Atlantic City, Aug. 4. The "embark
' ntlon day" reunion of the Knights of
Columbus came to an end tonight with
n banquet. There were 500 covers.
Prayer was offered by Rev. William
V. Cantwell, chaplain of the Mew Jer-
sey council. The orator of the evening
was William Michael Byrne, of Dela-
yare, whose topic was "Some Issues of
the Hour."
' Other sneakers were: Congressmen
I' John J. Gurdlner, of New Jersey, and
Henry IJurk, of Pennsylvania; IS. A.
Plillbin, ex-distrlct attorney of New
York; Thomas Harrison Cummlngs, na
tional organizer: George F. Monaghan,
of Detroit, Mich., and Frank Smith,
editor of the Pittsburg Catholic.
Previous to the banquet, the follow
ing cablegram was forwarded to Pope
Leo XIII, at Rome:
"Your spiritual children, Knights of
Columbus of America, In meeting as
sembled at Atlantic City, rejoicing in
the length of your pontificate, felici
tate your holiness on the memorable
. achievements of your auspicious reign,
and rejoice at the spirit of amity you
manifest for the American republic."
William Michael Byrne, United States
nttM-ney for Delaware, responded to the
toat V "Some Issues of the Hour." He
fiuvt )a vigorous discourse on the rela
tions of church and state In the Phllip-
plnes. Mr. Byrne spolce of the action
of the Knights of Columbus of Delu-
Iwarc. and throughout the country. In
t-J" . ., I . At 1
tlon of Catholic interests in certain re
cent publications, and held that as
Catholics demanded from Protestants
the strictest veracity In the printed
word, so they should in turn observe
these strict standards when treating of
topics affecting the conduct of their
Protestant fellow-countrymen. In open
ing his address, Mr. Byrne said:
"In the remarks I am about to make,
I wish it distinctly understood that I
In no way seek to obtain for them any
approval of any kind from the Knights
of Columbus ;is an organization, nor
do I make them as a Knight of Colum
bus, but simply and merely as an
American citizen, profoundly interested
In questions affecting my church and
country.
"I believe that no Catholic editor In
America would allow to appear In hla
"paper any statement of a fact as true
which he knew to be false. But this Is
not enough. T- scrupulously honest
man states a tri.iftc as a fact which he
does not know to be true and I regret
to observe that the statements appear
ing in tho Catholic press charging tho
government with proselyting in the
Philippines were made without that
care of investigation which the gravity
of the charge demanded."
Some Misstatements.
Mr. Byrne stuteuMhut It was not true
that Protestant clergymen were em
ployed as public school teachers In the
Philippines unci showed that there are
about 3,500 Catholic teachers In the
Philippine schools, in addition Catho
lic teachers lr'y give instruction In the
-Catholic v riwn In the school build
ings three days every week.
"Surely," said Mr. Byrne, "with our
Catholic teachers outnumbering the
Protestants thieo to one, with the
young Filipino already giounded In the
practices of the Catholic faith with an
adequate allowance of time to Catholic
priests to give these school children In
the school rooms Instruction In tho doc
trines of tho Catholic religion, it be
trays a somewhat conscious weakness
of our cause it wo frantically accuse
the government of systematic prosiey
tlsm because a small proportion of tho
teachers In tho Phlllr."lnca happen to
be Protestants. The constitution of the
United States prevents the government
from passing any law respecting tho
establishment of a tcliglon and the
spirit of that provision Is equally pre
ventive of any action by the govern
ment tending tochange a religion.
"No teacher or other person shall
teach or criticise the doctrine of any
church, religious sect or denomination,
or shall attempt to Influence the pupils
for or against any church or religious
sect In any publlo school established
under this act. If any teacher shall
Intentionally violate this section ho or
she shall, after due hearing, he dis
missed from tho publlo service,"
Having shown tho safety of Catholi
cism under, the scirol system In the
Philippines, Mr, Byrne proceeded to dis
cuss the transition of tho church there
from a stato aided institution to one
free, Independent and untrammelled.
'Much hus been said In. this country,"
continued Mr, Byrne, "about the Span
ish friars In the Philippines, but hap
pily tho American government has ex
pressly dlsclulmed any participation In
the accusations made against our re
ligious orders there.
America's Noble Example,
('Ujiiivn Kneland. unlike Spain, unlike
Mexico, unlike most every other coun
try dealing with the question of mon
astic possessions, the American gov
ernment proposes that the change de
manded by the times shall work no In
justice to the friars. The condition of
affairs In the Philippines demands that
the friars no longer be extensive land
loids. Their boundless acres ought to
be divided Into small homestead lots
for the benefit of the Filipino people
who would thus receive that Impulse
to industry and frugality arising from
Individual ownership of property. This
Is Identical in principle with the Irish
land problem. The Roman Catholic
bishops In Ireland unanimously demand
that the English government compel
the Irish landlords to sell their vast
estates to Irish peasants on fair terms,
and what American Catholic can com
plain If the American government vol
untarily does for the Catholic Filipino
what the Irjsh Catholic bishops de
mand shall be done by the English gov
ernment for the Irish peasants."

meeting of West Virginia conl oper
ators was held In this city today, look
ing toward what the operators term a
betterment of the conditions which

ing winter, and some of the operators
are authority for the statement that
the prices will advance within the next
few months, because of the great losses
which the companies have been obliged
to withstand In the way of strikes.
A matter which was considered, also,
was the shipment of coal to the Lake
Superior regions, the control of which
was consummated in Chicago and

SITUATION IN FRANCE
REGARDED AS GRAVE.
Cardinal Rampolla Still in Favor of
Temporizing with Government.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Ticm.
Rome, Aug. 4. The Vatican regards
the present situation In France, aris
ing from tho closing of unauthorized
congregatlonlst schools, as most gruve,
as It Is now believed to be tho Inten
tion of M, Combes, tho French prem
ier, to denounce the concordat. It Is
reported that Cardinal Rampolla, papal
secretary, Is still In favor of tempor
izing with France, fearing thut the hos
tile attitude of the Vatican toward that
country would lead to graver complica
tions. Some of the cnrdlnals advocate
an entire rupture with France, thus an
ticipating that republic and preventing
the passage there of further anti
clerical laws.
Chambery, France, Aug. 4. Crowds
made demonstrations In two neighbor
ing townships today against commis
saries of police who were closing up
schools conducted by nuns. The tocsin
was rung and the sisters who refused
to open their doors to the commissaries
wore cheered by the people. The po
lice were eventually obliged to make
breaches in the wnlls of the buildings,
whereupon the sisters, amid the cheers
of their sympathizers, left by the front
doors.

SENATOR HANNA HONORED.
Seven or Eight Hundred Employes
Present Him with a Cane.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Cleveland, Aug. 4. The seven or eight
hundred employes of the Cleveland City
Railway company, of which Senator
Hanna Is president, met In a down
town hall tonight and presented Sen
ator Hanna with a. valuable cane. In
acknowledging the gift, Senator Hanna
expressed his sincere thanks to his
employes for their gift, and Incident
ally spoke on the relations that ho
hopes soon to exist between capital and
labor. Concerning the anthracite strike,
Mr. Hanna said:
"When the great anthracite strike
was threatening the Civic Federation
worked hard for weeks to avert it, to
bring men and employers together, but
failed. After It was on, we worked hard
to stop it, but failed. It is my per
sonal satisfaction to know that the
statement made at the time thnt the
men would not go back on their word
has been kept and that a sympathetic
strike has been averted. I told the
federation that there would be no sym
pathetic strike among the bituminous
miners. I believe In manhood. Labor
organizations are not things which can
be sued for breach of contract. They
have no corporate existence, but I
would rather have the promise of a
laboring man, backed only by his sense
of honor and his manhood, than any
agreement which might be enforced by
law. Manhood and Integrity are the
same, whether they belong to a miner,
a street railway man or a boss. For
myself, I have no higher ambition
than to work for tho purpose of bring
ing capital and labor nearer together,
and to live out my life in Cleveland,
where I have lived for fifty-two years."
THE KING AT COWES.
Annual Regatta Opens Today Sy
barita's Sail Over.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Tress.
Cowes, Isle of Wight, Aug. 4. Re
gatta week opened with every prospect
for a record meeting, and only fine
weather is needed to insure the com
plete success of the Royal Yacht squad
ron's racing. The presence of the king
has caused an added Interest to be
taken In the event. There was much
speculation as to the performance of
the German emperor's Meteor III,,
which was to hoist her racing flag for
the first time in British waters.
The race for yachts of over seventy
nine feet proved a disappointment, the
Meteor and Waetjcn's Navahoe both
being scratched. The Sybarlta, owned
by Myles B. Kennedy, of Glasgow,
sailed over the course alone.
The king was on the deck of the Vic
toria and Albert all tho morning,
watching the yachts start. There arc
many big steam yachts in the roads,
Including Eugene Hlgglns' Varuna.

SUITS AGAINST
BEEF TRUST
Are Sent a Step Forward bu Flllno
ot the Demurrers buthe
Attorneus.
ARGUMENT ADVANCED
BY THE PACKERS
Effects of Filing Demurrers Is Tech
nically to Admit All Allegations
Charged in the Bill No Further
Steps Will Be Taken for Some Time
Hence.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Tress.
Chicago, Aug. 4. Tho go-..ilent
suit against the alleged beef trust wua
sent a step forward here today by the
filing In the United States circuit court
of demurrers of the defendants, both
as Individuals and as corporations. The
demurrers set up at considerable length
that the complaint on which an In
junction la asked Is Insufficient.
It Is maintained that the suit is mul
tifarious, and if allowed to stand would
tend to congest the business of the
courts. In specific terms the demur
rers assert that so much of the Mil of
complaint as asks a discovery "of the
several Interests of the defendants and
their business methods" has not stated
such a case as would entitle tho com
plaint to the rellpf prayed for.
The effect of the filing of the demur
rers Is technically to admit all the al
legations charged In tho bill ot com
plaint. The argument advanced in
support of the packers' position Is that
admitting the truth of the charge, no
sufficient ground has been shown for
the issuance of tho petitioned wilt. The
instrument was signed by John S. Mil
ler, counsel for all the packers.
If the demurrer is sustained by the
court, the original complaint may be
amended, and If overruled tho defend
ants have the privilege of argulns. It
Is not expected that any further steps
will be taken In the case by either side
until about October 1, when the fed
eral Judges return from their vaca
tions. GRAND, CIRCUIT RACES.

Twenty-nine More Injunctions.
By Exclusne Wire from The Avociated Tress.
Chicago, Aug. 4. Judge Chetlain to
day issued twenty-nine more injunc
tions, as a result of the legal battle
that is being waged over the recent
corner In July oats. At the request of
Waite, Thorburn & Co., the complain

nineteen bills were issued against the
Bank of Montreal, restraining Its offi
cers from paying over margins to as
many board of trade firms to whom the
complainants had made short sates of
July oats.
There Is a marked difference in the
nature of the petition on these bills,
however, from those first granted. The
petitions this time, Instead of alleging
conspiracy to corner July oats, stuto
that the margins can bo paid only by
the Illegal use of an authority inequit
able and unjust. Ten of the injunctions
issued toduy were at the complaint of
Pratt and Buckley and other board
firms. These latter Injunctions are
against Individual board firms to pre
vent them from collecting margins.
The amount of money Involved In the
Walte nnd Thorburn cases is about
$20,000; in the others about twice that
sum.

PRIEST ATTACKS
STRIKE LEADERS
Says Everybody Was Contented Until
Mitchell and His Assistants
Began Their Movement.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Tress.
Shenandoah, Aug, 4. At the 8 o'clock
mass on Sunday morning. Rev. Father
11. F. O'Reilly, pastor of the Catholic
Church of the Annunciation, delivered
an address on the strike, which was
tho talk of Shenandoah all day Sun
day and was tho theme of much com
ment today. This is whut he said:
It Is a law of God and of man that
every human being has a right to earn
enough to feed himself and his family.
If his children cry for In end, ho has the
light to get that bread honestly, and no
man living has a right to tell him ho
shall not. The man who interferes Is a
lawbreaker and an enemy to public good.
1 know that there aro men in my con
gregation who want to go to work. They
didn't want to quit work, but they would
go back tomonow If they did not fear for
their lives. J say this la wiong. You
should have the manhood to go back to
work and defy this organization known
as the United Mine Workers. It is a
blood-stained organization, and It will bo
blood-stained until It ceases to exist. It
was formed to piomoto crime arid pro
tect criminals.
Every one was happy and contented
hei o until Mitchell and Fahy came and
orgunlzed unions. They aro not respcet
able, and 1 wouldn't give two cents for
tho opinion of cither of them. They draw
big salaries and live on tlio best In the
country. Did any one ever hear of Pres
ident Mitchell or Fahy working? No;
but they live by preying on the paltry
earnings of you poor, deluded men, while
your unfortunate families are starving.
They tell me Fahy offered 130 union men
to tho sheriff to suppress disorder. The
sheriff was wiso lu refusing their help.
If ho had, God help U1I3 community. If
the mlno workers really wanted to show
that they favored peace, why didn't they
get out and capture the murderers of that
young man who was clubbed to death
before their eyes? 1 was away at Bed
ford Spiir.gs when it happened, but it
made me ashamed to say I camo from
Shenandoah.
I want to urgo you not to sign tho po
tion for tho withdrawal of tho troops.
Some misguided men aro signing It. I
for ono say tho troops aio needed hero.
If they are taken away, God only knows
haw many lives will bo sacrificed.
They are not against the strikers; they
aro here to protect them. I have seen
many strikes, my children, and I Hay to
you, even If won, tho cost Is too great.
You men who spend time lu loafing
around tho saloons during a ntrlko know
only half tho story. I. who go into tlio
homes of tho strlkeis, seo tho other side.
It's the women ami children who go hun
gry, who llvo In tenor of riot and blood
shed, who suffer most. You should cou
sldor them.

Shenandoah, Aug. 4. While the situ
ation In this region Is calm, the troopa
encamped here showed more activity
today than they have on any day
since they were ordered to Shenandoah,.
There was nothing on the suifucc to
Indicate anything, yet there wa3 a
feeling of uneasiness which caused tho
commanding officers to Increase their
vigilance and hold the soldiers In a
state of preparedness, The gi eater
part of this vigilance was due to the
fact that the funeral of Joseph Beddall,
who died as a result of injuries re
ceived in Wednesday night's riot, took
place today. Beddall was a brother of
Deputy Sherllf Thomas Beddall, who
was one of the principal figures In the
fight, and a nephew of Sheriff S. R.
Beddall. These men attended the fu
neral and In consequence theie were
many rumors alloat that they would be
attacked. These stories reached bri
gade headquarters, and General Gobln
decided to take every precaution pos
sible to prevent any untoward Inci
dents while the funeral was being held,
without too great a display of the mili
tary force. A platoon of the Gover
nor's troop was slutioned on one of tho
town's principal streets, near head
quarters and one battalion of Infantry;
of the Twelfth regiment was held In
readiness in camp to march on short
notice. Provost Marshal-ParrruhaT-atso''
kept a watchful eye on matters with a
detail ot men. ,
The funeral services were held at
William Penn, a mile from here. Then
the body was escorted by .the Shenan
doah lodge of the Masonic order to
Shenandoah, and through the principal
streets to the cemetery, which is locat
ed on a mountain north of the city. A
great ciowd lined the sidewalks, 'the
majority of the people being striking
mine workers. Nothing occurred to
disturb the funeral and after It was
over the platoon of cavalry was with
drawn from the town.
On Duty at Indian Ridge.
Company II of the Twelfth regiment
was placed on duty at Indian Rldgo
colliery of the Philadelphia and Read
ing Coal nnd Iron company, near the
foreign quaiters. This was done so that
ii town constable could be assisted In
case he was attacked while making
arrests of persons who were in la3t
week's riot. The services of tho sol
diets, however, were not needed. Ru
11101 s ot a resumption of work In this
terrltoiy air still In circulation, but
there Is nothing to Indicate that theso
ipports have uny foundation whatever.
There arc in the .Shenandoah district
nineteen collieries operated by the Phil
adelphia and Reading company, which
formerly employed IL',000 men and o!x
collieries owned by tho Lshlgh Valley
Coal and iron cotupany.whlch employed
3,000 mine workers. Besides these there
are seveial Individual collieries.
The mine Inspector fur this district
said today that where a coal company
desires to place a mini) In operation It
Is compelled by law in notify the mine
Inspector of the district lu which It is
located so that he can ninko an Inspec
tion, to see whether It Is safe to permit
men to cuter It. Up to this time, he
said, he had not lecelved tho slightest
Intimation that t.he companies are
about to resume work.
Pickets Patrolled in Vain,
By llxclusbc Wile from'J'lic Aiotijled Tress.
AVIlkes-Ilarre, Aug, 4. Tho striking
miners had hundreds of pickets sur
rounding the Woodward colliery of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
today, but no attempt was made to
start up the works. Sheriff Jacobs sent' .
a number of deputies to Duryea, think
ing there would be trouble there should'
an attempt be made to resume opera
tions at tho Warnko washery, but the
owners of the washery decided not to
start today, and tho sheriff's deputies
returned to this city,
