REASON FOR PORTUGALS DELAY.
| HER MINISTER SAYS CABINET COUNCIL HAD
TO Re cALLED-NEws FROM CAPE vERD.
Washington April 2S-Viscount de Santo-
Thyrso the Portuguese Minister called at the
State Department this noon and had CONFER
ences with Acting Secretary Moore and Assist
ant Secretary Adee Great interest attached to
the visit. owing to the delay In the issuance OF
Portugars neutrality decree and the feeling that
this delay to some extent favored Spain in al
lowing her fleet at Cape Verd Islands to re-
main there.
The Minister'S call was not for the purpose OF
giving notice OF Portugals neutrality. or any
step In that direction as he said bis Govern
men: had not yet communicated with him on the
subject At the same time the Minister took
occasion to express his strong personal convlc-
ton that Portugal would maintain the strictest
neutrality between the United States and spain
He pointed out that in a matter OF this I'M
portance there had not been sufficient time for
official action. War he said. was not declared

10Th. and the official notifications. considering
the difference in time. could not have reached
Lisbon until the Goth. a Cabinet Council then
had to be summoned. and although not officially
advised from Lisbon. he felt confident that he
would receive official Information very soon
possibly late to-day
As to the reports from London that the United
States had sent a threatening notification to
Portugal that she would be regarded as an ally
OF Spain unless the Spanish fleet was ordered
from the Cape Verd Islands no confirmation
could be secured from State Department Of
hclals or from the Portuguese Minister. on the
contrary these reports were dismissed as highly
Improbable The authorities here were gratihed
at the Minister'S expression OF confident BELIEF
that Portugars neutrality would soon be COM
municated and this served to allay the growing
feeling OF irritation over the delay.
When the Minister'S attention was called to
dispatches announcing that no reports would be
allowed to leave Cape Verd concerning the
movement Of the Spanish ships he said this. OK
course did not apply TO official Information
transmitted by United States officials at Cape
Verd and elsewhere to the United states Gov

love affair of Marion Wolton, the
daughter of n supposedly wealthy New
Yorker, and Edward Fletcher The
former Is a rather serious young wo.
man, who devotes herself to severe
duties in life, even though she is very
fond of the gay world of society. The
latter is rich and handsome, but GER

the subject of somewhat extensive I'M

This very gossip in regard to his past

STRANGE USE FOR BIBLES.

Gold Leaf Packed in Them The Holy
Writ C. hs!drred Guarantee.
1t seems that gold leaf for decora>
tive purposes is. as q regular matter
of business, packed IN little books
made up of the unbound pages OF Holy
Writ cut to the requisite size for the
urr0Se. aud sit he. te,u cr. 1he
practice of packing the material in
this way is a well-cstabishcd one. and
the Bible Is selected for this purpose
because as n rue, the type is more
evenly set, and the printing generally
finer and better executed. On the
other hand. the use of the Bible is
looked upon as Il sort of guarantee
that the leaf is 9f the best possible
quality. 1t appears that tie Book Of
Comon Prayer is also employed for
the same purpose. Gold-lcaf books
are made up and supplied to the trade
by an entcrprising firm in BirminS-
ham. An cnt"rpr!sing gentleman in
London also supplied them. 1t is evi-
dent that the books are made up from
the sheets in which they leave the
press, and before they are folded.

Timothy searched in vain. and the coat

took his knife, opened n corner of the
