It is tlie Intention of the Vatican that the friars of the Augustlnlmi, Dominican, Franciscan and Ilecolleto orders now in Manila, who numlDcr about 450 "men, should leave there in small numbers at different times, so that when the moment comes to resume negotiations between Governor Taft and the npostolic delegation all the friars will have left the archipelago In such a -way that the friar question will have resolved Itself without the necessity of further discussion.

He goes to London Wednesday, thus having three days to recuperate frfim the tiring train journey. His health was greatly benefited by the recent cruise. But It is said today that doctors have suggested that it would be best to cut the coronation ceremony to an hour, so as to run no unnecessary risk.

Flynn, chief of the secret service, and several of his men at 320 Hudson avenue, Brooklyn, The men are Italians, and in their rooms were found fifty sets of plaster molds as well as a collection of burglars' tools.

Washington, Aug. 2.—While no other ultimate outcome of the negotiations on the question was expected by this government than the absolute retirement of the friars from the Philippines, surprise was expressed tliat the Vatican had decided to yield so soon. "You have not mentioned that part of the order referring to slaying and stating the age limit at ten years." "That part of it Is also true; but, as I said before, oHe must know what conditions obtain In Samar and General Smith's personality to grasp the meaning of his order.
