ARCHBISHOP OF ST. PAUL AD-
DRESSES CATHOLIC TOTAL ABB
STINENCE UNION
IN CONVENTION AT HARTFORD
Eloquent PreIate DIscOurses of the
Vast Good Accomplished for the
Cause of Temperance
by the Order

HARTFORD Conn, Aug. Especial
religious services in the morning, a busi-
ness meeting in the afternoon with en-
couraging reports from officers and an
immense gathering at Parsons theater
and an address by Archbishop Ireland. of
st. Paul constituted today's proceedings
of the Catholic Total Abstinence Unon
of America, now in session here.
Today opened inauspiciously, for drlz-
zling rain prevented a large attendance
at the early service at st. Josephs Cath
edral. In the afternoon the business
meeting was held, at which the officials
made their annual reports Rev. Andrew
McGllicuddy, of Worcester president Of
the union, presided, and after his report
reports of vice presidents were made.
The report of the secretary, Rev A r.
Doyle, of New York, furnished interest
ing information on the condition of the
society. 1t was shown that it's member
ship numbers S5, All in branch organiza-
tions, and that the increase for the past
year has been 4,110 members and 81 new
societies. The audience at Parsons thea
ter packed the auditorium.
WORK OF THE UNION.
Father Conner presided, and aft
er addresses by Rev. McGilicuddy
and Mrs. Leonora Lake, of st. Louis,
a vice president of the union, Archbishop
Ireland, of st. Paul, was introduced.
Archbishop Ireland recounted the events
at the founding of the union at Wash
ington thirty-five years ago, and traced
it's growth through the early years down
to the present time. In speaking Of the
work he said that in the years past the
criticism had Justly been made that the
proportion of drinkers among Cathoncs
was greater than among persons Of other
religions, but now such a statement
would be untrue, the change being due
to the Catholic Total Abstinence union
and other similar organizations in the
church.
The speaker did not, however, fail to
pay tribute to temperance societies in
churches of other denominations. In
closing, Archbisop Ireland made an elo-
quent plea for temperance among the
men of the twentieth century, in view of
the demands Of the age for clear-headed
and active men.

TRUST IN WINDOW GLASS
PLANNED TO CONTROL THE OUT
PUT or THE WORLD.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Aug THE Times
will say tomorrow: "Another vast indus
trial combination, one Of the greatest
that has ever been planned, IS evidently
under way. Two prominent Pittsburg-
ers are taking a leading part in the con-
summation Of a project that has for it's
object the placing in the power of one
corporation the control of the world s
supply Of window glass
p The proposed combination is to take in
all of the window glass manufacturers
of the world. In effect, the business viii
be conducted from Pittsburg, and the
nucleus of the organization will be the
American Window Glass company, of this
city This company practically controls
the window glass business Of the United
States, and the only factories In Europe
that amount to anything are located in
Belgium. A combination of these Bel
gium factories IS now under way. and as
one of the men accredited with the move
ment is one Of Plttsburg's leading fnan-
ciers, who has participated in similar
undertakings, 1t is safe to say that the
present deal will be consummated. The
Pittsburgers who are consummatlng the
deal are President Chambers and Vice
President Mullins, Of the American Win
dow Glass company. They left this city
for Europe about ten days ago.

CHICAGO'S BRIEF VENTURE IN THE
SEAPORT BUSINESS HAS COME
TO AN END
INSURANCE RATES TOO HIGH
Management of the Northwestern
Steamship Company Decides to
Stick to the Great Lakes
Hereafter.

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.-Ruinous discrimina-
ton in Insurance rates according to Off
cials of the Northwestern Steamship
company has decided them to withdraw
their ships from the Transatlantic
route. The withdrawal will be made on
the return of the two steamships to Chi
cago from Liverpool. Similar action viii
be taken with the companys other two
steamships unless the alleged extortions
shall be abated during the six weeks in
terval that will elapse before the steam
ers again make this port and the route
will be abandoned until such time as sat
isfactory rates can be arranged
AS high as $1.75 to 800 has been
charged shippers for cargo insurance to
Liverpool from this port, and the average
rate has been not less than SIPS, at which
figure there is a discrimination against
the Chicago company of about $500 a
cargo, or $1,000 a round trip.
Lines running to Europe from New
York or Montreal are able to secure in
surance as low as 80 cents.
In explanation of the abandonment of
Chicago as am ocean port by the North
western Steamship company, Charles
Counselman, president of the company,
said tonight 1--WE have been compelled
to pay about three times as much as
other steamship lines shipping from At
lantic ports. No shipping business can
stand this, and consequently we have de-
cided to draw off until such time as we
can secure fair treatment. The reason
for the discrimination is simply the fact
that the Atlantic companies carry many
times as much insurance as we do, and
as they do not wish the growth of the di-
rect export trade from Chicago, they use
their influence with the insurance COM
panies and throttle our efforts by TRIPPING
our insurance rates. Whether there is
an, insurance pool do not know, but I
know there is not sufficient competition
to assure as fair treatment.
'"The Northeastern and Northtown, on
their return from Europe in about a
week." said Manager w. F. Purdy of
the steamship company, will be put into
the lake grain trade The Northwest and
the Northman are on their way to Liver
pool. They, too, may be taken off the
transatlantic route unless the insurance
companies shah come to terms with u.s.

l..
NEW YORK, Aug. IA number OF
sailors who went to Colombia in the
steam yacht Nauma, recently bought by
the Colombian government for use as a
gunboat, returned to New York last
night. According to statements made by
officers to the Herald when the yacht,
which was known as the Gen. Pinzon,
arrived at Colon there were great fes-
tivities. She left on a coastwise trip,
letting fly her broadsides to overawe
any insurgents who might be looking her
way. This done the vessel returned to

their release. He trie5 20 induce them to

AUTOMOBILES IMPROVING.
Electric Machine Goes 200 Miles on
One Charge.

CHICAGO, Aug. Nearly 200 miles on
one battery charge Is the latest perform
ance of an electric automobile, setting a
new mark for these vehicles. The ma
chine is the joint output Of the Cleveland
companies and a Chicago company. The
performance Of the new machine IS due
to the advanced improvements in the
parts Of the machine, battery, motor and
running gear which enables it TO COM
plete more than twice as many miles on
one charge as has heretofore been done
by electric vehicles. The test was made
on the Chicago boulevards between p.

The smotherlng Scene.

AS to stage appointments, there
were no plush or velvet curtains or
couches draped with satin in early
days. The furniture was as unpreten-
tious as the costumes. Indeed on one
occasion when lady was playing Des-
demona to her husbands Othello dis
astrous and ut the same time ludicrous
effect, though of course unrehearsed,
had been imminent through the lack of
even q nail or two to make an old stool
steady.
1t was the smothering scene, and the
couch was made up of two chairs and a
rickety stool covered, of course. with
the simplest draperies-a red merino
curtain trimmed with yellow worsted
fringe. Imagine Desdemona endeav-
oring to recline gracefully, all the while
feeling portions of her couch sliding
from under her. This is how the scene
was played out:
Desdemona-Kin me tomorrow; let me live to-
night. Qm falling. dearD
Othello-Nay, If you strive (keep quite still-)
Desdcmona-But half an hour ooh, hold med
push the stool under)
Desdemona-But while say a prayer. Do be
quick, Robert, it is slipping.)
Othello-It is too latel
Which, indeed. it was, for the bed col
lapsed, and Desdemona's body lay up
ON the floor, her head upon the sole
chair, which stuck TO its post faithful

A Dreadful Moment.

A conductor on the Park line had an
experience the other day that is quite
certain to cause him many uncomforta-
bic minutes In the future. His car
stopped at Spruce street to let n middle
aged lady on. and as she took her seat
the conductor gave the motorman two
bells, and the car shot ahead. When
the conductor entered the car, the wo-
man in question was looking out of the
window and did not see his outstretch-
ed hand.
''Fare, please" remarked the con-
ductor.
The woman evidently did not hear
him, for she did not turn her head.
Neither did she hold out the necessary
coin.
"Fare. please" said the conductor in
a louder tone.
But the woman paid no heed. Then
the conductor touched her on the shout
der and in a tone of voice that rang
through the car exclaimed:
Your fare, please. LADY,
Then the woman turned hastily
around and Looked at the conductor

gasp and fed to the back platform.

The Past Four Years.
My fellow citizens. the public events
of the past four years have gone into
history. They are too near to Justify
recital. Some of them were unfor-
seen: many of them momentous and
far-reaching in their consequences to
ourselves and our relations with the
rest of the world. The part which

new to American life. has been in har-
mony with its true spirit and best ira

suits its policy will be that of modera-
ton and fairness.
We face at this moment most
important question-that of the future
