Bomb Hurled At
Vatican By French.
EXPULSION OF PAPAL SECRE.
TARY CAUSES CONsIERNA-
TION.

Rome, Dec. 12.-The expulsion
from France OF Monsignor Montag-
ini. secretary of the Papal nuncia-
ture at Paris who represented the
vatican at the French capital since
the recall of the nuncio, has caused
not only astonishment bt consterna-
tion at the vatican
According to vatican officials this
step is an evident proof that the
French government wishes not only
to strike at the church as relig-
ious institution, but to present Il as
an enemy of the republic and allied
the republics foes. Furthermore the
officials characterize this step as
taken i'm a spirit OF meanness as the
French government knows vatican
cannot, because OF it's position, In.
dulged in similar action as a re-
prisal with the individual who is

EMBARRASsES THE VATICAN.
The fact that the diplomatic rela-
tions between France and the vatican
were reputed two years ago adds to
the difficulty OF the vatican.

France to the Holy See having left
Rome in 1904, Monsignor Monta-
!. gninal stayed on I'm Paris after the
departure of the papal nucio to deal
with certain matters pending be-
tween France and the church. IL Is
observed here tonight that possibly
Monsignor Montagnini remained in
the situation is that Monsignor Mon

protest against his expulsion or the
searching of his house must be com
municated to the French govern
ment through the Italian govern
ment
POPE GREATLY WORRIED
Contrary to his usual habit, the
pope remained up until late hour
tonight for the purpose of personally
reading kilograms and going over
certain documents concerning the sit
uation in France.
With him at Work is Cardinal Mer-
ry del Val, the panal secretary of
state, who is providing an indefati-
gable assistant. Both the pope and
cardinal are being aided by the
substitute secretary Of state, Mgr.
Della Chiesa, and secretary extraor-
dinary of the ecclesiastical affairs.
Mgr. Gaspari. Persons thoroughly ia
miliar with vatican affairs declare
no such excitement and apprehension
have prevailed at the vatican as to-
night since ;hc loss of temporal
power.
The pope is described as calmer
than any member Of his encourage.
He is reported to have said: Man
cannot fathom all the designs of
Providence. Perhaps the present
tribulations are intended only TO
quicken and emphasize the ultimate
and inevitable triumph of the
church.

SUPPLYING THE FOREIGN DEMAND.
a Concern That Is Too Busy to Cultivate
the Home Market

The New-York Carved Moulding Company, of
Issth-st and Riuer-ave., NewYork City, occupies
a noteworthy position among the large concerns
that export from the United States. It manufact-
ures plain, embossed and picture frame mouIdings
and claims to have In more machines than any
other plant in the world devoted exclusively 10 the
manufacturing of hardwood mouldings. Moreover.
the business is growing at phenomenal rate, the
company having had within the last two years to
double it's floor space which at the present mo-
1nent the respectable total of 1000 square feet
Although mouldings are not bulky articles the
amount of material used will astonish the unini-
tiated. Some idea of this may be gathered from
the fact that In the company's lumber yard at
Rider-aye 139th-st. and Morris-aVe, a stock of
10000 feet of hardwood, eighteen months to two
years old is carried every stick being thoroughly

THE TOBACCO PIPE.
After Centuries of Experiment and Failure
Science Achieves the Hygienic Smoke.

all the dicta OF potentates, theologs, and medicos
could cause the faithful to desert their standard
but, admitting always that along with the virtues
of tobacco were certain concfdent evils. the aid
OF science and invention enlisted in the hope
that the elimination of the bad might permit them
unassaiIed to enjoy the good
Until now, however. these failed, for they have
based all effort the false theory that the nico-
tine itself is the malefcent agent. 1t has remained
for Englishman, Charles Elkin. to work out the
problem the attempts at the solution of which
have filled patent offices with devices rs freakiSh

left to the smokers of to-day. and of all time to

Starting with the sane proposition that tobacco
without its nicotine, would be about as valuable
coffee without it's caffeine, he set out to control
the smoke to rob it of its really deeterious prop
erties-pyridine. dominant principle in gasoIene
and naphtha, and ammoniacal salts. The former
has affinity for moisture. and the latter breaks

VETERANS SHELvE
GAN TEEN FIGHT.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 17-The Grand
Army of the Republic completed its
fortieth encampment late today and ad-
journed to meet in Saratoga, N. Y, In
1907.
The encampment, after an exciting
debate, decided that a protest against
the erection of a statue to Henry Wirz.
who commanded at Andersonville,
should be sent to General S. d. Lee, the
commander of the Southern Veteran
Association. This action was decided
upon only after a long debate. which
at times became energetic and acri-
moniouS.
The proposition to deprecate the ac-
ton of Congress in abolishing the can
teen from the old soldiers home was
laid on the table without debate
Just prior to the final adjournment
the new commander-in-ch chief, R. B.
Brown of GAINESVILLE, Ohio, announced
the following staff appointments: Ad-
jutant general, Joseph w. Neal of
Ohio; quartermaster general, Charles
Burrows of New Jersey; assistant quar-
termaster general, H. ]. Hotcombe of
Pennsylvania; chief of staff, J. v.
WinantS of Ohio.
When the encampment was called to
order this afternoon the first question
UP for settlement was the next place of
holding the camp. The Invitation of
Saratoga, N. Y. was presented yester-
day. and that of Cincinnati was made
a. soon as the meeting was called to
order today. The final vote showed 4O3
for Saratoga and It's for Cincinnati.
A delegate from Wisconsin attempted
to bring up the canteen question. but
was squelched summarily, the whole
question being laid on the table al;
once.
Aoam f. Ketchen of Indianapolis
presented a minority report from the
committee on resolutions. which hal
been silent en- the question OF the pro-
posed statue to Wirz. He moved that
al. address should be sent to General
N. D. Lee, commander of the Southern
Veterans Association, asking that his
influence be used against the project
Commander4in-ch Tanner, who had
urged in his report that protest
should be made against the statue. gave
up the chair to make an impassioned
appeal. The minority report was adopt
ed by a viva voce vote, and apparently
by large majority.
During the day Commander-in-ch chief
Tanner sent a telegram to President
Roosevelt informing him of the fact
that the encampment was in session.
To this the following reply was re-
ceived:
Many thanks for your telegram.

Mrs. c. L. Ross Fears Her
Missing Offspring Has
Been Killed.

A HEARTBROKEN mother is
~ wandering up and down tho
n streets of San Francisco. crying
aloud for the safe return of her
daughter, her beautiful, fair-haired
May, the comfort of her life.
She is Mrs. c. L. Ross, and her home
is a little tent pitched at Devisadero
anc Lombard streets.
She is half crazed with her worry
ingS. Her daughter has been gone for
fifteen days, she knows not where. In
the vagaries of her mind she has
ciutched fiercely upon the idea that her
daughter was the Mrs. Harry Stevens
who committed suicide at 36 Parkside
avenue last Tuesday afternoon. She
cries that her daughter has met with
foul play. and she prays now and then
that the murderers may be found and
the murder avenged.
For the past two days Mrs. Ross has
been wandering about the city. She
read of Mrs. Harry Stevens suicide in
the papers, and she hurried the next
day to the hospital to prove that this
woman was her daughter. The body
had been removed. The next day she
called at the Morgue but by that time
the body was buried. She asked to see
the clothes, but they too had been
taken away. She carried her daugh-
ter's picture around with her. and, true
enough, the surgeons and nurses who
hao attended Mrs. Stevens were aston
ished at the resemblance of the two
women. They were not one and the
same women, however, was proved
by a description of the teeth. Yet Mrs.
Ross refuses to believe the evidence,
and she thinks that doctors and all are
trying to cover up a murder
The daughter May is Mrs. May l.
Jordan. She is 25 years old. fair haired
and blue eyed. She was employed by
r. D. Davis & Co. before the fire. She
left her mothers tent on August 2 to
seek work in Oakland. Mrs. Ross
waved good-by to her that morning and
has not seen her since. Mrs. Jordan
wore gray checked skirt and a white
silk waist when she left for Oakland.

SO for. married men and that where
men refuse TO work because the amount
earned does not equal the strike benefit
they be cut of from the benefit of the
