Vermont was a republic has lead to
the formation OF a Windsor associa-

HOW MUCH AMERICAN MONEY GOES TO ITALY?
Much Speculation Regarding Next Conclavc-Italy's New
 Warship

Rome, September o3.-(Special.) IA gov ernment report recently issued is of inter- est to America not so much as for what 1t says as for what may be inferred from it. Within the past ten years there has been an increase in the savings of the Italian people of no less than $60O GOO, oO0. It would be interesting to know just what proportion of this enormous sum comes from America. It is, of course, impossi- be to get at this information, but that the wages of the Italo-Amercans, sent home accounts for very large proportion of it cannot be doubted.
 There has been so much speculation re- garding the next conclave and so many conflicting opinions concerning it have been veiftured that some particulars will be found interesting and opportune. The new law regulating pontifcal elections contains provision destined to shorten them greatly. The conclave, which really means the segregation of the cardinals from the world while election is in prog ress, was first due to the determination to put an end to the long delays which used to occur. According to the system in vogue up to the present, or at least since the institution of the conclave the cardinals voted twice day until definite result was reached but the new reguli- tion commands vote four times day The most important feature of the slsw law, however, is the absolute abolition ol the veto exercised for centuries by France, Spain and Austria. by virtue cf which each of these powers claimed aud

until that time will the visitors be as- signed to the homes which they are ex- pected to canvass. They will be given a map of the territory which they must cover and all necessary instructions. They will go in pairs, and will return the visita- tion cards to district headquarters immc- diately after the canvass is completed.
 Every visitor will be expected to work where assigned. whether it be in the neighborhood of his church or home or not. Not more than 15 homes will be assigned to any two visitors and this work can easily be done in the space of an hour.
 Bible Training School A united effort will be made throughout Birmingham today in every Sunday school and church to enroll members in the Bible Training school to be held here October , to 10. A matriculator has been ap- pointed in each church.
 Leon C. Palmer of the Birmingham Sunday School association, who Is secre- tary of the school, is in charge of the matriculation, with division managers and a local matriculator in each church, The division managers and local matriculators being women.

church members are invited to enlist. A golden opportunity for you to help your
 fellow man and your church.
 Tomorrow the actual work of marshall
 ing the army of 5000 visitors who are to
 take the religious census of Birming-
 ham. By 4 o'clock this afternoon prac- tically all, if not all, of the Bible classes of the city will be personally pledged and
 corps of volunteers from the church members will be organized ready to visit
 every home in Powderly, Boyles and Birmingham in one hour on October s.
 By noon tomorrow 5000 people will be wearing the census takers badge, bearing
 the words: October 8, Luke 14-23."
 Birmingham believes in doing things quickly. Today the visitors organizations
 will be completed. Next Sunday they will
 be instructed and drilled, and the fol-
 lowing Sunday the census will be taken.
 Tine visitors organization is headed by
 three men who are known as joint super
 intendents of visitors. They are J. D.. Oliver for the Episcopal denomination, w.. M Stockham representing the other Protestants, and W. M. FeX representing the Catholics and Jews.
 They have appointed a superintendent of visitors for each church, who will This
 morning set in motion the organization and training of these visitors. He Will see that the superintendent and pastor assign the duty of taking the census to
 the adult and senior Bible classes, and members of the church. He will visit the Bible classes and get each one of them to vote unanimously to assist in the home visitation and will enthuse them
 with the possibilities of correctly taken census. He will give the teacher ana each member of the classes copy or instructions and get the teacher to drill the class in the matter of securing the necessary information and filling out the visitation cards. He will present oacn visitor with a button to be worn until after the census is completed He will fill
 out report showing the number of vis- itors to be furnished by each class, and by the volunteers from the church mem- bership. All this will be done today.
 | All superntendents of visitors will meet | this afternoon at the First Presbyterian church to make their reports. This will complete the work of the day. If every | man. does his duty the army will be ready for the forward movement by night fall and, simply waiting for orders.
 | Those orders will not be given until | the following Sunday, October 1, when | the superintendents of visitors in each l church will announce the district head quarters to which the visitors of his
 church and Sunday school must report
 and on October at o'clock sharp every
 one of the 5G00 visitors will report al l district headquarters for prayer service
 and to receive final instructions. Not
