Americas little neighbor, Richland,
again suffers from the fire fend. At

The fire was discovered about clock

fire is not known, but probably was
incendiary. The plant was quite a

that the property was uninsured.

THE TAFT PROPOSALS.

Rome, July ll.-Monsignor Gasparri,
secretary of the Philippines committee
of cardinals, has had several conferences
with Bishop OGorman, of Sioux City,
about the Vatican's answer to Governor
Taft's note, and especially its refusal to
agree to the withdrawal of the friars, as
Taft requests. A prominent cardinal
speaking of the negotiations today, said:
1.-THE American government has shown
itself very fresh in making such re-
quest. If President Roosevelt had been
more experienced he would not have sent
Taft on such wild goose expedition. "

THE PRESIDENT AT OYsTERBAY.

Oyster Bay, n. Y, July lI-Senator
McLaurin, of South Carolina, accom-
panied by D. D. Colcock, secretary OF
the Louisiana Cane Growers Associa-
ton, came in this morning. 1--WE met
in New York, just by accident" said
Mr.. Colcock, and "though we came
down here togethere there is no con-
nection between our calls. | merely
wish to talk sugar to the President. "
Senator McLaurin will lunch with the
President and expects to return to New
York by the 4:l4train. Senator McLaur-
in is here to talk with the Chief Magis-
trate about the vacant judgeship in the
Court of Claims. The President prom
ised him the place three months ago but
for some unaccountable reason did not
send his name to the Senate. Judge
Spencer B. Adams, lately appointed to
Che Indian Territory bench had long con-
sultation with the President last night
and Immediately following it took the
train for the West. The President has
received the Pope's reply to Governor
Taft's note, but will not make it public or
sanction its publication until the negotla-
tons with the Vatican are concluded.
The removal of the friars is said TO be
the main point of difference now. The
President is resolved to secure their re-
moval at all hazards; the Pope, it is said,
wishes them to remain upon certain Of
their lands. 81 am supported by a
large number of thinking Catholics in
this country in my desire to see the
frlars dispossessed," said the President
TO a friend several days ago. ''The
friars of the Philippines are altogether
different from the priests we know
in this country. Our priests are in
telligent, educated, moral, Christian
gentleman; the friars are ignorant, brutal
and immoral" When the negotiations
with the Vatican are concluded, the
President will make the entire matter
nublic from Washington.

THE GREENE-GAYNOR CASE.

Quebec, Canada, July 11.-Judge
Lafontaine, extradition commissioner
at Montreal, in obedience to the order of
the court transferred all records in the
Green Gaynor case this morning to
Quebec. After the records were filed
the prosecution moved to quash the
habeas corpus proceedings and send the
prisoners back to Montreal. Counsellor
Taschereau, for the defense, made a
violent attack on the American District
Attorney Erwin, for his complaint to
Washington on alleged inaction of the
Canadian authorities. A sensation was
sprung in court by the declaration OF
counsel for Mcssrs. Greene and Gaynor
that District Attorney Erwin of Sayan-
nah, who has stirred up a cesspool by
his recent report to Washington, offered
to settle the case for $780, 600 from the
prisoners. This declaration, it was said,
would be supported by affidavit.

iOnal nomination between Messrs. Las
sitter and Southall will be determined. In
six of the districts-the First, Fifth, Sew
enth, Eighth, Ninth and Tenth-thein-
cumbents were nominated without opposi-
ton, thus doing away with the necessity
for primaries. The other districts will vote
on the following dates: Second, August
10th; Third, September 18th; Sixth,
August I'd. Messrs. Lamb and Wallace
have both entered in the Third, The
time will expire tomorrow, and no
other entries are anticipated. The
political leaders will watch the outcome
in the Fourth not so much on account of
interest in the race between Messrs.
Lassiter and Southall as to see how the
new primary law will work.
