While in London, Cardinal Vannu-
tell visited the museum and identified
the cope. When Pope Nicholas ~.
presented the now famous vestment to
the cathedral of Ascoli OH July %,
1888, he directed that it be used only
in the most solemn celebrations and
forbade the canons from ever dispos-
ing of it. 1t is semi-circular gar
ment embroidered with real jewels
and pearls. 1t measures 10 feet by AZ
and contains twenty oval and semi
oval panels embroidered with scenes
from the life of Christ.
At the time of the French revolution
the canons, in order to raise money to
pay the war tax imposed by Gen.
Rusca, sold the pearls and jewels, for
which they substituted imitation
stones. Therefore in 1902, when the
cope was stolen, it's value was only
artistic, but this is estimated at
100000.
The cope was kept in a glass case
in the capitular hall adjoining the
cathedral and great was the surprise
of all when, on the morning of August
Z, 1902, it was found to have disap-
pcared. The police made an invcsti-
cation at the time and arrested the
sexton and dealer in antiquities,
who, however, had to be released be-
cause no proof was found against
! them. The matter had nearly been
forgotten, when Prof Ricci, director of
the galleries and museums of Flor
encc, wrote Il few weeks ago to the
i mayor of Ascot that the cope was OH
exhibition in the South kensngtol
museum in London as the property OF
j. p. Morgan.
The mayor notified the ministry in
Rome and soon the Italian embassy in
London was trying to obtain rcstltu
ton of the precious vcstment. 1t Is
said Mr.. Morgan asserts that the cope
is the work of English cmbroidcrcrs
and as such it belongs to the EnSlisl
artistic treasury; but as high an au
thority as Professor Ventura asserts
that it is the work Of Flemish embroid
erers, many of whom, since the
twelfth century, did work in the sew
eral courts Of Italy.

COPE
italian Government Fails to Recover
Famous Vestment.
Interest in Its Return Assumes In
ternational Proportions.

Wrought by the patient labor of
pious hands in the thirteenth century,
and presented to Ascot cathedral by
Pope Nicholas W., cope of magnifi-
cent workmanship now reposes in the
South Kensington museum, at London,
to which it was loaned by it's present
owner, j. Pierpont Morgan.
Interest. in the cope, which was
stolen two years ago from the Ascoli
cathedral, has now assumed interna-
tional proportions. The italian gov
eminent has taken a hand in the mat
ter and has requested Mr.. Morgan to
return the cope to the cathedral. The
proposition for it's recovery was ad.
vanced by the italian ambassador il
London, Signor Pansa, who has COM
inundated with the representative
there of Mr.. Morgan, rcciting the facts
in connection with the theft Of the
cope, which was purchased by Mr.
Morgan and is now on exhibition III

quested that arrangements be made
for it's return to Ascoli. TO this prop

Nome short on Water.

Seattle, July I4.-When the Oregon
sailed Nome was threatened with a
water shortage. There has not been
enough rain since the opening of spring
to sluice on an extensive scale, as the
mine owners had hoped. The season
was at that time, however. farther ad-
vanced than in any year since the dis
covery OF the district. The threatened
water shortage came from two causes
light fall of snow during the witner
and small precipitation of rain this
spring. In some of the streams the
water was 50 low as to interfere seri-
ously with ditch operation.

Three Japanese Armies Have
Crossed Mountains.

Three Japanese Armies Have
Crossed Mountains.
Tokyo, July 3..-The three Japan
ese armies opposing Gen. Kuropatkin
have now emerged from the mountain
GUS country through which they have
hitherto been marching, and unless
driven back will henceforth be operat-
ing on the plains of Liau river.
BY marching 100 miles from Kiu-
lengcheng and capturing Motienlipg
and falling, the second army reached
by the first of this month positions
looking down on Liaoyang and from
which they could menace the railway
connections of the Russians.
In the meantime, the second army,
under. Gen Oku, had advanced 1l5
miles and captured Kaiping, so that
by July it was stretched across the
country from Tashichiao to point
close to Yinkow
The third army, under Gen. Nozu,
had pushed ON eighty miles from TAX
ushan and forced the Russians from
their positions on the hills beyond Hal
cheng.
With the Japanese on the plains in
terest must now center on the opera
tions of the Russian cavalry, which
will have a much better opportunity
to strike. The Cossacks may be de-
pended upon to keep the japanese cav
airy busy, and further reports from the
front are eagerly awaited.
The activity of the Russian fleet at
Port Arthur was distinct shock to
the japanese, who had believed that
there would be no further attempt Oh
the part of the Russian naval COM
mandant to win out in the open sea.
The Russian squadron that moved out
on Saturday consisted of one battle
ship, four cruisers. two gun boats and
seven destroyers, among the vessels be-
ing four which had been declared de-
stroyed during the recent fighting.
They came in touch with Admiral
Toga's third squadron, which consist
ed of two first class ana four second
class cruisers, nine miles outside Of
the harbor entrance. Hostilities were
opened by the Bayan, which fired sew
erai shots at long range without doing
any damage. Long range fighting fol-
lowed, but NEITHER belligerant display
ed any great desire to come to close
quarterds, and finally the Russians re-
turned to Port Arthur by the way they
had come.
Judging from the course taken by
the Russians their intention in coming
out was not to escape to sea, but rath-
er to shell the rear of the japanese col
umn advancing on Port Arthur.

ISLANDER LOCATED.
Lost KlOndikc Treasure Steamer
Found by Captain Finch.

Lost KlOndikc Treasure Steamer
Found by Captain Finch.
Seattle, July 14.-According to adj
vices received in this city by the Paci-
fic Coast Company's steamer City of
Seattle, which arrived in port from
Southeastern Alaska yesterday, the
Islander, which sank off Douglas island
during the latter part of August, 1900,
has been definitely located. Captain
Finch, who has charge of the work on
behalf of the Neptune Salvage coppa-
ny, reported to officers of the City of
Seattle that he had at last succeeded in
locating the vessel.
Captain Finch stated that the vessel
lies at point about eight miles north
of the extreme southerly point of Doug
las island and about one and a half
miles from shore. The discovery was
made the latter part of last week. The
report does not state the depth at which
the vessel lies. The vessel is Lying on
her starboard side, giving plain view
of the port side on which she struck.
Captain Finch says there is a great
JdSScu uOlo DlS hOA tCdm VI
horses and a wagon to drive through
just abaft the port bow Of the steamer.
"From the looks of the hole" said
Captain Finch, sit looks very much
as though the vessel struck reef in
stead of an iceberg, as was reported by
the survivors of the wreck. The hole
is located so far underneath the ves-
sci that it hardly seems probable that
it could be done by striking an iceberg
and it is my firm belief that it was a
rock and not ice that caused the dis
aster."
At the time the vessel went down
she had large amount Of treasure
aboard, some estimates giving the
amount as high as 81 200, 10000. Many
attempts have been made to locate
her with view to securing the treas
ure, but not until last week, when
Capt. Finch located the vessel, has
any success attended the efforts of the
searchers.
AS soon as possible Capt. Finch will
make an effort to loctae the cases con-
tanning tn. gold, which was in the
purser's room, after which the work of
raising it will be begun.

FRATERNAL INSURANCE..
State Law Upheld by the Supreme
Court.

Court.
Olympia, July 13.-The supreme
court in an opinion upholds the consti-
nationality of section IL Of the act OF
1901, regulating fraternal insurance
companies. The section in question is
the principal protective feature of the
whole act, as it sets out table of NOR
tally assessment rates that shall be
charged by fraternal assessment insur-
ance companies organized under the
act.
The action was brought by the state
to enjoin the Fraternal knights and
Ladies from doing business until they
corrected the violations of the table of
minimum rates.
The company obtained reversal of
the case in the superior court on the
ground that the complaint did not
state a cause of action, but the su-
preme court reverses this decision.
The association contended that the law
was class legislation, in that it exclud-
ed from the operations of the act COM
panies organized prior to its enact
ment. The supreme court holds that
inasmuch as the act does not discrim-
mate between associations organized
subsequent to its enactment it is con-
stitutional.
