WASHINGTON DAY IN HUNGARY
Monument to First President of
United states UnveiIed at
Buda Pest.

BUDAPEST, Sept. 16-This was George
Washingtons day In Hungary's capital
and the entire population from morning un-
til night gave itself UP to enthusiasm over
the unwilling on monarchical territory OF
a monument 20 the first president OF the
United States. The Stars and Stripes and
the Hungarian colors fntertw1ned were
TO be seen everywhere. This morning there
were special sermons in many churches, the
preachers calling attention to the impor-
tance of the event. This afternoon thous-
ands of persons lined the streets through
which passed an imposing parade TO the
city park, in which the monument stands.
Thirty Thousand persons were In the park,
which was surrounded by many thousands
more. Francis Kossuth, Hungarian minis
ter of commerce. and Count Albert APP
ponyi. minister OF worship. represented the
Independence party at the oeremonies and
were not present in their capacity as gov
ernmcnt officials
The monument was unveiled amid scenes
Of great enthusiasm. Herr Rakovsd. vice
president OF the Chamber OF Deputies. was
the orator OF the day. He dwelt at length
on washinstons great work for the cause
OF civilization. not only for the United
States, but for all the world. He said
the standard set by the father of the
American republic had Influenced Louis
Kossuth. and that by that standard Hun
gary's greatness would be attained.
At banquet tonight Herr Bausey toasted
President Roosevelt and Consul General
Chester proposed the health of the king
of Hungary. Count Apponyi eulogized the
United States and expressed his admira-
ton OF Observation-Disclosures for being alb
solutely loyal to their new home, while
refining their love for the fatherland. Mr..
Chester availed himself OF the opportunity
TO state that he only attended the cere-
monies and the banquet as a private
American citizen, thinking 1t was his duty
to do so on such an occasion.

PLAYING FOR STRONGER NAVY
German Government Lets No Oppor-
tunity Escape to show Neces-
sity for ships.

BERLIN, Sept. l6.-(special Cablegram to
The Bee 1.-THE dsingenuous tactics of the
ksIser's government in suppressing the fact
that King Edward wished to visit Berlin
In 1904-the supposed refusal of the king
being used as a means of popularizng the
increase of the ieet-have been further
manifested by Germany's refusal TO par
ticipate in the international naval review
to be held at jamestown, Va, next spring
The occasion is the opening of the James
town exposition. and an invitation to par
tlcipate had been received from the United
States government
II is learned that the German government
declined the invitation on the ground that
It has no ships which oGn be spared. There
is excellent reason TO believe that the true
inwardness of the refusal is a desire to
emphasize afresh the poverty OF the Ger
man fleet.
The government wishes to be able TO say
to the German people. practically. Now
you see the shame which the Reichstag's s
refusal TO authorize new ships brings upon
us. Through our lack OF sufficient cruisers
for foreign service tho German flag will
be conspicuously missing from a spectacle
wherein II would be advantageous from
every standpoint for us to be represented {"
Americans will probably inquire why II
would not be possible to detach for the
purpose in question one OF the German
cruisers which are constantly in South
American waters.

PARSONAGE A PUBLIC HOUSE
Peculiar Condition Follows sepHra-
tion of Church and state I'm
French village.

PARIS. Sept 1e.-(speciel Cablegram to
The Bee e)--Dlsestab blishment has led already
TO a strange state of things in one small
village. la valette has ceased to have an
incumbent of it's own. and the vicar of
the neighboring townlet of Orisen- Ratier
has taken over both parishes. He remains
In mis- own vicarage and has let the other
10 tenants in the wine and spirit business.
They have carried on their trade. and the
parsonage has become a public house. The
countryside is indignant and has appealed
TO the authorities-not, however, as might
be supposed, to the ecclesiastical authori-
ties but to the state. The church has not
interfered, but the minister OF public in
struetion, and temporarily Of public wor-
ship has. He points out that under the
disestablishment act parsonages will be for
fve years placed free of charge at the
disposal of incumbents installed by the le-
gal association OF public worship and re-
siding in the parishes which they admin
lister. He infers that where there is TO
resident priest the parsonage is. ipso facto.
the property of the parish. Therefore he
advises the commune of La Valette to In
stitute legal proceedings for the recovery
OF its property in order to eject therefrom
the occupants who have turned II into
wine shop. Thus the only legal process
by which the shocked parishioners can Pre-.
vent the parsonage being used as a dram
shop is an appeal to the provisions of the
separation law.

INDIANS ATTEND CONVocATIoN
Four Thousand AbOrfgines Present at
Annual Services AT santee
Agency.

SIOUX FALLS s. D.. Sept, 1s.-<special.)
To-day was the big day Of the annual con-
vocation of the Episcopal Indians of South
Dakota and adjoining states, which for the
last three days has been In progress at
Santee Indian Agency. Neb., Just across
the Missouri river from Springfield, 8. d.
Probably for the first time since becoun-
ing the missionary bishop of South Dakota,
Right Rev. William Hobart Hare, the VEN
erable bishop Of the Episcopal church Of
South Dakota, was unable to attend the
convocation- he not having returned from
the east. where he went some weeks ago.
his health not being OF the best.
The head of the church was represented
at the convocation by Bishop johnson OF
this city. coadJutor to Bishop Hare, who
thus for the first time was brought into
contact with a large gathering of the In
dian members of the church. While general
regret was expressed among the Indians
because OF the unavoidable absence Of the
bishop whom they love as a father they
were pleased to meet Bishop johnson. upon
whose shoulders the hard work OF the
church formely performed by Bishop Hare
now has fallen.
The convocation il the big event OF the
year among the Indian members of the
church, ana tney turn out by thousands TO
attend 1t. Since soon after the opening of
the present month they commenced travel
ing toward Santee agency for the purpose
OF being on the ground well in advance Of
the opening Of the convocation. Hundreds
OF Indians. with their families, had arrived
at santee agency a week or more prior to
the time set for the opening OF the convo-
cation. At the very lowest estimate, fully
1900 Indians. including men. women and
children, are attending this years convoca-
tion.
In addition to Bishop Johnson, more than
thirty ministers OF the church, both white
and Indian, are attending the convocation
during which they are scheduled to make
addresses to the assembled Indians. Prao-
tically every reservation in the two Dako-
tas and some Of the reservations in Ne
gnraska are represented in the big gatherdns

STEAMER MONGOLIA STRANDED
Sister ship TO the Manchuria Fast
on a Reef on Midway
Island.

MIDWAY ISLAND, North Pacific Ocean.
Sept 16.-The Pacific Mail saemship Mon
golia, a sister ship of the Manchuria. Is
aground on Midway reef The ship is be-
ing lightered and its passengers are being
landed safely. The weather is fine and the
sea smooth.
HONOLULU, Sept 16-A sesage received
here from Captain Porter of the steamship
Mongolia says that the vessel is on the
rocks and Is in bad position. Its pas
sengers have been safely landed on Mid
way island 1t Is thought that steamers
will be hurried from this port with supplies
and tackle unless the Mongolia is quickly
1oated. They will also bring away its pas
sengers. Midway Is utterly lacking In ac-
commodations for so many people and
much hardship may result.
The steamship Mongolia sailed from
Yokohama for San Francisco September 10.
The steamship il owned by the Pacific
Mail Steamship company OF New York and
is a sister ship Of the Manchuria, which
went ashore on Rabbit island, August 20,
and was only 1oated yesterday Sunday.
