The building Is till Incomplete, but the
' participants In Tuesday evening's function
will suffer little Inconvenience from that.
As for the hall. Its beauty and the elabor.
: ateness of Its trimming will depend upon
the public spirit of those of the city who
have the wherewith to make It beautiful
and their willingness to lend It ' Bunting,
flags, greens and potted plants will be em
ployed In a scheme of decoration that will
at least relieve the incompleteness of Its
skeleton appearance and give a festival air.

arranged detail. It Is located down stairs,

The resignation of Miss Clara Barton
from the presidency of the Red Cross so
ciety can only be a matter of Bin cere re
gret to those who have watched the
splendid work she has done, particularly
as her withdrawal Is so evidently the re
suit of the unpleasantness that have
brought to the society such regretable no
toriety during the post year or so. Miss
Barton withdraws, it Is said, because she
feels keenly the position in which she has
been placed and that ber retaining the
presidency can only prolong the unpleas
antness. The succession of Mra John A.
Logan, former vice president to the first
office Is most acceptable . to all.
Miss Barton baa been president of the
American Red Cross since its formation,
In 1SSL It was Introduced In this country
by her after her becoming acquainted with
the International Red Cross during the
Franco-Prussian war, and it was due -to
the efforts of Miss Barton that it was
adopted by our government During the
civil war Miss Barton did relief work on
battlefields. She organized 1 a search for
missing men and laid out grounds for a na
tional cemetery at Andersonvllle. Mis
Barton waa associated with the Interna
tional Red Cross during the' Franco-German
war, and was at Strasburg in 1870
and Pari in 1871. She was appointed . to
represent the United State In International
conference at Geneva in 1884, Carlsruhe
In 1887, Rome in 1892, Vienna in 1897 and
Bt. Petersburg in 1903. She distributed re
lief during the Russian famine In 1892, the
Armenian massacre In. 1896, and at the re
quest of the president of the United State
carried relief .to -Cuba in. 1898. She did
perse r.al field work during the Spanisir-
American war and conducted Red Cross
relief work at Galveston, Tex., after the
great disaster n August 1900. M1b Barton

LONDON, June 4. King Edward's, activ
ity In the field of International diplomacy
has given rise to some uneasiness In For'
elgn office and other government circles,
which finds -special vent in the comment
regarding the forthcoming meeting of the
king with Emperor William at Kiel.
The Spectator voices this feeling today,
expressing grave alarm at the posslbill
ties which may ensue from King Edward'
. . . '
vxvimnn vibil, saying:
"It is suggested that the emperor will
take the opportunity of hi royal uncle'
visit to entangle us in some form of agree'
ment with Germany, or that even if things
do not go so far as that, Emperor William
will somehow manage to compromise u
In the region of foreign politic. When
we remember what happened on the last
visit of the emperor to England, how the
British government against it will and
Interests and apparently without Its
knowledge was drawn Into the Venexuelan
mess and the Bagdad railroad embrogllo,
we can hardly wonder at this feeling of
anxiety. We feel pretty sure that a de
termined attempt will t made by the
Germans to compromise us. "The emperor,
Indeed, Is almost bound to make the at
tempt, so sore are his people at their
present isolation and reported failures in
the region of International policy. We may
then confidently expect that Germany Is
preparing to act on, the maxim of 'when
in doubt and difficulty pull England' leg;
it Is too stupid to understand what we are
doing.'
May Try to Help Russia.
'Germany, therefore. Is always trying to
produce evidence to pj-ove that it is In
reality Russia's best friend, .and that
though It Is not bound by any alliance,
as Is France, its good will Is much more
active and more efficient than that of
France. Suppose Germany, in the most
friendly, and most disinterestedly -way,
were to talk to us, not about Intervention,
that Is naturally not to be thought of
considering the apeclal relations between
Great Britain and Japan, but about help
ing Russia to make peace honorable to It
and favorable to the best Interests of all
the powers interested In' the far east In
cluding Japan. If the suggestion of Em
peror William for Joint British and Ger
man action are of this kind or for an
ticipating the course of event In Mace
donia, Asia Minor or Syria, we trust they
will be met at the very outset with a sim
ple non-possumu and that we shall re
fuse to even test with a toe the surface
of the bog, which we ehall be assured I
quite firm."
The Associated Press understands that
King Edward will be accompanied to Kiel
by a member of the Cabinet, probably For
eign Minister Lansdowne, so that the
Foreign Office will be in a position to
keep In touch with all -development and
advise the king on the spot .
CARINALS OBJECT TO CUT
Bay They Cannot Live on I,ess
Than, Their Present Al-
loweace.
(Copyright, 1904, by Press Publishing Co.)
ROME), June 4.-New Tork World Ca
blegramSpecial . Telegram.) The pope Is
having serious trouble in hjs efforts to ar
range for a curtailment of the sjllowance
made to each of the cardinals from the
Vatican treasury. Aa soon a the car
dinal heard of the plan they appointed
a committee to inform the pope that their
present salary of tv.OOO a year wo barely
sufficient to pay the great expenses to
which the rule and regulations governing
the sacred college subject them. They
told the pope that It cost each of them, on
appointment, about 120,000 in fees to the
curia, and In procuring the necessary para
phernalia of their position. The - rules
oblige them to keep a carriage with at
least two horse of a prescribed else and
color, which come very high in the Roman
market as only one special breeder can
furnish them.
Moreover, ftie apartment which each of
the cardinals must furnish, and the rent
for which must come out of his private
purse, Is expensive, for besides living rooms
for himself and hi relative he must
have a certain number of waiting ' rooms
and a throne room, which are to be found
only In the finest places of the Eternal
City. The cardinals who belong to religious
orders and the prefect of some of the Im
portant congregations receive from their
order or the curia apartments free from
rent but such Is not the case with the
majority of them. The rules also pre
scribe a certain number of servants, a pri
vate secretary, a coachman and a foot
man. The cardinals submitted these facts
tp tbe pope, and It I probable that some
of the rules will be modified so as to re
duce the necessary personal expenses of
tfie cardinals.
Cardinal Oreglia, dean of the sacred col
lege, who had not been consulted about
the matter, wrote to each of the cardinals,
calling his attention to the fact that some
of the latter did not sufficiently uphold the
dignity of their positions, and -that the
proposed change In the rules would place
some of them on a footing even lower
than that of prelates of an Inferior order.
Many of the cardinals did not take kindly
to the rebuke and some of them went so
far as to suggest to the pope that If Car
dinal Oreglia had only his salary to de
pend upon he would favor the proposed
reform, but that be Is one of the richest
members of the sacred college, reaeivtng
an additional income of about tlS.OOO a
year from hi suburban diocese and from
the abbey of the Tre Fontane, of which
he Is the honorary abbot '
Plus X, however; has not found it pos
sible to deprive Cardinal Oreglia of on
the many office he holds. But the
Trapptst monks of Tre Fontane, who have
reclaimed a large tract of land adjoining
the walls of Rome, and who live by their
labor, have represented to him that they
are very poor and that It would be de
sirable if some of the income now given
to the cardinal abbot were retained for
their support. It Is hardly possible that
anything will be done about the matter,
as Plus X Just now does not wish to dis
please any of the cardinals, especially the
can, but It Is possible that the rules of
the sacred college will be so modified as
to suit the purses of the poorer members,
safeguarding at the same time the dignity
of their positions.

Mr. C. E. Wilkins who purchased a WINTON Tour
ing Car from Mr. Fredrieksou last year has just placed
his order for another one of these machines of the 1904
Model. Mr. Wilkins is one of Omaha's oldest and most
experienced Automobilists and when he talks on the sub
ject of Automobiles his voice is one of thorough experi
ence and his judgment of considerable consequence. Mr.
.Wilkins closes his order for his new machine as follows:
'Tlease urge the factory to rvh this ear to me quickly a jpossible, as '
J wish to go on my yew Tork-St. Louis Tour, leaving Omaha about June
t5th, and I detirt to use this car for this extreme hard service, because I
know the W1NTON is built of the best materials and the design and con
struction of the horizontal Motor is, to my mind, eminently practical for
this hard and practical service to which I vrill subject the car. ITiis order;
Mr. Fredrkkson, should further convince you of my unquestionable belief
ihattheWINTOXis KIXO." -
Mr. 'Wilkins traveled enough miles in his1903 WIN-.
TON Car to cross the continent several times and his
second order for one of these elegant and durable
machines is a high tribute to the excellent service and
satisfaction which the WINTON Touring Car gives. ,
