Municipal Politics Said to Be Badly
Mixed on Religious Matters.
Charleston. S. c.. Sept. Municipal pol
tiles are getting complicated here, and the
opinion is that the American Protective
Association has had a good deal to do with
mixing up things.
Last night the city democratic execu-
tive committee met to lay down rules
for the primary election to come off next
month. Things went very smoothly till
member of the committee. who is sup
posed to be spokesman of the American
Protective association, moved an amend
ment coniining the votes at the primary to
those who are qualified to vote al reg
ular election.
Under the rules heretofore observed in
democratic primaries the only qualifica-
ton for voters was that their names must
be on one of the democratic club rolls
of the ward in which they vote The
amendment proposed, it is alleged, by the
American Protective Association, is that
the voter must also be qualified to vote
at the regular election. The amendment
was voted down, whereupon seven mem
bers of the committee. who are said to be
reformers vacated their seats and with

During the night. and while the execu-
tive committee was in session, a largely
attended meeting OF the American PTotec-
tive Association was held in Pythian hall.

based ON a case of lard stolen from
Brannon Bros. Bass lawyers present
an affidavit from j. w Miller acknowI-
edging that he stole the lard, and set
ting forth that Bass refused to buy it
from him, but that he sold it to j. w.
Miller, a countryman. The crate from
off the lard can was thrown into Bass
backyard and suspicion attached to him
on that account. johnson also makes
affidavit corroborating Johnson's confess
sion as to the stolen lard.
Bass lawyers intend TO push the case
to the limit, and appear to be working
on the theory that he was murdered by
detectives.

IN THE CASE OF BASS.

The Dead Mans Friends Still Probing

Atlanta, Ca, Sept S-New develop
opments in the form of afidavits tend
ing to further implicate the detectives in
the murder of 3. A Bass. were made to-
day. These afidavits are furnished by
Messrs. c. d. Camp, T. w. Rueker, C.
L. Pettigrew, attorneys for Bass, who
state that their client believed himself
to be the victim of a conspiracy of per-
secution by the detectives and intended TO
go to the grand jury and have them in
dicted, but his murder three days before
the grand jury met prevented him from
carrying out this purpose.
Bass was under Indictment in two cases
for receiving stolen goods, but from the
affidavits presented it appears that he
would surely have been cleared of the
charges, which fact strengthens the sus-
pioion of a conspiracy by the detectives to
saddle a crime upon him.
One of the affidavits is by D. A Shaw,
and states that Detective Conn threaten
ed to kill Bass & few days before he was
murdered. Conn is one of the men who
was working against Bass to prove that
he was in league with a gang of thieves.
Other afidavits are from Peter Will
Jams and Hal Harper, draymen, ana ii
legged that detectives offered to pay them
SIS each to swear that certain stolen
sugar had been hauled by them to Bass
store This sugar is the basis of one of
the indictments against Bass. The dray-
men, it is stated, refused 10 do as the
detectives wanted them to. Later on,
when Harper got in the ehaingang, De-
tective Conn offered to get him out if
he would testify against Bass about the
sugar.
Harper also describes an attempt made
by the detectives 10 frighten him. He
was taken to a dark room al the police
station, he says, and a skeleton in a
coffin suddenly introduced by the detec-
tives to scare him into an agreement
to testify against Bass. but he declared
that he knew nothing against him and so
refused.
The other indictment against Bass was

CAVE IN NEW YORK.
Peculiar Place of Abode Discovered
by an Inquisftive Policeman.

NEW YORK Jan. "A peculiar abode
for the metropolis of the country was dis
covered by policeman Legg.tt, of the West
Observation-Disclosures station, in a vacant lot
at Columbus avenue and Ninety-fftl street.
While patrolling his beat the officer noticed
smoke apparently rising from pile of
snow. Prompted a great deal by curiosity
he approached the place, and his curiosity
then turned into amazement. AS he began
to investigate the mystery there was slid
ing sound as if panel door was being
moved. and he heard voices coming from
the ground In a moment mans head
was showed through the opening and a voice
from the. head demanded OF Leggitt what
he wanted.

gazed in astonishment about him. He was

feet wide and six feet high. There was

COMBINE AGAINST MEXICO.
Central American states Working
Against Our NeighbOring Republic.

CITY OF MEXICO, Jan. 4.-The expected
arrival of ministers from Honduras and
Salvador and the possible nomination of
ministers from Nicaragua and Costa Rica
has put new light on the Guatemalan-
Mexican boundary negotiations. The evil
dent object is to support Guatemala and to
bring force to make Mexico back down from
its attitude. All appearances are that
Guatemala is making efforts to form a Gen.
trail American league against Mexico for
the settlement of old scores Guatemala's
minister is alleged to have telegraphed
after his official reception that the response
of Diaz was applauded. contrary to diplo-
matte precedent, that he used threatening
language and prejudiced question of high
Importance to all Central America. The
policy of the minister is evidently not
pleasing to his chief, for it is alleged that
Barios replied requesting that he pursue
a more conciliatory policy. The policy of
Mariscal and Diaz is noted as forebearing,
but unless the ENJOYS take a different tack
affairs may become SO strained that his
recall will follow.

next goes on to prove that It is no more
wrong to win money on running horse
than on a trotter, and adds:
There is nothing in the claim that racing
is more cruel and inhuman in the winter
than in the summer A running. horse can
go his gait with as little distress as a
jury to horse running in the winter as
one trotting In the summer. Race
horses, whether runners or trotters, are
well cared for. Their value insures this.
There has been a geat deal of foolish talk
about what Governor Matthews is going to
do, and about special legislation at the
hands of the coming Legislature. Attor-
ney-general Ketcham is also represented as
taxing his mental powers to devise some
scheme to abate this awful Roby pesti-
lence. 1t is safe to say that the worry ana
activity aScribed to these officials has been
exaggerated. Governor Matthews is great
and good man, and he can be relied on 10
do nothing unjust or foolish. Attorney
general Ketcham is too just and honorable
a man to be swerved in the interest of any
clique or class, and the Legislature can ne
relied upon to pass no laws calculated TO
favor class of pool sellers ana gamblers
at the expense of another.
Because the Governor made war 1n
prize fighting is no reason why he should
State. 1t is said that the Governor likes
a trotting horse better than a runner, but
from that the inference Is not TO be drawn
that because another man prefers a rum
ner the Governor Is going TO exercise his
official functions to compel him to follow
the trotters or nothing. Let US have an end
to this rot about the awful villainies OF
race courses and pool sellers. let it be made
llyT1n all aliko.''

POPE TO AMERICANS
FORECAST OF THE HOLY FATHERS
COMING ENCYCLICAL.
1t Will CIothe SatoIIi with Almost
Plcnnry Power, Thus Giving Cath
Olics Home Church Rule.

CHICAGO. Jan. "A special cablegram
to the Post from Rome says: The expect
ed encyclical from Pope Leo addressed to
the archb.shops and bishops of the United
States is now ready and will be transmitted
through the usual channels in few days.
1t treats principally with the authority
and powers of the apostolic delegate, Mgr
Satolli, who is confirmed and strengthened
in his position. The letter is certain to
cause profound sensation in ecclesiastical
circles in the United States similar to that
excited last year in France by Leo's
recommendation to the Catholic leaders of
that country, in which he urged them to
Loyalty accept the republic and no longer
waste their efforts and their forces by
standing aloof and striving for the i'm
possible, namely, the return and the
restoration of the royalists to power.
In the present important encycical Pope
Leo confirms the friendly disposition previ-
ously manifested toward republican form
Of government. demonstrating anew that
the church is free to accept and show sym
pathy with popular institutions not in
herently hostile to Christian principles In
detail the encyc,ical enlarges to the fullest
extent the, power and jurisdiction of the
apostolic delegate thus comforting on
Monsignor Satolli almost plenary authority.
All matters of Internal and local con-
troversy affecting the church in the United
States shall no longer be under the jurisdic-
ton of the courts of the Propag anda but
Will be heard and disposed of in the dele
gates tribunal. which becomes, in fact, an
American ecclesiastical court. This is a
further and most important recognition of
home rule in the church. and will go far to
Go away with the jealousy of Rome and
Roman influence which has hitherto pre-
vailed in certain quarters within and with
out the church. The encyclcal in langua ge
and spirit bieathes an ardent affection for
the people and. institutions of lne United
states, and is not sparing IN expressions
form and democratic spirit of our govern
ment.
FROM this forecast of the encyeiical il is
easy to see that it will be received with
unusual favor in the United States by ali
classes, adding a new and important testi-
mony TO the justly earned title of Leo
Nlll-'the Pope of the people," The en-
cyclcal concludes by expressing the warm
est confidence in and giving the fullest APP
prevail of the course OF Mgr. Satolli and
his liberal policies.

ROBY PEOPLE AT WORK
Anonymous Circular i'm Their Interest
Circulated Yesterday.

Somespf the members of the lower house
were handed a four-page anonymous cir
cular yesterday entitled Horse Racing and
Pool Selling AT the end there are the
words. Yours Truly. without a signature.
The circular is a defense of Roby written
to show that Roby is not as bad as it
is painted 1t suggests that much of the
dscred.t in which Roby is held is due
to the fact that the racing association
is confused with the Roby Athletic Asso-
citation, which was closed up by the Gov
ernor and the troops. Then the circular
tells something that is new to the Gov
ernor, saying, 1T (Roby) is a regularly
and properly organized association under
the laws of the county in which it is To-
Gated" When Governor Mathews sought
to ascertain the names of the members of
this association two detectives had to be
employed to learn them. After SAYING that
the track there is as good as the Indian
apoiis track and that the cost OF equipping
the place was 100000. the circular proceeds
as follows:
There will be no races there after Jan
/, for one or two years, ana the next races
will be in the summer time. Ii is just such
an institution as Hawthorn, when is To-
Gated about the same distance west of
Chicago that Roby IS east. o assert that
the patronage OF Roby is made up OF the
rougns and thugs of Chicago Is as absurd
IL is untrue. IT is safe to say that
there are more mlll.onaires in attendance
be found at any other track in Indiana
Then the circular goes on to refutc the
charge against the respectability OF the
women who attend the T.oby races com
pared to those VINO attend races a ether
tracks. 1t is declared that there is not
as much betting at Ro5y as at a half
dozen other tracks in Indiana. Thea the
CIRCULAR continues:
