entity of any action by these powers, the
United States government has pending with
China negotiations for a commercial treaty

equal terms with any other nation.
A couple of months ago came well-au-
thenticated reports from Picking that Rus
STA had made certain demands on China for
a treaty practically confirming Russian au-
thority in Manchuria. England, Japan and
the United States protested vigorously to
both China and Russia, and were met with
them all In doubt as to what Russia's eff

present the Russian ambassador is absent

Manchuria and China is in progress at Port

American fleets are near by at Tien-Tsin
The situation is a bit ominous, to say the
least, and the chances of American partici-
patton in the trouble, If trouble shall come,
are uncomfortably good.

NONENFORCEMENT OF LAW.

The question has been raised by an
Evansville lawyer of good standing as 10
how much the general nonenforcement of
recent riots. The Journal believes that
every right-thinking man will agree with
MIN that ii has had a very great deal to do
with it. Next to Terre Haute-which city,
by the way. had its own lynching party
by which the victim burned not so long
ago-Evansville has been known as the
widest open" city of the State. No atten-
ton whatever was paid by the authorities
to the State laws regulating liquor selling
or prohibiting gambling, further than to
collect money on liquor licenses. Saloons,
winerooms and gambling houses have had
full play. day and night, Sundays and holi-
days. From such state of affairs certain
logical results must and will flow, just as
certainly as night follows day. The people
that are vicious will be encouraged to
holiness in the pursuit of vice. People
that are not vicious will be taught the ways
Of vice and become vicious. particularly the
younger men and women AS vice grows
on vice, new forms will creep in, and the
corruption will extend to high places, until
the people are robbed not merely by ordi-
nary criminals but by their chosen officers.
And when city becomes generally vicious
and corrupt. general contempt for law
brings its crop of Socialists. Anarchists and
rioters.
There is no halfway place between right
and wrong in matters of law, any more
than there is in matters of religion. A COM
munity must choose whether it will live
under the reign of law or under that of
anarchy. 1t is more than dangerous for the
people Of city or town to say, 1--WE will
enforce this law because we think it right.
but we will not enforce that one because
we think it senseless and, wrong" Con-
tempt for one law quickly breeds contempt
for another. and the logical end of such a
beginning is riot and bloodshed, if the path
be Travelled far enough.

noon that although he did not yet dare TO
nope, he had perhaps ceased 10 despair.
This promising outlook. however, was fol-
lowed by the startling announcement that
the Pope had been attacked with Giarrhoea,
apparently caused by the large quantity OF
food he had taken, and that a consulting
physician had been sent for A.
The patient, when he began the day,
showed once more his iron, mountaineer
fiber, by rising and dressing almost with
out assistance, walking across the room
performed, even TO the detail of being
shaved. Throughout this procedure the
Pope showed no sign of being exhausted
Indeed, be jokingly alluded TO the amount
of nourishment which was being imposed
upon him and said: IT ought TO grow fat.
as 1 have never had in my life as much as
l get now
This buoyancy of spirit was considered
to be one OF the principal co-efficients in the
struggle with death that this admirable
old man has made in the last several days.
The doctors, previous TO the alarming at
tack OF this afternoon, said there was not
the slightest diminution of the acuteness
of the Pontiff's mental faculties, as was
shown this morning in remarkable man
ner. when the Pope insisted in going over
some Of the larger questions of church pol
icy laid before him by Cardinal Rampolla,
the cardinal secretary of state.
The Pope, on learning that Cardinal RAM
polla desired to see him, received the cardi-
nal at 10 o'clock this morning. The Pontin
said he had seen with great pleasure how
person, and he was equally gratiied at the
manifestations from the good people of
Rome. After this his Holiness spontane-
ously asked Cardinal Rampolla whether
there were any urgent affairs to deal with,
and the cardinal made short summary of
the principal pending questions. The Pope
interested himself in all of them, and the
conversation turned again to the Pontiffs
condition. He said: weakness has always
been my greatest preoccupation.
Dr. Lapponi. on leaving the Pope's bed
room at / o'clock this afternoon, said: Il
cannot yet say that hope. but no longer
despair
At about o'clock in the afternoon, al
though no worse, the Pope was not reported
to be any better, and then came the news
of the Pointiff's sudden relapse and of the
sending for a consulting physician. After
long conference In the night, 1t was decided
that in case the Pope grew worse there
should be consultation at which at least
one new doctor should be present. Both DR..
Mazzoni and DR.. Lapponi decided that un-
der such conditions a physician whom they
would prefer was Professor Rossoni, pupil
of DR.. Baceelli. and his successor in the
general clinic at Rome.

THE GOVERNORS ACTION.

The virtual ending OF the trouble at
Evansville furnishes an opportunity to say
that Governor Durbin's action in the mat
ter was altogether commendsble. When a
community. whether city, county State.
has an executive head who trifies with
emergencies or shirks his duty a a critical
time the whole community has TO suffer the
consequences and share in the disgrace. On
the other hand. when an executive officer,
whether sheriff. mayor or Governor. shows
himself equal to an emergency. prompt and
energetic in the discharge of a duty i'm
posed on him by law. the community shares
in the credit. In the present case Indian
ians are TO be congratulated on the fact
that the Governor was fully equal to a criti-
cal and threatening situation. If he had
followed the counsel Of some bad advisers
at Evansville the situation might have got
quite beyond control and in addition to a
greater loss Of life the State might have
suffered lasting disgrace from the inaction
of it's executive. Fortunately the Cover
nor's judgment and his clear appreciation
of the situation led him 10 act promptly
and vigorously. The result was an object
lesson in state authority which will not be
soon forgotten. Equally commendable was
the Governors action in countermanding
the arrangement for the removal of the
negro. Lee, from the State Reforma tory
10 Evansville and his trial there while
troops were guarding the courthouse. This
would have looked like railroading the de-
PENDANT to conviction under kind of mar
tial law, and would have been construed
as concession TO the mob. Lee should
be tried as soon as his condition and other
circumstances will permit, but it should
be done in an orderly and judicial way.
The Governor put the case well when he
said:
/ do not wish, by consenting 10 the pro-
gramme suggested, to confess to the world
that in the second city of Indiana the
courts may not conduct their procedure in
an orderly manner without the presence of
troops being necessary for the protection
OF those charged with the duty of admin
istering justice Nor do / desire to yield
an inch or to compromise for a moment
with the mob spirit.
Thus at every stage of the affair the
ton of the Governor was such as to merit
public approval

describe the sensation and emotion which
prevailed at the Vatican when his death
was announced.
From the moment he was stricken and
fell TO the floor Monsignor Folpini lost en-
tirely the power of speech and the use OF
the entire right side OF his body and he
was apparently unconscious when he died.
1t has been ascertained that the cause OF
death was cerebral congestion.
The death Of Monsignor Nolponi was care
fully kept from the Pope throughout the
day 1t was at first feared that IL would be
necessary to inform the Pontin in order
that Monsignor Volponi's successor TO the
office of secretary of the Consistory might
be nominated. but after discussion by the
Vatican authorities IL was decided that
the precedents admitted of nomination OF
q secretary without the Intervention OF
the Pope The chief Importance OF the
position is felt at the time of a conclave,
so that IL it is considered essential TO I'LL
Monsignor Volponi's place the Cardinal
Camerlengo will designate a secretary OF
the Consistory. This procedure Will permit
the news of Monsignor Nolponis death TO
be withheld from the Pope indefinitely.
The sarcastic humor Of the Romans re-
veals itself even at this solemn and sad
moment. The remark has been heard that
Pope Leo. not satisfied with having killed
all the cardinals created by his predecessor,
except Cardinal Oreglia. and over 100 OF
those created by himself. now begins TO kill
those TO be created by his successor.

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES.

The Democratic party will make its nomi
nation for mayor on July 25, and some Re-
publicans, dissatisfied with the administra
ton of Mayor Bookwalter, are looking for
ward to see if the Democrats shall nomi-
nate man they can support The most
potent causes of their dissatisfaction is
the impression they have gained that Mr..
Bookwalter has not enforced the laws
against illegal liquor selling and gambling
as thoroughly as they were enforced under
Mr.. Denny. the last Republican mayor Mr..
Bookwalter and his administration are not
nearly so bad in this particular as they
have been painted by the newspapers
opposed to them, but it is not necessary to
argue on that point, for the Republicans
referred to desire the same rigid enforce
ment Of these laws that was had under
Mr.. Denny.
Is it possible for them to attain this end
by voting the Democratic ticket? The
nomination will lie between two men. Mr.
Mccullough and Mr.. Hoffman The
Journal does not believe anybody questions
that Mr.. Holtzman. if he were to become
mayor. would give very much the same
sort of administration in regard to LIQUOR
selling and gambling and other things
wanted by the liberal element as was
given by Thomas Taggart. Mr. Holtz-
mans political record in the past and his
political affiliations in the present campaign
point Enthusiastically to this view
Of Mr.. McCulloughs views on this sub
ject the public has had no light until last
Wednesday night. when he made a speech
in the Eleventh ward, where there are a
great many Democrats of the liberal
stripe. He is quoted thus by an afternoon
paper:
Il am a good fellow; believe i'm per-
sonal liberty; am not Denny; / am not a
Prohibitionist; l am Democratic candi-
date for mayor: i want the nomination"
Mccullough told his hearers that he would
not give Denny administration
No matter who is mayor of Indian
apolis." said the candidate "a citizen will
get his drink on Sunday If he wants it,"
He pronounced prohibition dangerous and
proudly told when he was in the State Sem
ate. as representative from Gibson county.
he fought the prohibition amendment in
the State Constitution
With Mr.. Holtzman's well-known views
and the intentions of Mr.. Mccullough thus
expressed. it is difficult to see how any Re
publican desiring the enforcement of the
laws against illegal liquor selling can hope
for a desirable candidate from the Demo-
cratic convention. 1t is well also to bear
in mind that the man in the mayors chair
is seldom able to rise above the general
level of his party. even though he may de-
sire to. The administration of Mayor Sui
Ivan was a striking illustration of this
fact The general level of the Democratic
pressed by the SPECIAL plea made by Mr..
Mccullough to the Democrats of the
Eleventh ward.

NO AMERICAN POPE.
Spanish and Latin Cardinals Would
Not Support Gibbons.

ROME, July 9.-The Tribuna. which. since
the grave condition OF the health OF the
Pope became generally known. has been
publishing sketches of the cardinals who
are thought likely to become head OF the
church, tonight devotes an article to car
dinal Gibbons. which ends as follows:
THE partisans of Americanism have in the
past often spoken Of Cardinal Gibbons as a
possible successor TO Leo XIII. The idea
was for many reasons too daring to become
a reality; but 1t would not have appeared
altogether impossible without the Spanish
American war. which rendered Cardinal
Gibbons's position excessively delicate with
the Catholics and the remainder OF the
world He would not be a Pope of the two
American continents, or even an American
list, but Pope of the United States, against
which would rise the Spanish cardinals,
with all the prestige of their indisputable
loyalty to the apostolic see. and who would
have on their side the greater part of the
Latin cardinals. This does not mean that
in case a conclave is held Cardinal Glib
bons will be without influence. On the
contrary. he will have power which will be
exercised by him with wisdom in favor of
a candidate who will agree with the state
of modern civilization

ual sinking until the end came. How long
the sufferer may last, the doctors will not
venture any prediction. Ordinary calcula-
tions, they say, fail to apply to this extraor-
binary case. One of them remarked to-
day: Here is man almost a hundred
years old retaining all his mental and most
of his physical faculties and bravely COM
batting the approach of death. Although
the conditions change from hour to hour,
the essential conditions of mental alertness
and physical vigor continue unbroken. New
er yet has there been the slightest lapse
into incoherency"
PREPARATIONS FOR DEATH.
Whatever may be the outcome the Vatican
world has fully made up it's mind that the
demise of the Pope is only a question of
days at the most. and probably only of
hours. With this being the prevalent view
every detail for conducting the affairs Of
the church during the interregnum and for
carrying out the election of Pope Leo's sue
cessor is systematically arranging.
Following advices from the Vatican the
cardinals throughout the world are hurry
ing toward Rome. anticipating the holding
of a conclave for the choice of Pope
THESE preparations are undertaken in a
spirit of profound grief and as the perform
ance of sacred duty.
Throughout to-day the court of the Vati-
can leading to the Pope's apartments has
been thronged with distinguished visitors
seeking informal ton as to the Pope's condi-
ton. Practically the entire diplomatic
corps accredited to the Vatican and many
cardinals were among the inquirers. The
popular sOlicitude for the Popes condition
has led to an amelioration of the rigid rules
closing the entrances. High and low COM
ing to ask about the Pope's condition were
equally admitted to the inner court, where
the bulletins signed by the doctors were
cOnspicuously exhibited
One of the most remarkable features of
the sickroom is the absolute simplicity and
entire absence of the usual elaborate equip
ments found in the sckrooms of distin-
guished patients. There are no trained
nurses, the only attendants besides the doc
tors being the Popes Wallets Contra and De
Castro The doctors are without a corps
of assistants, and there is none of the mod
ern appliances for refrigera ton and other
means of ameliorating the condition of pa
tents.

CARDINALS EN- ROUTE.


Sections Of the Globe.
ROME, July 9-The Vatican has received
dispatches from all parts of the world from
the cardinals abroad saying that they are
leaving Immediately for Rome. One of the
most distant, Cardinal Moran, archbishop
of Sydney. n. s. W., telegraphs that he
sailed to-day. AS he travels halfway round
the globe it is doubted whether he will ar
rive in time for the conclave. Some au-
thorities hold that each cardinal has a
right to demand the postponement of the
conciave to permit him toVeach Rome, but
it is doubtful whether the selection of a
Pope will be deferred on account of any one
cardinal. 1t is recalled that the American
cardinal. McCloskey, arrived too late to
participate in the conclave which selected
Pope Leo. 1t is an interesting fact that
Archbishop Farley. then secretary to Gar
dlnal McCloskey, was too late TO partici-
pate as secretary in the conclave, but
Archbishop Farley took part i'm the cere-
mony OF Pope Leo's coronation. and
through a singular coincidence his nomina-
ton as archbishop OF New York occurred at
what was probably the PontifDs last con-
sistory.
Qualification was expressed by the Ameri-
can prelates here on learning that Cardinal
Gibbons had sailed to-day for Rome. AS
the conclave will not take place until at
least ten days after the demise of the Pope
