HEROES
 OF THE WAR
The Grand Army Contest
 Getting Warm
An Attack on the War Re- cord of Candidate for COmmander-in-Chief.

Minneapolis, Aug. 14-Despite a hot and somewhat sultry' day, re- unions of various regiments which have come to the city for the national encamp- ment of the G. A. R. were carried through with great success. There was not a floor in any of the hotels, not a hall in the city which did not hold the survivors of some organiza- ton that was in the field during the war. A reception was also held by the ladies of the Grand Army, the Wo- mems Relief Corps and other organiza- tions of a similar character. A large camp fire was held in the auditorium tonight. The parade of the Topeka Flambeau Club was the most attractive feature of the outdoor performances Two more members of the Grand Army died today, making three who have passed away since the present en- campment The great parade is to be held tomorrow and it is expected that 5,O00 men will be in line.
 The fight for cOmmander-in-c chief became active and bitter today. Many copies of a circular attacking the war record of Captain P. H. Coney. of Kansas. a prominent candidate, were handed around. The circular was not signed, and Captain COney declared that the attack was so utterly baseless as to be almost beneath his notice. He cOntented himself with giving it a simple denial and referring all persons who desired information as to his war record to the history of the Eleventh New York Infantry.
 It is the intention of the members of the Ladies of the Grand Army to of fer a resolution in the meeting of the Grand Army urging the purchase of the Mclean house at Appotomatox for the purpose of converting it into a national museum. It is said that the plan has met with favor on the part of the Confederate veterans. who have of fered to aid in the project. Miss Nel- lie Underwood and Mrs. Bellxnap of the Ladies of the Grand Army are push ing the plan.
 The first move towards securing the national encampment of 1907 was made today by the New York delega- ton. which announced it's intention of getting it. if possible. for Saratoga

POLITICS
 IN TEXAS
Assembling of Democrats
 in State Convention
One Wing OfLOne Star Re publicans Put Ticket Into the Field.

Dallas, Tex. Aug. 14.-With 700 dele gates, the number being limited by law, and more than 4OOO spectators. and what promises to be the most in teresting state convention ever held by the democrats of Texas since 1892 when the party split and nominated James s. Hogg and George Clark for governor, opened today The first ses- sion was devoted to the preliminaries of effecting temporary organization. Judge Joseph F. Cockreu of Dallas be- ing named as temporary chairman
 The first ballot for governor will hardly be taken before tomorrow af- ternoon, and because of the division of strength among candidates and the pe- cUlar naming system, it is expected that each ballot will require several hours. In the recent primary, D. NJ. Campbell formerly a prominent rail road man, received S1 per cent of the votes cast for governor; M. NJ. Brooks, judge of criminal court of appeals, 24 per cent; O. B. Colquitt, a member of the state railway commission. 23 per cent, and former congressman C. K. Bell. 9 per cent.
 Senator Culberson was not present, but Senator Bailey received an ovation and spoke. He praised the man whom he had supported for governor, but de- clared that as much could be said of the other candidates for the place. The rest of his speech mostly concerned presidential prospects for the national triumph of democratic principles, which he declared were excellent. He said that it had already been deter mined who the nominee would be, meaning MT. Bryan. and the declara- tiOn evoked wild applause.

VATICAN'S DIRECTION
 TO FRENCH CATHOLICS
Its Probable Effect Upon the Present
 Strained Relations
The Anti-CIericaIs Believe It Will Deprive Catholics of Religious Privileges Accorded Them by the Separation Law.

Paris. Aug. 1.-The pope's ency- cIicaI to the archbishops and bishops of France prescribing their attitude with regard to the church and state law attracts widespread attention here, and it's probable effects are subject of animated discussion.
 A pontifical messenger arrived here this morning bearing the document to Archbishop Richard. who soon after ward gave out the document for pub lication. The entourage of the arch bishop summarized their views in the following words:
 The pope has spoken and We bow with submission and joy to his in- structions."
 While this reflects the general atti- tude of hierarchy yet a considerable element among the clergy receives the decision by the pontiff with disap- pOintment and regret as being likely to begin an era of religious strife. The decision causes confusion with regard to the practical carrying on of the churches.
 The new law lays down specific pro- visions concerning the organization of church associations. but the pope's de- cisiOn appears to make it impossible for the clergy to conform to the law. At the archbishopric it was stated to- day that no steps had yet been taken 10 insure the continued operation of the churches. It is understood that the encyclical was accompanied by in structions concerning the n1eans the hierarchy should adopt. The view generally prevails that the vatican seeks to create situation compelling the government to enter negotiations for some form of church organization

A RUSSIAN SATRAPY
 IN MINING DISTRICT
A Special Government in DOnetz
 Coal and Iron Region.

St. Petersburg. Aug 14.-In view of the representations of the foreign min ing interests in the Donetz basin with regard to the seriousness of the situa- tion at UseOvaka and elsewhere. the government has erected the-whOle coal and iron district affected into a spec ial general gOvernorship in order to be better able to control the situation and has taken the unprecedented step of creating a special advisory commission of mining representatives to act in concert with the new official of the district. The jurisdiction embraces Yehaterinoslav province. the southern part of Kharkov and parts of the Don COssack territory.
 The step is comparable to the crea- tion of the much abused "satrapien" to deal with the agrarian disorders in central Russia last autumn. of which the assassinated General Sakaharoff was one of the governors and indi- cates that the government considers the situation to be equally serious. Disorders and collisions with troops continue. At Usevoka a meeting today was dispersed by COssack whips.
 On account of attempts to continue revolutionary agitation at Cronstadt COmmandant AdIerberg today publish ed an order forbidding the use of the streets after midnight except on pass closing restaurants and saloons at 10 o'clock, and forbidding altogether the sale of liquor on Sundays and holidays Adlerberg was promoted to a lieuten- ant generalship as a reward for the suppression of the mutiny.

 o1 the Stand.

Los Angeles. Aug. 14.-Mrs. Scheck wife of the murdered man, took the stand again this morning in the Stack pole murder trial and was subjected to a severe cross examination.

COLLATERAL GONE
The Assets of StensIand Bank Dwin-
 ding Away.

Chicago, Aug. 14.-It is now bell " ed that large amounts of collateral given as security for the notes in the Milwaukee Avenue State bank have been stolen. This practically became a certainty last night when a note for 5000 known to be genuine, was found in President Stensland's home at the corner of Byron street and Lawndale avenue.
 A search was then made for the col lateral security but it could not be found. If the real estate and other se- curities in the bank have been stolen or are found to be worthless the amount of money left to pay depositOrs will be reduced to as low as 25 per cent. This announcement has caused much uneasiness among them.
