Entire Garrison Is Used to Guard the Vatican and French Embassy. FIFTH, SIXTH & WASHINGTON STS. THRONG CHARGES TROOPS a KACLM in vs V IF Until Late In the Evening the Streets Are Swarming With Thousands of Shouting and Singing Demonstrators. ROME, Dec. 18. Thousands of demon Itrators friendly to France and of anti Vatican tendencies gathered tonight in the piazza adjoining the Farnese Palace, the seat of the French Embassy, in an endeavor to express their pleasure at France's action toward the church. The whole garrison of Rome was em ployed to disperse the demonstrants and protect the Vatican, which Is surrounded by cavalry, and the bridges to the apostolio palace are barricaded by troops. All the streets leading to the Farnese Palace are protected by soldiers with fixed bayonets. The demonstrators, led by a dozen radical Socialists and Republican mem bers of the Chamber of Deputies, includ ing Prince Borghese, after vainly attempt ing to break the cordon, provided them selves with candles and formed Into a mock procession, Intoning the "Miserere" as an indication of the death of clerical ism, amidst cries of "Iong life France!" "Long live Clemenceau!" and "Down with the Vatican!" Deputies Costa and De Felice tried to harangue the people, but the police in terfered. The demonstration occurred near the monument to Giordano Bruno, the monk philosopher, who was burled alive, a victim of religious Intolerance. Deputy Costa Anally made himself heard. He said: "Before this monument to Bruno, of free thought, let us send our applause to France, for this great people Is con tinuing the traditional obstinate struggle against the moth-eaten clericalism." Fresh attempts were then made to beat back the cordon, and the cavalry charged the demonstrators, a few of' whom were slightly injured. Amid roars and shouts and the singing of the "Marseillaise" the foment continued until late in the even ing. I A committee of the demonstrators was received by M. Barro, the French Am bassador, who expressed his appreciation and sympathy for the Roman people. The stand that the government Is taking is that although Italy Is friendly to France she does not wish to take sides In the dispute, especially when her relations with the church are better now than they have been since 1870. DENIALS FROM THE VATICAN Communication Touches on Xuncla tion Affair and Ilohenlohe Memoirs ROME. Dec. 16. A communication Is sued at the Vatican this evening reiter ates the previous statement given out that the object of the French government in seizing the archives In the nunciature at Paris after the expulsion of Mgr. Montagninl was to diffuse false news in order to make the public believe that In the papers taken were "low Insinua tions of a money bargain for the appoint ment of bishops, gambling on the stock exchange," etc. The statement repeats the Vatican's original denunciation of the tactics em ployed In securing the papers, and es pecially denounces what it terms efforts to make appear as' negotiations of the Vatican with Mgr. Montagninl some of the letters which, it says, may have been received and kept as documents, but which no honest man could take as a basis for facts that did not exist. Such letters, it la declared, may even have been sent on purpose to Mgr. Montagninl in order to have a dossier ready when the search was made. With regard to the alleged arrangement with the Spanish Ambassador at Parts for the care of the archives of the nun ciature, the communication says that neither the Vatican nor the Spanish Am bassador to the Vatican ever thought of communicating with the Spanish Am bassador at Paris without first entering into an agreement. With, regard to the statement published in the National Zeltung of Berlin at tributing to hitherto unpublished portions of the memoirs of Prince Ilohenlohe the declaration that Pope Leo XIII asked Emperor William for a gift of $100,000, the communication declares it be absurd. FRENCHMEN ATTEND MASS. 4 Hat-Wearing Rowdies Quickly Eject ed From the Churches. PARIS. Dec. 16. The serious disturb ances that it was thought would ensue the first Sunday under the law separat ing church and state were not realized. The services in this city in particular passed off quietly. Ther was a notable increase In the stse of the congregations, and in them were large bodies of men who were determined forcibly to prevent the interruption of masses by rowdies. There were only a few cases where row dies entered the churches wearing their hats, and they were promptly ejected and arrested. Reports from the provinces show that there was great excitement at many places. Large congregations chanted the psalms. Counter demonstrations took place In several cities, notably Per pignan and Amiens, where the Catholics and free-thinkers came into collision, necessitating Interference by the police, who quickly dispersed the crowds. Sev eral of the demonstrators were Injured. Bishop DeBryl, while receiving the of ficial notice to leave the bishopric of Maux this morning, suffered a violent nervous shock and fell unconscious.

NO HOPE FOR A COMPROMISE Archbishop Blenk Says France Must Yield to the Vatican. NEW YORK, Dec. 16. Archbishop J. Blenk, of New Orleans, aatd today that he believed a compromise between the Catholic Church and the French govern ment under existing conditions is impos sible. He said further: I believe the final outcome will be favor able to the established order of things, and I hope that at no far distant date the God denying republic In France may be replaced by a God-fearing republic and that all In habitants may learn the solemn lessons of history, that all attempts, no matter how assiduously and cunningly made, to rob man of religion and his rights, without which life becomes a curse, spell supreme folly and failure.

Brilliant Record on Gridiron and as Ail-Around Performer Brings Him Honors. Gordon C. Moores, who has been chos en captain of the University of Oregon football team for 1907, is evidently a popu lar man with his fellow students. He is the first Oregon man ever elected to head both the track team and the football team at Eugene. The big, good-natured, fleet-footed lad who has won so many honors for Oregon, will no doubt close his college career with a great athletic record. It was the brilliant playing of Moores that enabled Oregon to tie the University of California and win from O. A. C. and Willamette last season. His playing in the recent Oregon-Multnomah game placed the ball in a position where the famous Moullen had little difficulty in booting it over the crossbar. Moores also shines on' the track. He is a good hurdler and sprinter, his favorite event being the 220-yard hurdle, in which he holds the Northwest collegiate record of 25 2-5 seconds. He has run the 120-yard hurdle in 16 seconds, the 220-yard dash in 22 4-6 sec onds, and the 100-yard dash in 101-5 sec onds. The captain-elect is well known in this city. He Is a member of Multnomah Club and Is one of the athletes who wore the winged M at the Spokane meet last June. He won the 220-yard hurdle race in this meet and was second to Smithson when he ran the 120-yard hurdle race in 15 2-5 seconds. The University of Oregon has never had a better all-around athlete than Moores, and his election meets with general ap proval. If reports from Eugene are true, Arn fcplger, Oregon's crack tackle, had a fol lowing on the team, and had he contested tho election of Moores, might have devel oped considerable strength. In order to avoid a contest and to prevent any pos sible discord in the team, Arnspiger with drew and the election of Moores was made unanimous. Arnsplger's action has been the cause of much favorable com ment, and he is more popular than ever with his college associates. Oregon has a habit of electing her captains unanimously and the men seem always to pull together through thick and thin. If there is any discord in the ranks of the team it never becomes known to outsiders. It is this spirit and the "fight-to-the-last ditch" spirit that has won for Oregon so many gridiron battles and brought re nown to the varsity on track and field.

CASE TO BE SIDETRACKED Interested Denver Men Declare Spe cial Agent Myendorff Is to Be Drivpn .From Service and New District Attorney Appointed. DENVER. Colo., Dec. 16. (Special.) Investigation into the Union Pacific coal land frauds in Wyoming will not be pro ductive of any good to the public, and the company will not only be permitted to retain possession of the $60,000,000 worth of coal land which it is said to have gained illegally, but no officials -of the Union Pacific Company will suffer be cause of their alleged frauds. This, Den ver men interested in the unearthing of the frauds say. Is the programme pre pared by, the Harrlman railroads. Michael Myendorff, the special agent of the Land Office who unearthed most of the testimony against the Union Pacific, is to be driven from the service of the Government, according to the same au thority. A new United States District Attorney will be placed In office In Wyo ming by the Union Pacific and this offi cer of the law. it is alleged, will not call a grand Jury to bring indictments against those Implicated In the frauds. Attorney J. T. Marchand. of the Inter state Commerce Commission, has re signed from the office and Elmer E. Tho mas; his assistant, is having his hands tied so effectively that the evidence dis closed can never be used to advantage, it is said. Whether President Roosevelt will submit to this programme is yet to be seen. From present appearances the Utah Fuel Company will be used as a scape goat and a thing which makes this look probable la that the evidence taken by the Interstate Commerce Commission at its last sitting in Denver was confined strictly to the Gould companies doing business in Colorado and Utah. Denver men started the inquiry to force tho Union Pacific to permit them to operate coal mines.. They say that the Union Pa cific Is entrenched as strong as ever and that It Is impossible to do business in Wyoming. It is general talk In Wyoming that nothing will come of the investigation. GREAT CHANGES COMING Paramount Need Is Patriotic Citizen ship, Says Justice Brewer. NEW YORK. Dec. 16. "We are busy denouncing trusts, but the most danger ous of them all is the trust in the future to pay debts," said Justice David J. Brewer, of the Supreme Court of the United States, at a meeting of the Peo ple's Forum of New Rochelle. "Our great expansion and rapid growth in population and resources are devel oping a habit of extravagance. We have been most unwisely discounting the future. "We are trembling on the verge of wondrous social and political changes. Those most Important, most profoundly involving the social business and politi cal life of the Republic do not spring from railroad rates and rebates, inspec tion of packing houses, the coal trust or the Standard OH Company. Far more profound and vita! is the building up within this Nation -of a universal body of honest, intelligent, patriotic citizen ship. In our successes in this direction lies the promise and prophecy of the future." MARINES DEMAND WAGES Riotous Disturbance Near Gates of the Ylldea Kiosk. CONSTANTINOPLE. Dec. 16.
