AusTRIANs BLAME SEC. SHAW.
Austrian Manufacturers Advance tn,
Price Of Shoes.

Vienna, Dec. 27.-The Austrian
manufacturers have decided to ad
vance the price Of shoes 10 per cent
on account of the higher cost of leath-
or. They claim the step is due to the
extensive purchases Of hides in the
European markets by Americans who
have practically cleaned out the Con.
tinental stocks. The Austrians also
profess to see increased danger to the
European shoe industry from America
owing to the United States govern
ment refunding SO per cent of the tar
in ON raw articles when manufactured
and exported. They claim that this
procedure is too greatly facilitated by
Secretary Shaw's order admitting
proof of identity by simple declaration
instead OF by affidavit.

Today's New York World.
Rv the Associated Press

New York, May 9.-The New York
World will issue tomorrow an edition of
1876 pages, said to be the largest paper ever
printed to mark its twentieth anniversary
under Mr.. Pulitzer's management. Among
the contributions is the following tribute
to American newspapers, written by James
Brewer on the Effect of a Free Press
on American Life" First the effect the
press has had on the recent advance In
American life has been in realizing the con-
stitutional purpose to form a more perfect
union. Forty years ago bitter civil war
prevailed. North and South were enemies.
Now sectional animosities are disappearing
patriotism is becoming universal The
North eulogizes Lee-the South venerates
Lincoln New York respects Bryan
South Carolina honors Senator Hoar. We
may hate those we know-we never love
those we do not know. So by bringing
the American people into more intimate
acquaintance the press has been making
more perfect union.
Second. In graphing with social condi-
tions and questions The nation is wrest-
ling with these problems. The press in
forms of and inspires every effort.
Third. In the evolution of the court
of public opinion, the court mightier than
any organized tribunal, at whose bar are
judged all men, events and purposes
Here the press does mighty work. May it
continue it's work, promoting national
unity, Fastening solution of the great So
cial problems, and bringing all matters be-
fore the court of public opinion, court
of increasing wisdom and power"

pastor, and the second, known as the Cal

formerly of Texas, is the pastor The Fl -
church is composed of Cuban membership
exclusively. But it is allowed by the con.
vention to worship in the building, which
the convention owns. The convention has

mony with the convention, and after Jan
uary 1, 1904, will have exclusive use Of the
church edifice now used jointly by both
churches.
"Dr. Diaz is no longer in the employ of
the convention"
There was trouble between Diaz and the
convention because Of funds entrusted to
the Cuban that the home mission board
claimed he would not account for.
DR.. Diaz also made claim for back sal
airy that amounted to more than $4,000,
that the board did not look favorably
upon.
The whole Diaz matter for quite awhile
was the sensation of the hour. 1t appears
not to have downed yet. 1t will prob
ably come in for some discussion before
the convention is over, because of the fl
