LONDON, July I At ths luncheon to the
Visiting American officer at the Carlton
club today Vice Admiral Lord Charlee
Eeresford read the following- message from
the prlnc of Wale:
I very much regret that an engagement
will prevent tne from being preeent. lease
axsjre the American naval officers how
sorry that I am unab'.e to have the pleas
ure of meeting them on this occasion.
At tb oontral table Lord Chsrles
Beresford presided. On hie right wae

aide to King Edward. Ambassador
Choate, Senator Oorman. Senator De
pew. Oeneral Lord Grenfell. the archdeacon
of London. Dr. Sinclair and Admiral Sir
John Dalrymple eat at the same table. The

Arthur Lee, M. P.; Perry Belmont, George
T. Wilson of New York, Hamilton MeCor
mlck of Chicago and Louis Hay of Michi
gan. The scene was picturesque.
Eur t Toast the Klsg.
In proponing the toast of "The King" Lord
Charlee Beresford said It waa particularly
easy to do so owing ta recent events In
which the king had been a messenger of
peace and good will toward all nations.
The Interests of the whole world favored
peace. He aaid the day was coming when
King Edward would be known as "Edward
the Peace Maker." The toast was drunk
with enthusiasm and then Lord Charles'
toasted President Roosevelt and asked why
the president waa liked In England. He
added! .
We like the man, we like the strong, gen
erous man, what 1 may call the real human
man. The president will do his level bent
to bring the two great English speaking
nations together In one harmonious whole,
which la the same idea King Edward had
n ttw-muhiii of tits visit eo the wreetdeat
of France. If President Roosevelt were to
come I believe the eolhuslam would be far
greater than In the case of snr rec-r-...i
ever accorded any visitor from any country.
Generally Drift Together.
Lord Charles Beresford said that1 when
there waa anything disagreeable abroad.
Great- Britain and America gener
ally drifted . together. If the two
nations got . together to maintain
their common Interests and commerce It
would make for the peace of the world.
Neither Great Britain nor America wanted
an alliance, but. the speaker added, "we
want an understanding. Both Great Britain
and America are Increasing their fleets, but
that la no more a threat to other nations
than Increasing the police force of their
cltlee la order to mantalri order."
Admiral Cotton, in replying, testified to
the warm feeling existing between the two
nation and their navies and recalled In
stances where British and Americana had
served together. He thanked the king and
f the people of Great Britain for the wel
1 come give to the Americana and pro-
posed the health of Lord Charles Bereaford
amidst great enthusiasm.
After luncheon Ambassador Choate held
a reception at hla house in honor of the
American officers.

declaration In favor of closer relations be
tween tb United Statee and Great Britain.

or even an understanding, but the lmpres
alosj waa clear from hla remarks that he
desired that the two nations movn to
gether for the peace of the world
Some of the king' ministers also im
pressed on the American officers their cor
dial, approval of the Monroe doctrine and
their desire that It. be supported by Ameri

It above all criticism.
The royal welcome was extended to the
American officers at Buckingham palace,
where at I SO the king entertained them
to dinner. The table was decorated with
Marecbal NslI rose and gold plat brought
from Windsor waa used. The king com

velt, for whom he said he entertained the
greatest consideration and admiration.
Ambassador Choate thanked the king for
the efforts for more cordial relation be
tween the great English-speaking natlona
The king further emphasised his grati
fication by writing a message to President
Roeeevelt. In which he aald It had given
hint, the greatest pleasure to welcome the
American squadron. King Edward's cor

Americas officers, who left the function

and Identified at Drummondvill this after
noon. One leg was torn off. presumably by the
propellor of Maid of the Mist near whose
landing the body waa found. M. A. Green,

Identified the body by the teeth, two crip
pled fingers and the clothing. The body
will be shipped to Washington tonight
Mr. Green this morning Identified the lug
gage left by Delehanty on the train at the
bridge last Thursday night when he waa
put off. In It waa a pass to the Washing
ton grounds made out to Mrs. Delehanty.
Delehanty'a effects have been sent to his
wife by the Pullman people.
Frank Delehanty of the Syracuse team
and E. J. McGulre, a brother-in-law from
Cleveland, are here Investigating the death.
They do not believe Delehanty committed
suicide or that he had been on a spree In
Detroit
In the sleeper on the Michigan Central
train on the way down from Detroit Dele
hanty had five drinks of whisky, says Con
ductor Cole, and became so obstreperous
that he had to be put oft the train at
Bridgeburg, at the Canadian end of the
bridge. Cole says Delehanty had an open
rasor and was terrifying others In the
sleeper.
When the train stopped at Bridgeburg
Cole did not hand Delehanty over to a
constable, as the Canadian police say he
should have done. He Just put htm off the
train.
After the train had disappeared across
the bridge Delehanty started to walk
across, which la against the rulea. The
night watchman attempted to atop him.
but Delehanty pushed the man to one aide.
The draw of the bridge had been opened
for a boat and the player plunged Into
the dark watera of the Niagara.
Delehanty'a relatives hint at foul play,
but there la nothing In the caae, appar
ently, to bear out auch a theory.

Morning Session.
WARD R0SEWATER DELIVERS ADDRESS
Te. Na Bad leal Difference Be
tween nlea Governing Newspaper
and Other Professions Confu
tation and Bylaws Amended.
"A Night at the Den" was not down on
the official program for the session yester
day morning of the National Editorial asso
ciation, but the suhjlct was much, though
guardedly, discussed as the delegates came
into the Crelghton-Orpheura from thirty
mlnutea to one hour after the appointed
time. And when accused of being late
they simply, but eloquently, pointed to
their Ak-Sar-Ben buttons.
B B. Herbert editor of the National
Printer-Journalist and father of the asso
ciation, had a paper on "Institute of Jour
nalist of Great Britain What Features
May Be Profitably Adopted by the N. E.
A.." but simply gave an outline of it and
turned It over to be printed in the official
proceedings, a volume of which will be Is
sued Immediately after the convention ad
journs. The English association was or
ganised the same year as the American
association, but haa evidently made much
greater progress. It maintains permanent
headquarters, always open, and with a sec
retary In charge. In London, has an "aid
fund," the money In which Is loaned out
when It ia not In use by unfortunate mem
bers, haa an orphans' fund and Is now car
ing for sixty children of deceased members
and haa a number of other features. Be
fore the World's fair In Chicago Mr. Her
bert proposed and urged that there be built
In this country a permanent Temple of
Journalism and Printing; he now renewed
the recommendation, in connection with
the Werld'a fair in St Louis next year,
and that other features of th English as
sociation be adopted.
Appolate Speclnl Committee.
On motion of Paat President Wllllama a
committee of five Walter Wllllama, Mle
eouri; B. B. Herbert Illinois; W. S. Cap
pellar, Ohio; W. J. Kline. New York, and
Judge Diamond of Loulalana waa ap
pointed to formulate plana In accordance
with Mr. Herbert'a Ideaa and present them
at the next convention, which will be held
In St. Louis.
XV. F. Parrott of the Reporter, Waterloo,
la., handed hla paper on "Practice What
You Preach Advertise Extra and Improve
ment Editions a Meana" over to the sec
retary for publication In the official record,
owing to the convention alresdy being sev
eral houra behind the printed program.
F. C. Rany of the Fort Bcott (Kan.) Re
publican told some pleasant and some un
pleasant things about newspapers In his
paper on "The Relation of the Newspaper
to the State.". He contended that the best
service to the state ran be rendered In this
country by the party press that the Inde
pendent pepers. without a policy, are the
princes of knockera and the Ishmaelltea of
the profession. But the party paper could
be absolutely .Independent, and tha' paper
which refuses to criticise Its own -party or
tarty leaders when they deserve It waa not
worthy of confidence. Among newspaper
men two kinda of leaden were found the
one who write what they , believe to be
true and urge It upon their reader, and
those who find out which way public aentl
ment la drifting and then rush down the
alley to the head of the procession and cry
"Come on, boya."
Edward Rettwaler Speaks.
Edward Rosewater spoke on "The Ethics
of the Profession." The unwritten code
which should govern new-papers In their
dealings with each other and the public had
never been defined aa had been the ethics
governing other professions. But so far
aa they were defined they were radically
different, In Important pointa, from those
adapted by the legal, medical and minis
terial professions. The ethics of the lawyer
provide that communications with hla
clients are sacred iy confidential, a very
convenient rule for many lawyers con
nected with legislatures and other public
bodies, aa It shields them from testifying
of things which would not bear the light of
day, and save many of them from the
penitentiary. Then the ethics of the pro
fession demanded that a lawyer by order
of the court be ready at all times to defend
any criminal. Thla waa diametrically op
posed to newspaper ethics, aa no newspaper
could be ordered to defend criminals.
Editors gin by Omission.
The ethics of the legal and medical
profeaslona are also alike In two parti
culars communications from their clients
are confidential and those who pay for
their advertisements are quacks, while
those who beat their advertising are
eminent physicians or Jurists. (Applause)
The ethics of the clerical profession are
like the others In that the ministers are
the repositories of confidence, and under
th cloak of charity, and aa spiritual
guides, shield wrong doing and th wrong
doer both from frlanda and th publlo
They are unlike th newspaper ethics In
this and also In that they allow ministers
to exchange pulpits changing from one
church to another. Newspaper men do
not exhange In this way. Neither the
priest, the lawyer nor the doctor receive
aa many confidences, or are aa faithful to
their trust aa the newspaper men. The
newspaper men had been blamed and
cursed for what they published, but they
are not by commission not a day passes
but the editor la asked to auppress wrong
doing in public or private life, and very
frequently he consents to do so.
Maxims of Charles A. Dana.
The maxima of Charlea A. Dana might
well be pondered by newspaper men,
though they by no means cover the ground,
and all of them, especially the one regard
ing advertising, might not alwaye be
practical. They are: '
L Copy nothing from another paper with
out perfect credit.
2. Never print an interview without the
knowledge and consent of the party inter
viewed. J. Never print an advertisement aa newa
matter. Iet every advertisement appear aa
sn advertisement. No sailing under false
colors.
4. t ight for your opinions, but do not be
lieve that they contain the whole truth or
the only truth.
i. Support your party. If you have one,
but do not think all the good men are In It
or the bad onea outside of it.
(. A word iliat is not spoken never fbes
any mischief.
T. All the goodness of a good esg cannot
make up for the badnem of a bad one.
1. If you find that you have been wronr
do not hesitate to say so. There Is a tradi
tion In some newspaper that you must

rule If a man has not the 'moral courage
to say "Yes. I was wrong and do not now
believe what I said at some former time"
If he has not the moral courage to eay that
he hd t-etter rtlre from business and'

ment John W. Cook of Illinois being made
president, an attempt was made by Presi
dent Butler of Columbia, supported by
President Eliot of Harvard to amend the
bylawa so that member of the nominating
committee might be appointed by the presi
dent Instead of by the atate delegatea.
Thla was strenuously opposed by Miss
Margaret A. Haley of Chicago, who made
such a forcible plea In favor of state rep
resentation that she succeeded In carrying
the meeting and routing the two well
known college presidents. The usual ses
alona of different departments were held
during the morning, while a majority of
the 10,000 visiting delegates spent the after
noon in sight-seeing, excursions being made
to many of the nearby towna of hlstorlo
Interest auch as Concord. Lexington, Ply
mouth, Province town, Cambridge, Salem
and Marblehead.
While many of the trips were for pleas
ure only, a number were for geological and
other educational purpose. One of them
was the canoe excursion up the Charlea
river of the department of physical train

IMPROVEMENT FOLLOWED BY SETBACK
Th pope thl morning la a till alive, but stilt at death'a door.
When he awoke yesterday his condition was so much Improved that
hope were expressed for his recovery, but during the afternoon he
suffered a severe relapse.
Dr. Rossonl waa called In consultation and a bulletin Issued describ
ing his condition aa most grave. Liquid Is again 'gathering In the pleura
and another operation may be necessary.
Before hla relapse the pope dealt with a number of matter of busi
ness and arranged to see all the cardinals now In Rome. He had re
ceived three when the relaps occurred.
There Is fear that death will now be cauaed by complete exhaus
tion. Cardinal Gibbons, before sailing today, said that he waa making

well for htm to be nearer Rome In the event of the pope' a death.

Fawcett Campaign In the
Big Sixth Wnrd.
While special Interest In the republican
Judicial primaries, which are to be held to
day, haa not been manifest on the surface,
considerable quiet canvassing haa been
going on in behalf of candidates seeking
support In the contested wards. The cam
paign reached the literature stage yester
day, when circulars were distributed to
republican voters in the Sixth, Eighth and
Ninth wards, extolling the claims of the
different candidates and soliciting support.
In the Sixth ward several workers re
ceived envelopea delivered by messenger,
containing a package of carda bearing the
name of the Fawcett delegation with a
circular letter and a $5 bill. The circular
letter waa signed by a so-called finance
committee with the names B. G. Burbank,
W. G. Shriver and two others attached.
The purport of the circular la to the effect
that the contest between Fawcett and
Redlck was one between the old machine
and anti-machine forces, and that to down
the machine again would require the defeat
of the Redlck delegation. The workers to
whom the circular waa addressed were In
formed that th committee relied on them
to get out the vote In their respective dl
tricta and hav it recorded for the Fawcett
delegation, and that the $5 bill waa to be
compensation for the time spent

tion h had opportunity to observe the at
titude of the various judges on the bench
toward organised labor and that Judge
Dickinson waa the only one who exhibited
a friendly feeling for the contentlona of the
unionists. He further urges that the trade
union people owe It to themselves aa well
as to the Judge to rally to hla support In
the present contest because, should he be
defeated, hla defeat would be heralded
thoughout the country aa another black eye
to the cause of the unions. Accompanying
the letter la a sample ballot marked for

About 12:45 this morning Ben Goodwin,
aged 17 .years, a bellboy at the Barker
hotel, fell through a skylight In the top of
the building where he worked and was
killed.
It haa been the custom for the employes
of the hotel to go out upon the roof of
the building during the hot weather to find
a cool spot. Several of them had gone to
the roof during the night and were sitting
about talking and enjoying the breeses.
Young Goodwin was In the company. He
had been altting on the roof, but got up
and sat on the edge of the skylight One
of the girls In the party cautioned him,
telling hhn to be careful or he would fall.
The words were hardly out of her mouth
when the boy crashed through the glass
and fell a distance of four stories, about
sixty feet. Uls companions on the roof
rushed below as quickly aa possible, and
several people who were In the office als
ran upstairs to the second floor, where he
alighted. He waa found lying on the floor
Insensible, never regained consciousness
and died In about twenty mlnutea after be
ing carried to the office and placed on a
atretcher. , ,
Goodwin' parent are aald to reside at
Scrlbner, Neh. k
. Dr. Wslket waa siiT nsnaed soon after the
accident occurred, but he could render no
assistance. He said that internal hemor
rhage waa the probable cause of death. He
also stated that the boy's back and one ot
his arms were broken by the fall.
Th boy had been employed at the hotel
about two months.
Coroner Bralley waa notified and removed
the body about two houra after the acci
dent occurred.

NEW YORK, July t. Cardinal Gibbons,
who goes abroad to be near Rome when
the conclave of cardinals Is called, should
the pope's Illness prove fatal, sailed today
on the steamship Latouralne. He was ac
companied by hla secretary. Father P. C.
GarvU.
The cardinal pointed out before Bailing
that he waa not summoned officially to
Rome to take part In the conclave. Such
a aummons, he aald, would coma only after
th death of the pope.
When th illness of th holy father took
a serious turn a few days ago he received
a cablegram from Cardinal Rampolla, the
papal secretary of atate, auggestlng that it
wouid be advisable for the cardinal to
come over.
"There la nothing for me to Bay." said
the cardinal. "I have been advised to go
over and In the event of the death of the
pope I shall proceed directly to Rom. If
he Is still alive, which may God grant, I
shall spend the time quietly resting. I
expect to be gone about two or three
months."

Pope Sleep several Honrs.
ROME. July 10.-4 a. m.: Aided by Injec
tions maue by his doctors the pope slept
several hours, on waking this morning
he rained hlt hands and waa found by Ir.
l.uponni in the attltuue of prayer. On the
doctor Inquiring whether he required any
thing hla holiness replied: "Today flnlahea
a week sinew 1 was taken 111. 1 am thank
ing God or having given me strength to
stnl play to Him.'
ROME. July 10. Another dsy of alternate
hopes and fears haa passed and Pop Leo'
life still hangs In the balance. Beginning
with renewed hopes, tbe day closed with
the acalca tending slowly but surely down
wardr. How long this agonising ausnenra
all! last not even the attending doctors
dare to nay.
No nlaht bulletin waa Issued, but at IMS
a. m. Dr. Mar.soni aald the pontiff's con
dition had not changed since the issue of
the evening bulletin at 7.94, which dubbed
It grave, and at which hour Dr. Laponnl
had declared his fear that t '.ere was no
hope, but that the end might not come
during the night.
At midnight a report ccmlng from the
Vatican Itself gained currency that Dr.
Mazzonl had again operated on the pope
and extracted serum which had again gath
ered In the pleural cavity.
May Operate Aaatn.
This, however, he denied, saying:
It Is untrue that a new operation haa been
performed. I waa with the pope from 11
p. m. until after .nidnlght nd found hla
general condition attlonary. no change
having taken place since this afternoon,
when the consultation with Dr. Rossonl wss
held. To strengthen the patient's heart
and help the circulation of the blood I in
jected camphor and caffeine.
I cannot say whether the serum In the
pleural cavity has Increased since the con
sultation this morning, as I did not ex
amine hi holiness for such a purpose. It
must be understood that the pope la too
frail to be handled like other people, old
age has caused him to bo bent In auch a
way that the right ride, where pneumonia
was first detected, curves out In a pro- .
nounced manner, while the 1. ft side curve

especially centered on the progress In the
secrxtlon of serum. Then a decision will
be taken aa to w nether a aew operation la
necessary.. , . ' . ,
Morning Condition Favorahle.
The condition of Pope Leo at times yes
terday morning seemed ao favorable that
the hopeful Dr. Maixonl and th mora
conservative laponnl united In expressing
the belief that there was a Might prospect
of recovery, but within a few hour these
brighter prospects disappeared before the
alarming conclusions reached after the
lengthy consultation of the doctora.
The earlier hopea had been Inspired largely
by the pontiff' a outward evidence of vigor,
aa he was able to rise, walk and command
all his faculties, but the latter ooneulta
tlon disclosed that these outward evidence
of strength were entirely deceptive, aa the
real danger consisted of the Internal prog
res of the Insidious disease.
The mere fact of the consultation In
itself gave rise to the gloomiest forebod
ings. Indeed, thla waa the first actual
consultation, aa the prevloua frequent
meetings of the doctora were not regarded
g formal consultations. Today, however.
Dr. RosBonl. the distinguished specialist of
the Baccelll school, waa called In. a con
aultatlon lasting two hours, during which
every phase of th patient' case waa
minutely gone over. The inclusions were
announced at 7:30 in the following bulletin:
The general eonditlon of the Illustrious
patient having r.eoome depressed, a con
sultation was held, with the participation
of Prof. Jvoasoni. From objective exainl

About the aame time Dr. Laponnl, speak
ing to a group of anxloua Inquirer, aald:
"I fear there I no hope, no hop what-'
ever, and yet tha end may not oorae to
night" When he awoke th pop was ufflclnUy
well thl morning to be shaved. Hla func
tional disorders had passed and consulta
tion with other physlclana waa consid
ered unnecessary.
The pope, on learning that Cardinal Ram
polla, the papal secretary of state, desired
to see him, received the cardinal at ;o
o'clock thla morning. Th pontiff aald he
had aeen with groat pleasure how th
aecred college wa Interested In, hla person

festatione from th good people of Rome.
After thl hi holiness spontaneously
asked Cardinal Rampolla whether ther
were any urgent affair to deal with, and
the cardinal made a short summary f th
principal pending queatlon. Th pop In
