MoNsIGNoR sBARETTI.
Calls to See Secretary Root-Referred
--...,..,, to Col. Edwards.

Monsgnor sbaretti. accompanied by his
secretary the Rev DIR. Broderick. has ar
rived in Washington. NJ. Sbaretti called
at once upon Cardinal Martineili to pay
his respects, and then went 70 the War De-
partment to see Secretary Root. The Sec
rotary was about to take the noon train
for New York so he was obliged to merely
greet his visitor and refer him to Colonel
Edwards. chief of the insular bureau, I'M
til he Secretary Root returns to WASH
ington tomorrow. NJ. Sbaretti is really 'on
his way to Manila from Rome. He has
been chosen as archbishop of Manila to re-
lieee Archbishop Nozalagen, who retires
voluntarily to Rome. 1t is understood that
pope III recognition of the excellent serv-
ceeded in a task which up to that time
ranged satisfactory and complete divorce
of state from church to the entire satisfac-
ton of both parties. Therefore. he is to
undertake 4 similar work in the Philip
pines, and he wishes to talk to the officials
here before proceeding to his post. Natu-
rally the yexed question, of the acquisition
of the friars' lands by the Philippine gov
eminent would be among the very first
to engage the energies of n. Sbaretti.
But there is some indication that Arch
bishops Ireland and OGorman have al
ready taken some part in the negotiations
on this subject. and it is not certain that
NJ. Sbaretti will relieve them entirely Of
that task.

MISS HARTMAN INJURED.
Daughter Of Noted Financier Nearly
Killed by Horse.

CHICAGO, March 26-The visit to Phoe-
nix, Ariz, of E. H. Hartman, president of
the Southern Pacific railroad, and party
was marked by an event which came near
being a tragedy. Mr.. Harriman's party
started for a horseback ride about the city,
when Miss Mary Hartman, the young
daughter of the financier, became engaged
in a fierce battle with the broncho she was
riding, says special to the Tribune.
Miss Hartman was no sooner in the
saddle than the horse began to buck With
great cleverness the girl kept her seat as
the vicious horse reared and sidestepped.
Mr.. Hartman and half a hundred other
men rushed to the rescue. but could not
get near the plunging animal. Miss Harrf-
man sat like a veteran "broncho-buster"
until the horse slipped and rolled over her.
She escaped with an injured ankle, but 1t
was considered almost a miracle that she
was not crushed to death. =
Miss Hartman, who is a noted equestri-
enne and familiar figure on the avenues
of New York and San Francisco, was warn
ed against the horse, but refused to enter
tain any fear Of the animal. She showed
less anxiety during the fight with the horse
than the spectators.

LEPRosY IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Disease Believed to Be Due. to Eating
Bad Fish.

LONDON, March 26.-Dr Jonathan
Hutchinson, formerly president of the
Royal College of Surgeons, who recently
returned to England from studying the
causes of leprosy in South Africa, has ar
rived at thes conclusion that the primary
cause Of the disease Is the use, as food, of
badly cured salt fish, which is sent inland
from Cape Town and elsewhere On the
west and south coasts and is largely con-
sumed by the farmers and in the industrial
centers. While giving this as the chief
cause Of the diffusion of leprosy, DR.. Hutch
inson obtained conclusive evidence that
Ieprosy, in very exceptional circumstances,
may be communicated from person to
person.
He does not believe that it is either in
fectious or contagious, in the proper sense
of these words, but may be communicated
by eating food contaminated by 1epers
hands. DR.. Hutchinson suggests, as PIE
ventive measures, legislative control of the
fish-curing establishments, the diffusion OF
information in regard to the danger OF
communication. and the establishment OF
isolation homes for lepers during the stage
Of the disease involving risk Of contract
ing it.

TOBACCO FIGHT IN LONDON.
American Company Pressing the I'm
perial Company Hard.

LONDON, March 26.-The local represen-
tatives of the American Tobacco Company
took an important step this morning to-
ward gaining the support of the wholesale
dealers, practically promising the latter
per cent profit on all deals with them The
chairman of the Wholesale Tobacco Deal
ers' Association says that unless the I'm
perial Tobacco Company meets them in
similar spirit there will be bad outlook
for the British tobacco trust.
A rumor is again in circulation here to
the effect that j. B. Duke, president of the
American Tobacco Company, is negotiat
ing with the French government with the
view Of taking over its tobacco monopoly.
The American, 1t is said, offers to deposit
a sum guaranteeing for five years a profit
considerably in excess of the present re-
turns. A rumor to the same effect was In
circulation early in January Of the present
year.
1t is pointed out that II such PROPOSE
ton was ever advanced 1t was quite impos-
sible of realization. Tobacco Is one Of the
chief sources of French revenue and shows
an enormous annual Increase. Apart from
this, the monopoly furnishes those in pow
er with an endless means Of repaying polit-
fcaI debts, and any transfer Of the monopoly
would Immediately convert thousands Of
employees into opponents Of the govern
ment.

the elimination of an attempt to have the
ceremony take place yesterday. Consent
was first given by Sergeant-at-Arms Rams
dell, revoked a short time afterward and
then extended again this morning.
Justice Bundy was taken into the con-
hdence of the pair yesterday and consent
ed to perform the ceremony The officials
or the Capitol were notified of the aspira-
lions OF the lovers from cold Canada and
tropical Cuba and the colored messenger
consented to act as pilot and witness and 2
O'Clock was set as the hour for the event.
A short time after these arrangements
were made the serious side of the affair be-
gan to dawn on the assistants in the office
or the sergeant-at-arms Of the Senate. The
navy but ominous aspect of international
complications began to arise. Precedents
were looked up and statutes scanned with
the result that just before the hour of =
arrfved-the hour for .the ceremony-a bur
ry cal was sent to the sergeant of police.
and detail Of uniformed and .'plain
clothes" men was sent to the come and to
all of its entrances with instructions to
obstruct and turn back "all bridal couples :"
or those having the appearance OF being
bent on a matrimonial errand to the dome
So rigidly were these orders enforced that
the business of the Capitol guides in the
direction of the lofty pinnacle was serious
ly interfered with for several hours.
But all this went for naught, as stated
and the sequel proves that love may laugh
at bolts and bars and make sport of obdu-
rate Capitol policemen.

Constantly Evading the Law.
POST OFFICE CHIEF CLERK.
Proposition to Remove Position From
Civil Service Protection.


1t was said on good authority today and
generally accepted among certain officials
of the Post Office Department that the
post of chief clerk OF that department is
to be withdrawn from the protection of
the civil service by executive order. This
order is to take effect, it is said, July l.
The present chief clerk is Mr.. Blaine w.
Taylor of West Virginia, a democrat. The
salary of the position is $3.50 year None
of the officials most directly interested
could be seen this afternoon. Postmaster
General Payne was not IN his Office. Neither
MIR Proctor nor Mr.. Foulke of the civil
service commission could be located. Com
missioner Rodenberg, had not been consult
ed on the matter. And Mr.. Taylor would
neither confirm nor deny the report.
When the matter was first preached to
the commission it is reported that body
disapproved of the proposed step vigorous
~. 1t was represented that 1T removed
fl ON the rank and file of the clerical force
the incentive of promotion to very de-
sirable post; that it meant either the trans
fer or the removal OF clerk against whom
no charges were filed; that it made an ex-
ception of one chief clerkship while seven
other similar positions with equal salaries
were not affected. In view of this attitude
the President Is reported to have taken the
matter into his own hands and directed
that the'change ne made by his authority,
Some gossip was heard as to Mr.. Taylors
possible successor. All of 1t was based,
however, ON the most patent conjecture and
the impression seemed very strong among
those most informed as to post Office at
fairs fiat only the President and Mr..
Payne. knew in whose favor the change
was being made: So
Commissioner, Foulke. was seen late this
afternoon and asked to make a statement
on the case 1T is not true he said, that
the civil service commission has passed On
the matter. There has been some talk of
such a removal. but the commission has not
yet considered 1t. l have nothing further

CUPID TRIUMPHANT.
Happy Couples Marriage on Parapet
Surrounding Capitol's Dome.

Cuba, Canada, the United States and
Cupid combined to make romantic history
on the topmost part Of the dome of the
Capitol today. Andres Diaz Pairo Of
Cuba and Catherine McConchie Of Canada
were united in marriage by Justice Bundy
of this city on the outside parapet Of the
dome Of the Capitol at o'clock.
The ceremony was brief and simple. The
official witness was Wallace T. Chap. an.
a colored messenger in the Office of Super
intendent Woods OF the Capitol, and the
unofficial Witnesses were Lieut.. Hamlin,
Sergt. Jones and private Of the Capitol
police force. After the ceremony the happy
groom arranged his kodak and requested
.one Of the bystanders to press the button,
and a group picture Of the bride, groom
and Justice Bundy was taken.
/: The bridal party then descended by way
of the Supreme Court roof, SO as to avoid
the curious throng that had gathered at
the entrance leading to the stairway Of the
rotunda. They came down side elevator
to the crypt and were rapidly driven away
in a carriage In waiting under the main
entrance.
The marriage in the dome Of the Capt..
toll today is the second one OF which there
Is an authentic record. The previous one
occurred In 1880, and curiously enough,
the colored messenger Chapman was a
witness at that ceremony.

CAPT. DEMING'S CASE.
Papers Filed With the Clerk of the
Supreme Court

The papers in the case of Capt. Peter C.
Deming were filed in the office of the clerk
of the United States Supreme Court to-
day. Deming is the volunteer army officer
who was tried at San Francisco by court
martial and who after being sentenced to
serve three years III the penitentiary at
Fort Leavenworth, was released by Judge
Hook of the circuit court of appeals for the
eighth circuit on writ of habeas corpus
on the plea that volunteer officer could
not be properly tried by a court mar ial
composed entirely of regular army officers
The assignment of errors Is signed by j
5. Dean. United States attorney, who SIM
ply sets forth that the discharge was err
roneous in that it held that the facts in
the case were not sufficient justification for
Deming's detention at Fort LeavenWorth.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
STATE HOUSE, ANNAPOLIS, Md,
March 26-The bill to provide for the sale
of the Western Maryland railway has
passed both houses of the general assem-
bly, and has gone to the governor, who will
approve 1t without delay. Under this bill
the West Virginia Central people will have
the best chance to get the road. and the
impression prevails that the syndicate back
of the West Virginia company, which is
represented by Senator McComas,- will be
the successful purchasers of the property.
In view of this probability bill has been
passed which allows the road to extend its
lines to the District of Columbia, under the
name Of the Washington and Cumberland
railway.
The representatives of this syndicate, who
are here, say that should they get the
property they are prepared to connect the
West Virginia and Western Maryland lines
and build the extension to Washington
without delay.
All bills which would interfere with the
local option question in Montgomery county
have been killed by the delegation from
that county, and nothing will be done in re-
gard to that subject at this session.

CHILDREN CREATE A SCENE.
Make Objections When Court Orders
Them Restored to Mothers Care.

An incident full OF interest was enacted
this afternoon before Justice Bradley of the
Supreme Court of the District Of Column
bia, when the court directed that Virgie L.
Douglass and Grace K. Douglass, twins,
about twelve years Of age, be placed in
the custody of their mother, Mrs. Minnie
Bibb. For a number of years the girls
have lived with their grandmother, Mrs
Mary A. Beall, and their aunt, Mrs. Jessie
Oerichs.
Upon hearing of a petition for writ Of
habeas corpus last summer Justice Brad
ley directed that the mother should have
the children. The little girls acted in such
manner in court that 1t was necessary
for Justice Bradley to reprove them An
appeal to the Court Of Appeals was prose-
cuted and that tribunal recently affirmed
the ruling Of the lower court. At the in
stance of the mother a rule was issued
requiring that the twins be taken into
court this afternoon. Again the actions of
the girls was such as to cause the court to
warn them that they would be placed in
the custody of q deputy marshal if they
did not behave. '-'-
An order was promptly signed giving the
mother the custody of the children and re
straining the grandmother and aunt from
harboring them. The children left the
court room weeping, under escort of an Of
ficer. and voWing that they will not stay
with their mother.

ADMIRAL MELvILuE'S NUMBER.
Explanatory Note Will Accompany It
in the Register. -

Secretary Long has directed that hereaf-
ter an explanatory note shall be inserted in
the naval register indicating the fact that
Rear Admiral George w. Melville is carried
as an additional number in grade by reason
of his meritorious services in the arctic
regions. The admiral had requested that
his name be marked additional in the
register. but The law is construed to limit
the designation of additional to officers
who were advanced in this manner for ser
vices in the late war So Secretary Long,
realizing that the admiraTs services require
recognition of some sort in the register, has
directed the action stated above.
