VATICAN FINDS OBSTACLE TMnki Another Power Should Carry Out Expulsion of th Irian. , WOULD WELCOME A SHOW OF FORCE prefers to Leave Them Where They Now Are It No Local Opposition Is Made to Their Ministration. ROME, July 6. After an examination ot iths note submitted by James H. Tart, civil ; governor ot the Philippine Islands, regard 'leg the friar lands In the archipelago, the Vatican finds one very great obstacle to the withdrawal of the friars. The Vatican would not object If the ex pulsion of the friars were arranged and carried out by another power, so that the holy see would only have to recognize the accomplished fact, but It shrinks from ap pearing as a direct party to the withdrawal, especially since the religious orders are powerful In Rome, and above all others In the sacred college. The efforts ot the Vatican ars directed toward finding a way to consent to the withdrawal of the friars from the Islands without appearing to do so. In tact, the Vatican, It is believed, would welcome a show ot force to which It could submit. It would much prefer, however, a com- promise prohibiting the friars from re turning to the parishes they left In 1898, but allowing them to remain where they now are or where there is no local oppo sition to their ministration. . The cardinals appointed to discuss Judge Tatt's proposition were to meet July 10. tut a requiem mass for the late King Al ,bert ot Saxony, to be celebrated In the Elstlne chapel. In which the pope and the cardinals will assist, has necessitated a postponement of the meeting. PIUS CLAIM NOT SETTLED Vosstbtllty that Arbitrators from Keutrat Country May Now Be Selected. ROME, July 8. In view of the possibility t The Hague international tribunal recom mending that arbitrators of a neutral coun try be chosen, to settle the question be tween the United States and Mexico, re garding the Plus claim, the following names have been suggested: Slgnor Zanar delll, the Italian premier; the Italian am bassador to Austria-Hungary, Count Nl grasl; the Italian ambassador to France, Count Tor nielli; the president of the sen ate, Slgnor Saracco; the president ot the chamber, Slgnor Biancherl, and Senors Vil- laii, Pogono and Vlscountl Venosta. The latter were chosen by King Victor Emmanuel to study the Anglo-Bravlltan dis pute regarding the boundary of British Oulana, In which his majesty Is arbitrator. The Plus claim (amounting to about $1,000,000) has been pending for about a third of a century.

(New York World Ca blegramSpecial Telegram.) The pope s reception of Governor Taft and family,' the members of which were presented by Bishop O'Oormsn, was marked by alto gether exceptional cordiality and condes cension on the part of the sovereign pon tiff. The party included Governor Tatt's mother, Mrs. Alonxo Taft; Mrs. William Taft. Master Robert and Miss Helen Taft, aged II and 10 years, respectively, and Captain Btrothe of the governor's military household. By a very special privilege, usually only granted to sovereigns, an audi ence was given ta the pope's private library. The pope was most kind and fatherly. He had little Miss Taft stand beside his chair and placed his hand gently oa her shoulder while the Interview proceeded. The head of the Roman Cathollo church showed par ticular Interest In the little ones. He asked them which they liked the better Rome or Manila. They both answered that where they wanted to go waa back to the United State. Their settled view on that point greatly amused the pope. The audience lasted twenty-five minutes. At Its close the pope gave his visitors a special blessing. rising esstly from his chair without even the assistance ot a cane. He Insisted, with charming gallantry, on escorting the women to the library door. Bishop O'Gorman, who has had three audiences with the pope, says the pontiff appears marvelously lively and la the best of spirits. LOCAL BREVITIES.

WELL PLEASED WITH SHOWING ' MADE Feel Sore ot Winning; and Bay Those Who Refused to Obey Strike Order Will Yet Regret It. WILKESBARRE. Pa., July 6. President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers, de livered an address before the striking Bre men, who held a meeting in this city to day. Mr. Mitchell spoke as follows: I am erell Dleased with the showing made by the steam men In obeying the strike order and the firmness displayed by them ever since. This is the battle of our lives. as It means the success or downfall oi our union In the anthracite region. Of all the strikes of my recollection or of any that I have ever participated In. tnere never was one i was so connaeni of winning as this one. And let me tell you that tne day is not rar away wnen my words will come true. Those fellow workers among your crart who refused to obey the strike order and those few who deserted you since, will have reason to regret their action a they will suffer greatly when this strike is won or lost. 1 nave yet to meet ine man who prefer a traitor to a good upright, honest man, and those men who are now arettlna- Datted on the back by the offlolals of the coal companies will, at the cloee of our strike, be treated witn acorn by tneir employers and one thing that I wish to impress upon you people, and that Is this great strike will never be settled with my consent, only on condition tnat each ana every man that left his place shall be re turned to fits rormer position; otnerwise there shall be no settlement that will per mit discrimination for taking an active part in our battle Mr. Mitchell also advised the firemen to remain firm and determined, as success was sure to crown their efforts ere long If they did. - Adam Rescavaga, vice president ot DIs trlct No. 1 United Mine Workers, la an ad dress Issued tonight savs: Thi Llthunlans. Poles and Slavonians propose to stand by the United Mine workers' union until a victory la won. If the strike should be prolonged and the resources of the strikers give out, the Poles, LJthunlana and Slavs are willing to leave the region and not return until President Mitchell advises them to do so. Will Try to Break Strike. The movement of empty coal cars along ths railroads and ths unususl activity about several of the collieries In the region Indicate to the strikers that an effort Is to be made in a few days to start at some of ths collieries. . The operator assert thst they have sufficient men under engagement, both re turned strikers and Imported men, to man several ot the collieries. While they will not admit that work may be resumed next week, there Is a general belief that the effort will be made. In the Haselton region the Pardees are expected to mass men at the Hsrwood col Uery, which, being on the outskirts of the region. Is In less danger of attack than a mine In the heart of the district, and the coal can be shipped from It without being sent past any mining village. A number of miner are aald to have applied tor work in response to the notice ot the company that it was ready to receive appllcalluus. In tb Wyoming region all Indications point to a resumption of work at Nantl cok No. 5 colliery on tb Susquehanna Coal company. This mln Is situated at ths edge ot the Wyoming basin and its output goes over the Pennsylvania railroad. To Start Work la the Colliery. It 1 also stated that from the Wyoming division mine ot the Delaware, Lacka wanna A Weatsra company en Miliary will be selected at which work Is to be started. . The officials say enough miners of the division have asked for work to man a colliery. Some empty coal cars were to day placed on sidings near a couple of these collieries and there is a bustle about the workings which Indicate that some move 1 about to be made. The Delaware ft Hudson and the Lehigh Valley companies are also busy with prep arations which make It appear as If at a time understood by the operators each company will try to break the strike. Ths officials of the union, cognizant of what is being done, are busy. Pickets are watching the mines and all moves are re ported to headquarters and If any effort Is made to gather men the strikers will en deavor by large picket committee to see them before they go to work and dissuade them. In the Haselton region they turned many back thi morning, an especially strong picket line being established about tb Drifton colliery of Coxe Bros. & Co., where the building ot a strong barbed wire stockade, backed with barricades yester day, lends color to the belief thst an effort Is to be made there to resums work. BLAIRSVILLE, Pa., July 6. Ths coal strike at Black Lick station, on the In diana branch railroad. Is growing more In tense. ' Stones have been thrown at the men who continue at work in the Graff mine and dynamite was placed under the bouse ot Thomas Palmer, one of those who has kept on working. All the window glass was broken. CLEARFIELD, Fa., July I. An order was issued here today by the United Mine Workers of district No. 2 rescinding ths order of June 25, which curtailed the soft coal output of the region by reducing the days of labor to four each week. This last order states that the purposs of cur tailing ths output was to prevent the Oiling ot anthracite orders and that thi has been achieved. BACK FROM FIELD OF SHILOH While There John A.

Successor to LI Hung; Chan. The author of this message. Yuan 6hlh Kal, has taken the place of the late LI Hung Chang to a large extent In dominat ing Chinese foreign policies, and the United 8tates government is more . disposed to heed his appeal because ot his excellent conduct during the Boxer uprising. He was the principal means of communication between the outside governments and the legationers during their time of peril and but for his strength of character the entire province of Shan Tung would have been drawn over to the Boxer cause. Secretary Hay will address himself to the various governments,, probably through Mr. Conger at Pekln, and the foreign min isters there located. The situation at Tien Tsln in peculiar, and. In the view of the State department; the attitude ot the foreign military officials there Is perfectly unressonable. The State department ha satisfied itself that the foreign minister at Pekln whoss governments are representsd by these military leaders are thoroughly anxious to have the treaty of Pekln exe cuted in a fair spirit, and to that end to have Tien Tsln evacuated at the earliest possible moment by the foreign officers, so It will carry the Chinese appeal to govern ments concerned. Celebration Lead to Family Qaarrel. The firing of a miniature cannon on the Fourth and the trouble which ensued landed J. F. PJerrow and Oeorge Cathroe lr. (nil last night, Cathroe being the complaining; witness. The men are broths "-ln-Uw and live In adjoining houses at .Fifth and Cen ter streets. In preparation for the Fourth they made a brass cannon aeveral days ago. During the celebration a young son of PJerrow loaded the gun to the muaisle and then beguiled the 13-year-old boy of Cathroe to apply the match. As a result Cathroe, when he came home Inter, found his son's head swathed In bandages. The angry father than chastised the other boy and a quarrel ensued. Yesterday evening PJerrow came with a rasor to Cathroe's and kicked in the door. Cathroe grabbed his shotgun, but was restrained from using it by his sons. PJerrow retired and ac cidentally cut his own fingers with the rnsor. Cathroe wants his brother-in-law bound over to keep the peace. I bequeath to my children Scrofula with all its attendant horrors, humiliation and Buffering. This is a strange legacy to leave to posterity; a heavy burden to place upon the shoulders of the young. This treacherous disease dwarfs the body and hinders the growth and development of the faculties, and the child born of blood poison, or scrofula -tainted parentage, is poorly equipped for life's duties. Scrofula is a disease with numerous and varied symp toms ; enlarged glands or tumors about the neck and armpits, catarrh of the head, weak eyes and dreadful skin eruptions upon different parts of the body show the presence of tuber cular or scrofulous matter in the blood. This dangerous and stealthy disease entrenches itself securely in the system and attacks the bones and tissues, destroys the red corpuscles of the blood, when decay of the bones takes place! resulting in white swelling, a pallid, waxy appearance of the skin, lost of strength and a gradual wasting away of the body. , S. S. S. combines both purifying and tonic properties, making It the ideal rcmcay in an acromions anections. It builds up and. purifies the deteriorated blood, makes it rich and strona when all tubercular deposits are prevented, and a com plete and permanent cure is soon effected. S. S. S. improves the digestion and assimilation of (ivwl the lost propertiiM to the blood and quickens the circulation, bringing a healthy color to the skin and vigor to the weak and emaciated body.
