ing the book of Christian truth, and in
the other the Constitution of the United
States," said Papal delegate Satolli,
Wrapping the purple robes of his office
about him and speaking with burning
intensity of feeling that surprised the
great multitude gathered in the Catholic
congress. The scene was dramatic in
the extreme. The personal representa-
tive of the Roman Pontiff to the United
States was literally shaking under the
stress OF excitement of the occasion,
which was his first public appearance at
a national gathering since his appoint
ment to Office, and by many regarded as
his installation into office.
All this occurred after the congress was
called to order by the presiding officer,
Judge NJ. J. o. Brien of New York, who
delivered the address of welcome. Mean
time the Papal delegate sat on a lofty
throne like the chair said to have been
brought to America by Columbus. The
Papal delegate spoke in italian, which
was afterward translated by Archbishop
Ireland.
Satolli said the first great Catholic Con-
gress, the ideal and model for this and
every such gathering, was when Christ,
surrounded by the children of Israel, de-
nvered the great sermon on the Mount,
the burden of which was: "Seek first the
kingdom OF God and His righteousness,
and all other things shall be added unto
you" The delegate said here in America
was the key to the future, and the Pope
charged him to speak words of hope and
blessing and the words quoted above.
The other addresses were by Bishop
Matterson of Columbus, o., cousin OF
Hon. Henry Watterson of Louisville,
and number of laymen.

LONDON, Sept. 5.-Reports of renewed
disorder among striking coal miners
were received to-day. A thousand min
ers gathered this afternoon near Chester
field and then marched in mass to the
Oak Thorpe colliery, gathering in num-
bers and boldness at every step. The
mob supplied itself with stakes from
trucks they had overturned and marched
to the Shirland colliery, where they COM
mitted fresh disturbances. The police
were unable to cope with the crowds and
now troops are en- route from Sheffield.
Similar disturbances occurred to-day at
other places.
Reports this evening show additional
and serious demonstrations being made
by striking coal miners. At Chesterfield
and Derbyshire the disorders were
particularly violent, and troop of the
Dragon Guards and company of Irish
tuslleers were sent there to help restore
peace. When the fusieers arrived at
Chesterfield they found that the mob of
riotous miners had possession Of the col
liery premises. The rioters were dis
persed. The people in the town are in a
state of panic over the actions OF the
strikers. The troops will remain to pre-
vent further disorder.
Serious riots occurred tonight in York
shire. Several colliery buildings were
sacked and burned. Troops were called
to disperse the rioters and to guard the
mine property. A miners riot also oc-

In the afternoon the Executive Com
mittee reported. 1t recommends, among
other things, the appointment of a Sun
day-school worker for Japan; also work
ers for countries Of Southeast Europe,
which cannot be reached by English
workers purely because of the antago-
nlSms OF nationality. Further, in order
to reach a Well-defned basis tor future
action, the committee recommends plan
to arouse enthusiasm by conventions and
institutes in Sunday-school work in all
lands, and to promote acquaintance and
fellowship among workers engaged in
the field.

appointment of an Executive Committee
on Sunday-school work throughout the
world, to consist of Chairman, Vice
Chairman and four members from the
United States, one from Canada, five
from the United Kingdom, and one or
more from other countries cooperating,

system, approved the home-class depart
ment, denounced the liquor traffic and
recommended the holding of the next

REVOLVING MURDER.
An Aged Lady Beaten to Death and
Robbed at Seattle.

An Aged Lady Beaten to Death and
Robbed at Seattle.
SEATTLE, Sept. ga revolving murder
was committed here last night for the
purpose of robbery, but the discovery of
hour this morning.
Charlotte Fetting, a German woman,
so years old, was the victim. She lived
alone with her son, and as she was of a
thrifty disposition it was believed she
had large sum of money stored away in
her dwelling. Her son left home last
night to witness theatrical performance
and did not return until z o'clock this
morning. When he entered the house he
was horritied by the CHASTITY spectacle
that met his gaze. His mother was lying
on the floor OF her bedroom, in her night
dress, the garment being saturated with
blood. The son upon making an inVes-
tigation found that the unfortunate
woman's head had been beaten to Jelly,
probably by some blunt instrument
The case was Immediately reported to
the police and detectives are working
earnestly to secure some trace of the muir
derers, but thus far have not met with
success.
The theft of S79O in gold disclosed the
motive of the crime. 1t is believed that
the murder was committed by two men
who witnessed the departure OF young
Fetting and followed him to the theater.
Knowing that he would be out of the
way for some time they went back to the
house and knocked for admission. 1t is
thought that Mrs. Fetting, thinking her
son was without, opened the door and
that she was Immediately seized and a
cloth thrown over her head to prevent an
outcry. The robbers then probably made
demand for her savings and upon being
met with a refusal beat her to death.
