Pittsburg July 12.-George J. Gould spent the
day here going over the work being done on the
Wabash terminal He took trip up the Monon-
gahela River in a launch to look over the tom
mage producing section he is anxious to tap
Asked about the story that he was interested
in building a line from ocean to ocean, he said:
THAT story is ridiculous. We have no such
intentions. Our lines reach only to Ogden, west
and we have no notion Of extending In that
direction We have excellent traffic arrange
ments to the Pacific Coast, and are very friendly
with the interests controlling these lines
Mr. Gould said the Gould system between
tidewater and Salt Lake would be in operation
within eighteen months He said that he had
learned on his tour of inspection that business
was not on the decline. He found much con-
struction work under way and by fall he eX-
pected to see the boom take hold and flourish
for several years to come mn
The only blue coot in the country Us is Wad wal

much attention to crops. and believed that they
would be good. He expected to make the w a

Strike of Pipe Calkers Leads TO Angry Dis
pute at Central Federated Union.

The strike of the Pipe Calkers' and Tappers'
Union in the rapid transit subway and other places
which, according to the contractors affects only
twenty-four men in the subway itself, was again
rehearsed to the Central Federated Union yester-
day by Dennis QuiIlan. delegate OF the union.
Quinlan said that he had proved in his opinion
that the wages OF s. 30 a day demanded by the
pipe calkers and tappers the prevailing rate
OF wages. The employers would not listen 10 him
and the strike had followed.
Quinlan followed by Delegate Gleason also
of the Pipe CalkeTs and Tappers Union, who
Federated Union should not allow their members
TO work with uon-unon pipe calkers tappers
while the strike lasted.
Before any reply received, DELEGATE Smith
OF the Plumbers Union. jumped up and wanted
know why the Pipe CallIeTs and Tappers' Union
sent men to do the work of plumbers
Quinlan undertook TO explain. after Smith had
talked for some une Smith said ansrily:
II don't want any con games from Delegate
Qlinan. You know perfectly well, Quinlan. that
this is no rNplanatiOn at aL"
An angry reply was made by ouinlan. whereupon
Smith declared his intention OF putting Quinlan out
OF the Central Federated Union unless the Pipe
CalEers and Tappers Union changed its tactics
There was some excitement. The chairman, bang
ing his savel for order. directed Smith II he had
any, more charges. 10 make them in writing; Smith

THE PONTIFF,S ROOM.
Character of Occupant Reflected in
the apartment.

Rome, July 12.-Many varying descriptions of
the room where Pope Leo lies have been given
The following account has been obtained from
one of the Pope's nephews who sees his uncle
daily
The room is large bright and airy and the
walls are hung with pale green and gold silk
damask. A large curtain divides the room and
is generally drawn open, showing the right
the modest, narrow. brass bed covered with
red damask cOverlet At the head of the bed
is a good picture of the Madonna, beside font
of holy water, while in the middle of the ada
cent wall IS an immense crucifix reaching from
floor to ceiling, with an ivory figure Of Christ
AT the foot of the bed stands a simple walnut
writing desk at which the Pope has written
the best of his Latin poems. On the other side
of the curtain stands the Pope's armchair, which
is most comfOrtable: a small! table a few
shelves holding chosen books, and nothing more
The chamber gives the idea of extreme Sim
plicity
Even in his present condition Pope Leo has
great objection to having people about him un-
less specially called so that except in the mo-
ments when he was much worse DR.. LappOni
and Pho Contra themselves could not enter un-
less he rang. Centra, who is most reluctant to
leave the room. asked this morning If the Pontiff
did not think it better to have some one always
TO keep him company. Pope Leo TRANQUILITY re-
piled: Il in good company" pointing to the
large crucifx.
Now and then the Pope suspects that some
thing is being concealed from him. go to-day
after the visit Of the doctors when a copy OF the
medical bulletin was brought in he read il at
tentively and then rang To Centra, who ap-
peared in response to the bell. he said abruptly:
Bring me another copy Of the bulletin empha-
sizing the word another" and evidently think
ing that the first one had been prepared for his
benefit, as had been done before. Centra brought

One OF the grea test difficulties is to prevc~.
the Pope from speaking too much. When some
one is allowed to visit him lie Immediately be
gins describing the satisfaction he felt at /
greetings he received on the occasion of the
last jubilee and also at the manifestations of
sympathy from all parts of the world during his
present illnesa which he considers almost provi-
Dental in strengthening the influence of the
Catholic Church in the person of its head Then
either the doctor or of his nephews steps
In and monopoIizes the conversation obliging
the Pope to be silent which he does not like at
all.
1t is wonderful what different impressions peo-
pie receive OF the POpe's condition, according to
their different temperaments. When Cardinals
Iarra.a Segna and CTetoni left the siclIrOom to-
eether Cardinal Ferrata, rubbing his hands to-
gether, said: The Holy Father is almost con-
yalescent We shall soon see him in the Vatican
gardens again" Cardinal Segna, making the
sign of the cross. sighed Our beloved POntiff
is lost" While Cardinal Cretoni shaking his
head in doubt, exclaimed, Who knows? He
may die; he may get better"

Il SCENE IN ST. PETERS,
German Monks, Mans and students
Prag for Pope's Recovery.

Rome, July 12-There was striking scene
in st. Peters tonight. In the midst or the
vespers the German students, all in scarlet cas-
socks, entered the cathedral. Behind them
came German friars, in rough haircloth cas-
socks, and then German nuns, In the blacK ana
white gowns of the convert. These formed q
procession and, kneeling first at one altar and
then at another prayed aloud and in silence for
Pope Lee. The congregation Joined in the pro-
cession until the basilica half circled by
the moving mass and when st. Peters tomb
was reached long lines followed the picture of
the Saviour held aloft by a monk.
On one side of the brass rails which guard
the entrance to the tomb knelt the nuns. Op
posite. three deep. were the shorn heads of the
friars. while in the centre knelt the young stu
dents. their scarlet cassocks making a blaze OF
color which stretched far down the dimly light
ed nave. For nearly hour no move or sound
came from those kneeng save every few sec
onds the hoarse. monotonous cry. Ora pro
nobis." The dIrgelike cadence of the cultural
German voices drowned the italian choir which
still sang the vespers from neighboring altar
The ceremony over, the Germans filed out their
heads still bent in prayer.
