CHURCH WILL NOT ACT
IN TOLSTOI CONTROVERSY
Bishops in Russia Informed Re-
QUEENS Are Not Permissible

ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 2O.-Ihe
church in the persons of Metropolltans
Antonius of ST. Petersburg, vladimir
of Moscow and FlaVian of k1eV ana
Liuanoff, chief procurator OF the molly
synod, decided tonight to leave things
as they are with respect to Tolsto1.
A plenary synod has not been called
and telegraphic instructions have been
dispatched to the bishops informing
them that requiem5 were not permlssi-
ble Burial according to the rites of
the orthodox church is considered out
of the question
The government intends, according to
the announcement, to cooperate with
the church in the enforcement of its
decision, though the emperor and Pre-
mier Stolypin have indicated their de-
sire that the great Russian be buried
with the Russian rites.
Repeatedly advances have been made
which would have permitted the lifting
of the ban of accommodation decreed
against Tolstol in 1901. The metropoli-
tan, Antonius himself, sent telegram
urging Tolstoi to make his peace with
the church, and representatives of the
church were sent to Astapova for the
purpose of bringing the count into the
fold.
\ IT is nointed out that Tolstoi was the
subject of the milder form of penalty,
that he was not mathematical, and
that a priest on his own conscience
could oficiate at the requiem such as
was held today under the auspices of
the council OF the empire, on the initi-
ative of Michael Stakovitch, marshal
of nobility.
Another requiem will be sung in the
duma by radical priests tomorrow. The
yeneration for Tolstoi is so great that
even the reactionary parties in the
duma have been obliged to issue state
ments leaving the members free to
honor his memory.
Meetings of literary and other socie-
ties were held tonight to decide what
share they would take in the mourning
for Tolstoi Many private theaters were
closed tonight and Will be closed on
the day of the funeral.
A strict censorship is being exercised
nv the Russian press in the publication
of news concerning Tolstoi's death.

AUTHOR DISGUISED AS
PEASANT STUDIES LABOR

PITTSBURG, Nov. 20.-After a week
here disguised at times as an i'm
migrant to study in behalf of sthe
Austro- hungarian government the
conditions among Hungarians in the
mill and mine section of western Penn
sylvania, Arpad Rasztor of ] lapest,
a Journalist and author. left today for
New York for further investigation at
Ellis Island
Some time ago it was given out at
the Hungarian consulate that
Industrial conditions in western
Pennsylvania were very bad" and
that the home government might, if
1t would, take drastic measures to
restrict, if not altogether cut off for a
time, emigration to America.
This would be done," said Rasztor,
"only as a last resort, and of course
it would be a difficult thing to do
thoroughly, but something must be
done. You have nearly 100000 of our
subjects in this section, or more than
in any otner part of the United States.
Working conditions are very bad and
not growing better
He told of finding hundreds of his
countrymen in the Westmoreland coal
fields, where a strike is on, working
as strikebreakers.
"But they were brought here from
New York" said Rasztor, Ignorant
that the jobs promised them were in
strike territory"

FOSS DEMANDS
LODGE WITHDRAW
The Governor-EIect Threatens to
Stump Massachusetts Un-
less Senator Resigns

BOSTON, Nov. 20.-Governor-elect
Eugene N. Foss issued statement to-
night in which he demands that Sen
ator Henry Cabot Lodge withdraw
from the field for reelection.
In the event of refusal, Mr.. Foss
declared he would go into every sec
tion of the state in a campaign to de-
feat the senator.
Mr.. Foss' statement in part follows:
I'm the name of the majority of the
sovereign people of the commonwealth
of Massachusetts, l demand that Henry
Cabot Lodge surrender his seat in the
United States senate by withdrawing
from the contest for reelection.
His election to the senate would be
a Reputation of the great victory of
the people at the last election. He was
on trial as much, if not more, than
Governor Draper, and it he had been
the candidate my majority would have
been double what it was.
''The issues on which the fight was
made, on which 1 was elected, were
honest tariff revision downward, lower
duties on the necessaries of life free
raw materials, an untaXed food supply,
reciprocity with Canada and more do
mesticity in our form of government.
stands on these issues and where he
has stood all these years. To re-eiect
him would be a step backward. and
Massachusetts, has never learned to
walk backward.
"I shall never sign his credentials
except at the end of a campaign which
will make the last one look like an
afternoon tea party.
HE must surrender or fight. He
must defend his position before the
people. The people of Massachusetts
will not permit him longer to manipu-
late the legislature. l am ready, and
if he does not retire will be on the
stump in every section of the state,
and we will find out where the people
stand.
Senator Lodge is not in touch with
the new order of things, with the pro-
gressive spirit of the times He does
not represent the people, the men and
women in the ordinary walks of life"

crashing down the boundary fences.
but We're driven back by mounted
police, revealing Mars unhurt and the
right wing of his machine totally
wrecked. The, catastrophe effectively

Arch Hoxsey, being under Wright
contract, could not fly on Sunday, and
10000 disappointed people grumbled
their way through the gates. :. -.
1t was reported that those who left
first received back their money, but
that swarms of persons on the out
side, hearing of this, squirmed under
the fence and trailed out again, ask
ing for gate money. At any rate the
management stopped refunding.
OBJECTS TO CRITICISM
Mars first attempt convinced hin

remedy this he took two studding sails
designed for use on the end of the
wings, and fastened them, one in front
and one behind the body of the ma
chine, with the idea that the breeze
stirred by the propellers striking
against the rear plane would help to
lift it.
His second trial amounted only to
a bad start, in v hich his machine was
the least bit damaged.
On the third trial the machine rose
steadily, too steadily, for Mars was
unable to overcome the upward tilt,
and rather than ascend indefinitely he
came down as best he could.
"The extra plane behind made the
machine tail-heavy," he said later.
"The scheme never had been tried be-
fore 1 tried it to save time, and you
saw how it worked. If I'd attached the
plane a foot nearer the machine 1t
would have been all right"
Mars was bitter over criticisms di-
rected against him since his arrival.
"I : as under no contract to fly yes

Republican state senators with Cover

action was taken on any of the several
questions they discussed in conference

ASSOCIATED Press,

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 20.-The insur-
rection wi ich was said to have been
planned for today against the govern
ment of Mexico failed to materialize.
Sunday passed without unusual incl
dent, and while the authorities have
not relaxed their vigilance it is be-
lieved no further trouble will occur.
Special dispatches received tonight
from many places, including Vera Cruz,
Puebla, Pachuca and Orizaba, said
everything had been quiet all day in
those cities.
Two mine bosses were arrested in
Pachuca and brought here. 1t is be-
lieved they are suspected of having
been implicated in the plot against the
government.
A dispatch from Paehuca said the
children of three women who are now
in Jail charged with firing on the sol
diers in the Puebla fight are being
cared for by German woman. One
woman who was under arrest was re-
leased after an investigation showed
she had not participated in the fray.
FORTY KILLED IN CONFLICT
A newspaper correspondent who re-
turned to Mexico City tonight said
not more than forty persons were killed
Cerdan. Sixteen of the dead were
reyolutionists. he said, and the others
were police, soldiers and spectators.
The correspondent estimated the
number of wounded at about 125, and
among them were many persons inno-
cent of any wrongdoing. but who hap
pened to be in the vicinity at the time
the fight occurred and were victims of
stray bullets.
Reports tonight from Santa Cruz, a
town between here and Puebla, said
the demonstration there last night was
of short duration. A party of revolu-
tionists. small in. number attempted
to create a revolt, but were driven to
the mountains by troops. An attempt
was made to burn bridge on the
Mexic~ railway near Santa Cruz, but
soldiers prevented the act. Late re-
ports say no further disturbance was
attempted there.
No bull fights were allowed in Mexi-
co today, and there were no large
gatherings of any kind in the capital.
SOLDIERS PATROL STREETS
Soldiers and police patrolled the
streets all day, but not an act occurred
that re .uired their services.
An air of uneasiness could be OBJ
srved .ong members of the foreign
colonie on account of the uncertainty
of the situation. In the clubs and
restaurants the situation was the sole
topic of conversation, and now that
Sunday has passed without an out
.reak, an easier feeling prevails.
The whereabouts of Francisco 1. Ma
dero, said to be the leader in the plot
against the government, is not known
here, but the impression is that he
will not return to this country from
San An .nio, where he has been since
he was released from custody Moth
ing is known here of his reported de-
parture from San Antonio for some
border point.

Scotland and tiorse Racine

Scotland has been famous for its horses from the most ancient days. When Agricola defeated the Caledo- nians at the battle of the Grampians, A. D. 84, the Celtic enemy, as Tacitus relates, were exceptionally strong in cavalry and charioteers. Successive kings of Scotland did much to improve its native breed of horses, and in this connection it is not to be forgotten that the first Scottish king of Eng land, James l.. did more to improve the race horses in our island than was ever done before him or has ever been done by any individual since. James I. was the real author of horse racing as 1t has since been known in England. He 1t was who first established regu- lar courses, and during his reign there came into being the code of regula- tons that led up to the modern laws of the turf Nobody denies that horse racing has done much for the breed of British horses It was gift from Scotland.-London Answers.
