positions, are filled now by members
of the religious orders.

Mar Have Ratal Savor.
In the ease of the papal envoy to the
United States, several requests that' an
American be appointed had already been
tiuide under Pop Leo, and similar de
mands have been made upon the present
pop. Many American bishops say a native
Is mora likely to enjoy their full confidence
than a foreigner, especially because a
native prelate would be more apt to under
stand the conditions and requirements of
the country where he is to represent the
Holy See.
Cardinal Gibbons and the rector of the
American college at Rom have already
been asked for their opinion, and as their
views are In complete accord with those of
the majority of the American bishops, it
Is thought the pope's selection of a suc
cessor to Mgr. Palconlo will meet the ex
pressed wishes of the American prelates
and clergy.
It has been stated that Plus X has so far
abstained from touching upon political Is
aues and has limited himself strictly to
religious questions and appointments. Buch,
however, is not the case, as soma of the
roost delicate political questions have al
ready commanded the pope's attention.
Mgr. Wilpert, the celebrated archaeolo
gist, who was recently promoted to the of
fice of apoetollo prothonotary, and whoie
selection as secretary of fetal waa errone
ously cabled abroad, has been charged with
s secret diplomatic mission to Berlin, where
ho) l to present to Emperor William an
autograph letter from the pope.
Pius X, after officially announcing his
elevation to the pontifical throne, makes
reference to the cordial relations between
the kaiser's government and his predeces
sor and expresses the hope that the same
sic cord b maintained during his pontificate
and that he may soon have the pleasure of
(making the personal acquaintance of the
Valuer In Rome.
Another political question which Is being
6alt with at the Vatican regards th
tiomlnatlon of several new French bishops.
fThe French government Insists that the
bulls of appointment Issued by Rome should
contain ho words "Nobis nomlnavlt" in
order to make It clear that under the con
cordat It la the right of the French govern
tnent to nominate th persons to be
promoted snd that the Vatican has only
the right of confirmation in these appoint
ments. The question embittered the lust
few years of the reign of 10 XIII, who
claimed that the words should be omitted
from the official bull as only the Vatican
could Calm the right of appointment
under tne concordat. Plus X has alreudy
expressed hi views in the matter and
without renouncing any of the rights of the
papacy, I an found a solution of the dif
ficulty agrat-able to all the parties con
cerned, and this will lie acted upon at the
coming consistory.
The business of the Vatican is Just at
present centered In the preparations nec
essary for the first consistory under the
new pope, preparations which are long and
tedious and require a great deal of canon

BERLIN. Oct. 10. (New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram.) The World
-irresoiiideiit was one of the small party
on the Serlla-ZosFen electric train when
it traveled at the record speed of lJi miles
an hour. Everyone on board wai nervuiis
and excited, even Dr. Schultze of the state
railways and the famous electricians, Irivy
Counsellor Mlsanl. Ileren Lachner, Zim
merman and Borrles. All was under the
direction of Dr. Relchel, who has "con
ducted all the experiments. We were all
especially Insured. Dr. Relchl got on In
front and carefully scrutinised the motor
car and Inspected the wheels, brakes and
springs with keen, quiet eyes. Then he
turned a handle and off we started, steady
as a rock. The line under us was a tolld
mass of masonry, steel, cement and stone.
Every yard a strong iron sleeper em
bedded In cement held the steel rails as in
a vise.
Aa we approached Marlenfelijs the speed
was Increased and we began to fly, but
with hardly any oscillation. Trees, houses
and telegraph posts shot past like lightning.
But when Dr. Relchel gave another turn
these objects became blurs. Indistinguish
able shadows, passing us. Then we drew
up gradually snd arrived at Zoesen. havln?
made fourteen miles and a half in eight
minutes.
We started back to Martenfelde and cov

"Now." said Dr. Relchel, "we shall see

wss comfortable. Dr.' Relchel took a care
ful look around and off we went, the speed
Increasing every moment. Past Mahlow,
Dahlwlts and Rangsdorf ws clattered and
tho speed was terrific three miles and an
eighth In one minute snd a half. It was a
cool day and the impact of the wind was
unbearable, whistling through every
crevice of the Car. Yet we were all freely
perspiring with excitement. When Dr.
Relchel slowed down we all breathed, again.
Fourteen thousand volts had been em
ployed to send us on our mad course.
When we left the car our nrst thought
was to send a message to F.mperor Wil

attained a speed equal to 201 kilometers

STEAL TREASURES OF CHURCH
Valuable Gold and Silver Challlces
Disappear from St.
Peters.
(Copyright, 1903. by Press Publishing Co.)
ROME, Oct. 10-(New Y'ork World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) Much concern
has been caused at the Vatican by the dis
covery of thefts from the treasury of
Bt Peter's. As every one who hss been
to Rom knows, this church possesses a
larger and more valuable treasury than
any church in the world, and visitors to
Rome are occasionally allowed to Inspect
th many gold and. silver vases and
precious vestments accumulated by the
church In the centuries.
The articles, however, which are exposed
to publlo view are only a small' portion
of the treasury preserved under St. Peter's.
Millions of dollars would hardly represent
the value of these artistic treasures ac
cumulated by the several popes, of which
the most valued ore the six solid gold
candlesticks and cross, chiseled by Bernini
and placed on the papal altar only on
great occasions. It haa been found that
seven other candlesticks, also of solid gold,
and more than a dozen silver and gold
challlces, have disappeared from the sac
risty, and by order of Plus X the Italian
police have been requested to make an In
vestigation. PRACTICAL JOKER AT WORK
8uds Apocryphal Encyclical Letter

(Copyright. 1903, by Press Publishing Co.)
ROME. Oct. 10. (New York World Cable
gram Special Telegram. ) Much annoy
ance has been caused to the Vatican
authorities by a practical Joker. A few
days. before the nrst encyclical letter of
the new pope was expected an apucrypal
encyclical letter waa Issued from soma
obscure quarter in the same type and form
as the usual Vatican publication, and dis
tributed through the mails, to all the car
dinals and nuncios abroad. This letter ad
dressed to all the bishops of the world,
filled with numerous texts from the scrip
tures was so well edited In elegant Latin as
to deceive many. The Observa'.orc Remano,
the Vatican official organ, promptly dis
covered the fraud and by a careful analy
sis of Its contents traced Its origin to a
non-Catholic Institution of Rome, princi
pally because of ommissions which made It
appear that the letter was addressed to all
the church dignitaries of the world regard
less of creed and dogma.

PROCESSION TO PASS DOWN BOULEVARDS
Concession of Oatdoor Balls to Be

Decorated,
(Copyright. 1003. by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, Oct. 10 -tNew Y'ork World Cable
gram Special Telegram.) Seemingly Paris,
especially feminine Paris, Is taking much
more antlc.patory pleasure In thn coming
visit of the king and queen of Italy than It
did when the gny city was preparing to re
ceive King Kdward. Signs and symptoms
of approaching festivities multiply, al
though King Victor and Queen Helena will
not arrive until October 11. Their visit will
last four days and the demonstration to
them of France's .power and glory will end
October IS. with a grand review of W.OU
troops at Vlncennes.
At Queen Helena's special request Mme.
Loubet will attend all the public functions
with tho president. This is the first time
the president's wife, a good, domestic old
lady who prefers household duties to so
ciety, has chosen, or, perhaps has been
Invited, to assume such prominence. That
his consort will accompany Victor Emman
uel will Impose social duties on other
women than Mme. Loubet.
The newspapers say that a Parisian
dancing master is busily but secretly In
structing Mme. Pelletan In the art of mak
ing ceremonious courtesies. Camilla Pelle
tan, the minister of marine, lately married
a most estimable schoolmistress who can
scarcely be expected to know Just how to
advance before royalty, making obeisance
and retreat with graceful atatellness. On
this score the wives of other ministers are
rather nervous awaiting the queen's arrival
and It may be that they are following Mme.
Pelletan's admirable example.
The note to be struck of course Is the
staunch friendship of the two Latin na
tions. The choice of the boulevards for the
royal procession, where hundreds of thou
sands can view It, Is extremely popular,
another concession to the people though not
accorded during the visit of his Anglo
Saxon majesty. Is loudly acclaimed. Per
fect of Police Leplne has given special per
mission to give open ulr balls in the publlo
squares whero the multitude can dance as
If under their own grapevines or olive
trees. The concession Is usually reserved
for the fourteenth of July and Mardi-Gras.
Large sums will be spent to decorate the
streets and Jpr Frenchmen the working
people are showing energy In these Joyful
preparations. As If at the touch of a
magician's wand, long rays of Venetian
masts that would bear art flags and floral
ropes have sprung up on both sides of the
rofl route. The king and president will
pass the head of the Avenue del Opera nnd
doubtless will be deeply touched at behold
ing a reproduction of the Column of' the
Lion of St. Mark In Venice. Before the
Theater Francaise the triumphal arches
have been erected. New Yorkers will be,
sympathetic when they learn that the beau
ties of the route will be marred only at the
Place del Opera by the hideous board
fences surrounding excavations for exten
sions of the Metropolitan railway, the sub
way of Paris.

Representatives of the republican party
in Douglas county spent nil of yesterday
afternoon at Washington hall nominating
this ticket and organizing the new county
committee.
It was the first convention held under
tho new rules and primary system and
nearly all the STi accredited delegates were
present, making tho largest delegate con
vention held In Douglas county. From a
politician's standpoint the convention was
mero child's play. It having tho attributes
more of a Chautauqua meeting than any
thing else. But in the committee organiza
tion Just after the convention adjourned
there was the familiar clashing of wooden
weapons and a nice little struggle for con
trol. The contest for committee control was
precipitated by tho unU-niachlne wing,
which wan bent on placing A. H. Burnett,
one of last (spring's bolting republicans, In
tho chairmanship. On tho other hand the
men who had carried the municipal ticket
to victory Insisted upon naming Robert
Cowell, the astute and successful manager
of the last city campaign. Burnett's sup
porters, headed by T. W. Blackburn,, found
that the end of the horn they held was by
no means the large one, nnd subsided
gracefully after a little gratuitous vocal ex-
rrrla.1 Tnnun.n.1. . , . .
I - no uio icsi vote stood
i hi to 39 on the question of admitting the
state committeemen to the organlxation
proceedings surrender was the only thins
left to them.
Huge Love Feast.
The convention resembled a huge love
feast. The full delegations filled all tht
chairs and the spectators lined the walls
and crowded the galleries. With no real
work or trading, trafficking or scheming to
do all the delegates were good-natured, but
they balked finally In the prescribed tedi
ous method of eliminating candidates, and
compromised by simply Instructing the
secretary to cast the vote as directed by
the voters and previously announced.
The ticket placed in the field was ths
name as that announced the day after Hi
primaries. So the predicted all afternoon
and all night session was not held, though
it might have been had not the parlia
mentarians blaxed the way.
County Chairman Ooss rapped for order
at 2:30, proceedings having been delayel
half an hour by the slow arrival of the
printed memoranda of Instructions to dele
gates. Mr. Uoss. as the retiring head of
the county committee, made a brief talk
af thanks to all concerned and ug,'isled
A. W. Jeffeiis for temporary chairman us
a tribute to his authorship of the new rules.
Mr. Jefleris camo to the platform with a
speech, saying In part:

bound to meet destruction. It is said in
