome upon the elevation of Rampolla to the Cardinalate. In 1901, after having served four years as Secretary of the Nunciature in Spain, he was appointed Secretary of the Cypher. This position gave its incumbent considerable authority and the same r Mgr. della Chiesa was named as Consultor of the Holy Office. A notable promotion came to him on December 16, 1907, when Pope Pius X appointed della Chiesa as Archbishop of the important See of Rologna to succeed the late Cardinal Svampa. His administration of this office for ven years was character. ized, it said, by prudence and di plomacy. His consecration as an Arch bishop was performed by Pius him- self in the Sistine Chapel, an honor so unusual that it attracted world-wide attention. Archbishop della Chiesa 18 made a Cardinal in May, 1914, less than six months before mounting the throne of Si. Peter's. Patron a Singular Pontiff. He took his ecclesiastical title from Pope Benedict XTIV, one of the ablest pontiffs of the church, who was born in Bologna on March 31, 1657, and died on May 8, 1758, Benediet XV's personal appearance has been described as follow “A man phy Iy il-favored but gifted with great intelligence; short of stature, ascetically thin, with the right shoulder raised above the left, and giving one the impression of ex- treme nervous and weakneas. But when he raised hig head the visitors Instinctively feit that they were In the presence a man cquipped with exceptional intellectual powers and energy.

I"riends of a poor dancing master in Rologna, who was ruined by the ediet of the Archbishop, appealed to della Chiesa in his behalf, The Arch- bishop heard thelr story with the greatest sympathy but refused to yield Then he handed them $40 as his donation to a subscription for the dancing master to tide him over until he could find other employment, ENforts Toward Peace Pope Benediet's efforts toward peace were thug summed up by Cardinal Logue: “Durpag the latg war every effort was made to induce the Pope to side with one balligerent or another but he went straight as an arrow. He made justice and right trlumph ovér op- pression. There was not one of Presi- dent Wison's 14 points that was not included in the Pontift's peace condi- tions." CXPENEOS Neces and he m income to The Irish Question The Pope was deeply grieved by the conflict which resulted from efforts to obtain Ireland's freedom. He was appealed to to intervene in behalf of the Irish repubpean movement but Archbishop Hayes on raturninf from the Vatican in 1921, sald that he was following the policy of neutrality and impartiality. He condemned crime in Ircland by elther side and repeatedly expressed the hope that violence there would end. In a letter to Cardinal Logte, the Pope appealed to hoth English and Irish to abandon violence and pro- posed that the Jrish question be set- tled by a body selected by the whole Irish nation. When the Irish question was at last*settledshe expressed great satisfaction and sent a message to the Dall Eireann rejolcing over the peace agreement which made Ireland a free state, Rfused to®Participate Pope Benedlict declined, in May 1919 to authorize the Catholic church to participate in a world conference of religions which had been proposed to him by a group of bishops of the protestant Episcopal church in the Cardinal Gasparri told the bishops. “Rather than a reunion of the Christian churches, the Holy See aims at the unity of the church which, in the opinion of Rome, can only oc- cur by all returning to the Catholic church. Attacked Y. M. C. A, In December 1920, the Vatican is- sued a decree requesting the Catholic bishops to pay vigilant attention to such socleties as the Young Men's Christian Association on the ground that they corrupted the faith of Catholic youths. The Pope urged the Knights of Columbus to combat pro- paganda against the Catholic Yaith, The Pope took occasion on num- erous instances to express his views thoroughly on some political and so- clal questions. Early in 1920 he sent a letter to an Italian bishop urging the Catholic priests to work intel- ligently and energetically against what the Pope characterized as ‘he ‘‘dan- gerous doctrine of the socialists.”” He repeatedly denounced immodesty in women’'s dress.and what he termed the indecency of fashion. On another occasion a circular was issued by his direction to diplomats acecredited to the Holy See asking them to add to the invitations to official receptions a note asking the women to .avoid ex- cessively decollette gowns. The Pope declared in an address to the Sacred College the world was af- flicted with five great plagues which he enumerated as the negation of authority, hatred among brothers, thirst for pleasure, disgust for work, and forgetfulness of the supernatural objects of life. These evils, he assert- ed, could be overcome only by the aid of the Gospel. Celibacy Is Essential. In a secret consistory in December he declared that the Catholic church would never abolish nor mitigate the aw imposing celibacy on the clergy nor introduce democratic forms which had been asked by priests in Czecho- Slovakia where a secession movement had been based on that appeal. Was Quiet Diplomat. The resumption of diplomatic re- Jations between the Vatican and France and Germany was attributed [to the diplomacy of Pope Benedict who was said to have directed the negotiation: The healing of the breach between the Vatican and I"rance which resulted from the sepa- ratton of church and state in that country was crowned By the canon- {ization of Joan of Arc as a saint of the church. In commenting on these new rela- tions it was pointed out in many quar- ters that during the years when Ben- edict XV had directed the policy of e church there had been an in- ensing influence by the, Vatican on the public opinion of the world. Approved Harding's Plan. His voice was raised in approval of the aims of the Washington con- | fereree on the limitatfon of arma- ment and in a letter to President Harding, the Pope commended his initintive in calling it. His efforts on behalf of war prisoners were unre- mitting and he personally appealed to the prelates of the church to pro mote amity among the nations and de plored the unrest in [Surope which had followed the war. Aided the Poor. He issued numerous appeals for the poor children of central 1urope and for the famine sufferers of Russia and through his efforts a huge fund was collected and distributed to the children of Germany, Austria, Poland, Hungary and Czecho-Slovakia. He also made large contributions to funds for the relief of the Russians and | Chinese and to the international Red | Cross. The Pope's brother, Marquis John Anthony Della Chiesa died in Decem- her, 1920, Nl Last Year. The Pope was reported in 1921 as having suffered two attacks of rheu- matism. Op January 18 it was an- nounced he had an attack of bron- chial catarrh and symtoms of influen- zn which was not at first regarded as cerious but as he was then 70 years old, complications were feared. Pneu- monia ensued. 2 PER CENT, OF ALL COLLEGE STUDENTS Are Methodists, According to Chicago Speaker This Morning Bixty-five delegates from varlous towns and cities in the New Haven district of, the Epworth League reg- {stered at the Trinity M, K. church last evening to attend the three day winter institute being held there.

Moss, assistant secretary of the hoard of foreign missions, in New York, found at the last minute he could not be present to lead the class in foreign missions, and Rev. Fred- erick 1.

Dr, Gratz spoke this morning from 11 to 12.15. 3 He mentioned in brief the lack of Intimate knowledge most people have of the bible by saying that one man, after going to church for the. first time in years said he always thought Sodom and Gomorrah were man and wife. . He told of a-lawyer who began a speach by saying, "A good, wise and very great man one time said: ‘Ali that a man hath will he give for his life’.” He explained that the ‘“good, wise and very great man” referred to was the devil, inasmuch as his satanic majesty was the person quoted. He also told of a man’ who read In Genesis about Noah building an ark large enough to hgld two of all the animals in the woild besides a large family and provisions enough for ali. and then saying that he read in the book of Exodus-where two men had carried the ark through the wilde ness. “He never knew the difference between Noah's ark and the ark of the covenant.” .

YALE PRESS TAKES UP LONELL' VIEWS Gymments on Sphere of Football in Collgge World New Haven, Jan. 21.—Yale's un- dergraduate viewpoint for the con- cluslon of President l.owell of Harvard university that football as an Inter- collegiate sport has been given an emphasis out of proportion to its im- portance, as outlined by the Yale Daily News today is that any reform in sports would have to be brought about gradually. It also says that undergraduates and alumni might not oe insympathy with proposed reforms. I'ne News, after discussing the ooints made by President Lowell says: “Mwpdern football, as at present ou- sanized has béen the target for three orineipal charges: that of profes- sionalism, of Mdividualism, and ot vommercialism. The nation wide { :ompetition resulting from the custom )f playing a dliferent oppdnent each veek has made it less a game of en- oyment than a business of winning. Jecondiy, the process of manufactur- Mg stecessiul teams has developed ciue abnormal athlete at the expense ol the normal. And finally, the huge .ums received from gate recelpts have ast a commercial shadow over con- ests intended orviginally for the sake )i sport—and notning clse. “Unquestionably tnere is some ruth in_these aceusations. The only vay they cun be silenced at Yale is vy a radical departurc from the tradi- .tonai athletic policy of the university. . national competition is to be avoid- d preliminary games must be partial- Iy or entirely done away with; if the principle of ‘athletics for all’ 1s real- I Intra-mural games must be sub- stituted; and if commercialism is to be discouraged, expenscs must be cut down by carrying the reform into all Lranches of athletics.” . “Any change-—if changg is wanted— would be mere! an attempt to cor- fect radical defects in the present or- ganization of college athletics. Such change would not come immediately.” GOODELL CLUB Organized Today—E. M. Wightman Heads Organization—Luncheon at Y. M. . A, Rev. Taylor to Lead.

Shamokin, Pa., Jan, 31—~Demands adopted by the tri-district wage cons vention of the anthracite miners which adjourned late last night, will be presented for ratification to the in« ternational convention of the United Mine Workers at Indianapolis next month. The principal demands pro« vide a 20 per cent increase in the contract wage scale and an advance of $1 a day for all men employed by the day. Nineteen demands were present- ed, some of a technical character. All were adopted without serious opposi- tion. The convention took the important step of instructing the scale commit- tee to perfect arrangements providing for a suspension of mining on April 1 in the event that no satisfactory agreement has been reached by March 31 when the present wage scale ex- pires. This action was unexpected by some of the leaders It was said and did not provoke one dissenting voice among the detegats, It has been the custom of the anthracite miners, ex- cept in one.or two instances, to re- main at work pending the favorable progress of wage negotiations. The demands of ‘the anthracite men will be presented to the operators after the Indianapolis convention. President John L.
