POPE WILL SEND MISSIONS
TO ENGLAND AND SPAIN
Anti-Catholio Clause in Coronation
Oath of King Edward the
Stumhling-B10ck

Rome. April Sin spite OF the opposition
of Cardinal Rampolla. the Papal Secretary
of State. the Pope has decided to SEND i'm
portant special missions both to the corona
ton of King Edward and the festivities In
Spain attendant upon the e~nthroning OF
King Alfonso.
The Cardinals opposition to sending Of
the mission to England was based On tn:
change the anticatholic formula OF the &C.
cession oath. and that Mgr. Merry De!
Val. whom the Pontiff designed to be chief
Of the missions. openly refused to 90 willis
the present wording Of the oath Is main
tanned. Nevertheless, the mission will be
sent, and will probably arrive In London in
n few hours after the religious m
This will be a repetition Of the diplomatic
maneuver carried out at the coronation Of
Car Nicholas II at Moscow.
The question of the ACCESSIBILITY Of the
Papal mission to Spain was due to the
Compromise effected by the Queen Regent
in naming the Spanish Ambassador to the
Vatican as her representative at the Pope's
Jubilee. Under ordinary circumstances .
royal Prince would have been appointed.
but he would have been Obliged to also 90
to the Quirinal, thus creating q situation
full Of unpleasant possibilities.

TO account for Senator Hale's statements
on any reasonable theory, for they are Ger
tainly illogical and incorrect. ii is true,
he said. that the foreign trade of the
United States has grown in the most as.
tonishing manner since the passage of the
Dingley law, but ii is far from being true
that have captured all the foreign
trade worth having If that were the case
the people of other countries would not be
discussing 1.-The American peril and how
to save their still uncaptured markets 1t
is not contended that the United States
ought to dominate the earth commercially
that she can ever capture all its mar
kets but there certainly is still a great
field for the extension of foreign trade.
Moreover, We have got to fight to keep what
we have. Senator Hale's deprecative and
almost sneering allusion to Oriental trade
is not justified by the opinion of the COM
mercial world generally, and his state
ment that I'VE do not need additional mar
kets' is strangely out Of keeping with the
spirit of the times.

AN ERRONEOUS VIEW

That was a curious coloquy that &C.
Cured between Senators Hale and Hanna
on Thursday. The bill to establish new
Department of Commerce was before the
Senate and Senator Hanna was speaking
in favor of it. The measure has secured
the Endorsement of the National Board of
Trade. of a great many local boards Of
trade and of business organizations and
large business interests generally. 1t pro-
poses to associate a number of bureaus
from departments to which they are now
attached without any logical propriety and
group them all together in a new'depart-
ment whose head should be member of
the Cabinet and who would have special
charge of the interests of labor and COM
merce. Senator Hanna favored the meas
ure in the interests of the extension of
foreign trade. He said he was in a posi-
ton TO state that the laboring organizations
Of the country generally favored the bill
because he had discussed il with them and
knew that to be so. He believed the es-
adjustment of the new department was in
the interests of both capital and labor, and
he declared that in his opinion the time
had come when we must expand our com
merce or restrict our production. At this
point. says the press report
Senator Hanna was interrupted by Mr..
Hale. OF Maine, who said that the United
States already had captured all the for
eign trade worth having. And he in
quired of Mr.. Hanna whether he did not
realize that as being a fact
Il don't" promptly replied Mr.. Hanna.
THE senator and l disagree said Mr..
Hale.
I'VE do" replied Mr. Hanna.
1.-The record of what has been accom-
plished by the Dingley law" continued Mr..
Hale, lis to me the most amazing record
ever exhibited TO the world in the absorp-
ton of foreign trade We have absorbed
foreign trade in the great countries that
are competitors OF ours. We have not
wasted our energies in a dream OF what
is called Oriental trade. which never did
and never will figure in comparison with
the markets of the civilized world We
have invaded England. Germany, Austria
Italy and Russia, and for the senator (AIr.
Hanna). who stands as representative of
the achievements OF the Dingley law To
join the ranks OF men who declare that we
will be ruined If we do not get additional
markets for our goods is 10 me a matter
of surprise. We do not need further
action nor do need additional mar
kets.
Senator Hanna replied that from his
point OF view the markets of the world
were still an UNEMPLOYED field for the
United States and continued his argument
in favor OF the pending bill. Ii is difficult

YUAN Sill KAPS SCHEME
HE WANTS FOREIGNERS TO MODERN.
IZE THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT.
Would Employ Men of High STANDING
Executive Boards as Advisers.

PEKING, Jan. A.-The dowager Empress
ing the engagement of foreign advisers to
reorganize the government Yuan Shi Kai,
viceroy of Pe-Chi-Li, is the inspiration of
the movement. He will return to Pao-Ting-
Flu tomorrow, having devoted several days
to impressing on the court the Importance
of real reforms and urging the adoption of
foreign methods as being the only practical
measures. He memorialized the throne rec
ommending the employment of eight for
eigners of eminence in various branches of
governmental science, attaching them to
different boards. The scheme i'm it's pres
ent form, after having been discussed by
the members of the Council, is to engage
six foreign authorities, respectively, on in
ternational law and finance, and on mill
tary, naval, parliamentary, domestic and
governmental affairs. Yuan Shi Kai and
his followers are hopeful of practical re-
suits. They are taking Japan as their
model. Any attempt TO institute a parlia-
ment of any sort would. however, meet
with tremendous opposition from the Man
chus.
While the employment of foreign advisers
is no new idea with the Chinese. in only
exceptional instances has II produced last
ing results. because inferior men were often
engaged TO advise and were usually only
half-heartedly followed. Yuan Shi Kai pro-
poses to secure men of unquestioned abili-
ties and clothe them with some real au-
thority If the court adopts the plan it's
outcome will be watched with interest
as lobbying by the powers for representa-
ton among the councillors probably will
begin.
Prince Ching president of the Chinese
Foreign Office, desires that his eldest son
should represent China at the coronation
of King Edward. and his appointment as
the Chinese special envoy is expected.

Two years ago, when the township trus-
the new township legislation creating ad-
visory boards and requiring them to make
accurate and detailed reports of the ex-
penditure for outdoor poor had not long
been in force. The majority displayed much
hostility TO those laws and treated Secre-
tary Butler with scant courtesy when he,
by invitation. explained the poor law. The
trustees in session this week were not the
same men, but experience seemed to have
taught them that the legislation of 1899
respecting townships is salutary. The cost
of maintaining outdoor poor has fallen
from $4,000 four years ago to 100000 the
last year for which returns were made.
