THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE

Talking Loudly of Political Union In
Canada-The Loyalists Trying to Ridi-
cule the What Is Thought
of Mondays Meeting.
MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Nov 29.-[Special
There is considerable feeling in the city
over last nights meeting, at which the
political future of Canada was discussed.
The comparatively heavy vote polled in
favor of political union with the States,
nearly 1000 out of s, 900, was a surprise and
the advocates of political union are highly
pleased with the result The young French
Canadians who attended the meeting in
large numbers are In favor of national ln-
dependence and cast a majority OF votes IN
its favor, but the vote for political union
stood second, while there were only few
votes for the present system and Imperial
federation.
The Leyalists are very much incensed
and the papers attempt to ridlcule tine
meeting. An amusing incident, showing
the bitter feeling against the Unionlsts,
took place after the meeting. A large num-
Der OF students and members OF the city
militia corps marched in body to
Victoria Square, where a statue of Queen
Victoria stands Forming a circle around
the statue they raised their hands toward
the statue and sang, 'God Save the Queen.
There were threats made against the adro-
Gates of union, but fortunately good sense
finally prevailed.
La Patrie, the Liberal organ, which is
openly advocating Political Union with the
United States, tonight says:
The great voice of the people has spoken
1t has declared that we have mad su1ncient
of the colonial tie, and that Imperial Federc
alton could not rally even the tenth part OF
those who come with the idea of stopping
any demonstration in favor OF the enancl-
patton of the Canadian people. The defeat
of the Ultra Loyalists was overwhelming,
and the opinion that our popula.
tion was In serSitude an opinion
widely circulated by the partisans
OF perpetual dependence-has received its
coup de grace. The vote Tor lnde.
pendence does not frighten us. We would
prefer it to any other system II we thougnt
it practical, but we are convinced that II
would inevitably lead to annexation. Those
who voted for Independence will rally to
the cause of Political Union as soon as they
realize that the former is not practical.
The Loyalsts intend to get up counter
meeting at which Imperial Federation will
be advocated.

Princeton's Record.

PRINCETON. Nov. 9-[SpecidL. ]-Since
Princeton was downed by Pennsylvania
criticism has been unsparing and frequently
unjust. 1t is very hard to get q fair state
ment of Princeton's football standing since
the defeat by Pennsylvania. The Jersey
college holds q record which is second only
to Yale Since 's3 Princeton has made a
total of 4, ,466 points against opponents. Yale
is only a few hundred points in advance. 1t
comes with bad grace from an institution
which after fifteen years of work has only
added a single cubit to its football stature to
talk about being satisfied to enter into q
triple league with Princeton and Cornell.
In the last decade Princeton has scored 6s4
points against the Quakers. The ten years
have given them 81 points. The men who
are in position to know most about foot
ball affairs here say that no change will oc-
eur in the present football league during the
coming year. Yale will play Princeton In
New York on Thanksgiving Day. They say
= is possible that a Princeton Harvard game
may be arranged for early in November.

GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY

Manager Buckenberger is not max
ing much noise but he is working like
a Trojan in trying to get q few more
first-class ball players for the local club for
next season. He is inclined to think that
Abbey, the young man who was secured
from the Washington club to pitch here
next season, will not be here. This thought
is prompting Mr.. Buckenberger to secure
all the good pitchers he can so that he may
be able to get one or two frst-clsss men out
Of he lot Last evening the manager said:
, abbey notified us that he would have to
be paid some advanced money by US. We
told him that he could not get cent and
then he informed US that he would have to
start and teach school and that he would
not quit to come and play with us. He has,
suppose. commenced to teach and, there
fore may not come here. We do not mean to
nav out advance money and if Abbey will
not come without it he'll have to stay
awav.
"But 1 have Pitcher Gastright's name on
my list for next season. He is q big and
powerful man and great pitcher. Last
wear he was badly out of form but know
that he is all right again. He has pitched
for several seasons. Last spring he was
with the Washington club and was sick all
\the time he was with them. 1 think that
II pitching rules are changed Gastright will
be very effective pitcher. If the pitcher
is put back five feet it will need strong men
to pitch winning games.
81 am trying to get strong men. 1 am
confident that we will have better team
next season than we had this year. Our
PLAYERS will start out in better condition for
one thing. We will have some good pitch
ers and even if only get one really good
one out of the new men I'm after I'll be
satisfied"
1t is understood that Manager Bucken-
berger is trying for one or two more good
men. 1t will not be a surprise if a trade is
made whereby a very brilliant inielder will
be secured by the local team.

A REVOLT AGAINST A PRELATE.
st. Louis Priests Quarrel With Archbishop
Kenrick and Write to Leo.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 29-The interest in the Sc
lection of a coadjutor to Archbishop Ken
rick is growing intense. When Father
Brady went to the recent conference OF
Bishops at New York. he carried in his
pocket a letter signed by Archbishop Ken
rick, asking that Father Brady be recon-,
mended by the hierarchy of the United
States as coadjutor. Before action could be
taken, the petition of the st. Louis priests
asking for the appointment of Bishop
Spalding, Fitzgerald or Kahn, was read, and
the Archbi-hops decided to send 1t ana
Father Bradys letter of recommendation
back to Archbishop Kenrck, with a request
that he call at once q council OF his suffragan
Bishops to select a coadjuLor.
While the St. LOUIS priests are greatly in
censed at what they regard as scheme OF
the Archbishop to hoodwink them and ap-
point Father Brady coadjutor regardless OF
their wishes, they are now clamorlng for
the appointment by the Archbishop OF
irremoval rectors who shall have the
choice of the coadjutor instead of the suf-
fragan bishops. If the suffragans refnse to
sit at Council Board with the Archbishop,
he will be forced to call his priests together
and appoint irremovable rectors. So earn
est have the priests become that to-day they
sanctioned a letter, written in latin, to be
sent to the Pope. setting forth the status OF
the st. Louis diocese and the contention be-
tween the priests and Archblshops.

has received from Governor Fifer. OF Illi-
nois, a letter asking for the aid Of the Gov
ernment in finding a child which it is be-
ieyed has been carried into captivity by
the Ute Indians. The Governor says:
"On September 81 Earl Roy Morley, the f.
year-old son of Kirk G. Morley, strayed from
the camp of his parents and some friends
and has never been found. The camp from
which he strayed was at the head of a
stream called Rifle creek, about 30 miles
from Newcastle, in Colorado. Large num-
bers of people Immediately made thorough
and vigilant search for the missing child.
HIS tracks were discovered and traced for
about three miles. The most minute search
was made for further traces left by him
while living, or Tor traces OF his remains, il
dead, but nothing whatever was found. 1t
was discovered, however, during the search
that some Indians, believed to be Utes,
which had strayed from their reservation
had been camped near the place to which
this boy was traced"
Secretary Noble and the Commissioner of
Indian Affairs have notified all agents in the
West and Northwest to use every effort in
their power to ascertain If any of the Utes
or other Indians that can be reached have
taken this child, or if anything is known OF
his fate.
