POPE MAY stop
MONKS FROM
MAKING LIQUOR

Rome, Sept. 30.-A general order has
been sent out by the vatican authorities
to all heads OF the religious orders
throughout the world. prescribing that
report be sent 10 the Congregation OF
Bishops and Regulars, detailing the To-
cality and the names Of the houses which
deal in alimentary products, such as
liquors, beer and confectionery.
The new move OF the vatican authori-
ties has cause. great surprise here, be-
cause for the pas 80 years many promi-
nent religious orders like the Carthusi-
ans. the Benedicunes, the Franciscans
and numerous religious congregations
have acquired the means OF their exist
ence from just the trade about which the
pope now desires full details.
II is asserted here that Plus X intends
to suppress all commercial undertakings
among the religious orders, and congre-
cations. and that he has already appoint
ed a commission of cardinals belonging
to the Congregation OF Bishops and Reg
ulars to study the matter.
The BenCdictine University of St. Anne
upon the Aventine was almost wholly
built out of the pi oceeds OF the sale OF
the Benedictnej liquor, which brings
profit OF about a million dollars a year
TO the order.

RUSSIA MAY CALL
PEACE CONFERENCE

The Hague, Sept So.-As time passes
the resolution voted at the plenary sit.
ting of the peace conference Sept q
regarding the meeting of future con-
ference loses all Importance.
AS is known, In the original proposi.
ton drafted first by Great Britain and
then by the United States, there were
two unconcealed intentions. namely. ia
secure automotic periodic meetings of the
conference every five or every seven
years, and the withdrawal OF the power
TO call future conferences from Russia,
not on account OF any feeling against
the Russian emperor. but on the princi-
pie that the conference should be an au.
tomato institution and independent OF
the will Of any sovereign
The delegates interested In the ques-
ton were first induced to renounce their
own propositions as they might have APP
peared dlsagreeable TO Russia, allowing
NJ. Nelidoff, president of the conference
who is n Russian himself, to present the
resolution voted Sept. 21, which assumed
the character OF a generous renunciation
on Russia's part OF interference in the
convocation OF future conferences.
