MAY APPEAL TO CIVIL COURTS.
Father TuOhy's Attorneys May Fight
PapaI Decree.

ST. LOUIS, February 4.-Father John G.
Tuohy, against whom a papal decree has
been rendered that he must vacate the pa
rOchial residence and retreat to a monas-
terry for ten days. will take his case further
into the civil courts if. in his opinion, the
discipline to be administered by Archbishop
Kane in accordance with the papal decree
proves to be too severe, said his attorneys,
Grover and Mcclellan. They declared that,
regardless of the position of Rome, Father
Tuohy's position was quite tenable.
The appeal is now pending in the court
of appeals of this city and the case has not
been dismissed. No action will be taken
until Father Tuohy knows the final attitude
of the archbishop of the see.

BROADENED HIS CLAIMS.
Aguinaido Asserts His Jurisdiction to
All the PhIIIppIne Grnup

Aspinaldo has broadened his claims, or,
Al least. his agent here. Agoncillo, has
cone so for him In another one of the Sc
res Of communications which he has ad-
dressed 10 the State Department, AguinaIdo
asserts his Jurisdiction TO all of the Philip
pine group. This is a notable extension. as
heretofore there was nothing to show that
he spoke for anything more than the Ia
gals, and even though there may have been
an tntimation that the Visayas. or central
group, was part OF the Philippine oonfed-
Grafton. this is certainly the first time that
any suggestion has been made touching the
Sulu Archipelago.
So far from being discounted by the cool
reception given to their various efforts at
recognitICn by the State Department there
are Indications that the Philippine iunta
here have become much bolder in their op-
erations, and IL is known that they are GER
t&:nly much freer in their correspondence
rot only with Aguinaldo and the juntas
outside of the United States but also with
syuspathizers here
