CONSIDER GREooRIAN MUSIC.
international Congress Of Experts to
Be Held at Strassburg.

New York, May Am event of the
highest importance at the present
stage of the Gregorian chant question
is the International congress OF ex-
perts to be held at Strassburg from
August 16 to 10, inclusive.
The congress has been called to-
gether by DR.. w. p. Wagner, professor
of Gregorian chant at the University
of Freiburg. Switzerland. The import
ance and significance Of the meeting
is emphasized by the fact that DR..
Wagner in convoking II acts in the
name of the pontifical commission for
the preparation of the vatican edition
of the Gregorian chant, of which com
mission he is a member.
The programme Of the meeting in
cludes scientific treatises, practical in
structions and model performances.
There will be present at the congress
Representatives from Italy, Germany,
England and Ireland, France and Bel
GUM, Austria-Hungary and Switzer-
land. Invitations also have been sent
to prominent church musicians in this
country to attend the congress, but
sufficient time has not yet elapsed for
their replies to be received.
A letter recently received in this
city from Professor Wagner, who was
then in Rome. said Pope Plus will
insist on a reform according to the
regulations of his "Motu Proprio" on
church music.

PREPARING FOR
Big DISORDERS
RUSSIAN WoRkMEN WILL MAKE
MONSTER EMoNSTRATloN ON
MAY II. AND GENERAL STRIKE
MAY BE DECLARED.

st. Petersburg. May b. q a, n11-zlnde-
TERED by the complete order whith pre-
vailed in St Petersburg on May Day, ac-
cording to the Western European calen-
dar. and the energy and the potency OF
the government measures to prevent dis
orders, the social democratic committee
is going ahead with plans for great dem
onstrations ON May / of the Russian call
endar, which falls on May IA, according
to western reckoning.
The committee has placed the public
and police in possession of its plans in
widely circulated proclamation, issued to-
day, but doubt is expressed in wellposted
liberal circles of its ability to accom-
plish much in the line of demonstration
and disorders which 1t desires. The proc
lamation announces a number of parades
in various quarters of the city converging
at a central point. 1t also declares the
intention of offering armed resistance of
the police or troops endeavor to disperse
parcdes: but the most active revolution
lists and anarchists are provided to some
extent with bombs and firearms. the
great mass of the industrial population on
which they rely for the success of the
operation are known to be unproyided
with weapons. Much depends on the tenn
per of the working men which varies from
day to day.
At present the working men appear to
be disincned to a programme of riot
ing and pillage, but 1t Is quite probable
that a strike on a large scale will be
declared on May Il. Railroad strikes es-
pecially are anticipated The employees of
the ST. Petersburg Moscow road are said
to be planning tie-up, and on the trans
Caucasian as well as on the trans
Siberian lines, strikes are so probable that
the government is now sending trained
men from the army over the roads to ac-
quaint themselves with their operations
in order to be able to step In In case
of strike.
Reports Of disorders in European Rus
sit, as well as In Poland, continue TO filter

Senator Foraker of Ohio. has been ig-
nored In the sending out of invitations
for the coming state republican con-
vention In Columbus. The slight is blamed
on the DickHerrick faction, which con-

mary to send out to prominent members
of the party to attend and occupy seats on
the stage. The senator. however, will at
tend the convention His friends will see
to it that he at least gets proxy. SEN
ator Foraker declines to discuss the mat
ter other than to say 1t Is true he has
not received an invitation. Senator Fora
ker's presidential supporters understand
that the Dick-Herriek people intend to
make the convention a huge Taft rally.
The Secretary's speech will be about the
only important incident in the conven-
ton. The Taft demonstration Is meant
as a shot at Senator Foraker, who at
the convention last year forced an en-
dorsement of President Roosevelt for re-
nomination from an unwilling convention
controlled by the late Senator Hanna.

ONE PAPER SAYS DECREE FOR
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM is THE
NoBLEsT IN REIGN OF EN-
PERoR NICHOLAS.

st. Petersburg, May 4--The press con-
tinues to euf size he grant of religious
freedom. The Bourse Gazette says:
"The news is so unexpected and fun OF
significance that it Is not yet comprehend
ed. If the decree is executed in its en-
tirety 1t will be the noblest act of EN-
peror Nicholas reign"
The Sviet considers the decree to be the
first step toward the separation of church
and state and as marking the commence
mert CT the reorganization of the govern
ment of the empire.
The Russ expresses the belief that when
the extent of the freedom accorded to re-
ligion is fully realized in Poland 1t will
remove the sharpest thorn in the side OF
The Poles and lead 20 better relations be-
tween the two peoples.
The announcement is made that the
committee of ministers will take up the
question of the betterment of the Jews

VIII Consider China Neutral.

st. Petersburg, May 4.-Although the
foreign officers contends that Japan has
given ample proyocation by repeated vio-
lations to warrant Russia 70 disregard the
neutrality Of Ctinas 4he Assoeiated Press
is Informed that Rapssia has no inten-
ton of taking such a position offi+ally
and that she will continue as long as pos
sible to consider China neutral.
Al the foreign offices it was said that If
Japan has made renewed petition to
France regarding Admiral Rojestyensky' 5
stay in Indo-Chinese waters Paris has not
yet communicated the fact to ST. Peters,
burg.
The Novoe Vremya soday editorally
mentions the fact that from the manner
In which Japan has persistently violated
Chinese neutrality Russia would be fully
justified in reta,iating b. sending out the
interned cruiser Askold and the TORPEDO
boat destroyer Grozovoi from Shanghai.
Japan says the Novoe Nremya, mot
Only committed fragrant violations of neu-
trality in the case of the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Ryeishitelni at Che Foo and in
the use of the Elliott Islands as a base for
her squadron but she is now freely using
the Yinkow-Sin:nintin railroad to forward
troops and ammunitons. Field Marshal
Oyama refusing, according to reports, to
relinquish possession of Sinmintin upon
the demand of the Chinese government" +"
The paper concludes:
"Can we, after what has happened. pay
heed to Japan, protests? Ought we not
on the contrary to consider ourselves Just
as free from the tangle of Chinese neu-
trality as Japa1 does?'
The Novoe Vremya also says there Is
no occasion for the Terror created in
diplomatic circles in Washington by the
reports that the Russian warships at
Shanghai intend to sail.

Total Of 4766 Miles Of Rail-

EVERYBODY GETTING BUSY
Senator Foraker Is Ignored In Call for
Ohio Republican Convention-A
Mammoth Taft Boom Is to
Be Launched.

Washington. May 4-(Special )-Louis-
ville's title. "The Gateway of the South"
is being appropriated these days by Wash
ington, the citizens of which city, in
connection with the present railway ap-
piance. exhibition, are pointing to the
great local railroad improvements now
under way. Interesting figures are also
given from railroad sources to show the
wonderful growth of ralroading In the
south. Thus the southern and southwest
ern states are shown to have under con-
struction or contract a total of 4766 miles
of railways, while the northern, eastern
and western states have only total of
2724 miles.
But that is not all of the story table
of live projects that is, projects that
are likely to go through and which only
await a few details or a few months to
be put into operation has been compiled
from official sources and that table makes
an excellent showing for the southern
states. The live projects are as fol-
lows:
New England states 1Os miles; middle
Atlantic states, 80; central northen states
65l; south Atlantic states, 1547; Gulf and
Mississippi valley states S02 southwest
ern states, 293l; northwestern states 1243:
Pacific states, 200. Total, 1882
Thus the southern states have contem-
plated live projects involving the con-
struction of 5204 miles of railways out of
1882 miles for the other sections of the
Union. All of which is taken as collateral
evidence of the well known fact that the
south Is forging ahead a. a remarkable
rate in every branch of industrial pro-
gress.
Every southern congressman or business
man who comes up from the south these
days has something to say about the
wonderful growth of the section In bust
ness The banks and the people have more
money In general circulation than was
ever known before. Crops have been good
and the farmers are contented. But la
boring men of all GLASSES from the crew
of the section boss on the railroad to
the skilled operatives in the cotton fac
tories are prospering and every class
of business investment is returning good

WILL BEGIN TUNNEL
ON THE EAST SIDE
THE NJ, C. G. ST. L. ATTEMPTS TO
BLOCK WORK OF THE SOUTH
ERN BY PURCHASING LAND
ON THE LINE.

Chattanooga, Tenn, May 4.-After a
postponement of three days, owing to a
failure in securing the right of way for
the property on which the approaches to
the entrance of the Lookout mountain
tunnel will be constructed, the first work
towards boring the hole through the big
mountain will commence at the east side
of the mountain with l. large crew of
workmen. All the deeds for the property
over which the right of way will cross
have been signed, and now all that re-
mains is to arrange a few preliminaries.
These details will not interfere with
the work.
The Nashville, Chattanooga and St.
Louis railroad attempted to block the
work by purchasing the land through
which the new line of the Southern will
run The Nashville road controlled a
number of options on most of the prop
erty near the mountain, and when 1t be-
came known that the Southern intended
to build the extension an attempt was
made to close the options. This move
was blocked by Southern officials, how
ever. who instituted condemnation pro-
ceedings against the property owners, and
1t is thought there will oe no further de-
lpy in the work.
