Special TO THE MORNING CALL.

COLUMBUS, June S.-The Duke of Vera
qua arrived this morning as a guest of the
city. the largest in the world named after
his ancestor. The hotels being crowded
by politicians. the ducal party was enter
tanned at the residence of II. Z. Chitten-
den, to which they were escorted by the
Mayor. the citizens committee and de-
tachment Of militia. This afternoon the
ducal party reviewed parade of $4,000
school children. The Duke was welcomed
and presented the keys of the city. To-
morrow military and civic societies will
parade.
A sensational event marked the close of
the school-children's parade to-day in
honor of the Duke de Veragua. The
Dukes brother. the Marquis Barbados, was
stricken with angina pectoris and fell
PROSTATE on the grand stand. He suffered
frightful agony and the attack seemed
likely to result fatally, owing TO the terri
bic jam of the spectators and the inability
OF the authorities to force back the pesple
to give the n0bleman air, and Bishop Wat
ters0n stood ready to administer the last
sacrament.
The sick man was taken to a hospital
near by and hypodermic injections ad-
ministered without effect He filally be-
came violent and several men were 1e-
quired to hold him. A battery which the
MARQUIS had with him was applied several
times and the patient was soon in condl-
tion to be removed. Two physicians re-
manned with him several hours and he re-
covered rapidly. though he will not be
able to participate in the remaining exer-
ciseS.
The attack was probably brought on by
the excitement of the day, the cheering
and the tumult in the convention which
nominated Mckinley, and the remarkable
sight of a procession OF school children
which was miles in length.

WORDS FROM THE POPE.
There Will Be a Sensation on the
School Question.

ROME, June S.-The publication of a
paDal document relating to the American
scholastic question Is understood to be
imminent and has already given rise to
much unduly heated talk in Rome.
Monsignor Ireland's opponents seem
confident that the document will not de.
light the stalwart Archbishop, while on
the other hand his friends appear con-
vinced that it will not, as has been stated
and denied with equal vigor, In any way
affect the general issue.
One need not have read the message TO
be sure that it will retract nothing and
modify nothing broadly that has been laid
down by Rome through the papal dele
gate, but this does not exclude the pussi-
bility that an explanation of the views
embodied in the communications to the
American episcopacy may be of a nature
to disturb some irresponsible commeuta-
tors and Interpreters.
A very careful study of the document
will be adyisa BILE before the friends or foes
of Monsignor Ireland set up shout
of victory. 1t will also be pru-
dent to remember that the battles
which ragged round Archbishop Sa-

conflicting readings of the words, .'toler-

WASHINGTON, June 8.-Tne question of
the reorganization OF boards of pension
examining surgeons throughout the coun-
try Is just now under consideration by
Secretary HOke Smith, Commissioner
Lochren and DEPUTY Commissioner Muir
ply. There are 1860 OF these boards, each
containing three members, and their work
is very important factor in the admins
tration OF the pension laws and the adjudi-
cation of claims. The officials of the de-
partment state that careful examinations
have revealed incompetence and gross
carelessness in the work of some of these
boards, and in some instances the evil
dence indicates that improper influences
have been successfully applied to secure
reports on pension claims favorable to an.
plicapts.
In view of these facts it has been decided
tn give this branch of the service general
oyerhauling. and while no formal plan of
reorganization has been announced, it is
stated to be the purpose of Commissioner
LochTen, with the approval of the Secre-
tary, to appoint on these boards only men
who stand in the very front rank of the
profession in their respective localities,
and men who keep we'll abreast Of the

WASHINGTON. June S.-During the first

fourth-class Postmasters appointed was
6537, of which 1872 were to fill vacancies
caused by designations and death and 1865
by removals. During the corresponding
period of Harrison's administration the
total number appointed was $685. or 1886
more than were appointed during the last
three months. OF these 1863 were to fill
vacancies caused by designations and
death, and 5567 by removals. The number
of appointments made on designations was
therefore 2013 greater during the first quar-
ter of the present administration than dur

movals was 1902 less during Cleveland's
