GUARDED THE VATICAN
Feared Violence on Anniversary
OF Fall Of Temporal Power.
no OUTBREAK OCCURRED
Paraders Carried Banners Inscribed
With Anti-clerical Sentiments, But
Retained From Making Hostile
Demonstrations.

Rome. Sept. 21.-Armed men in the
service Of the pope we're on guard all
day long at the entrance OF the apos-
tolic palace. and the vatican was I'M
der the special protection OF a de-
tachment OF royal troops, but there
was no active outbreak of anti-Cleri-
cal sentiments and September 20,
the 31th anniversary OF the occupa-
ton of Rome by Italian troops and
the fall az the temporal power Of the
papacy. has passed without the full
hllment OF any fears entertained by
the vatican that the Italian people
would show by deeds OF violence their
ill-feeling against the church.
There were two big parades through
the streets Of the city. and the red
shirts of the Garibaldian veterans were
conspicuous in the throng The first
parade was official. and composed of
the members OF the so local associa-
lions. The leaders laid wreaths upon
the tomhs OF Victor Emmanuel II and
King Humbert. and decorated with
flowers the tablet at the Porta Pia
which commentaries the entry OF the
Italian troops in 1870. The other
parade was popular and unofficial II
marched past the capitol. carrying ban
ners inscribed with antl-Clerical senti-
ments. Returning the crowd raised q
red flag over the equestrian statue OF
Marcus Aurelius.
During the day the police seized 6
number OF monarchist prociamations
and the walls of the city were pia
carded with appeals TO the people tC
complete the anti-clerical victory al
the coming municipal elections"
The anniversary is celebrated IN
Italy every year. but this time there
were indications that the populact
would take advantage OF the de
monstrations to indulge the anti
clerical sentiments that OF recent
months have caused the Vatican au
thorities considerable anxiety.
Persons taking part in procession.
in honor Of the day were allowed the
fullest liberty. and the police were in
stTucted to prevent any hostile mani
| festatiOns against the clergy
The anniversary was generally cele
brated throughout Italy. King victol
Emmanuel telegraphed his felicita
tons 70 the city Of Rome.

BUSINESS oUTeRoWs RAILWAYS.
Southern Officials Say They Should
 Have Realized This Earlier.

Knoxville, Tenn, December 6-General Manager c. H. Ackert. M. M. Richey and other Southern railway officials testi- fled today in the interstate commerce commission hearing before Special Ex- aminer Smith. in a complaint brought by three mining companies. alleging dis crimination in the distribution of coal cars and asking damages therefor.
 MT. Ackert testified that in 1903 the Southern owned 9290 coal cars while to- day the company owns IS. 454 cars of this kind. He expressed the opinion that the present coal shortage Is producers and not a consumers shortage While the railroad believed it's present plan to be fair, he was willing to adopt any other method of distributing cars that coal operators might agree to.
 MT. Riehey said that southern transpor- tation men needed sympathy and that the great crime they had committed was a failure to realize five years ago that the business of the Southern would grow to such large proportions as 1t had.

Man Who Was Shot Instead of Gov
 ernor Guild Yields To Wounds.

Boston, December 6.-Edward Cohen. president of the state branch of tho American Federation of Labor, who was shot by J. A. Steele, an insane man, while waiting with other labor leaders in the state house yesterday for con- ference with Governor Guild, died of his wounds today. Governor Guild was with Cohen when he died.
 Steele, who had been only recently lib- erated from an insane asylum, was to- day served with warrant charging him with assault with intent to kill, the com- plainant being Arthur M. Huddell, who was with Cohen when the latter and Dennis Driscol, secretary of the state branch of the American Federation of Labor, were shot. It Is probable Steele will be sent to the state institution for criminal insane.

ONLY A HALF ISSUE
 OF PANAMA BONDS
SECRETARY CoRTELYOU DECIDES TO ACCEPT BIDS FOR ONLY $25,- 100000 OF BONDS FOR THE CANAL.

Washington, December 6-The Secre- tary of the Treasury has accepted bids for the Panama canal bonds to the amount of s25,OOOOOO. The average price of all the bids accepted is 103. Under the terms of the law and the secretary's s acceptance of these bids, the allotments of bonds to individuals and institutions will be confined to the small subscrip- tions from $1O,OO0 down to $20.
 The amount of bids from individuals and institutions which it has been pos- sible to accept will. as heretofore, not be large. The remainder of the accept ances will be bids of national banks
 The bids accepted have come from every section of the country and are mostly in small amounts.
 Secretary Cortelyou further says that the notices of acceptances will be mailed to the successful bidders with the least possible delay The notices will state that payments for the bonds will be expected to be made at the treasury of the United States or at some sub-treas- ury, as indicated in the bids of the subscriber within ten days from the re- ceipt of the notice by the subscriber. The offering of Panama bonds was largely ver-subscribed, but the improve ment in business conditions following the announcement of the recent meas ures of relief by the treasury depart ment is regarded by the secretary as warranting him in limiting the issue at this time to half the amount offered, S25, ,000, 900. This is almost exactly the amount of the disbursements from the general fund of the treasury that have been made during the year on the Pana- ma canal account.
 The allotments of the per cent certifi- cates will not, the secretary says, ex- ceed $15, 5,0O0,000. These have been confined to national banks throughout the coun- try, which were in position to take out at once additional circulation, this being measure designed to afford immediate relief
