ROME, July 28. (Special Cablegram to
The r.ee. The exploration of the Forum
Pomanum, tinder the careful and method
ical direction of Commendatore Botil, ha
yielded during the last six months many
results of no ilttie importance and has
raised one question, at' least, of great In
terest to r.oman archaeology namely, the
valise of bucchero ware as an Indication
of date.
A large quantity of bucchero ware Is
ll forthcoming from the excavation of
the Ropulcrotum, situated by the side of
the Via Sacra, at the foot of the Temple
of Faustina. Hut Its presence In these
tombs of a primitive people only tends
to confirm preconceived theories, and
therefore causes no surprise. Slrmor Bonl
has published an Interesting account of his
discoveries on this spot In the Nuova
Antologia of February 1 of this year.
Seventeen more tombs hare been dlscov
red since that date, raisins; the total num
ber today to forty-two, though no new
characteristics have been revealed.
The place of Interment was the marshy
hollow between two hills. No trace of
paths nor any artificial preparation of the
ground can be traded In the original soil.
The presence of the tombs, however, Is
generally indicated by a blackening of the
soil Immediately above them, due to Ihe
ashes of the funeral pyre; and, wherever
the excavated earth takes this darkened
hue, the greatest care and caution Is ob
served in searching for the deposit below.
The interment were made at different
levels, eomotlmea In cinerary urns and
sometimes In wooden coffins. The coffins
have yielded little but aiiiber and bronxe
ornaments and occasionally beads. In the
dolla, or urns, have been found Jraces of
gold and silver, the usual bucchero ves
sels, and a few "hut urns"' or small clay
models of primitive dwellings.
Dates Are la Doubt.
It Is possible that dolla and wooden
coffins were contemporaneous, but no date
can be fixed absolutely for their period.
except that it is improbable that any de
posit could be later than 700 B. C. Nor
Is it posBthlo to .define the limit of the
area of their place of burial, which may
extend far beyond the foundations of the
Temple of Faustina, the Regl and the
Domus Publico, which prevent any wider
extension of their exploration.
Bucchero wara, however, has been found
In another deposit, of which the datnd
that a comparatively recent one is by no
means uncertain. The discovery last year
by Bignor lionl, of the baso of the eques
tralit statu of Domltlan seems at last to
bare won general acceptance, though It
was greeted at the time in the same grudg
ing and unwilling spirit as his earlier dis
covery of the tomb of flomulua. Relying
on a theory of ills on, baaed upon the
customary rites of ancient Inauguration,
end row proved to be well grounded. Signer
I'.orl node an opening in the middle of
the east side of the concrete base In search
of th foundation atono. This stone, con
sisting of a cuble block of travertine con
taining a carefully cut square chamber
and covered by a large flat travertine slab,
was found at once. On the removal of
the travertine slab there were discovered
In the chamber five vases, of which three
were of the, ordinary bucchero type and
tiia other two of red ware, but of the same
antique form. Inulde oue of the vases
was found traces of charcoal and a small
fragment of gold ore. The Interest of this
discovery Jles In the presence of bucchero
In a monument of so late a period; for
nobody h. ever supposed that the um of
pure bucrharo, for ritual or other pur
poses, bad continued so l&te as the time
of Doniitlan, and its presence has hitherto
beeu considered a reason for assigning an
almost prchlstorlo date to the tombs and
other receptacles in which It was found."
It has been suggested and the suggestion
la hlahly Improbably that these particular
vnacs may have been taken from the xri
vato collection of Domltlan.

DUBLIN, July Si (Special Cablegram to
The Bee.) At their annual meeting at
Maynooth, Cardinal Logue presiding, the
Roman Cethollc blshopa adopted a long
and Important statement covering th
wholo field of Irish education. The '
ment saye: y
We feel thnt any llmltatlo'- ,. " '
of the control which le - . ' x -
wnRer ovr the scv . v ' .oinal
system of education . V .rlous to
the religious interests ,ople as to
mk It Imperative on . -J resist the In
troduction of such a roe-tiure, and, in ceee
It wre adopted, to reconelder our whole
poeltion In relailon to those schools.
The statement goes on to say that
whatever defects exist In the present
system of national education may be
remedied within the system without
recourse to a revolution which would
convulse the country, and suggests
certain "simple and obvious reforms" to
thla end. Tha alternative to the present
Board of National Education of a govern
ment department subject to the British
parliament and directed by governmental
officials would be most . objectionable to
the Irish people and would mean another
outwork for Dublin castle and a further
opportunity of practical ascendency for a
favored sect. The statement says:
It is suspicious to see the chief secretary,
who refuses the great educational reform
that nine-tenths of the Irish people earn
estly and persistently dmand, pressing
upon us ch&njres which the country does
not eek and which run counter to all our
religious sentiments.
The bishops ridicule the suggestion of co
education es or as Ir!h Pmn Cathollca
are left without a university to complete
the system, and "even the limited proposal
towards which the chief secretary has
some privae and underhand inquiry In
progress at the present moment is utterly
impracticable and cannot be entertained
by Irish Catholics," The statement con
cludes: The first condition of a radical reform
of Irish education la the establishment of
a unlvereity syntern that the vae. majority
of the Irish people will accept. Until that
Is done we shall all regard tills talk about
co-ordination and local control and educa
tional protrr tneiocre and es aimed at
lessening clerical that is, Catholic Influ
ence In the schools rather thau at promot
ing their educational efficiency.
The meeting also adopted a resolution
on the university question, on the alleged
exclusion of Roman Catholics from public
appointments, and on recent protestant
criticism on. Roman Catholic church build
ing. The bishops adopted also the following
resolution, which It may be feared will be
taken as a pretext for the revival of the
activities of the "Cathollo association":
That while we ask no consideration for
Catholics tnat we do not desire for ail
othera In rtgnrd to state or company or
bu8ir,ss employment, and while we utterly
repudiate the Idea of excluding protectants
or any one else from any position to which
they are entitled on their merit.i, we con
rioer that the utterly Indefensible state of
things to vhlch attention Is called in tha
forexolng Is so dlscouroKlng to our peopie,
so fata! to effort and enterprise,, and con
sequently so ruinous to the country as a
whole, that we think the attention of the
puhllo men, and the press of the country
and the full force of enlightened puhllo
opinion should be concentrated upon It
until the monopolists are compelled to
ei'md on exactly the nam footing as the
rtt of their fi-liow countrymen in publia
opportunities and advantages.

JOHANNESBURG. July ?il. (Special Ca
blegram to The Bee.) The first batch of
Chinese laborers, numbering 1,500, baa ar
rived and they were taken direct to the
Comet mine, on the East Rand. The ar
rangement for tha reception of the new
comers were carried out without a hitch
under the personal supervision of Major
Begot, head of the foreign labor depart
ment of the Chamber of Mines, who trav
eled In the same train from Durban, and
ot Mr. Kellman, manager of the Eoat Rand
Proprietary mines.
It was noticeable bow orderly and well
behaved tha men were. This first con
signment of laborers was recruited in
southern China, and the men, though not
of conspicuous physique, are regarded a
satisfactory material.
Berl-beri broke out on board the steamer
Tweeddale. The dtneaso attacks the nerve
system and takes various forms. It la'jt
endemic In a high, dry climate such as
obtains in the Rand and it Is considered
by tj -frts lmpoxnlb'.e that It should break
out here. The change of climate Is likely
to eradicate all traces of the discaae
among the Chinese. ..

Relations Between the Two
Government to a bon.
don Correspondent.
LONDON, July 2S. (Special Cablegram to
The Bee.) "The German army does not
lovo the British army, and when the forces
meet every Teuton will fight In a spirit of
personal end private enmity toward the
Britisher who faces him."
The man who ventured on this ominous
prediction was no less interesting an au
thority than Herr Frits BUse, former lieu
tenant of tha German army, mho, after
being Incarcerated for six months in the
military and civil prisons of Met, and
Btranbourg, has arrived In London on a
brief visit. '
Ex-Lieutenant Bllso, It may be remem
bered, recently published a novel in Ger
many called "In a Small Garrison Town."
The book esposed many evils and scandals
connected with the German military life
and so thinly cloaked was the Identity of
tha principal characters that the author
was court-martialed for Insulting and
libeling .its superior officers. The book was
suppressed and the lieutenant consigned to
prison.
No novel of modern times has created
more discussion or enjoyed a larger sale.
In Vienna, whence German readers ob
tained the book, 00,000 copies have been
sold, and in Peris 110,000. In London It
was tha novel of the yeer, numerically
speaking. Altogether the book has been
trar.alated Into fouru-en different languages,
'The cause of the ill-fooling In the Ger
man army against the British army," the
ex-lieutenant said yeeterday, "le that In
tba early stages of the South Afrloaa war
a photograph of Emperor William whloh
decorated the officers' moss of tha kaiser's
favorite regiment in London was destroyed
because the emperor sent that telegram to
President Kruger. Thla act angered the
whola German army. They remember It
still, and, although I greatly admire the
British army and peop!a, I fear my former
comrades will never forget what they re
garded a a personal Insult. The thought
of it would act as a spur It the two armies
came In conflict.
, , Emperor m Friend of England.
"But I doubt If' that day will arrive dur
ing' the lifetime o 'the present emperor.
He is a good friend to England and in
consequence has made many enemU In
Germany."
"Do you suggest that the German army,
with the exception cf tha kaiser, is anxious
to try conclusions with vaT" Herr Bilse
wee asked by a Dally Mall representative.
The soldier-author laughed. "Tes per
haps," was the diplomatic answer. He
pointed out that when the combined Euro
pean armies were ln China the Gvsrman
officers held a dinner to which representa
tives of all the foreign regiments .ere
invited excepting the British. The fact
that the English language was absent
from the speeches was referred to by one
orator. "We do not want the English
language here," Bald a German speaker,
"r.or do we want the English people."
During his imprisonment Herr Bliss com
pleted a second novel and started a third.
Both books will be published In London by
Dr. John Lane, whose guest the author
Is at present. Tha ex-lieutenant ts a care
fully attired young men with a square
Teutonic face and a lithe, gracefully pro
portioned frame more typical of the Brit
ish aubeltern than the German. His pcl
Uhed manners would not 111 become one of
Oulda's perfect guardsmen.
While In the German prisons he received
no fewer than S.OGO letters, but he was not
allowed to have his Dally -Mall, of which
previouely he wee a regular reader.. One
of his comrades in dlntress wss an officer
serving ten months imprisonment on no
fewer than A thousand charges for treating
111 tha ol(lrs under him.
"But In COO cases,'" proceeded the ex
lieutenant, "the maltreatment consisted
only of using 'hard worda' Jt a German
officer addresses a German private too
vigorously or touches him with tha tip of
his little finger the man can charge him
with maltreatment. The great majority
of the 'German military aoondala' puhllahed
In the English papers are in reality trifling
affairs of this kind."
Herr Bitee has read the report issued by
the committee on the reconstltutlon of the
British army "which," be said, "has evi
dently many faults in common with the
German army."
"You will never have a good army In
England," he declared, "until you adopt
conscription. The beet proof of that Is tha
German army, the finest In the world. But
It has Imperfections, although tha kaiser
wss not wsr t f t'e fart unfit he read my
book."
Herr Bilste propoe.s to visit Aldershot
for. the purpose of studying tha British
military system at close quarters.

SYDNEY, July B. (Special Cablegram
to The Bce.)--Mr. Waddell, the new pre
mier. In a speech at Cowra this wevk, set
forth the policy of the government. He
said that the government was determined
to continue the economical course pursued
during the last twelve months and to pine
the publlo accounts and the credit of the
country on the soundest footing known
since the foundation of the colony. Bor
rowings would be limited to 1,500,000 a
year, exclusive of redemption loans, and
no additional taxation would be Imposed.
During the decade which ended with 15110
the average annual borrowings amounted
to 2.740,000, while for the decade ended
with l'00 the average was 4,130,000.
The exleting sinking fund would be
merged and 400,000 would be pr.ld annually
from the revenue for redemption purposes.
This fund would be placed under the con
trol of an Independent trust, empowered
temporarily to invest and buy local stocks
when low. Each minister was now rigidly
scrutinizing his own deportment with a
view to reducing . expenditures and en
abling the estimates to be framed on the
moet economical basis. No new appoint
ments would bo made to the civil service
for a number of years.
It was intended that the railway d3-
partment should construct its own loco
motives, but the manufacture of steel rails
and other Iron implements required by the
government would be left to private en
terprise, which would be encouraged in
every reasonable way.
A board of industry, manufacture 'and
trade would be immediately appointed to
keep commercial agents in England, South
Africa and the east posted up in the prices
of products. One great feature of the
policy of the- government would be to re
sume large estates In districts near mar
kets. The closer settlement act would be
amended to empower the government to
resume any estate. Free railway passes
and other facilities would be provided for
Intending settlers to inspect the land.
The liquor act would be amended eo as
to abolish doubtful clubs and provide for
a steady diminution In the number of
hotels throughout the stats. Females un
der 21 would be prohibited from serving
in bars, and youths under 18 would not be
allowed to purchaae Intoxicants. The edu
cational system would be Improved by the
establishment of modol schools In the
country, with a training college for teach
ers and a university chair of pedagogy.
The mining laws would be amended, and.
In order to facilitate operations, state bat
teries would ,bo established In the perma
nent fields.
The government Intended to submit to
Parliament a resolution favoring Carcoar

. Parishes.
i
LONDON. July .-(Specle.l Cablegram
to Tha Bee.) The eppallltig poverty of
clergymen In poor pa lehea Is one of the
saddest phases of th religious life of
today. This poverty Is not the least of the
causes which have led to ie accusation of
"paganism" being hurled against the coun
try. C. ' Oulse Witford, who, as secretary rof
the Queen Victoria clergy fund, In a
position to speak with authority, v, .... In
terviewed on tha subject this week. .
"As long," said he, "as the Intellectual
and social standard of the clergy Is kept
as low as it la, so long will the churches
be empty. .
"How can A clergyman who has not
enough to eat, nor money to buy - decent
clothes and books of roference, be expected
to do his parish work and preach good
sermons, torn as he Is with domestic wor
ries? "Tho artisan of .today is a reader, a
thinker and a politician, and he will not
attend the church of a clergyman who has
lost prestige.
"One of tha few remedies for this evil Is
the compulsory amalgamation of parishes
where the clergy are anxious to work, but
have no work to do.
"The poverty among the clergy la appal
ling. I know of one clergyman In the
Norwich dloceae, the poorest In England,
whose living was worth under . He
lived tn a cottage In the middle of a potato
field and supplemented his Income by sell
ing old clothes which had been given him.
"He reached his bedroom, with Its bed,
washstand and solitary chair, by- a ladder!
A 'varelty friend gave him a pair of cur
tains and theae, he 'used to patch up the
chancel of his church.
"With Archdeacon Sinclair's remarks
about 'pagan Londoners' I disagree. The
man who. after a strenuous week's work,
aeeks a Sunday In tha country Is not a
pagan, end, as a matter of fact, the rows
of ryr!s out.ide the cnmvhes In the coun

CHICAGO, July 23. Attempts to settle
the second strike of th packing trades
failed today and tonight the butchers'
union and allied organizations, after a long
conference, sent an ultimatum to the
representatives of the packers demanding
a settlement of the strike before Monday
morning on penalty of a general walkout
of all union employee at work In the stock
yards at 7 o'clock Monday morning.
The conference between the representa
tives of the allied trades and the packers
and the butchers, which adjourned last
night, after falling to reach an agree

At noon the conferees gave up hope of
reaching an understanding and delibera

after the packers had expressed a desire
to llv up to the terms of the arbitration
agreement reached last Wednesday. They
also agreed to light any wrongs that
might have been committed by their fore

., t'ltlmatnm of Strikers.
Mr. Edward Morris knd Aeeoclates:
After careful confederation by the repre
sentatives of the Teamsters' and Mercan
tile Trades, we have come to the conclu
sion that tho agreement which was reached
on Wednesday hss been flagrantly vio
lated by the packers to tha extent of ren
dering it, in our opinion,, hull and void,
bence wa cannot consistently expect the
butcher workmen to renew It In its pre
ent form because of such violation.
We dejtlre t. emphasise our belief in th
principles of conciliatory arbitration, but
to provide afralnst such violations In the
future, w aaaln. offer the following propo
sltlona a a solution of the, present diffi
culty: '
That all employes b hired back within
ten day. Any person not employed at the
end of the.t time, his or. her case will' be
submitted to arbitration. '
That all killing, cutting and casing de
partment men be reinstalled in their former
positions within forty-eight hours after the
resumption of work.
We res-ret to say that If tha fore-olng
propositions are not acceptable to you the
allied trades will cease work-on . Monday
morning. Trusting, however, that you will
co-operate with us to bring about an
amicable understanding and thus avert
the poBHlhillty of a widespread strike, wo
are reHoeotfully yours,
GKOnOB F. GOLDEN, Charlman.

. Reply of th Packers.
The' reply of the combined puckers to
th ultimatum of : the allied trades was
delivered late tonight. The communication,
which Is addressed to Chairman Golden

Gentlemen: Your communication of this
afternoon haa been received and carefully
noted. We most emphatically deny thr.t
there has been any violation of tli agree
ment on our part. Our explanation after
Investigating every euppoae.l case should
hav satisfied every one present at the
taut two conferences that ttier were no
deviations but what might be expected
in putting to work aurh a large body cf
men at one time and but what could neve
bee n r'.-aillly aci.Uuued had the organisation
den! red to do so.
W regard Mr. Donnelly's action as en
tirely unj untitled in calling the second
strike on aeiptailonal and m'lad!ng re
ports within an. average of thirty minutes
time from the. time the men war ordered
tj work, and before it was possible for
any considerable number to hav been
placed, without making the slightest eflort
to verify aui-h report or to have them
remedied if found to exist.
We have a definite agreement with our
employes, the aame having been Binned by
tneir repreeniuvM auii tne representa
tives of the mei'tix ni i.l and allied trades,
and w stand ready on our pert to ae that
it Is carried out. Yours truly,

baa arrived here. It reports thnt tba
crutstrrs 8. Petersburg of th Russian To
unteer squadron signalled it July 1 whw
twenty hours from Sues, asking It where IS
was from and where it waa bound, after
which the Ceylon waa allowed to proceed,
Tbe St.. Petersburg at the tUn'e was con
voying a German merchant ship.'"' ' 1 '
The vessel which the St. Petersburg wes
convoying possibly was the German eteor.ter
Scandla, referred to in a dispatch from
Sues early this morning as .then having
just ' arrived at Sues flying the Russian
naval flag, commanded by a Russian naval
officer and manned by a naval ertw.f The
Scandla hails from Hamburg and passed
Gibraltar July 6 On Its way to Chine.
The Scandla, In charge of a Russian prlx
crew, has entered the canal.
HAMBURO, July 23.-The officials cf th
Hamburg-American . line declare that th
seizure of tbelr . earner Scandla by tha
Russians Is Inexplicable, as its manifests
show It did not carry any kind of war
material for ' Japan. The company has
asked th foreign office to tifke up the
matter and secure an explanation.
The company has mode tho following
statement:-; - ,
The capture -of the Scandla appears to be
Inexplicable. Its manifest show that no
war material In any form for Japan wae on
board. The Hamburg-American company
at the beginning of the war instructed
Its representatives to make It thHr special
duty not to accept contraband for trans
mission. -The Hamburg-American compnny
has aeked the foreign office to tnltstta the
things necessary , to dear this disagree

. Russia Says Selre Will Stop, ,
- BT. PETERSBURG, July a.-l:50 p. s.
The Russian government has given forrr.al
assurances to Germany that there will b
no repetition of the Frlns Hclnrich, Inci
dent. , Whether this Includes a definite no
tification that the converted volunteer fleet
of steamers now In the Rd sea will ceae
stopping neutral vessels Is not yet clear,
although It Is believed the German em
bassy at this hour has received no In
structions from Germany regarding tha re
ported selsure of the German steamer
Scandla in the Red sea, and In view of the
assurances given to tha German govern
ment can ecarcely credit the report. Jl
Is pointed out, however, that the Scandla
may have been captured by the St. Peters
burg before th order of tha Russian
government were received. Groat Britain
formally raised tho question cf the war
status of the St Petersburg July 20 and
was formally assured that orders had been
issued to prevent the Red sea cruiser froia
seising any more British ships.
The Associated Press is able to announ- "
that Russia,' has informally notified Gr ,
Britain that orders have been laaued ts
tho Ruaslan crulaers in the Red sea not to
arrest any more merchantmen, and It has
been agreed between the two pov ers that
if, pending the receipt of these orders by
the captains of tbe St. Petersburg and
the Smolensk, any other ships should be
stopped and held aa prises the acts shall
be regarded as not having taken place and
the ships concerned at one released.
rm Release All Ships. '
While not admitting the Illegality of th
Russian action In converting vessels of th
volunteer fleet into warships after they luid.
reached the Red aea It is probabie. In view
of the fact that neutral ships did not re
ceive previous notico, that Russia, in orfl'-r
to remove the shadow of a cloud upon thet?
r'sht to fly the war flag, will formally bo.
tlfy the powers of. their conversion inti
warships, thus putting all iieutrals upon
th'jr guard. In tbe meantime all the si. I;.
seised will be released unless the captains
refuse to .show their manifesto, in which
event the procedure In ; the case of the
Malacca probably will be followed. ,
Gei many bad not made any protest
against the selsure of ths Scandla up to 4
o'clock tills afternoon.
