DUKE AND DUCHESS
VISIT NIAGARA FALLS

Niagara on-t he-Lake, Ont, Oct. 13.-The
Duke and Duchess of York passed quiet
Sunday at the Queens Royal Hotel to-
day This morning some disappointment
was caused among the citizens here who
understood that their royal highnesses
would attend divine service. Instead of
this. however the duke and duchess at
tended a special church service held at
their hotel over which Rev. Canon Dali
ton, chaplain with the royal suite. pre-
sided.
After this service was concluded the
duke and duchess, accompanied by sew
eral members of the royal suite, were
driven to the pier, where they went
aboard the steamer Corona and proceeded
to Queenstown. At this point the royal
party boarded a special electric car of the
Niagara Falls Park and River Railway,
handsomely fitted up, and they were
taken up past the whirlpool rapids to
Niagara Falls.
The duke wore a black derby hat and
terested in the splendid scenery along the
line of the route. Much interest was
taken in the royal visitors by large
crowd of visitors, but the reception was
very quiet and there was no cheering.

of the suite, followed closely after the

returned to the Queens Royal Hotel,
where dinner was served. A quiet eve

NEXT C0NSIST0RY TO
BE HELD IN FEBRUARY

Washington, Oct. 13.-In well in
formed Catholic circles here it is be-
lieved that the next consistory of the
Catholic church at Rome will be held
in February, when Pope Leo XIII at
tains the 25th year of his pontificate.
While there have been no definite ad-
vices to this effect it is thought likely
that this assembly will open the jub-
lice to signalize the closing of the
quarter century of Pope LeG% regime
and that he will take advantage of it
to deliver an allocution, taking a
strong position on the question of as
sassination among other things.
Cardinal Martinelli will remain in
office here until about time for the con-
istory. No authoritative word has yet
reached here regarding the successor
ship. In view of his past experience, it
is quite likely that Cardinal Martinelli
will be assigned in Rome to the con-
gregations Of the holy Office, known as
1.-The inquisition,' which watches the
morals and discipline of the church,
and the propaganda, which deals with
the propagation of. the faith.
Cardinal Martinelli and two or three
of the newly created cardinals, as well
as possibly several cardinals and
bishops that may meantime be Great
ed, will receive the red hat at the pub
lie session of the coming consistory.

WORCESTER POLITICS
VIEWED FROM BOSTON

While a great majority of the Re
publican voters of Worcester are in
dulging in no little speculation as to
who will be the standard bearers of
the party in the coming mayoralty COM
paign, a Boston publication devoted to
matters Of political nature offers the
following field from which to choose:
Mai. John E. Lancaster, r. James Tat
man, Hon Alfred S. PinkertOn, Will
liam A. Lyle, w. Levi Bousquet,
Frank r. Batchelder, Burton W. Pot~
ter, A. NJ. Powell.
The same paper prints the following
as its idea of the possible candidacy of
Frank Roe Batchelder for mayor:
'Cristy is a bright. calculating man
with long head, who sees far into the
future, and one of the things he has
his eye on is the congressional seat
from the third Worcester, district for
Frank Roe Batchelder who is a sort
of political protege of Cristy's. Batch
elder is Cristy's first choice for mayor
atty candidate, because that would
bring him before the people, and be a
great help to him next year in getting
the congressional nomination which
with anything like unity among the
Republicans of the district, would be
about equivalent to an election.

ESTIMATES AGREE THAT
WHEAT CROP Is LARGE

Washington, Oct. 13-The department
of agriculture announces that the three
most important estimates of the
worlds wheat crop of 1901 so far made
agree that the crop is larger that that
Of either of the two preceding years.
The estimates follow;
Hungarian ministry of agriculture
2,671, $50, 900 bushels of so pounds Beer
bohm's corn list of London Eli ,60O,-
900 bushels of 60 pounds, and Bulletin
Des Halles of Paris, $780, 10000 Win
chester bushels.
Our department withholds its opin-
ion as to the degree in which the
worlds crop has been approximated in
any of these estimates until consid-
erably larger number of official re-
turns is available.
The official Hungarian estimate says
the crop exceeds last years by 209,-
SS1 900 bushels of 60 pounds, or by 212,-
430 600 Winchester bushels. According
to Beerbohm, the exeess over last years
crop is 200, 100000 bushels of so pounds,
and according to the Bulletin Des Hal
les the excess is 113, III, 900 Winchester
bushels. The principal increase is cred
tied to the United States, Canada and In
dia, though various other countries are
credited with larger crops than they
had in 1900

Macedonian Committee-SeV-
eraI Arrests Made

London, Oct. 13.-The Reuter- Tele-
graph Company has received the fol-
lowing dispatch from Constantinople,
dated Oct 10:
There have been no further devel-
opments in the case of Miss Ellen M.
Stone, the abducted American mis-
sionary.
1T is reported that Spencer Eddy
(secretary of the United States lega-
tion in Constantinople) received today
a dispatch from Washington advising
him that sum of money which should
suffice for the ransom would be forth
coming"
The text Of Reuters advices is am
biguous.
The Daily Telegraph has the follow
ing dispatch from Sofia, dated yester-
day:
United States Consul General
Dickinson has received no instructions
to pay the ransom. He is afraid a
dangerous precedent would be created
by payment. AS he is now fully con-
WINGED that the brigands were merely
instruments, acting under the instiga-
ton of late members of the Mace
DOMAIN committee, he has made strong
presentations to the Bulgarian govern
ment asking for the arrest Of these in
lstigators.
SHOULD this be denied, he says Miss
Stone would doubtless be released on
payment of a moderate indemnity and
assurance of freedom for her captors.
Some Macedonians have already been
arrested here"
