Rome, July ao.-Cardinal Logue,
archbishop Of Armagh, had an inter-
view today with Cardinal Gibbons.
When asked what he thought of the
objections frequently mentioned
against Cardinal Gotti being elected
pope on the ground that his being a
member of religious order would
prevent him from dealing in a broad
spirit with the problems in America
and Great Britain. Cardinal Logue
said to representative of the Asso-
ciated Press:
'"It is absurd. Cardinal Gotti was
formerly internuncio and has mixed
representatives OF the various powers.
He knows the prevailing conditions as
we'll as anybody. Just because he is a
Carmelite 1t does not follow that he is
narrow-minded. Moreover, 1t Is unrea-
sonable to ttrihstc too much weight to
the personality of tire new pope. Inter
national matters and internal policy
are now almost Invariably settled by
committees of cardinals, who, certain
ly under the late Pope Leo, have direc-
ted their departments Just as much as
the heads of departments of a civil gov
ernment directs their departments.
But, whoever may be pope, it Is not
likely that he will attempt to make
any changes in policy without being
careful to take the advice OF those
which have heretofore d.
rectd the policy of the vatican"

Scheme on Foot to Put the Producers
 In Combination.

Chicago, H., August 19.-Plans for combining farmers, fruit growers, dairymen and all other producers of natural food products into one na- tional organization were considered at conference today between represent atiyes of several farmer cooperative associations. This movement. has for it's purpose the maintaining of prices, the control of distribution of products ana the saving of large sums of money paid in commissions.
 The plan under consideration con templates the erection of grain ele- vators and cold storage warehouses in all parts of the country. It was de- cided to hold a farmers convention at the Grand Pacific hotel in Chicago on September to consider detailed plans of organization. The call is signed by Robert Lindbloom, president of the Farmers National Cooperative ex- change, Chicago; J. A. Eyeritt, presi- dent of the American Society of Equity, Indianapolis, afd D. L.

POWERS PREPARE
 FOR PROBABLE WAR
KING OF RouMANlA AND EM.
 PEHoR FRANCIS JOSEPH OF
 AueTHiA REACT AN AGREEMENT ON PROTECTION IN BALKANS.

Sofia Bulgaria, Aug. 1e.--rhe "vedo- mostl," tho organ of the Kieff party. dis- eussing the situation In Bulgaria in the event of a war with Turkey. says at the recent visit of the king of Roumania to Emperor Francis Joseph the monarchs arrived at an agreement that In the event of such a war Roumania would mobilize her army and occupy the triangular ter- ritory between Ruschuk, Varna and sil- istria, including these towns. in order to maintain the equilibrium of power in the Balkans in the event ot Macedonia be- coming an autonomous province which would otherwise give Bulgaria too pre- dominating importance in the peninsu- lar.
 The Vedomosti points out the isolated position that Bulgaria occupies. Austria, 1t says, Is determined to repress the Slav power while Russia has no confidence in Prince Ferdinand and France is backing Russia. Now is the most crucial mo- ment in Bulgaria's affairs, and Prince Ferdinpnd is away. But he is German, remarks the Vedomosti without any sympathy with the Slav.
 The revolutionary "Autonomic" says the insurgents captured near Resen, a Turkish courier who was carrying im- portant orders.
