CARDINAL SAT0LL|'S
LAST THOUGHT WAS
OF AMERICA
Was Possible Successor to
the Papal Chair.

ROME, Jan. 15.-Almost to the
hour of his death the Cardinal Sa-
tOlli discussed with the few who
were permitted to see him the af-
fairs of the church in the United
States, in which country he had a
profound interest
He remembered well the details
of his stay there and recently re-
lated how, before his appointment
as apostolic delegate, he had been
instructed by Pope Leo to interro-
gate American bishops concerning
the advisability of creating an
apostolic delegation at Washington
All opposed such a movement with
the exception of Archbishop Ire
land. To a friend from America
the dying man said:
Remember me to President
Taft and tell him that l hope the
day will come when the United
States and Italy will be allied,
Italy then being a republic"
The ecclesiastic's will is dated
June 25 last, and leaves all his es-
tate to a relative.
Cardinal Satolli was mentioned
as a possible successor to Pope
Leo XIII when the latter died. 1t
has been considered likely that had
he outlived the present pope, Plus
X, he would have had considerable
support among the cardinals in the
Conclave as his successor.

GERMANY GLAD
KA|SER'S GOING
To ENGLAND
Hope Visit There Will Help
Patch Up Serious Diff
ficulties.
BY HERBERT A WHITE

BERLIN, Jan. 15.-There is one
good reason why Germany will not
be sorry that the kaiser Is to pay
a visit to England at this moment,
and under circumstances which will
enable him to talk to the heads of
the state privately without the
rest of the world watching.
Everybody in this country real
ICES that the relations between
England and Germany are Just
about to undergo great change
either for better or worse.
During the last three months
since the accession of Bothmann-
Hollveg to the chancellorship the
two governments have become in
creasingly friendly; but the two
nations seem to be on worse terms
than ever.
BECOMING HOSTILE
Statesmen on both sides realize
that matters have almost come to
a head. Neither side wishes to
fight at the moment. But the re-
examinations of the last few years
have driven the two peoples into
a state of the intensest hostility,
where war is accepted as inevita-
BILE.
Just at present several matters
give opportunities for an Anglo
German rapprochement. For one
thing, the English and the Germans
have been cooperating in the from
tier fighting in southern Nigeria.
Each seems pleased with the 9TH
er, and when two men admire one
anothers' fighting, neither usually
is anxious to fight the other him.
self. Then again, it Is unquestion-
able that an informal agreement ex-
lists between Great Britain and
Germany for the purpose of a linn
itation Of ornaments.
This fact was first given to the
world by DR.. Paul Rohrbach, lee
turer on political economy at the
Berlin commercial high school a
few weeks ago. His statement was
Immediately denied on both sides.
Now unofficially it is acknowledged
as an accepted fact.
SPEAKER CENSURES RULERS
Rohrbach did not make his state
ment as being a matter for con-
graduation. On the contrary, he
regarded it as evidence of the be-
trayal of Germany by her rulers.
ITO buy off English opposition to
Germany in Mesopatamia," he said.
Germany has retarded the growth
of the great fleet for which every
German has made SO many sacri-
fees"
On this point he was right.
Mesopatamia Tor rather the Ques-
tion of the Bagdad railway was
er instance. of commercial policy
England's trump card. 1t is anoth-
in these days overriding the ordin-
airy foreign policy of a nation.

DIR. BUHNER AND HIS TELEVISION"

The image Of a white collar
would perhaps fall on three or four
adjacent "cells," and they would be
brightly Illuminated; the image of
dark eyebrow would fall on an
other, giving it dark. e., less
bright-illumination, and so on.
Your image, in fact, would be an
alyzed into 10000 tiny component
parts, and each selenium eye, ac-
cording to the brightness it saw,
would vary the strength of an elec-
trfc current sent through it to the
person watching for the television
image.
Sitting on chair at the other
end of the line, perhaps speaking
with you at the same time, he
would watch a screen almost iden-
tical in appearance with that used
for transmitting.
On this screen he would see any
movement. Whenever you changed
your position the movement would
be instantly telegraphed by the
watching selenium "eyes."
How the whole of the 10000 elec-
trio currents are transmitted in an
instant over the telephone wires
remains for the present a secret
which the inventor naturally de-
clines to give away, but he has DEM
,onstrated the practicability of his
scheme to large committee of

PARIS, Jan. 15.-Colonel Cecil
Lowther, formerly military attache
to the British embassy in Paris,
has just arrived here on his re-
turn home to England, bringing
news of the hunting party of ex-
President Roosevelt, which he Wis

statements, the president and his
son Kermit already have an ele-

Colonel Lowther was consider

ing failed to make a killing of any
consequence, though he has made
several expeditions in search of the

BELIEVES YOUNG
ENGL|SHMAN WAS
KILLED IN A DUEL

PARIS, Jan. ia secret inves-
tigation is being made into the
death of Earl Percy, under secre-
tary of state for England, who died
in the Northern railway station
here December 80 of an injury in
the side, shortly after his arrival.
1t Is the belief of the officials that
Percy was mortally wounded in a
duel not far from this city.
He was in terrible agony with q
pain in his side when his compan-
ions brought him into the hotel. No
visitors were permitted to enter his
room and 1t was given out at that
time that Percy died from pleurisy.
Another Englishman. whose
name the officers will not divulgc,
is being sought In connection with
the case and the companions OF the
young man are being held for inves-
tigation.

WAR HEREAFTER

No Time for Open Prepara-

Naval Expert.

BERLIN, Jan. 15.-Count Revent.
low, the eminent naval expert,
writing on the outbreak of war,
states:
"We in Germany must not be
blind to the fact that in naval war
fare the period of straightforward,
honest declarations of war, or of
open preparations for war, has
gone forever. 1t will certainly be
the object of the assailant to begin
hostilities by a surprising and, if
possible, a demoralizing blow
against the enemy. That must
never be forgotten.
"Regrettable as it may be, there
is today certainly no naval expert
who is not convinced that the next
naval war will begin with such a
breach of international law, and
at a moment when the enemy least
expects an attack"

CABLE NEWS FROM ACROSS THE TWO OCEANS
KAISER WILHELM SUFFERING WITH
AFFL|CT|0N THAT KILLED FATHER

kaiser made himself exceedingly
popular on account of his unaffect-
ed manner toward the people round
about. He strolled around like an
ordinary visitor and talked to the
villagers as though he were one OF
themselves. They, at all events,
do not imagine Kaiser Wilhelm as
the War Lord of Europe"
His stay on the former occasion
set him up in health for nearly the
whole of the year. For time his
throat scarcely seemed to trouble
him. On the present occasion, how
ever, his health Is much worse
than before, and it is feared much
longer stay will be necessary for
any material improvement to be
effected.
One reason for the anxiety of
the ordinary German in connection
with the health of the kaiser is that
it is known to affect his career as
whole so greatly. 1t is a known
fact that all his outbursts of eccen-
tricity before have occurred during
periods of. ill-health. So soon as
his throat and ears begin to trouble
him to any extent his natural irrl-
liability increases enormously, and
it is usually during one of these
fits of ill-temper that he does some
thing that startles Europe and Gre
ateS trouble.

BY Use of Metal Selenium
Photograph Produced
in 10000 Pieces.

BERLIN, Jan. 15.-By the inven-
tion of DR.. Buhler, a German scien-
tist, two people may some day be
able, when speaking on the tele-
phone, to see one another just as
clearly as though they were in the
same room.
1t is already possible to send al
most fairly good Photographic re-
production by telegraph. This new
discovery, "television," is in reality
only the telegraphing of a photo
graph instantaneously instead of in
10 Or II minutes.
The secret of television rests in
the almost human powers of the
metal, selenium, to appreciate light.
If you see white and black
object together, your eye transmits
to the brain the knowledge that one
is bright, the other dark.
The selenium cell used for tele.
vision is just like an eye, but 10000
cells would be used, so that your
head and shoulders, projected by a
lens onto a screen composed of
these 10000 eyes. would give to
each the impression of light and
slade corresponding to different
part of your figure.

GOVERNESS MADE,
TO STEAL BY
HYPNOTISM

LONDON, Jan. 15.-HypnOtic
suggestion was the remarkable de-
fense pleaded by Julia Gerber, a
governess, who was accused at the
Westminster police court of steal
ing articles from the Army and Ma
Wy stores, Victoria street.
Strange as it may appear" said
her lawyer, "she committed these
thefts at the suggestion OF a more
powerful will-that of a woman
who sometimes accompanied her.
She is the daughter of highly re-
spectacle Swiss gentleman, and
has been governess to the daughter
of Justin Chevasse, the private de-
tective, for five years. She is of
a timid disposition and easily prone
to the influence OF a stronger
mind"
DR.. Crichton Jackson said Miss
Gerber would be likely to act under
the influence of stronger mind,
and the magistrate stated that in
the circumstances he would accept
the recognizances of Mr.. Chevasse
and another person to bring her up
tor judgment if called upon within
six months.

penny stamps on him.
All the stamps We're forged, and
so we'll forged that they are. If
anything. better than the real ones.
The authorities have arrested two
accomplices of Cappellani, and
have reason to believe that the
gang has disposed of more than a
million of these forged stamps in
cafes and tobacco shops of Paris.
Their method was to borrow GER
tain sums of money from the shop
keepers and to leave stamps as Sc
curity, pretending to be govern

CYCLE PLANE" To
FLY LIKE BIG BIRD
Flying Machine to Be Pro
PEELED by Pedals Latest
British Invention.

LONDON, Jan. ia man pro-
PEELED aeroplane is the latest inven-
tion which has been brought to an
accomplished fact.
The total area of the machine is
100 square feet, and it weighs about
so pounds. The length of wings
from tip to tip is 20 feet. The pro-
peller can be worked to give 600
revolutions in the air by process
of pedalfng. as on an ordinary
cycle, and when in the air a de-
scent can easily be made at the de-
sire of the aerial cyclist.
The ends of the wings are NOV
able, and are controlled from a
Handbar by wires, which, it is
claimed, will easily control the ma
chine in flight. The tail is also
moved in the same way. The shape
of the aeroplane resembles that of
bird, and a running start is nee
essary on the summit of rising
ground.

STONE AGE STATUE
1000 YEARS OLD
UNEARTHED

BERLIN, Jan. 15.-The Vossiche
Zeitung says that in the course of
excavations conducted by the
Museum of Silesian Antiquities at
Ottitz. near Ratibor, a clay figure
representing a nude female divinity
was unearthed in a Stone Age
dwelling. The figure is over 1000
years old.
This figure, though so old, can
not be considered the oldest in the
world. Very accurately modelled hui
man figures were sculptured or
carved by the Egyptians in the re-
motest antiquity. In the Boulak
museum. Cairo, there is small
male statuette in wood, known as
THE Village Sheik." 1t is believed
to be about 5000 years old. A copy
of it is in the British museum.
