POPE ON RACE QUESTION.

Pope Plus appears to have much
better understanding OF the constitution
OF the United States than Wood Daley
and those Democratic politicians who
hold the views he expressed at the
Charleston convention on the negro
question. A letter sent to this country
from the Pope says:
"Ilis Holiness, as the vicar of Christ,
extends his loving care to every race
without exception, and he must neces.
sarily use his good Offices to urge all
Catholics to be friendly to the negroes,
who are called no less than other man
10 share in all the great benefits Of the
redemption.
@W'hile frankly admitting that crime
may be often committed by members
of the negro race His holiness advo,
Gates for them the justice granted 10
other men by The laws of the land and
treatment in keeping with the tenets
Of Christianity.
Il am confident that these senti-
ments are shared by the vast majority
of the great american people and by
those Who are responsible for the Gus
tody of the principles underlying the
American constitution"
The expression of the Pope on this
question exposes little thing that mas
been Matched up by some INSCRIPTIONS
Democratic politicians here TO poison the
minds of the colored people. They tell
it that it was not true Democracy that
disfranchised the negro in Maryland,
but the Catholic people in that state.
just what they expected 10 accomplish
by telling that sort of story can not
be well figured out, but the fact is the
Catholics arc independent enough to
vote as 10 them sees best and refuse to
be dominated by Democratic politicians
probably accounts for this.

MRS. ELIAS DISCHARGED
Court Decides Charges of Extortiou
Against Her Not Strong Enough
"a Conviet

New York. June 13.-Mrs. HANNAH.
Elias today WAS discharged on motion
of Assistant District Attorney Rand at
the conclusion of the testimony Of John
r. Plat, the old millionaire who caused
her arrest for extortion.
Mr.. Plat proved a disappointing wit
ness. To questions bearing directly on
the charges on which the woman's ar
rest had been made he answered re-
peatedly, II don't Know
His helplessness and his apparently
unreliable memory surprised those who
attended his examination. He did not
remember whether he had given Mrs.
Elias large sums of money during the
last ten years, as charged, and did not
remember signing certain papers in
connection with his charges against
her.
The ordeal was a trying one for the
old man, and his replies became scarce
ly audible towards the last. AS soon
as he had left the witness stand AS
sistant District Attorney Rand said:
Your honor, I think the parties to
this miserable scandal ought to be al
lowed to stew in their w grease.
There is no evidence before you that
VIII possibly serve to hold this
on a charge Of extortion. I recommend
thai she be discharged"
The magistrate thereupon discharged
the woman.
Immediately afterward Mrs. Elias
was rearrested on a writ in the civil
suit originally brought against her by
Mr.. Plat to recover $685., 900. She was
released q few minutes later on 500 600
ball and was escorted by detectives
trough the crowded corridors of the
riminal courts building to the street,
where her carriage was waiting. Sew
eral thousand persons. among them
hundreds of negroes, attracted by the
case, thronged the building and crowd
ed the streets outside.
When Mr.. Platt, feeble and trembling,
and apparently dazed, was helped from
the building, the crowd hooted and
Kissed.
