THE VAT|CAN's REPLY
TO SPANISH NOTE
PAPAL SECRETARY HAS 1T IN
PREPARATION
Rome Believes That Spain Will Not
Approve Religious Reforms.

Rome, Aug "a note which Cardin-
al Merry del VAL the papal secretary
of state, is preparing in answer to that
OF Premier Canalejas will be submitted
to the congregation of extraordinary
affairs. The contents of the note will
be kept secret.
The Giornale d'Italia published an
interview with Cardinal Vinceno Van
nutelli, who describes Premier Canale-
jas as "a terrible man." adding that ii
is impossible that King Alfonso ap-
prove his anti-clerical policy.
Cardinal Vannutelli goes on to point
out that the king is a fervent Catho-
lie with a bit of sentiment and tradi-
ton, but too young TO grapple with the
situation and must be seriously en-
barrassed.
He adds that the Spanish people
themselves disapprove of the policy of
the premier, as shown by the attitude
of the people of Bilbao and other i'm
portant places.

FEARFUL OF THE WOMEN.

Madrid, Aug. 3.-Field Marshal Lo-
pei Dominguez, who is eX-president of
the senate and ex-premier, in an in
terview today said he would support
Premier Canalejas in his struggle for
religious reforms. but he doubted the
success of the movement on account
of the immense power of the clergy
and their influence over the women,
who, he declared, are completely under
the domination of their confessors.
THE openness with which Premier
Canalejas is conducting the campaign"
said the field marshal, "is one of the
best features of the situation. He wants
Spain and the world to know what he
is doing. II he succeeds he will have
rendered an immense service to
Spain"

MAN OF SILENCE"
PROBABLY INNOCENT
OF CRIME FOR WHICH HE GOT
LIFE SENTENCE.
But As He is Dead, Proof of His
Innocence Will Do Him
Little Good.

Canon City, Colo, Aug. 3.-That
John Devine, known in the peniten-
tiary as the Man of Silence" who
died in the prison hospital about a
year ago, after having served SIX
years of a life sentence, for the al
legged wrecking of a Santa Fe train,
near Fowler, may be shown to have
been innocent as a result of the arrest
of G.. NJ. Gernbrush, a sailor, at
Portland. is the belief of those ia
miIiar with Devine's story.
Devine was taken into custody at
the scene of the wreck, having been
found asleep in a clump of bushes
100 Yards away. He was tried on the
charge of wrecking the train. for the
purpose of robbing the company and
other persons, was found guilty and
sentenced to life Imprisonment.
Gernbrush who was on furlough
from a training ship. while in his
cups. boasted of knowledge of a train
wreck in Colorado. He was arrested
and the next morning when sober,
reluctantly furnished the details which
have apparently fixed the wreck as
the one for which Devine was SEN
fenced to fe>lmprisonment. He de-
clared he knew those responsible
for the accident. Whether Devine
was among them is unknown.
Devine himself, from the moment
the prison gates closed, refused to
talk, maintaining silence even when
the governor tried to interview him.
Officers left tonight for Portland to
bring Gernbrush to Colorado.

Iowa Senator to Oppose
Administration Bill
Though Il May Result in Read

Washington, March 15.-That he
would oppose the administration rail-
road bill. even though it might result
in an effort to read him out Of the
party Senator Cummins, of Iowa in
effect, declared in the Senate today.
He was making the initial speech on
the railroad bill, which he said had
originated in the executive branch of
the government rather than in Con-
greSs.
The Iowa senator had proceeded for
about two hours, when he asked leave
to suspend his speech until tomorrow.
The leave was granted. but Senator
Hale. chairman of the Republican eau
Gus, gave notice that hereafter the bill
would be kept constantly before the
Senate. In the main. Mr.. Cummins'
speech was devoted to q general review
of the railroad measure but 1t was
preceded by recital of the history of
the proposed legislation. in which he
criticized the course of the President
and declared his intention of opposing
the bin in its present shape even at
the expense of the severe displeasure

he was dealing with the same subject
in his message in 1905 he said:
