END HOsTILITIEs.

Havana, Sept. 15.-President Roose-
velt's declaration that it is impera-
tive that hostilities cease and arrange
ments be made to secure the per-
manent pacification of Cuba is re-
echoed enthusiastically on all sides.
Everybody is gratified at this clear
declaration and the fact that Score
tary of War Taft and Acting Secretary
Of State Bacon are to be sent to ren-
der aid to these ends. A few of the
leaders of the Moderates are of the
opinion that Secretary Taft will settle
the matter within one week on some
basis Of the division of Offices, ETC.,
but how to get the rebels to agree TO
anything which shall include the re-
tention of President Palma's admins
tration is serious connundrum.
All speculation up to the present
time leads toward the discussion of
some form of permanent American
control OF guarantee of peace and or
der as the only true solution of the
difficulty.

Concord, N. H., Sept. 19.-Charles
M. Floyd of Manchester was nominal

close of the hardest contest ever
waged in a Republican convention in

retained that position after making
terrific fight from the moment the
convention opened until the count
showed him to be Defeated. The re-

however.

PAULIST CHURCH is TO BE
FORMALLY DEDICATED TODAY
ssThe Cradle of the Local Catholic Com
munityr VIII BE Reconsecrated
by Archbishop Montgomery.

Old st. Mary's Church was "the cra-
die of the Catholic community in San
Francisco" In almost every family the
memory of some religious, rite per-
formed under its roof is cherished as
a bond of loyalty to it. Accordingly the
announcement of the dedication of the
new temporary structure is a matter of
general interest and the date will be
set down as one worthy of note in the
annals of the Catholic church in this
city. This morning at IL o'clock the
new church will be dedicated by Arch
bishop Montgomery in the presence OF
number of invited clergymen and
with beautiful and impressive cere-
monies, after which the blessed sacra-
ment will be reserved in the church
and mass will be celebrated there each
day.
This is the beginning of the effort
which the Paulist Fathers intend to
pursue for the complete restoration of
the fire-destroyed structure, so that 1t
shall remain one of the few monuments
of the burned district, which shall seem
to have survived the devastation of the
April holocaust. 1t is their purpose to
reproduce the edifice with exact fidelity
and this will not be difficult, because
the walls are still standing and ere in
reality practically more 'serviceable
than any new walls which could be
reared at the present time.

Clerk which recalls the circumstances
surrounding the flight from this city
and the death in England of Frank v.

time in his control The application
is for letters of administration for
Frank V. McDonald's estate and is the
first action of such a nature which has
ever been filed here.
The petition was filed by Attorney
Leon Prescott, but was signed by John
B. Acton, who asks that letters of ad
ministration be given him, and the
purpose of these letters is to have an
administrator against whom suit can
be brought to quiet title. The prop
erty mentioned in the petition as a
part of McDonald's estate consists of
small lot on Precita avenue, between
Ryan avenue and York street. and is
valued at but s400, while the entire
estate is said to be of less than $4,000
in value.

erty. in which Mcdonald holds an in

instruction of the policemen at once
taking the men squad by squad and
drilling them thoroughly in the work

assist the precinct election officers and
citizens.
