Bpecial Dispatch to The Call, NEW YORK, Dec. .—Peter Maher's | wife died in Philadelphia at a late hour | to-night. Mrs. Maher gave birth to a | baby girl on Christmas morning. The child lived only two days and last night | the mother died. A postponement of the | Irishman's fight with McCoy, which was | to have been decided in the Coney Island Sporting Club on Monday afternoon, now is_inevitable. There was lively betting on the coming fight to-day. Many small wagers and sev- eral big bets were recorded. The largest single wager was between Gmg Smith, better known as “Pittsburg Phil and “Jakey’ Jnse&-‘:hs. who represented a prominent Stock xchanfi member. It Wwas $2000 at even money. Mr. Smith, who is an admirer of the I champlon, took the Maher end. | Joe Vendig placed $1500 on Maher at even money with a prominent Wall-street broker who, for business reasons, did not wish his name mentioned. “Honest” John Kelly, who bet Louis Wormser $2000 against $1600 on Friday night that Maher would win, sald to- day that he had more to place on Maher at the same odds. ““Pittsburg Phil"" has $10,000 more which he would Jike to place on the Irishman.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. —1It Is the expectation of diplomats here acquainted Wwith the facts of the treaty-shore contro- versy between France and Great Britain that the friction which existed before the negotiation of the modus vivendi, which has been in force for the last ten yur-! Wwill be renewed after the expiration of the agreement to-morrow. S0 far as is known at th embassies con- cerned, no new us vivendi or exten- sion of that in force has been agreed upon by the London and Parls Governments. Great Britain has been quite willing to close the dispute, but the local Govern- ment of Newfoundland Is very much wrought up over the matter, and has tried to secure an abrogation of the treaty ot Utrecht. Appreclating Great Britain's embarrass- ing position in South Africa, and following the example of other Governments, it would not be surprising if France were to push Great Britain for-concessions in the Mmatter of the treaty-shore controversy. Her representations may be more Vigor- ous if the Newfoundlanders give the French any occasion for offense. OPPOSE SIDE ENTRANCES TO ALL GROCERY STORES OHURCH WORKERS TO FORM AN ORGANIZATION.

Mrs. Seymour. of 32 Ellis street {8 one of the leaders of the new movement, and her statement shows that it is proposed to conduct the campalgn against side entrances and dives on broader lines than have usually characterized such move- ments. “This is not a czmpnlrn in the inter- ests of prohibition,” sald Mrs. Seymour, “but It is a necessary movement in this city, where the grocery-saloon practice is rapldly rowln,. We are not seeking to close saloons, for the San Francisco loon, by comparison with other cities, is not bssly conducted. We are after the side entrances to grocery stores and the dives. A saloon Is not a deceptive place; it is & saloon and everybody knows | and all who enter it do so "Xpeclln' 0 drink or to be treated to a drink. If a woman goes into a regular saloen she cannot claim that she did not know where she was going. With these grocery- saloons it is different. Young people go into them and their side entrances ars #o concealed as to thelr true purpose that they are a menace to virtue, and many fnnocent people might go into them not knowing their nature. “Many prominent ministers have al- ready promised to take the matter up. and we expect to invite the whole of the churches in the good work. On Thursday evening we shall enroll mem- bers, and as soon as possible we shall organize. We are uow trying to secure a noted Chicago reformer to come here and deliver some lectures. When ve reached the proper stage we shall go be- fore the Supervis: and ask for the pase suge of the I jation necessary t0 pers fect the work. ‘Welsh Competitive Meetings.
