Vatican Hopes for Peaceful Results n
the Philippines.

Rome, Dec. 1.-THE vatican expects that
the actions of the American bishops sent
to the Philippines together with the work
which Archbishop Buidi. the apostolis
delegate for the Philippine islands has
already accomplished, VII soon have the
effect of definitely pac ry-ng the natives
and putting an end TO the schisn of
Bishop Aglipay. the head Of the new
National church of the islands; also
rendering it necessary TO create new
dioceses, partly owing to the distances in
the islands and partly because the re-
construction of the Whole system OF pub
lie worship is necessary.

HERR eEBEL SAYS
Discussion in the Reichstag Was Of
Great interest.

Berlin. Dec l5.-In the relefS;ag today
The proceedings developed an oraterieai
aspect between Herr BEisel. the leader OF
the Socialist party. and Count Won Rse-
low. the imperial chancellor. which was

in legislation, the socialized state OF the
future.
: Herr Bebel returned to his attack upon
Russia, speaking of the alleged atroci-
ties perpetrated in that country, where
upon he was called to order by Count
Won Buelcw, president of the reichstag,
who said: 1T is inadnissable to call
into speech in the reichstag the action
of a country's own laws
Then if we cannot express our opin-
ions fully replied Herr Bebel. we viii
merely state the facts in a question and
let the world decide
5 Continuing. Herr Bebei said: You
shall hear from Us within the next few
weeks a series of facts abont which we
have information. but of which you have
not had the slightest suspicion
The speaker then answered Chancellor
Won Buefow's speech OF last Thursday.
He declared the chancellor went too far
in discussing foreign affairs when he
referred in terms of sharp criticism to the
United States government and condemn
ing the American campaign in the Phil
ippines.
Herr BebeI expressed his astonishment
that Count Won Buelow had called him
an angel and, turning to the chancel-
lor. said:
If you will call me devil, I shall be
ten times more pleased.
Count Won -,Buelow then answered Herr
Bebel's reiterated criticisms of the gov
ernment's policy in East Africa, saying:
I'VE want to retain what We Mold and
do not want to meddle with things that
do not concern us"
Count Won Buelow then accused the
Socialists of lacking in those qualities
which are usually regarded as charac-
teristic of the German people-namely,
tenderness of feeling and reverence"
The Socialistic agitation. he said, lacks
spirit and humor. The chancellor quoted
a letter written by Herbert Spencer
shortly before his death to a French
friend, in which the famous philosopher
said that as a result of his eighty years
of observation it was his beliefe that the
triumph of Socialism would be the great
est disaster that could befali civilization,
and that If it triumphed it would soon be
displaced by a military dictatorship.
Il do not believe that Socialism Will
triumph said the chancellor, land
am convinced that the common sense of
the German people, the solidity of our
institutions, the patriotism of all civil
parties and the intelligence and decision
of the crown and its advisers will ward
Off such a disaster. but if you should
continue then there would happen what
Herbert Spencer predicted, and the pres
ent order of things would give place to
a most savage and brutal reign of
sword"
General Won Eienm. Pressian minister OF
war, took up Herr Bebers remarks re-
garding the maltreatment of soldiers and
promised that these evils should be abol-
ished.
These are mere words said the min
lister, but deeds soon follow and we may

St Louis. Dec. 15.-Miss Helen Gould
today notified her friends among the
board o lady managers of the worlds
fair that under no circumstances could

Manning would be chosen.

Victoria, 3. c., Dec. 15-Lord Dundon-

turned from Port Simpson and vicinity
on the government steamer Quadra to-
day, where he went TO look over the
situation with respect to the report that
the United States intended to fortify
SitlSan and Kannaghui islands. He Wis
tied both islands and also Pease and
Wales islands, which were both awarded
to Canada. He declined to talk of his
visit, but from others in the party it is
learned that he regards Sitkan and Kan
naghui islands as unable TO dominate
Port Simpson if fortified. Vessels pass
close to these islands entering Port Simp-
son, but Wales island is so much higher
that a fort there would make any forti-
fication on the United States islands un-

methodical deliberation. The sher-
if and his deput es were bound and
confined. Clitton's cries were sti.
fed with gag. He was bound
hand and foot and was roughly
dragged to the scene of execution.
The commands of the mob's leader
were given quietly, and none of the
towns people was aroused by the
lynching.
John W. Church and wife, who
lived on a homestead claim. rs
miles southwest of Newcastle, were
never seen alive af'er March IA
last. Clifton, whose ranch adj ,ined
Cnurch's, was arrest I'd April on
sus picion, and on April II he con-
fessed that he had killed Mr.. and
Mrs. Church. Their bodies were
found at the place indicated by
him. Clifton alleged that he bad
killed the couple in self-defense.
He had given Church bill of saie
covert G psrsopal property to Sc
cure payment of $500 advanced to
him by Church. He said that he
had repaid this cum and obtained
the bill of sale, and that Mrs.
Church had then threatened him
with a. six-sho tier. demanding a
return Of the papers. He shot her,
he admitted and, being attacked by
her husband, killed him, too. This
story was discredited, as Mrs.
Chu CD was slender little woman,
only % years of age.
Church was formerly stenogra
pher in thg Union Pacific Office in
Omaha. About year ago Church
and Clifton made an agreement to
go into the cattle business together.
When the body of Clifton was re-
moved from under the bridge to-
day. the following message was
found pinned to his coat:

The buyer has been for many years
a resident of Oregon, and halls from
the vicinity of Portland.
Mr.. Moore bought the farm four
years ago for SIS, 600. Though he
has added various improvements to
the place, the advance in the price
of land has left him handsome
profit for his enterprise. He is in
the market for another farm, and
will buy whenever one can be found
to his liking. ST do not intend to
