Picture in New York Believed to Be
 "LRst Supper"
 New York, Sept 14-In the minds of the few persons who have been per- mitted to see a picture that has been for the last six years in the vaults of n local deposit and trust company. there IS the belief that it is the painting by Raphael of The Last Supper" The picture IS the property of Mrs. James Hara of New Orleans, and an attempt will soon be made to have 1t taken to Europe and its authenticity proved.
 The canvas has had an unusual his tory. 1T 1t is the original by Raphael IL was painted in 1517. and was lost ten years later in the saoking of Rome by the spanish. About 150 years ago. 1t is said to have come into the possession Of Spanish sailor who lived near New orleans. It was handed down fin his family until one of his descendants. on dying, gave 1t to an old negro woman who cut the canvas from the frame and 'acked IL on a piece of board.

the acute crisis precipitated by the
shock of the new system In collision
with expiring tendencies approach an
end. The tragic and dep1orable events
of the past week in many parts OF the
empire may be regarded as the spohta-
neous reaction of the Conservative ele-
ments from the Manifestations. perhaps
exaggerated, OF the Radical elements.
On the other hand, 1t Is impo ssible to
deny that In certain cases this reac-
tion was favored by the agents OF local
The government is far from Ignoring
or assembling this fact. even IL by SO
doing IT could support the ancient
regime. while at the same time 1t ex-
presses firm resolution henceforth to
march In the way of progress. Among
the members of the legislature there
exists enemies of the new system who
are trying to oppose by every possible
means the realization of reform.
