MK ompliments the Tribune on It3 Re port of His Lecture. KHAT HE SAYS AKOl'T CHARITY In Favor of Saving the Deserving 'Poor from Going Into Alinshouscs-Com. mittces of the Ariociated Cliarl. tics for the Year. The Board of Associated Charities held a meeting last night, which was very Interesting. The treasurer's re port shows a balance In the treasury at present of $329.46. Thomas J. Moore's resignation was read, but "further con sideration of It was postponed for the present, expecting that Mr. Moore may" be persuaded to recoisider his deter mination. The memoers felt rthat his usefulness as a member of the board could not be spared. Dr. J. W. Walk, of Philadelphia, who lectured in the Young Men's Christian Association hall, under the auspices of the Board of Charities, sent the fol lowing letter to Rev. Rogers Israel, the secretary, which was called forth by the misrepresentation his lecture re ceived In the columns of the Scranton Times: I wish to compliment the Scranton Tribune for the very excellent report of my address, and I must say that the" re port of the Times was very misleading. The Times said that I advocated the abolition of outdoor relief, compelling all bjects of charity to live in almshouses. That charity In such a case wore a wintry aspect. If such was my opinion, It would Indeed present a wintry aspect, but I have been misunderstood. I am not In favor of forcing the worthy poor Into almshouses. Indeed, for years, It has been my effort to prevent the necessity of their going there. I believe In assisting them at their own homes by such kindly methods as may preserve their self-respect, but I think such assistance can be better given by benevolent societies than by county or township officials who very often owe their appointment to the favor of pollt leal leaders, and seldom feel any deep Hi terest In the unfortunates under their are. In our own state there- have been many scandals connected with the expen diture of city and county poor fundH; al most none in the administration of ben evolent societies. Foundation of His Opinion. . My opinion Is not the result of prejudice but of long and close observation; for I am myself a city orllclal. The reporter' misunderstanding of my position was probably due to my using the phrase, "out door relief In Its restricted, legal mean- ng of relief given from money raised by taxation. I did advocate the discontinuance of this kind of relief, but only with a view of substituting for It relief given by benevo lent associations, whose work Is rnorc sympathetic and more economical than that of political officials, no matter to what party they belong. ' I say emphatically that I am In favor of saving the deserving poor from the ne cesslty of going Injo almshouses as long as possible. When the letter was read Mr. Cohen explained that he had sent Dr. Walk's views of the report given his lecture by the Times to the editor of that sheet and the matter was satisfactorily cor rected in an editorial utterance yester day morning. Miss Lizzie Y. Beame, of 521 Delaware street, applied for the position of as slstant to Mrs. Duggan and her com munlcatlon was received and placed on file. Mrs. Duggan made the following report: Number of visits nuule, 30 worthy, 20; unworthy, 10; revisited, 6 transportation furnished to 4 persons, lodging to 3; children sent to Foundling home, 2; persons sent to Lackawanna hospital, 2; found permanent positions for 3, found work for 4; one child taken In charge from vicious parents; dona Hons received from sisters of St Cecilia's academy. Colonel Ripple, chairman of the board, announced the following committees for the ensuing year: Committees for the Year. Relief Thomas J. Moore, William T. Smith. E. J. Lynott. Visitation W. Gaylord Thomas, Luther Keller, P. J. Ruane. Employment John Gibbons, Philip Klrst, John H. Fellows. Child Savlng-M. J. Kelley, Colonel H. M. Boles, E. B. Sturges. Information Jacob Cohen, Colonel II. M. Boles, Dr. B. H. Throop. There waB a short discussion on the subject of replenishing the treasury and of Ilndlng work for those who seek em ployment. Colonel Ripple thought that men could be furnished with work In Ney Aug park, splitting the fallen tim ber Into lire wood. A vote of thanks was tendered to Dr. J. W. Walk, Rev. Mr. Starr, of Canada, and the members of the Young Men's Christian association, and the meeting adjourned until Thursday, Dec. 27. NEW TRIAL 1 OR IJEZKK. Ills Attorneys Will Today Ask Court to Allow Another Hearing. Attorneys Colborn and Watson, who so ably defended Franz Bezek last week, say they will today apply for a new trial for the convicted man. The reason for the new trial will set forth that the court erred In Its rulings dur ing the trial, In Its oharge to the Jury, and In not having all the evidence with regard to Bezek's mental condition at the time of the killing read to the Jury when It went into court for in structions on Saturday. Warden Grimes says that Bezek ap parently does not realize that he has been convicted of a crime that may mean death to him. His manner has not changed. - THE FANNING CHILDREN.
