"Having published the foregoing facts to the civilized world nnd made known the causes which have driven the Macedonians to despair, the com mittee for the Macedonians now in arms proposes to continue the fight till the object of their uprising has been attained."

This train was promptly emptied, nnd the train which followed was ordered to push It to the repairing sheds. On the way those two trains caught fire, but the employees succeeded In escaping. Other trains ran Into the burning carriages, and the conductors told the passenger to escape as best they could. A panic ensued, lu which five persons are known to hnve been injured. The firemen nnd police, who were immedi ately sent for, took steps to restore or der nnd save the lives of the many pas sengers who were Imperiled, but ev erything combined to make the task ono of extraordinary difficulty, and It was midnight before they could even begin to fight the flames.

Governor of Philip. Iilnea, 31 ny Succeed lllm. WASHINGTON, Aug. 12. Before Secretary Root sails for London to sit with the Alnsknn commission he will pluee bis resignation in the hands of I'resiflent Roosevelt In order that the president may appoint a secretary of war if It is deemed necessary during Mr. Root's absence. It is expected, however, that the resignation will not be acted upon until after congress meets, 'i he appointment of Mr. Root's successor will depend somewhat upon the length of time that Secretary Root will be engaged upon the Alaskan boundary commission. It has been known for some time that Secretary Root intended to retire, but he did not wish to leave the department until the general staff bill was in oper ation nnd other matters pertaining to , the department were well under wnv. It Is understood that the matter of bis successor has been discussed, and. while nothing oftlclnl can be obtained, it is believed that the position will be tendered to Governor Taft. Secretury Root's desire to leave nub- 11c life is based largely on personal grounds. His family does not like the life in Washington, and the secretary desires also to return to his law prac tice in New lork city. The great Ques tions that were pending in the war de- , partment, reiutlng mainly to the ad- j ministration of the islands ncqulred from Spain and the establishment of n government in Cuba, have been settled during Secretary Roofs administration. 'J lie reorganisation of the army un der tho general staff Dlan is now under way, ond the secretary feels that he has accomplished the work thnt he was called on to do when he became secre tary of war.

The ceremony of the coronation of Tope Plus X. took pluee In the basilica of St. Peter's In the presence of the princes and high dignitaries of the church, diplomats nnd Roman nobles, nnd with all the solemnity and splendor associated with this, the most magnificent rite in the Roman Catholic church. As Cardinal Macchl, the dean of the cardlnul deacons, placed the triple crown on the bond of the venerable pontiff the throng of 70,000 persons gnthered within the cathedral burst into unrestrained acclamations, the choir Intoned a hymn of triumph and the bells of Rome rang out a joyful penl. The central figure in the long cortege wos Plus X. borne in the scdln gesta torln. His heavy white robes and the red and gold miter were worn without an effort, making a vivid contrast to those memornble occasions on which Tope Leo wore them, for Leo seemed always unable to support their weight. Over the pontiff's head a canopy was held by eight men, while the historic ostrich feather fans with peacock tips gavo a touch of bnrbarle splendor to western eyes. The scene presented on his mounting the throne formed a magnificent pic ture to which no pen could do Justice. The central figure was the venerable pontiff seated on the throne. Overhead was the most magnificent dome In the world, up to which floated the harmo ny of the music. Pope Plus was quite overcome and had scarcely strength left to Impart the apostolic benediction. Cardinals Macchl and Segna granted a plenary Indulgence to all present, and the pro cession then reformed and left the ba silica. A MISSING COUPLE. Snppoaed to Be Drowned la Canada Lake.

LYNCHING OUTRAGES. 'resident Commends Governor Dnr bln'a Action. OYSTER BAY, N. Y., Aug. 10.-rres-Ident Roosevelt hns written a letter to Governor Durbln of Indiana commend ing him for the attitude be assumed recently respecting lynching. The pres ident also embraces the opportunity to express his own views In referenco to lynching and mob violence generally, pointing out that mob violence Is mere ly one form of annrchy and that an archy is the forerunner of tyranny. The president vigorously urges that the penalty for that crime which most fre quently induces a resort to lynching dinll be applied swiftly and surely, but by due process of the courts, so that It may be demonstrated "that the law is adequate to deal with crime by freeing It from every vestige of technicality nnd delay." President Roosevelt's letter says In part: "The nation, like the individual, can uot commit a crime with impunity. If we are guilty of lawlessness and brutal violence, whether our guilt consists In active participation therein or in mere connivance and encouragement, we shall assuredly suffer later on because of what we have done. The corner stone of this republic, as of all free governments, is respect for and obedi ence to the law. Where we permit the law to be defied or evaded, whether by rich man or poor man, by black man or white, we are by Just so much weak ening the bonds of our civilisation and increasing the chances of its overthrow and of the substitution therefor of a system in which there shall be violent alternations of anarchy and tyranny."
