TARDY TlBETAN JUSTICE
A Hootookatoo Reincarnated-
Country Quiet.

Peking. June 24-Tardy justice is TO be
done to q Tibetan Hootookatoo, a high
priest of Buddhism, who lost his head when
he incurred the dispIeasure OF the deposed
Dalai Lama. the religious head of the Buddh-
ists who fed from Lhasa, the capital of
Tibet last spring. He is to be reincarnat-
ed. and his titles and wealth are to be re-
stored
This is ordered in All imperial edict issued
to-day by Prince Chun. the Regent OF
China More important however, from an
international point of view. is the conclIr-
rent announcement by the Peking officials
that affairs in Tibet are satisfactory. The
recent selection of an infant Dalai Lama
has left spiritual authority in the hands OF
four kanbus. or cardinals, who remained
at Lhasa when the former Dalai Lama fed.
The government considers 1t improbable
that the four will ever plot against the
Chinese Resident.
The imperial edict. made public in the
name of the Son of Heaven, sets forth that
the Hootookatoo, that is. one Of the saints
of the highest class. was decapitated three
years ago. The throne finds now that It
was deceived by the Dalai Lama, who
caused the execution on the ground that
the high priest had attempted the formers
saints are reputed to be especially gifted.
Recently the lesser lan1as memorialized the
throne divuIging the fact that the Dalai
Lama had sought to extort large sums of
money from the Hootookatoo. Failing in
his attempt at extortion. the religious ruler
brought about the others death
The process of reincarna ton will be sim
liar to that of a Dalai Lama. Infants Of
a certain blood displaying signs that they
possess the same soul as did the deceased
will be assembled and their names will
be written on slabs of wood, which will be
sealed These will be placed in a large urn
of precious metal from which the High
Lama will draw by chance one of the
names. The identity of the reincarnation
will be greeted by the populace with shouts
of joy
The edict further provides that the saint
hood of the HootookatoO shall be restored
and that his treasure. confscated by the
Dalai Lama. shall be returned to the in
FAINT Hootookatoo. A regency of lamas Will
act for the reincarnated one until his ma

VATICAN'S PLEA IGNORED
Spain Upholds Decree-Chance
of Papal Modification.

Madrid. June 24.-Premier CanaIejas an
nounced at the close of the Cabinet meet
ing to-day that the governments religious
programme would be carried out He said
that the protest of the Vatican against the
imperial decree OF June II would be fg-
nored and that the decisions of the gov
eminent already announced would stand
A seni-offciaI announcement made to-
night indicates that the government, desir-
ing an amicabls settlement of the contro-
versy. will give the Vatican an opportunity
TO modify its attitude regarding its pro-
test
It is set forth that Premier Canalejas
held King Alfonso 10 his promise. made
when the Premier took power. that he
would approve the governments course.
and explains that the government intends
to pursue uniinchingly the course which
it considers civilization demands, and
counts on the support Of all Liberals.
The royal decree of June II amended the
constitution and authorized the edif1ces OF
non-Catholic religious societies TO display
the insignia for public worship The PapaI
protests were coupled with the negotiations
between the government and Rome for the
revision Of the concordat. The Vatican
has now replied, and after setting forth
that Il maintains that the decree is a vio-
Iatfon of the concordat and the engage
ments of previous ministries declines cate
gorically to continue the negotiations over
the revision until this point Is settled.
The Catholic objection 10 the decree is
on the ground that the government should
maintain the status quo pending the out

CHINA GETS MORE OPIUM
Higher Prices Cause Reship-
ments of Drug.

Peking. June 24-According to the re-
turns Of the Imperial Maritime Customs,
the amount Of Indian opium brought into
China In 1909 the second year of the Chino
British reduction agreement, was greater
by many thousands of pounds than in 1903,
though the returns for 1903 had shown the
promised dininution from the figures Of
1907 1t is believed that the increase is
being maintained, though the figures for
the present year are not yet obtainable.
Though Great Britain is adhering to her
part of the agreement with China to re-
dUce by one-tenth the annual supply of
opium shipped direct to China from India,
the quantity coming into China indirectly
is greater than ever before. The price of
the drug, which has been advanced seven
or eight times since the reduction agree
ment went into effect. is the reason for
the endeavor on the part of Indian mer-
chants to keep up the trade. The necessity
for the increase in the Importation OF opium
is due to the drastic suppression of home
cultivation Of the poppy. There are in
stances where local officials are reported
to have shot farmers who defied the i'm
perial edict prohibiting planting.
The British Legation here does not deny
the accuracy of the general statement OF
out that the present enormous profits 10
be derived from the sale of opium cause
reshipments of the drug 10 be made to
China from all parts of the globe, the ma
terial being originally intended for medI-
Cinal purposes
The Chinese government at present Is in
a controversy with Great Britain over the
question of provincial monopoIies. which,
the government contends, will enable 1t to
control the sale of the drug TO licensed per
sons only. The British Legation. however,
says 1t cannot trust the Chinese to fulfil
their pledges, and therefore will not per-
NIT control Of the traffic TO pass into their
hands 1t is contended also that China is
unable to act contrary to treaty rights OF
former years giving trading privileges to
the British at all treaty ports
The Chinese, in turn. argue that opium is
not a legitimate article OF trade. but 70 this
the British reply that the Chinese them
selves have been largely instrumental in
the growth of what now have become vest
ed rights. and that these must be pro-
