B. E. HERBERT TALKS
 TO THE EDITORS
GIVES AN ACCOUNT TO THE CON- VENTlON AT OMAHA OF THE JOURNALISTIC ASSOCIATION OF ENGLAND.

Omaha, Neb, July 9.-B. B. Herbert Of the International Editorial association. today gave to the editorial convention an account of the journalistic association in England which has met great success. Its membership Is made up of employers, employees and students of journalism, banded together under the name of the "Institutive Journalists of England. One of its objects is the protection of it's members against libel suits and other difficulties to journalism. Out of the as- sociation has grown the Worlds Press Congress-" which will be held in St. Louis next year.
 MT. Herbert recommended that dele gate be appointed to represent the edi- toriaI association at that congress. and the suggestion was adopted.
 "Relations of the Newspaper to the State" was the subject of an address by F. c. Fancy of Fort Scott, Kan. He held the best service Is rendered to the state by the party paper which is independent when necessary.
 Edward Rosewater, who was to have given talk on 'The Ethics of Journal ism" yesterday, spoke today He criti- cized doctors and lawyers for seeking ad- vertising Tn newspapers The editor, he said erred and sinned rather by the things he suppressed than by what he published.
 The Editor and the Banker" by John A. . Selicher was read by Thomas P. Peters of the Brooklyn Times The paper was a defense of the Aldrich bill which It's ad- vocates hope to pilot through congress during the coming session.

give the negroes protection. The situa- ton is grave and may assume serious phases at any moment
 As the result of the shooting of Brake man Thompson of Houston by a negro at an early hour this morning, nearly all of the negroes have been driven from the Sour Lake oil fields. Tonight two camps of darkies, one in the Shoe String district of the oil fields and the other. composed of construction forces of the Southern Pacific were raided by mob of 800 men.
 The blacks lied precipitately and about one hundred shots were fired at them. It is not known whether any of them were killed or wounded, as the shooting was in the darkness. One of the Mexi- cans in the construction gang had his head beaten into a pulp and will die.
 Proprietors of hotels and restaurants were warned tonight to discharge all ne- groes in their employ at once, as they would no longer be tolerated in that field. About twenty-five negroes remain in Sour Lake. most of these being guard ed in one of the restaurants.

Houston. Tex. July s.-A Sour Lake. Tex. special to the Post says:
 Shortly before Il o'clock this morning word reached Sour Lake that a brake man of the Southern Pacific. Bud Thomp- son. had been shot and fatally wounded by negro at Nome Junction Thomp- son Is in hospital at Beaumont, where 1t Is said his condition Is critical. In- dignation was expressed at Sour Lake when this news was made public. Notices were posted in twenty-five or thirty con- spicuous places about town:
 Notice. Negro. don't let the sun go down on you in Sour Lake tonight" Many negroes hastily left the city. Over fifty left for Houston and Beau mont The exodus continues and many are walking out of town.

arranged. Following advices from the vatican, the cardinals throughout the world are hurrying toward Rome, anti cipating the holding of a conclave for the choice of a pope. These preparations are undertaken ina spirit of profound grief, as the performance of sacred duty.
 Courts Are Thronged.
 Throughout the day, the court of the vatican leading to the pope's apartments has been thronged with distinguished wis., itors seeking information as to the pope's condition. Practically the entire diplomat ic corps accredited to the vatican and many cardinals were among the inquirers.
 The popular solicitude for the pope's condition has led to an amelioration of the rigid rules closing the entrances. High and low, coming to ask about the pope's condition were equally admitted to the in- ner room. and bulletins signed by the doctors were conspicuously exhibited.
 One of the most remarkable features of the sick room is the absolute simplicity and the entire absence of the usual elab- crate equipments found in the sick room of distinguished patients. There are no trained nurses; the only attendants be- sides the doctors. being the pope's valet, Centra and Decastro. The doctors are without a corp of assistants. and there are none of the modern appliances for ameliorating the condition of patients.

CARDINALS ARE HURTING
 TO ROME FOR CONCLAVE
romA Parts of the World Messages Arrive at Vatican Telling of Their Departure-Cardna Gibbons Sails for Rome,
 and His Coming is Awaited With Much Interest.

Closkey, was also too late to participate as a secretary in the conclave, but Archbishop Farley took part in the cer- emony of Pope Leo's coronation, and through a singular coincidence his nomi- nation as archbishop of New York oc- cured at what was probably the pontiff's last conslstory.
 Qualification was expressed by the American prelates here on learning that Cardinal Gibbons had sailed for Rome today. As the conclave will not take place until at least ten days after the demise of the pope, Gibbons will arrive in ample time to participate. Cardinal Gibbons coming excites interest as he Is regarded as the representative of the modern pro- gressive spirit of the United States.
 It Is recognized that one of the chief issues at the conclave will be between the advocators of modern progress and the supporters of conservative tradi- tions.

NEW REGULATIONS APPROVED.
Creek Indians In Territory VIII Be
 Protected From Swlndlers.

Washington Tuly 9.-The secretary of the interior today approved new code of regulations for the sale of surplus land owned by Indians The new rules require that when an Indian who owns lands the sale of which Is permitted by law, de- sires to sell them, the fact shall be ad- vertised and the lands be appraised by an officer of the. United States govern ment. Sealed bids with certified checks enclosed are to be invited. and the lands sold to the highest bidder, provided his bid does not fall below the appraisal.
 The rules apply now only to the Creek Indians, in Indian Territory and they owe their origin to the fact that many of those Indians have been persuaded to part with valuable property for an entirely in- adequate consideration.

CARDINAL GIBBONS MAY

Rome, July g, P. M.-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 de- votes an article to Cardinal Gibbons, which ends as follows:
 "The partisans of Americanism have in the past often spoken of Cardinal Gib- bons as a possible successor to Leo XIII.

Weakness In N. Y. c. Stocks.

New York, July 9.-The extreme weak ness today of New York Central stocks, together with a further decline in the company's s1z per cent bonds, gave rise to all sorts of rumors. some of them high Iy improbable in the financial district. From seml-official source 1t was learned that within the next three months the directors will recommend an issue of new stock to pay for proposed terminal !m- provements in this city.

N ONE, July 9-The vatican has re- " ceived dispatches from all parts - of the world, from the cardinals abroad saying that they are leaving im- mediately for Rome. One of the most distant, Cardinal Moran, archbishop of Sydney, N. s. W. telegraphs that he sailed today. As he will travel half way round the globe. 1t is doubted whether he will be in time for the conclave
 Some hold that each cardinal has a right to demand the postponement of the conclave to permit him to reach Rome but 1t is dodbted whether the election of a pope will be deferred on account of any one cardinal. It Is recalled that the American cardinal McCloskey arrived too late to participate in the conclave which selected Pope Leo.
 It is an interesting fact that Archbishop Farley, then secretary to Cardinal Mo-

The new spar was used in her earlier trials at Weymouth, Eng, and will give an op- portunity for greater sail spread, which Designer Fife evidently desires after watching the new boats trial in the calm weather that has prevailed off Sandy Hook most of the time for the last ten days.
 Tomorrow both shamrocks will be taken into dry dock and cleaned and the un- der body of the challenger repainted.

He would not be a pope of the two American conti- Hents, or even an Americanist, but pope of the United States. against which would r.se 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 con- clave is held Cardinal Gibbons will be without influence. On the contrary, he will have power which will be exercised by him with wisdom in favor of candi- date who will agree with the state of mod ern civilization"
