POPULIST POW-WOW.
Susquehanna County Peoples Party
Holds Convention at
Montrose.
Special to tho Scranton Tribune.

MoNTRosE, Pa. Aug. 81. - About
seventy-ive Populists attended the Sus-
quehanna county Peoples party con-
vention in the court house here Ysstsr-
day and nominated senatorial, congress
sional. representative and county
candidates. The attendance was pur-
suant to call upon all voters interested
in the party's principles and In point Of
numbers was vastly different from q
like gathering last year when less than
score OF delegates were present.
The following nominations were
made: For congress, E. A. Weston,
Brooklyn; for state senator, James
Lonergan. Silver Lake; for representa-
tive. Aaron Stockholm Franklin Forks.
and Sidney Masters. Susquehanna for
prothonotary, E. w. Watson. Now
Milford; for coroner, DR.. G. D. Decker.
Montrooe; for jury commissioner, vii.
liam j. Heavey. Silver Lake. The leg
isiative nominees were empowered to
select their own conferrees.
Susquehanns county ia considered
one OF the most favorable sections in
the state for the Peoples party move
ment and the candidacy Of Sidney
Masters, Of Susquehanna, is expected
to draw upon the Republican and DEM
ocratic vote from the fact that he Ia a
leader In several labor organi cations.
The convention adopted resolutions
declaring fealty to the national plat.
form. citing the $40 per capita plank
OF the Republican state platform as a
happy omen. attributing present fin
ances to psrfdious legislation, clubbing
the wealthy as "ths real anarchists who
should be crushed" condemning the
Republican partisan" administration
OF county offices, ridiculing the recent
Republican county convention and IA
voring a reduction in official salaries to
lessen tho current money depression.
d. A. Weston, Brooklyn, chairman;
h. w. Watson, New Milford, seere-
tary; S. j. Northrop, Montrose; W. G.
Deakin. Susqushanna. and G. D. Nash,

committee for the ensuing year.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
The Financial Situation as Viewed by
r. G. Dun & Co.

New YORK, Aug. 31.-R. G. Dun &
Co. Is Weekly Review Of Trade tomor-
row will say:
The activity which came with ex.
haustsd stocks and the pressure Of de-
layed fall demands, and was increased
by the removal Of uncertainty about
the tariff, has continued with heavy
entries of foreign goods since the bill
became law. But the people who
know best are saying. Improvement
will come" rather than Improvement
has come" The gain is not yet what
has been expected. and business, II
good In comparison with last year,
10 still poor In comparison
with years preceding. Presumably
there has not been time to feel the fall
effects of the change, and q gradual
gain will be moro healthy and encour-
aging than q spasmodic one. but tho
expansion OF commercial loans has sud.
denly ceased, prices Of man anufaetured
products show weakness rather than
strength, and there has been a reaction
in the stock market, prices Of railway
stocks averaging 80 cents and trust
stocks Eli per share lower than week
ago.
August has ended, but the interior
demand for money still balances the
receipts Of superhuous currency from
eastern cities, although crops are
moving quite freely. The recent
material increase In demand for
commercial loans appear to have
been due to payments for sugar
imports, for whiskey taken out Of bond
and for imported goods taken out OF
custom houses, and has dropped off
sharply. The unavoidable concl usion
Is that the desired increase In domestic
distribution has not yet reached such
proportions as to influence the loan
market.
Imports will be large. 1t is clear, but
for the past month have been per
cont. less than year ago. and mean
while exports Of domestic products
from New York for the month have
been $2,619,597, or 8 per cent. smaller
than last year. The dsmaud for pro-
duets Of iron and steel has increased.

Tuesday, Sept 4
st. Ceciia's academy will reopen next
Tuesday, Sept. 4. From the applications
already in, there is evidence of an increased

dents will number from forty to fifty,

Some minor improvements have been
made about the academy building and
there will be increased facilities for in

OF csc, 900. and be finished in three
years. or in two for an extra $50. 900,
the question is entering the stage in
which the governments concerned have
to decide the part they mean to take.
The question, moreover. 10 not purely
a financial one. The main considsra-
tion being public utility. the nation
which lays the first cable and estab-
fishes the first steamship lines may ex-

simply obeying the dictates Of self in

that the person or persons who COM

Some think that Frank Storms, the

the cars were rolling over the ties. In
few seconds the cars toppled over the
embankment into the sand fifteen feet

that threw us of the track. The en-

SATOLLI TO REMAIN.
Reports That the Apostolic Delegate
Will Be Recalled to Rome
Are Unfounded.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 81 Statements
have been published from time to time
in the United States and abroad In re
lation to the establishment in this
country of a permanent legation rep
resenting the Church OF Rome in mat
tsrs ecclssiastic, but official con6rma.
tion OF them mp to this time has
never been obtained. Some days ago
Pope Leo notified Archbishop Satolli,
the apostolic delegate here. that it was
deemed best for the interests Of the
church that an ambassador OF the holy
father should permanently reside In
the United States, and Mgr. Satolli was
given to understand that he would he
kept as resident apostolic delegate. Up
to the present time no information to
the contrary has been sent to him from
the Vatican.
A reporter for the United Press called
ut the legation today to inquire con-
cerning the report from Rome that at
the end Of this year Mgr. SatolIi would
return to the Vatican at the request Of
the pope. After a short consultation
with Mgr. Sitolli. DR.. Papi. his score.
tary, made the statement that the dele
gate had not yet been advised by the
pope as to the matter. and In view Of
that fact did not believe the report was
true. Said DR.. Papi:
whether Mgr Sstolli be recalled or
not. some one will be maintained here
in the Office he occupies. There is now
a permanent legation which represents
Pope Leo in church affairs. the same
as the ambassy of Italy here represents
the political government in diplomatic
matters"
After making this important declara-
tion DR.. Papi refused to discuss the
matter further.
In view of the satisfactory manner
in which the differences In the Catho-
lio church In this country have been
settled by Mgr. Satolli, and of the good
feeling that generally prevails within
the church it is the opinion here that
Mgr. Satolli will not be recalled.
