Deeming this extraordinary act of fanatcism
entitled to some special attention telegraphed
to Reuters Agency for further particulars. We
asked if Helen left her room Immediately after she
cut off her hand, how long did it take her to walk
the several blocks" to "a cathedral" how many
cathedrals and bishops are there in Los Angeles,
and did Mary pour OUT or spill or did her pen
ance leak out before the altar. We also inquired
how long Mary her knees before the altar
and what time did Mary take to walk back to her
lodgings up to her room and how many minutes or
hours was she in her room before 'she was dscov-
cred" And finally when the arm was cut off, were
the arteries and veins severed.
THE ANSWER
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1907-06-22
THE ANSWER.
Reuters Agency


Los Angeles, June 15.-Are you fool? Of
course the arteries and veins we're severed. From
the time that Mary cut off her hand till she was
found sitting in her room was one hour and ten
minutes. Strange to relate no blood flowed from
her arm after the hand was cut off. Superstitious
Catholics say this owing to the intercession Of
saint but scientists here state that it is not
an uncommon occurrence in acute attacks of de-
mentia religiosa and claim to explain it satisfac-
torily by arguments and logical deductions from
syco-sumetric phenomena
They cite the of Delphine Moreau. the es-
tatica of Tours, who conversed with her friends,
and lived three days after her head cut off,
and of the still more wonderful case, reported by
DR.. Pelletier, of Jean LIE Rhue, who was guillo-
tined, and, loosing no blood, walked home and
ressed his children.

The idea of declaring a law condi

the burden of showing it to be so be

That White House Mortgage.

There is no doubt that when tn
Wall street interests. the frenZie /
financiers and the munopolists who
control the tariff protected trusts
|agreed to finance the Roosevelt cam
paign in 1901. they were promised
that at least. the administration would
not hurt the good trusts and corpora
tions, of which we We're assured there
We're many. In fact, Senator Knox
of Pennsylvania, while he was in the
Roosevelt administration would not
run amuck." That assurance, never
denied by the president. led to liberal
campaign contributions by the cor
pOrations. That some of these ardent
republican tinanciers should feel thai
they have been deceived was to ha;s
been expected and that they are now
in the depths OF despair is not Won
deriul. One Of the largest commits
sion houses in New York, who is
vOuchcd for by the Journal of Com
merce as having republican sympa-
thicS. saws in their last cOmmuuica-
ton to their customers: The great
throbbing life of business has been
stabbed in the vitals. Can the 9th n
parts survive? \ reassuring state
ment from the president that Oft-eX-
pected will OF the wisp of Wall street,
can have little weight now. the vary
ing character of his utteranCCs in the
past have been of such contradictory
nature that what he might say again
| from an administration infected with
delusiOns and warped by political con
sidcration, the IToblematical ability
Of the federal government to now
control the destructive and ararchistic
forces it has set loose. that makes
the outlook gloomy. 1t is time for
business men to unite in conferenc
and action TO force common sense a
the White house"
In the same issue of the Journal Of
Commerce. the Wall street firm OF
Carpenter, Baggot & Co, tells its
customers that the president and "a
weak attorney general. who delighte
in seeing his name in print. and who
/
have done more in breaking down
confidence, and more injury to busi
ness than can be repaired in a year
or more" This firm then let's the
political cat out of the republican bag
lby declaring that: "A member of the
republican national committee tells /.
that political pressure which is the
only competent pressure-is being
brought to bear on the president. and
he is faltering: i'll fact is scared at
his havoc and the wanc of his popular
ity, He has been shown the neces
sity of great campaign contributions
next year to offset the damage he has
done, and there are hopes that his
loss of political prestige may cause
him to appreciate the seriousness oi
his methods and cause at least mot
ifcation of them" 1t will be inter
esting to note what effect this "po
litical pressure" will have in forcing
common sense at the White house.
