rarled from that sent to the French gov

A further reason why the not to the

Prince Albert was the friend of Captain
Dreyfus, who had worked against th
French government and 'also because the
clerloo nationalists war la accord. If not
In th same field with M. Jeurea, th so

It hi said that Prince Albert was offended
becaus th lat Pop Leo at his last

PARIS. May 22. The recall of at, Nlsard.
't'reaun-' ambassador' W "th "Vatic!, con
tinues to be th absorbing topic Th am
bamador Is expected to arrive here tomor
row morning,' when he will confer with
Foreign Minister Deloass and go over th
detail of the rupture between France and
the Vatican preliminary .to the meeting of
the 'council of ministers on Tuesday, when
a further lln of action will be determined
upon.
Contrary to general expectations, Mgr.
Lorensellt, th papal nunolo at Paris, will
not leave his poet " ;fhe nunciature has
given out the following -tement:
"tJJ bp th present the nuncio nae re
ceived no orders to take hi leave, although
the state of his health might make It de
sirable. As Rome has no taste for replying
to provocations, but Is sorely conscious of
Its rights and duties, Mgr. Lorenaelll does
not regard the eventuality of his leave as
proximate,"
The tone of the Socialist papers Indicate
that that powerful element has urged th
government to take more extreme meas
ures. Deputy Garalt Richard says In the
Petite Republlque that the matter must
proceed until the concordat baa been
enacted.
Recall 'Which Dees Not Recall.
M. Clemenceau In L'Aurore ridicules the
granting of leave to Ambassador Nlsard as
being wholly Inadequate and Bay a It Is a
recall which does not recall and a rupture
which does not rupture.
The socialist paper Lanterne complain
that the government has not fulfilled the
promises made to the parliamentary lead
ers that a complete rupture would take
place, end declares that the leaving of a
charge d'affaires to carry on routine bwl
riess with the Vatican will not be satlnfac
tory. There Is nothing to do. It adds, but
to effect a oomplete withdrawal of the em
bassy end the embaary staff until not a
concierge or cook remains.
The more moderate elements appear to
be sntiefled with the course of the govern
ment, while the reactionary clerical papers
express regret, with - the exception of
IAutorlte, In which the Bonapartiat, Paul
T)e Cassngnae. expresses satisfaction that
the church declare open war egatnst the
republic . Tattle Is heard directly of the
sentiments of th clergy, who are prac
tically musiled by their official positions
under ths concordat
Pope Alone Responsible.
The Rome correspondent of the Temps
says that Vatican official circles lay great
stress upon the fact thai ths pope alone
directs the policy of the Holy See. When
Cardinals Vannutelll, Oottl. Agllardl and
Vive Y Tuto saw the pope on Thursday
nd Friday, according to the correspondent,
hi holiness foreshadowed the first stage
of the conflict, namely, the recall of Am
bassador Nlsard', but he declared eo ener
getically that he was responsible to God
slnne for his actions and was acting thus
for the greateat good of the church that
the cardinal did not dare to remonstrate.
The correspondent adds that the first
secretary of the embassy, De Kavenne, I
expected In Rome tomorrow and that he
will Immediately resume charge of the em
barey. It was stated at the Foreign office
thts morning that M. De Kavenne had not
yet left Pari.,
Not Aetlaar as Amhaasndor.
PARIS. May Ii.-Th Ministry of the
Interior authorise a denial of the state
ment that M. De Navenne, first secretary
of the French embassy to the Vatican,
will act as ambassador at the Vatican,
saying the government considers his act

of the ambassador.

BERLIN, May 83. There ha been con
siderable vague talk In the aewspapers rep
resenting the opposition since the recent
debate in the Prussian House of Lord that
the position of th German Imperial chan
cellor. Count von Buelow, has been shaken,
but so far aa Is ascertainable there is no
foundation for it
Several Influential agrarian leaders criti
cized the chancellor In debate, but abso
lutely nothing has occurred showing that
he haa lost the favor of Emperor William.
Both the emperor and Count von Buelow
attended the wedding of Count Eulenburg
on yesterday at Llebenburg. Official bust
re, interview are occurring a usual be
tween the emperor and the chancellor.
The Idea of making General Budde, Prus
sian minister of railroad, the successor of
Count von Buelow is regarded as ridicu
lous, his political experience being consid
ered much too Inadequate.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, May U. (Special.) It
would be comparatively easy to fill a news
paper page with tbe namee and records of
young men who have recently proved the
truth of Senator Dolliver's assertion that
thire are still opportunities In thts Country
for the able and ambitious young American
Charles G. Bennett secretary of the United
States senate is one of these. Mr: .Bennett
Is the youngest man who ever held the of'
flee. And senators, such as Allison, Piatt
of Connecticut Morgan and a score of
others who hav been a long time in the
senate do not hesitate to express the
opinion that he is the best man for the
place who ever held it He haa organised
the office in such a manner that it 1 today
the very antithesis of what It used to Do.
Neatness, order and good taste have sup
erseded confusion, dirt and disorder. Th
employe know what is expected of them
and they perform their tasks. The library
from being a mass of unsorted volumes
In all stages of dllapldlUon, has been made.
what It should always have been, a valu-1
able adjunct to senatorial work so systema
tise that any volume can be obtained in
ten seconds, whereas a week was some,
times required in the old days. Not many
years ago there was a pie and milk stand
In the main corridor of the senate. The
doorkeepers squatted down upon decrepld
chairs with a convenient cuspidor dirty and
naaty at their feet. The Janitors, appointed
for political service rendered, paid but In
different attention to their duUes, and in
fact every branch of the secretary' office,
as well aa that of the other admlnistr.tlve
divisions of the senate were conducted in a
slipshod manner which was a disgrace to
the country. But Charles O. Bennett, sec
retary, and Daniel N. Ransdell, sergeant
at-arma, have changed all this. Every'
thing has been reduced to a system. The
document room is as orderly as th library,
th aurroundlnga of the entrances are as
neat and orderly aa the senate chamber
Itself and tbe young man la responsible for
the change.
Elliott Vtsil aad Capitol Growmds.
It Is seldom tbat a young man is able to
how th "old fellows" that be is made of
the right stuff in so hort a time a Elliott
Wood ha required to demonstrate that
no mistake was made when he waa ap
pointed superintendent of the oapltol build
ing and grounds. Mr. Woods first big con
tract waa carried out in the fall of 1901,
when in a few months' time he tore out
all the Interior of the weat side of the old
oapltol building, formerly used aa the home
of the Congressional library, and completely
remodeled It The work waa a revelation
to men who are familiar with the alow pro
cess of oonstructlon work for the govern
ment and naturally when Mr. Clark, the
long time architect of th oapltol, died la
th fallowing January, Mr.. Woods was th
only man thought of as hi successor. He
ha held hi present office for two yeare
and eo well Is he regarded by the member
of the senate and bouse committees on ap
propriations that they have entrusted to
htm the work of construction of the new
office buildings for both tbe house and
senate as well aa the preliminaries for the
extension .of the capltol. At. Mr. Woods'
suggestion he has been authorised to em
ploy the services of some of the best archi
tects in the country a consulting experts,
but he himself Is charged with the proper
expenditure of nearly 10,000,000 and his
record guarantees that every dollar will
be properly expended and that the result
will be entirely satisfactory to all those
who will use the building which he will
construct. Mr. Woods is a young man,
almost boyish In appearance.
Builds Wlthoat a Scaadal.
The Pennsylvania members of congress
are very proud of a young man who ha
arisen to eminence in the architectural
profession In Philadelphia and Harrisburg,
A few years' ago the capltol of the state
was destroyed by fire. Designs for a new
building were invited from architects all
over the country. The award was made to
Joseph M. Huston of Philadelphia, a young
man who had become rather well known
through his work in the city of Brotherly
Love, but whose reputation outside that
city was still to be made. Mr. Huston
began work In earnest From the concrete
foundation, through the material for the
superstructure, up to the mural .decora
tions of the interior he Inspected every
pound of material and examined every
sketch himself. He visited the granite
quarries In New England and to the great
astonishment of "expert" of great experi
ence he demonstrated that it la possible
to get material out on time. He made
a trip to Europe, where Pennsylvania ar
tists are preparing the decorated designs,
to satisfy himself that hi Idea ar being
carried out He 1 building for the Har
risburg capltol one of the most perfect
publlo buildings in the world, and he Is
doing It without the waste of a dollar,
without the slightest breath of scandal.
He will finish it completely within the
specified time, and, what Is far more re
markable, within ths limit of the appropri
ation. George B. Cortelyoa' Record.
The selection of George B. Cortelyou for
chairman of the national republican com
mittee Is but another evidence that the
young men are rapidly forging to the front
In the affairs of this country. Mr. Cor

presidential office for the past twelve yea)

dent McKlnley chose him as the succeHS.ir
of the late John Addison Porter as presi

that gentleman In 1899. George B. Cor
telyou was first known to the newspaper
men of the capltol when a clerk In the
office of Assistant Poitmaster General
Maxwell In the second Cleveland admin

additional clerk in the executive office end
Mr. Maxwell recommended Cortelyou. The
appointment was made and President
Cleveland very soon discovered that he bad
obtained the very man be needed In hi
official entourage. Mr. Cleveland during
his first term had as his secretary Daniel
B. Lamont than whom no better fitted

DENVER, May K. The annual conven

which probably will be the most Import
ant gathering ever held by the organisa
tion, will open here tomorrow. Over 10
delegates from Kansas, Minnesota, Michi
gan and Alabama, as well as from th
western states, will sttend.
In the absence of President Moyer, who
Is still detained by the military In Tellu.
ride. Vice President J. C. Williams will
preside. Perhaps the moat Important mat
ter to be discussed will be the question of
opening meetings of local unions affiliated
with the federation.
While the miners are striking for an
eight-hour day, the federation will make
another determined effort to have the eight
hour law passed at the coming session of
the legislature. It appears to be the sen
of the miner that they shall not place
any tickets of their own In the field, but
"go down th line" for th party which
they believe best favor them.
It Is believed that President Moyer, Sec
retary Hayward and the executive board,
with possibly one or two changes, will be
re-elected. Another matter of great Im
portance will be the discussion of the af
filiation with tbe American Federation of
Labor. Max Morris of this city, who Is
fourth vice president of the Federation of
Labor, haa received a telegram from Pree

TOM JOHNSON IS FOR FOLK

Party.
CLEVELAND, May 22. Mayor .Tom L.
Johnson of this city. In an interview to
night, told why he would like to see Jo
seph W. Folk of Missouri the democratio
nominee for the presidency. Mr. Johnson
said that according to his view of the
political situation Mr. Folk would be a
harmony candidate; that l, he would
unite the factions that now adhere to either
Parker or Hearst interests, or the prin
ciples represented by these men. Folk waa
aid to be a free man aa regard any
entangling alliances in factionalism. - He
would be agreeable to Mr. Hill and Mr.
Cleveland and would be endorsed by Mr.
Bryan, Mayor Johnson believed.
The mayor said that hla opinion of Mr.
Folk did not necessarily mean that he
favored his nomination; there are other
men, he said, who more nearly represent
his Ideas and stand for what he does, but
these men would ' be sure to meet with
opposition from factional Interests In the
party and would be weak aa candidate.
Mayor Johnson 1 said he did . not believe
Mr. Folk was seeking the presidential nom
ination, that he was aa good aa elected
governor of Missouri, but no man has ever
turned aside the nomination of the preet-
dency and declined to be the leader of a
great party. . '

ST. PETERSBURG, May 22.-(New York
Herald Cablegram Special Telegram to Th
Bee.) A member of the general staff said
this morning that the report published in
a French newspaper, stating that th staff
had received notice on Wednesday last that
the Japanese had occupied New Chwang
wae without a foundation.
A large number of extra troops are flow
being poured Into Mnnc.hurla by meana of
steamboat on the Siberian rivers, the Ice
having now cleared.
The emperor, accompanied by the grand
duke, the heir apparent, and Grand Duk
Nicholas Nicolalevlch, has returned and
held today a review of troops at Gatchlna
In honor of the bicentenary Jubilee of the
culraSHler of the Emi'-'.-a Marie. The
monarch' tour haa. been ut the highest de
gree successful, the troops having ac
claimed him with the wildest enthusiasm.
The latest news from the front shows that
the Japanese are weakening their right
flank and strengthening their left flunk
and center. They are evidently much dis
appointed at the lack of Chinese assistance,
while they have suffered a series of amall
defeats.
Much Irritation Is expreased over the re
port of the French minister in Peking, say
ing that an international congress possibly
would settle the war questions. This coun
try has not the slightest intention of allow
ing any congress to settle matter between
It and the Japanese and It 1 felt to bo
particularly malapropos for a diplomatlo
representative of Russia's ally to suggest
an Idea which touches thla country at the
sorest point

PARIS. May 23.-(New York Herald
Cablegram Special Telegram to The Bee.)
The Herald's European edition publlabe
the following from It military expert:'
"People aro wondering what credit really f
ought to be placed in the dispatches from
all source when it is learned from com
munications apparently effloiat that a des
perate battle he been fought by General
Stoessel e troops near Kin Chou with two
Japanese divisions. In order to allow a
train to enter the Kwang Tung peninsula
with ammunition and supplies destined to
Port Arthur, where it arrived, thank to
the protection of the troops. In order
that a train filled with all aorta of aup
plies, which were doubtless put an board
at Llao Yang or Hal Cheng, could erriv
at the iBthrau of Kin Chou, It la necessary
that it must have been free to pass be
tween tbe two point without breaking
bulk: that 1 to aay, that the line mint not
have been cut Now It haa been announced
on different occaalona during tbe last few .
week not only that the Japanese had de
stroyed the line for a rather long distance
at several points, but that they had blown
up several bridge and other atructures.
Thua It will be seen how careful cne ought
to be in too readily putting faith in th
most likely news. Unices the train In
question only existed In the Imagination of
some officious newsmonger one must con
ider it an established fact that the de
fenders of Port Arthur hav mad a vehe
ment demonstration and Inflicted by thl
stroke serioua losses on the enemy,
"On th othor hand, frequent sorties of
torpedo boats - and that of the ' cruiser
Novlk clearly . demonstrate that th en-,
trance to the port la again tree. If It ever
was- blocked for any Instant
Position I Onaenre,
"But what remains obscure la th exact
position of the two ermlea. and U la dla--
cult to believe th report from Bt. Patera- ;
burg that 'the flanking movement mad by ' .
the Russians In the direction of th Yalu
1 extending,' unlesa General ICouropatkln,
Informed of tbe raid made, It I believed,
by General Kurokl north of Mukden, haa
determined to seek to cut off the rear of
his communication to push' him further
north and afterward crush him with all
bis troop.
"Again, one can only par botnag to tbe -Cossack
cavalry, which la making Itself
famous everywhere. ' Sometime It le In
th heart of Corea or In th vicinity of
Wonaon, where It attack th citadel Of
the Kankow, after having destroyed the
bridge at Anju and the telegraph to ring
Yang. Sometime It I in Manchuria,
where at every point It 1 harassing, halt
ing or charging on the Japanese columns
lying in wait for prey. They shoot point
blank at the outposts of the enemy, of
whom one. General Kouropatkln ay. 'wag
thus dislodged consecutively from four
positions over an extent of twelve mile'
on May IK.
"Tbe Cossacks, worthy of their pre
cessora, show every day by their acta
a bold cavalry, thank to It Or and to CS0
awlftnea of it horse, can today pit Itself
and win against Infantry armed with th
most perfect rifles. And the desire of
General Kouropatkln, who I alwaya ask
ing for more cavalry, Is a striking Justifi
cation of those who in Europe hav reason
to think that thl arm of the service.
Judiciously employed and taking into ac
count the teaching of recent war, la
destined to render valuable service."
