Saws if Men Were Prepared, Real
Prohibition Would Come Without
Aid of Proposed Laws.

Richmond, Aug. 2l.-so1ne ne'F
phases of the debate now going on
in the State over the question OF
Statewide prohibition, to be set
tied at the polls on September y,
are given in Il letter from S. V. wat
Eins, of Wakefield, who, under date
August Is, outlines what he describes
as "the jnsincerity of Statewide
prohibition" Mr.. Watkins specially
objects to the attitude Of ardent
Statewiders in their persistent clas-
.sifcation of all advocates of local OPP
ton as favoring the liquor traffic. AS
friend of true temperance, and as
Confederate veteran Of distinguish
ed service, Mr.. Watkins asserts that
he contended during the war az ne
contenis now for the principle of To-
cal self-government-home rule.
He says:
"Inasmuch as by kind of per-
verted logical process, to wit. "4ou
are opposed to Statewide prchlbl-
ton, therefore you favor the liquor
traffic with all its horrors l am
placed in false position. arise to
explain. / will not assume the role Of
Sancho Panza for any modern Don
Quixote, especially one entirely de-
void Of the sincerity OF Gil Blas's
creation. If in his process of sepa-
rating sheep from the goats, this
punching the Cheer element" our
prohibition friedns are assuming a
monopoly of all purity Of purpose in
civic righteousness, they should par
don the goats for foraging in the
! fields Of logic on their own account.
"Two absolutely necessary factors
must exist in all traffic, viz. sellers
and buyers. To destroy the traffic
both factors must be destroyed. You
put of business one class of sellers,
! but anoher class VIII surely arise, Tor
just so long men will sell, leSally
or illegally. Yet the political prohi-
bitionist having the same moral and
legal right of interference with one
as with the othre, offers immunity
to the buyer whist venting the en-
tire force of his spleen on the seller,
overlooking the fact that one party
20 the transaction is as guilty as the
other. They propose to remove
temptation from the way Of the
poor innocent buyer, unmlndful OF the
temptations through love of gam
which they may place in the way oil

According to a dispatch from Ber-

SUN IN ECLIPSE TODAY.
Phenomenon Was Only Partially Wis

The most interesting eclipse of the
of the sun of the year was partially
visible in this. city: just. as the sun
rose this morning. The eclipse cast
total darkness over a strip of Rus
sia, part of Scandinavia, ASA Minor
Persia and India.
The breadth of the umbria is IS
miles and the sun appeared totally
echpsed in path only that wide,
The partial eclipse in the United
States was seen in Minnesota, Illinois
1ndianaj and astronomers estimat
that Washington is the point farthest
South where the suns disk appeared
partially covered by the moon.
All of Europe and a portion o
Africa and Asia also fell within tn
partial eclipse. The total eclipse il
similar to nightfall, and at the twi
light the temperature falls slightl:
and birds return to their nests.
The eclipse was caused by the moor
looming between the sun and the

After Fighting Against
Odds, Belgians Will q
Stand at Antwerp.
IS IN STATE OF SIEGE
Allies Concentrating Great Army to
Meet Onslaught of Invaders
Closely Censored DISPATCHES.

Brussels has fallen, and Antwerp IS
in state of siege.
Gables from Rotterdam declare
that the main German army has oecu-
ried the former Belgian capital AND
that the defense of the seaport has
begun.
Sharp fighting is reported between
the cavalry outposts of the opposing
armies, while the bulk of the invad-
ing forces is swinging toward the
south and west to assault the French
and British allies in pursuance of the
real object of the advance path
way across the French frontier.
The gallant defense of the Bel
gians against the crushing power of
the German advance has been turned
to defend Antwerp, the second
strongest fortified city of Europe.
Along the banks of the Meuse
south of Brussels it is expected the
French and British allies will meet
the Kaiser's army of the Meuse and
the armies of the Moselle.
In Alsace the Germans are report
ed falling back on Strassburg.
In Lorraine great German force
opposes the French advance on Metz.
To the fact that not single sho!
was fired in defense of Brussels by
the Belgians, and that the civic
guard was disarmed before the in
vaders reached the capital is due the.
salvation of the city itself. The Ger
man commander is understood to
have pledged himself, so long as his
orders are obeyed, to protect the
city with its many beautiful and his
toric buildings.

BODY IS IN ST. PETERS
Thirty Cardinals, 25 Of Whom Are
Italians, Already in Rome for Con-
clave to Elect Successor.

Rome, August 21.-Humble IN hfc,
Pope Plus X remains humble in death.
His last thoughts were of the poor:
and today thousands are passing be-
fore his bier paying final homage to
the simple peasant who rose to thc
Eisherman's Throne, ]; 20
At 9 o'clock today the body of the
late Pontiff was removed from the
Vatican throne room to the chapel Of
the Sacrament in st. Peters.
The deceased said he did not wish
his body to remain in state in the
throne room for three days, as ira
dition required for exclusive visits
of the privileged classes, nobility, dip
lomats, and cardinals. 1t was his
desire that his body should be eX-
posed Immediately in st. Peters to
the rich and poor alike.
The solemn ceremonies, which wiz
end ten days hence with the burial
Of the body of Pope Plus X and
the assembling of the conclave of
cardinals to choose hs successor, be-
gan yesterday evening at 6 o'clock,
just twenty-four hours after his
death.
At that time the Franciscan econ
fessors," who had remained praying
at the bedside continuously since his
death, reverently carried the body to
tanother chamber o fthe Vatican,
where the pontifical viscera, which,
enclosed in a plain terra-cotta urn,
will repose under the high altar OF
st. Peter s, where repose the re-
mains of st. Peter himself. Subse-
quentiy the body was 'embalmed and
attircd by the Franciscans. Thace
Is white lace 'cassock with white
sash, over which is the red care
trimmed with ermine. Upon the
feet are red papal shoes and on the
head the red papal cap. Later were
added the full pontifical robes and
emblems Of office, the gloves, ring
and mitre Of gold.
Rome, Italy, August 21.-Cardi-
mails Ferrata and Mof1i are regarded
as the most likely candidates to sue
ceed the late Pope Plus X.
Other candidates mentioned are
Cardinals De Lal, Agliardi, Pompili
ard Serfini,, the last-named ex-nun-
clio Of Mexico.
Cardinal Gibbons is also regarded
as candidate.
Discussing the question of a sue
cessor to the late Pope, Rev. John
j. Wayne, editor of the Catholic En-
cyclopedia, declares that he would
not be surprised if the honor fell to
Cardinal Gibbosn.
