CHURCHES REFUSE RACE OUB MONEY Baltimore Denominations Will Not Accept Fund Raised by Gambling.
(National News Association) BALTIMORE, Md., June 6 Two of the leading denominations of Baltimore, representing thousands of prominent persons of this and other cities, through their official heads have adopted resolutions protesting against the acceptance by any charitable organization of the proffered gift of $12,000 by the Maryland Jockey club. The social service committee of the Episcopal church of the diocese of Maryland and the social service committee of the Baltimore annual conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, met and protested against the acceptance of the donation on the ground the money was .derived from gambling. Members of these committees expressed the belief, voiced by William F. Cochran, that the money offered by the jockey club to charity was simply a move to "insiduously prejudice the apathetic public in favor of countenancing a recognized and immoral practice in the realm of gambling, particularly so in the face of promised legislation regarding the entire abolition of racetrack gambling in Maryland." Last Tuesday the Jockey Club, following the closing: of a successful
meeting at Pimlico ordered contribu-
tions for charitable purposes of a total of $12,000. Dr. H. Warren Buckler, chairman of the committee appointed to distribute the money given by the Maryland Jockey club, for the benefit of poor persons suffering from tuberculosis; declared that he has no patience with the protests of the Methodist and Episcopal denominations against accepting the money.

ALBANIAN PRIESTS
CONFER WITH POPE (National News Association) ROME. June 6. A delegation of Albanian Roman Catholic priests called
at the Vatican today to discuss the
future status of the church in Albania, after that district had become a free kingdom. Cardinal Merry del Val, papal secretary of state, received the delegates, and on authority of Pope Pius X., Informed the visitors that all the Catholics in Albania would be under the protection of Austria. It is feared that a religious war between the Christians and the lerce Mohammedan tribesmen will follow the creation of a new government in Albania. This would make the presence of Austrian troops necessary to protect the lives of that country's religious proteges. In this event Austria might eventually secure virtual domination of the new kingdom.

TWO ATTORNEYS HUD COURT IH ARGUMENT Johnson Censures Judge For Refusal to Hear Case Today.
TRADED FOR DOG; NOW IS A STAR
ST. LOUIS, Mo.. June 6. Pitcher Hopper, the New England league right-hander, who has hurled two no-hit games and who is sought by the Cardinals, once decorated the reserve list of the Cardinals when Bresnahan was in charge and is probably the only heaver in baseball who has the reputation of having been sold for a dog. Bresnahan landed Hopper at the close of the 1911 season. Afterwards Roger decided he was not worth a trial. Dick Kinsella, former Cardinal scout, who was owner of the Springfield three-Eye league team, needed hurlers and Bresnahan offered him Hopper. They could not agree on a price, but Kinsella owned a hunting dog Roger admired greatly. Bresnahan accepted the dog in trade for the pitcher, Mr. Hopper.
A heated argument between Judge Fox, Henry U. Johnson and Tom Study took place this morning in the Wayne circuit court room as the result of decisions rendered by the court. Johnson and Study are attorneys in the case of Laura H. Fleming against Chas. D. Fleming in which the plaintiff demands a divorce and asks that
a restraining order be issued to keep the defendant from selling property, said to be owned jointly by the plaintiff and defendant. The case was not set for trial today and Judge Fox refused to hear the
, case because the regular court reporter had been excused and a special re
porter was being used by the grand jury. Johnson demanded that the case be tried and had witnesses pres-
I made a motion to set aside the restraining order temporarily and hear the case. Judge Fox refused to do
this and set the case for Mouday. The court was censured by Johnson for the former's action. Johnson declared that justice could not be secured in court. The restraining order was set aside by the court, temporarily. This was objected to by Study and another argument followed. Judge Fox finally left the court room.
