YATICAN'S CLAIMS
ANGER ITALIANS
Pope Accused Of Stealing the
Pontifcal Patrimony and
~ -.
Calling King a Usurper.

Rome, May Silt is reported that
the pope is preparing an encyclical
asserting that he is prepared to re-
nounce his claims to all temporal SOW
ereignty except in Rome.
In the chamber Of deputies Premier
Giolitti defended the government of
Italy against the charge made by the
republican leader that the insult to
the nation in the Vatican note to the
powers on the French presidents visit
to Rome had not been resented.
Signor Mazza's Interpolation asked
the governn ert to take energetic ac-
ton to prevent the invasion Of the
church into the kingdom affairs. He
said his holiness had now risen against
a king, who, according to. the Vatican
had stolen the pontinc1aa patrimony
designating his majesty as an usurper
The note, therefore, was declaration
of war.
Premier Gio1itti said that the Vati-
can note naturally was not communl.
Gated to the Italian government
France had answered as she thought
|lbest. The affair was one in which
Italy could not interfere.

BALTIMORE MAYOR

Ba1tirno ore, May s1.-with a certifi-
cate signed by Coroner Hayden assign
ing suicide as the cause Of death, the
body of Mayor Robert M. McLane of
this city has been committed to an
for burial.
Mr.. McLane evidently shot himself
while standing before a mirror in his

weeks was at the time of the tragedy
asleep in an adjoining room, and she
was awakened by the discharge Of the
revolver.

the household; rushed to the mayors
assistance, but he did not regain con-
seriousness after he fell to the floor,
and he expired within an hour.
the youngest chief executive Baltimore
ever had. He was the son of Jam es
l.. McLane, president Of the First Ma
tional bank, and nephew of Robert M.
McLane, former governor Of Mary
land and United States minister to
France during President Cleveland
first administration. Previous to his
election as mayor. he had for four
years filed the office of states attor-
ney, in which he had distinguished
himself by jealous and intelligent
discharge of his duties.
Mayor McLane was elected as a
democrat to the office Of chief magis-
trate Of the municipality in May of
last year. During his brief admins
tration he brought upon himself the
antagonism Of the regular democratic
organization by the appointment Of in
dependent members of the party. Re
Gently there was marked opposition to
him among democratic members of
the city council in matters relating to
| the rebuilding of Baltimore after the
| recent big fire and this is ascribed by
many as a contributory cause of mel
tai aberratlonF and suicide. SY7Egt
President e. Clay Timanus Of the
second branch of the city council took
the oath as mayor of Baltimore to-day
and will serve for the remainderIof
Mayor McLane's term of three years
Mayor Timanus is a republican, but
it is not believed that he will under
take to undo the appointments of his
predecessor.

the Cossacks, who retired in good or

the road to Saimatsza.
There was a great deal of firing on
both sides, but like most fighting IN
the dark it was very ineffective, as
shown by small Russian losses.
1t is believed the Japanese did moi
sustain any greater casualties, but ac-
cording to one account the majority
of the Japanese squadron was wiped
out.
After reaching Saimatsza, May 20
the Japanese returned to kuan-d1an-

Chairman ConnoAr, speaking to T e,

that the conference related to the

Enough was learned, however, to
the defeat Of one. or. more Of the re-
publican electors, and perhaps the
whole electoral ticket was pointed out

brought about by a Aaw Of the state
which provides that the nominees for
office can go on only one ticket. A
majority of the electors nominated at
Madison by both conventions includ-

dicated to the secretary of state that
they want to be placed on the La Fol
