Additional American Cardinals.

Rome, May 25.-Pope Leo speaking
today of the possible cardinals said that
Americans may get two additional places
in the Sacred College. 1t is thought
probable that the Pope means to give the
red hat to Archbishop Chapelle for his
work in Cuba and Porto Rico and that
another American archbishop will be
made cardinal when the vexatiOns re-
ligiOus question is settled in the Philip

occasioning some uneasiness hereabouts,
has been broken during the past forty

in some instances hail has accompanied

JUMPED FROM BROOKLYN BRIDGE
While flags were being raised ON the
Brooklyn Bridge yesterday in celebration
of the twentienth anniversary off its open
ing, an unknown man, sitting in an open
car, suddenly alighted when the car was
in the middle of the center span, and
running to the side of the bridge, jumped
into the river. He threw his hat in the
face of a fireman who tried to seize him
as he stood poised on the edge Of the
trestlework, and then dived head first,
holding lighted cigar between his teeth.
1t was clear that he knew the twentieth
anniversary of the opening OF the bridge
was being celebrated, for the passengers
sitting near him talked aloud OF the
raising of the flags on the towers. The
conductor stopped the car, and all the
passengers ran to the side of the bridge,
and saw the mans body turning over
and over as it fell to the water. The
body sank, but rose again in a moment.
The tide was running out, and the body,
face upward, was swept away by the cur
rent. Two policemen started out in
boat 20 pick up the body, but by the
time they got their boat launched the
victim had been lost in the river near
Governors Island.

The third days session of the
Southern, Presbyterian General AS
sembly at Lexington, Va, was
called to order Saturday by Moderator
DR.. Hopkins, and opened with prayer
by Rev. DIR. A. S. Mofiett, of Lebanon,
Ky. Rev. J. l.. Caldwell, of Pine

Confederate Veterans to participate in
the memorial exercises was accepted, af-
ter which the assembly took a recess

slight shock on Saturday. A resolu-

motion to refer heresolution to the COM
mittee on correspondence was lost and it
was finally adopted by aunanimous vote.

The Fifteenth Amendment.

Some newspapers and some cor
respondents of ours misunderstood
the effect of repeal of the tif-
icenth amendment upon negro
suffrage in this country. They
assume that the repeal of the tif-
teenth amendment would render
every negro in every State inelig-
ible 10 be a voter: that il would
AXE the ballot away from the AT
rican race and keep it away.
OF course, this is mistake. The
repeal of the fifteenth amendment
would return TO the several States
the full power to prescribe the
qualifications of their voters. The
repeal would enable any State to
do lawfully what Il now done in
some States in spite OF the amend
ment and in defiance OF the spirit,
if not the letter. of the constitu-
ton
No Northern State where public
sentiment was satisfied with the
results of negro suffrage would be
compelled by the repeal of the tif-
teenth amendment 70 abolish ne
gro suffrage. The State could
continue to admit its black citizens
along with It's white citizens TO the
polls
No Southern State that desired
70 permit negro suffrage as soon
and as fast as the black citizens
proved themselves competent to
handle the ballot would be pre-
vented from so doing.
\ condition of things where
some States admitted male negroes
20 the polls and other States de-
nied them the privilege OF voting
would be no more anomalous than
is the system of suffrage whereby
white female citizens now exercise
the franchise in some States and
are denied the privilege in others.
Furthermore, the repeal OF the
amendment would relieve
the Supreme Court of the United
States from a position most dlffl-
cult and EN- barrassing in the case
Of those Justices who believe In
guessing at resuItants. New \ DIRK
