THE POPE
MAY YET MAKE PEACE
Papal Secretary Said to Be Con
vinced of Happy End of,
Contest.
Jgr Fnbllsbers* Press.
Borne, Aug. 18.Cardinal Merry del
Vat's holidays at Castel Gandolfo are
busy ones. He is in constant Nommuni
eation by telephone with the Vatican
and is deluged with telegrams from
France, most of which approve the
firm attitude with respect to the
of separation.
The papal secretary is uncommuni
cative, but The Journal corre
spondent is informed by members of
his household that he is convinced that
the French government is coming to
realize the necessity of having the
Catholic church organized and that it
will either co-operate with the episco
pate or come to the terms of the pope.
Disorders Not Feared.
By YuMishen' PTQU.
Paris, Aug. 18.Even the calm dec
laration of the government after yes
terday's cabinet meeting that the act
of Dec. 0, 1905, which pronounces the
separation of church and state, is a law
and as the state only knows its own
laws, the government will see that they
are enforced, has not had the effect of
quieting the yellow section of the Paris
press, which demands in big letters:
''Will they go to Canossa or to the pope
to sue for mercy
The prospect for disorders appears
less as time passes. The vast body of
the French Catholics do not seem to
be disposed to follow any impulsive
lead. Any suggested modification re
garding the change in form of the cul
tural arrangements must come from the
papacy directly or else indirectly thro.
the French bishops.
Both. Sides Defiant.
Tour correspondent was told at the
ministry of public instruction today:
'*Those who figure on the slightest con
cession on the part of this government
are making a singular error. This is
flaaL"
At Archbishop Richards' palace there
in a "bureau of information, which
jdats apparently for the sole purpose
of repeating "We are in the hands
God and the Holy Father. We will
merge triumphant from this trial as
many others."
Canossa is the castle neaT Beggio in
northern Italy, now in ruins, which
was the scene of the penance of Em
peror Henry TV. before Pope Gregory
VTL, in 1077. The expression "go to
Canossa" is proverbially used to denote
a surrender to the claims of the church.
MUFFLED OARLOCKS
ON POACHERS' BOATS
Sfcldonee of Efforts to Evade American
Authorities Found Against Japanese
SealersPrisoners May Plead Guilty.
Washington, Aug. 18.A pair of surf
boat oarlocks was received today by
Acting Secretary of Commerce and La
bor Murray. The oarlocks were taken
from a boat used by the Japanese
poachers who were recently captured on
St. Paul island, of the Pribyloff group,
while in the act of killing American
Beals.
As an indication of the desire of the
Japanese poachers to maintain the se
crecy of their expedition to the island,
the locks were carefully muffled. They
were wrapped with plated twine which
afterward had been greased. Such oar
locks in use would not give forth a
particle of noise.
In addition to the muffled oarlocks,
five boats, more than a hundred seal
skins and a seal-skinning apparatus
were captured with the poachers.
Itis expected that the poachers, when
arraigned before the Alaskan courts
will plead guilty, as they were caught
redhandecL Solicitor of Commerce and
Labor Sims, who reported the case to
the government, will present a complete
written report of the Japanese poach
ing incident, in which five Japanese
were killed.

DIES OF HYDROPHOBIA
FROM BITE OF CAT
Bpeoisl to The Journal
tfferre Haute, Ind., Aug. 18.Wil-
liam Painter, a farmer, died of hy
drophobia from a cat bite, and in a
moment of consciousness before the
final convulsion caused his attendants
to tie him in the bed for fear he
would do some one harm in his strug
gles. The death convulsion was so
strong that he tore the bed in pieces,
but no one was hurt.
He was bitten June 21 by a cat
which had been bitten by a dog eight
days before. He called the cat to him
and as it sprang at his throat he caught
it and was bitten in the thumb. He
had the Terre Haute madstone applied,
and as it did not adhere he felt that
he was not infected with the virus.
Wednesday he noticed the ominous
symptoms and convulsions began that
ijaght, coming on intermittently until
his death last night.
DEATH OF LADY CURZON
KILLED MRS. CRAIGIE?
Special Cable to The Journal.
London, Aug. 18.To her very inti
mate friends, the death of Mrs. Craigie
did not come with such great surprise
as to the world at large. It was not
generally known that she was greatly
affected by the death of Lady Curzon,
of whom she was devotedly fond. Af
ter that sad event Mrs. Craigie seemed
to change. Those who knew her will
say that her heart was broken at the
loss of her dearest friend on earth.'
Curing Lady Curzon's first illness
Mrs. Craigie was almost distracted with
grief. She did not know Lady Curzon
was BO ill on the last fatal occasion*
and, not being able to say godby,
prpyed upon her mind. This, if not the
actual cause of death, at least did much
toward weakening a eonstitution
ULTAN OF TURKEY.
SULTAN IN COLLAPSE,
DEATH MAY SENEAR
Eminent Physicians gammoned
to Treat the Ruler of
Turkey. i'
Speeial OsMe to The Journal.
Vienna, Aug. 18.Private advices re
ceived here from Constantinople confirm
the rumors that have been current for
some time regarding the critical condi
tion of the sultan's health. Abdul
Hamid undoubtedly is a very sick man.?
His nervous system is in a state ot
collapse. Eminent physicians from
Paris, Berlin and this city have been
called into consultation, but they have
been unable to bring about any lasting
relief in the sultan's condition., The
physicians declare that he cannot live
much longer, and the succession to the
throne is likely to be a matter of -vital
interest at any time.
It is said that the several reform or
ganizations opposed to the present ruler
of Turkey have decided to combine
their efforts in support of Mehemmed
Beshad Effendi, who, according to Mus
sulman law, is the heir apparent, and
the legal successor of Abdul Hamid.
But in direct violation of the law the
sultan has nominated his third son,
Prince Mehemmed Burhan Eddin Ef
fendi. who is now 21 years of age, a
singularly bright and handsome young
man, and whom the sultan loves above
all those other eight children of his.
who rank as princes and princesses of
the blood. Mehemmed Burhan Eddin is
the son of that one of all the wives of
the sultan whom he loved best, and
who, from a Turkish point of view, was
the most lofty birth. The young
man has been brought up largely by
European tutors and in European fash
ion.
Mehemmed Beshad, upon whom the
young Turkey party has decided for
the throne, is a brother of the present
sultan and two years his junior. He
lives as a partial prisoner in one of the
palaces on the Bosporus, surrounded by
paid spies and guards of the sultan,
who Teport to their master everything
he says and does. He is known to have
liberal progressive ideas, which, of
course, are offensive to his imperial
brother, and are the reason why the lat
ter has attempted to put him out of the
succossorship. He has conducted him
self with great discretion and prudence,
however, and has furnished no excuse
for his assassination or imprisonment.
The reform element maintains that
the law of the empire expressly states
that the eldest living male member of
th* family shall be the successor to
the throne and that the sultan has no
right to choose his favorite son or name
any ono else to succeed him. Three of
the sultan's brothers and two of his
elder sons stand between Mehemmed
Burhan and the throne. But the sultan
has seen fit to change the order of suc
cession and the leading authorities on
the subject of Koranio law and doc
trine declare there is no religious ob
stacle to the change. They cite as an
illustration of the fact that no objec
tion was raised by Mohammedan theo
logians either at Constantinople or at
Cairo when the order of succession was
changed in Egypt, primogeniture es
tablished, and the then khedive's eldest
heir to the throne in
sop proclarmed
lieu of Prince
cousin.

WANTS U. S. POSTAL BANKS
Chicago Turners' Association Starts
Agitation for Federal Savings In
stitution.
By Publishers' Press.
Chicago, Aug. 18.Tn North Side
Turners' association has inaugurated
a movement for the establishment o
postal savings banks by the United
States government. Actin" upon the
suggestion of ex-Congressman Julius
Golozier, it is proposed to enlist the
National Turners' association, which
numbers 237 societies, distributed all
over the country, with a membership
of about 40,000, in this agitation.
It is proposed, with the assistance of
these societies, to compile a petition to

)ected that this petition will be the
one ever presented to congress.

Special to The Journal.
Milwaukee, Wis., Aug. 18.Sheriff

recognize all claims for damages made

GOAL ROADS OF WEST
WILL BE PROBED SOON
Interstate Commerce Commission
Prepares to Enter Iowa and
Nebraska.
jSeeoial to The Journal.
Washington, Aug. 18.-The interstate
commerce coipraission has about per
fected its plans for the fnvestigation,
under the Tillman-Gillespie resolution,
of the coal-carrying roads in the west.
Shortly after Bept. 1 it will undertake
the task of finding out what has been
going on in the Ohio and West Virginia
fields. Hearings will bo continued in
either Cleveland or Toledo or Columbus,
and perhaps in all these places. After
concluding the work in the Ohio-West
Virginia region the commission will look
into conditions in Illinois, Iowa, Ne
braska, Wyoming and other western
states.
The investigations in the west will be
similar to those that have been con
cluded in the Pennsylvania field. For
a number of weeks special agents of
the commission have been quietly at
work the western coal regions and
hja\e acquired a large amount of in
formation with general conditions.
Wiiih this information at hand the com
mission will be able to call on wit
nesses -who can give accurate informa
tion op the relations of the roads to the
coal business.
$h.e West Virginia field is looked on
by tihe commission as really a part of
the Ohio field and it will be investigat
ed at the same time. So many com
plaints have come in from Ohio and
West Virginia that the general belief
here is that just as bad a situation as
in the Philadelphia field will be un
covered. Independent operators in the
Ohio field htave filed charges against
the Ohio roads of quite as serious na
ture as those made against the Penn
sylvania lines.
It is alleged the railroads have not
only been discriminating in favor of
what? are known as railroad coal com
panies, or those controlled by railroad
companies or railroad officials, but are
equally limiting the production of coal
by independent companies.
TRAGIC DEATH TURNS
LIGHT ON A ROMANCE
Des Moines Man Espoused a Second
Wife at Behest of His First One as
She Was Dying.
Special to The Journal.
Des Moines, Iowa, Aug, 18.The
tragic death of J. W.Brown,manager of
a produce company, has brought to light
a series of romantic incidents and dis
closed the marriage of Brown to his
stenographer and bookkeeper in Minne
apolis, last November, one month after
the death of his first wife.
Brown's dead body was discovered In
the bathroom of his house. His head
was swathed in towels and a rubber
tube ran from his mouth to the gas jet
on the wall. The corpse was discovered
by bis second wife, who formerly was
Miss Sarah Lister.
Miss Lister had been for years em
ployed by Brown as a stenographer and
bookkeeper. When his first wife died
last October,, as she lay on her deathbed
she exacted a promise frdm her husband
that he would" marry Miss Lister, whb
long had been a friend of thfe family.
It was the desire of the dying woman
that her little daughter might have the
care of a woman whom she knew would
be loving and tender. The promise was
made and kept within a month, Brown
and Miss Lister going to Minneapolis,
where they were married.
The marriage had been kept a pro
found secret, however, and was only
disclosed by the tragic death of the
husband.
THREE WORDS OMITTED
ALL DIVORCES INVALID?
'Without Just Cause," Left Out of
Iflwa Decrees May Invalidate All De
sertion Divorces in That State..
Speoial to The Journal.
Des Boines, Iowa, Aug. 18.Upon the
possible omission a divorce petition
of three little words, "without just
cause," depends the validity of every
divorce granted upon the grounds of de
sertion in the state of Iowa, if the con
tention raised by attorneys for John
J. Draper, a wealthy retired farmer, re
siding in the southern part of the state,
is sustained.
The attorneys contend that every pe
tition for divorce on the grounds of de
sertion must show that the plaintiff
was deserted "without just cause,"
and if these words are omitted the
judge is without jurisdiction and the
decree is invalid. Investigation of di
vorce petitions in this state will show
that very few of them contain the
words mentioned, and if the court
Should hold that the contention of the
attorneys is correct, Iowa will see a
stirring up in divorce circles which will
surpass that which recently followed a
decision of the United States supreme
court on the divorce where service is
by publication on a party outside the
state.
STEAM CHEAPEST POWER
Yerkes* Project Managers Condemn
Scheme to Electrify Railway.
By Publishers' Press.
London, Aug. 18.The new English
management of the late Yerkes' great
scheme of railway electrification in
London now maintains that the Amer
ican financier was all wrong in his
calculation methods. One of the lead
ing officials said today:
"Mr. Yerkes believed electricity to
be cheaper than steam, but this year's
experience with the underground and
district lines that have been electri
fied has proved him to be wrong.
Short electric trains are cheaper than
steam, but when long trains are run,
the power required makes them more
costly. We have long trains, and as
a result of the calculations, are now
obliged to raise the fares. We oarry
60,000,000 passengers a year, but we
cannot go on doing it at a yearly loss
of $250,000."

Appleton, Wis., Aug. 18.Feeding

of Outagamie county in the month of
August, the best pasture month of the

The dairy output. has already de
creased one-half the former output, and
