yesterday from Pittsburgh, Pa, how
ever, to the effect that a deal had
been made, neither was denied nor af-
firmed by either Mr. White or Mr..
Sinclair.
However, there no longer remains
any doubt about a proposition being
closed, but these gentlemen, for busi-

little at this time is the general belief.

Sinclair, "and that is that no sale has
been made and no sale ever was at
any time during any negotiations we
may have had ever contemplated
AT this time we have no statement

the rumors that we are going to lay a
pipe line to the gulf. We are attend

l. Winston Spencer Churchill, first
lord of the admiralty in a speech IN
the house of commons this evening
told the country that, despite the loss

plete confidence in the power of the
navy to give effect to the wishes and

The first lord told Of the danger TO
British ships from mines and sub
marines and the possibility of ar

to the high seas to prey on the allies

prevented thus far He closed his
speech with the statement that there
was another danger, that of an
oyersea inVasiou-an enterprise full
of danger for those who might at
tempt it,
Had Some Luck.
Mr.. Churchill said that, considering
the work the navy had done in the
protection of British commerce, the
restrictions 1t had placed on the en-
eMy's supplies and the conveying by
it of great numbers of troops across
the world. with ones eyes fixed on
the mischances that had occurred and
knowing all the circumstances, he

BIBLE BURNING RECALLS InJOUJISFTTQOn
COPIES HOLY SCRIPTURE
On Plaza Witness Protestant Literature
0 Moving PfcureEx

TWO thousand five hundred Bibles burned in
H. the public plaza of Vigan, the largest and
most important city in Northern Luzon. Burned
by representatives of the Roman Catholic Church.
Burned as an evidence of the displeasure of the
old established church of the activity displayed
by the Protestant missionaries in spreading the
word OF God through the provinces. Thus,
briefly, is told the tale of the most fragrant and
ubiquitous act perpetrated in the name of reli-
glOn since the days of the Inquistion And all
OF which is an occurrence of the past week. and
which was not only witnessed by thousands of
spectators, but by invited spectators as we'll
Scarcely for centuries has so gross an act been
committed as was the burning in the plaza of
Vigan, uocos Sur, January 16, by the officials
of the Roman Catholic church, of the Bibles
given as premiums by the representatives of the
American Bible Association for admission to the
Scriptural cinematograph pictures exhibited by
the travelling agent of that association. Reported
in Manila only yesterday by returning spectators,
the occurrence has aroused the authorities of both
denominations, and the result in all probability
will be an ecclesiastical question which must of
necessity involve some three nations.
AS reported by witnesses of Vigan, the facts
are as follows: Some three weeks ago the
mittee Of the American Bible Association
announced a series Of moving picture exhibitions
in Vigtan, the capital of nocos Sur The Bibles
sold were paper bound, and printed in the Ilocano
language. AS inducement to the purchase of
the Bibles and added inducement to witness
the Scriptural films to be shown by the travelling
moving picture entertainment, two propositions
made to the public of Vigan.
The first was that with every Bible sold ticket
was to be given gratis to the moving picture show
The second that with each ticket to the per-
Torrance Bible was to be given. The prices Of
the Bibles were 10 and 20 centavos only. AS a
result, more than 5000 Bibles were sold during

iT1alS Be Tried :?

and insolently told, by Senator Smiths
organ, .qoh0t he must do.
[ wonder how Judge Ben Hill likes to have
the whip cracked over his head in that threat
ening, dictatorial style.
Not only has Judge Hill received the
orders Of the Atlanta Journal, but the Justices
of the Supreme Court are notified that they
had better be prepared to bend to the rod of
Senator Smiths omnipotent organ.
Who IS paying for all this?
No such attempt at dictation to the courts,
and no such arrogant excoriation of the
courts, has ever before been known in this
country.
| defy anyone, to name an instance where
daily paper of general circulation, and the
recognized personal organ Of Z. s. Senator,
has ever made such all illegal, brutal and sus-
pjciou8 attempt to bring the courts into dis
repute, drag down the judges to the level of
criminals, and destroy the confidence of the
people in the orderly processes of the law.

the three days during which Protestant mission
aries exhibited the films.
Two religious organizations however, are con-
testing the field in that district the representa-
tiVes of one of the Roman Catholic church organi-
cations contrasting the entrance of the Protestant
missionaries. In opposition to the Bible distri-
button scheme of the Professionals the Roman
Catholic authorities evolved idea which was
executed to set at naught the effects of the Ameri
can Bible Association.
During the three evenings performance of the
travelling moving pictures, the lighting arrange
ments of which were operated by means of the
automobile motor which carried the moving pic
ture machine outfit, some five thousand admission
fees to the tent-hall erected by the Protestants
The day following the last Protestant perform
ance announcement was made by the representa-
tiVes of the Roman Catholic church that they had
leased the local cine, owned by Sr. Reyes, and
that cine performance, under the auspices of
the Roman Catholic church, would be given on
that evening. Most interesting of all the
announcement that the price of admission would
be Bible. No cash would be accepted: Bibles
only were to be legal tender at the box Office.
More than two thousand admission fees to the
older church cine performance were paid by
means of the unique currency Little knew the

The Frank Case

FOR many years, I have not taken the
Atlanta Journal, nor have I read it.
Recognized by everybody as the organ of
Senator Smith and edited with the most utter
disregard Of truth and liberality, [ have not
cared to pay any attention to it.
Last week, however, there came to my
address blue-marked wrapper, enclosing
the Journal; and the leading editorial was
blue marked. ALSO The blue pencil smacks
of the editorial office: and, as [ got a copy
of that ISSUE specially marked on the outside,
and specially marked on the inside, it is
reasonable to suppose that everybody got
copy, just as everybody gets copies of Senator
Smiths senatorial utterances- same being
equivalent to oracles from the fountain-head
of Wisdom.
The marked editorial in Senator Smiths
newspaper organ bears the modest headline,
"FRANK SHOULD HAVE 4 NEW
TRIALr
The case is still pending Judge Ben Hill
knows that he will soon have to pass upon an
extraordinary motion for a new trial; hence,

spectator who had paid their admission by means
OF Bibles as to what to be the final end Of
their admission fees. The result was shown on
the following afternoon, however when the pub
lie Of Vigan was invited by the representatives of
the Church Of Rome to witness a unique spectacle
upon the church plaza.
Thousands Of Vigan people gathered at the
hour named and were treated to the unprece-
dented spectacle of two thousand five hundred
Christian Bibles being consumed in fire ignited
for their destruction in the center of the plaza
No explanation of the meaning of the act was
given by the Roman Catholic authorities, but the
understanding that jealousy of the success
of the Protestant missionaries the primary
cause of the action Of the Roman Catholic church
officials
All of Vigan is in furore at present over the
occurrence. Communications by the score are
said to have been exchanged between church and
insular authorities the matter and the
departments Of three countries may be in
correspondence. The act Of the Catholic authori-
ties served in a way a boomerang, as regards
the sale Of Bibles, as the day following the
more Bibles were sold by the representatives Of
the American Bible Association.
The above is taken from the Renocinoiento
Filipino, a daily paper published at Manila,
Philippine Islands. The date is Feb. 3, 1914
Commenting upon this fanatca1 act 50
thoroughly characteristic of popery, the edi-
tor warns our people that the same spirit that
led to the burning of these Bibles will lead
again to all the horrors Of the medieval nqui-
sition when men, women and children were
tortured, butchered and burnt because they
rejected the monstrous claims of popery.
