icent spectacle in st. Peters today on
the occasion of the canonizing of Jean
Baptiste de La Sale. the founder of the
order of the Christian Brothers and
Rita Di Cascia, a nun of the Augustin-
ian Order.
The interior of the vast basilica was
Illuminated and adorned with magnif-
icent hangings and the building was
filled with great concourse of people.
including all the pontifical dignitarieS
diplomats and the Roman nobility. OF
foreign pilgrims. Italian troops kept
order in the square in front of st. Pc
ters, while the pontifical body guard
was stationed within the. cathedral.
Pope Leo attired in his state robes
was borne on the Se1ia gestatoria at
the head of an imposing procession
composed Of the entire papal court, 500
patriarchs. archbishops. bishops and
four cardinals. A roar of cheering rose
from the multitude on the Pope's ap-

tatoria, took his seat on the pontiflcal

National Bazaar opened.

London, May 24.-The Princess of
Wales, at Kensington this afternoon
opened the great national bazaar in aid
Of the sufferers from the war. The mag
nitude of the present undertaking which
lasts three days, quite eclipses the sim
liar affair held in June of last year in
aid of Charing Cross hospital Although
much space in the Palace hotel has been
given up to the bazaar the enterprise
has attained such huge proportions that
Dolgorouki and the Duchess of Suther-
land and Marlborough escorted the
Princess of Wales through the bazaar.
The receipts have already exceeded
$50 900.

HEADED FOR EUROPE.
A Number of q. S. Warships
Win Journey That Way.

New York, May PA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Secretary Long says the cruiser AL
bany would cruise in the Mediterranean.
NO orders have been given to the vessel,
the secretary says, to proceed to Turk
ish waters. though no objection would
be made if her commanding officer
should proceed in her to a Turkish port.
The auxiliary cruiser Buffalo. with a
crew OF landsmen aboard. is now on
her way to European waters and the
Essex win also visit European ports,
remaining abroad until September. The
itinerary of the Lancaster contempIates
that she shall go to Europe and remain
until October. 1t is stated that the dis
patch of these vessels has nothing to do
with naval demonstration to compel
turkey to pay the missionary claims.

A NEW ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Charter of the Organization Filed at
Albany, N. Y.

New York, May PA charter has
been issued at Albany, N. Y, to the
following named gentlemen as incor-
porators of a news gathering organiza-
ton to be called the Associated Press.
Stephen O'Meara, of the Boston Jour
nal; Adolph S. Ochs, of the New York
Times; st. Clair McKelway, of the
Brooklyn Eagle; William L. Mclean, of
the Philadelphia Bulletin; Frank r.
Noyes, of the Washington Star, and ~
H. Belo, of the Galveston Daily News
and Dallas Daily News.
The membership of the corporation is
to consist of and to be limited to the
proprietors of newspapers. 1t is to lie
make no profits and to declare no divi-
dends. It is not to sell news but is to
collect for, and to distribute to its mem
bers only. It's operations and member
ship will cover the entire country.
One of the incorporators said:
THE decision of the supreme court Of
Illinois has swept away a number of the
fundamental principles of the associa-
ton with which we have been connect
ed and has made it impossible for that
needs or fulfill the desires of its mem
bers. We have looked about for some
plan and in full accord of practically all
our associates, have concluded to or
ganize a new Associated Press under
the laws of New York. We have in
mind simply to carry into this new cor
poration all Of the principles that gave
character to the old one, to make no
change whatever in the fundamental
theories and to preserve intact all thc
rights of individual members and in
general to find a more congenial donai-
cile than Illinois afforded. The men
engaged in the work of incorporation
are simply acting as trustees for their
associates until the plan can be so far
perfected as. to turn it over to a fully
qualified membership"

BRISTOW'S WORK.
Director General of Posts in
Cuba Begins Task
Of Strengthening the Tangled
Affairs of the Island.
vi ORE DISCOVERIES.
Neely Had a Scheme For Secur-
ing the Isle of Pines.
Interested With Him.
MORE DISCOVERIES.

New York, May 24.-A special to the
Herald from Havana says:
One ef CharlessF. w. Nee1y's most
important schemes was the contem-
plated purchase of the Isle of Pines,
south of Cuba, which is considered by
many to be a part of the United States
territory according to the treaty of
Paris. Nicely started a company here
last fall for the purpose of obtaining
control of a valuable part Of the island
with the object of colOnizing it as a
United States possession.
Interested with him were Major Ladd,
treasurer of the island of Cuba; Bri-
gadier General Chaffee, Major Ducker.
Mr.. Hake OF Chicago, and it is said
many prominent politicians in the Unit
ed States.
Options were obtained on 10000 acres
of land and agents were engaged to
make the negotiations for the majority
of the remaining 1000 acres.
Neely's arrest has killed the scheme
and the options expired last week and
$4,000 was forfeited.
Governor General Wood has placed
two inspectors in Major Ladd's office
for the examination of the treasurer's
accounts.
Director General of Posts Bristow ap-
pointed George r. Buchanan as dis
bursting officer for the department at a.
salary of $1,000, and discontinued the
Carter, whose salary was 81, 500 a year
Disbursements will be made the same
as in the military system.
Only $44 in postage stamps have been
found in the office here. There is no
trace of Neely's ledger. 1t was prob
ably destroyed.
The inspectors discovered a shortage
in Neely's accounts outside of the
amount supposed to have been taken
in stamps but probably it will not raise
the estimated defalcation of $100, 900.
Evidence is accommodating against
Neely. There will probably be several
counts against him if he is brought
back for trial.
MORE ACTION AGAINST NEELT.
New York, May 24-Edward K. Jones,
the special representative of Attorney
General Griggs in the prosecution of the
Neely case today had a talk with Judge
Lacombe about the Cuban postal scan
dal. Mr.. Jones said that the papers
which We're said to have left Washing
ton yesterday had not reached him yet,
but they are expected this afternoon.
Mr.. Jones said that as soon as the doc
umentary proof procured by the war
department concerning the issue of
stamps which were ordered destroyed
comes into his possession, additional ac-
tion will be taken against Neely.
District Attorney Henry L. Burnett
and his assistant, Ernest c. Baldwin
will appear before Governor Roosevelt
at oyster Bay in support of the appli-
moval to Cuba. If the reQuisition in the
Neely case is refused by Governor
Roosevelt, Assistant District Attorney
Baldwin believes that under the federal
statutes Neely can be tried in this dis
trict.

BOER ENJOYS PLANS.
Will Start at Once on Tour of the
Country.

Washington, May 24.-The plan Of
campaign of the BOer peace commits
siorers has not yet been fully outlined.
They probably will remain in Washing
ton until next Tuesday after which they
will begin a tour of the west as has been
previously intimated. Mr.. Fischer is
now busy outlining this itinerary but
said today that it was too early to give
any definite details of the plan. Mr..
Vessels, one Of the members who speaks
good English, probably will go to
Bridgeport on Saturday night with
Representative Lentz of Ohio to address
pro Boer meeting there.
The delegates have not yet decided
whether or not they will issue an Off
ciaI statement before leaving Wash
ington. They feel that under the cir
cumstances this would be a delicate
undertaking and no matter how care
fully it was worded would be liable to
misconstruction. Therefore it is quite
probable that their statements will be
confined to whatever addresses they
make at the pro Boer meetings which
are being arranged for their coming
tour of the country.
