The end, which came at 1:20 o’clock this morning, was peace ful. A few moments before he had been roused from semi-con- sciousness. He attempted to bestow a blessing upon those gath- ‘ered in the chamber, but his strength failed. After a pause he ‘murmured the scriptural text.and.did not speak again. Father Francis Xavier Wernz, General of the Society of Jesus, also died in Rome this morning. Father Wernz was called The Black Pope, a nick- name used to indicate his power behind the throne. The late Pius X was generally known as The White Pope.“ l Small Image of Virgin Beside Pope’s Iron Bed. be body of Pope Pius reposed today on a little iron bed with damask ‘coverings.

In ease of the death of Pope Pius X, however, on account of the hour of his ‘death, such precautions were not necessary. i The death of the Pontiff in the eightieth year of his life and the twélfth tear of his pontificate, while long expected because of ailment incident to advanced age, nevertheless came as a shock even to those near him. F -peveral days he had been suffering from gouty catarrh, but Tuesday his phy- “sicians said the trouble was of no great importance, and yesterday morning .weassuring reports concerning the patient were current. Tube change came suddenly yesterday morning and early in the afternoon ‘those in attendance announced death was imminent. Similar attacks had _ been resisted with the aid of the Pope’s will power, but depression over the clash of arms in Europe militated against another recovery. ‘Painful Struggle to Breathe During the Night. At 10.0’clock last night the Pontiff experienced an attack of coughing that distressed him. He could not move in bed without assistance and the ‘struggle he made“ to breathe was painful to witness. As the supreme me- wont approached the coughing ceased and the restlessness which the doctors had been unable to relieve disappeared. The features of the patient, which ‘bac given evidence of his pain, resumed a normal expression except for the pallor which increased. The Papal Secretary of State, Cardinal Merry del Val, Cardinals Fer- rata, Cagiano and Bisleti, the Pope’s two sisters, and physicians who were at the bedside recognized the calm preceding death. Dr. Marchiafava, his ‘Wand on the Pontiff’s pulse, turned toward the Papal Secretary, who was kneeling, and shook his head. Cardinal Merry del Val understood and cov- ered his face with his hands. Meantime, Cardinal Vannutelli, the Pope’s _ niece, Gilda Parolin, his major domo, Mgr. Bianchi, Mgr. Misciatelli and his ~ geeretaries, Mgr. Bressan and Mgr. Pescina, bad joined the group in the chamber. Two sisters and the Pope 's secretaries could not restrain their sobs and their voices seemed to bring back the pontiff from the state of coma into ‘which he had lapsed. His eyes opened and his lips moved and it was plain that he was making an effort to impart a final blessing. For a moment it seemed that dissolution had taken place and then the lips moved again. Together in one, all things in Christ, he whispered.

Immediately afterward, candle lights flickered in all the windows of the Vatican and the whole personnel of the apostolic palace, with the per- mission of the papel secretary, passed by the body, kissing the hand of the Pontiff as they passed. Throughout the night messages had been received from the heads of many states inquiring the condition of his holiness, All were notified immediately of his death by Cardinal Merry del Val.

Equaily patent is the fact that there is a general conviction in the allied capitals that, in the end, Brussels will fall to the Germans and the French troops will fall back toward France cer- tainly, while the Belgians will conceiv- ably fall back on Antwerp. What, then, will be the consequences of such a victorious German advance? To get even an approximate notion of the meaning. it is necessary to pass rap- idly in review the progress of events since Monday, Aug. 3. when Germans suddenly entered Belgian territory and moved against Liege. Review of Developments. The German assault upon that city be- gan on Aug. 4. On that day. it was oc- cupied by a garrison of the permanent force which Belgium. keeps in her three great fortifications, Namur, Liege and Antwerp; also there were doubtless’ about the town some regiments. of. the Belgian field. army. Once the fact of resistance was estab- lished,. the Belgian and French general staff were united in a common task. For 10 yeare French Generals had fore- seen the Luxemburg-Ulege onrush. and had planned to meet it. What they nud not kKnewn was that Belgium would re- | and French forces, apart from a few regiments of cavalry and _§ artillery, would be unavailable for at least 10 days. Accordingly, it became the mission of the Belgian army to delay, impéde, em- barrass the German advance until the French forces could come up. In this work the plans of Belgian resistance to a German invasion, prepared by the Bel- gian general staff long in advance, served admirably. Autwerp Last Retreat. Their general scheme was to delay the invaders as long as possible on the line of the Meuse held by the fortresses of Namur, Huy and Liege, then to fall back to the lines of the Demer, of the Dyle, and finally to Antwerp a magnifi- cent seaport, prepared to received the whole Belgian army, and one of the strongest places in all Europe. During the first two or three days of the fighting about Liege, Belgian field forces assisted in the resistance. But as German masses came up and began to cross the Meuse, above and below, the Belgian troops, apart from the garrison, were drawn out. This enabled the Germans to enter the city between the forts. Meantime, the Belgian field army, now fully mobilized and numbering at least 80,000, took up the work of holding back the German advance. 8 The series of “battles in Belgium” which followed has been discussed here. With Liege squarely in its path, the German general staff had for some days a difficult problem getting troops west of the Meuse in large numbers and sup- plying them.

LONDON, Aug. 20.— Thousands of Americans gather daily at the Savoy Hotel, where the great ballroom and a score of tea rooms and priate dining rooms have been given over to the American citizens and American resi- Gents committee, providing for the wants of Americans stranded in Eu- rope, EV morhing at 10° 6clock an ‘army of American tourists rushes to the va- rious. information booths, in search of information concerning the probably sailings of steamers to the United States. Ten bankers and their clerks are kept busy providing money for travelers with letters of credit, while committees of gate credentials of persons who have exhausted their funda, but hold tickets on the steamship lines which have dis- continued sailings. A large postoffice force handles the mail for the stranded Americans. All letters and cablegrams sent in care of the American Embassy are being turned over to the relief committees, with their trained assistants. Society Women in Crowd. Men and women of all ages, million- aires, humble workmen, school teachers and society women dressed in Parisian gowns, move shoulder to shoulder in the crowd, seeking assistance from the re- lief workers. Americans who wstraggie into London from Copenhagen, Rotterdam and Cher- bourg are equally helpless. Most of them are provided with travelers’ checks or letters of credit, which were of little use to them in Berlin, Geneva and Rome. From Austria, Switzerland, Germany and France, Americans have made their way to England as best they could. Few of them were able to get sleeping car accommodations, and nearly all have lost their baggage. Many wealthy travelers who were touring on the continent in automobiles lost their cers, and thankfully received such hum- ble accommodations as they could get on the trip to London. The Transportation Committee, headed by Joseph H. Day, is the center of greatest attraction in the ballroom at the Savoy. This committee gets the first information concerning sailings of steamships, and supplies berths to Americans as rapidly as they are allot- ted by the steamship companies. With the announcement of the English lines that their sailings soon would become virtually normal, a cheerful air pervaded the relief headquarters.

Special Dispatch From a Correspond- ent of the Post-Dispatch and the Londen Morning Post. ROME, Aug. 2#.—Italy, in the last few days, has had her temptations. It is related that Austria hes offered her territory in Tunisia and the town of alona in return for her aid, as well as Trieste, an Austrian province on the Italo-Austrian frontier, wWevse ~eoples and language are Italian. Fut, besides the alternative of neutrality or inter- vention in Austria’s favor, there is also the possibility of intervention against Austria and that is not improbable should Austria occupy the Montenegrin strategical position of Mount Lovitchen, which dominates the Bocche di Cattero, which in Austrian hands would be @ menace to Adriatic equilibrium. No Italian wants war with Great Britain, Italy’s best friend. Few Ital- lans would wish eo risk seeing Lybia and 55,000 Italian soldiers there cut off from communication and supplies. The vast mass of people of the manu- facturing and commercial classes, es- pecially of the provinces which have known the Austrian yoke, desires neu- trality. The King, the Premier, Signor Salan- dra, the Colonial Minister, Signor Fer- dinandino Martini and their colleagues are known to favor neutrality, upon which the Premier has insisted. It may be assumed that German and Austrian statesmen, knowing the Austrophile an- tecedents of the Foreign Minister, Sig- nor San Giulano, were led to believe that Italy would intervene in their behalf. A party in the Italian army and espe- cially in the general staff, whose leader is Gen. Cadorinna, is believed to be a confirmed triplicist and working for in- tervention in behalf of Germany and Austria. At the Foreign Office, too, four or five infiuential officers are said to be work- ing along the same line. The Italian Ambassador to Vienna since 1904, the Duke d’Avarna, is declared to be a strong Austrophile. But should the pro- Austrian party gain the upper hand. Signor Salandra, the Premier, would re- sign, and some believe that then and there would be such a demonstration of indignation, especially in the North, that the consequences to the war party would be most serious.

In- deed, unsupported by infantry, the Ger- man cavalry could hardly be expected to perform this task very completely. Pressure Irresistible. On the other hand, just as soon as the German infantry could come up, both along the Aix-Liege-Brussels line and south of the Meuse by Huy, it was cer- tain to force the far weaker Belgian army back, By last Saturday the press- ure of the German masses had become unmistakable, and the Belgian force was back on the last line in front of Brus- sels, from Louvain to Wavre and Ot- tignies, and the skirmishing was at places directly in front of this line. Meantime, the French mobilization Was completed, and as early as last Fri- day night Paris made the official an- nouncement that French soldiers had entered Belgium near Charleroi and were proceeding toward Gembloux. That is, they were marching to fill the gap between the Belgian forces on the Dyle and the fortress of Namur, through which the Germans were pressing, and had already made a raid on the famous battlefield of Ramillies. Their arrival at Gembloux has been noted subse- quently. The Belgians and French were in po- sition then, and in a position from which a successful defense might be made if it should be determined to make the first real stand here. But what of the English? Not until last Tuesday, Aug. 18, was it announced that the whole expeditionary army, per- haps 120,000 strong, was on the Contt- nent, although the arrival of 22,000 had been reported 10 days earlier. A Problem of Time. The problem then faced was: Could they reach the battle line in time to participate? English military observers doubted it. If they were right, the sec- ond question was inetantlx raised: Would the French general staff risk 1 decisive battle before the English came up? Again, many observers doubted it, and continue to doubt it, despite pres- ent indications of a great conflict. The reasons for such a risk are plain and weighty. The position is admirable, The whole German masses are jammed in between the Dyle-Demer and Meuse rivers. Opportunity for deploying and developing are lacking. Liege may still hold out, and if it does, it must still gravely complicate the prob- lem of transport and subsistence, Brussels taken, on the other hand, the German advance could spread out, the next natural obstacles would be within French territory, at Maybeuge. All Bel- gium, save the fortresses, would fall to the Germans. The moral effect would be great, the actual military advantage very considerable. Might Disorganize Allies. On the other hand, a bad defeat for the allies might mean a disorganization of their army, whereas to fall back would insure the arrival of the British army on the field selected for battle, and the Ger- would also mean the detaching of more German troops to guard communications and thus a smaller army to deal with at the decisive battle. Such, then, is the situation. It follows Belgiang had waged 80 effectively, for a few more and who is an American citizen, was selected by one paper to repre- sent it with the expeditionary force. His fate hangs in the balance. Field Marshal Kitchener is understood to have stated that he had no objec- tion to this particular American going under the circumstances.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—The British Embassy here today received from its Foreign Oifice a summary of the nava! and military situation to date. Colville Barclay, the Charge, sent a copy to Sec- retary Bryan. It follows: “Since the declaration of war, the fleet has been responsible for the safety of the expeditionary force which com- pleted its disembarkation in France on Aug. 18, which was effected in perfect order and without a casualty. “The work of the navy in the At- lantic and elsewhere in safeguarding the trade routes is best exemplified by the fact that at Lloyds yesterday the war risk rate ‘ell to @ shillings per cent for almost any voyages of British vessels, whereas the rate to insure freight of corn, paid by steamers from the United States to a British port, is * shillings per cent. “The German fleet outside the Baltic is confined to harbors.

BRUSSELS, via London, Aug. 20.— Brussels was very nervous last evening and there seems to be good reasons. All the official . statements as to the position of the enemy are reassuring, but so they have been every.day. The nerves of the residents are taut and strained. Notices were posted in the streets last night noti- fying the citizens that any civilian with arms about him should turn them over to the police, as he is liable to be shot by any Solemn Conclave of College of Cardinals Begin Within Ten Days and Continus Until Selection Is Made. lock to permit a sick Cardinal to or a late-arriving one to enter. 8 Archbishop Glennon recently out- ö lined from Baart's Roman Court“ for 0 day against the Beigian position. approach to Louvain, Brussels and Ant- | “Yesterday's fighting started at 3:30 n. m.

Their distribution * seemed to be as significant as the depar- ture Tuesday of the royal family and that of the Minister of State to Antwerp. Significant, too, are the barricades and entrenchments that have been built or dug all around the city, especially 10 the south and east. Sadly Reconciled to Fate. The Brussels citizens are sadly recon- elled if their beautiful city must be sac- rificed in the game the Powers are play- ing. They look upon it as merely on a level with the usual fate of Belgium, in whose plains Fontenoy, Ligney, Water- loo, Necrwinden, Fluerens and a score of other great batties have been fought. But against this pessimistic outlook 's the prospect of aggressive action by the allies. From a good source I have news that the French Generals have chosen their battleground and now have the Germans in such a position they cannot avoid fighting a battle in which two- thirds of their army of the North must engage the great body of the French army, which has been rolled up into This battle will decide the fate of ‘Brussels if that has not already been de- eided by giving it as a bait to Germany. “Tt win also in a large measure decide thé fate of the war on this northern ‘side, perhaps of the whole war.

From other indications, and what I have seen myseli in a hurried run I made late yesterday afternoon from here out toward the eastern line, to reassure myself things were quiet, as I expected to find them, and I did find them, I have not the slightest doubt the pressure is slowly turning against the invaders. In fact, I will say there are real grounds for belief that within a week or so the Germans may be on the de- fensive, fighting for their lives. In my run I could feel the difference in the atniosphere at the different points where the lines have touched. It is a curiously subtle thing, this ques- tion of attack and defense. Germans Vow to Win or Die. That the carnage will be awful, if the Germans are forced to the defens- ive, is ‘shown by ‘a’ statement in a Belgian paper that the German offi- cers have taken an oath not to return to the Fatherland unless they are vic- torious. Anyone who knows of what tnbend- ing stuff the Prussian officer is made, will feel quite certain they will keep their oaths. The battle is likely to be at its worst down between Dinant and Namur, in the sense it will be a case of lance to lance and bayonet against bayonet up and Gown the steep hills that border the Meuse. But on the battlefield which the French have chosen, their wonder- ful artillery will have full sweep, end unless the Germans abandon their usual methods of massed formations, the slaughter will be terrible. Wher- ever the English are, too, there will be plenty of cut and thrust and cold steel as well as good marksmanship.

Bere Re PARIS, Aug. 2.—An officer of a French rifle regiment gives to the Petit Troyen the following account of the cap- ture of the first German flag: “The engagement of the French troops with the Ninety-ninth Brigade of Germans lasted from 5:30 a. m. to 9 at night. “The artillery combat was terrible.

POPE PIUS x Pontiff Overwhelmed to End by European Conflict @ontinued From Page 1.) will find its resting place. It is recalled that carrying the body of Pius IX from St. Peter's to St. Lawrence caused a riot. For this reason the body of Pope Leo, although he had expressed a wish to be buried in St. John Lateran, where his tomb was erected, is still in St. Peter’s, as the late Pope feared that the transportation might cause disorders. It is believed that Pius X chose St. Peter’s for his tomb to av _ the possibility of um pleasantness. The Giornale d’Italia today says the Pope W drew up new rules to govern future conclaves and that these abolished the right of the veto of foreign powers, thus freeing the Cardinals of temporal influence in spirit- val matters. The new rules also, the paper says, modified some of the formalities concerning the duration of the conclave. Cardinal Della Volpe, chamberlain of the church, will direct the Holy See temporarily and will conduct the traditional ceremony in which the Pontiff is officially pronounced dead. In this ceremony the chamberlain lifts the covering from the face of the dead, and with a silver hammer touches the forehead three times, saying each time: Guiseppe Sarto.’’ When there is no reply ne announces: „The Pope is really dead. This is done in the presence of the cardinals, a few intimates of the dead and the penetentiaries of St. Peter’ s, who will prepare the body for the tomb. The Sacred College will decide on the day upon which it will be transported to St. Peter's for three days! chapel sacrament, before buria? The funeral service will be held in the Sistine chapel. The rising sun which gilded the image of St. Joseph on the wall by the Pontiff % bed, found the Franciscan penetentiaries keeping. the dead watch and murmuring prayers. Outside, St. Peters Square, which had been filled throughout the night with persons of every rank until the death of the Pope was announeed, was deserted. Monsignor Zampini, of the Pope’s household, a:sisted by the secretary and the Pontiff’s valet, laid out the body, placed the crucifix in the hands and stationed lighted candles about the bed. Throughout the night carriages crowded near the Vatican bringing diplo- wats and noblemen. The Knights of Malta /mingled with Bishops, priests, monks and nuns, making inquiry in- many tongues. Those who were ad- mitted to the palace climbed the royal staircase to the papal ante chamber, where Swiss guards in their multi-colored uniforms paraded solemnly up an‘ down. After midnight, through instructions personally imparted by Cardinal Merry del Val, entrance to the apostolic palace was forbidden, while those aii, We * na. ex comunicate with those out- 88 8 yo 5 Dae RS. ö gaye Sf pies ‘ade jn sig Gee 5 * A | * — A delay in issuing a bulletin at night caused suspicion that the end had come, while the withdrawal of the Noble Guard from before the door of the sick chamber caused the rumor that the Pope was better as the guard is supposed to maintain watch over the person of the Pontiff, without pause, until death ensues or he is out of danger. It was learned that the guard had een withdrawn, howevebr, because of overfatigue. Nobles and citizens wishing to hear the latest word from the bedside gathered in groups in the streets near the Vatican. Some of them shed tears and there were whispered stories of the goodness of the Pope and the piety of his sisters. Urgent telegrams were sent to Cardinal Farley, who is in Switzerland, and the Holy See notified all the Cardinals living in Rome or other parts of Italy of the grave situation. were notified. All the churches and clergy in Rome likewise Chamberlain Summoned to Tak e Charge of Church. Cardinal Della Volpe, Chamberlain of the Church, who, on the Pope’s death, assumes direction of the Holy See during the interregnum, was sum- moned from Imola, and started immediately. A message was sent to the Pope’s brother, Angelo, urging him to come to Rome as quickly as possible, while the Pope’s niece, Signora Parolin, reached the Vatican before death ensued. Confusion reigned at the Vatican because, with the exception of tho Papal Secretary, those who take charge of affairs in such an emergency were out of Rome, so little expected was the death of the Pope. Outside the apostolic palace the stene was mournful, From early in the day automobiles and carriages carrying Cardinals and high ecclesiastics to the Vatican passed continuously. Hundreds of visitors made inquiry regarding the Pope’s condition and so many telegrams arrived that it was impossible,to open half of them. The Giornale d'Italia, discussing the difficulty ot nolding a conclave for the election of a Pope, while Europe is at war, says that even if Italy wers among the belligerents, every facility would be given to the Sacred College to meet. It expresses the belief that a new Pope might be chosen from among the foreign cardinals, for instance, Cardinal William Van Rossum, of the archdiocese of Utrecht, The Netherlands, who would be representative of a neutral power. The Tribuna says: „The Pope was the victim of the war. In these latter days he dictated a great number of dispatches and tried to avoid the horrors of an European war. Shows Distress Over War in His The rupture of peace broke down th legt remnants of his strength. i 1 Hours. That the Pope was grieving deeply over the state of war in Europe, even to the last was svidenced by his words during one of his lucid moments in the afternoon.

Now in different fields they are armed ain each other, ready to take each others lives. So Overwhelmed by War, He Could Not Withstand Gouty Catarrh The Pope’s last illness began almost coincidentally with the war in Europe. Those close to him believe that grief over the situation brought on the final crisis, and so overwhelmed him that he was unable in his eightieth year to with- stand still another attack of his old enemy, gouty catarrh. III health had been the Pontift's lot for many years, and, intermittently, the attacks have been so serious that the world was pre- pared several times to hear of his death. During the summer there id been numerous denials from the V ican that his indisposition was serio’ s As late as Aug. 10 i; t, on the eleventh anniver- sary of his c »nation, Pope Pius grant- ed numerous audiences. Two days later it became known that he had canceled virtually all engage- ments. His attendants reported he was unable to work, and that he sat listless and silent for hours, evidently brooding over the great clash of arms in Europe. His physician, Dr. Marchiafava, or- dered His Holiness to bed Aug. 16, when it Was announced that the war and the intense heat in Rome had combined to depress him. In bed he continued to dream of the conflict by night and to discuss it by day. Mental Hilmess to Deal With. “I shall not cease to implore God to put a stop to this inhuman butchery,” he declared. His physicians had to deal with this mental condition as well as physical suffering. Arrangements were made by which Cardinal Merry del Val, the papal secretary of state, would give a daily report on the war. The Pope desired to see some way in which he might use his influence to check the bloodshed, and he was the more affect: ed .because any action seemed useless. At the commencement of the Euro- pean crisis he had addressed an ¢x- hortation to all the Catholics of the world, asking them to lift their. souls toward Christ. — wae able. to 1 * 2 W.

The break between Austria and Servia from the first became a source of great grief to him, for the Vatican was most friendly toward both nations. He wa’ shocked, he said, at the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdfnand, ths heir to the Austrian throne, who, like all the Hapsburgs, was an ardent Cath- olic, and was sympathetic toward littie Servia, with which the Vatican had oniy recently concluded a friendly concorda~. The Pope's views on peace, embodied in an allocution delivered at the con- sistory at which he created 18 new cardinals last May, constituted such a remarkable document that, the Carnegie Peace Union, founded in February by Ardrew Carnegie with an endowment of $2,000,000, decided to begin among the clergy of the Roman Catholic Church its educational activities in behalf of dis- armament by sending to each of thé 22,000 priests of the United States and Canada a copy of this allocution. ‘In it the Pope referred to “men of dis- tinction and force planning schemes for preventing the calamities of revolutions and the slaughter of war, and for in- Hit g Eg > — the Post-Dispatch the procedure to de followed im the election of a new Pope. Following are the main steps in the choosing of the Pope: As soon as the Pope died all the of- ficials left the palace except the Car dinal-Camerlengo, whose office does not expire with the death of the Pope. The secretaries, if the canon law procedure was followed, brought the ring of th fisherman and the seal of the deceasod Pontiff to this Cardinal, who broke them with a hammer. The next step was for the Dean ol the Sacred College, the Senior Cardinal- Priest and the Senior Cardinal- Deacon together with the Cardinal-Camerlengo to assume the administration of this affairs of the Holy See. Notice was then sent by the Secre- tary to all the absent Cardinals inform ing them of the death of the Sovereign Pontiff. But they are not summoned by anyone to attend the election of the next Pope. The canon law is then guide. Wait 10 Days to Elect. The Cardinals, who were at court when the Pope died, will wait ten days for the arrival of the absent Cardinals. But if they hold an election either be- fore or after the ten days, it will be valid. services are held daily in St. Peter's for the deceased Pontiff, after which his body will be deposited in its provis- ional tomb. On the eleventh day the Cardinals gather in the basilica of St. Peter and the Cardinal-Dean celebrates the mass of the Holy Ghost. Then they proceed to the conclave in the Vatican Palace. The Pontifical constitutions concerning the election of the Sovereign Pontiff are read and the Cardinals promise under oath to observe them. Once having entered the conclave, they cannot leave until after the election of the new Pope. During the first ‘day, free access is granted to government representatives, princes, priests and peo- ple generally. But when evening comes all but the conclavists are rigorously excluded. Each Cardinal goes to his cell, over which is his coat of arma, covered with green serge or with pur- ple, if he has been created by the de- ceased Pontiff.

Tuesday Dr. Marchiafava an- nounced the Pope was suffering from a simple cold and that possibly complete rest for a week would restore him to his usual health. The bronchial condi- tion spread, however, and Wednesday it was announced the Pope's condition was serious. Dr. Marchiafava was able to leave the Vatican for a time owing to the ameéli- ioration of symptoms. Dr. Amici ex- plained that the sudden collapse was due to the Pontiff's age and the gouty affection which always combine to give bronchial catarrh of an acute nature a serious character. Dr. Amici further explained that the Pontiff's dimished vitality, caused by old age, might make his illness fatal. The practice of living in heated rooms and breathing the vi- tiated atmosphere, as the result of large assemblages in the papal apartments, was against him, and, he added, the peo. ple would now understand why the at- tending physicians were strongly op- posed to the resumption of collective audiences.

They wear the ordinary dress of the though Italian peasant woman, and they often visited their brother at the Vatican they never let his exalted position turn their heads. Once when a newspaper man remarked to Maria that her brother was a saint, she replied simply, Buono, si; ma un santo, no!“ (Good, yes; but a saint, no). The beaming eyes, laughing mouth of that little Sarto lad won the parish priest at Riese. This good man helped him with his lessons, watched over his schooling, and after a few years en- couraged him in his feeling that the church was his vocation. This priest interested the Bishop of Treviso in the lad, and he was received at the diocesan’ seminary and subsequently attended the University of Padua, one of the most ancient and still one of the greatest in the world. He was 23 years old when consecra- ted at Castelfranco. The succeeding nine years he spent as assistant to the priest at Tombolo; province of Padua, a village of 2960 inhabitants.

O’Con- nell of Boston, and His Eminence, Diomede Falconio, former Apostolic Delegate at Washington, D. C. (From a statement furnished by the Chancellor of the Diocese of New York.) never talked politics; his politica) opinions were unknown. He looked upon the Church as a spiritual insti- tution and not as a political power. On the occasion of the opening of the Internationa? Art Exhibition in the spring of 1903 King Victor Eman- uel went to Venice. Some bishops would have ignored his presence. Not so Cardinal Sarto, who called upon the King in state, being rowed to the palace in his official gondola. When the King heard of his presence he left the Prefect, with whom he Was engaged, and went out to the ante- chamber to receive the Cardl- nal. RODE DOWN GRAND CANAL WITH THE KING AND ROYAL GUARD. „FEW minutes later the Venetians A were delighted with the sight of the King and the Cardinal side by side passing down the Grand Canal in a state gondola, while the soldiers saluted them. f Cardinal Sarto always maintained friendly relations with the members of the House of Savoy. So much 80. in fact, that at the time of the con- clave after Leo XIII's death, it was said that Sarto was the “Quirinal candidate” for the papacy. Cardinal Sarto brought about many reforms in the diocese of Venice, One of the most notable was the aboli- tion of profane music from the churches and the revival of the Gregorian chant, which is the historic musical language of the church. He was a good musician, playing the piano well himself and lov- ing to hear good music played by others. A fellow Cardinal says of his election as Pope: “The votes for Cardinal Sarto steadily increased from the first to the seventh ballot, on which he was elected. When the Cardinal observed that the Suffrages for him were aug- menting, he was visibly disturbed, and in a fervent speech he implored his colleagues not to regard him as a candidate. Contrary to his wishes, the votes for him increased. He then became alarmed, and in a second speech, in most pathetic language, he again besought the Cardinals to for- get his name, as he could not accept a burden too heavy for him to bear. NEVER DID A PRISONER MAKE A GREATER EFFORT TO ES- CAPE.“ A LL were moved by the modesty and sincerity of the man. When he resumed his seat his cheeks were suffused with blushes, tears were gushing from his eyes and his body trembled with emotion. It was only after some of the leading Cardinals entreated him to withdraw his opposition that he finally and reluctantly consented to .abide by the will of God and accept the sacrifice. Never did a prisoner make greater efforts to escape from his con- finement than did Cardinal Sarto to eé- cape from the yoke of the Papacy. “When his election was officially an- nounced his florid countenance assumed a deathly pallor, and restoratives were applied to save him from fainting. So little did Cardinal Sarto expect to be the choice of his colleagues that on setting out for Rome he purchased a return éicket to his home in Venice.” The return half of that ticket will- never be used. Having been installed in the chair of St. Peter and chosen the name of Pius, the new Pope began to direct affairs as he believed St. Peter would have direct- ed them. The same methods he had used as priest and bishop and patri- arch he brought to this higher and verter sphere. “To renew all things in Christ“ was the motto he selected. He did nothing hastily; he spent many months in studying men and thethods. He selected Cardinal Merry del Val as his Secretary of State and he at ence permitted unofficial negotiations to be orenec looking to a healing ef the breach between the Vatican and the Quirinal. Unfortunately, these fell through. ENFORCED MANY ECONOMIES IN ADMINISTRATION OF THE VATICAN. BE. reformed the administration of 4 Nl D oo — — — — — ORS a Ro NIS existed; that others had been anti- bol es, others usurpers and ethers proved to be identical with popes en the list un- der other names. He abolished the Con- gregatlon of Indulgences and Relics. He fortade throughout the world the use of profane music in churches and the presence of women in choirs. Strong ef- furts were made, especially in America, to persuade him te grant exceptions in this latter case, but the order was re- peated in no unmistakable language and tre unwilling bishops were ebliged to submit. The most important event of his pa- pacy Was the separation of church and state in France, with the attendant con- fiscation ef all church property, the closing of monasteriés and convents, the expulsion of the religious orders and the banishing of all religious teaching from the schools. This has beén point- ed to as an illustration of the inca- pacity of Pius X as a diplomat, but it is difficult te see how. with a succession ot governments such as France has had since the death of Leo XIII it could have been prevent even by the most astute of diplomats. Nor feature of his reign was A his condemnation of the so-called Modernism. This was an at- tempt on the part of certain churchmen to reconcile religion and science by seeking a material explanation for all supposedly super- natural phenomena. Pius X regarded | be, as an insidious attack upen the very foundations of religion, hence he con- demned it, although he knew it must drive some great men out of the church. He took so uncompromising a position in this matter that he directed every bishop and priest to take an oath against “Modernism” and gave them until Jan. 1, 1911, to do it. In appearance Pope Pius X was & man of average height, with large, kind eyes, a gently, humorous, yet_firm, en- ergetic mouth, broad shoulders and the powerful hands of a working man in giving a hearty grip. He had abundant gray hair that was generally tousied. He spoke with a magnificent, soft voice and in the words of Cardinal Gibbens, “His simple, strong exterior correspond- ed with his spiritual intellectual mar- acter.”’ a Secretary Bryan, for President, Ca- bles Tribute to Pius X. WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—At the re- quest of President Wilson, Secretary Bryan today sent the following tele- gram to the Vatican: “The President desires me to express his sense of the great loss which the Christian world has sustained in the death of His Holiness Pius X. By his pure and gentle life, his unaffected piety and his broad and thoughtful sympathy with his fellowmen, he adorned his ex- alted station and attracted te himself the affectionate regard of all whe felt his world-wide influence.“ 4 TOTAL ECLIPSE OF SUN TOMORROW UNTRIES AT WAR It Win Last 2 Hours in Russia and a Shorter Time in France and Germany. A total eclipse of the sun Friday will cast a shadow over war-distracted Eu- rope and will be interpreted, no doubt, by many of the peasantry as a sign of God's wrath toward warring men. It is not improbable that the \darkening of the sun at midday may so fill with su- perstitious terror many of the over- wrought soldiers, fighting for a cause they do not comprehend, as to bring dis- aster to the plans of Generals. This eclipse is a recurring phenom- enon. At the end of every period of 18 years and ll days the moon comes de- tween the earth and the sun at just such an angle that the sun’s light is completely shut off from a portion of the to finish in Beluchistan and Southern India. b 7 In Russia the total eclipse will last for two hours and 14 secopds, but the par- tality will cover almost two hours.

NELMS CHARGES INNES WITH MURDER BY POISON Affidavit Says. Lawyer and His Wife Caused Death of Two Missing Sisters. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Aug. 2.—The affidavit of Marshall Nelms, upon which a warrant was issued ch g Attor- ney Innes with the murder of Nelms’ two sisters, was made public late yester- day. It accuses both Innes and his wife of murder and makes the specific charge of poisoning. It reads: ‘Victor E. Innes and Mrs. Victor E. Innes, alias Mrs. Ida May Innes, alias Mrs. Margaret Mims, alias Mrs. M. M. Hardemann, in the county of Bexar and State of Texas, on or about the fif- teenth day of June, 1914, did, with malice aforethought, kill Blois Nelms Dennis and Beatrice Nelms, by then and there administering poison.” Innes and his wife, charged with mur- der, are under arrest at Eugene, Ore., where the arrival of extradition papers granted yesterday by Gov. Colquitt is awaited. Mrs. Dennis and her sister disappeared more than two months ago when trav- eling in the South. Nothing has been heard from them since their mother re- ceived a letter in San Francisco from Mrs. Dennis, dated New Orleans, in which the writer said she had killed her sister and intended to kill her brother. Innes was attorney for Mrs. Dennis in a 4Givorce sult. Marshall Nelms started an investigation which led to the affidavit against Innes when he learned Mrs. Dennis had signed notes for nearly $10,000 in Innes’ favor.

CORN CROP ESTIMATED AT 2,700,000,000 BUSHELS United States Chamber of Com- merce Expects Production to Be Slightly Above Normal. WASHINGTON, Aug. Production of 2,700,000,000 bushels of corn in the United States this year is the forecast today of the Committee on Statistics and Standards of the Chamber of Com- merce of the United States. Its report is based on data recently secured. The outlook is for about a normal crop, since the average for 10 years is 260,000,000 bushels. The committee’s reports show that conditions are very good in some sec- tions and very poor in others. Exces- sive rain in the early growing season and later drouths have fmjured the crop in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missourl. Kentucky, Mississippi, Louis ana and Alabama suffered from a severe drouth. The prospective crop in Missouri 16 probably 175,000,000 to 180,000,000 bushels, and in Illinois 25,000,000 30 30,000,000 bush- Sh ney eh 74 mae WY . 5 ba hire y N oe a oe, ee eis Se den 08 Ps 5 iS * Recher RE BAS 8 * E * ps _ + K Womens New Fall Shoes 95 11 have the most desired Shoe styles sold in advance of 5 1 a “season at such a remarkably low price—all splendid on Sale in ain Room ities in patent and dull leathers—some velvets—$#3.00 and $3.50 qualities I $1.95. : 8 . dark patterns, some m from broken og S Shoe Sale is the talk of St. Louis—never before clean-up price on splendid goods.

And Mrs. Jaspering and Mrs. Ryan claim as well that they also have shat- tered the 13“ and 23% hoodoos at the inasmuch as the entertain- ment was set for Aug. 13, the Jasper- ing street’ number was 1323, the num- ber of features on the entertainment program was 13, and the total amount earned was $313.23. The shattering of the ‘13’’ hoodoo was even emphasized by the postponement of their carnival from that date, be- cause the rainstorm of the 13th delight- fully freshened the Jawn. where the carnival took place and the postpone- ment increased the sale of tickets and insured even a larger attendance. The advance sale of tickets was in itself one of the brilliant successes of the entertainment. This success was due to the noble efforts of the four of- ficial ticket-sellers, Misses Melba Jas- pering, Jessie Weiss, Blanche Watkins THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 20, 1914 ° | tne following five talegted young mu- sicians: Oliver Robinson, piano; Jake Stille, cornet; Frank Linsley, violin; Cleon Stephens, clarinet, and Joseph Pod, drums. A similar sticcoess characterized all other features of the evening. The big lotto tournament agsumed overflow proportions, so many and hand- some were the prizes known to be of- fered, and the demand for seats at the lotto tables was so great that a second series of games had to be ar- ranged for the following (Saturday) afternoon, the proceeds of these games. the attendance at which again crowded the Jaspering residence, also going to increase the total receipts. ö Many of the beautiful prizes awarded tc the ladies and gentlemen taking part in the lotto games were donated for the occasion, the donors being duly men- tioned in the list of those to whom Mrs. Jespering and Mrs. Ryan return thanks for generous assistance toward the grea‘ success of their entertainment. A piano donated by the Baldwin Piano Co. was disposed of and became the property of Mr. A. Frelermuth of 1267 Purcell av- enue, Wellston, and a chocolate set donated by Mrs. Jaspering herself be- came the property of Mrs. Mary Hy- singer of 5831 Minerva avenue, who sig- nalized her good fortune by donating | $1.50 to the Pure M Fund. Mrs. Jas- pering also donated a hand-painted vegetable bowl, cake plate and dinner plate, and Mrs. Ryan donated three pieces of hand-painted china. So thoroughly enjoyable was the en- tertainment that its pleasant progress was continued until after midnight. The departing guests all were heartily em- phatic in testifying to the pleasure of which they had been the beneficiaries. The brilliant affair now goes on record as far and away the largest and most completely successful entertainment of tts kind ever given for the bengfit of the. Pure Milk Fund to save the little ones of the poor. Mrs. Jaspering and Mrs. Ryan were indefatigable in their efforts to achieve this mémorable success, and it is to their untiring supervision and skillful di- rection of all its details that the magni- tude of the success is mainly due. They fully and gratefully appreciate, how- ever, the loyal support which they re ceived, without which their own work could not have been so fully rewarded. They wish now to return thanks to the following individuals and business concerns: The four brilliant ticket sell- ers, Misses Melba Jaspering, Jessie Weiss, Blanche Watkins and Anna Hyams; especial thanks to Miss Myrtle Robinson for assistance in ticket selling and in obtaining donations; the Baldwin Fiano Co. for its gift of a piano; the Lammert Drug Store, Page and Hodia- mont avenues; Right Ice Cream Co., 5600 Etzel avenue; Leimkuehler Dry Goods Co., 1296 Hodiamont avenue; Victor Dry Goods Co., 6125 Page avenue; Whitcomb Pharmacy, Belt and Suburban avenues; Grafeman Dairy Co., Page Ice Cream Co., 1288 Hodiamont avenue; Klatt Gro- cery Co., Waldbart & Son, florists, Ham- fiton avenue and Horton ‘place; Henry Young & Son, florists, 4651 Maryland avenue; Ludlow-Saylor Wire Co., p- horst.

A tornado passing between Edwards ville and Collinsville yesterday after- noon nearly wrecked the town of Mary- ville. Four steel stacks on the power- house of the Donk Bros.’ Coal and Coke Co. were torn down and driver through the buildings beneath them. A part of the upper works of the mine was torn off and carried half a mile and dropped on the car barns of the East St. Louis & Suburban. The mine will be closed for two weeks. A boarding house containing a dozen persons was moved several feet off its foundation, and a dozen barns and other buildings, together with miles of fences, were destroyed. The air was filled with debris. One of the oddest incidents was at the home of Mrs. L. D. Mendenhall at 211 Fourth street, Coilinsville. Aroused by a crash she went to the back door and found tat the storm had deposited a galvanized iron washtub on her porch. Where it came from has not been ds- certained. A downpour of rain in St. Louis yes- terday afternoon was followed last night by a second storm, the total precipita- tion being 2.08 inches. The rain was ac- companied by a wind, which at times reached a velocity of 40 miles an hour. Streets were flooded, sewers clogged and telephone wires Diown down. There was a drop of 18 degrees in temperature between noon and 1 p. m., from 90 to 78. Petti Galetta of 5241 Wilson avenue, | a street laborer, was killed on Manches- ter avenue a few feet west of the city limits, when he attempted to remove a telephone wire which had biown down. It had fallen across a street railway trolley wire, and he was electrocuted. Sewers in the vicinity of Sixth street and Washington avenue became clogged and water spread over the streets and stood two inches deep on the sidewalks. Pedestrians sought refuge in stores. A barn near Edwardsville, in which A. H. Bode and five children had gone to get out of the rain, was blown down. Bode was injured. There were several cases of persons being injured by fallen live wires in the city, and several accidents indirectly due to the storm. The Hyde Park Bre - ery, at Twentieth and Salisbury streets, was slightly damaged by lightning, as was also the residence of Mrs. Anna residence of Mrs. C. Bond, at 1808 South Compton avenue, Ministers Arm Broken as Storm Strikes Chautauqua Tent MOBERLY. Mo., Aug. 20.—A heavy wind and rainstorm, accompanied by hail, struck Moberly yesterday evening and tore down. trees, unroofed build- ings and smashed store fronts. The Rev. Mr. Larkin of Montgomery, plat- form manager at the Chautauqua here, sustained a broken arm when the big tent cdéllapsed. An automobile occupied by Mrs. H. E. Sauer, wife of the Northern Centra) Coal Co. manager, and Mrs. O. O. Ash, wife of a Moberly ‘physician, was blown over, pinioning the womén beneath it. They escaped with slight bruises. Sev eral houses were struck by lightning. The storm lasted for more than an hour, during which time four inches of rain fell. Damage to property here is estimated at 35000. Wind Moves Farm Houses From Their Foundations. VANDALIA, III., Aug. 20.—The north- ern part of this county was visited by a terrific wind and hail storm yesterday evening. Houses were moved from their foundations, outbuildings, trees and silos Were blown down and demolished. The rain will be of great benefit to the late corn and pastures. More than one inch of water fell. One Minute Toothache Stick Stops toothache quick. All drugists, 100. 30 MINERS INJURED IN HEAD-ON COLLISION OTTUMWA, Io., Aug. 20.—A head-on collision between a Rock Island miners’ special and freight train at the Alpine mines, a few miles east of here, early today, resulted in the injury of ® miners, none of them seriaualy. The miners’ special was carrying em- ployes from Ottumwa to the Alpine mines, and the local freight No. 81 was coming toward Ottumwa. The freight train had a meeting order with the miners’ special, but the latter, owing to a heavy fog, was unable to see the local and crashed into it under low speed. Doctors from here in automobiles amd from Eldon on a special train hastened to the scene of the wreck and the men were removed to a local hospital. $10 DETROIT & RETURN $10 Via Clover Leaf Route, 505 Olive st. “CONVICT DETECTIVE” FREED BY GOV. MAJOR JEFFERSON CITY, Aug. 20.—Gov.

Knight Advertising Co., 365 North Boyle avenue, attempted to end her life this morning by drinking 2: bichloride of mercury tablets which she had dissolved in a glass of soda in Seidlitz & Baser's drug store, Boyle and Maryland avenue The woman went into the store earlier in the morning and asked for some anti- septic tablets. After getting them she went out of the store and returned in a few minutes, asked for a glass of soda. While the clerk’s back was turned she dropped the tablets into the water, and then said to him: Do you know Paul Feil, working for the Weber Floral Co.?“ (At Boyle and Maryland.) The clerk said that he did. Then you can tell him what I did,“ she answered. The clerk, guessing what she had done. phoned for an ambulance. While he was doing it she ran out of the store. She was stopped at Boyle avenue and Olive street by a policeman, who sent her to the city hospital, where her con- dition was pronounced serious. When policemen went to the Weber Floral Co. to interview Heil he left the place without giving them any satisfac- tion. | Mrs. Hyman Singer of 4451 Evans avenue, mother of the young woman, said that she had not seen her daugh- ter for three weeks, and did not know where she was living.

Fine- dancing at the big Carnival at St. Matthew's, Sarah street ond. Maffitt avenue, Thursday, guessed it, but he had to admit that it was so. The man said he was a strang- er here too, and was feeling a little lone- some, and he wondered if Frie would not like to go down to the river with him and see the two new gunboats that had been brought here to defend the city from attack during the European war. Frie said he would like it first rate, as they didn’t have any gunboats down in Arkansas, and they started east on Chestnut street. On the way the man confided to Frie that he was a Spring. field banker. At Eighth street two de- tectives recognized the man as Duncan Ross, alias Charley Ross, of Kansas City, a “lemon peddler,” which is police parlance for confidence man. When they stopped Ross and told him he would have to come along with them Frie was ‘indignant. -It was a shabby way, he thought, to treat a Springfield banker who took enough interest in an Arkansas stranger to take him down to the river and show him the giinboats.

This is done in the interests of the company, and for the purpose of con- serving its cash resources, and pro- tecting its credits.

THE NAVY GOING TO WORK. of quick relief for the blockade of American products seeking ready markets abroad. Wednes- day he was reported to have approved the plan; originally suggested and urged by the Post-Dis- patch for the Government to buy ships to be used for transportation of American foodstuffs to foreign markets. : It was agreed to ask Congress for an appro- rriation of $25,000,000 for this purpose. The acceptance of this practical and efficient plan of relieving the business crisis and breaking the commercial blockade marks a quick and decis- ive victory of sound judgment and progressive action in dealing with the emergency. The first suggestion of Government purchase of freight vessels was made in the Post-Dispatch of Aug. 9. Noting the crisis caused by the stoppage ot ocean transportation and the abandonment of grain trains, the Post-Dispatch demanded prompt action on the part of Congress to relieve the sit- vation. We said in part: Senator Newlands’ suggestion that the Government be authorized to provide for the construction of 30 vessels, to be used as aux- Uary ships to the navy or for use in com- mercial or navy mall lines, is good, but it does not offer aid in the present emergency. Why wait to build ships? Why not buy ships? If the American Government can au- _ thorise the building of ships for commerce, the American Government can buy ships for commerce. Most of the vessels belonging to French, British, German, Belgian and other foreign corporations and individuals, can be bought for a small percentage of their value. As a business policy the Government would do far better to appropriate sufficient money to buy a fleet of commercial vessels for im- mediate use, than to authorize the building of any number of vessels for use next year or the year after or five years hence, when the crisis is past.. It is doubtful whether admit- ting foreign-built ships to American registry would meet the emergency. It might help. But corporations would have to be organised, private capital enlisted and assurances of the safety of these ships would have to be given by Congress. Ships owned by the Government, operated under the American flag and put into com- mission solely for the purpose of meeting the needs of the civilized world, would be re- garded with approval by the European na- tions which will control the seas, and which have as much need for our foodstuff market. The opportunity for trade in South and Central America and in Asia: and Africa, which the Post-Dispatch urged the American merchants and manufacturers to seize de- pends upon adequate shipping facilities. Without means of distributing American pro- ducts, the opportunity does not exist. Con- gress can provide the means, Repeating the demand on August 11, we said, under the headline “Action, Action, Action!”: The country could well afford to spend millions in getting American prodtcts to for- eign markets all over the world. Every dol- lar expendeé in this way would be a splendid investment, not alone for the immediate profit, but for future trade with foreign countries which hitherto have bought sup- lies from Furope. 3 The great opportunity now inviting Ameri- can industry and trade depends upon ship- ping facilities. Private enterprise will sup- ply the deficiency in time, but it takes time to organize private capital. The Government is organized and has the men and the money. Action, action, action—that is the pressing duty of Congress and the administration. Keep the railroad trains moving: get the pro- ducts to the waiting markets. Commending Senator Stone’s able speech in sup- port of the plan we said on August 18: The Post-Dispatch repeats with urgent em- phasis our suggestion that the Government use all of its naval transport facilities and bring sufficient naval auxiliaries to meet the immediate emergency. Authorizing private capital to act under enlarged powers is a step in the right direction for the future, but it does not assure a supply of ships for the pressing needs of the farmers, manufacturers and merchants. It does not lift the blockade on American products which 16 putting the railroads out of business and is creating a menating business crisis. * * * The United States is now the supply depot of the civilized world. Whtther our supplies shall be utilized for the benefit of the Amer! can people who have the products to sell and the foreign people who need the products, de- pends upon whether we have the wisdom and the courage to use the Government resources and facilities which lie at hand; whether we have the breadth of mind and the strength of will to rise te the emergency and the oppor- tunity. Ocean shipping in this casé may be regarded merely as a public utility which the Govern- ment owns and operates for the public wel- fare. We can assure Congress that the pub- lic welfare ig greatly involved in the ques- tion. Hesitancy or failure to act up to our full powers and resources may inflict untold hardships on the people. Prompt congressional action on the plan ap- proved by the President will not only afford im- mediate relief of our glut ahd of foreign need, but will enable American producers to seize the great opportunities for profitable trade in markets abroad. If $25,000,000 is not. enough more should be appropriated. Every dollar expended for ocean ships now will bring ten in American benefits which will be shared immediately by other peo- ples. | While the Federal Government is using its or- ganized forces to keep American products moving to market, private capital can be organizing to build the permanent merchant marine and to gain the place in the ocean carrying traffic which rightfully belong to us. | UNSEEMLY HASTE. When a newspaper announces the death of a great public man several hours before his death; when it publishes several editions, repeating, with- out verification, what, in the light of fact, is false, the act may be characterized as unseemly haste.

This is one of the things they stfll do better in Burope. : The elasticity and adaptiveness of the Catholic church system was well illustrated in the con- trast between Pope Pius X, whose death has sent sorrow to millions of people throughout the civi- lized world, and his famous predecessor. Leo XIII was of aristocratic birth. As a Papal Delegate in Benevento and again in Perugia in early lite he used not only civil but military powers with decision and even sharpness. He moved in the world of affairs as an equal of the best intellects; and when, already 68 years old, ter century of activity as one of the master poli- ticlans of his time. He urged all Catholics to support the governments of the lands they lived in, even to condemning the Irish “plan of cam- paign” of 1888; was sympathetic with progres- sive ideas affecting laboring men; in a word, was alive to moderaity. Perhups after a statesman the church needed a Shepherd Pope, who would be a pattern to his flock of humble piety. Pius X was for 17 years a parish priest. His family was plain; himself simple and humble to a fault. At 45, an age when Leo had long been distinguished, he refused a bishopric. He was nearly 60 when he was final- ly made a Cardinal and patriarch of Venice, where for 10 years he continued to live with ut- most simplicity. He took to the Vatican a return railway ticket to Venice, which he nad procured on starting for Rome without personal expecta- tions to be elected a successor to Peter. He was not ambitious. Leo at his best, as when he brought Bismarck to Canossa and ended the German Kul- turkampf, or when he persuaded French Catholics to support the republic, much against their will, would probably have handled more skilfully than Pius the difficulties of France over the Concordat; he might have spared French priests and prelates some of the cruel consequences of the late troubles between church and state. But the strong Italian feeling of Pius enabled him in his own country to bring the relations between “blacks” and Whites“ to a far more satisfactory state; his well understood interest in the Italian cause in Tripoli brought him a generous share in the “era of good feeling” which that enterprise set up among Italian parties. That war extended the boundaries of Christen“ dom. His grief that his pontificate should see all Europe itself, the nourisher of Christianity, the first continent won for the Master, torn in bar- baric conflict, can be appreciated by a world which had come to know and accurately to ap- praise his fine spirituality. The words in which he himself described the heaviness of the blow; “our heart is wrung with the bitterest sorrow,” undoubtedly describe his true feeling. His death must be included among the earliest and most dramatic of the lamentable results flowing from this anachronistic war. Kindly, straightforward and devoted the late Pope was not a Leo; a strong lion of the church, a tamer of Emperors. His chosen title, Pius, de- scribed his character and fitted his pontificate. THE RUGGED SPIRIT OF THE YEAR. Speaking of war, the Anjerican football rules for 1914 require the ball to be put in play by a scrimmage on the 20-yard line after a touchback or safety. This is the principal change from the rules for 1918. It lays upon members of the weaker team a heavier task than they had last year, and with due respect, probably, for the current fashions, increases the likelihood of bro- ken bones and wrenched ankles. = = „ a SLOW TO LEARN. Herman Ridder, editor of the New York Staats Zeitung, urges the United States to forbid Japan to attack Germany’s Chinese colony at Kiauchau, and to assume guardianship of it herself. German-American citizens who counsel this country of their adoption to violate its neutral- ity and seek trouble, prove themselves wanting in due appreciation of the haven of liberty and security which they have found here, and slow to learn the lesson of the terrible events now taking place in Europe. 5 Germany seized her Chinese colony by force of arms, in defiance of the American policy for the preservation of China’s territorial integrity. The American policy, based on fundamental justice, has been and is: the Americas for the Americans, Europe for the Europeans, Asia tor the Asiatics—and free, friendly interchange of ideas and commodities between them all. There isn’t a chance that our Government will now be guilty of the folly of trying to pull Germany’s Chinese chestnuts out of the fire. = = * i i AN UNJUST DESHRTION CHARGE. Edward Murray was taken from his job with a bridge gang in Fort Smith, Ark., and brought to St. Louis under arrest as a deserter. After being imprisoned for two weeks it waé discovered that there was no case against him, as he had been dishonorably discharged from the army. He was then released, penniless and without transporta- tion back to his job. ; Whether the arrest was due to the zeal of some police officer anxious to earn a $50 reward, is not stated, but the case illustrates the practical work- ings of the policy of making desertion in time of peace a penal offense. The army should adopt the navy’s sensible plan of dealing with deserters. = = = i i WAR AND THE PANAMA SHOW. It is announced that whether or not the war is prolonged into 1915, the Panama Exposition at San Francisco will not be postponed. “Nations at peace cannot, even if they wish, avoid profiting by the disasters of the nations at war,” says Charles C. Moore, president of the company. “There is no ethical or economic reason why the progress of the whole world should be arrested becanse a por- tion of it is fighting.” | These are brave words when the effect on ex- Indies with half the population of the world and more than half of ite territory at war is con- j sidered.

He will make a thor- ough investigation of the affair. and took a chair along with him so he can sit down and rest on his laurels. Atlas Peck has been notified that he will soon have to give up his present position at the postoffice, as he is in the spot where the stove will have to set. Dock Hocks had to close down his blacksmith business Gpring the past few weeks, there being no surplus air te run the bellows with. Miss Hostetter Hocke sang several nice selections at the entertainment Thursday evening. She was assisted over the high places by Ras Barlow, on his little fiddle. Sim Flinders went into the Gander Creek woods yesterday to select a lot of game to shoot at when he goes hunting tomorrow. Some miscreants visited the Rye Straw store the other night and attempted to turn the building around, not knowing that the storekeeper had just put in his fall stock of goods. At the Postoffice a few days age Frisby Hancock brought up the subject of hawks, buzzards and other such wild game, and remembered the biggest hawk he ever saw was one over near Bounding Billows a He says it roeosted for many years in an old barn. It measured more than 60 feet from tip to tip, and many a time he has seen it swoop down and take a cow right out of the pasture in ite claws. Following this hawk was a young one that would always come right along behind and get the calf. Raz Barlow will leave in a day or two for a vacation trip through the Calf Ribs neighborhood.

BEANS VERSUS POPPIES. From the Chicago Journal. > China has advanced so far in her fight against opium that other crops are being planted in place of poppies. In the Chunking district large areas formerly devoted to poppy culture are now covered with a good crop of soya beans. The traditional beating of swords into plowshares was net a more notable victory for progress than this. The use of the land has been turned from death unte life in the most literal sense of the term. Instead of producing an insidious poison, the fields of Chunking are bearing ford; instead of a crop pe- culiarly exhausting to the soil has come one which enriches the soil. If the Chinese revolution had done noth- ing but deal the death blow te opium it would be many times worth while. IRONY OF FATE. From the Springfield Republican.

Then, glancing through a crevicé of the ground-glass door of his private office, he both'saw and heard the little, wrin- kled, gray-eyed man asking for the, dla- mond buyer. The vague suspicions which he had entertained now took defi- nite shape, and he hastily scribbled a line to the manager, instructing him to urge the visitor to return the néxt day, but when he left.to have a trusted clerk shadow him to his residence, no — where it might be. At 4 o'clock that afternoon the . 4 tary reported that the man lived out on Long Island and had just returned from abroad with some fancy pigeons he had exhibited there.

He was a new man in the shop of the big manufac- turing plant—and so far as the office knew or cared about him he was a human eutomaton engaged at a trifling wage to run a machine. The machine was new to George. All machines were new to him. It was, however, a contrivance of simple opera- tion, “‘fool-proof,” responding not so much to the brain as to the nervous tension and manipulative speed of the operator. There were five other machines in the shop just like the one before which George stood. The operators were stolid workmen—merely the human auto- matons they were hired to be. The foreman didn’t expect as much of George as he did of the othérs—at least. not at first. It takes monotonous repetition of even the simplest movements to gain unconscious, automatic speed. Usually Hit took a new man two or three weeks to wear into the groove. A rush order came in. The work. was divided among the six operators and the foreman reckoned it would take about two hours before the last piece course. George would be the last to report several minutes later than the others. An hour passed, and the foreman stood by George’s machine. He missed ita staccato clatter. George stood before the idle machine lost in thought. Look here, young feller,” the fore- man shouted, “don’t you know nue is a rush job?

I do not re- member that I spoke, excepting in monosyllables, all the way there. Mildred railed me upon my being 80 quiet, and I all but blurted out the cause. But suddenly the thought came to me: “Let her think you don't know. You didn’t. ask her to do it, and it will be $500 less than you will have to plan for.“ I had determined not to tell Jack of the picture until it was absolutely neces- sary, and it would be easier to confess to the $500—if I had to—than to a thou- sand. So I tried to throw off the feeling that possessed me, the feeling that Mil- dred had some ulterior motive in doing go extrayagant a thing.

She absolutely scintillated at times. We spent a couple of hours over our food, and then she ordered a cock- tail. As we sat sipping it, she remarked so casually that, had it not been for the episode of the morning, I should have thought nothing of it. „How is Jack coming on, Sue? Making money right along, 1 expect.“ ‘*"Yes—no,’’—I blundered. “He is doing well,“ I finished lamely. J thought so,“ she said meaningly. I tried to change the subject, but she | came directly back to Jack and his posi- tion in the office. “I saw that Mr. Cosgrove at the the- ater the other night and I_couldn’t help wondering if he had let Jack in on his j dig deal,“ she insinuated. Try as I would, it was impossible for me to help a look of surprise. So I was right and there was a big deal and Jack was in it! That was the reason he ‘had made so little fuss about the bills. He already had a way—of which I knew nothing—to meet them. The hot, angry blood rushed to my cheeks. I could have cried out In my indignation.

The two nations’ fighting force in the field at that time, roughly, was: Germany, 477,- 000 men; France, 210,000, In killed and wounded Germany was to lose 130,000 of these 477,000. ‘ The French, in two divisions, reached the Rhine. And there, on Aug. 2, the general fighting began. There, too, the French won their, first, last and only victory of the whole tragic war. The northern division of the French army (under Napoleon III in person), attacked Saarbrucken and, after a few hours of firing, drove out a small body of Prussians.

The one pe- ty victory was hailed with mad joy in France. It was the last chance for re- joicing that France was to have for many a long day. In three separate armies tes in the present war) the Germans crossed the Rhine. Each army was a perfect fight- ing..machine, made up of iron veterans and men to whom military training was a second nature. Without tents, the Germans marched, traveling light and traveling fast. Like a _ triple-headed make, the three armies glided into France, 8 (as in the present war) by swarms of Uhlans—light cav- alry armed with lances. Von Moltke, supreme strategist, had worked out the war beforehand like 3 problem in arithmetic. It was his aim to send the Germans into France in three sections; to unite these sections in the valley of the Moselle and to strike thence straight at France's heart by marching on Paris, practically the same plan of campaign as the Kaiser is now trying to carry out, Two days after the Saarbrucken - fair came the first great battle of the Franco-Prussian War.

The city of Paris has large and varied plantations just outside the fortifica- tions where flowers, exotic shrubs and trees are raised. One hundred and thirteen hothouses for plants, exotic shrubs and flowers are heated from one central heating plant, distributing hot water through a nine and one-half mile system of pipes. The object of this central heating organization 16 not, as the head gardener explains, with a view to economy. In ‘fact, such a system is far more costly than sep- arate installations for each group of hothouses, but is thus arranged to avoid the existence of a series of unsightly chimneys which would destroy the art- istic effect of the grounds, which are more or less a public resort and show place.

Have Hopes of Doing Better. WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.—Having gained an even break so far in the two gamies played with the Nationals, Man- ager Rickey will strive for the odd ver- dict in today’s contest by using Walter Léverenz, his third left-hander. . Lever- enz is ‘rounding to form after having been practically useless all summer and the Browns’ manager has hopes of the 88 coming through with a victory. falter Johnson, who is having the most miserable season of his career, may face the Browns. Yesterday’s game was won by the Browns, 5—5, because they patted every pitcher Manager Griffith used. Harper, Shaw, Bentley and Barron were used in that order. Long Carl Weilman started hurling for the Browns and did splen- didly until the seventh. Then he filled the 14 and Roy Mitchell came in and stopped the rally. Mitchell, however, had a bit of difficulty in the eighth when the Griffmen shoved over four runs. However, the Browns had a winning advantaz?2. Two More for Lavan. Manager Rickey again shifted his line- up with good results. Johnny Lavan, who has been hitting like a house afira, was used as the new lead-off and did well. John got two hits. Clarence Walk- er got in the lineup long enough to nick a single ind Ernie Walker finished out. After George McBride, the Washington shortstop, nad made an error yesterday two fans in the upper tier of the stand began exchanging punches. After one had berated the inflelder the other re- sented the remark and they were mak- ing matters so interesting that a police- man had to pry them apart. Strange to say, Washington fans do not appre- ciate the great work of McBride. Weilman evidently was displeased at being removed from the game and he sfired his love into the bench as he strode off the field. After he had muttered Roemet hing: Manager Rickey followed him to the coop and had a few things to say to the string. Praise for Rondeau. Scout Mike Kahoe of the Washing- ton club, returned today from a jaunt in the bushes with proud praises for Henri Rondeau, the catcher-out- fielder whom he obtained from the Minneapolis (American Association) team. Rondeau, a former Tiger, will not report until next spring. The Washington club ig to give Joe Can- tillon 2 players the Frenchman. Kahoe thwarted efforts of the Fed- eral League to seize Rondeau by signing him to a Washington con- tract immediately after the deal with in exchange forf Will the Cards Cop the Flag? 1 Four clubs of dubious past per- I and wholly uncertain fu- ture showing are still in the hunt. Two of them, the Cubs and Giants, al pear to have reached a erisis which will decide whether they are wholly broken teams or — faltering before a final rally. F you wish to flag the attention of the lunacy commission; the best way to do it is to attempt an answer to the above question. Considering the facts the dropping of a roulette ball could be 28 out quite as readliy as the National League baseball situation. Brookes Fading Fast. Mroremues punishing play the recent match showed that Brookes is rapidly fading. Another year or two will 17 him out of the running against speed and endurance of McLoughlin ons and the wna nich Another club, St. Louis, appears to have passed its crisis and to be on the mend. The other club, Boston, has come from behind with a tre- mendous rush and is still going forward under the impetus, It is facing a situation tat may set it back considerably, Omitting the handica three games behind, NALS, THEREFORE, APPEAR TO OCCUPY THE MOST ENVIABLE PO- SITION as regards fitness for makin a strong finish. Considerations o schedule and other points are about equal, so optimists consider that the Cards have a shade the edge on ri- vals as regards opportunity. That’s about the best you can de- duce from known facts. You can spend the month of September .cuess- ing, however, jf you 11 ce the sport. The Weide Stranger. NE factor in the race may break up combinations in a manner not foreseen by the star gazers of the baseball world. This comet now blazing through the baseball firma. ment was recently as dull as an ex- tinct crater. The element now running wild is the Pittsburg club, rejuvenated since the wholesale slaughter of former Cardinals and other deadwood. Pittsburg has lost but one gamo in the last eight. Its team strength has materially improved, and it is getting better pitching. The club has recently trimmed the Cardinals in a double-header, has beaten the Giants the odd game in three, and now opposes Boston in a series. — here may come the check to its — that the 3 elub has fea Incidentall chance for the Cards to gain afforded.

U ees Nee SR ASRS Sete dN Ce: SALE —— NEW YORK, Aug. . Business on the outside market for securities has in- creased to such an extent that there is some difficulty in handling the trans- actions. This has caused agitation in certain quarters for an early opening of the stock exchange. Some commission house mefi assert that if outside trading is conti much longer, a permanent or zation may be formed. This possibility is not relished by exchange members, who see % lessening of their business, following heavy losses in commissions and ex- Denses, while the market hes been closed. The opening of the San Fran- cisco Stock Exchange without serious trouble has had a good influence on sen- timent in the financial ct. Foreign news still was uncertain and there was nothing in the early advices to suggest an immediate resumption of business on the London Stock Exchange. The Bank of England’ discount rate is unchanged at 5 per cent. Trade reports of course are uncertain, but the general situation appears sound. The Iron Trade view says: “With shipments suddenly terminated by the war, English consumers of stee products who have been dependent — Belgium and Germany for their require- ments, are now turning to American mills to meet their needs. Steel manu- facturers are ving numerous in- lets, skelp and wire rods for shipment to England, and one lot of 10,000 tons of billets is nearing the closing stage. The demand for steel bars from the Pa- cific Coast is surprisingly heavy, and New England consumers, whose supply | from Belgian mills has been cut off, are placing orders for their immediate needs with American p ucers. Inquiries for steel also are being received from South America and Japan, although none has yet been converted into ordérs. Mined oe sage of the shipping bill will the tensity of the export trade situa- tion to some extent, although the avail- able bottoms will continue to restrict ream 2 k Report Is Geeod. The Bank of England’s weekly state - ment fully reflected the remarkable London financiering of the week. With its loans now guaranteed by the Brit- ish exchecquer, the bank has been re- ciscounting all the week on such a scale that its office force could not examine names, security and standing with suff- clent rapidity to keep up with Lombard street’s applications. Pven today it shut down early in the - | forenoon on the further rediscounts until tomorrow, obviously with a view: to overtaking the work already accumu- lated. The weekly statement shows the result of this process in a loan expan- sion of $119,600,000, which follows one >%f $27,100,000 in the preceding week and one of $90,000,000 in the opening week of August. This is 3328. 000, 000 increase „f loans, within three weeks, is wholly unprece- dented in the history of the bank. 80, indeed, is the total to which the loan account has risen. The £94,700,000 in this week a year ago and with a previous maximum of £65,- 200,000 reached in the last week of De- cember, 1902, when the artificial and temporary ‘window dressing’ by the London private banks in advance of their half-yearly statements had reached abnormal proportions.”’ “On the present occasion, fortunate- ly, the bank has been increasing its stock of gold with equal rapidity. This past week it has gained ag on top. of last week's gain of $29,900,000, thus making good the greater part of the $62,000,000 loss of gold in the fort- night ending Aug. S., during which the panic run on the bank occurred. “Out-of-town banks showed a dispo- sition to borrow less heavily here than they have lately done, and in certain es the New York balances of those institutions were equally increased. This was one of the indications of definite improvement, and although the move- ment to strengthen New York balances did not go far it was of great signifi- cane? in showing that the interior was not leaning nearly as heavily upon his market as it did a few davs ago. “What was more, the New York banks willingly made loans to various mercantile interests, and for the time since the present disturbance be- gan interior banks showed a disposition today to invest moderately in commbr- al paper.’ — . — 1 O11— la lots of **. 3 1 2 dar- re rels at Ne per gallon for 830 MONEY WANTED | 2 “deed Ae le Kh EA, of trust: MONEY W Box ecu Po FIRST DEEDS OF TRUST F sale; 1 ° CK $3200 $8800, $0060," e wil 3 7495 at 6 cent: with 1 titles. fire and tornado n RTE-R .

Interest rates are 6 to 7 per cent at present, and with the best names commanding the latter rate, it is no wonder that almost all of the loca banks and trust companies have marked up quotations excep on their more valued and regular clients. Quotations for long-term aceomm minimum of 6 per cent, while demand funds are not to be had even on choicest collateral at less than that fig- ure. Domestic excnange is fairly steady at the present time. 1 — MARRIAGE LICENSBS. Frank S. Straseer Leavenworth, Kan Edith 8.
