TO RECOVER HER CHILDREN.

Mrs. Slack Takes Legal Steps Here
Today.
Mrs Mary Kimball Slack. widow Of
VIM H. Slack, today filed here a pc
tition for a writ of habeas corpus for the
recovery Of the custody of her two children,
Mary Juliet Gerard and Catharine Addie
Slack. Chief Justice Bingham directed
that the writ ISSUE returnable before Judge
McComas at II o'clock tomorrow morning.
The writ is directed against Lewis and
Addie Slack Perrine. and was served upon
them at the Everett House, H street be-
tween 18th and 18th, where. it is under
stood, the children are. By order of the
court Mr. and Mrs. Perrine must produce
them in court tomorrow, when the case
comes up.
BY the terms of Mr.. Slack's will Mrs. Per-
rine, their aunt, was made the guardian OF
the children, and to her their fathers en-
tire estate was left in trust, until the chill
dren marry or reach the age of tWenty-one
years.
The children, until few days ago, were
at the home of the Perrines in New Jersey,
and there Mrs. Slack sought to recover
custody of then-by habeas corpus. Mrs
Perrine brought them here. and the New
Jersey court not only held her in con-
tempt for so doing, but also awarded the
custody of the children to their mother
Upon their arrival here the grandfather
of the children filed petition. praying that
all legal proceedings respecting their Gus
tody be stopped until after the contest over
the will of their father, filed by Mrs. Slack
be decided. The hearing in the injunction
case was set down for Tuesday next before
Judge Haener.

Not u Surprise Here.
While no formal announcement has been
received here as yet by Archbishop Sa-
TOLL to the effect that he has been raised
to be a cardinal, it has been known for
some time past that it was to be done, and
the action ofsthe cons:story at Rome today
was consequently not at all in the nature
of a surprise.
1t is expected that an emissary of the
POPE will leave Rome today. If he has not
already started, to bring the proper Gre
dentials to the new cardinal and to repre-
sent the pope at the ceremony OF comforting
the red hat and the beretta. This official
is a noble guard, Marquis Cacripant. 1t
is thought that he will not reach this city
much before the 10Th of next month. and
according to the present expectations the
ceremony will take place at the cathedral
In Baltimore on that day.
The Service In Baltimore.
Monsignor' Sbaretti said to a Star reporter
this afternoon that the program includes
magnificent service at the cathedral on or
about the date mentioned. though it may
have to be postponed. Marquis Sacripanti
will bring with him the formal documents
from the pope, and will, as his representa-
tive, deliver an address to the new cardinal
who will reply. and an address will be deliv-
cred by Cardinal Gibbons. Mgr. Satolli, as
papal ablegate will also participate in the
ceremony. on which occasion the pontifical
high mass will be celebrate
The elevation of Archbishop Satolli is
understood as meaning that he will be re-
called to Rome before very long. Until
such time he will be the pro-delegate. and
an archbishop will probably be selected to
succeed him at Washington. No intimation
has been received as yet from Rome as to
who the new incumbent of this office Is to
be.
1t is likely that the elevation of Arch
bishop Satoli will be made the occasion of
big celebration in this city. Although the
details have not been settled. 1t will prob
ably take place at st. Patrick's Church on
the evening Of the last day of the present
year., and will be in the nature of a special
thanksgiving service.

FOR HONEST ELECTIONS.
Maryland Politicians Discussing
New LAW.

New Law.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
BALTIMORE, Nd November ga num-
Ter of prominent republicans and members
of the Reform League are discussing plans
toward the formation Of a new election law.
and the laws governing elections in other
states are being studied. Every effort will
be made to obtain material from which
law as nearly perfect as possible may take
effect in Maryland. Those interested in
this plan are particularly anxious to stamp
out or reduce the excessive bribery which
characterizes elections held in certain parts
Of the state. and no effort will be spared to
Induce the legislature to pass measure
minimizing the use of money and promise
of political preferment. which had played
so large part in recent state and city
elections.
The question as to who shall succeed Mr.
Spencer c. Jones of Montgomery county as
state treasurer was discussed among poll
ticians today. and among those mentioned
as his successor were Mr.. Leon Sliger and
Mr. John X. Shaw of Shaw Brothers, both
of Baltimore. and the impression here IS
that the place will go to some republican
from the city. .'E-..

Tomorrow's Prospective Gold Exports

NEW YORK. November 29-The engage
ment of nearly two millions gold for export

effect on stock values this morning, bills
against the shipment having been sold
earlier in the week, and the outflow being a
matter of expectancy in consequence. A
slight tendency toward higher money rates
was noticed during the day. a circumstance
likely to reduce future exports of coin I'M
