from his campaign trip through the
Middle West, granted long interview
to the members Of the Belgian royal
commission, in this country to present
claims of alleged German atrocities.
Neither party would discuss the inter-

NJ. Paul Hymsns, Be gian Minister

URGES
CHEAPER MARRIAGES

London, Sept. 27.-The Archbishop
Of Canterbury has sent a letter to all
the bishops urging them to reduce the
marriage license fees so that soldiers
and sailors summoned for active SER
vice may marry before leaving home.
The marriage fees aggregate $40, which
includes 81 so in stamped duty to the
government. The Archbishop has re-
quested the government to waive the
payment of this duty i'm the case Of
recruits and expects that his request
will be granted.
Many diocescs already have lowered
the license fee to 81 so and the clergy
m,n are waving their right to per-
sonal fees. The wholesale encourage
ment of marriages on the part of the
soldiers and sailors of Germany, Aus
tria and France has attracted much
attention in England and probably in
spired tho Archbishop's action.

BISHOP DEMANDS
CATHOLIC PROTEST
Religious Persecution in
Mexico Subject for
State, He Saws.

Baltimore, Sept. eliminating that
IL was time for Catholics in the United
States to protest to the federal gov
eminent against the alleged brutal
treatment of thousands Of Catholics in
Mexico, Bishop Joseph Schrembs, of
Toledo, preached a striking sermon at
Tho cathedral here this morning.
The occasion was the opening Of the
thirteenth annual convention OF the
American Federation of Catholic So
cieties, with a solemn high mass, at
which Cardinal Gibbons was present
and spoke in approval of the Bishops
sermon. The Cardinal impaired the
Papal benediction to the members OF
the federation.
Bishop Schrembs contrasted the great
outcrv from "men of all faiths and OF
no faith" over the Imprisonment few
wears ago Of Russian Jew for alleged
ritual murder with the seeming ipdif-
ference of the American people to con-
ditions in Mexico, where mot one indI-
yidual, but thousands upon thousands
of Catholic men and women, are being
outraged and in many cases brutally
murdered"
He declared that priests and bishops
have been robbed of all they pos
sersed, tortured and exiled, and that
numbers Of women who have sacrificed
their lives for their Catholic faith
have been handed over to that which
is worse than death-the lust Of an
inhuman soldiery."
The Bishop said that ne honored the
sentiment once uttered by "a great po-
litieal genius who helps steer the wheel
of government" that suffering human
ity should not be crueifed with cross
of gold"
but | feel tempted" he added, "in
this present crisis, when men and wom-
en-, because of religious faith and con
viction, are made to drink the bitter
cup of religious persecution to the very
dregs, TO say to this political genius:
Here is a splendid field for transIating
rhetoric into action"

rare. He sent a representative to
Belgrade with q letter demanding the
surrender of the town within six
hours, threatening otherwise to lay
the city in ruins. The only reply was
TO turn the Servian artillery fire at
once on the Austrian warships and on
Semlin itself.
The Austrian troops backed up their
demand for the surrender of Belgrade
last night by making strenuous at
tempts to cross into Seryis from Til

refuge here after its defeat at Santa
Barbara, must fight its way out or
surrender to American troops at Naeo,

Governor J. NJ. MaytorenA has
thrown a Gordon Of Yaqui Indians and
Villa troops around three sides Of the
town, has cut of Hills expected rein
forcements from Sinalos and has
planted field pieces in preparation for
an attack. Several hundred Constitu-
tionalist troops from Cananea and
Aqua Prieta succeeded in reaching
Naco to-day, strengthening the Hhi
force.
Ten thousand Carranzs troops from
the south are said to have started Tor
Sonora. Ten troops Of the 9th United

four additional troops have been sent
there to-day.
CaIderon is leader Of the Liberal

~onrced that he would run at the cleo
tions.
While an answer to villas proposal
ia awaited from Mexico City, the
Northern leader has not halted his

ing CarranZa forces.
Il was learned that q villa brigade
was on march into Sonora, the western

forces in that state. Another strong
Villa force is moving into Coahuila, 70

Washington, Sept 81. - Fernando
iglesias Calderon is the man upon
whom those in close touch with the
Mexican situation here are pinning
their hopes for permanent peace in
the southern republic. II Is generally
believed in diplomatic circles that
General Carrauza will retire on or be-
fore Thursday, October !, and that the
convention called for that date at Mex
leo City will choose Calderon proYisr

II was said tonight that . personal
representative Of General Villa, after
a long wire conversation with bis
chief, had telegraphed local Constitu-
tionalists that Igiesiss would be Hc-
ceptabie TO Villa 40 head Of the new
government. The fighting general has
announced that he will not be repre-
sented in the convention called By

way for prompt settlement Of the
trouble brought on by the breach be-
tween Villa and CarranZa.
