In an interview on the development Of the
Southwest, b. F. Yoaku1n. president of the
Frisco said:
Men in New York seem unable to under
stand the development of the Southwest
and the reason for its continuance. They
look askance at the increase in riil-cad

faithful crowded ST. Peters to-day to pay
tribute h =" re the sarcophagus containing
the remains of the late pont:f, on which is
the following simple inscription in gilded
letters: Leo XIII, Pont. Max"
Meanwhile requiem masses continued in

many other Roman churches.

Some of the Italian bookmakers here pro-
posed TO conduct public betting on the
chances of the papal candidates, and in or

donate their gains to charitable institutions.
The Government, however. promptly re-
fused the request.
AT the sixth meeting of the Congregation
of Cardinals. held to-tay, forty-five Cardi-
mails were present. Cardinal Della Volpe,
voicing also the opinions of some of his col
leagues, criticised the ceremonies In connec-

THINKS CONCLAVE WILL BE BRIEF.
The ceremonial note in the Conclave es-
tablished by Gregory XIV is to be followed
at the coming meeting. The Cardinals
have decided that during the Conclave they
will eat in common in order to facilitate
their work.
A local paper quotes the response Of
Cardinal Svampa to a question as to
whether he believed the Conclave would be
of lengthy duration, as follows:
ION the contrary. think it will be very
short. l believe that two days will suffice
to reach an agreement
Another paper quotes Mgr. Francisco Nava
as TO the possibility of the election of a
Pope who would reconcile the Vatican and
the Quirinal thus:
No Pope ever hated Italy. The Govern

fnronds Made In Revenue of Lines rs
shown by Net Earnings.

According to figures compiled by the rail-
roads throughout the United States, the cost
of fuel. supplies and labor has greatly ir-
creased this year and as result has made
considerable inroads into the earnings of the
roads.
On one large system it is estimated that
the increase in the cost under this heal
ranges from % to IS per cent.
The returns Of ninety-seven companies re-
porting gross and net earnings for the elev-
en- months ended May 81 show an increase
in gross earnings of g. +3 per cent and of 3.iS
per cent il net receipts.
1t is believed that the relative small in
crease in net earnings is due to the marked
plies.

THE PEOPLES WILL.
CMAryiand Republican,

Maryland Republican,
We listened very attentiyely to Mr..
Rayner's speech OF last Tuesday and
later read it in print. Ii is agood speech
and there is nothing in it to which every
one cannot subscribe. 1t is a speech OF
platitudes in which we all believe. Who
does not believe in the people and the
rule of the people? He who does not, is
not a good citizen OF the Republic. But
where we differ with Mr.. Rayner is in
the mode of ascertaining the peoples
will. He thinks that the peoples will is
evidenced by meetings like that OF Tues
day, by few letters published in news
papers and by petitions signed upon and
after solicitation. We differ with him.
The Democratic party OF Maryland has
good cause to dread the taking OF the
voice OF the people in this way. 1t tried
it once and repented of its folly in de-
feat. Al State convention, held after
primaries which voiced the will Of the
people, it promised q new assessment.
The Legislature passed a Dill for new
assessment, but the bin did not become
a law because just the same methods
which Mr.. Rayner lie now pursuing were
used to impress the Executive with the
idea that the people were against the
new assessment. Public meetings, let
tsrs and kilograms galore We're used to
impress the Executive with the idea
that the people did not want the assess
ment. He was impressed. The peoples
will thus found prevailed. At the next
election the Democratic party of Mary
land went down in defeat The party,
thereiore. has good cause TO doubt and
fear this method Of finding out the peo-
ple's will. 1t has been proved to be I'M
reliable, unsafe and iraught with danger
and disaster.

SENATOR HoAR's RESOLUTION


Criticism of the Presidents Panama
policy il not confined to the Democratic
party. Senator Hoar, senior Republican
Senator from Massachusetts,, has intro
duced a resolution in the upper branch OF
Congress, asking for all the Information
In the Presidents possession regarding
the establishment OF the republic of Pan
anna. The resolution requests the Presi-
dent, unless in his Judgment it is incom-
patible with the public interest, to send
to the Senate all facts in his possession
which will show, whether at the time OF
the ratification of the treaty the province
of Panama had successfully established
it's independence, had lawfully adopted
constitution, and had given authority to
the persons with whom treaty purports
20 have made. to negotiate and ratity the
same: whether the officials ratifying the
treaty had any personal or private in-
terests in the construction OF the canal;
whether the constitution OF the republic
of Colombia authorized the secession OF
Panama: whether Colombia was prevent
ed by the United States from attempting
TO assert it's authority over the Isthmus;
nc what time news of the revolution In
Panama was received by the United
States government and lastly whether
any information was received oil an ex-
pected or intended revolution before it
secured and the date fsueh information.
The Republican senator's win no doubt
prevent tie passage of the resolution, as
il is believed here that the Senator's en-
barrassing questions are q severe ar
raignment of the course of the admins
tration in Panama.
