The Pope ON the Labor Problem.

LONDON, April 19.-The London Herald
prints report of an interview with the
Pope. In discussing the labor question his
holiness dwelt upon the necessity of i'm
proving the moral condition both of work
men and employers. He said he intended
to form committee in every diocese in the
world, whose duty it would be to call the
toilers together on every fast and
rest day and discuss their duties
and teach them and inspire them
with true morality. Sound rules of life,n
said the Pope, ''must be founded on relig-
ion" The committee which he proposes to
form is to consist Of workmen or those
sympatizing with workmen, and bishop
is to be at the head of each committee
Referring to the subject of European
disarmament he said that military life sur
rounds thousands of young men with vio-
lent and immoral influences and brushes and
degrades them; armies drain the countries
of wealth, withdraw labor from the soil,
overtax the poor, set the people against
each other, and intensity national jeal-
ousies. They are anti Christian. The

LOVERS GIFTS.
The Legal Obligation They Carry When an
Engagement is Broken.

EuSdSenlelU Is brOkeu.
Especial to THE HERALp-EXaminer Dispatch. /
NEW YORK, April 19.-Is the social obligation
of young woman to return young mans gifts
when she breaks the engagement, also legal
obligation? That in substance was the problem
placed before the judge Of the Fifth district of
the civil court yesterday, and half the east
side was there to help him solve it, il he
needed assistance.
David Lees expected to marry Sadie
Dichtenberg on the 18th of March at her home,
43 Divisions street. David and Sadie have got
many East Side friends and David offered to
bear share of the expense of big wedding.
He is d young man who believes in doing every
thing on strict business basis, so he took a re-
ceipt from Sadie's mother for SS5 which he paid,
but before the wedding day arrived somebody
went to Sadie with story that David at one
time had been an inmate of Wards Island in
sane asylum. The wedding was postponed and
David demanded the return of the SS5, which was
refused. He sued for it and the case was heard
yesterday. David told Judge GOldfogle his
story in answer to questions by his lawyer, ex-
Judge Laugbein. He produced Mrs. Dichten-
berg's receipt and also postal cardtwhich he
received from her March II, bearing the lacomc
message, THE wedding is postponed"
marry the girl, but She was not.
Mrs. Dichtenberg was called for the defense.
"You are married woman?" Amid the roar
which greeted the question Mr.. Saraschn tried
to explain to the court that he merely wished
tie establish a self evident fact Mrs. Dichten-
berg detailed what she had done with David's
SIS, good share of which she declared
she had paid for corned beef and red
cabbage preparatory to the wedding feast.
Mrs. Dichtenberg denied she had ever pro-
hibted the marriage and said that she was al
ways willing it should proceed.
Sadie was the next witness. She had post
poned the marriage six months that she might
get over a cold and grow strong again. After
she had postponed the wedding she began to
find ont David's ways and now, since he had
slandered her in the newspapers, she would not
marry him. Questioned as to what she maant
by find out his ways she said: Il was sick
two weeks and he never asked how / was" She
denied she was now engaged to anybody and
said she had had experience enough with one
man not to want another. The judge reserved
his decision.

Deferred.

OMAHA, Neb., April 19.-TSpecial tele-
gram to The HERALD. lin Burlington
circles speculation is rife on the question
OF successor to Second President
Stone, whose resignation takes effect June
1. That the coming man has been selected
by President Perkins seems to be generally
conceded, though which of the three
prominent in the line of promo
ton has been chosen is not
known, while all those interested and con-
nected with the corporation in this vicinity
feel that Mr.. George w. Holdridge, the
general manager of the Burlington & Mis-
souri, system, merits the promotion they
would regret to see him taken away from
Omaha However, G. w. B. Har-
ris, vice-president and general man
ager of the Chicago, Burlington
& Quincy Northern appears to
be first in favor if the promotion is made
according to the established rules. Though
Reply should step into the vacant place,
Holdridge would then succeed Reply, and
Reply and Harris would come here to take
the position now occupied by Holdridge at
the head of the band.
An effort is making to establish a line of
steamboats, from Omaha via the Missouri,
Mississippi and Ohio rivers to Pittsburg,
making Kansas City, st. Joseph, St.
Louis, Cairo and Cincinnati the
principal stopping points. 1t is thought
that such line of steamboats, would act as
check upon the railroads by conveying
freight at much lower rates than now
charged by the roads. Should the effort
now making prove successful, it would
materially lessen the freight rates to all
western cities.
