INTENSELY DRAMATIC SCENE.
The ExcOmmunicated Priest, Father
Crowley, De6es the Author
ity of the Bishop.

Chicago, Nov. 3.-There was an In.
tensely dramatic scene in Holy Name
Cathedral to-day, when, in the pres
ence of fully one thousand parishicp-
ers, eJremiah j. Crowley, the excom-
municated Roman Catholic priest
was publicly Inundated by order OF
the authorities of the church.
Father Crowley had entered the
church unobserved, passing up tn.
center aisle, and had taken a seat al
most under the pulpit. Solemn high
mass was being celebrated at the time.
When the presence of Father Crowley
became known, Rev. Francis j. Bar
ry. chancellor of the archdiocese of
Chicago, was hurriedly sent for. Upon
entering the cathedral he Went
straight to the seat where the excom-
municated clergyman was kneeling
and ordered him to leave the church
Father Crowley refused to go, say.
ing:
Put me out if you dare"
The strain was intense, and one
woman tainted. There was no resort
to force, however. Chancellor Barry
signalled to a man in the choir loft,
and the sound of the organ ceased
and the singing of the choir was
hushed.
The priests in the altar stopped
the solemn service at the end of the
Gloria and walked to the benches
and laid aside their golden vest
oil
of the sanctuary through a side door,
and the priests, clad in their cassocks,
followed. The next moment the hum
| dreds of incandescent lights in the
| vatftted arches We're eXtinguished and
the candle lights on the altar were
| put out.
The strain was broken when Cham
cellor Barry appeared in the pulpit
| and said:
Owing to the presence in this sa-
| cred edifce of an communicated
priest the solemn high mass has been
suspended. We will proceed with a
| low mass"
No sermon was delivered, however,
and the mass was at an end before
the congregation was calm again. The
parishioners fingered around the ca
| thedral and watched the deposel
priest as he hurried away. None
spoke to him.
In statement issued last night Fa,
ther Crowley insisted that it had
been his desire to avoid involving any
of his brother priests in contesting
the order depriving him of the priv
ilege of worshipping in Catholic
churches, and that, accordingly, he
had attended the church of. Arch
bishop Feehan's own parish, which is
the cathedral. He announced that he
should continue to attend the serv-
| ices of the Roman Catholic church.

NEBRASKA AT WORLDS FAIR.
Gov. Savago's Plan for securiss Proper
Representation Of His state
mt st. Louis.

Lincoln. Neb.. Nov. j.-If the plans
of Gov. Savage do not miscarry, Ne
braska will take Il prominent position
in the field OF exhibitors at the Lou-
isiana Purchase exposition in St.
Louis in 1909.
Il can not consent he said, ITO Ne
braska being unrepresented at the
Louisiana Purchase exposition at st.
Louis in 1903. Nebraska is part of
the territory purchased from France
in 1909, and it would reflect on our
pride. our enterprise and our patri-
otism should we fail 90 join with our
sister states in promoting this great
undertaking.
THE last Legislature having failed
TO make an appropriation for an ex-
hibit. and it being impossible to Sc
cure an appropriation before most OF
the money required should be ex-
pended. | have decided to appeal to
the pride and patriotism of the ctr
zens of this state with view to Sc
curing the necessary funds.
MY plan is to appoint commits
sion whose patriotism and loyalty are
unquestioned. who shall have charge
of the exhibit and provide the funds
required to complete and maintain it.
In my bienntial message to the Leg
islature ! shall ask that money he
appropriated to reimburse those who
have advanced funds for this pur-
pose.
Nebraska is yet young state ana
rich in natural resources affordinr
opportunities for the profitable in
vestment of capital, and it can enter
as an exhibitor with assurance of am

Lord Pauncefote, the British Am
bassador, Calls Officially
Upon Secretary Hay.
READY TO GO TO WORK ON NEW TREATY.
The Condition of the Convention IL
mt Present Merely In the Form Of
Protocols, Which Will be Trans
ferred Into the Form of u Formal
Treaty without Delay.

Washington, Nov. 5.-Lord Paunce-
fote, the British ambassador, called
upon Secretary Hay to announce
formally to the secretary his return
from a vacation in England and his
readiness to undertake at once the
conclusion of the new Hay-Paunce-
fote treaty. The interview lasted
about half an hour. Many topics
were touched upon beside the treaty,
which was not given particular con-
sideration, the conversation on that
point being rather preliminary to the
beginning of the treaty drafting.
Lord Pauncefote did not bring with
him to the state department copy
of the proposed convention. In fact,
for, although the principal points of
the treaty have been agreed upon be-
tween the two principals, they have
yet to be transferred from protocols
into a formal treaty. This work of
transferenee will begin in about a
week, according to the present ex-
pectation, and if it proceeds steadily
after that time, the new treaty will
be in shape for submission to the SEN
ate Immediately after that body con-
venes next month.
Lord Pauncefote did not bring to
Secretary Hay any late news respect
ing the views of the British govern
ment as to the treaty. The secre-
tary had been advised so fully by Am
bassador Choate at their conference
at New Haven of the details of what
had been done in London, and the ca
BILE reports had been so complete that
there was nothing new to be com.
municated on the subject.

interested in the movement are adj
vocating the exploiting of magniti-

greatest advantage the fine public

the sentiment of the business men of
Iowa is in favor of state exhibit
that will cost as much as $250,000, and
they talk of petitioning the legisla-
ture to appropriate that amount Of
money.

Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 5.-Ala-
bama will be represented at the
Louisiana Purchase exposition to be
held at ST. Louis. Commissioner of
Agriculture Il. X. Poole is very much
elated over the success of the exhibit
he made at Buffalo, on which he ex-
pended only $1,000. and which received
more medals and honorable mentions
than the exhibit of any southern
state. Mr.. Poole will preserve the
nonperishable portions of the Buffa-
la exhibit as the basis of his dis
play at St. Louis. He says:
We will spend $4,000 on the Louis
lana Purchase display, and with the
articles we have in hand to start on,
we will be able to max ten times the
show we had at buffalo. Our exhibit
there was small, but for genuine mer-
it as showing the resources of the
state | do not yield the palm to any
state. north or suoth. We will be
on the lookout from now until the
time comes for new articles for our
display"

MINISTER WU'S RECALL.
Not Yet Received, But May Arriv,,
at Any Timc-Will Return to
China When Relieved.

Washington, Nov. 4.--Mr. WI, the
Chinese minister, returned to the
city, last night, from his trip to Ann
Arbor, Mich, where he went to deliv-
er an address to the students. Re
plying to questions on the subject,
Mr.. WI said he had not received any
notice of his recall to China, a step
which a Peking dispatch of Saturdays
date said had been determined upon,
nor had he received any intimation
that he would be asked to return. As
he has therefore expressed himself,
the minister would not be surprised
in the least if such action were con-
templated by his government, as he
now has served on the mission here
for more than year longer than the
customary time allowed by the for
eign office at any one place, viz, three
years. He is simply holding over
now, and his recall and the appoint
ment of a successor would be simply
in line with established practice
Mr.. Wu's tenure has been very sat
isfactory to the administration, and
it is understood that it was through
representations of the officials here,
conveyed to the Chinese government,
that it was continued
When asked whether he would re-
turn to China if he were recalled, Mr..
WI replied with the following:
'Why shouldn't /? All my interests
are there

we have labored and helped to make it

our white neighbors and intend to en-
JOY it. We are aware of the fact that
there is no social equality and perhaps
will never be. for none of us are trying
to bring it about. Every intelligent.
sensible negro wants to be entertained
by his own and the same is true with
the whites. They do not want to
entertain us socially, nor do they want
us to entertain them. but they want
every man to cultivate and build up his
own social standing. Lift up our own
women. 1t is along this line that we
must work and not play. Get some
thing in your head in your heart and
in your pocket and the world will re-
spect you. The negro must lift up
himself. He must be something in

but work hard. The negro must fight
sin and wrong. We are not doomed

stay, here is where we must fight evil
We must break up Sunday excursions.
