ALEXANDRIA, VA.
FRIDAY EVENING, JULY ;.

Mr.. RoosEvELT's adherence OF mur
der-in Egypt-and his contention that
political assassination demonstrates that
a people-in Egppt-is unfit Tor sell
government brings forth a reply from
the Manchester, England, Guardian.
II cites the international statistics OF
homicide, with the sad result OF show
ing that the rate per million for the
United States is ten or twelve times
higher than in any country OF Europe.
Chicago, with two millions, has as
manv murders i'm a year as has India,
with three hundred millions. Nor IN
the matter Of political assasslnauons
are our witheIs unwrung. The Guard
ian recalls the murder Of the governor
OF Kentucky and of the lieutenant gov
ernor of South Carolina, and puts the
malicious inquiry: IF you cannot
keep order, you must get out, says
Mr.. Roosevelt. In that case, what ma
ton will take over the government OF
the United States ?" The above Is un-
ansyerable. The Guardian could have
referred to the steadily increasing num-
Der Of lynchings, the crimes OF night
riders. etc, which are a disgrace to our
institutions. In our endeavors to
Christianize China, Japan, Korea,
India. Africa and other countries, we
seem to lose sight Of the fact that our
country, Notwithstanding its aim
to be foremost among civilized nations,
is still an extensive mission field.

VIRGINIA DAY AT GETTYSBURG.

Yesterday was Virginia Day in the
camp Of instructions on the battle
field at Gettysburg. Gov. Mann arrived
at 1915 yesterday forenoon and at the
station was met by Brig. Gen. Vaughan.
Of the Virginia contingent, in Gen.
Wotherspoon's automobile.
When the governor reached the Vir-
ginia encampment he found the place
practically deserted except for guards
and several details who were doing pO-
lice duty, Their cheers Of welcome
sounded quite feeble to those that wei
coined the governor on the rsturn of the
troops from their mornings work at
squadron and regimental exercises in
attack.
After a tour Of the Virginia camp
Gov. Mann was taken TO the scene OF
the battle between the Red and Blue
armies of regulars about three miles
from camp. p
Upon his return to headquarters, the
governor was given the governors sa-
lutte by the Third United States artillery.
After dinner Mr.. Mann was taken
through the entire ehcampment by Gen.
Wotherspoon and his staff and later
reviewed a dress parade by the Virginia
guardsmen. The whole OF the forces
on the grounds was engaged in a sham
battle today. At 10 O'Clock the forces
were divided into two armies, n the
Blue, under command of Brig. G. g..
Vaughan, Of the Virginia troops, and
the other the Red, under command OF
Colonel Mansfield. ofthe Second United
States Infantry. The Blues we're sta
toned at Granite Hill, about two miles
from camp, on the York pike. AT |
O'Clock the information was received
from a friendly farmer that an enemy
was approaching. The battle was then
begun.
The position held by General Sapg-
han and his men is the key to Gettys-
burg, so they may be termed the de.
tenders Of the town. With General
Vaughan on the defense was Troop A
of Maryland and the whole Virginia
brigade, consisting Of the First, Second
and Fourth Regiments and the three
batteries of artillery. They also had
the assistance oftwo batteries from the
Third United States Field Artillery.
There also wa a company Of engineers
and an ambulance company. i
The attacking army, under Colonel
Mansfield, have the aid OF the Fifteenth
United States Cavalry, the Second
United States Infantry, the Twenty
ninth United States knfantry. the First
and Fifth Maryland Regiments and one
OF the Third Field Artillery.
There also was a company OF engineers
and an ambulance company,
The attacking paEty bad about 5000
men and the defense about $500,

IT may be a much more difficult
task to raise the wreck of the Maine
now than it would have been years ago.
But it is this governments WI fault
that it was not raised years ago, and 1t
would be a shabby performance to
plead neglect as an excuse for doing
the job now in an unsatisfactory man
ner. In this connection the New York
Tribune says THE commercial in
terests of Havana harbor might be
adequately served by breaking up the
wreck and removing it piecemeal, but
the honor Of the nation demands an
other course. Even if it a costly Job,
the Maine should be raised as nearly
intact as the skill of engineers permits. ~
The opposition of those in authority to
the raising of the wreck can be but for
one reason and that lest it would be
shown that the Maine was blown up
ftom the inside.

THE record in detail Of the bills and
resolutions introduced and acted upon
at the late session of Congress is sus-
prising one. Perhaps the most suspris-
ing and significant feature OF 1t is the
fact that no less than GAO private PEN
sion bills were passed, the largest
number ever put through at any SEES
sion. If the annual value Of each OF
these pensions is placed at the low
figure of 500 this e an addition
Of 1914, 600 TO the annual pension bur
den Of the country. The explanation
of the phenomenon, says the Phila-
delphia Record, is thes approach OF a
general election and the desperate
straits Of the republican party. Every
pension bill that had even half a leg
OF apparent merit 10 stand upon was
hustled through in the hope of making
a republican vote or two.

Masaneraded as a Man.

London July S.-The officials who
conducted the inquest into the death o
Harry Lloyd, " strange woman, who
for forty years posed as the husband Of
her sister, expressed the opinion today
that the woman had practiced the de-
ception to save the honor Of her sister
and Of the Iatter's daughter.
The inquest developed with practical
certainty that Harry Lloyd was
Marie lie Roy, the daughter Of a
Belgian army officer. She came to
London nearly fifty years ago and as
ISOLATED herself with the late Austin
Holpoke, the founder Of the old Hall OF
Science, and other advanced thinkers,
among them John Stuart Mill. She
earned her living by teaching French,
German and Flemish and by writing.
Thirty years ago Marie lie Roy
dropped Of sight and Harry Lloyd
appeared. Inquiries were made in
educational circles for Miss lie Roy,
but no one knew where she was and
she was soon forgotten. Harry Lloyd"
was also a teacher Of French, German
and Flemish. He lived with his wife,
Eliza Lloyd. A child was born to
Eliza Lloyd shortly after her appear
ance in London. The mother died 20
years ago. Father" and daughter
continued to live together. No one
guessed, not even the child Elizabeth,
that Harry Lloyd and Marie lie
Roy we're one and the same, but the
inquest has developed the dual identity
Harry Lloyd" was 70 years old
when she died and had been cared for
by her supposed daughter Elizabeth in
the latter years Of her life.

spain and lhe Vatican.

Madrid, July S.-The bill %forbidding
anv more religious orders to enter Spain
until the dispute between the govern
ment and the Vatican regarding the
revision of the Concordat is settled was
introduced in the Cortes today. 1t was
drawn by Premier Canaleias and was
signed yesterday by King Alfonso.
The disposition made Of the bill, which
will be strongly supported by the re-
publicans, will 60 n long way toward
determining whether the king and the
premier are really sincere in their talk
Of limiting the state church's power.
Many people are accusing them OF in
sincerity but the majority believe that
they really want to do something but
that no hope for sweeping reforms may
be expected so long as the monarchy
survives.
Defiance Of the governments
position is still shown by the c%lericals.
The archbishops and bishops have
gone so far as to write to the premier
that the foundation and therefore
the dissolution Of the religious estab-
lishments which have the approval Of
the church is independent Of the will
Of the state" The outspokenness OF
the clericals has convinced some Of the
politicians that the churchmen know
that they can CONT on the kings
support should a crisis arise. SO far,
however, the king has openly shown
his advocacy of the premier's plan for
curtailing the power Of the church
and has worked in perfect harmony
with Canalejas.
Many disorders have already oc-
CURED as the result of the governments
stand against the religious orders and
Canelajas's demand that non-Catholic
churches be allowed to display the en-
blems OF their faith.
The forces that have been at work
since the war with the United State
have almost reached their triumph in
the low growing opposition to the
church's denomination.
