KING EDWARDS APPEAL.

Practically ignored by the government
in its protest against the contemplated
reception of Cardinal Vannutelll at
W indsor Castle, the council Of the Pro-
testant alliance In London yesterday
notified the secretary of state for home
affairs that it proposes to appeal to
Parliament uults. King Edwerd heeds
its warning not "to violate for second
time the Protestant. t.copslitution of the
kingdom established by the bill OF
rights and act Of settlement"
The councils col tention is that any
British monarch who recognizes the
pope automatically vacates his throne.
Edwsrd offended the organization deeply
by attending requiem mass for the late
King Carlos of Prussia.
On learning that the cardinal, the
pspal delegate to the congress in Septem-
Der, wss to be received by his majesty,
the secrt tiry sent 8 strong protest to the
f reign Office, presumably hoping that IL
would be communicated to Rome. The
only answer was: "The under secretary
Of state for foreign affairs presents bis
compliment' to the serretsry Of the Pro-
tes tsnt alliance and, by direction of the
secretary Of state, acknowledges receipt
of his letter of the Slst ult."
The kings advisors take the stand
that, while required to swesr at his
coronation that he is not Catholic,
nothing in the constitution prohibits
him from acts of courtesy toward Oathol {
governments, the See of Rome ur theiI
representatives.

ONCE WEALTHY NOW A PAU
PER

Wealthy once aud an owner of stock
10 New England and Washington trolley
lines, Joseph Maloney, 65 years old,
whose hair has turued gray and who
has practically been a wandefer since
the death of bis wife, several years seO,
yesterday gave up his struggle to oh
tain work and sank exhausted on the
floor in front OF the rail in the east
Fl tn street station, New York.
As he collapsed Maloney muttered
that New York city is the coldest place
on earth to the man who seeks work
after once bis hair Is tinged with gray.
In telling his story 10 Lieutsnsnt Kane
he declared:
''I have made fight, but there wss
nothing in it. could get 10 work 80
went hungry, and | am hungry now. |
walked the streets, day and night, ask
ing for work 10 earn food and lodging,
but no one would give me chance "
Maloney tOtsred from weakness and
sank down on the A1or. Lieutenant Kane
sent for an ambulance and DR. Steele
came from Bellevue. The surgeon said
the aged man was suffering from stsrva-
tion and took him OFF to the hospital,
where Maloney revived after being fed
and put 10 bed.
'TPs no use," he said, "for man To
search in this city for work when be be-
gins to grow old, No one wants bin.
Everywhere be goes to seek work he is
told that younger man is needed, or
perhaps he is turned away without 80
much ss hearing. There was time
when l had money, but / put 1t In
railroad stocks and then when the big
combinations came they swept out the
small investors shd there was nothing
lef."
Maloney once owned patent for an
air brake, but somehow be lost that,
too, and ia utter desperation be walked
miles every day, without success, sesrch'
ing for something to do.

to, which has been unquestioned in Italy
for centuries" says the Rome CORES
pondent of a Berlin paper, 'is to be
brought to an end. For generations 1t
has been the custom to carry a knife,
and those men in the lower wslks who
had no knife carried shsrpened nail or
file, to be used on the slightest provo
cation. The wine is heavy, the blood
of the people is hot, their power of self
control small. Is II a wonder, then,
that, with the murderous instrument al
ways st hard, there should be so many
fatal encounters? But the lawmakers
have at last discovered that the morals
OF the whole ut ton have been influenced
fer the bad by the knife-carryiug custom
and laws will be passed similar to those
DOW in force in some parts of the United
States of America, making 1t crime to
carry a deadly weapon"

TO TEST AUTHORITY.
Suit in Fort Smith to See If City Can Place Funds in Bank to
 Draw Interest.

Fort Smith, Fet. 10.-Late Saturday evening P. H. Dickin- son filed bill in equity asking an order restraining Mayor Bour- land, w. w. Webber and Heury Kuper, tue Board of Public Affairs, from loaning city money to any bank, City Clerk Sparks from issuing warrants for same and City Treasurer Kelly from honoring such warrants.
 The city council had instructed the board of public affairs 10 place the city's money in the bank paying the largest interest on daily balances. The city has now about $60,0O0 in cash on hand and the councilmen did not care to see it idle when it might be bringing interest and the loan
 withdrawn at any time. Dickin- son is a small merchant and is supposed to be a mere hgurehead for opposition led by member of the city council.

A SPLIT AT HOT SPRINGS
Effort of Central Committee to Hold Lines Tight Causes Further
 Rreak-

Hot Springs, Feb. 8.-The Bot Williams faction of the Demo cratic County Central Committee met here this afternoon to make arrangements for the county primary. Resolutions were adopt ed pledging the voters to the support of the ticket and also the candidates whose names were submitted to abide by the result of this primary. A resolution was also passed eulogizing George B. Cook, candidate for the office of state superintendent of public instruction, and condemning the action of the Citizens Improve ment Union in issuing the circu- lar against his candidacy a few days ago.
 This action widened the breach in the Democratic party in Gar land county, the members of the Citizens Improvement Union re- fusing to be bound by such reso- lutions, and means that two tick cts will be in the field. Immedi- atcly after this action of the com. mittee Dr. Jesse Randolph, an avowed cauidate for coroner, withdrew from the meeting and inserted an announcement in the Citizeus' Bulletin to the effect that he would be an indepen- dent candidate. Many leading candidates are loud ia their de- nunciation tonight of the action of the committee, and 1t is freely prophesied that within a week a complete independent ticket will be announced.
