Bat army Retiring Board Says He
Mustn't Speak Yet.

It will take at least session for the
retiring board which is considering the fitness OF
Colonel Charles G. Ayres. of the 18th Cavalry. TO
continue In active service TO reach decision The
executive meeting of the board yesterday in the
Army Building lasted only fifteen minutes The
only thing which II considered was the incomplete
report of the surgeons on the physical condition
Of Colonel Ayres.
Colonel Ayres does not want 10 retire to be re-
tired. When the formal question was put to him
at the opening OF the first session of the board he
emphatically declined 10 retire which forced the
board 10 consider his He turned over
then 10 the surgeons. Major Guy =. Edie and Cap

day morning the surgeons reported that they had
not been able to finish their examination and
might require until this noon to do so.

CONCESSIONS By, FRANCE.
Ministers Ready to Continue Status
QuO Pending Negotiations.

Paris. July 1S-The various ministers after
consultation. seem ready, temporarily to con-
unue the minimum duty on Porto RIcan coffee
after August l. on which date the decree sus-
pending the collection of the maximum duty on
Porto Idcan coffee expires. They also viii ac-
cept, temporarily, the American meat in
spectlon certificate in lieu Of a microscopic ex-
animation as required under the French law.
These extensions, II agreed to by the full Cabi-
net. will be made in a spirit of concession in
order that the negotiations which will follow
upon the propositions presented by the United
States which Ambassador Jusserand recently
brought back with him to Paris may proceed in
the hope that an agreement can be reached. In
other words. the action of the French Cabinet
would amount to an arrangement to hold the
coffee and meat questions in abeyance pending
the result Of future negotiations on the other
questions
Frances answer to the main propositions sub
mitted by the United States Is likely to be slow
in coming the decision involves consultations
between the Ministries OF Commerce and In
dustry and Finance. as we'll with the Foreign
Office. and the vacation period is now at hand.
I'VE have two alternatives" q competent
French authority said to-day, "either TO abandon
altogether the idea of obtaining reduction OF
the duty champagne Offered by the United
Sites. the ground that the long list of articles
on which the United states asks for q minimum
duty is entirely disproportionate with what Is
offered in return and accept simply the admin
istrative ameliorations the United States is
ready to grant, to make counter proposition
trading off coffee and meats. and perhaps few
other things on the American list, for wine"
The proposal made by the United States is
limited practically to placing champagne on the
list of articles in the agreement OF 1898 and
giving it a 20 per cent reduction in duty under
the reciprocity clause Of the Dingley law, while
in return the United States asks tho minimum
tariff shoes, tools, machinery and several
other important products

POPE AFTER HERESIES.
Condemns Explaining AzUay Of
Dogmas by Catholic Writers.

Rome July 1S-The syllabus promulgated by the
Pope yesterday with regard TO the so-caIled mod
ernism IN the faith contains a preamble which
scts forth that Roman Catholic authors. under the
pretext OF examining dogmas. explain them in the
name Of history in such a fashion that the dogmas
themselves disappear To prevent such errors, the
preamble says, the Pope has ordered a Congrega-
tion of Inquistion to note and reprove the prin-
cipal errors. and with his appreciation Bixty-hve
propositions condemned. These include the
following:
Divine inspiration does not guarantee ell and
every part OF the Holy Scriptures against error
The resurrection of the Saviour is not an his
torical fact, out is purely supernatural 1t can
neither be demonstrated nor Is II demonstrable.
The Roman Catholic Church becomes the head OF
all churches. not by divine ordinances, but by
purely political circumstances.
The Church is tho enemy OF natural and theo-
logical sciences.
The Christian doctrine first Judaic. then
Pauline. then Hellenic, then universal.
Tht principal articles OF the Apostles Creed had
not the same significance TO the primitive Chris
tans they have 10 the Christians of the present
time.
