Romano, the prominent Catholic
newspaper In th Sternal City, while It has
a permanent heading cm the religious
"Persecution la France." haa now put
another permanent UUa Into use, "Th
Protest! of ths Catholic World." Among
tha protests mentioned In this way waa
the very Urge gathering recently held In
tha city of Naw Tork at the Hippodrome.
Among trther meeting mentioned by- tha
Osservatore Romano" may be mentioned
tha following-!
The Catholic, dtlsens of Washington. In
meeting assembled, under tha presidency
of Thomas J. Donovan, condemn the atti
tude of tha French government to tha
church and eipreee their respectful rym
pathy to the holy sea and to tha Cathollo
hierarchy of Roma.
Tha municipal council of Cork tendered.
In special session, their homage to tha sov
ereign pontiff and tha expression of their
sincere sympathy towards him on the oc
casion of the brutal agmeswlon which Is
carried en against tha Cathollo church In
Franca, and It condemns in the most en
ergetic manner tha work of tha French
government In persecuting the French
Catholics. Tha protest of the municipality
has been sent by the Most Rer. Dr. OCal-
laghaa. bishop of Cork, accompanied by a
letter of his own to the sovereign pootirr.
Tha Catholics cf Boston hare also en
tered an emphatic protest, and to this pro
test are appended tha names of the vener
able Archbishop Williams and of his able
con dint or. Archbishop O'OonneTl.
The Osservatore Romano comments oil
the fact that tha voice of Cardinal Gibbon
has been raised with suoh Torre and
strength against the Injustice of the French
government towards tha Catholic, and It
tins carried such weight with It that the
French ambassador at Washington felt tbe
necessity of notifying hi government of
the matter.
Another nrotest from Ireland Is recorded.
t I. ,. nf the 'munlclDel council of
Oueenstown and Is signed by Jamas M.
: Campbell, secretary. Tha council solemnly
"protests against tha violence dona by the
French government to tha archive of
tha nunciate at Paris and tha expulsion of

esting of Americsn protests is that from

tha protests. .
Meaalaar of F re see.
Tha late Dr. Lapponl. physician to tha
pope, had shortly before his death written
a letter on a fresco In Oubbio which was
deecrlped. as a representation of tha holy
hous of' Lore to. Dr. Lapponl oontended
that the fresco had for Its subject St.
Francis Asslsl casting himself among tha
thorns. Mr. Palocl-Puuguanl, who had
carefully studied tha picture In Its place
Lapponl had only seen Indifferent photo
graphs of Jt held It for tha Loreto subject.
Ths particular value of this picture to
tha world at large Is not In Its artistic
qualities, but In its date- Mgr. Falocl-Pu-llgnani
writes an elaborate description of
the fresco, which shows several scenes, one
of which, the most important, is that In
which angels, with their wings, are seen
walking snd bearing up In their hand a
. fcouse. And this house 1 prominent In t-b
., ether scenes. In one of which Is repre
sented as having a campanlls or belfry In
which are two bells, one abovs tha other.
A grand figure of the madonna, surrounded
by angels, is seen In -tha heavens abovs.
There Seems, Indeed, no reason to doubt
Mgr. PuUgananl' Interpretation of tha pic
tures; It is what everyone would read
from tha elements furnished by the fresco.
Tha data at which this work waa painted
Is of supreme importance. Mgr. PuUgananl
says ha hopes to prove that In the year
13 this picture was already known, but
ha cannot evidently determine how long It
was la existence before that data. Us Is
convinced that the translation represented
here is that In which tha house was borne
from Flumo to' Loreto it second transla
tion. Qifi Flada atatae.
Tha fragments of a status representing
g "dtsoobolos," or disc throws', were un
earthed last spring amidst the ruins of an
ancient Roman villa at Caste! PorU.no, one
i of the King of Italy's hunting grounda
What lends an unusual Interest to this
.discovery is tbe ' fact that according to
t popular rumor it wail Quean Helena, the
consort of King Victor Emanuel III, who
had tbe honor of finding ths treasure. The
royal pair were on their way to Castel
Porxiano and ths queen stopped to watch
ths excavators who were clearing out tbe
earth that filled and concealed tha ruins
.of as ancient villa. Tha king had left the
carriage and, mounting a horse, proceeded
In the direction of tha sea; tha queen re
mained watching tha diggers.
in a few minutes some white object was
brought to light. Quern Helens, "with a
leap sf Joy aad In a loud voice, waving
her arms In the meanwhile, called to the
kUig " He returned and ordered that the
' earth which wrapped up tha statue as It
ware with a mantle should be removed.
, Tba queen herself gave tha example work
tng In tha ruins with such eagerness that
shs soon had one hand scratched and
- bleeding. With her royal assistance the
torso of a discobolus was found.
It Is heedless and Its limbs are eii!trjd-
but soma of tba old world beauty of form
still clings to It. Fragments of It have
been found and these have been fitted to It.
but no restoration t of missing parts has
been attempted. The time that has eiapsed
since last spring has been employed In
fitting tha -fragments together. It Is now
to be given to tha National Museum of
" Rurue.
A new Journal and beaxiag the name of
Rom'' and edited fcr "Vox I rbU hat
appeared in the Eternal City. It la pub
lished la English and claims to be tha only
paper printed in English In tha Eternal
City which reflects tha mind of tha holy
tha groat questions af tba day.

DUBLIN. Feb. 1. (Special.) It la appar
ent that the government Is determined upon
Its course In creating a new college In
Dublin university, the chief reason being
urged that it wlU give an opportunity for
bringing together tbe youth of the country
during tha hours of study.
The government proposes to build ade
quate buildings, laboratories and scientific
srparatus. Use will, however, ba made of
the apparatus of the Royal College of
Science and In that way it Is thought so
large an expenditure of money will not
be required.
The new college will be entirely free from
any kind of a theological test. Its gov
ernors will be appointed In the first In
stance by the crown and thereafter partly
by the crown and partly by ths teaching
stair and tbe graduates.
According to the plan the Royal uni
versity at Dublin will be dissolved and the
University of Dublin will be turned into a
national university for Ireland, which will
Include Trinity college, Dublin, the new
college In Dublin and ths colleges In Bel
fast and Cork.
The proposals have been received with
mixed feelings at Belfast and. Indeed,
throughout Ulster. Leading clerical and
lay opinion, however, la Inclined to ths view
that tha new scheme Is feasible, although
It' is expected strong protests will be
mads against superseding tbe present sys
tem so far as It permits young men to
take their degrees while studying at home.
No little curiosity is being evinced ss to
bow the Roman Catholic bishops will finally
act In the matter of tha proposals.
Irish Uti Stock Trade.
William Field. M. P.. has Just delivered
a very interesting address before tbe com
mittee meeting of tbe Irish Cattle Traders
and Stock Onwers' association. During the
ouurss of his address hs supplied soms
figures which were very striking. A sum
mary of tha official statistics showed that
during ths year 100 Z2.6S7 sheep, M68 cattle
and LOU pigs were Imported every day into
the three kingdoms. Put In another form
this meant that every hour during the year
(48 sheep, lfl cattle and 41 pigs were landed
In Great Britain. These figures at once
gave soma idea of th tremndous foreign
competition which those interested In tba,
Irish cattle trade had to face. In addition.
Mexico waa now about to send in supplies.
Under present oondltlon Ireland could not
hop to suocaasfully eopa with such ever
growing competition. The first eaarntlal
Is estimating tba prioa which farmers
are expected to pay for their land and
tha resultant annuity account should be I
taken of this formidable and ever lncreas- j
lng competition. But this waa not all. If
tba Irish fanners are to live at all they must
consider how this crushing competition
can ba bast encountered. The foreigners
have great advantages. They have land,
either rent free or at a nominal figure.
Tha foreign trade Is In many cases bounty
fod. Against this the Irish farmers have
the advantage of proximity to th market.
If tha transit of this oountry were what It
ought to ba this advantage might count
handsomely In their favor. But under a
railway system which encourages ths for
eigner and discourages horns products, ths
advantage of proximity to ths market prac
tically disappears.

VIENNA, Feb. 1. (Special.) A fins herd
of eight magnificent chamois is tha gift of
tba emperor of Austria to the government
of New Zealand. Each of the beautiful
chestnut-eoated animals has a separata
wooden house to live In. In these tha
Journey from the Imperial private soolog
Ical gardens at Schonbrunn to Wellington

It was an eventful Journey for the ani
mals. First, they were snowed up In
Bwltserland for soms days. Then their
train caught fire. . Next Inspector Krauss
of tha Austrian emperor's soo was taken
ill and an under-keeper had to take them
in tow. Mr. A. K. L. Bert ling has had
them in charge for soma time.
"Itls a curious thing," said Mr. Bert
ling la an Interview, "that their favorite
food seems to ba tha mistletoe, of which
several bags have been sent. One of ths
buck will touch nothing else. I am taklna
them out to ths Southern Alps of New
Zealand, where they will ba turned loose
to breed. There la no reason why they
should not do well there."

RUSSIAN ARTIST ENDS LIFE
Daughter af Fernanda Devsyvd 'boats
He-reelf When he Csssst
Parage fsreer.
PARIS. Feb. 16. Special. ) A young
artist scarcely aged X years, whose father
was a theatrical celebrity and whose god
father ( was one of the crowned' beads of
Europe King Carlos of Portugal com
mltteti suicide In her royn In a little pen
sion de famiHe in Parts. The story of her
lle Is full of romance arid tragic adven
tures. Her name was Mile. Fernando De
voyed. She was a daughter of the famous
Russian baritone, Devoyed, and a cousin
of the well known actress, Mme. Susanna
Devoyed. Her father. It may be remem
bered, died suddenly some years ago at
St. Petersburg while singing Rigoletto
on the stage. She was then 17 years of
age, but, though her father had a brilliant
engagement and made fortunes with his
voice, he left his widow and eight children
In comparative poverty. Fernanda De
voyed came to Paris to study singing, and
was helped by her cousin and friends.
But she was often In great distress and
some time ago had wandered away from a
home In the country where shs was placed
and waa found shivering In the morning on
a bench In the boulevards, where shs had
spent the night. She was then banded
over to the Assistants Publlque, which se
cured her a small allowance. A woman
at her death also left her a legacy, but
her disappointment grew eut of the fact
that twice she failed la has examination
for admission to tba conservatoire. Though
she had a good voloa her constitution was
not strong enough for the lyrlo profes
sion. She finally realised this and grew
despondent.
Finally she dressed herself In white and
sat down to write a number of letters.
She then went to bed and apparently slept
for soma time, for one of the notes she
wrote was as follows: "It Is now half-past
1 o'clock. How well I hava slept! A little
more and I kill myself In the morning."
On another sheet of paper waa written:
"I have Just tried my revolver. I fired It
off under tbe blankets so that nobody
should hear. I did not manage It very
well, but bye-and-bye to kill myself I shall
use my two hands." About 8 o'clock ln'i
the morning as ths maid was carrying up
tea to the boarders a woman In the room
adjoining that of Mile, Devoyed called her
and said that she had heard a strange re
port In her neighbor's room. The door
was opened and tha young woman was
found dying. She had shot herself through
the heart, her hair was loose and her eyes
open. She smiled faintly as the persons
entered the room and a few minutes later
expired. The last note she had apparently
written was as follows: "I beg my friends
to arrange my hair well when I am laid
out. I want to look pretty In death. It
la cold now. I am shivering. I am fright
ened to feel so calm before setting out on
the great Journey."
HUNGARIAN WOMAN TALKS
Cassplalalaig af Hot Gettlag Pay,
Baraaess Sehoemberger Givas
Away State Secret.
BERLIN. Feb. 11 (Speclai.r-Ths. Baron
ess Schoanberger, the Hungarian beauty
who was said to be used by H: Polonrl. tha
Hungarian minister of Justloa, to spy on
Emperor Francis Joseph to find out his
views 'on Hungarian affairs, haa created
a great sensation by Interviews Vhlch she
has been giving to tbe continental news
papers. She claims t hava brought about tha
famous audience of M. Kossuth with ths
emperor ending' the constitutional struggle
between Hungarians and tha crown. She
says: "At this time I was as much at home
In the empercr's palace ss In my own
house. My real protector at court was th
lord chamberlain. Prince Liechtenstein, and
not Count Paar, whose name was given to
spare the chamberlain.'
The baroness declares that. In spite of
the great political service which shs ren
dered and the expenses to which she was
put, 'which nearly ruined her, ' the Hun
garian politicians never paid her the money
which they premised.
The baroness, when the newspapers spoke
slightingly of her personal charms, pre
sented herself at the offices of the various
publications and offered to allow the ed
itors t decide In person and declare to
their readers whether she was handsome
or not. All of the editors have apologised
la this respect except one belonging to
the elder "school of Journalism, and ha
privately made the remark that ha would
have been glad to apologise but that ba
waa afraid of his wife.
The baroness baa a varied past. After
being barmaid, actress and professional
beauty, she married Baron Schoenbergar,
a Hungarian, ex-officer, for his title, she
says. The baron, after being dismissed
from the army, partly a result of ber
escapades, became a cabman In Bddapest.
It Is feared that many complications be
tween the officials of Austria and Hungary
will follow a a result of some of the state
ments made by ths baroness.
SWEDE HASANEW AIRSHIP

STOCKHOLM, Feb. M- (Special.) A com
pany has . been formed at Gotsnborg to
float the invention of a new Swedish flying
machine by M. B. H. Wallln. director of
the maurlal testing: department of the
Chalmers Institute, who has been working
for two years at his discovsry.
Tbe Inventor states that the construction
of his slrshlp will cost less than H.0UQ, and
will therefore be much cheaper than those
machines which have been hitherto used
for experimental purposes, so that th
capital already subscribed is more thaa
adequate for tbe first triala The building
of the airship will take soma weeks, but
the work is making rapid progress.
A motor for driving th machine la ex
pected from Parts in a few days. la the
course, of ,'an interview M. Wallln ex
pressed himself aa very hopeful regarding
his invention. He said: "Ths problem of
aerial navigation can be solved quite as
easily as any other problem. It la only
remarkable that tne anuquatea system or
aerial navigation by balloon should hava
been adhered to so long."

The causa of the wreck was not of
ficially determined tonight. At the Grand
Central station there was Inclination - to
blame, the accident to spreading rails, but
later It was said that It was believed that
the sxle of the first passenger ooach broke.
Leonard B. Green of White Plains, who
occupied a reat In the smcker directly be
hind th second motor, told the story of
the train' approach to the Woodlawn
Curve road. It was traveling at terrific
peed, according to Mr. Green, though rail
road men estimated by th distance the
rvertumed car were carried that the train
was making between 40 and 10 miles an
hour.
"I remarked on the speed," said Mr.
Green, "when ws hit that curve and we
Instinctively stopped playing cards and
looked back. Suddenly ths car lurched to
one side. In a moment we broke loose
from ths rest of the train and we eould
see th rear ears turning over." '
Stories by other survivor " were similar.
Dismembered bodies were strung along for
a distance of 100 yards. One woman was
Impaled on a huge splinter from a railroad

A sheet of electrical flame that signalled
th disaster, enveloped the rear oar and for
a moment threatened to roast the victim
pinned In the derbls. The flame did not.
j however, spread and the horror of a holo
i caust was averted. As ths cars fed they
I smashed the third ran. breaking the eur-
rent and ending danger from this source.
In tha crash, however, there was death for
many, while practically every one In tbe
four coaches received Injuries of some sort.
Many were ground to piece and for hours
Identification waa almost hopeless. As the
cars went over many of the passengers
were thrown Into or through ths window
and out and mained.
Shortly after midnight Coroner Bchwaa
necker made a statement la which bs said:
"I have takes possession of on of th
rails and shall hold It for a technical ex
amination. In my preliminary Investiga
tion I found a defect In this rail, which
Indicated one of ths drive wheels of the

CRISIS IN FRENCH CABINET
DlflTereaeee Over Feres af Chareh
twatraets Will Probably tease
Fall af Mlalatry.
PARIS, Feb. 16. Just aa an agreement
recording terms upon which the churches
of France could be leasrd to the Catholic
clergy . was about to be reached between
representatives of M. Briand. minister of
education, and Cardinal Richards, arch
bishop of Paris an agreement involving a
ettlernent of the most acute phase of th
religious conflict- ministerial crisis ha
loomed up on Ihe horlsoo. snd It Is now
doub'ful whether Premier Clemenoeu's
cabinet will survive the coming week.
The premier left a sickbed today to at
tend a cabinet meeting. He Insisted that
the cabinet alone should not assume th
responsibility of authorising the form of
contract. The premier doubted that a
parliamentary majority would spprove
these contracts, and In any event he In
sisted that Parliament must be given sa
opportunity to express its opinion before
the government commits Itself. The pre
mier said he was fully aware of the plots
of the followers of M- Combes and other
groups, and as an old parliamentary
fighter he argued that It was better to se
cure the consent of Parliament In advance
than to run the risk of being outvoted
later. He declared also that he was rendy
himself to go Into the chamber Monday
and submit aft Interpellation on confidence
In the government. It Is understood that
M. Briand took sharp Issue with his chief
after the adjournment of the cabinet. It Is
declared that he Intends to submit his
views to his colleague snd that Tuesday
either he or M. Clemenoeati win resign.
The situation Is complicated by the fact
that the powerful financial Interests which
bitterly oppose the Income tax scheme would
Join eny combination to overthrow the pres
ent ministry, and that the clerical right
naturally would be overjoyed to dangle M-Clemenr-eau's
scalp at Its belt.
Extraneous Issues aside, however, a ma
jority of Parliament and a majority of
the country undoubtedly would support M.
Brland's conciliatory policy, and If M.
Clemeneeau falls either M. Briand or
former Premlor Rarrlen is considered most
likely to succeed him.
At a late hour tonight a semi-official
statement minimising the seriousness of
the situation waa given out. Put In spite of
this the beet Judges In parliamentary cir
cles consider a crisis Inevitable.
TESTIMONY IN ADAMS .CASE
State Oatllaea Its Theory and Mother
f Mardered Man Begins
Her Story.
WALLACE, Idaho, Feb. l.-Today Steve
Adams, charged with the murder of Fred
Tyler, the timber settler, faced a com
pleted Jury. The state has about eighteen
witnesses, while tbe defense is known to
have at least twsnty-two. The prosecu
tion's witnesses will, it Is stated, present
mainly circumstantial evidence, backed by
Adams' alleged confession of the murder.
Tha defense will, it Is expected, resist th
introduction of this confession on the
ground that Sheriff Sutherland used Im
proper means to obtain It and that If Adams
made any confession to Detective McPart
land It was made under duress and was
untrus.
The stat outlined Its theory f th mur
der of Fred Tyler at this morning's 'ses
sion of court. Attorney Knight, for the
state, told how they went into th new
Oountry near th St. Joseph river in the
spring of 1904 snd took up a timber claim;
how strife over the timber lands had arisen
among the settlers, some of whom had
banded themselves together to gain certain
ends; how at least one settler had been
warned to get out of the country.
About August 10, the state alleges, Tyler
went fishing, and on his way home stopped
at the home of a neighbor named Phillips.
After supper he started to his cabin and
was never seen again till his body was
found in the timber by surveyors, a bullet
bole In the back of the akull showing the
cause of death. The state ' proposed to
show that Adams was In that region until
a few days after the homicide and to In
troduce evidence of a confession secured
from Adams on different occasions without
the use of fore. This confession Mates
that on his way home from Phillips' housn
Tyler met Adams and two other armed
men; that they took him to a cabin and
kept him tbere .over night, urging him to
leave the oountry; that in the morning he
was given no breakfast, hut was taken to
the top of a hill and told to walk on
ahead and as he walked away Adams raised
his rifle and shot him dead.
Mrs. Thomas, mother of the murdered
man. was called as the first witness. She
testified aa to his taking the claim snd
as to the Identification of the body.

PREPARING FOR RAID ON TREASURY
Appropriation Bills lat red seed. It All
, Passed, Weald Carry the Total
Way Above the Hlghvrater
Mark.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Feb. 16. (.Special.) Th
1-cent passenger rate bill, which has been
made a special firder for 2:10 Tuesiiuy
afternoon, has boen the subject ol talk in
the hotel lobbies today and it is likely
a red hot debate will take place at that
session. The fuslonists are beginning to
get scared because the republicans sr
to caucus and they fear hey will r.o
longer be able to dig holes and shove ths
majority Into them, as It is believed at
tbe caucus an agreement will be made to
rush the party pledges through ahead of
anything, even though It be necessary to
sidetrack the 1-cent rat bill and lev
that matter entirely to the railway com
mission. Some of the republicans, how
ever, will fight this move until the last
cow dies, and It Is a serious question If
a majority of the republicans will stand
for It. It Is possible the republicans muy
get together on the Ned Brown amend
ment, though some believe It equivalent
to turning the matter ver to the com
mission. This little embarrassment, how
ever, ha had one good effect It seems,
for a number of the republican have be
gun to pay more attention to the mes
sage of Governor Sheldon than they did
at first, and some are beginning to realise
If they had listened to his recommenda
tions and paid heed to Ma speeches before
the election there would have been no
occasion for the present dilemma. Gov
ernor Sheldon emphatically stated In his
pre-election speeches that he did not favor
the passage of a flat l-cent rate bill, but
wanted that matter left so the state rail
way commission could adjust It, the same
aa freight rates. Governor Sheldon' belief,
spoken publicly, was that while some road
may not be able to stand the 1-cent rat
others may be able to sell tickets cheaper
than for I cents a mile. He wanted th
people to get the greatest amount of benefit
from ths change In rates, and he believed
the railroads would be abls to defeat a fiat
1-cent rate In the courts.
Regeats Weald Bay Books.
According to a semi-official statement,
the regents of the stats university are
anxious to buy text books and sell or rent
them to the students at cost. They are
also anxious to hold open meetings and
have Instructed their employes not to lobby
for or against any measure now pending
In the legislature affecting tha management
of the university.
This Information Is given . out by Fred
Abbott, a member of th board of regents. .
and he also said the board is anxious that
the legislature amend the present law re
lating to the temporary university fund
so there would be no doubt of the rights
of the regents to buy these text books and
sell them to the students at coat Mr. Ab
bott said tba reason ths regents had not
done this before was because tha present
law specifies the books shall be sold to th
students at cost and tbe board could not
figure out whether that meant th student
was to get the books at wholesale cost to
the board or should there be added to tha
wholesale price the cost of handling th
books. The board, so Mr. Abbott said, waa
more than anxious to save the students aa
much money aa possible, aa the members
realised that many poor boys and girls
attended tbe school and had to work their
way through. He Is anxious, however,
for th bill Introduced by Senator Ran-,
dell, which provides a penalty if th re
gents continue to violate the law regarding
the purchase and sale of text books, s
the regents will be allowed to rent th
books tu ths students, as that will aav
them mors money than selling then tbe
ibook.
.This chang of front on th part of th
board of regents has come only after ons
bill had been Introduced to compel then
to hold open meetings and after anotb
bill had been Introduced to foroe thm to
buy text books and sell them to tha stu
dents at cost. The latter Is now ths law of
the state, but there Is no penalty clause at
tached, so Senator Randall lias tacked on a
penalty of a flr.e of from 1100 to 1600 for
failure to enforce the law. As usual, ths
meeting held yesterday waa behind closed
doors, which fact inspired tbe men behind
the bills to bring the regents to Urns to get
Just a little busier.
MaBlmnaa Rata on Oil.
A bill will be introduced In th house soma
time during the early part of the week
fixing a maximum freight rat on olL This
bill Is the result of the Investigation of tho
Kansas oil proposition by a committee from
the legislature. This committee received
Information that the independent com
panies of Kansas would sell oil In Ne
braska for I cents a gallon and fuel oil
for Vm cents a gallon plus ths freight rats.
In Kansas there Is a maximum freight
rut lsw which makes oil corns cheap; con
sequently the Nebraska law will be pat
terned after that At this time It Is said
ths freight rate on oil ta Kansas for 2u0
or SOU miles la less then In Nebraska for
fifteen or twenty miles. Should the bill
be passsd tjid become a law the Kansas
shipper wlU send his oil to the state line
and then send it to ths first station on the
Nebraska side. Tbe big haul then will be
under ths low freight rats and the Inter,
stale commerce laws will be sidestepped.
Those workir.g on tha bill are Lieutenant
Governor Hopewell, Senator Bltley and
Representatives Quackenbuah and Con.
They expect u have It ready by Monday
or Tuesday.
Raid aa Treaeary.
Tha assaults on the state treasury are
coming thick and fast and th Indication

requested sill be voted. Up to this time

tallli.g for appropriations ' amounting to
