SAYS WATSON OFFERED A
BRIDE,

InOmas +. watson, notorious de-
famer of everything Catholic, twice
indicted for sending obscene matter
through the mails and widely held to
be morally responsible for the lynch
Ing of Leo Frank, is accused by
Thomas Loyless. editor of the "Au-
gusta Chronicle" of having offered to
former Governor John M. Slaton, of
Georgia, political bride to let Frank
hang.
The accusation is made, according
to a special dispatch to 1.-The In
quirer,' of this city, in the course of
an arraignment of Watson that fills
three pages of the Augusta Chron-
icle" of Sunday, September IL.
Mr.. Loyless charges, says the dis
patch, that the motives underlying
Watson's campaign against Frank and
his persistent attacks on Ex-Governor
Slaton were "Watson's desire to make
money by increasing the number of
readers Of his paper, he having ex-
1 hausted his supply of ammunition in
his attacks on Catholicism; Watson's
desire to wreak vengeance on ex-Gov-
ernor Slaton for not having followed
his dictation, and Watson's desire to
rehabilitate a shattered political in
iluence in state affairs"
After citing a number of instances
of Ex-Governor Slaton's uprightness
and honesty and his service to the
state, Mr.. Loyless says:
About week befove Slaton rem
dered his decision in the Frank case,
and while the hearing of the petition
to commute was still in progress, Tom
Watson sent Governor Slaton word
through mutual friend that If the
governor would let Leo Frank hang,
he (WatsOn) would be Slaton's friend
for life and that it would result in
Slaton becoming United States SEN
ator' next time, and the master of
Georgia politics for twenty years to
come.
"Of course, Slaton spurned the sug.
gestion as promptly as he would have
spurned an offer of money--for It
meant that he should sacrifice a hu-
man life for the sake of his political
ambition.
~ dare Watson to deny this, for !
have the proof of it in my possession,
and he knows the man by whom | can
prove it,

DUTCH PRAY FOR PEACE.

The Archbishop of Utrecht, Holland,
has issued pastoral letter to his PEG.
pie which was read in all the churches
last week calling on them to support
by their prayers the efforts of the Pope
for peace. He says in the course of
this letter that the hatred manifested
towards each other by the belligerent
nations is so intense that in spite of
all the misery and losses entailed by
the war, the hope of conference for
peace seems very faint at the moment,
but he points out that prayer can ef-
feet miracles and that Almighty God
can stop this frightful carnage Of His
children when He will. Special pray
ers and novenas are to be said in the
Dutch Catholic churches for this end.

PLANS FOR BUILDING OF TWO
BATTLESHlPS.

Plans have been prepared for two
new battleships authorized by the last
congress. They will be the largest
and most powerful warships ever de-
signed for the United States navy. In
addition to formidable main batteries
of" twelve fourteen-inch rifles each,
they will be provided with new safe
guards against torpedo attack and anti
air craft guns. While the navy de-
partment will not make public the ma
ture of the invention adopted to pro.
tect the dreadnaughts from torpedoes,
Secretary Daniels said lessons learned
from the European war had been given
careful consideration by the navy's ex-
perts who developed the device.

THE MEXICAN SITUATION,

Secretary of State Lansing, repre-
senting the United States government,
and the diplomatic representatives of
Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Bolivia,
Uruguay and Guatemala, resolved at
their meeting in New York last Sat
urday that the time had come for the
extension of formal recognition to a
government in Mexico.
On October 9th another meeting of
the conference will be held in Wash
ington, at which decision is to be
reached as to the elements upon
which recognition should be conferred
A formal statement issued by the
conference declared that inasmuch az
the factions themselves had failed tc
come to an agreement, recognition
would be accorded to the de facto au
thorities possessing the material and
moral capacity necessary to protect
the lives and property of nationals and
foreigners"
Each of the several governments, it
was announced, would itself Judge
such capacity, and recognition will
likewise be extended by each govern.
ment separately at such time as it
may deem proper"
At the conclusion of the conference
Secretary Lansing sent a long com.
munication to President Wilson, advis
ing him of what had taken place. The
secretary has gone on a brief vaca
ton, and it is expected that he will
personally invite representatives of
the various factions in Mexico to meet
with him on his return to Washing
ton.

CATHOLIC UNIVERSITIES AND

SUME THEIR USUAL
uunDK

AS it is the wish of the Holy Father
that the Catholic universities and
other ecclesiastical schools in Italy
should follow their usual course, not
withstanding the fact that the coun-
try is at war, every effort is being
made to carry out his desire. The
universities and the national colleges
in Rome will consequently resume their
work at the close Of the vacation, and
so too will the educational institu-
tions of the Christian brothers and of
the Jesuit Fathers, despite the fact
that the latter have turned some of
their houses into military hospitals.

present indications are that this is to
be the banner year in the history of
this great institution Of learning. The
freshman class of all departments ex-
ceeds 500, and Father Donlon in his

dents to keep high the standard of

CATHOLIC ROYAL HOUSES !
GERMANY,

1t may surprise Americans who
never tire of lauding Germany as a
great bulwark of Professionalism, to
hear that of the royal houses ruling
that nation, only one-that of Prussia
is destined to remain Protestant.
Bavaria and Saxony are each ruled by
Catholic sovereign, and the heir to
the throne of Wurtemburg is Catho-
lie. And should the Grand Duchy of
Luxembourg be annexed to the German
empire this will add still another
Catholic ruling house to the ones
aforementioned.
