VISITED TRAPPlST MONKS.
Monastery's Doors Open to Gov. ana
Mrs. Beckham.

Gethsemane, Ky, June 5.--When Mrs.
Gov. Beckham OF Kentucky passed the por-
tails of the famous trappist monastery of
Gethsemane to-day she carried with her
the distinction of being the second wo-
man that has ever had the honor to dis
turb the monastic peace OF this beautiful
old monastery.
The party was led to the por-
ter's lodge, over which is
the sign which forbids women to enter
under pain of accommodation. Mrs.
Beckham glanced at the sign and then
at the lay brother in his brown coat.
whose duty Is to prevent feminine in
vasion. But for once the monk was dis
armed and the woman rustled proudly by
INFO the sacred domain of the trappist
asceties. The band of perpetual silence
of the brothers in the white cowl was
temporarily lifted by the abbot and the
brothers were permitted to express their
pleasure at meeting the executive.
At dinner rendered by Father
O'Brecht Gov. Beckham spoke of
former visit he had made with a party
OF young men and women.
I'VE were graciously received by Faith
er Edward, who was then the abbot"
he said. but we were forbidden within
Ailtrt EhtiGu precincts. L ne yOufE WO-
man with me peered into the door and
expressed a desire to go in. When MT.
Reckham is Governor and you are Mrs
Beckham, you may enter said Father
Edward, with faint smile. The young
woman, who blushed then, was Jean
Fuqua, now Jean Fuqua Beckham.

have now opened the gates OF the monas-
terry to us both"
The Governors party consisted of TWEEN
ty members. The abbot also had twenty
guests. which included some of the noted
Catholic clergymen and bishops in the
country.
The rules are that none but the wives
Of a reigning prince or king shall have
the privilege of admission. and this rule
has been interpreted TO apply in this
country 10 the President and Governor.
The wife of ex-Gov. Proctor Knott was

THEY WANT RECIPROCITY.

Manufacturers Declare Themselves
in Favor OF Tariff Revision.
Detroit June 5,--Commercial reciprocity
was the theme which the Manufacturers
National Association discussed to-day and
enc on which widely diverging views were
expressed at times when self interest
alone prevailed, but when these interests
were laid aside and the good of the man
ufacturing Industries of the United States
was considered in the aggregate, then
the delegates were agreed that reciprocity
was the only means by which the foreign
trade of the American manufacturer could
he safeguarded. During the discussion of
the presidents report at the morning ses-
sion,, Gen. w. H. Wilmington of Jack,
son, Mich, said he thought the
business men of the country and
not the politicians should have the most
to say about the tariff laws. He was in
favor of tariff revision, although he had
hitherto been in favor of a high tariff.
w. L. Saunders, vice president, of the
lngerson Sergeant Drill Company of New
York agreed with Gen. Wilmington. He
said high tariff was not only unneces-
sary, but a hindrance and a danger to
our business.
Our Russian sugar controversy" said
he, shows how we may be legislated
against by other nations"
There were a number of other express
sions of opinion along the same lines.
A resolution declaring Section S of the
Dingley tariff law relating to the assess
ment of countervailing duty on Russian
sugars was inimical to the best interests
OF this country and asking Congress to
repeal or modify it wes passed.

Mr.. MORGAN'S HAND

ciates Believed to Hold a Majority

ceeds j. NJ. Barr as Third Vice
President.
New York June 5.-The Atchison To-
peSa and Santa Fe Railroad Company
has declared the regular semi-annual div
Idend of 2h per cent. on its preferred
stock, payable, Aug. /.
The directors have voted to abolish the
Office of chairman of the board, and have
elected D. L. Gallup permanent vice
chairman with headquarters at New York.
Charles Steel. of the firm of j. P.
Morgan g. Co., was elected director in
pace of the late Aldace Walker. He was
also placed on the Executive Committee
OF the road.
A new office was created at to-day's
meeting that of chairman of the Execu-
tive Committee, and Victor Morowetz
was chosen to fiji it. ]. W. Kendrick
was elected third vice president in place
of j. M. Barr who has resigned to go
with the Seaboard Air Line Railway Com
pany.
The Mail and Express says of Mr..
Steele's election to the Atchison directo-
rate:
The election of Mr.. Steele means that
in the future Mr.. Morgan is to be one of
the ruling factors in the company. It
also brings to light some exceedingly in
teresting facts in regard to the Western
Railroad situation, which thus far have
been kept secret. Nobody supposed that
Mr. Morgan wanted to get a foothold in
the Atchison, but it has been known for
some time that the Pennsylvania Rail-
road had bought large block OF the
stock, and would in due time be given a
representation in the board of directors.
A representative of the Pennsylvania will
be chosen shortly.
Most of the Pennsylvania purchases of
Atchison were made months ago at ma
terially lower prices than prevail to-day.
The Burlington incident and Northern
Pacific corner however, brought great
financial powers into opposition and
changed the programme which had been
outlined only a short time before. With
the possibility that the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific might be used to the
great disadvantage of some of the Eastern
railroads, such as the Pennsylvania Van
derbit and Southern Railway systems, it
became essential that sufficient interest
in the Atchison should be acquired to en-
able Messrs. Morgan Cassatt and their
associates to reach far Western points
which are not accessible by the Northern
trans-continental lines.
afA0nordfpU to
Atchison interests, Mr.. Morgan and those
whom he represents, including, perhaps
the Pennsylvania, now hold a majority
of the common stock. of which $102, O0O,-
0)0 is outstanding. 1t is believed that Mr.
Morgan is acting in harmony with the
Pennsylvania interests and that they will
pool their stock"

GIRLS THROW STONES.

at Pnssaic Factory.

New York, June 5.-There was another
outbreak on the part of the girl strikers
at the Acheson-Harden Company's hand
kerchief factory at Pasaic. N. j., to-day
The force of policemen on guard at the
factory had been reduced to two. The
strikers took advantage of this and made
a fierce attack, not only on the girls who
reported for work. but on the factory
itself. Volleys of stones were thrown
at the building, and a number of win
dows were smashed. The two policemen
charged on the strikers, but were re-
ceived with a shower of stones. A call
was sent to headquarters for reinforce
ments. The police arrested three of the
girl strikers. and one man who tried to
rescue the girls from the hands of the
police.
