Rome, Aug. 7.-During one full hour
of the morning there seemed to be
nothing but vibrating sounds, so pene
trating were the strokes Of, the bells
of about 500 churches, which, all ring
ing together, absorbed all other noises.
The ringing was in honor of the cleo
tion of Plus X.-a welcome unique of
it's kind-ordered by Cardinal Res
phigi, vicar of Rome, who issued spe-
cial instructions therefor All the
churches contemporaneously celebrat-
ed masses for the event, the intoning
of the 'Oremus" combining with the
harmony. The bells involuntarily
served another purpose, that of ring
ing in the great ceremony of the re-
ception of the diplomatic body ac-
credited to the holy see.
The members of the sacred college
gathered before the hour set for the
ceremony and held kind of informal
reception, the conclave, short as it
was, having brought them cordially
together. "A procession was then
formed. First came the Swiss guards,

The pope, in spotless white, his grey

guard. The procession having gained
the hall of the throneroom where the
members Of the diplomatic body were
gathered, Senor d'Antas, the Portu-
guese ambassador and dean of the
corps, read in a clear voice the col

the diplomats, the new pontiff being
credited with taking small interest in
affairs outside Italy. 1t was another
to them to hear him speak
French, If not fuently, at least with a
certain readiness. Altogether the
whole audience gave promise of a new
era of international cordiality at the
Vatican.

MANY NEW ROUTES.
Postoffice Department Busy Extending
Rural Delivery.

Washington, Aug. 7.-During the
first thirty days OF the present fiscal
year the postoffice department estab-
lished 2,455 rural free delivery routes.
The total number of routes established
for the entire fiscal year that ended
on June 80, 1903, was 5,644, conse
quently nearly one-half as many routes
have been established since July 1 as
were established during the previous
twelve months.
This is largely due, however, to the
fact that the appropriation of 1902 was
exhausted several months before the
close of the fiscal year and, while the
work of mapping out the routes went
on as before, none was established
after the funds ran out

robbers removed the safe from the
bar of the Washington hotel formerly
the Denny and rolled it down the side
of the steep hill on which the hotel is
situated into Stewart street. Passers-
by, including street car men going to
work, saw the men, but paid no atten-
tion to them. The robbers drilled the
safe and planted dynamite and stepped
out of harms way. Several persons
stopped within 100 yards to look at the
safe lying in the street and the posi-
bility of safe cracking was suggested.
While they were looking the safe ex-
ploded. People came running from all
directions. The safe crackers made
dash for the safe to get it's contents,
but were frightened by people who
came running down from the Washing
ton hotel and left the $500 which it
contained,

he lectured at. the Chautauqua, was
the guest for two hours OF John w.
Bookwalter. Bryan, following the con-
ference, said:
Mr.. Bookwalter is one of the best
and most ardent Democrats in the
country. We had an enjoyable confer
ence, devoted wholly to a discussion
of political policies. l am more con-
vinced than ever that he is dyed in

1T is too early yet to talk definitely
about the presidential nominee. We
have the congressional elections to
take our time and attention next. 1t
seems to me that Mr.. Bookwalter
would make suitable candidate. He
is a farmer and a business man. One

Seoul, Korea, Aug. An agreement
has practically been concluded be-
tween Russia and Korea whereby Rus
sia acquires 200 acres of land at Yon-
gampho, on the Yalu river, on nine
ty-nine years lease.
The application of M. Pavloff, the
Russian minister. for permission to
erect a telegraph and telephone line
to Yongampho has been refused.
The extension to the northward of
the Seoul-Wiju railway is progressing.
Previous dispatches said work on
the Russian telegraph line between
Autung and Yongampho had been
abandoned in consequence of Korean
remonstrances. Thereupon M. Paw
loft objected to the Japanese telegraph
line from Seoul to FNsen, which was
constructed prior to the Russian line.
The Korean government asked the
Japanese minister to have the line re-
moved, but the minister declined to
do SO.

Manila, Aug. THE effort Of the
United States government to introduce
it's new currency into the Philippine
islands has not met with the success
that was anticipated. Although a
large quantity of the coins minted at
San Francisco have reached the ISL

against their use, especially in the
provinces. The bankers of Manila,
having become convinced of the neces,
sity of action in the matter, held a
conference with Governor Taft, who,
after a full discussion, promised to
render all the aid in his power to se-
cure the acceptance of the American
peso as the standard of value and the
general use of the new coins.
Fifty ladrones, who were implicated
in the recent raids near Surigao, in the
province of Mindanao, have been SEN

HOUSE AND SENATE
DIFFER WIDELY
Former Will Not Entertain Ad-
journment Proposition Till
Senate Dlsposes of Cuba.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 25.-Un-
til the senate either passes the Cuban
bill or rejects that measure, no propo-
sition to adjourn the extra session Of
the fifty eighth congress will be en-
tertained by the house. This is the de-
clared position of the leaders of that
body and indicates no change in the
position of the stand taken by Speaker
Cannon and his colleagues on this
matter. AS this fact has become un-
derstood by the leaders of the senate
there is likely to be no effort made by
that body to bring the extra session to
an end until it lapses into the regular
session, Dec. Z.
Speaker Cannon is making all pos
sible speed in the organization Of the
house. The committee announcements
are looked for Monday next. With the
committees appointed, there need be
no lack of work in the house. Several
thousand bills have been presented at
the present session and these will be
available for committee consideration,
and when reported On for the consid-
GRAFTON Of the house. The estimates
from the various executive depart.
ments of the government, while
not officially available until the con-
vening Of the regular session, are be-
Ing referred to unoff1cially and the
necessary preliminary work on them
may be taken UP.
In taking their stand against the ad-
journment of the extra session until
the Cuban legislation Is disposed of,
house leaders declare that they are
simply emphasizing the purpose for
which the session was called, are act
ing in good faith and with no disposi-
ton to reflect In any way upon the
senate.
On the senate side 1t Is said that the
agreement to fix time for a vote in
sures the passage of the Cuban bill,
but that notwithstanding that fact, no
proposition for final adjournment of
the extra session will emanate from
the senate. All such resolutions have
heretofore originated in the house and
the senate does not wish to break that
unWritten law.

tumble today and as result a COM
bination formed to boost prices came
to grief. For several days dealers have
been asking 20 cents wholesale and
grocers from 23 and 26 cents retail.
There was no scarcity of turkeys, the
number, in fact, being larger than for
several years. For all that it was not
possible until late this afternoon to
buy a turkey at less than % cents
pound.
The public refused to pay the prices
demanded, and as result, there was
strong bear movement late in the day.
Prices broke to 18 cents, and at 7
o'clock this evening turkeys held in the
morning at 25 cents at retail could be
purchased for II cents. 1t is said by
dealers that sales of turkeys today
were about one-fourth of the usual
number sold on the day Immediately
preceding Thanksgiving last year.

There was romantic.:We wedding on the
football field at Glenwood, Pa, when
Miss Marie Louise Adams, of St. Paul.
and Arthur Wilson, captain of the foot
ball team We're made man and wife.
The wedding was the elimination of a
very exciting contest. The rivalry be-
tween the two teams had run high and
Miss Adams had promised to wed Will
son Immediately after the game If he
won. Otherwise he was to wait q
year.
The agreement was supposed to be a
secret, but it leaked out and added zest
to the contest. A hundred-yard dash
of Capt. Wilson was the material point
on which the game was won and Miss
Adams lived up to her part Of the
agreement.
She stepped out on the gridiron be-
fore the cheering throng, where a min
lister was waiting, and the knot was
quickly tied. A wedding supper was
served to members of both teams at the
hotel, and Mrs. Wilson was showered
with unique wedding presents.
