Reported That All Catholic Property
in Mexico Will Be Taken to
Redeem Paper Money

The published announcement that
the Mexican government is consid-
ering the advisability of taking over
all the personal and realty holdings
of the Catholic clergy throughout the
republic created somewhat of SEN
sation in Mexico City.
In a special dispatch from Quere-
taro, Ell Democratic, the official gov
ernment organ, quotes both Secretary
Of the Treasury Cabrera and DR.. Siur-
OBJ, governor of the State of Guiana
juato, as saying that the measure
would be made effective under the old
law dating back more than half a
century, when church edifices were
seized during the administration of
Benito Juarez.
The clergy in the states of Michaoa-
can, Puebla, Jueretaro and Jalisco
are reputed to be immensely wealthy
in Jewels, lands and works of art,
which are held in trust for the church.
1t is said the appropriation of these
by the government, for their conver.
sion into gold with which to swell the
reserve to be accumulated for the re.
demption of the paper money issue
made necessary by the revolution
would solve Mexico's present economic
difficulties.
Government declarations place the
present paper issue at 500,OOO,0O0 pc
sos with an insignificant metallic re
serve for its redemption.

effort possible at this time to accu
mulate as rapidly as possible the nee

IRISH MINES UNDEvELoPED BE.
CAUSE ENGLAND WISHES
TO SUPPLY COAL.

No industry in Ireland can succeed
without the good will of the British
government. It follows, therefore, that
Ireland must fall back on English cap
ital for the development Of all of her
natural resources. The Irish coal mar
ket is supplied by England, and nat
urally she does not intend to develop
Irish coal mines.
While the British authorities have
deprecated the estimated tonnage of
coal in the ground from reliable
sources, we know that there are hun.
dreds of millions of tons of coal in
the ground of Ireland, as we'll as In
England, and yet in the year 1911 the
total output of coal in Ireland was
scarcely $4,000 tons, valued at less
than $250,000, and only 800 men were
employed in the industry.
The railways in Ireland are con-
trolled by the same interests that con-
troll the railroads and coal mines in
England. There is a coal colliery in
Queens county which is ten miles
from the railway, and it costs 81 per
ton to cart the coal to the railway sta
tion and So per ton freight to take it
to Dublin.
Vast Resources In Peat.
The peat resources of Ireland are
the most valuable in the world today,
because modern science has found q
way of developing gases generated
from peat which are distributed
through local stations to manufactur.
ing plants and transportation sys.
tens.
The Germans and Russians are util.
izing their peat bogs in a large way
along the lines of this development
They have practical schemes of util
izing the peat, so that it competes
with soft coal that sells at 81 per ton
Soft coal in Ireland retails at from
81 to So per ton, and is bringing 81
per ton at the present time. They
have invented processes in Europe 70,
the quick drying of peat, and many
peat fuel manufacturers have been pu,
into successful operation on the con
tinent.
The coal bill of Ireland to England
Is $17,000.000 per annum. With hel
bogs and mines developed, as is being
done in other parts Of Europe. the re
suit would mean a return of grea
wealth and prosperity for Ireland, bu
which can never be until she become,
a free and Independent nation.

WOMAN ADOPTS PRIEST.

It became known in New Orleans
that Mrs. Louis G. Thomas, 73 years
old, and reputed one of the south's
wealthiest women, had adopted as
her son and heir Father Peter Scott,
formerly chancellor of the diocese Of
New Orleans. Mrs. Thomas is the
widow Of Stanley o. Thomas, the cot
ton king, who left an estate Of several
million dollars.

According to prison officials at Sing

fifty.seven of the 1909 inmates were

Talk of Peace Has Little
Effect on Iron and Steel
Market, Which is Active
That There Will Be No Immediate Lessening of
Demand is View Taken By Trade, Unless
Negotiations Get Actually Under Way.
Further Advances Are Noted

mense volume, but very little of the BUSH
ness offered has been accepted by mills
on account of the filled-up condition of
their order books
Cast iron pipe has been advanced 81 at
New York, Chicago and Birmingham.
Higher prices are expected at an early
date on nuts, bolts and rivets and it is
probable that wire products win be
marked up 50 a ton. Chain has been
advanced IS. Spikes, which have been
very much out of line with other prod
ucts, have been advanced S13 ton Ware
house prices of sheets have been marked
up from So to $40 ton.
The possibility of peace negotiations
being in augurated has not stopped con-
sideration of another immense tonnage
OF shell steel by domestic munition
makers, aggregating from 100000 to $780,
600 tons, following closely on placing
by French and British governments sew
eral weeks ago of fully 100000 tons.
Foreign demand for steel rails, espe-
cially from Russia is also very strong,
and it is understood that American capt.
talists are being urged to build more
plants to meet demands for rails for
export. Great activity in scrap, particu-
larly in heavy melting steel, has been
the feature of market during the past
week.
The pig iron market continues strong,
but is not so excited as during previous
weeks.

Cleveland, o., December 19-(SpeciaL)
The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will
say:
News of peace proposals of Germany
and her allies naturally was received with
keenest interest by iron and steel manu-
facturers, but they do not believe that
the immediate effect on their business
will be important, and see no prospect
Of foreign buying being curtailed unless
the entente allies consent to begin ne
gotiations and later developments give
definite promise of peace. If the imme-
date effect of peace talk is to cause some
decrease in foreign and domestic demand
for leading products, it will not be de-
plorable and may have good influence I'LL
timately on general situation.
Railroad embargoes are having very Sc
rious results, especially in curtailing ship
ments of iron and steel products to the
east for export. In order to relieve the
present situation, many blast furnaces
may be banked throughout the holidays
and finishing mills closed. Some foun-
dries in Cleveland may resort to use of
trucks to haul pig iron from furnaces to
their plants.
Inquiries for ship steel are coming to
this country from foreign buyers in inn

Under the ruling of the new ordinance
no white slave play will be allowed. No

scene depicting domestic or conjugal in
fidelity of an immoral nature on the part
Of either the husband or wife" is pro-
hibited.
There is one loophole If the picture
shown depicts facts which represent the

quisitorial report of any board or organ
ization, expressly provided for by the
laws of the United States-then all right

where any great and material changes
have been made in the original ordinance
as drafted by the commissioner of pub
lie safety The modified" ordinance Is
over 1000 words in length.
The figure of female, draped or
clothed in transparent or semi-transpar-
ent material, is prohibited, unless mere
ly flashed"
William Mudd, Sidney Griffin and j. e.
Lenhart, moving picture men, agreed 10
the new ordinance. Tom Abernethy and
l.. C. Leftwich did not vote for the
ordinance. Brown Parks, another men,
Der of the committee opposing the origi-
nal ordinance, was not present at the
meeting.
Mrs r. Dupont Thompson, one of the
members of the ladies' committee, stated
last night that the cooperation of the
moving picture men aided them greatly
in arriving at definite conclusion con-
corning the ordinance. She stated that
a letter would be written to 5000 club
women throughout the city asking them
to patronize the picture shows and point
+1,a 70 hot or
by witnessing the meritorious screen per-
fornances.
The commissioners have nothing to say
on the subject of approving or disap-
proving the new ordinance
1t will be presented to them for pas
sage, by the commissioner of public safe
ty, at the commission meeting next Tues
day. 1t is thought probable that addi-
tional protests will be made to its adop-
ton.
