VATICAN WILL PARTICIPATE.
Pope to Send Cardinal to st. Louis Ex-
position.

ROME. September 2s-The negotiations
for the participation of the Vatican in the
ST. Louis exposition are proceeding salts
factorily. 1t is considered preferable that
the holy see shall send as it's representative
an important cardinal of the curia.
The chief difficulty is that the traditions
and etiquette of the Vatican are against
sending cardinals. except ablegates, to for
eign countries. and they are never sent to
expositions or fairs. The difficulty will
probably be overcome by sending a cardinal
to America in connection with church af.
fairs. and he will afterward proceed to ST.
Louis, thus paying to the United States
the papacy's highest tribute.

CARTER CHARGES coNsPmAcY.
Claims That He Was Victim Of Gay
nor and Greene.

It is stated that Oberlin A. Carter, for
merly captain of engineers in the army,
will be used as a government witness
against Greene and Gaynor If they be ex-
tradited from Canada. Capt. Carter will be
released from the military prison at Fort
Leavenworth, Kan, November q next.
The announcement that Captain Carter
intends to try to recover from the govern
ment $3.50. 900 worth of property seized after
he was convicted on a charge of embezzle-
ment has brought to light a sensational
declaration from Carter that he was made
a victim of a conspiracy by Greene and
Gaynor. and as soon as he obtains his
freedom he intends to prove that he was
not the principal offender against the gov
ernment in the Savannah harbor cases. The
powerful political. social and financial in
terests which defended Carter at his trial
are again actively at work in his behalf.

The different phases of the problem, such
as the protection by the advance guard of
its own flank in country offering good
cover to an attacking force: the protection
from a rush in the open by mounted in

THE KINGS TOUR.

King Edward and the pope have met.
The reception to the British sovereign,
by the aged pontlf. was most cordial.
What the subject Of their conversation
was, when alone. the dispatches do not
say but II Is evident that the inter-
vir6 gave both the exalted participants
much pleasure and satisfaction, for the
parting was as cordial as the first
greetlng,
Naturally, some speculation Is in
duged In as to the political import of
the Journey Of the King. Possibly there
IS no such Significance attached to It.
Kings, as other mortals. desire at times
TO pass time travelling They Ike TO see
friends, TO visit foreign places, and have
change OF air and occupation. And
II Is possible that King Edwards Jour
ney has no other object But II It has,
II Is not improbable that this must be
sought in the French capital particular

The Intention OF the King Is II is
said, to return home 10y the way Of
Paris, and there Is even talk Of Presl-
dent Lorbet returning the call by visit
ing London. It looks as II France wee
trying to find In Great Britain a new

OF the Channel squadron was recently
sent all the way to Alglers TO part,cl-
pate IN demonstration In honor Of the
president OF the French republic. The
Paris press is friendly and the love-
making Of the British press Is very
plain. All this may be taken az an In
dication that old enemies are becoming
friends, and that alliances are being
formed on new lines Italy, as a special
friend OF Great Britain. would be d.
rectly interested In a Impeachment
between England and France. Hence
the visit to Rome.
European statesmen look forward TO
the demise Of the aged emperor OF
Austria, as the beginning OF the disln-
tegraton Of the dual, polyglot empire.
But In such an event, Germany would
most surely endeavor to absorb the
German-speaklng part down to the
Adrlatic sea. Here, however. Italy
'gould be encountered. Great Britain
and France would support Italy IN her
protest against a strong German estab-
lishment In the Mediterranean. An un-
derstanding between Great Britain,
France and Italy in the eyentuallty OF
a political cataclysm in the Austrian
empire would seem TO be demanded
