ROUE, June 8. (Special.) The storm In
the Italian press and Parliament about the
military honors rendered to Cardinal Lor
onaolll on his entry into Lurques as arch
bishop has been great deal like the pro
verblal storm In the teapot. Nerertheless
triers Is feeling that the Italian govern
ment . knew perfectly well what It was
about when It allowed the troops to pre
sent arms and the band to piay the
"Marcla reale." For It Is notorious that
Cardinal Lorenselll Is one of the leading
cardinals mentioned as a papal possi
bility and If ho ever wears the triple
tiara of St. Peter there will In all
probability be a complete reconciliation
between the Vatican and the qulrinaL Ills
eminence Is one of the few members of the
sacred college who Is convinced that the
recovery of the temporal power of the pope
would not be for the best for all concerned.
II Is even on record as saying that while
It might have the effect of strengthening
the position of the church right in Italy
itself It could not have the effect of
strengthening the church la Europe,
America and elsewtiere.
The days when In the hut of every
French and even In many of the huts cf
Italian peasants there hung a picture of
Plo Nono lying on straw In a dark dun
geon are over. The more narrow minded
section of the sacred college. It may be
possible, still refuses to accept the accom
plished fact of the passing of the tem
poral - power of the pope. But there are
many cardinals who belong to the broad
gauge group and to this group belongs
Cardinal Lorenselll. Then, of course, there
are a large number of cardinals wh oc
cupy a position between the two extreme
wings. The whole training of Cardinal
Loreiiiallt has been In the diplomatic ser
vice of the Vatican, and his experience as
auditor and nuncio In half a dosen cap
itals of Europe has broadened his mind.
There are even those who hold that If he

health had been good that It Is prob
able that the . separation of ehureh and
state Would never hare taken place. Un
der the peculiar circumstances his succes
sion by Mgr. Montagntnl, ' who, though
an extremely able man, was not fitted
for the diplomatic post has been regarded
as a great misfortune by those high up in
church circles.
Has Avoided relit leal labors.
Since his return to Rome and his eleva
tion to the rank of. cardinal Mgr. Loren
selll has taken little active part m Vatioan
politics. Like Cardinal Rampolla he la
said to be biding his time. In fact his
latest movement in accepting a blshoprto
away from Rome Is regarded as demon
strating his astuteness. He cannot be
drawn into Vatican politics. 'However, the
views of Cardinal Lorenselll must bare
been appreciated at the qulrtnal, and that
Is undoubtedly why military honors were
paid him on entering his diocese. Of
course the government will not admit that
he has received any unusual treatment.
By Italian law and custom a prince of the
church has the right to the same honors
and precedence as a prince of the blood.
It Is true that In Italy today the govern
ment has few opportunities of rendering
those honors, and when it does not suit
it can conveniently forget that the light
to them even exists. But technically they
do exist; therefore the Italian government
can In the case of Cardinal Lorenselll en
trench Itself behind rights and customs.
On the island of Kibe there lately died a
man named Melant, who, although a mill
ionaire, had for many years lived as a
guest In a peasant's family. He had. It
seems, completely lost bis memory and
had completely forgotten that he had ever
been rich. He lived as a poor man,' pas
sing his time in meditation and prayer, so
that the fishers of the Island regarded lilm
as a saint. M. Melanl bequeathed every
thing he had to his kind-hearted hosts.
who, as can easily be understood, were
surprised beyond measure when they
heard how rich their former guest had
been. At Ptstoja in Tuscany M. Melanl
owned a magnificent mansion which had
been kept closed since 1854. On opening
the house after the death of the owner
It was found that all the furniture and
artistic objects had disappeared, nobody
knows how or when. An only relative Is

The controversy which has been going
on for some time past regarding the tra
dition of the Holy House of Loreto has
recently been enriched by a new work.
This Is the description of a fresco In the
cloister of the ancient Franciscan convent
In the Interior of the city of Oubblo. The
work Is written by Mgr. M. Falocl Pul

MONTE CARLO. June 8. (Spec iie
latest thing In . syndicates Is a s pirate
of kings, which lias been gotten together
by the German emperor. The object of Its
formation was to present to the Prince of
Monaco his statue In recognition of his
service to science. It Is to be erected In
the Museum of Deep Sea Exploration,
erected by the prince of Monaco near Monte
Carlo. The money for this monument has
been raised by the kaiser and the other
sovereigns of Europe. The execution of
the monument was entrusted to M. Denys
Peuch, the celebrated French sculptor. It
represents Prince Albert on the bridge
of his yacht, his submarine glasses In his
hand, looking thoughtfully out Into the
distance.
The news that the kaiser has taken a
leading part In the erecting of thjs monu
ment has not given much pleasure In Ber
lin, where the prince of Monaco happens
not to be very popular. In political circles
It Is considered that the prince Is simply
an underpaid French ambassador, and that
he devotes his whole Influence with the
emperor (which happens to be considerable
whenever the kaiser happens to have a
feeling of loneliness) to furthering French
Interest. In church circles (which In Ber
lin means the entourge of the empress) tho
fashion in which the prince earns the
enormous revenues of which he disposes
are not approved, while tiie old Prussian
aristocracy Is inclined to look down upon
a prince who Is the sttpendary of the Bin no
family and the Boclete dea Bains do Mol
ds Monte Carlo. The latter harmless sound
ing name Is the official title of the com
pany which runs the gambling establish
ment. . v j

It is probable that the prince would
reply that It was not be who created the
present state of affairs, but that he suc
ceeded to It as a heritage. He might also
declare that people ' will gamble and that .
they had better, do lt at Monte Carlo,
where the honesty with which the tables
are run Is above -suspicion, than to do it
in a clandestine fashion ' In the . trtpots
Of to Riviera of' Ifclura'TOa swirifluel
that the prince icf. .Monaco .(b asked - to
make ,1st tho. name 'of morality la con
siderable. He draws revenues amounting
to several millions of francs a ysar from
the establishment of M. Blano, and with
out these gambling establishments the rev
enues of his tiny principality ' would be
nil. Then his subjects py no taxes, and
their morality Is looked after by their
being forbidden to enter Into the gambling
room exoept one day a year,' when they
(and they only on that day) are given tho
privilege of a flutter at the tables. The
gambling establishment Is, oS course, a
purely . speculative arrangement, run on
commercial lines, and run in such, a
fashion that It automatically extract some
thing like 16,000,000 annually frera the
pockets of the general public.
The prince of Monaco Is really a great
friend of the French government. Ha
perhaps considers this a wise policy, since
so many of his patrons come from Paris
or even though they may be foreign to
Paris and Monte Carlo nevertheless spend
several months of the year at the French
capital. At any rate It appears as though
he often act as an Intermediary with
other sovereigns, with whom his position
as . a reigning prince puts him socially
on a footing of equality. During the
Dreyfus case he acted as the Intermediary
between the kaiser and the French gov
ernment and furnished the latter with
proofs of the Innocence of Captain Dreyfua.

The prince Is perhaps the only nun In
all Europe who knows the truth cuncurn
Ing that extraordinary drama. Others
have had the advanlige ot sidelights only
and could only venture a guess. The prince
cf Monaco was In the thick and whs en
abled to take fair and a judicial view
of all these matters, affecting as they did
the French as well a the Germans, the
Hebrews and the anti-Hebrew. He 'was
the last person whom M. Felix Faure saw.
It wa half an hour after the prince cf
Monaco left the Ely see that Faure win

ried him off. The prince had Just returned
from Berlin and the communication which
he brought the president of the republic
In regard to the Dreyfus affair was u -h

Impossible to resist the demand for a re
vision. The president of the republic wns,
however, menaced by one of the anti-Drey,

the owner of a powerful newspaper, with
certain revelations of a scandalous nature

to make any move to have the sentence
of Captrln Dreyfus revised. These reve

but concerned a reletlve by marriage, but
all the same the scandal would have been
great ' It was ths terrible dilemma in
which he found himself that brought about
the second apopleptlc stroke to which he
succumbed. So bitter were the quarrels be

DUBLIN, June 8. (Special.) The Free

ment that the White House, the official
residence f the American presidents, wa.
the work of an Irish architect, James Ho

When only 22 years of ago, according to
that newspuper, ho won a medal from the

brackets, stairs, roof, etc," which Is now
In the possession of his grandson, Mr.
James Hoban, a resident of the United
States. The popular name of '.White
House," the Freeman's Journal says. Is
really due to Ilobun's thought' of painting
the crown-stone fronting the exterior wall
white, due to discoloration caused by smoke
and fire. The White House was built ac
cording to Hoban s designs and under his
supervision both before and after the de
struction of the newly created public build
ings of Washington by the British In 1814.
The White House was not completed until
1829 and Hoban lived until 1S31. According
to the same au.'iorlty four other Irishmen
were associated with Hoban in the con
struction of the building of which he was
the architect. Cornelius MacDermott Roe,
Patrick Roe and John Dclahunty had the
contract for the brick and stonework' and
John Kearney for the plasqerlng.

' BERLIN, June 8. (Special.) Because ' It
pleaded for "iho gradual organic disin

flrcated the entire edition of a book en
titled "Militarism and Antl-Mllltarism," by
Dr. Karl Llebkriecht, son of the founder
of modern social democracy, and one of
the most brilliant of the young fighters of
the party. The seisure is made on the
grounds of high treason and Dr. Lleb

afraid that he will siffer severely on the
same charge. Upon conviction for an of
fense like this he may . even be sentenced
to Imprisonment for life in a penitentiary.
Dr. Liebknecht, who Is a'successful lawyer
of Berlin, proposed in the book a systematic
campaign for rendering life in the army

it Is this which has rendered him so un

BOISE. Idaho, June 8. The cross-examination
of Harry Orchard, by his own con
fession the slayer .pt eighteen men ' by bul
let and bomb. Is likely to last through
Monday and Tuesday of next week, and
possibly longer. Orchard has now been on
the stand fourteen hours In . direct and
cross-examination, pt this the state bail
him lft hand for seven and a half hours.
In that time he told what appeared to bj
an Incredible story spread over the forty
one years of his life, the first thirty years
being merely commonplace, the story of a
poor Canadian farmer and, but, beginning
with th year' 1K95 he unfolded a career In
which, to use the .language of the leading
counsel for the state, "assassination was a
trade and murder a means of livelihood."
Orchard spared no Incident of his more
recent life under the questioning of the
state, that might prove to the Jury his
readiness to slaughter for low wage and
how Indifferent he had been as to the num
ber or condition of his victims. This story
brought out by counsel for the state was,
however, merely a synopsis of the play
whose acts cover the years since In
try act the climax sent a shudder through
a crowded court room. Under cross-examination
by E. F. Richardson, counsel for
W. D. Haywood, Orchard ha so far de
veloped this series of tragedies up to the
year 1904. Three more years and many
murders are yet to be analysed. For pur
poses of Its own, not so far revealed, the
defense Is determined that Orchard shall
retell his life story so that tho most dia
bolical or the most squalid detail may not
fall to be Impressed upon the minds of the
men who are to pass upon the question
whether W. D. Haywood is guilty of con
spiracy to murder, of hiring Orchard or
Steve Adams to "bump off" a governor,
slaughter a supreme Judge, or blow up a
mine or depot filled with nonunion men.
.Plan of Defense.
Slowly but surely the defense Is develop
ing the lines by which It hopes to break
down the story of Harry Orchard so far
as It affects Haywood, now on trial, and
Moyer or Pettlbone. who are yet to be tried
on the same charge. If It is possible to
heap further obloquy on the witness they
tiave done so by proving him capable of
prtty crime. By his own admission he Is
a )lgamlst, a thief, a liar and an Incen
dltay. He has played the traitor to his
employer. He has deserted two wives and
his children. All of these offenses he has
been forced to confess, but under a gruel
ling anamination by Richardson h has
stuck to his story and given chapter and

The Idea- that Mr. Harriman would bo

Tho news of Mr. Llnlnger's death wa

Slow to Abandon Hope.'
Mr. Llnlnger's fatal Illness had been
brief, but his condition wa unfit for th
last attack, a he had never fully regained
normal strength since his tckness last
winter. But the venerable man made a
herole .fight and did not falter In hi sturdy
hope of success over, an enemy even as In
sidious a death Itself until he wa con
vinced that It wa hoping against hop
and a will which he obeyed above hi own.
Mr. Llnlnger wa upon the streets as Int
a Wednesday. On that day he left hi
sick room and went to the session of the
grand lodge of Masons at Masonlo tempi
to make what he did not know then wa
hi last appeal for that object of hi great
est affection, the Home for Masons at
Plsttsmouth. He wanted an appropriation
of $20,000 for the home, and he gotIt H
was scarcely able to be In the lodge room,
much less able to make the appeal he did.
But here was an Institution which and
whose work lay too close to his great,
tender heart for him to oonslder any feel
ing personal to himself. When he entered
upon his mission. of seeking th appropria
tion he did not have the unanimous sup
port of his brother Masons, but his way
of thinking, as usual, was taken finally
as the right way. The $20,000 was granted
and Mr. Llnlnger went home to 11 down
and die, his grand, glorious career con
summated by a deed of charity for other,
an end In consonance with hi ntlr life.
Tuesday Mr. Llnlnger had attended th
Veteran Masonic association's session and
had shared In Its deliberations.
