the writer's credibility is of any
value whatever, as relates to Mr..

cation that not only did Mr.. Howard
have nothing to do with that article,
but the article, in its intent and pur-
pose, had nothing to do with Mr..
Howard and that it had never en-
tered the mind of the writer that it
could be so construed. On the con-
trary, the main purpose of the ar

paper was on guard against an at

made at the coming election to re-

Protests Innocence.

San Francisco, Aug I.-Joseph

chial school in Louisville, charged
with the murder Of eight-year-old

tend mass at St. Johns church.

FACING A CRISIS IN SPAIN
Breaking of of Diplomatic Relations
With. Vatican May Lead to
Civil War.

Madrid, Aug. 1--we do not fear
the threat of Civil war. The king and
the Spanish democracy support u.s."
This message was telegrapned to
the press of Spain by Premier Can
alejas. 1t is the prime minister's bold
defiance to Don jaime, the pretender
to the Spanish throne, who issued a
proclamation to his followers, saying
that TIE governments break with the
Vatican was the signal for battle and
that he would lead the fight.
Excitement in the capital and
throughout Spain is intense over the
conflict with Vatican, which came to
a head with the decision of Premier
Canalejas to recall the Spanish am
bassador to the Vatican.
Both the governmental and clerical
parties have accepted the challenge to
battle and the situation, complicated
by the intrusion of Don Jaime may,
under existing conditions, easily de-
velop acute features. Already the
government is taking precautionary
measures and prohibiting demonstra-
tons from which disorder might re-
suit.

A Repair Company Through Collision
With Roads Employees More Than
Double Repair Bills.

Chicago, Illinois.-The story of how
the Illinois Central railway was vic
timized out of at least $1,000,000 by
padded car repair bills was continued
before Master in Chancery Roosevelt
B. Mason. Only the details of the
frauds as they were worked in one OF
the several plants had been given, but
they were revelation of brazen
thefts. No mention was made OF
Rawn or any men higher up"
The testimony was given by Harold
A. Sims, who was, for year, super
intendent of the Memphis Car com
pany He told how:
Officers of the Illinois Central and
the repair company were in collision
to defraud the Illinois Central.
Inspectors sent by the Illinois Cen
trail were bribed and hoodwinked
while their employers were robbed.
Even the plant of the Memphis Car
company was built of material stolen
from the Illinois Central.
Repairs on broken cars were made
by material from other cars, the ILL
nofs Central being charged as for new
material.
Good order cars from which parts
were stolen to repair bad order cars
were repaired, the company being
charged with material used in both

STOCKHOLM PEACE CONGRESS
Momentous oestions Affecting tho
Whole World Are to Be Dis
cussed by Delegates.

Stockholm, Sweden.-Owing to the
worldwide agitation for universal
peace, special significance is attached
to the eighteenth international peace
congress which opened in this city.
At no time in the history of civiliza-
ton Las the outlook been so ouspici-
Gus for the adjustment of warfare,
and for this reason the discussion at
this convention promises to be the
most interesting ever heard on this
subject.
Among the important subjects being
discussed are the following: The
probable establishment of the court OF
arbitral justice; the possibility of an
international agreement for the limi-
tation of armament, which has been
foreshadowed in ex-President Roose-
velt's Nobel address; the gradual
change Of public opinion in Great
Britain in favor of the immunity
from capture of enemy's merchant
ships at sea in time of war, meas.
ure that if passed will do away with
the necessity of naval protection from
commerce and therefore greatly re-
duce ornaments; the removal from
the category OF war of questions of
national honor, for which the public
mind has been prepared by President
Taft's recent speech, and the grow
ing demand for treaty provisions
pledging the nations not to take ter
ritory from each other by conquest,
fear of annexation and of violation
of sovereignty having been hitherto
the chief cause of war preparations.
