Then there was an extraordinary scene.
Helter-skelter the crowd rushed TO the
counters. Some stumbled and fell and
were trodden underfcot. SO ugly die

banks rugby football team came out
and by their skill and weight stemmed
the rush.

Meanwhile the tellers were being bonn
barded with application forms. numbers
of which with checks for various amounts
attached were hurled over the railings
which protect the counters. II was i'm
possible for the tellers 70 write out re-
ceipts; they could not recognize the

THE POPE IN ROMAN LAWSUIT
Court Rules That He Must Make Tech
nfcA Appearance In Adami Case.

Court Rules That He Must Make Tech
niea Appearance In Adami Case.
Rome, Jan. 4.-Cousins of the late
Signor Adami, under whose will a leg
acy of several million lire was be-
queathed to the pope, have brought an
action to set aside the bequest. They
allege that undue influence was
brought to bear upon the testator in
order that his wealth might pass into
the possession of the Vatican.
The court has approved the demand
of the plaintiffs that when the case is
called for trial the pope shall be called
upon as a witness to reply to the ac-
cusation.
This decision, however, does not
compel the pope to actually appear in
court. 1t merely means that power of
attorney for the holy see must be
given to a lawyer who will conduct
the case in behalf of the apostolic ad-
ministratiOn.

JAMES u. !. INDICTED.
Former U. 6. Treasurer Charged With
Using Mails to Defraud.

Washington. Jan. i.-The grand jury
has returned indictments against
James n. Huston of New York city
and others charging them with CON
spiracy to defraud and for using the
mails to defraud Huston was former
ly treasurer of the United States.
The Indictment charges that operat-
ing through the National Trust COM
pany of Washington and the National
Trust company of Delaware Huston

$4,000 from mining and other compa-
MES. The alleged object of the two
companies named was to guarantee

acted as president of the National
Trust company of Washington and
with Harvey NJ. Lewis was also con-
nected with the National Trust COM
pany of Delaware and company
known as the Enterprise company.
Everett DufOur and Samuel Graham,
it is alleged, would represent to the
officers of companies desiring to sell
stock that if their stock or bond issues
were guaranteed by the National Trust
company it would enable DUfour and
Graham to sell the stock. When pre-
miums for insurance were paid to the
trust company Dufour and Graham
would receive Il percentage, but never
sold any stock.
James \. Huston was state sena-
tor from Fayette county. Ind, in 1885
and 1888 ana was chairman of the In
diana Republican state central COM
mittee in the latter year, when Harri-
son was elected president. He had

society has made Il preliminary report
of recent experiments which seem to
show that successful cure for can
Ger has been discovered.

surgical operations and has also been
apparently successfully used in cases
where operations were impossible.
a number of patients who have been
treated by this me- lod have been eX-
hibited by the soci ty to show the good
results obtained. The discoverers of
the vaccine are not prepared to make
a positive statement that the vaccine
effects u cure at present They are
watching the cases which have been
treated for a possible recurrence of
the disease before finally accepting the

Washington, Jan. I. - The tobacco
trust is now before the bar of the
United States supreme court and upon
the decision rendered will depend its

eral Wickersham and Solicitor General
Bowers.

ernment AIr. McReynolds recited the
history of the tobacco trust, told OF its
organization and methods, declared

some sixty-fve concerns and twenty
five individuals, with assets worth
more than $4OOOOO,OOO and controlling
a large proportion of the worlds to-
