DR.. Corea Receives Gable from
President Regarding the
Moving of Troops
ASSOCIATED Press1

WASHINGTON, June 5.-Dr. Luis
Corea, representative In Washington of
the Madriz government in Nicaragua,
made public dispatch today which
he says he received from President
Madriz, to the effect that the govern
ment forces at Rama and Blueflelds
had retired upon orders from Madriz,
and reconcentrated elsewhere. The text
of the message follows:

taken by General Irias' troops while he
was mining the outposts of Bluefields
for the Estrada forces.
DOUBTS CAPTURE
For this reason the Madriz represen-
tative doubted the truth of Pittman's
capture. Assurances have been given
the state department by the Madriz
faction that Pittman will be treated
considerably. These came to Secretary
Knox in a dispatch from American
Consul Olivares at Managua, who
stated that courtmarital to try the
prisoner had not been ordered. The
state department today sent para
phrase of the telegram to Edwin Pitt
man of Cambridge, Mass, a relative
of the man in custody.
The information received from Con-
sui Olivaries is satisfactory to the state
department.

CHURCH AND STATE
CONFLICT MAY END
French Government Is Willing to
to Treat with Bishops but
Not with Vatican
IAssociated Pressl

PARIS, June 5.-While semi official
Vatican reports deny that any ar
rangement between the government of
France and the Catholic church ever
will be possible without direct nego-
tiations with the pope, there are the
best of reasons here for believing that
a considerable section of the French
episcopate continues in it's endeavors
in induce the Vactican to modify its
attitude.
Premier BRAND, the author of the
separation law, always has been anx-
ious to restore religious peace in the
country, practically his only condition
being insistence upon the church'S rec
ognition of the separation as a fait
accompli.
Under the inspiration concessions re-
peatedly have been offered which would
give the church legal status, but al
though a minority of the episcopate
secretly was ready to second his ef-
forts, the Vatican invariably declined
to give it's approval.
EFFORT REPULSED
Beginning with the refusal to form
association cultuelles" which would
nave eIldDltu Tie 10 Ieldlll oil
of it's property, every subsequent eff
fort at conciliation has been repulsed.
Nevertheless it is stated the gov
ernment hopes for a settlement and
indirectly has advised the French bish-
ops that it Is willing to treat with
them, but not with the Vatican, upon
the following points:
POINTS OF DISCUSSION
Attribution of church property not
yet taken over; legalization of semi
nares not prescribed by law recogni-
tion of Catholic schools as "ecoles Ii
bres" providing they are subject to
the control of inspectors of the acad-
emy Chat is, permitting the academy
to interdct certain books without be-
ing able to impose any upon the
schools)-all this provided the bishops
accept the separation law and renounce
claims for the future.
The government also has let it be
understood that the bishops can sub
nit the terms of the arrangement to
Rome for approval, only insisting that
the agreement must be between the
government and the French bishops
and not between the French govern
ment and the pope.
Cardinal CouilleS' recent visit to
Rome, despite denials, is believed to
be connected with these so-caled ne
gotiations. but all reports indicate the
Vatican refuses absolutely to yield
upon the main point-namely, direct
negotiations with Rome.

ASSOCIATED Press1

II ES MONIES, Iowa, June 5.-Par-
~ ticipants in the state primary
= campaign, weary with almost
ceaseless speechmaking, were glad to
be strict Sabbatarlans today.
Everywhere, however, the claims of
the Republican gubernatorial candi-
dates, and those Of aspirants in the
Seventh and Ninth congressional dis
tricts were eagerly discussed. In these
districts, where Congressman Hull and
Smith respectively are closely pressed
by the progressive candidates, and
where the result will be considered as
having a national bearing, and which
the nation is watching, the campaign
will be waged up to the last moment
before the primary Tuesday.
Both Hull and Smith, the latter par
ticularly as a member of the Cannon
rules committee. are regarded by the
"progressives" as standing for all that
is reactionary.
The fight has been waged with great
bitterness. Governor Carroll has COM
pleted an automobile spellbinding tour,
and asserts that he will win on Tuesday
by majority of $4,000. Warren Garst,
the progressive candidate, claims a
similar majority.

ANGELS bACkSTOP
INJURED; MAY DIE
Catcher 0rendorff Struck by a
Pitched Ball and Is Taken
to a Hospital
TAssociated Press1

SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.-Catcher
Orendorff of the Los Angeles team of
the Coast league was struck on the
head by pitched ball during the
morning game with Oakland today and
was injured so badly that he may die.
He was taken to an Oakland hospital,
suffering with concussoin of the brain.
1t was in the fifth inning, when Oren-
dorff stepped into the box, that the ac-
cident occurred. Lively, who was
pitching for Oakland, obeyed the signal
from Mite and sent high inside ball.
The curve broke some distance from
the plate, and the ball, shooting up
ward, struck Orendorff under the left
ear The injured player dropped to the
ground, and his teammates, realizing
the seriousness Of the case, rushed him
to the club house. After being exam
ined by a doctor he was removed to
the hospital.
Late in the afternoon the doctors
announced that Orendorff had regained
consciousness. This was taken as an
indication that his chances for recov-
cry are improved.
Jesse Orendorff is % years old. He
came from California OF ST. Louis and
has become a favorite on the coast.
Orendorff is the leading catcher for
the Los Angeles team in the Pacific
Coast league and is regarded as among
the best in this position in the organ
ization He has been playing regularly
with the Los Angeles club since the
season of 1908, when he came here from
the Bloomington club of the Three-Eye
league to work a relief shift, when
Catcher Hogan, then with the Los An
geles club, was put out of the game
by an injury. In 1909. Orendorff was
put on the regular list, and has been
with the club ever since, excepting a
few weeks at the beginning of the 1910
season.
He was drafted from the Los An
geles club by the Chicago National
league club last October, but refused
to play with that team because of a
difference with the management re-
garding his salary, and he voluntarily
invited outlawry by the powers of or
ganized baseball by going to Bisbee,
Ariz., this spring to manage and play
with the club representing that city.
Henry Berry, owner of the Los An
geles club, was in need of an expert
enced catcher, and finally concluded
negotiations with President Charles
w. Murphy of the Chicago National
league club for the release of Oren-
dorff and the catcher returned to Los
Angeles and has been doing most of
the catching for the Angels since.
Orendorff resides here with his FAM
lily, and 1t ins probable that If he re-
covers he will come home for a layoff
of a fortnight. at least. Curtis Ber-
nard, right fielder for the Angel club,
was hit in the temple by pitched ball
a few weeks ago, and was unable to
play for more than a week afterward,
and it seems that Orendorff is more
seriously injured than was Bernard.
