ROME, Sept. 12 (New Turk World Cable

that he hue displayed throughout hi
ecclesiastics cm-em, the pope lias begun
some Important reforms, especially in the
adminiiit.re.ttnn of Vatican finances, which
jromia greatly 1o reduce the exjiensei of
the Holy Bee.
The firm inkling the employee of the
Vatican hud of the spirit of economy
animating Plus X M in the suppression
or reduction of the feee usually granted
to them after the election of a ne pope.
Only the several military guard of ail the
servants of the Vatican, received their
distribution of money and only in greatly
diminished proportion from the usuages
established far cent ur lee The Noble
Ouards, hb well an the Swiss and the
Ceuodiinnri received only two thirds of
'ahal they expected., and there ai much
arumlhna in consequence.
The climax wu reached when the pope
expressed hie intention of doing away
enurely eith the Swiss guard in the near
future, not only because of hla dislike of
ornamental display, hut especially for
reasons of economy. If hla lnientlona on
tine point were carried out. the Vatican
would see the disappearance of one of ita
most picturesque attractions, the uniforms
especially deaignrd by Kapbael at the com
mand of Julius II.
Plus X intenda also to reduce grestly the
number of the Noble Ouudi Palatine
guards and Pontifical gendarmes, beside
dismissing from service many useless em
ployes of the Vatican museum and library,
who, uuder the preceding administration,
liad little to do besides drawing their
aalarie. This Information has caused
consternation in the army of Vatican un
iorltngn, mho were hoping that the new
pope would shine by . ouritreet with the
m oil known parsimony of Lee XIII.

tor the administration of the patrimony
of H Fetor, and which lias practically the
liandling of all the Vatican funds.
Cardinal Mocenni was at the head of
this committee, but he has lately resigned
"because .of old act; and illness. Cardinal
. Cretuui, one of the executors of the will
tf Leo XI II. has also resigned for the
same reasons. The tote then took huld
of the important guosituu of appointing
their successors, and has established a new
commission, in which he has placed one of
the lay directors of the Bank of Italy as
a practical business memlier. In order to
understand the importance of the business
transacted by this committee one must
know that the dally expenses of the
Vatican amount to about C.&UO that is
snore than S5uu.0Mi jwr annum. This en
ormous expense Includes the salaries of
the cardinals, nuncios and envoy, the
pay of the aeveral military bodies, the ex
pense of the Vatican museum, library and
printing office, and the salaries of the
numerous paiials servants. Notwithstand

the recent rerussl of New Tnrk to receie

Count Bt. Maurice earnestly advocates re
prisals on the part of Franca, even sug
gesting that the American Insurance crapa

"The decrees by which France permits
American companies tn do business here
are always revocable, and why should we
permit French asvlngs to go Into the
pockets of stockholders of American Insur

our merchandise and tries to ruin our ex
ports. Let us then fipht back and hefrtn
with these Insurance comjianlea "

was directed against Germany, which for
a decade has persistently sought te exclude
American manufactured products and other
articles, pretending they contain strychnine,
borscic acid and other adulterants discov
erable only to German chemists.
James W. Seymour, European manager of
one rrf the big companies, says:
"Of course, such contention Is absurd

statement that money paid by the French

warranted, as all these companies are mu
tual and all profits tielnng to the policy
holders, who participate lo them one way
or another. The count also says French
wine was excluded In the Interest of Cali
fornia growers. In face of the fact that
commercially the greatest amount of Cali
fornia wine goes to Marseilles, where it is
treated and sent through the world a
French wine, it Is unlikely that any meas
ures will be taken against tlie American
companies, as they are too popular in
France and the interest Is identical with
that of the French policy holders. Business
Americans hope the French will realize thst
a small case, where no suspicion or un
friendly bias could exist. Is only imjiortant
as opening the way to getting hack at' an

LONDOTS, dept. 12 (New Tork World Ca
hlerram Special Telegram.) There stands
a little to the east of Ptirt Arthur, on the
Liao Tung peninsula, the most remarkable
city In the world. It is Iialny, the new
terminus of the greet Transslberian rail
way. It is as yet a city without inhabitants.
Save for masons and woodmen lta streets
are as deserted as those of a decaying rll
lege. In tt the Russians are budding houses
and administrative offices for a population
which Is yet to come, and are erecting great
docks for a trade which does not exist.
Dalny Is the paradox of cities. It contra
venes all the natural laa-e of a city's
growth. It was forced Into existence, not
because men in the course of human prog
ress found It convenient to meet and trade
there, hut because M. De Wttte. the Russian
finance minister, on the far distant Neva,
ordered, "Build me a dry."
Iialny Is the lifeless body of a city, but
thronging cltisens will vitalise It. It mif-tit

that he Is a weakling

not cars a rap what the people think of

on that very account. They would welcome
Vladimir because he would bring back the
'Yaee of giants." as they call the men of

Tlie Russians would welcome Grand

czar, and the czarina especially, do not
seem to know how to play the role. One
day the czarina astonlHhes -everybody by
spending a fortune on one gown. The next
day she gets so economical that she sends
for the milliners from Bt. Petersburg to
bring her out the newest styles and then
has her own maid talke the patterns off

setting for her Jewels, the patterns for her

clever, but she takes it uff the hill.

the winter she gives small halls which
are very exclusive and as brilliant almost
as the court balls. But when she goes
to the German or French watering places
in the summer she is rather democratic, as
is also the grand duke. They both like

No details have yet been reoeived as -to
the result of more remuus military drive,
but from information emanating flora
trustworthy sources not usually unfriendly
to the Turks there is reason to fear that
the country has been absolutely devastated
and ali tlie Christians of both eexes Jt& '
all ages who have failed to find refuge
in the woods have been put to the sword.
From information gleaned in -various dip
lomatic circle in London today the As
sociated Press learns that the powers have
come to recognise the fact that only -drastic
measure will maintain peace between
Turkey and Bulgaria. No one participating
in the negotiations now denies that the
two countries are perilously close to -ar.
It Is even suggested in a responsible quar
ter that the Sla are working with the
Bulgarians to convince the world that a
frightful ataie of affairs prevails in Mace
donia and that humanity demand an inter
vention by the xowera.
Strong pressure Is being exerted on fhe
British Foreign office to cause it to take
more energetic action to stop the atrocities
on the part of the Turks. But the policy
of the cabinet, at any rate, up to date,
continue to be confined to preserving the
concert of Europe. On all aides, it is
said that the further efforts of every
power will be to prevent a general Euro
pean conflagration. In the event of an out
break of war between Turkey and Bul
garia being unavoidable, the policy of the
powers will be to avoid complications
which mw embroil them.

SOFIA, Bulgaria. Sept. IS. With the ar
rival of new and ee.uaational reports of the
wholesale massacre of Christians in Mace

ing more alarming. If the latest messages,
which state that SU.OOO Bulgarians have been
slaughtered in the district of Okrida and
Leren. shall be confirmed no doubt exists
that the government will be forced to or
der the mobilisation of the army Immedi
ately. According to the information brought
te the Autonomics, a force of Albanian, as
sisted by Turkish regulars, acting under
order direct from Tlldt kiosk, massacred
the entire Bulgarian Christian population
of Okrida and Lercn districts.
Tb Turkish government Is believed te

large bodies of them within ten to fifteen
kilometers of the Bulgarian frontier.
Sofia and the country generally ara out
wardly as calm as in the most peaceful
times, but people m ho know Bulgaria say
this calm is more te be feared than any
outward evidence that tbey realise the
fearful condition of their brethren in Mac

concerned aver the Increasing number of

CHICAGO. Sept. 12 (Special Telegram.)
Sixteen thousand rural mail carriers,
speaking through their representatives in
convention In Chicago today, demanded
better pay lor their work. Hating com
pleted the organization of a national body

fight for the improvement of the service
and of their own lot.
The new officers are: President. Frank
H. Cunningham. Omaha; viue president, B.
P. Wood. Cherokee, la ; secretary, W'. F.
Tumbnr, Lockprrrt. N. T.; treasurer, W. L.
Fetters. Bluffton. Ind.
President Cunningham of Nebraska, in
his speech of acceptance, said it would be
as much the object of the new association
to Improve the service as to increase the
remuneration of theme engaged In it. He
pointed to the increasing number of resig
nations as an indication that capable men
Were becoming tired of such arduous duties
at small pay. and said If there was no hnj
of bettering the conditions of those remain
ing, fee- members of the association would
care to remain In the service.
"We do not want to be objects of char
ity, aided to maintain ourselves and our
horse by contribution from farmer along
our route," he said. "I know of many
cases In which carriers must psy more than
half of their income for horse feed and
repair te their wagon, facie Sam should
be ashamed te treat his servants lu euch a
manner and liie people of both crty .aua
country all over the land will endorse our
fight for Improved condition."

OTFTER BAT. Sept. IS After mature
consideration and consultation In person,
and by mall with memlier of both the
senate and the house of representatives.
President Roosevelt has abandoned the sug
gestion that congress lie called into extra
ordinary session in October. The extraor
dinary session which he announced many
months ago would be held this fall, would
be called according to present plans, to
mem on November I. Notwithstanding
that the suggestion of an October congress
came from prominent senators who warmly
advocated its adoption, the proposition wss
not received with favor by members of con
gress generally.
The idea of a session In October was op
posed particularly because it would oblige
senators and representatives to leave their
states and districts in the midst of cam
paign, which lo many of them and lo their
party was of vital Importance. No definite
agreement has been reached as to the
rhartcler of the financial legislation thai
may be enacted at the coming session of
congress. Indeed It is not certain that an
agreement can be reached between the
two branches of congress whereby any spe
cial legislation can be enacted.

This occasion is one for mutual felicita

tlie privlege soourded us of welcoming
new citizen into our midst and assure lire
Great Western of our hearty oo-opnration
in the advancement of Its Interests and
in tlie establishing ol a substantial relation
of good leliowaiiip between the city of
Omaha and the Maple Leaf svslem. The
indefatigable efforts evidenced by the Great

tietitlve Nebraska lines leads us lo the
belief that our cungra tula turns st this
time are not inopportune. We like tlie
courage, the pluck, the enterprise and the

has manifested. In saying this speak

the cttaeuB of timaha and the people o'
the state of Nebraaka.
