WHO WILL BUY OLD
bATTLESH|PS
NAVY DEPARTMENT HAS SEW
ERAL ON HAND WHICH WERE
FIRST CLASS NOT LONG AGO
BUT ARE OUT OF DATE NOW.

Washington, April 5.-While the
navy department and it's aides are de-
handing the expenditure of $40, 1000
900 for more dreadnaughts and for
other naval expenditures, they are up
against the problem of how to quietly
dispose of a number of battleships
and cruisers built few years ago at
a cost of many millions and now
ready for the scrap heap. How to
get them out of the way without at
tracing the attention of the taxpay-
ers is the problem.
The expenditure of these vast sums
to make decks for the naval marines
to strut for few years and then send
them to the scrap heap, is not meet
ing with the hearty approval of the
people who pay the bills.

Census enumeration begins April

mercial club to assist in the work

The board of trustees met last
night and voted to appoint a commit
tee to take the matter up. The
committee will be announced tomor-
row. 1t will cooperate with the
enumerators to the extent of getting
the churches, press and schools to
start a campaign of education, on
account of the reluctance of many
citizens to give information. Some
have expressed a fear that the GEN.
sus man and tax collector used the
same books and the accuracy of the
census report is liable to be i'm
paired if all doubts in that line are
not allayed.

COMMON LAW WIFE OF ENGLISH
PEER AWARDED PROPERTY
WORTH NEARLY ONE MILLION
DOLLARS.

Galveston, Texas, April 5.-Follow-
ing the announcement of the sale OF
part of the estate of Lord Deleval
Beresford to William and Edward
Warren of Michigan comes the report
that the negress who lived with Lord
Beresford for many years and claimed
to be his common-law wife has re-
ceived sum of money and about
100000 acres of land, valued at more
than a half million dollars, in settle
ment of her claims. She has about
10000 acres under cultivation and

ago in Canada.
Following a trip to England a year
ago, when the negress attempted to

FORTUNE To FIGHT
LOAN SHARKS
WIDOW OF MILLIONAIRE WILL
ESTABLISH CHAIN OF MODEL
LOAN ESTABLISHMENTS FOR
BENEFIT OF POOR.

New York, April 5.-Mrs. Russell
Sage is to devote some of the mill
lions left by her husband to saving
the poor and needy of this state from
the usury of loan sharks. The Sage
millions are to be used to capitalize
chain of model loan establishments
which will advance money on chat
tel mortgages at the legal rate Of in
terest.
The Sage foundation, cooperating
with Grin H. Cheney, state superin-
tendent of banks, has prepared the
plan and it only awaits the final ap-
proval of Mrs. Sage. She has just
returned from trip across the CONT
nent and is expected to settle the final
details of the plan at once.
According to Cheney the new loan
Offices will not only be of inestimable
benefit to the poor, but will drive the
usurers and loan sharks out of bust
ness or at least cripple them. He has
been engaged for some time in waging
war on these loan sharks AMI is very
thankful for the aid preferred by Mrs
Sage.
when the Sage foundation enters
this field" he said today, cit will not
only accomplish worthy mission, but
it can be made financially profit
able.
Those concerns which take such
unfair advantage of the unfortunates
who are financially embarrassed will
be either driven out of business or
forced to conduct their business on
the same basis as the Sage founda-
ton"
Cheney said he believed the poor
who get loans on their furniture
should be cared for in preference to
the classes that get advances on their
salaries. The former class is invari-
ably more worthy of protection and
assistance, he said.
A representative Of the Sage foun-
dation has been studying the methods
of loan associations in the state for
some time under the direction of the
state superintendent of banks.
One of the many desperate cases
that came to his attention was that
of an old woman in Albany who bor-
rowed $40 three years ago. While
unable to pay of the principal, she
has turned over to the association,
$40 in interest Superintendent
Cheney has put that concern out of
business.

Roosevelt Provoked That Personal Incident Should
Have Caused so Great Religious Hostility
Cancels the Reception to Americans
Scheduled for Tomorrow

Rome, April 5.-RoOsevelt is not
in the happiest mood today on ac-
count of his wish for a Vatican audi
ence The incident to be regarded
as personal to him has not been res
pected and he was intensely annoyed.
About the first thing he did was to-
call off the reception to the mem
bers of the American colony which
had been set for tomorrow night.
This action can be traced directly to
the issuance yesterday of statement
by Rev. B. M. Triple, pastor of the
American Methodist church, in which
opportunity was taken for an attack
upon the Roman church. Roosevelt
does not propose to be used by any
one to the disparagement of anyone
else. Triples statements displeased
many American Catholics, who forth
with manifested their intention of
abandoning the purpose to attend the
reception if the Methodist organiza-
ton, represented by Triple, was pres
ent.
The matter was carried to Roose-
welt who, after hearing both sides
| promptly asked Ambassador Leish-
man to cancel the whole affair, and
this was done.
The sensation at the determina-
| ton of Roosevelt not to be received
| by the pope on terms made by HIM
self continues undated. The press
| have filled columns on the subject.
The papers of all shades of politi-
cal opinion with the exception of the
clerical organs support Roosevelt's
attitude. Some of the anti-clerical
sheets intimate that the affair may
result in the downfall of the papal
secretary. These papers are appar-
entity trying to arouse a great anti
clerical demonstration to be made at
the railroad station when Roosevelt
leaves the city Wednesday night.
None of these movements have the
sympathy of Roosevelt, who is ex-
ceedingly put out that a personal in
cident should have excited the ex-
hibition of that very religious hos
tility which he so greatly deprecated.
Roosevelt was again besieged by
newspaper men today. They sought
to draw from him an intimation of
his attitude towards the administra-
ton of Taft He was told of reports
circulated in the United States that
there was a GOODNESS between Taft
and himself This didn't disturb his
equanamity or lead him into any COM
authority, however, that any report
that Roosevelt proposes to repudiate
his successor in the presidency is
baseless fabrication. 1t was also
learned that Roosevelt had hoped to
see Senator Root in Europe and the
following summary of the former
presidents attitude toward American
politics was personally authorized.
"Mr. Roosevelt has not intimated
what he will or will not do on his
return to the United States. He has
constantly deferred from discussing
politics in any way. He has listened
to the opinions of Americans whom
he has seen, but declined to comment
thereon"
