THE WORLDS LARGEST CITY

Prediction That Chicago VIII Soon
hss~ Eight Million People.
Springfield. Mass. Sept. 7.-Chica-
go will be the worlds largest city
will have = population Of nearly
5000. 900 within = very few years
This is the startling announcement Of
Elmer Corthell. a distinguished engi-
neer and scientist. Mr.. Corthell made
his notable prediction in his paper on
Growth Of Great Cities" read before
the Association for the Advancement
OF Science, now in session here. The
following is his estimate OF the popu.
lation Of the worlds greatest cities in
1920:
London. s.3+s, 900: Chicago. 1881.
600; New York. $685.. 500: Paris.
9. sos. 600; Berlin. 3.422.22i; Phila.
delphia. i.s3s. 100: ST. Petersburg.
l.s70.s33.
II was noticeable that the burden OF
Mr.. Cortheli's theorizinR for the fu-
ture status Of the great municipalities
rested largely on causes which had
contributed 70 the phenomenal increase
in Chicago in brief period. and
which had advanced il TO a position
where il was fast closing in on the
cirics Of the Old World whose accumu
lations Of inhabitants had been the
work Of centuries

SATOLLI'S ELEVATION.
sis Secretary Discusses the Reports
From Rome.

From Rosne.
Washington, Sept. 6.-Dr. Rocker.
secretary Of Monsiognore sxt0lli, Was
interviewed today in regard to the
latest reports concerning Monsignore
Satolli's elevation to cardinal. and that
he would be recalled to Rome. DR..
Rocker said:
1T il perfectly plain that II Mon
signore Satolli II created q cardinal
and recalled to Rome he would no
longer be the papal delegate to the
American church. So far ~ this lega-
ton il concerned. no intimation what
ever has been received here Of the in.
tention to create Monsignore Satolli .
cardinal II the pope Cherished any
such idea. we certainly have not been
made acquainted with it. The pope il
not in the habit Of prematurely an.
uouncing those whom he has deter.
mined to honor 30 highly. When be
calls consistory. which frsts meets
privately, he sends letters to those
whom he intends to make cardinals
three or four days before the consistory
meets.
"Supposing Monsignore satolli ii
created a cardinal at the next consis.
tory. and when it will take place nc
one can tell. he plainly could not &c,
to Rome in time to present himself be.
fore it and receive his hat Therefore
a special messenger would be sent to
this country with the beretta. Wher
the beretta will be conferred on him
+, he will not yet be equipped with al
the privileges Of a cardinal Thil
would only be conferred on him whel
he receives the hat. and this would no
be given him until the next consistor,
following the one at which he wa
created, because the hat must be con
ferred on each cardinal in person at /,
consistory. 1t will be seen. therefore
that MoDsignore Satolli. if created
cardinal at the next consistory, woul,
not enter on the full privileges unit
he received the hat at the following
consistory. OF course. il he were re
called to Rome. he would relinquisl
all authority in connection with tn
American church and devote himsel
to the duties that would be consigne
TO his care in Rome"

Ter. controller Of the treasury, today
rendered an opinion in the now cele.

however. decided that the papers in

tie Say. the Indians Are Not to Blame
for the Jackson's Hole Anair.
Washington, Sept s General Cop.
pinger, who had command of the re.

with Secretary Lamont, to which Com.
missioner Of Indian Affairs Browning
was invited:
II do not consider the Indians were
to blame for the Jackson's Hole sffair,"
said General Coppinger, at the Close Of
the conference. They are entirely
quiet now, and have been; in fact, they
would not say boo to a goose"
One question which the general
brought to the attention Of Secretary
Lamont and Commissioner Browning
was the ACCESSIBILITY Of annexing the
jackson Hole country to the Yellow.
stone National Park. He suggests tina,
this action would solvc the problem by
preventing all parties from hunting
and fishing in that section, and said a.
the country is not densely settled. hs
thought there would be comparatively
little difficulty in making the change
Commissioner Browning said that il
the first place it would be a matter
for Secretary Smith and then for con
gress, adding that he did not know
how the people Of Wyoming would re
gard it. as it would deprive that stat
Of territory.

clined to say whether he made any rec
