Russia Sends Copies of Scheme to
 Diplomats Abroad.
 St. Petersburg, Aug. s.-The foreign office has sent to the Russian diplo- ma tic repres sntatives abroad. copies of the scheme for Macedonian reforms as drawn up by Russia and fully ap- proved by Great Britain.
 The documents are accompanied by a communication to the various pow CTS, setting forth that the project is forwarded to them only for their in- formation in so much as, in the opin- icn of Russia, the powers should, in view of recent events in Turkey, de- fer any action which might be con- tiGered to show distrust of the Sul- tan and the Ottaman government In the present work of reform. The dis ratch adds that Russia will follow with the most sympathetic attention the efforts of Turkey to assure the successful working of the new regime and that she will abstain from any interference calculated to complicate this task
 ''On the other hand" the dispatch concludes. Russia. faithful to her Historic traditions and taking her stand on her truly rights. will only consider that her own work of reform in Macedonia, or that of the other powers. has been accomplished if the work undertaken by the Sultan results in real improvement. Should the con- trary be the case it will be the duty of Russia to direct the attention of the powers to the necessity of resum- ing this work of reform at present infArrunted

EXECUTIVE SESSION
COMMITTEE STILL INVESTIGATING
 CONVICT SYSTEM.
ii Now Seems Very Probable That an Extra Session of the Georgia
 Legislature VIII Be HeId.

Atlanta Ga. Aug. s-The legislative committee which is investigating Geor- gia's convict system and reviewing the record of the State Prison Commission, held an executive session today and discussed the future course of the in- vestigation.
 No final agreement was reached, the committee deciding to continue the ex- animation of witnesses Monday after noon. If by that time 1t appears that an extra session of the Legislature will be called-as now seems probable subpoenas will be used for a number of witnesses selected from the list of 200 furnished the committee by Chair man Turner of the Prison Committee.
 A great volume of testimony has been taken, some fifty or sixty wit nesses having been examined. The transcript of their testimony has not been completed and the expert audi tors now inspecting the books of the Commission have not finished their work and 1t seems now that 1t would be physical impossibi1ity to complete the Investigation in the three days left of the legislative session.
 An interesting development of the investigation today was statement issued by former Governor Joseph NJ Terrell. denying emphatically that in settling a controversy between some of those men directly concerned In the convict lease system while he was Att torney General, that he was In any way Interfering with the duties of his of flee. The statement of Governor Ter rell eoincides with the evidence given on the stand of other witnesses.

STRIKE IS UNCHANGED.
Canadian Pacific Railroad EmpIO

Canadian Pacific Railroad Employs
 Many Extra Policemen.
 Winnipeg. Man. Aug. s.-The local condition of the Canadian Pacific strike Is unchanged except that the. company has engaged a large number of police.
 Some strikers have had themselves engaged in this capacity so as to keep their friends informed as to what is going on. The men are all in good humor and have a months pay coming to them from the Canadian Pacific on the 18th, including the sum always held in reserve by the company Over A million and a half dollars is to be paid out that day to strikers.
 Manager of the strike McVety said that the company Is trying hard to get Japanese for points west of here, but that as soon as the Japanese learn the true situation they nearly always quit. Executive Committee says the ranks of the strikers are being con- tinuaIly added to by men from other departments who were ordered to take up the work of the men who quit. When asked if there were any signs of a settlement movement, McVety said there were no signs of overtures from either side.
 Tickets are being regularly main tained but have strict instructions to avoid violence. G. J. Bury, General Manager of the company. said today that winnipeg is practically the only place where the places of fhe strikers have not been largely filled.

THE PERsIANs.

The people of Persia are intelligent. adaptabIe, hospitable. and soctable. They have kindly and generous in- stinets. They are very sensitive to inc opinions that their neighbors have of them. particularly in matters in- tellectual Their armour proper is sell dom for their country but more often for themselves, their town or their reli- zion. still, 1t Is 8 strong feeling. In moral matters 1t is easier to induce them to exceed their duty than to per- form 1t strictly They are very com mercial in their ideas. but their notion of commerce is rather to effect a coup; and whether in business or in ordinary behavior a transaction where you simply do the right thing without seeking either much advantage or much credit will always strike them as hopelessly banal. They are. there fore, very unreliable, and appear to the Westerner to be lacking In charact- CT. They are extraordinarily adept at imitation, and they quickly conform themselves to any change of circum- stances This seems to be partly owing to their lack of depth and so the thing under the surface, but this lack of depth Is only comparative. A Persian is not a fool, and on certain matters that are thrust before his eyes he sees much more deeply than the Euro pean.

CATERPILLAR PLAGUE.
Saxon Authorities Have Discovered
 Way to StoR It.

 Way to Stop It.
 Sitku. Germany, Aug. s.-The Saxon authorities have discovered what would seem to be an excellent way to put an end to the caterpillar plague which is having such a disastrous effect on the local forests.
 They have discovered a method to catch the brown nun moths that lay the eggs from which the caterpillar come in enormous quantities. They r"oke use of what they call the cleo tric light trip. This consists of two large and powerful refiectors placed over a deep receptacle and powerful exhaust fans. At night two great streams of light are thrown from the refiectors on the wooded mountain slices half mile distant. The results have been astonishing.
 The moths. drawn by the brilliancy, come huttering in thousands along the broad rays of light. When they get within a. certain distance of the re- hectors the exhaust fans take up their work and with powerful currents of air swirl them down into the recept- scle. On the first night no less than three tons of moth were caught

He Was Able to Go to Vatican to See
 P0nA

EVRG.
 Rome. Aug. s.-Cardinal Gibbons had improved so much this morning from his recent indisposItion that he was able to go to the Vatican and call upon the Pope. The Pontifr congrat tu- lated his emnince upon his recovery.
 Cardinal Gibbons was accompanied by the Rev. A. P Doyle. rector of the Apostolic Mission House at Washing ton. D. C. He presented the Pope with a letter describing the object of the organization and the working of the mission. the purpose of which is to con- vert Americans to the Roman Catholic faith. The Pope gave the seal of his approval to the institution and wishing to manifest in a tangible way his ap- probation and encouragement, he prom ised to write a rescript on a letter to the Cardinal. The Pontiff again con- graduated Father Doyle on his Iabors at Washington.
 Cardinal Gibbons presented to the Pope the canons of the basilica of St. Maria in Trastevere. over which the American prelate holds the title of arch priese. On account of his recent Ill., ness. he had decided to give up the idea of celebrating pontihcal mass in that basillca Aug. 15. MonsiRnor OfConnel1 of Washington will ceIe- brate the mass while Cardinal Gibbons will assist him.
 4ASASASASt V NOunCA dl5O attended the presentation as a former vicar of the Chapter of St. Maria. Pope Plus, in answering an address by the Cam ems. said he was most pleased to see them headed by their amiable Cardinal titular arch priest, who was etill strong and active in the full vigor of his faculties and upon whom he in- volxed his choicest blessing. The Pope then urged Cardinal Gibbons not to miss Sundays function, the anniver- sary of his coropation as Pope, in the Sistine Chapel, saying that as Car 6inal Gibbons was the oldest cardinal priest. he must assist at the papal throne.
 Later the cardinal presented to his holiness. Ebert H. Gary. chairman of the board of directors of the United States Steel Corporation and Mrs. Gary. Pope Plus was greatly interest ed to hear that 25.0o0 persons worked under Mir. Gary. Fifteen other Ameri- cans also were presented. The plans of Cardinal Gibbons for next week in- ciude a visit on Thursday to Orvieto in the province of Perugia, a farewell audience of the Pope Friday and at tendance at the pontificial mass in the BaEilica of St. Maria In Traslevoc at which Monsignor O'Connell will ponti- ncate on Saturday. The following day he will leave Rome. with Monsignor O'Connell for Switzerland, going to the villa Benzige on Lake Lucerne sbove Brunnen.

They Dc Not Intend to Walt on Na-
 tional Committee fe Determine
 Sentiment For or Against
 Mr. Huxhes.
 New York. Aug s.--That the sup porters of Governor Hughes for re- nomination do not intend to walt for oficiais of the National Republican Committee and the New York State leaders to determine the sentiment of the Governorship. was indicated today by ap announcement that there would be a Hughes mass meeting held in New York city at an early date. and per haps in other sections.
 It Is the intention to have a meeting in Madison Square Garden late this month under the auspices of the Re- publican Club of New York City, and there IS a movement on foot. headed by some members fthe Union League Club, to have non-partisan gathering al about the same time. and if possi- ble to have Joseph H Choate. former Ambassador to Great Britain. to pre- side. The State and County leaders will have no part in the gatherings, 1t Is said. unless they perhaps go as individuals.
 In the meantime. Mir. Hitchcock, chairman of the National Committee, is going on with his arrangements to de- termine the sentiment In his own way, and some of the State leaders, who are opposed to the renomination of Gov ernor Hughes, are continuing to round up voters of similar benefit on the Gov ernorship question.
 J. Coleman Dupont of Deleware. ar rived here today and began organizing the Republican National Speakers Bu- reau. of which he will have charge. Glowing reports of the organizations work in the West brought to the Re- publican Headquarters today by A Nj. Stevenson of Denver. former member of the National Committee from Colo rado. Mir. Stevenson said that all of the State chairmen from States west of the Missouri River are carrying on heir work in accordance with plans made at the Colorado Springs confer ence. Mir. stevenson asserted that MT. Taft would carry every one of the Western States with the exception of Nevada, and he thought that State was good fighting ground for the Republi- cans. In Nebraska and Montana, he predicted that the fight would be close, but that Taft would win.
 How about Utah?" some one asked, and Mir stevenson replied that Utah would give the biggest Republican ma jority ever cast for any Republican can didate. He expected Oklah oma, which he. classed as Southern State. to give MT. Bryan its electoral vote.
