PROTEST FROM CATHOLIC
 PRIESTS IN MEXICO
Against Agitation of ERiIed Mexican .PreIates and the American Clergy in the United States in Favor of American Intervention.

To Venustiano Carranza, Chief of the
 Constitutionalist Army and in
 Charge of the Executive Power of
 the Union:
 priests of the Archbishopric of Me1i- co. take pleasure in stating that it is with regret and disapproyaI that we have seen a number of Cath olic refu- gees in foreign countries, acting on the advice and under the influence of an association which, with the pre-, text of protecting the Catholic cause, has long been trying to interfere in our national affairs, address a peti- ton to a foreign government for pro- tection of the Church of Mexico. We protest to you that none of us have taken or will take part in these these measures which we consider anti-patriotic and unnecessary. It is true that we have to lament several ta1ning to the cult and service of the Church, but we consider all this a sad consequence of the revolution which has affected our country in its very foundation, and which, on tear ing up many harmful elements sweeps away at the same time, with irresistible force, others which are part Of the most distinguished per- sonalittes of the revolution, we have received attentions for which we are thankful and many times also. the guarantees to which we are entitled as Mexican citizens.
 we trust, therefore, without re sorting to any foreign power, to suc- and rights consistent with the laws that govern us, which will permit us; far from all political action, to devote ourselves to the mora1ization of the poor and to the pacidcation of our country, Gr the bases of the respect which is due to the constituted au- thozaty and of fraternity of all the
 s.PIeass accept this manifestation of our feelings and of our gratitude and respect.s

 The first settlement on the site of the present city Of Pittsburgh was a blockheslae erected by the English. at the suggestion of George Washington. in 1854. They were driven away be-. fore the building was completed. and the French vfctors built Fort Da Quesne. The French In turn were driven away by the English who ereo- ted Fort Pitt. The village which grew up about the fort was named Pitts b1rgh. and it was Incorporated as a borough 121 years ago today. April 22, 1794.

IzEza1E0GRAPHY AS
 AN OPPORTUNTIY

Much used to be said about te1egra-3 plly as chance for young men to earn a good living. One hears less to the same effect nowadays, President NeWeo1ab 0RrIten. of the Western Union told tIle commission on indus ago that telegraphers are underpaid- He said 8 Morse te1egrapher now gets s2s a week. while women get SIS, and he claimed 2 good te1egrapher should get e5 day,
 It was only a few years ago that a writer in the Independent interviewed ia lot of te1egraphers. who found that tf1sy were earning low pay One of them said his ambition would be satisfied when he reached e19 a week,
 TelegFaphE calls fer a. certain Saual- ity of EaiId possessed by every one. with accuracy, swiftness. fIexibf1ity of thought, and nervous boise. Very heavy respo instability is placed on many telegraphers, particularly in railroad work. Everything considered, the wages paid are not high for the ser vice required.
 Probably the payment is kept down by the competition of women In due time as women enter commercial life more thoroughly, this disparity will not exist so much If women find themselves paid beneath their value, they will go into enterprises on their | skilled trades of the pressure of wom- en applicants But for the present, teiegraphy seems to be a field where women earn hetter pay. than they can get as stenegrapheFs and book keep CTS.
 Tn the readiness and adaptabi1ity ok thought required in te1egraphy, woHnz en certainly excel naen. Whether they | would bear the serious Easponsib1li= ties of FailEead teiegEaphy equally well | might be questioned. But in comner- eia1 work their alertness and speed should make them superior to men.
 Young and ambitious men capable of detag telegraph work can probably enter more profitable empIoyments. Many women could better their posi- ten hy entering this field The teIe- graph is not likely to be superseded by the telephone. For certain defi-. mite messages 1t will always be the cheapest method.

COLONEL HARDING
 WILL BE GOVERNOR
 IN ZONE OF CANAL
Great Changes Soon to Be Made in Higher Offices
 At Panama.

Panama. June 29.-During the latter part of August and the early days of September, next, several i'm portant changes will take place among the higher personnel of the Panama. canal. The resignation of Major General George w. Goethals U- S. A., as governor of the Panama canal and his departure from the isthmus where he has been in su- prene command for the last eight years, will be the beginning of other changes.
 The most important of these will be the probable elevation of Leuten- ant Colonel Chester Harding, U. S. A., Maintenance and Operation, to be governor of the Panama, canal. It has all along been understood on the isthmus, and this understanding has not been contradicted by General GoethaIs, that Colonel Harding In fact General Goethals has let it been known that he obtained the de- tail of Colonel Harding to the isthmus for that very purpose.
 Immediately after his resignation as governor and his departure from Panama, General Goethals plans to apply fir his retirement from active service, with the army. His intention is to take a years vacation and then to engage in private engineering con I this venture he probably will be Joined by his son, Captain George R. Goetha1s, U. s. A., and Sidney B. Will Hanson, long a civilian engineer on the canal work.
 Before General Goetha1s' depar- ture the detail of Captain Hugh Rod man, U. s. N., from shore duty as marine superintendent with the Pan anna canal to the command of the superdreadnaught New York will have been announced by the navy de- partment. Early this year Captain Rodman applied to the department for return to sea duty on the de- parture of General Goetha1s from Panama His request was granted and he was assured of the command of the New York. He probably will be succeeded by Commander Hutch L Gone. U. s. N., now commanding the Dixie.
 Commander H. v. Butler, U. s. N, at present captain Nof the port of Bal boa, Canal Zone. probably will have left the canal by the time most of these changes take place. He already doubtedly will be given the command of one of the smaller navy vessels. He probably will be succeeded by Lieutenant Allen B.. Reed, U. s. N., tender Iris of the Pacific fleet Com nander Butler has held his present position since April l, 1914.
 At Cristoba1, the northern terminus of the canal, Commander Duglas, E. Dismukes. U. s. N. will be succeeded by lieutenant Prentiss P. Bassett, U. S. N., now on board the batt1es1ip Delaware. Conmander- Disnukes all so has requested to be detailed to duty at seq. Just what detail will be given him has not been learned.
 No information is available on the isthmus regarding the successor to Colonel Harding as head of the de- partnoent of Maintenance and Opera ton.

New York, June 29-The Mari time Association of the port of New sYerk, numbering 800 representatives of domestic and foreign steamship lines entering this port, was pBepar- ing to-day an appeal to President Will son urging him to call Congress in special session to repeal the present seaman's law.
 In resolutions adopted by the as- sociation. a copy of which was to be sent to the President, it was set forth that enforcement of his law will be most disastrous in effect * and will defeat. the very purpose for which it was enacted.''
 Copies of the resolutions were sent to every commercial organization along the Atlantic seaboard.

STOCK MARKET

New York, June 2e.-Opening-A new low record for Canadian Pacific was the notable feature of to-day's s early market, that stock selling down a point to .145A. United States Rubber also lost a point and some of the war shares, including Bethlehem Steel and General Electric, \ yielded fractions. AmaIganated Copper was among the steady leaders. gaining E with an advance of 8 point in Cruel bIe Steel and Goodrich. Later Ca nadian Pacific and Rubber added to initial losses with an irregular trend in other parts of the list.
 Noon-Cana,dian Pacific continued to fall and rubber repeated it's recent low price of 48 1-2. Rock Island at 15 re- corded a loss of 5-s, new quotation and there was increased weakness in Missouri Pacific, Missouri, Kansas & Texas. Sales in the first hour barely reached 100, GOO shares, Goodrich being the most active issue. There was some slight recovery in the second hour, but revival of the selling movement in Canadian Pacific, which declined to d43 IA, caused renewed heacvdness all around the forenoon. Bonds alsoSwere heavy on further foreign offerings.

JINGLE CHARACTERS COME TO LIFE WITH
 GINGERBREAD MAN"
Calburn Company Members Successful As FairytaIe
 Heroes and HerOines.

'The Gingerbread Man, which has been termed tta fancifu1 fadryesque, y was produced last evening for the first time by the particularly pEatseworthy EColburn Musical Comedy Co.,, which each week gives something new to laugh at,f something new to sing and guarantees at least one enjoyable eve ming out of the seven. The house was a. record one, which apI1laaRded heartily the fWork of each of its faworites.. The comedy itself was different from any that the CalbI1rns have attempted be fore, as many of the characters from fairy tales were in the. cast. These were the Gingerbread Man Kris Krin- gle, Jack Horner, Simple Simon, Prin- cess Sugar Plum, Aargery Daw, the fairy queen and her court, Macheva.- Illus BA1dge, the king of Bunn Land, and even the fire Breathing dragon, which breatdaed real fire from It's nos- tIfLs until 1t died right on the stage and was carried out to the strains of the funeral march. The play is sure to make a great Init with the children and it holds enough good hrrnor to in terest grown-up
 The Gingerbread Man, who came to life through the power of Machevaaius Fudge, and who waibb1ed around so ua1steadily, was spIerdddIy irnperson- ated by Billy Lynn, while Miss Flor ence A1acIie, the priIna donna of the l. brooches, was Jack Horner a youth, all through the play. Arthur Burckly, in a very pink suit and very yellow bObbed wig, had the seIni-comedy part of Simple Simon, author of nursery rhymes and Christmas tingIes. Nell McCune was Nlargery Daw, Simple SfnIon's companion, and Helen Larkins was Maz4e Bon Bon, afterwards the Princess Sugar Paum.

 SCHOOLS FOR YOUTH OF CHURCH
Nearly Children Are Receiving Fundamental Education in Schools Conducted By

ished in the United States establish ed by the Catholic church on the con- tention that, religion should per- meate and vivify the education of childhood and youth
 This education is not obtainable in the home, he said, as few parents are capable or willing to teach religion
 While religious instruction Is giv- en precedence in these institutions, g the archbishop said the other themes are given their share of attention so that in matters of secular knowledge the Catholic schools rank with the best institutions in the state.''
