At a meeting of the citizens Of Fort
Adams, held a few days ago, it was de-
cided TO incorporate the town, the
requisite. number of residents having
been secured to take such action
Messrs. Ralph Gunst, Q. NJ. Stricken
and Henry Harris were appointed a
committee to take the proper steps
for the Incorporation Of the town.
This action is due to the passage of
the law prohibiting the sale OF whis-
key in towns of less than five hundred
inhabitants, which law closed the sa-
looms in Fort Adams. The merchants
claim their business has been injured
very materially by the removal Of the
liquor, hence their desision to incor-
pOrate.

NEW YORK, June 9.-The delegates from

meeting of the Board of Building Trades
because that body refused to expel the
Material Drivers union and thus end the
building strike took steps today to form
an independent central labor organization.
AS soon as this Is completed II is ex-

men return to work.
The executive committee of the Lumber

ers In Masons' Building Materials and the
New York Truck Owners association de-
cided today after a six-hours conference
with the committee of the members of the
United Board of Building Trades, to open
their yards for the delivery of material

view TO putting an end TO the building
strike and the strike of the material

The expedition enjoyed good health and
there was no sickness, accident or death
among its members. Prof. Drygalsld speaks
in the highest terms OF the vessel. both at

COULD AFTER PENNSYLVANIA
Anonymous Finanoisrs Make Big Offer for
New Railroad Bonds
WALL STREET RUMoRs NAME PARTIES
&c VIII Mean outlet to East for
estern Roads, Ending strained
Relations in Transport
tation Circles.

NEW YORK, June 9.-An offer has been
made to the syndicate which has agreed
to underwrite the S75,OOOOOO new Pennsyl-
vania railroad stock at 12O by an important
financial interest to take over any or all
of the stock that may come into the syn
dicates possession.
In fact, it is asserted that this financial
interest is ready to take all the new stock.
1t is intimated that with its present hold
ings the possession Of the new stock would
probably carry control of that potential
property.
The identity of the interest which seeks
control of the Pennsylvania is not disclosed,
but rumor has for some time attributed
such a desire to a group of powerful finan-
ciers including the Rockefeller interests in
combination with the Goulds. 1t Is further
stated that the proposed purchasers have
offered to take the stock at a fixed percent
age over the syndicate price.
The possibilities Of such a deal, involving
a change of Pennsylvania control. have
been frequently discussed lately in Wall
street, where It is thought a return of
normal conditions will reveal some decided
changes in railroad ownership.
1t has been suggested that the acquisition
of an influential voice in Pennsylvania by
Rockefeller-Gould interests would put an
end to the strained relations that have so
long existed between the most important
railroad interests in the country. inasmuch
as 1t would give the Goulds a much desired
outlet to the Atlantic seaboard.

The Vatican hopes a change Will occur
by France modifying the situation. II no
change takes place the idea prevails that
NJ. Loubet will not ask to see the pope,
thus avoiding a refusal, which would
necessarily bring about a rupture between
France and the Vatican.
The authorities believe that by NJ. Loubet

present status of the relations between the
church and the French republic would be
maintained
The pope today received 800 pilgrims VINO

audience lasted twenty minutes.
Only dozen leaders of the pilgrlmase
were permitted to kiss the hand OF the

The pontif urged the French pilgrims to
pray fervently for dear France Whlch

PARIS. June "a dispatch to the Temps
from Rome says the pcpe's reception 10 the
French pilgrims today was due to the fear
of the vatican authorities that failure to
receive them would cause exaggerated re-
ports OF his i'll health. The correspondent
adds that the pontiff is certainly weaken
ing. but he says the pope continues on foot

The militia reached the Dewey ranch to-

be started tomorrow. There is no Jail in
st. Francis and the troops do not wish to
get the prisoners there before Thursday,
when the trial will begin. The soldiers are
proceeding with great caution.
Armed men have been iocklng into St.

Even should evidence be introduced excus-
ing their crime, whether guilty or not. the
settlers In their present inflamed state of
mind are seemingly determined to wreak
vengeance on them.
