MAGISTRATE WAS CONVICTED.
Justice of the Peace Found Guilty
of Cattle Stealing.

Dublin, Ca. Feb. S.-Yesterday. in
Laurens Superior Court, justice of
the peace was convicted or a charge of
simple larceny, the jury, however. rec
ommending that he be punished as for
a misdemeanor. Watson was fined $500
by Judge Evans. or given the alterna-
tive of serving twelve months on the
county gang.
The charge was cattle stealing. For
a number of years the people of a sec
ton of this county have suffered from
cattle thieves. They have done every
thing possible to break up the gang,
but have failed to convict any of the
parties until this term of the court.
During the past few days a half dozen
convictions for cattle-stealing have re-
suited. and it is now believed that the
right gang has been captured.
The justice of the peace in question
was elected over the protest of the
white voters, the negroes being in the
majority in the district controlling the
election. He is a white man. There are
two indictments pending against him
in the City Court.

VATICAN ENTERS DENIALS.
Gov. Taft's Attitude in Philippine
Questions Not Unsatisfactory.


Rome, Feb. S.-The Vatican emphati-
cally denies all the rumors of Cardinal
Rampolla's dissatisfaction regarding
Gov. Taft's attitude in the Philippine
questions. Dissatisfaction is felt at the
Vatican towards the arrangements in
itiated by Mgr. Guilds predecessors
with the mediators, to whom, in addi-
ton to large salaries, they promised rs
per cent. of the property, if the medi-
ators should succeed in retaining it for
the church.
The effect of Mgr. Guilds latest re-
ports, and mature consideration, seem
to have decided the Vatican that the
best solution is to return to the orig
inal proposition made by the United
States to resort to arbitration for the
purchase of the friar lands, the settle
ment of the rentals, the indemnity for
damage due from the United States,
and the administration of the charita-
BILE and educational trusts. 1t is re-
ported that the Pope has always sup
ported this solution.
