TACOMA CLIMBERS

TACOMA, WASH, July 30.-The first

than ever before. At times the steel
point of an alpenstock could not be
made to hold, so hard was the ice, and
the climbers were forced to leap from

H. C. Ainslie and Walter Rogers Of

an icy ravine, from which they escaped
with much difficulty.
H.. L. Pittock, president of the Maza-

respondent of the New York Freeman 8
Journal has cabled letter written by
Cardinal Jacobini and addressed to all
Catholic bishops throughout the world
proposing one of the most widespread
series of religious events probably ever

the close of the nineteenth cent? ! ana

The project is the result of the desire

WEssLING's WOES
An American Drafted Into the Ger
man Army

BERLIN, July 30-Ambassador White
Is giving close attention to a matter
which promises to involve some diplo-
matte complications. 1t is the case of
Alfred Wessling, son of naturalized
American citizen, Chas. Wessling of New
York. Young Wessling, while visiting
Germany last spring was drafted into
the German army. He protested and
proved that he had made formal heclar-
alton of intention to become citizen of
the United States, although his natural
ization had not been perfected. His pro-
test was absolutely ignored and he was
enrolled in the Forty-seventh Regiment,
Stationed in Hanover. Recently for a
petty offense, that of chatting, he was
struck violent blow by a sergeant En-
ragged at the injustice, young Wessling
felled his tormenter to the ground and
fled. Late at night he reached the United
States Consulate in the city of Hanover,
completely tagged out and half-starved.
United States Consul Crane persuaded
him to surrender to the authorities, and
he is now awaiting trial on charge of
assaulting his superior.
This offense is punishable in war times
by summary execution and in times of
peace by several years imprisonment.
Ambassador White is endeavoring to Sc
cure his release.

PREACHER BROWN
Asks That tho Overman Matter Be
Reopened

SAN FRANCISCO, July 3O.-Rev. c. o.
Brown, formerly of this city but now OF
Chicago, has appealed for a reopening OF
his case before the Bay Conference of the
Congregational Church.
DR.. Browns appeal came in a letter re-
ceived by Rev. G. b. Hatch of Berkeley
registrar of the Bay Conference. AS re-
suit the Conference will meet week from
Tuesday next at the First Congregational
Church in Oakland, and will not only
grant DR.. Browns request for a mutual
council, but will vote to ask the Chicago
association to join with it in another coun-
ell of the same kind, to submit the ques-
ton of congregational usage as to whether
one association can receive into member
ship a minister who is under suspension
by another body Of equal standing.
The Bay Conference has always been
anxious for settlement of the controversy
and the way now seems clear. DR.. Brown
by making the request has placed himself
on record as admitting the authority of the
Bay Conference in determining his case.
The impression prevails here among Con-
gregationalists that DR.. Brown has taken
such an attitude that the conference, and
it alone, will make the settlement. The
committee that will be appointed in re-
Spouse to DR.. Browns request will also
attend the mutual council asked by the
Bay Conference with the Chicago associa-
ton. 1t is figured from this point of view
that should the Brown council decide that
the late pastor of the First church of San
Francisco is in full standing in the Bay
Conference, the latter body will have
gained all that it has claimed and can a.
once proceed to try DR.. Brown on the issue
of the celebrated trial and to determine his
standing.
The committee from the Bay Conference
will insist at the second mutual council
as it has always contended that the action
of the Chicago association in the Brown
case was irregular. Should the council
decide in accordance with this view the
ex-pastor will be in precisely the same
position as when he left San Francisco I'M
der the ban of the Bay Conference.

On Canadian Loyalty to

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT PLAN
BEHIND THE TIMES AND SURE
TO FAIL
IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT PLAN
What the Colony Needs Is Preferen
tial Trade Agreement With the
Mother Country
Associated Press Special Wire.

Associated Press Special Wire.
LONDON, July 3O.-The Daily News
this morning publishes the report of an
interview with Sir Charles Topper, in
which the ex-Canadian premier said the
French Canadian loyalty to Great Brit
ain was largely due to the knowledge
that the annexation of Canada to the
United States would result in the aboli
ton of their privileges to laws, language
and religion under the Quebec act.
Dilating upon the benefit of fedora
ton, Sir Charles said he regarded Sir
Wilfred Laurier's plan for the formation
of a great imperial parliament as hope
lessly behind the times and impossible
of success, because such body must
include in its powers the right of taxa
ton for imperial purposes. Therefore
its membership must be framed some-
what on popula ton basis, which would
mean that in few years the people Of
these colonies would utterly swamp the
voice of England, who would never sub
NIT thereto.
Secondly, the colonies would never
submit to surrender of their autonomy,
nor would they hand over a large part
of their powers to a body thousands of
miles away.
"My idea" continued Sir Charles, 'is'
that framed by the Ottawa conference
and afterwards supported by Colonial
Secretary Chamberlain, of preferential
trade within the empire, Under 10
per cent duty on corn and meat Canada
would supply England with all she
needs. believe England would restore
the duty on corn, and that the operatives
would be the most ardent supporters of
the plan, seeing that thereby they would
enjoy to great extent the great colonial
market. 1 regard Sir Wilfred Laurier's
preferential tariff as an absurd scheme,
altogether misunderstood by the Eng
lish press and people. 1t is not prefer
entail to England over other lands, and
under the present treaties England can
not accept
1.-THE offer, now that 1t cannot be ac-
cepted, seems to me to be an insult
rather than a compliment.
1.-THE Canadian ministry's course in
declining to be bound by the Belgian
and German treaties is little less than
a declaration of independence. 1t has
been already proved that the colonies
are bound by those treaties. Had Sir
Wilfred Laurier offered England prefer
entail trade on reciprocal terms after
the denunciation of the treaties 1 believe
that England would have accepted. At
any rate Sir Wilfred would have kept his
pledges and gained great kudos.'
In conclusion Sir Charles Topper de-
clared that under low tariff Canada
nearly went into bankruptcy.
