ROYAL WELCOME TO LEGATE
All Montreal Unites in Reception
to Cardinal Vannutelli.

Montreal, Quebec, Sept. 3.-Business was
suspended here to-day, the shops closed
and all the city turned out into the streets,
undeterred by a pouring rain, to welcome
Cardinal Vannutelli, Papal legate TO the
EGcharistic Congress, which opens here
next Monday and closes the following Sum
day.
When his ship, the government tender
Lady Grey, was sighted, six miles down
the St. Lawrence River, the bells of the
Cathedral Cf Notre Dame broke into full
peal
At $50 O'Clock in the afternoon the Lady
Grey docked. She had been due at .
O'Clock When the envoy extraordinary set
foot on land, a great cheer went up from
the crowd, both in French and English.
The initial ceremonies OF the formal re-
ception at the dock We're abridged because
OF the rain. They were resumed at the
City Hall. where the Mayor delivered his
address of welcome, and the Cardinal re-
Piled in French. In his drive from the dock
TO the City Hall he rode between solid
walls of cheering French and Irish Ca
nadians.
The Cardinals reply to the Mayor was a
warm tribute to Canada and to the Catholic
immigrants who. settling there, had
brought with them the faith of their
fathers and had clung to it as their rich
est heirloom.
The Cardinal will be the guest of Mon
slgnor Bruchesi, Archbishop of Montreal.

MARTIN CHARGES ANSWERED
Governor General Forbes Says
Facts Were Distorted.

Manila, Sept. 3.-When Jacob II. Dickin-
son, Secretary OF War, sailed for Hong
Kong yesterday he took with him an ex-
tended report enbodying the answer of the
Philippine government to the charges made
by Representative Martin. of Colorado,
against z. L. Worcester, member of the
Philippine Commission, and Frank W.
Carpenter, executive secretary Of the Phil
ippine government, in connection with the
friar land leases.
The report includes statements by Gov
ernor General Forbes and Messrs. Worces-
ter and Carpenter. The Governor General
says that Mr.. Martin distorted the facts in
order TO discredit worthy acts and dis
agrees with the conclusions of the Con-
gresham.
Mr. Worcester asserts that Mr.. Martin

RIGHT TO FORT|FY CANAL
Frenchmen Admit Justice OF Mr.
RooseveIt's Contentious.
AN ENGLISH OBJECTION
Surprise Expressed at the State
Department Over Possibility
of a Protest.
fRr Cable to ThA Tribune.

Paris, Sept. 3.--Mr. Roosevelt's omaha
sneech. urging the necessity for the
United States to fortify the Panama
Canal Is eagerly discussed here and
causes quite a f1utter in diplomatic
circles. There is, however, only one
opinion in regard to such measure
among the best French military and
naval authorities, and that is that from
a purely technical strategic point or
view Mr.. Roosevelt Is emphatically right
If the United States wishes in case OF
war to have it's fleets pass through the
Panama Canal.
An eminent French admiral says that
in the event Of a war between the United
States and Japan the naturalization OF
the Panama Canal would expose the
United States fleet in the Pacific ocean
t. destruction by the fleets of Japan.
Naval officers here agree that military
control of the Panama Canal by fort-
fications or otherwise is a vital neces-
sity for the United States navy, and
that the control of this waterway is far
more important for the United States
than the control of the Suez Canal is for
Great Britain.

KING MEETS MINISTERS
Veto Conference May Reach
Agreement Before Coronation.
NEW GERMAN WAR SCARE
British Public, However, Refuses
To Be Alarmed by Reported
Designs on Holland.
LIZ anla n The Tribune.

London, Sept 3.-The only centre OF
politicaI interest is BalmoraL Where the
,nerobers of the veto conference are
turning IN week t,y week. David Lloyd
George. Chancellor of the Exchequer, on
his return from the Continent to-mor-
row will take the Prime Minister'S place
as minister in attendance, and Loru
Crewe will succeed him in the course OF
a fortnight The King is keeping IN
close touch with those who are attempt
ing to settle the constitutional question
Lord Cawdor, who has been conductlhs
negotiations with Augustine Birrell' Will
be one Of the guests at Balmoral before
the end of September.
The Kings influence in effecting a
settlement before the coronation may be
as strong as his fathers was in winding
up the Boer War by timely concessions.
Members Of Parliament of both parties,
after consulting the local leaders, bear
testimony that the country is not vitality
interested in the constitutional Issue
and wants the field cleared for general
legislation and the normal development
of party policies.
Political discussion is SO barren that
the newspapers have been forced far
afield for sensations. THE Daily Mail"
after making full use Of socialist"
Blatchford and Admiral Mahan. has
found powerful ally in a member Of its
own staff for its campaign against Ger
many. William Maxwell is the best ex-
pert among the recent war correspond
ents, and has written with precision and
without exaggeration a series Of weighty
articles about the German advance
toward Holland al Borkum.
The public here has become accus-
toned to these periodical outbreaks
against the rapidly increasing power Of
the German navy, and is not frightened
by them, since there is continuous evil
dence that the Admiralty is not neglect
ing its responsibilities for the rapid de-
velopment of resources Of sea power;
nor is It disturbed by Lord Eshers dis
covery that the territorial army cannot
be depended on for national defence
and that the necessity for considering
the question of compulsory service has
become urgent.
Two conclusions from these alarums
and excursions are irresistible. Mr.
Haldanes scheme is not likely to be
changed under a Liberal government
and a Unionist ministry will hesitate
long before ordering conscription and
appointing Lord Kitchener as a military
Minister Of War. Moreover, Holland
would be more inclined to take a seri-
Gus view of Mr.. MaxwelTs expert advice
if Denmark had been properly supported
by England and France when invaded
and despoiled of the duchies which have
now become the nurseries Of German
naval power.

MORE JEWISH RESTRICTIONS
Only 101 Out of 5000 Students Allowed
in st. Petersburg Higher Schools.

Warsaw, Aug. 25--M. Schwartz. Minister
of Education. has issued trenchant reguIa-
tfons TO Jewish students, who will now be
under still greater disadvantages than be-
fore Hitherto per cent of the total num-
ber of pupils in any educational establish
r!ent could be OF the Jewish faith. Now,
computing that the advanced schools IN St
Petersburg contain 5000 students he has
ordered that only 1O1 of this number shall
be Jews.
The result of this change Is that when
the autumn term begins the School of Fine
Arts Will retain only one Jew. while the
School of Mines. which trains engineers for
the whole OF Russia, is to receive none at

ENGLAND'S CORPORATIONS
Comment on Mr.. Roosevelt-The
Tribune's Views Widely Quoted.
rRv Cable 10 The Tribune. J

London, Sept. 3.-Over two thousand
American first class passengers are SAIL
ing either to-day or tomorrow Tor Ne"
York or Boston by nine steamships. and
the bookings are equally heavy for the
rest OF September. While there are
no empty berths on outgoing ships ar
rangements for filling them were nade
months ago, and the tremendous rush
of ocean travel inconveniences only
those who plan sudden journeys across
the Atlantic.
Americans waiting for ships have re-
ceived instruction from the Liberal press
respecting the intolerable burdens OF
protection to which they are returning,
and have also observed the UnloniSt
warning that the British Empire cam
not be federated and maintained as a
going concern without the abandonment
of free trade and the adoption or de-
fensive tariffs. They might also be ne-
wildered by the comments Of the BRUSH

British reflections on Mr. Roosevelt S
anti-corporation crusade are not salted
with morals drawn from experience. IN
dustrial amalgamations here pass With
out observation, and there are no re-
sources of British law for preventing
them. The collapse of an Ill considered
banking combination during the week
has attracted much attention, but there
are no signs Of uneasiness over the ANAL
gamation Of the Rhodesian companies on
the lines Of the Rand companies or the
increas sing tendency Of industrial and
manufacturing interests, such as the
Daimler Company and the Birmingham
Small Arms Company, to JOIN forces.
The week closes with a renewal OF the
run1ors that three cable companies Will
be amalgamated speedily, and there is
cumulative evidence that neither the
British constitution nor CObdenism Of
fers safeguards for the maintenance of
unrestricted competition and the pre-
vention Of systematized concentration of

Paris. Sept. 3.-The grand maneuvres

Owing to the recent, severe criticism
of the IebeI rifle, which has been In use
since 1856, the French infantry has no"
lost confidence in its weapon, which IS
the oldest model of rifle in use in Euro
mean armies. The Lebel Is a magazine
rifle. but does not admit Of continuous
automatic firing. as is required by up
to-date infantry tactics. When the
Lebel magazine is exhausted it becomes
merely an ordinary single firing breech-
loader. Moreover, Emperor William mas
already decided to demand from the
German parliament after the next cleo
tions credit to manufacture new
rife for the German army.
In view of these facts the French gov
ernment has practically decided to sup
ply to the French infantry new rifle
pronounced an ideal weapon by General
Brun, Minister of War. The Chamber
of Deputies at once will be asked to vote
funds for this change. which, for four
million rifles and four milliards Of car
tridges, will at the lowest estimate cost
S12O,OOO,OG0 and will require at least
four years to manufacture. This will
make an increase in the French military
budget of $4,000 900 each year for four
years. OF course, the model of this new
ideal rifle is kept a profound secret.

Paris. Aug 26.-The league for the pro-

in a report which it has just issued has a
good word to say for the femme cocher -

The officers of the league have found that
the women treat their horses much better
and show them more consideration than
do their masculine rivals. II is rarely that
the women drivers use the whip. and the
inspectors of the league say they have often
found women caressing their horses while
waiting for a fare.
With the men the whip IS the only arg1l-

it into his head to bolt-for it Is generally
too weak physically TO run very fast-it has
been found that the poor animal has been
tortured INTO madness by the lash
