Interesting complicatlona have arisen it tlx Vatican. The chief symptom la that tha cardinal! are no longer Consulted, and that tha cardinal secretary of atata governs not only their heads, but over tha head of tha good and pious old pope. Leo XIII never failed to consult the cardinal on all Important question, and always listened to their vlewa with close -attention. Under tha Merry del Val recline, tha claim la made that tha cardinals, even those who con tributed most to the election of Plus X have been pushed aside. The opposition constats of three cate gories of cardinals. The extreme left, tha "Montagne" of this new movement, is recruited from the best, the cleverest, and tha most modern members of tha Sacred college. To 'this group belongs Cardinal Satolll, who has learnt much during his long aojourn in the United States; Cardinal Agllardl, - famous for bis wit; Cardinal Ferranta, , formerly nuncle to Paris; the aged but learned Cardinal Capecelatra, tha Impulsive Car dinal Vlncenso Vanutellt (the chief friend of Oermany In tha Sacred college), and tha French Cardinal Mathleu. In the group of the Moderates" are the Cardi nals Caasetta, Cavagnla, Cavtchlonl, Oen parl, Mlntlnelll, and Nocella, all ardent partisans and electors of Plus X. Tha third and last militant group, which con lines Itself to observation and mute criti cism, Is made up of men like Cardinal Oreglla, Macchl, Ootti, Eeraflno and Trlpepl. Rampella Is Wattlae-. And Cardinal RampotlaT ' Since tha advent of Pius X the 'secretary of state Of Leo Til, has withdrawn to his palace, reads tha words of 'i he fathers of the i church and waits, .'.' id since his recre ment Cardinal Rampolla's Influence with the Sacred college ha been steadily, grow Ing. Evea those who were formerly his enemies now see, how skilfully the "Bis marck of the Vatican" conducted tha af fairs of tha ' church, Y The veto against his election given by .Austria at tha last conclave la retarded as One of the greatest m!stak .er madabx lb&jroY.exQinent of 'Frana Josef. The claim Is no mUi .that hla supposed friendship f6r 'France would, never .have Induced so clever man aa. Cardinal Rampolla ..to enter. Into, a conflict with the triple alliance, , t It Is announced that, Blgnor Schneider, the architect of the Vatican, while tipping an n: chltrave of the sUir . leading; to the museums of the Vatican for tha purpose of restoration, ordered a workman to crape It - cautiously, considering that per haps under the surface there might be soma painting. . In fact, whilst the workman was craping away , tha whitewash, there gradually came to light colors, on their first apearanee faint blue and , afterwards mora vivid. A tha work of discovery proceeded there were valuable ornamental or deco rative paintings of ths fifteenth century revealed to the workmen. These were of tha Raphael school of painting. Among tha ornaments was a magnificent shield f Pep Leo X. Some 'of those who have bad an opportunity of seeing these works have coma, at first glance, to the opinion that' they 'may have been painted by Raphael himself, or at least by Glullo Romano, bla most prominent and prob ably his ablest disciple. The fact that these works of great art have been cov ered over suggests that this was dons Ither to conceal themr they were white washed during the prevalence of Infectious disease. . Christian Demeerata Active. Th conflict between the Vatican and tha moat advanced section of tha Catholics, known under the name of Christian demo crats, is becoming mora acuta, aa the pope kas Issued an encyclical especially directed against them, condemning, their movement, taetlcs and aspirations, and forbidding un der Hie gTavest penalties, all members of tha clergy from participating In that as societies;. The Vatican evidently believed this to be a master stroke, capable of annihilating tha young movement, but, an tha contrary. It haa found new, strength after having been so attacked. Naturally, tha clergy left the ranks, but the laymen gathered everywhere voting orders of the day from all parts of Italy, stating that whlla ready to bow to ecclesiastical au thorities In all questions relating to religion, tbey ' consider themselves sntlrely Inde pendent In political and social affairs.

Rocke feller 'and the bland rd Oil group of Ameri can millionaire had offered flOO.000,000 for certain canal concessions the truth Is be ginning to leak out so far as the' details of that transaction are concerned. It la true that Mr. Rockefeller and his associates of fered to loan the Russian government M0. a 0,000, and even more If necessary. i Ths Parla newspapers, however, made a mistake In saying that this wss for canal concessions. It was for control of the Baku Oil Melds In Bouth Russia Instead. The agents of the esar met Mr. Rockefeller dur ing his recent visit to France, t'p to the present lima arrangements have not been completed because his European agents Warned Mr. Rockefeller that in .the light of tha recent tremendous decreets tion in Russian bonds growing out of ths lack of Stability of th existing government the transaction could not he regarded as safe.

AMERICANS SHOW ECONOMY Kvea geitteh (emplala of the "ler aess" af Travelers la that GLASGOW. Sept. S.-(Speclnl Cablegram to The Bee.) Th 'return rush of Amer leans from the Highlands has begun. ready the shipping companies here an London sre st their wits' end to find ' neccmmodntlon for them all. The Qt Who came ovr this yesr Is said 4. f far exceeded any previous records, a though almost all the companies hnve t on additional ships since lsst yesr. It Is Impossible to comply with all the applica tions for berths of those who wish to re turn. The companies complsln that th tourists all Insist on going back at the same time. Whether they come in May or June or July, they all want to return ioim time between the middle of August and the end of September. The result le that all tha outward going boats now are over erowded, and that every available berth Is booked up for tha neit fonr weeks. Those who neglected to mske provision for their return Journey are now In a sad plight and many will have to remain urrtU tne rush esses off In October. Americans Dave not as yet learned thst Scotland Is at Ita best about the time thnt they sail for home, else, social snd .business affairs permitting, they would remain evea longer than they do. Another complaint this year appears to be against the Americans themselves. It certainly sounds singular, but the Scotch are complaining that Americans are frugal. And this from, a nstlon famous for what has been called "near." "It la quite sn understood thing among the elans of Americans now In London," said the manager of one of the large hotels, "to use our hotels only for a bed. and an address. Msny of them In fact, the majority do not even breakfast here, but take their first meal at a tea shop. A chief object with them appears to be to get our address on their bags. It Is the fraud of the label In nnother form." LOOKING FOR LOST TREASURE Glasgow Merehaats Back Ctasas Trying; to fleeare Gold from Saakea Ships. GLASGOW," Sept 8.-(Speelal Cablegram to The Be.)

Captain Burns of the British Msrine Salvage asso ciation, who Is In charge of the operations for the Glasgow merchants who have again embarked In the enterprise, would, It Is said, be well content If he obtained pos sesslon of the silver plate, the sacramental vessels and the ellver crucifixes, which were on board tha flagship '.of Admiral Oaapard da Susa. togsther with the Jewels attd golden crown, set with the choicest pearls.

On the other hand, during tha days of his cure he was greatly annoyed by be ing mobbed by a - curious, unmannerly crowd. One morning especially . may be men tioned when his majesty, accompanied by Sir Stanley Clarke and Major Pon aenby, walked from the Hotel Weimar at half-past seven to .drink a glass of Kreusbrunnen water. A large croyd was waiting - outside, and began to fol low his majesty, almost treading on his heels. Ths king, wishing to escape their at tentions. Bought refuge on a favorite bench In a bay off the promenade over looking the public gardens, but this only amd the .effect of Increasing the slse of the mob. The requests of the officials that they should not subject the king to Unpleasant attentions fell on deaf ears, and finally his majesty waa obliged to curtail Ms morning walk and return to the hotel.

Two girls named Vachero, aged IT and It years, have Just accom plished a daring feat of smuggling. They belong to a family whose ancestors have been smugglers for a century. Their hunting grounds are In the mountains where the . Swiss. Italian and . Austrian frontiers nearly touch at tha Stelvlo Pass. Many deae prate rights with the customs officials have taken place at this spot, until tha Vacheros have been almost wiped out There now remain of the family only tha , father and mother, and tha two da.uft-b.ters. who are tha heroines of this latest exploit. At present the father Is suffering from a rifle shot through tha elbow, which he describes aa aa "accident." He 'was un able to get a largo cargo of tobacco across the Swiss frontier Into Itsly and his daughters determined to ' smuggle ths contraband themselves, ' ' They started, but near the summit of the pass were discovered by two customs of- fit lala.

BERNHARDT T0HAVE CROSS r'reoeh ftoveraiaeat Will Graat Badge af Leglaa af Hoaar to Actress. PARIS, Sept I. (Special Cablegram to The Bee.) In spite of everything It ap pears ss though there Is every prospect of Miss Sarah Bernhardt obtaining the cross of the Legion of Honor at an early date. The cabinet has decided to pub lish the decree of the nomination In the "Journal Official" over the heads of ths council of the order. It Is a mistake to think that that body haa any power of veto on nominations by the government. According to the constitution of the order, the various ministers are bound to con ault the council of the Jrder before mak ing any nominations, but they aro in no wsy bound by Its decision. The council ran merely offer advice. In practice, how ever, an unfavorable decision by the council has been regarded as a veto on the appointment. This was inevitable. Thousanda of names are annually sub mitted to the various ministers. They cannot possibly know ' the claims and qualifications of every candidate. The names are .therefore passed on , to the council of the order, which makes an in vestigation and reports on the qualifica tions of the candidates. Nlrjety-nlne times out of 100 the reasons are not suffi cient and the minister accepts the de cision. The result hss been that the council haa ended by creating a little 1m perium In Inperlo and arrogated to Itself powers of veto which constitutionally it does not possess. It had only to make a "break" like that In regard to Mme. Bernhardt to bring up the whole ques tion. 1 FORESEES TROUBLE AHEAD Irish Jaaraal Thinks Chlaese on Ikthmas Will Be Political Issae la America. DUBLIN, Sept 8. (Special Cablegram to The Bee.) The Freeman'a Journal, . the leading paper of Ireland.' apprehends that the United States, like Great Britain, Is to have Its Chinese campaign. Says that paper editorially: "Mr. Shonts, the head of the Panama Canal Commission, it is stated, has con vinced President Roosevelt that the labor situation In the Isthmus of Panama de mands the introduction of Chinese coolies, and It Is added that an experimental baton of 3,600 are to be drafted for the work. The result Is, naturally, ' that an antl-Chlnesa labor campaign, such as that which haa taken place In England In respect of tha Trsnsvsal, is threatened throughout the United States. Mr. Bhonts, of course, has his excuse, for he says that the climate de mands Orientals; but the labor party ot the republic don't accept- It, and so thcrq will be a Chinese labor question at the next American election, as there wss at the last English jone. The Incident shows that however much the western republics msy endeavor to keep clear of the com plications of the old world, they, will al ways And It difficult t do so, and that however simple and logical the Monroe doctrine may seem to be on the fsce af It, It will, never be' a perfect and secure docu ment any more than any document of the kind haa been during the history af the modern world." ... - HOME FOR WORKING WOMEN I'amarrled Workers of ..

The unmarried occupants have bed and sitting rooms for four or five francs weekly. It Js proposed to organise an other and a larger Hotel des Demoiselle des Telephones later on. TALKING OF AN ALLIANCE Holland aad Belsrlana Consider Closer Relatione, hat "agaestcd Idea Is Dlfflralt. BRUSSELS, Sept 8. (Special Cablegram to Tha Bee.) The question of closer politi cal relations between Holland and Belgium Is ths echo of a similar discussion here, which created a more than passing Inter est It la however, generally felt that there are serious obstacles to any practical step toward a definite union, economic or military, bet wen the two count rtea Hol land Inclines to free trade; Belgium Is protectionist.' The most favored nation clause exists In most of the commercial treaties which Belgium hss made with! other countries, snd, until these are de nounced preferential trading with Holland Is Inadmissible. The military side of the question Istbeset with difficulties. Whlls admitting that It behooves smaller ststrs to follow ths ten dency of the larger powers to group them selves for their self-protection, It Is' doubt ful how far a coalition of the Dutch anj Belgian armlet would serve th purpose of self-defense ' olnt an Invasion by a power of the flm rank.

It Is a condition of affairs thst has af flicted a number of ether nawal vessels and alterations have been made in the ma chinery to obviate, the difficulty. It seems curious thst oil should get Into the boilers of a ship, and the explanation Is that the dynamo engines are responsible. These en gines are run the entire twenty-four hours of the -day and are lubricated by a spray of oil. This spray gets mixed with the steam that is sent into the condenser snd Is thus returned to the boilers, where It floats upon the top of the wster In s scum, which seriously Interferes with the msin engines of the ship.

ENGLISH EIGHT SETS THE PACE Ability to Get Away Quickly th Deter mining Faotor. CRIMSON CREW MAKtS PLUCKY FINISH All Are in Osod Condition, While Two Britons Are Exhausted. BANQUET FOR 0aRMEN IN EVENING Ambassador Reld and Captains of Both Crews Make Speeches . , Great Crowd Wltaessee the Race. PUTNET. Eng., Sept. 8 Today's boat rsce between crews rrom Harvard and Cambridge universities, which wss won by the Englishmen by two lengths, was probably the most surprising ever rowed on the Thames, not so much because of the result., but the way In which It was f on. Cambridge, as had been feared by Har vard and hoped for by Engilahmen, got away the better, securing a lesd which they Increased to three lengths before Hammersmith bridge was reached. ' Both crews, as-they went under the brldgo, were rowing steadily at twenty-eight strokes to the minute, neither apparently exerting Itself. Suddenly Harvard com menced to use more power, and although Cambridge already had the race won and had the advantage of water conditions, the latter was compelled to Increase tha stroke to thirty-three and finished a tired out crew. Donaldson was ready to col lapse and Close-Brookes tn the bow was nearly as bad, The remainder of the crew paddled the boat - to the landing stsge.' The Harvard men on the othor hand apparently were quite fresh and took their boat across the river at a brisk rate. ; English experts say there la but opa explanation for the result, that of super iority of English oarsmanship and of tha English stroke. Harvard had one of the . flnest crews physically, -ever, seen on the river, but was unable to overcome that training' which English oarsmen receive from childhood. The Cambridge .crew,' too, had In Stuart, one or the best strokes England has produced. It also had the advantage of choice of side, but thoso who- know the river best ssy this was little An their favor with the tide and wind 'as they 1 were today. Great Crowd! Sees Race. The crowd which lined the banks from Putnsy to Mortlake, massed on fridges.,' roofs 'and 'balconies and weighted down, the branches of trees was a record gath-' ring for recent years. ' To' estimate ths . number of persons who witnessed tha" Contest would be, (Impossible, but they stretched In unbroken . atrlnga for ' four andT one-half miles on slthsr aide of the river. Of ' Americana (here . Ware . hun- deeds,' all ahoWIng the ' Harvard colors,' chiefly in specially 'chartered bOata. The crimson, however, only showed in splashes amidst the endless display of the light blue of Cambridge. When the tight blues were' seen to have gained an advantage at the start a great cheer went up from the crowds on Putney bridge. In Fulham park and on the Putney towpat'h. It waa taken up by those further along and continued with Interruption to the end of tha lace, when there was a final tremendous out burst from the people on Barnes bridge,' the excursion, steamers anchored at the finish siid thousands upon thousands who had gathered at Mortlake. Stroke Stuart of the Cambridge crew, said: . "Fllley and his crew rowed . a magnificent race. We are glad we won, but sorry to defest such good fellows." Captain Fllley of the Harvard boat. locanlcally declared that his men had been beaten fairly and squarely. Cosch Wray was gloomy and had nothing to say ex cept that he had no excuse to offer. Coaoh ! Mattlebury of Cambridge said: "The Har Lvard men made up the beat crew ever sent out irom ine i niiea elates, witn another yesr and a little more of the English style the Harvard men will be dangerous rivals. I hope tha Americans will favor us with another visit" v t rews Dlae Toaether. The crews , dined together tonight at Prince's restaurant Colonel Wlllan, who rowed against Harvard In the Oxford four In 1808, presided, with Captain Fllley on his right and President Goldsmith, of the Csm- . bridge Boat club, on his left, and Ambsa.' aador Reld and other dlatlngulahed guests surrounding him. Colonel Wlllan pro posed ' the health of King Edward and President Roosevelt. Mr. Reld. In replying to the toast' to President Roosevelt, said that while he was not altogether contented with the result of todsy's race, ha waa. aure the president would be satisfied with the way Harvard had borne defeat. Ha promised the Cambridge crew a warm weL come In America should tbey decide to go over there for a return race. Colonel Wll lan proposed a. toaat to the crews. Captain Fllley, replying for the American oarsmen,, said: "There Is no question that the beat crew won. We have nothing to say to the cr trary. Had the race been rowed frqap Mortlake to Putney Instead of as It wag the reault would have been the same. I'm sorry we did not give them a better race." As the afternoon advsnced dense crowd gathered at th starting point snd stretch-, Ing along the river banks ss far aa the ey could reach, testifying to the fact that tha sporting Instincts of the British public had been aroused as they had seldom been arOussd Urfore. Tha thrur.g were wholly cosmopolitan and cheered with equal en thusiasm all appearances of the wearers of the crimson or of the blue. . t The breese freshened somewhat as the. time for starting the race approached and there was much eagerness to ascertain which crew was the winner of the toss for positions, ss It wss calculated that ,th choice of the Surrey aide of the river might give the lucky crew an advantage of as much aa a length. Crews Slay la Quarters. The crews themselves kept mostly to their respective headauartera at tha j Leander and London Rowing clubs, saving every ounce or power for the coming atruggle. The doubts as to the outcome were evidenced by the nervous anxiety of th aupporters of both sides among tha genersl public, but thoe in oloro touch with the two "eighths" remained calmly confident, satisfied that their charges were in the pink of condition and ready for a desperate struggle.
