The Herald, 1906-08-24, Page 6BISHOP'S REPLY TO THE POPE. 318ANIMOUSLY APPROVED TERMS OF HIS ENCYCLICAL. fidelity to the Pontiff—Test of His . Holiness' Instructions Claiming Supreme Authority of Affairs of the e. Church. E, Roane, Aug. 20. --The Osservatore Ro- barno 'publishes to -day the reply of the. trench bishops, unanimously approving e terms of the Poe's encyclical gainst the separation of Church and hate. In reply the bishops give thanks o God that they have been able to diold plena'-- assembly while for a century ast an unjust contract refused them .his right. The reply declares that the French iishops were unanimous on all questions if patriotism and faith, and that the will of the Holy Father will always be 'heir last word. The bishops thank the ?ope for having authorized them to 4eliberate on questions whieh His Holi- j:ess.alone is able to settle. They affirm that they sacrificed at once, at his word, personal ideas which they might have pressed. The reply glorifies the encyclical as i monument of divine and human wis- lom. It compares the condition of the ithful in France with that of the ebrews returning to Jerusalem after eir long captivity, and affirms the pvish of the bishops to re-establish rerusalem and its temple on the invita- tion of the Pontiff at whatever sacri- fice. The reply approves all the condemna- ions pronounced by the encyclical, and veighs against what is called the crim- audacity of a power which, wishing to tear up a contract made with the Munch, does so without putting herself to communication with the head of e Church. It also condemns sacrile- ious usurpation of ecclesiastical pro- perties. 'In conclusion, the reply reaffirms the idelity of the Catholics of France to their faith and their resolution to obey he Holy Father. As soon, it says, as the French democracy sees things in their true light it will rise as one body in the faith of 'Christ and the love of the Pope. "That is why we demand the right," says the reply, "to preserve for France ell the privileges of her protectorate over Catholic interests in the Orient." Causes Confusion. 1 Paris, Aug. 20.—The Pope's encyclical receives widespread attention. While the general attitude of the hierarchy is fav- orable, a considerable element among the clergy receives the decision of the Pontiff with disappointment and regret as being likely to inaugurate an. era of religious Strife. The decision causes serious confusion with regard to the practical parrying on of churches. The new law lays down specific conditions concerning the organization of clerical associations, but the Pope's deoision appears to make tit, impossible for the clergy to conform l,o e law. The view generally prevails that the Vatican seeks to create a situation com- pelling the Government to enter into negotiations for some form of church organization that will be acceptable both to the Church and to the State. However, there is no indication of the Government's willingness to move in that direction. TO EJECT SQUATTERS. GOVERNMENT ACTION TO PROTECT THE DOUKHOBOR•S. Lands Abandoned. Temporarily or Per- manently by the Doukhobors Will Not Be Allowed to be Gobbled Up by Other People—Notices Being Served. Borden, Sask., Aug. 20.—A climax has been reached in the trouble be- tween the squatters on the Doukhobor reserves near here and Spirit Wrestlers, who have practically forsaken the land Ito join communities, temporarily er oth- erwise, and to work on railway construc- tion. Trouble has been brewing for 19 months and in the meantime the squat- ters have broken considerable areas and isown crops, which the Doukhobors have threatened to return and reap. It has culminated now in an order by 'the Northwest Mounted Police, acting presumably under Government instruc- ltions, to the squatters to vacate the and or be ejected. They have not yet decided to peacefully acquiesce, and le- gal proceedings may be instituted, They claim that the homestead law Chas been violated by the Doukhobors and i'will demand that the entries be cancelled on their lands, as they would be on those of any other settlers who do not com- ply with the regulations fully. VISITS MARS IN TRANCE. Syracuse Man Describes People He There. Syracuse, Aug. 20.—Sackville G. Yey- ,son, of this city, who has' been a stu- dent of the occult, says that he recently 'ho a trip to Mars while in a trance, sand says he is ready to do the same tiling again before an army of scientists. He leaves his body behind, and only his Spirit goes through space. In deseribing :two wonderful races of men he found in Mars, he says: "One race was so large that 1 only came to their knees, while another only came to my knees. None wore elotliing. They continue to treat MO as if 1 I and all ware covered with hair. The Leo XIII," Saw large species had huge ears, a nose like a lion, and only one eye in the middle of the forehead. The little men had web feet, and lived in holes in the ground, while the large ones lived in houses built of rock. The little ones could walk up perpendicular walls, as if they were flies. They had no nose, but there was a hole in each cheek. Everything seemed to be made in a. serpentine form, even the roads. Through the equatorial bent of the planet was a wide belt of water, probably nine miles morose. Some of the animals were green. 1 saw many of the big men working with a big machine, which east light on to transparent rocks, reflecting it far into space and nearly to the atmosphere of the earth. When I approached Mars it looked like a ball of fire." NEGOTIATING BOUNDARY. Framing Modus Vivendi Respecting Lab- rador Frontier. St. John's, Nfld., Aug. 20.—The New- foundland and .Canadian cover nments now are negotiating di respecting the Labrador boundary which will enable the lumbering interests op- erating on Hamilton Inlet to continue working pending a seti ement delimit- ing the territory involved in the die; pute, recent developments of which have tended,, to alarm capitalists con- templating mining and other invest- ments in the region affected. TREATY VIOLATED. ED. BROWNE RELEASED FROM SING SING BY JUDGE. He Was Extradited From Canada—Lib- erated Because He Was Seized for Different Offence to That He Was Extradited For. :view York, Aug. 20.—Charles C. Browne, formerly an examiner of silks in the Government Customs service in this city, was ordered released from Sing Sing prison by Judge Hough, of the United States Court, to -day, on a i= rat of habeas Corpus. Brown was recently brought back from Canada, where he had fled after giving bail and was tarn direct to prison. His counsel claimed this was in violation of the extradition treaty between the United. States and Canada. Charles C. Browne was convicted in March, 1004, of having conspired to defraud the Government by pin- ing silks at under -rated values snd sentenced to serve two years in Sing Sing Prison. He took an appeal to the United. State Circuit Court of Appeals and lost. He then jumped his bail of $12,500 and fled to Canada. Tho Canadian Government refuse& ex- tradition on the conspiracy charge, but extradited Browne on an amended charge of being a fugitive from jus- tice. A Secret Service Agent started with Browne for New York from Mon- treal on July 26 last. His attorneys expected that he would be brought to New York, but United States Marshal Henkel met them at Poughkeepsie and -took the prisoner direct to Sing Sing Prison. Counsel for Browne contended that he was practically kidnepped. In his opinion discharging Browne from custody to -day, Judge Hough de- clared that there is no authority vested in the United States Government to seize or hold a person extradited in pursuance of treaty provisions, except upon the charge of what the extradi- tion was granted. DOWN SLUICE BOX. THRILLING EXPERIENCE OF WO- MAN IN BRITISH COLUMBIA. TO REAP HARVEST. FARM HANDS FROM ENGLAND AR- RIVE IN WEST TO HELP.. Nay Become Settlers—Over 5,000 Har- vest Hands From Various Eastern Sections Have Arrived at Winnipeg. Winnipeg, Man,, Aug. 20.—Brought 5-, 000 miles to assist in the harvest, 500 *English farm hands arrived in the city to -day from ,Montreal. The English harvesters arriving are the first work- men brought directly from Great Brit- ain for the express purpose of asist- ing in harvesting operations in this country, •Imet it is undoubted that the experimentirtried for the firet time this season will be repeated from year to year, and that farm hands will be brought out regularly from the Mother- land to .aid the western agriculturists in securing the annual wheat crop of the country. The work done during a single harvest season by the men :brought out from Great Britain would hardly com- pensate for the intrinsic .expense of bringing them to Canada from Great Britain. It is believed, however, that a very large proportion of these agricul- turists will settle on the vacant lands of the new Provinces, and that the annual movement of workmen to the Dominion at the harvest will tend to stimulate a general movement of the agricultural classes to Canada. They to -morrow will be scattered over every part of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, The new- farm; hands are from almost every shire in England. The distribu- tion of the Maritime harvesters over Manitoba has been practically com- pleted, extra coaches being added to all the western trains of the C. P. R. and C. N. R. systems. over 1,500 men leav- ing the city in. this manner during the day. Such as remain will no doubt ticket to points near Winnipeg. In all 5,000 harvest hands have gone out over the country. Quite a number of hands are leaving the oity en route to the grain -fields by way of the C. N. R. One hun- 'd•red and twenty-five men were taken on the Miami branch and several are leav- ing for the west by every westbound train. Additio-nal coaches are being added to every train, and nearly 500 in all shave already gone out on the C. N. R. Extra. coachesare being held in readi- ness, and the traffic department is pre- pared to ship out the harvest hands as fast as they come. The excursion from western Ontario will reach Winnipeg on Thursday night and Friday morning if the usual time is made. Was With Her Husband in the Far- away Skeena District—She is Alive to Tell the Story of Her Adventure. Vancouver, 13. C., Aug. 20.—Carried by swiftly rushing water down a sluice box and then thrown onto the ore dump with sufficient force to fracture ane leg and sustain several bad: bruises, was the unhappy experience of Mrs. H. Mc- Arthur, who journeyed into the wvileis of northern British- Columbia in' order to be near her husband while he toiled on his mining property on Lorne Creek, in the far -away Skeena, River district. But Mrs. McArthur does not repine, she is thankful to be alive and to be able to take an interest in outdoor British !Columbia, even though it is only from the windows of the hospital at Hazelton, to which she was taken as quickly as possible. It was fortunate for the courageous woman that when she fell into the sluice -box she did so with her head down stream, otherwise she would certainly have been killed by being smashed against the boulders which, are washed away in that :mining device. The accident took place close to where the monitor was working, so she got the fall force of the water to carry her swiftly away. +o LACK ORIGINALITY.. Pope's Criticism of Press Accounts of His Health, SHIPS LOCATED. TuZzsa -: ,EET-....-DES•TRGVEn EIGHTY YEARS AGO.

New York, Aug. 20.—A cable to the Sun from Rome says: Some time ago the Sun announced the departure of skilled divers from Leghorn for Greece with the double object of getting at the Turkish vessels that were sunk by Ad- miral Cadrington in 1827 in the Bay of Nararino, and recovering snore of the bronzes from the sea near Anticythera, where the statue of the !beautitu "Youth of Antieythera," now in the National Museum at Athens, was found a few years ago. The chief of the divers has returned and reports that sixteen out of the seventy-two sunken Turkish ships are visible at a depth of 125 feet, but as there is thirteen feet of sand in them special machinery will be required. In the Channel of Anticythera the divers found at a depth of 164 feet the ruins of an ancient galley, which was conveying bronzes. The galley is 160 feet long and 33 feet wide . It is now a mere hulk, filled with five feet of sand. The precise epoch of the galley was slot ascertained, put some of the de- tails of its construction are unique in the history of ancient shipbuilding. Eleven amphorae of the Roman period have been :brought" up. The divers will continue their work when the machin- ery is ready and the winter gales are over. Meenwhi1e the chief diver will !be oo- eupiecl in trying to salve the Italian steamer Sirio, sunk off. Cape Palos, Spain. STABBED AND MLLE HIS CHUM BECAUSE It COURTED 13 iS SISTERS Youth Would Not Cease His Attentions and He Was Murdered. Perry, Aug. 20.—idgnelas Wadasick, employed in the Perry Knitting Com- pany's yarn mull, was stabbed and in- stantly killed by John Wyzykowski, of Buffalo, a few minutes before 12 o'clock last night. Wadasick had forced bis attentions on Wyzykowski's sister, and after repeatedly warning the young mill hand to keep away from the girl, Wyzykowski killed him. The murder- er's sister is in Buffalo and the police ars trying to locate her. Wadasick was 23 years old and had worked in Perry about two years. Sev- eral months ago Wyzykowski secured a job with the knitting company and went to work in the yarn mill. His sis- ter, who is 19 years old, frequently came out from Buffalo to visit him and Wadasick made her acquaintance, Wyzykowski and Wadasiek had been quite friendly up to that time, but when the attentions of Egnedas became noticeable he told the young man to keep away from his sister. Wadasiek refused and the two men had frequent quarrels. The fight last night which resulted in the murder oc- curred ccurred in front of the mill. It was said the men had engaged in a fist fight earlier in: the evening and Wyzykowski had threatened to kill Wadasiek. Later when they were on their way home* from one of . the hotels along Main street they met in front of the mill. The fight was renewed and Wyzy- kowski drew a knife. Wadasick tried to get possession of the weapon, but he was. unsuccessful. Wyzykowski plunged the blade of the knife several times into Wadasick's abdomen, and as the young pian fell to the sidewalk he stabbed hien once through the heart. Several men who had heard the shouts of the two fighters ran. up and grabbed Wyzykowski. 1\Todasick lay in a pool of blood on the sidewalk, dead. Chief of Police Butler, who was sum- moned, soon arrived, and he placed Wyzykowski under arrest. The prisoner was locked tip in the town jail. Coroner Broughton, of Castile, was no- tified of the murder, and after he had viewed the body of Wadasick he ordered it taken to an undertaking room. An inquest will be held this afternoon. FUNDOO CONFESSES ON IIiS DEATH -BED That He Stole His Employer's Jewels—Found Where He Hid Them, St. Louis, .Aug. 20.—Acting under in- structions cabled from England, John P. O'Brien, a laborer employed in the wrecking of the world's fair buildings, has unearthed an alligator bag contain- ing jewels valued at $50,000, which were stolen from Mr. and Mrs. P. Henry Clay- ton, of Devonshire, England, during a visit to the Louisiana Purchase Exposi- tion two years ago. The jewels were stolen from a trunk, and tbey were not missed until the Clay - tons had returned to England, after a tour around the world.

Man Sick With Fever Cuts Throat of Companion. Corwin%,, Spain, Ang. 20.—A. man who with two friends was occupying a room at the Hotel Continental here last night on the way to America became sudden- ly insane and cut the throet of one of his sleeping companions. This morning he had no recollection of what he had done. Tho man's name is Pedro Larrazete and with Vincente Peruyeras and Justo Barge, who is a Cuban; he took a room in the hotel. During the night Lar- razate became ill and a high fever set in which brought on a delirium. He crept to the bed of Peruyeras, who was sleeping souudly, cut the man's throat. Peruyeras crawled down stairs and in a few moments died. Berge awoke and found Larrazate standing over liim with an upraised knife in his hand. He limped from the bed and shouted. The ��hne r' nn pursued him and plunged a `p- hoe his left arra. was •arrested, but asserts "et be remembers nothing of what he did. employ during their trip, was fatally in- jured by an elephant in India, and upon his deathbed confessed that he stole the jewels while in St. Louis. He said that he had become alarmed and fearing detection had hidden them in a hole in the wall of the manufacturers' building. Later he again wished to se- cure the gems, but on returning to the place he had secreted them, could not reach the bottom of the space between the plaster and the side of the building. Fearing to make any inquiries or ask as- sistance, the Hindoo departed from St. Louis with the Claytons, leaving the jew- els in their hiding place. O'Brien was generously rewarded and was also employed by Mr.- Clayton as his personal attendant. INDIAN TROUBLES. NORTHERN TRIBES SUSPICIOUS OF THE GOVERNMENT. Mgr: Pascal, of Prince Albert, Who Possesses the Confidence of the Red Men, May Accompany the Govern- ment Expedition. Prince Albert, Seek., Aug. 20.—It is probable that Mgr. Pascal will go north with the Dominion Government expedi- tion, which leaves here this week to treat with the Indians outside the treaty limits in the northern portions of Sas- katchewan and Alberta. There is much hostility among the Indians to the nego- tiation of a treaty, according to reports which are brought down by mounted policemen and others. The tribes have conceived the idea, how it is difficult to say, that the Government desires to take away forcibly the land which they look upon as theirs, and impress them as soldiers. Two men have their confidence, and with the help of these there is no doubt that a treaty could be concluded with- out much trouble. They are Bishop Pascal and Father Rapet, the veteran missionary at Isle a la Crosse. Mgr. Pascal spent twenty years in the coun- try whieh will be visited by the expedi- tion. WAS SHAH FORCED ? PERSIAN REFORMS FOLLOWED SEVERE FIGHTING. St. Petersburg, Aug. 20.—In addition to the details of the sweeping changes of regime presented by the Reform party in Persia and to which the Shah has given his tentative consent, as announced last night, which came directly from the correspondent of the Associated. Press at Teheran, another telegram received to- day says the Shah's action was preceded by fighting of a revolutionary character, during which many persons were killed by the troops. The correspondent evi- dently was prevented by a censor from telegraphing the partieulars. ey8 KILLED BY LIGHTNING. Alex. Greenhouse Receives a Fatal Shock at Abernethy, Sask.

Obstructions of That Kind Should Be Marked Jury Regrets That None of the Victims Had Been Able to Swim. Winnipeg, Aug. 20. --Great interest centres on the coroner's investigation of Saturday's disaster on the Red River, in which five lives were lost. It was known to be due to a strict su pile aban- doned illegally by the Sprague 1,eunber Company. Many attended the examina- tion last night. The President of the lumber company admitted that the com- pany left the pile in the river. The verdict rendered a midnight says: "We the coroner's jury empanelled to investigate the cause of the deaths of Ethel Brown. Myrtle Brown, Ernest Brown, Ruby Thomsen, and May Whyte, hereby find that the motor boat in which the said parties were riding struck some object, which was invisible, and which caused the wreck. We believe the said object to have been a station- ary pile. We find that a considerable number of piles have been driven in the river for lumbering purposes, and that hi some cases they are unmarked and form a serious menace to the navigation of the said stream, We believe the parties responsible for the care and maintenance of the said piling to have been negligent in not marking these ob- structions in a manner sufficient to warn boats navigating the river of their location. "We consider it unfortunate that none of the young people who met their death seems to have had .any knowl- edge of the art of swimming, and in that connection would draw the atten- tion of this city to the importance of acquiring this knowledge. We also re- commend that -all pleasure boats be com- pelled to carry sufficient life belts to supply the passengers carried, in case of an accident, and also that immediate steps be taken by the proper authori- ties to at once remove or properly mark all dangerous obstructions to navigation in the Red and Assiniboia Rivers ad- jaeent to the city of Winnipeg." Heavy damage suits will follow. e'en GENERAL POLE.CAREW. South African Fighter Retired With Hon- orary Rank of Lieut. -General.
