President'* Ruling Regarding Foreman Miller Practically Makes Government Printing Office a Nonunion Establishment.The history of this young Indian priest is Interesting.

During the mass three men were arrested for crying, "Down with the Pope." Smoke and Chew A Blow to Union Labor. head. Officers Used as Shields. CONCILIATORS CANNOT AGREE, Aside from the immediate interest aroused in the matter by Miller's reinstatement the members of the various organizations represented say they realize that there Is a broader aspect to the whole ease. They feel that the president's ruling in Miller's case practically makes the government printing office an "open" shop. In which men or women may be employed whether members of any union or not. The officers were outnumbered and were soon relieved of their arms. Then, using the officials as shields, the prisoners started for the armory, on the outskirts of the penitentiary grounds. They passed a Gatling gun on one of the walls, but the guards were afraid to shoot at the convicts for fear of killing the prison officials.

Prof. Neil, of Washington, has been suggested." The men gained access to Mrs. Morse's room without awakening her, and before she could make any movement they secured her to the bedposts witli ropes. Then one drew a pistol and threatened to shoot her unless she gave them the desired information. When this threat failed the robb : made preparations to torture M lorse by burning the soles of he. but the discovery of $."D0, a gold waich and a ring on a dresser In the room turned them from their purpose. Before 1870 conclaves were held In the Qulrlnnl palace, one long wing of which was always ready without any special preparation. But in the case of the Vatican apartments of three or four rooms for each cardinal have to be specially prepared, and as there are sixty-four cardinals the amount of work Involved is very great indeed. The section destined for the conclave comprises on the ground floor of the Vatican the three suits of rooms which surround the famous court of Sail Dnmaso, the rooms under the late pope's apartment and the tower, with the rooms about the Sala Ducale. On the second floor the rooms about the Loggia Raphael and the pontifical offices, comprising all the apartm'ents formerly occupied by Cardinal, Rampolla, will be used. The whole will furnish commodious lodging for about "i(J0 people. PENN When the armory was reached officers there fought the convicts, btlt were quickly overpowered, and the prisoners, after fortifying themselves with rifles, knives, pistols and ammunition, made a dash for the country. They are vary anxious that the chief executive find some way in which Ills ruling may be modified so that this condition of affairs will not arise. They are very much exercised over the whole matter and hope that some solution will be found and that the government printing office, in which the employees are members of the various unions, will not become an "open" shop. Tobacco Convicts, each armed with a rifle, marched on either side of Warden Wilkinson, who was threatened with death if he made an attempt to escape, and the officers were told that if any of the pursuers took the life of one of their number the convicts would retaliate, life for life. Save Your Tickets for Valuable Presents SERIOUS RAILWAY ACCIDENT. In another part of tlie house tliey found Mrs. Patrick Turner. They bound her also as they did Mrs. Morse and threatened her with the revolver. Thoroughly terrified, the woman gave Information which led to the discovery of $23. This the men evidently believed was all that could be secured, and, leaving the women helplessly bound, tliey went away. The two women succeeded in freeing themselves an hour after the departure of the burglars. Both are suffering severely from their experience. Wilkcsbarre Young Man Fell Under Cars at L. & B.

Poking, July 28.—The Russian administration of Newehwang has stopped the exportation of wheat to Japan. The export of grain from Chinese ports Is illegal, but the Russians heretofore have ignored the law. During the last week the Japanese obtained many shiploads from Newehwang, apparently preparing for war contingencies. Several ships were employed in bringing wheat from Shanghai and southern ports to Newehwang, where it was transshipped as a direct export. The prohibitory order was issued by the Russian officials last Thursday. At Mormon bridge, about a mile from the penitentiary, the warden, his grandson and Captain Murphy were released and sent back. The other captives were marched along with the convicts. The Sistine chapel, as in the case of the last conclave, will be used for the meetings of the cardinals and the balloting. There, after three solemn funeral services, will be erected a throne for each cardinal. Over the throne will be baldacchinos, or canopies, attached to the wall behind. The moment a new pope is elected lie will lower his baldacchlno as a token of his new dignity, thus silently announced. The Pauline chapel will be used for the celebration of high mass every morning of the conclave, while In the Sala Dueale will be movable altars for the masses to be celebrated every morning by each cardinal.

CONCILIATORS CANNOT AGREE, Aside from the immediate interest aroused in the matter by Miller's reinstatement the members of the various organizations represented say they realize that there Is a broader aspect to the whole ease. They feel that the president's ruling in Miller's case practically makes the government printing office an "open" shop. In which men or women may be employed whether members of any union or not. The officers were outnumbered and were soon relieved of their arms. Then, using the officials as shields, the prisoners started for the armory, on the outskirts of the penitentiary grounds. They passed a Gatling gun on one of the walls, but the guards were afraid to shoot at the convicts for fear of killing the prison officials.

Prof. Neil, of Washington, has been suggested." The men gained access to Mrs. Morse's room without awakening her, and before she could make any movement they secured her to the bedposts witli ropes. Then one drew a pistol and threatened to shoot her unless she gave them the desired information. When this threat failed the robb : made preparations to torture M lorse by burning the soles of he. but the discovery of $."D0, a gold waich and a ring on a dresser In the room turned them from their purpose. Before 1870 conclaves were held In the Qulrlnnl palace, one long wing of which was always ready without any special preparation. But in the case of the Vatican apartments of three or four rooms for each cardinal have to be specially prepared, and as there are sixty-four cardinals the amount of work Involved is very great indeed. The section destined for the conclave comprises on the ground floor of the Vatican the three suits of rooms which surround the famous court of Sail Dnmaso, the rooms under the late pope's apartment and the tower, with the rooms about the Sala Ducale. On the second floor the rooms about the Loggia Raphael and the pontifical offices, comprising all the apartm'ents formerly occupied by Cardinal, Rampolla, will be used. The whole will furnish commodious lodging for about "i(J0 people.

They are vary anxious that the chief executive find some way in which Ills ruling may be modified so that this condition of affairs will not arise. They are very much exercised over the whole matter and hope that some solution will be found and that the government printing office, in which the employees are members of the various unions, will not become an "open" shop. Tobacco Convicts, each armed with a rifle, marched on either side of Warden Wilkinson, who was threatened with death if he made an attempt to escape, and the officers were told that if any of the pursuers took the life of one of their number the convicts would retaliate, life for life.

Poking, July 28.—The Russian administration of Newehwang has stopped the exportation of wheat to Japan. The export of grain from Chinese ports Is illegal, but the Russians heretofore have ignored the law. During the last week the Japanese obtained many shiploads from Newehwang, apparently preparing for war contingencies. Several ships were employed in bringing wheat from Shanghai and southern ports to Newehwang, where it was transshipped as a direct export. The prohibitory order was issued by the Russian officials last Thursday. At Mormon bridge, about a mile from the penitentiary, the warden, his grandson and Captain Murphy were released and sent back. The other captives were marched along with the convicts. The Sistine chapel, as in the case of the last conclave, will be used for the meetings of the cardinals and the balloting. There, after three solemn funeral services, will be erected a throne for each cardinal. Over the throne will be baldacchinos, or canopies, attached to the wall behind. The moment a new pope is elected lie will lower his baldacchlno as a token of his new dignity, thus silently announced. The Pauline chapel will be used for the celebration of high mass every morning of the conclave, while In the Sala Dueale will be movable altars for the masses to be celebrated every morning by each cardinal.
