"SISTERS OF MERCY"
RAIDED BY POLICE
NEIGHBORS MAKE COMPLAINT
AGAINST A CHICAGO
INSTITUTION.
THE "FATHER" GETS AWAY
Raid Followed Complaints Made to
the Anti-Cruelty Society in Regard
to the Orphans and of Sounds of
Revelry There at Night
CHICAGO, Sept. 9,-Four "Sisters
of Mercy" were arrested last night in
a raid by City Detectives on St. Jo
seph's Home for Orphans at 202
Thirty Sixth Street. Despite the
precautions taken by the police An
tonio de Lubics, said to be the head
of the institution and claiming to be
out for him. It is feared he has fled
the city, but detectives were on his
a priest, escaped the dragnet spread
trail early today.
The raid followed complaints made
to the Anti-cpelty Society and to the
health department by neighbors who
often heard sounds of merriment in
the "Asylum" in the early morning
hours. Mrs. Mary Pillar, until a
week ago employed at the place, was
the first to tell of the midnight mer-
riment and of the severe beatings ad-.
ministered to the little orphans in
the home.
The "Sisters of Mercy" are Helen
Myslivers, 17 years old; Mary Mar-
engo, 19 years old; Fidelia Lazarius.
20 years old and Sarapheni Polner,
18 years old. The Myslivers girl told
the police how the home was main
tained and how DeLubics conducted
himself. She denied that the child
ren fed at the institution were mis
treated, but asserted that sometimes
they were "chastised for being un
ruly." ' "I have been at the home for a long
time, but I never kept count of the
many dollars I turned over to Father
DeLubics," she said, 'We were not
permitted to keep any track of the
money handled by us for that was

AERONAUTS CAN'T GO.
Nevertheless America Will Be Rep
resented In Berlin Races.
' NEW YORK, Sept. 9,-The Amer
ican team entered in the international
balloon race to take place in Berlin
on October 11, has lost another mem
ber in Allan' R. Hawley, who finds
that business will not permit of his
sailing for Europe today as. intended.
Mr. Hawley's inability to take part in
the race follows closely on the de
cision of General Allen, chief of the
army signal service, that Lieutenant
Frank P. Lahm cannot be spared to
go to Germany to compete.
Lieutenant Lahm is superintending,
with other army officers, the tests that
are now being made at Fort Myer
and this entire month and probably
a part of October will be taken up
with the trials of the' Wright and
Herring aeroplanes. The government
experts believe he is of more use here
at the present time, than competing in
the balloon trophy at Berlin.
W. H. Arnold will take Lahm's
place and he will be pilot of the new
balloon St. Louis which the St. Louis
Aero Club 4tad constructed in Paris,
for the race. Mr. Arnold is a com
paratively new aeronaut, having but
lately received his pilot's license, but
he has made a number of ascensions
from North Adams within the last
six months. He will sail for Europe
next week about tne same time that
A. Holland Forbes, the third member
of the team, sails.
CANNOT ACCEPT ALL,
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9. -The
Navy Department has been obliged
to decline with regret the invitation
extended by. the Netherlands govern
ment to have the battleship fleet make
a visit to Landjong Prick, Java, on
the way to Manila. The Department
is anxious to get the fleet to Manila
in good time for target practice and
the department does not think it
wise at this time to depart from the
itinerary already mapped out.
JONES LEADS ANKENY.
Returns From The Washington Pri
mary Are Far From Complete.
SPONE, Sept. 9.-3 A. M.
Returns from the primary elections
tii Washington are far from
complete. Such returns as have been
received indicate that Jones is lead
ing Ankeny for the senatorial nomina
tion and will probably carry the Eas
tern part of the state. In Spokane
County Jones has a good lead, and
also in Okanogan County. He is car-
rying Yakima, his home county, by i
a vote of 5 to 1, while Ankeny is
carrying Walla Walla, the Senator's :
home county, 3 to 1.
For governor on the Republican '
ticket, McBride appears to be leading,:
though Mead and Cosgrove are show-
ing much strength in several counties,
For governor on the democratic tick-
et pattison is leading Well.
for Congressman, Poimdextcr ap
pears to be in the lead, with honors
divided between the other contests.
Chadwick, Crow and Root are easily
leading, all other candidates for jus
tices of the Supreme court.
For Senator on the Democratic
ticket, the race between Cotterill and
Godman is close. Cotterill has a
slight lead in Spokane County.

Hackett. Dr. James Dwlght of Bos

made this announcement recently as
the selections of the committee, of
which he Is the chairman. Hackett
wilt add no strength to the team In the

doubles combination which has, been
mi successful for two years.
From their recent performances
lexander and Hackett are peerless as
l pair and are regarded as standing
above any previous pair of champions
that this country has produced.
No sooner had the selection been
made than Lamed and Hackett nu-
uounced that they would be unable to
make the trip to Australia If the Eng
lishmen were defeated, but It Is
thought that both players will recon
sider their determination not to go.
Should Lamed and Hnckctt not go

recovering the cup. They have made

When Nelson was seen in his
dressing room he said:
"Cans was tougher than before. He
was in good shape and fought a dif
ferent kind of fight, but I proved con
clusively that I am his master in any
kind of a fight. From now on I will
never fight a colored man again. I
shook hands with Billy Papke today
and we both made this compact.
Nelson appeared as strong at tlus
finish as in the beginning. One of
his teeth was knocked out in the
fourteenth round and blood flowed
freely as a result. The sight of blood
spurting freely from Nelson's mouth
caused the short enders to mount
in their seats and shout encourag
ingly to the fast dying colored lad.
He responded gamely and in the fol
lowing round made what was probab
ly the most furious round of the fight.
