To Attack the Vatican.

The Osservatore X ,Laaao Yesterday
published semioficisl article saying that
the French Cabinet is preparing to at
tack the Vatican at the rsopening OF the
chambers, by accusing it Of engaging in
q conspiracy with the monarchists u
overthrow the republic, and giving the
following statements as proof OF It's
charges:
That the royalist pres which opposed
the late Pope Leo XIII approves of
Pope Plus X
That the royaIist leaders urge the Pope
tn support the religious movement in
France.
That the Pope granted an Interview to
the royslist organ, the q uipls,
The Osservstore Romano answers these
allegations by stating that Pope Plus,
like Pope leo, loyalty accepts tue repub
lie, as the former has repeatedly affirm
ed, confirming his statement 10 bis re-
cent encyclical on the church and state
separation law, and challenges anybody
to quoe word cred by the Pope or
to adduce fact showing the Pontitf as
an enemy Of the republic.
The proofs to be retired to BY the
French government, the O.servstore Ro.
msno adds, are not serious. The n.y.
alists support the Pope either as go d
Catholics or for peliticsl aims In the
latter case it IL not the Vatican's fault,

lie and resulting from the anti-religious

court the will of the late VIM. Weight
man, who left $50, 900, 900 refused to

morning, but it was learned from an
authoritative source that Mrs. Wister has
decided to continue the fight.
II is not expected, however, that the
case will be resumed at the present term
of the Orphans Court, owing to the legal
red tape, and the chances are very sim
for all the sensational details in the case
being brought out until the December or
January term.
Mrs. Wister when question concerning
the abrupt ending of the case said that
the ''yellow paper" in question would
benefit her when the trial wa, concluded.
The peculiar halt 10 the contest is an
absorbing topic of conversation every day
aud the whole city is guessing at the
mystery. 1t is assumed on every hand
that a sensational scandal is hidden 10
the strange document. This impression
is strengthened by the attitude of every
one connected in the case, particularly

side guard their statements when asked

Hays cutter made cruise from Nome,
Alaska, to punish whslers engaged in
the nefarious work. Speaking OF the
habits of the officers of the whslers,
Lieutenant Hay says: 'They have
been coming up here for years, where
there was little or no law in the land, with.
out any moleststion, until they began to
think that they were the law themselves.
1t became the custom of the captain and
mates to kidnap squaws on the way up
and take them into the Arctic, where
they were often caught in the Ice, and
forced to winter. Some ships had regu-
lar harems on board. One captain,
Captain Neroth, of the whaler jean
nette,' had a liking for girls. In the
summer of 1905 he carried off three
young native girls, one from Cape Prince
of Wales, and two more from the Do
mede Islands in the Straits aud sailed
North with them. The Bear came
along about two weeks behind the whsl-
ers, took district attorney and marshal
on board and tried 10 get him, but they

In a Dilemma.

Illinois labor leaders who gathered at

The political priests of labor are at sea

Labor leaders are willing to carr out
bis orders, but are wondering how it is
to be done without mourning the enmi-
ty OF the United Mine Workers, the
leading labor organization in Illinois.
John II. Walker, of Danville, mem
bsr of the miners union, is in Streator,
supported by about sixty miner delegates,
who are advocating the Endorsement of
his candidacy against Congressman Can
non. The trouble is Walker is n candi-
date on the socialist ticket.
The American Federation of Labor,
and particularly President Gompers, it
is admitted, neTe- will stand for support
ing q socialist Walkers friends see
this difficulty, but demand his indorse-
meat on the ground that be is trade
unIonist. The miners incidentally control
about one third of the delegates in the
convention. W. ID. Ryan, secretary OF
the Illinois miners, says if the fedora
ton does not indorse Walker it will have
to answe' 10 the United Mine Workers.
To add to the situation, President Bar

political activity was injuring the cause
