LOXDON, July 30. The Times this
rooming describes seditious religious riots
in the City and Province of Yezu, Cen
tral Persia, which lasted more than a
fortnight, and culminated at the end of
June.

ligious reformers called Babls. In the city
for two days erery Babi found was butch
ered by the rabble, and the mutilated
bodies were dragged through the streets
followed by exultant crowds.
Houses were looted, women murdered
and finally the priestly leaders of the
rioters enjoined the populace to bring
all the Babls before them for judgment.
The Governor refused at first to listen
to the threats of the crowd, but the res
idence was surrounded by menacing mem
bers of the mob and the following day he

Coollen In South Africa nrc Given.
LONDON, July 29. The Parliamentary
corns pondence on the South African la
bor question was issued today. Lord 3111
ner High Commissioner for South Africa,
le. "graphed Colonial Secretary Chamber
lain on July 12, urging the employment
cf 10,00 Indian Coolies for work "on the
ral'ways. the coolies to be forcibly re
patriated at the end of their service. Lord
illiner reported the labor problem alarm
ing in South Africa. He reported there
was not enough natives there. If all
worked, to meet the growing requirements
cf the development of the country's re
sources and that such a dilemma must
eventually land the country In financial
embarrassment. Mr. Chamberlain replied
July 23. generally approving of Lord MII
ners suggestion, but stipulating for the
assent of the whole white population In
South Africa and explaining that It could
only be done with the consent of the In
dian government which insisted on terms
practically amounting to the renewal of
ad restrictions upon Immigration and the
settlement of Indian traders In South
Africa.
According to Mr. Chamberlain's state
ment in the House of Commons last Mon
day when he declared that as long .as
public sentiment was hostile to the prop
osition he would not attempt it. but he he
lievcd opinion was changing, the question
being still unsettled is probably owing
to the reluctance of the South African
people toremove the restrictions on In
dian immigration.

Englishman Usea FreMdent'n Words
a Argument for Free Trade.
LONDON. July 23. Governor F. O.
Schuster, at a meeting of the Union Bank
of London directors, today, made a long
reference to the Brlitsh fiscal controversy.
While be welcomed an Inquiry Into the
fiscal policy of the government, the whdle
tenor of Mr. Schuster's argument was op
posed to tampering with free trade. He
expressed the belief that the United States
was within measurable distance of adopt
ing free trade, and in support of this said
he bad a private Interview with the late
President McKinley two years ago in
which the latter said:
"My tariff bill has done its work. We
have been able to build up many great
industries in a short time, and now grad
ually, but inevitably, our tariff must be
reduced."
Mr. Schuster contended that America's
industrial position tinder protection was
"entirely unattractive nor its worklngmen
contented."

German Wlreleait Company Takes
Exception to Ills Words.
BERLIN, July 29. The German Wire
less Telegraph Company, which was re
cently organized, through the amalgama
tion of the Slaby and Braun systems, has
issued a statement regarding Signor Mar
coni's utterances on the possibility of the
German company Intercepting Marconi
messages in England. Marconi's opinion
that such interception can only occur If
the German stations are erected In Eng
land is. it is declared, erroneous. The
German company says all that is neces
sary is to erect a string of stations on
the shores of the Baltic, or along the
North Sea, attune Its own wires to Mar
coni's station at Poldhu. Cornwall, and
it would be impossible for Marconi to
receive their message. The statement con
cludes: "Such proceedure for controlling a world
monopoly aimed at by Marconi could
hardly be called 'chicanery.' but more
properly self defense"

deafening shouts, the banging of desk lids
and Insults hurled at the Premier from
the opposition benches. The session was
suspended, but the scenes were repeated
on its resumption, and ultimately, being
unable to obtain a hearing, the Premier

motion, moving the reading of the bill.
When the obstructionists became aware
of this action a couple of members of
the Kossuth party stormed the Presiden
tial tribune, snatched the paper from the
clerk's hand and tore it to pieces. The
; tribune was soon filled with shouting Dep
uties and amidst the turmoil the session
was again suspended.
After the session was suspended for the
second time the obstructionists declared

A CAUCUS ON POPE
Spanish Cardinals Will Vote
Solidly for Rampolla.
THE KING'S INFLUENCE IS USED
Italian Papers Charge Gibbons With
Intriffninsr Against a Head of
the Church. From Their
Country.
ROME, July 23, (Special by Cable.) The
Spanish cardinals held a caucus and will
vote solidly for Rampolla. The King
brought great pressure to bear,
The Italian papers accuse Cardinal Gib
bons of Intriguing against an Italian
pope. Gibbons is by far the most con
spicuous foreigner present. An early elec
tion of a pope 1b looked for.
PREPARE FOR CONCLAVE.
Form ot' Balloting; Is Discussed and
Cells Visited.
ROME, July 29. During the meeting of
the congregation today, the forms to be
used during the conclave were discussed
among the cardinals In order that each
might be able to learn how to employ his
ballot. After the meeting Cardinal
Oreglla requested the cardinals to visit
their cells and be prepareu at tomorrow's
meeting to present any complaints which
they may have.
Cardinal Agllardl has relinquished his
cell, near the SIstlne Chapel, to Cardinal
Cretonl, on account of the latter's Illness.
Over the door of each of the cells has
been placed the coat of arms of the card
inal who is to occupy it.
Should all the 62 cardinals now in Rome
enter the conclave, It will be the most
numerously attended in history. The con
clave which electeci Leo was attended by
61 cardinals. In the past popes have been
elected by conclaves containing as low as
nine.
The ecclesiastics who are to watch the
sliding doors, which will be the only
means of communication between the con
clave and the outside world, have been re
quested to be present at the Vatican Fri
day afternoon to assume their duties. The
sliding doors will only be opened between
9 and 11:30 In the morning, and between 5
and 7 in the evening. At all other times
they will be locked.
The second requiem mass in the SIstlne
chapel was termed the foreign mass. Card
inal Kopp. bishop of Brest, celebrated
mass, assisted by the foreign cardinals,
Goossens, Gruscha and Perraud, and one
Italian cardinal, Dl Pletro. The beautiful
chapel overflowed as It did yesterday with
the faithful.
The Vatican as a rule provides a car
riage and horses for all the cardinals,
and all the horses are alike, black with
long tails, but the authorities were not
prepared for so many cardinals and were
obliged; to give the last arrivals bay
horses.
From the estimates made the cost to the
holy see of the various ceremonies from
the death of the pope to the election of
his successor. If It takes place within a
few days, will be $400,000.
LOGUE DEFENDS GOTTI.
Because He Is a Carmelite Does Not
Follow He Is Xarrovr-SIinttcil,
ROME, July 29. Cardinal Logui. arch
bishop of Armagh, had an interview to
day with Cardinal Gibbons. When asked
wha't he thought of the objections fre
quently mentioned against Cardinal Gotti
being elected pope on the ground of his
being a member of a religious order
would prevent him from dealing in a
broad spirit with Catholie problems in
America and Great Britain, Cardinal
Logue said to a representative of the As
sociated Press:
"It is absurd. Cardinal Gotti was form
erly an Internuncio, and -has mixed with
the representatives of the various powers.
He knows the prevailing conditions as
well as anybody. Just because he is a
Carmelite, It does not follow that he Is
narrow minded.
"Moreover, it Is unreasonable to attrib
ute too much weight to the personality
of the new pope. International matters
and Internal policy are now almost Invar
iably settled by committees of cartilnals,
who, certainly under the late Pope Leo,
directed their departments Just as much
as the heads of departments of a civil
government direct their department.
"But, who ever may be pope, It Is not
likely that he will attempt to make any
changes In policy without being careful
to take the adVice of those commissions
which have heretofore directed the policy
of the Vatican."
Two Cardinals Will Not Be Present.
ROME, July 29. With the arrival here
of Cardinal Prisci, archbishop of Naples,
the number of cardinals who will partici
pate In the conclave is complete and totals
62. Of the two remaining, Cardinal Cele
sta, archbishop of Palermo, cannot leave
Palermo because of his health, and Card
inal Moran, archbishop of Sydney, N. S
W.. although he has left Sydney, cannot!
It Is believed, arrive here before August
20, when it is supnoseo the conclave will
be over.
SUGAR BILL TO SECOND READING.
Chamberlain Refers to Fiscal Policy,
and Urges All to Keep Cool.
LONDON, Jul5- 29. The House of Com
mons today passed the sugar convention
bill to Its second reading by a vote of 224
to 144. In the course of the debate. Colo
nial Secretary Chamberlain, In referring
to the possibility of losing the American
market, said:
"If we had only treated the West In
dies fairly, there is no reason why they
should not be supplying us with the great
er part of our demand. The government
has had the choice between prohibition
and rebating duties."
He believed prohibition the simplest
plan, but If it should be necessary, he
would take the opinion of Parliament on
the question of countervailing duties. Mr.
Chamberlain did not touch directly upon
the fiscal question, but Incidentally re
marked, "we are on the eve .of a great
economic fight, and it behooves everybody
to keep cool as long as possible, and not
turn this economic into a personal fight."
TO HAVE FREE SPEECH NO MORE.
China Shows Its "New Policy Iy Ar
resting Editors for Sedition.
PEKIN, July 29. The Chinese who are
advocating government reforms have
been terrorized by the readoptlon of the
old policy of repression, as instanced by
the recent arrest at Shanghai of Chinese
editors on charges of sedition. These ar
rests are Interpreted hero as Indicating
that the extreme Conservatives are in the
ascendency, and the government has de
termined to suppress tho freedom of
speech which has prevailed since the up
heaval of 190O. The names of 40 residents
of Pekln who aro accusal at iihnmi ten
dencies were presented to the Dowager
Empress today by the reactionary offi
cials, who recommend that they be se
verely punished, Those accused are con
sidered guilty of only what In enlightened
countries would be tho legitimate criti
cism of the government. This Is Bald alscr
to be truo of the native journalists Im
prisoned at Shanghai, except In the case
of two who suggested the assassination
of the Manchu rulers" as a remedy for
China's troubles.
All foreigners and progressive Chinese
afe deeply interested in the decision which
the Ministers will make on the question
of turning ovec the native editors arrest
ed at Shanghai to Chinese jurisdiction,
and they express the hope that technical
lues concerning the Jurisdiction of the
court will beIgnored, if necessary, and
that the Ministers will refuse on the
ground of humanity to deliver the pris
oners to the Chinese for probable torture
and execution, as happened In the case of
the Chinese who were turned over to the
Chinese officials at Shanghai during tho
Japanese War.
Chang Chi Tung, Viceroy of Nankin, is
credited with the leadership of the reac
tionary party, advising such a course to
the Empress Dowager, who will acquiesce.
Prince Chlng is reported to favor leniency.
HONORS MEMORY OF KING.
Rome Holds Mass and Marches to tho
Tomb of Hambert.
ROME, July 29. Rome this morning
was the scene of one of those dramatic
contrasts which are now so characteristic
of the Eternal City. While at the Vati
can, In the Sl3tlne Chapel, a solemn
requiem mass waa being Intoned with all
the solemnity the Catholic church can
Impose, for the repose of the soul of Pope
Leo XIII, the spiritual monarch who
claimed Rome as his capital, another and
no less solemn requiem mass was being
celebrated In the magnificent Pantheon
for the repose of the soul of the late King
Humbert, the temporal monarch, the cap
ital of whose kingdom was Rome.
King Victor Emmanuel III and hla
mother. Dowager Queen Margaret, came'
here on purpose to attend the annual mass
which is celebrated on the anniversary of
the atoasslnation of King Humbert, which
occurred three years ago. The King drove
to the Pantheon, the well-known red liv
eries of hla coachmen and footmen arous
ing much interest, and arrived there in
time to meet Queen Margaret, who was
dressed In deepest black. After a tender
embrace, mother and son entered the
Pantheon, heard the mass and placed
wreaths on the tombs of King Humbert
and King Victor Emmanuel ll. The en
trance and exit of Their Majesties were
witnessed by a large crowd.
At 11 o'clock the. members of the mu
nicipality of Rome, with the exception of
a few of their number, who a few days
ago went to the Vatican to condole with
the camerllngo on Pope Leo's death, as
representatives of the Clerical party of
the city government, visited the Pantheon
in a body and placed wreaths on the
tombs of the two Kings.
In the evening there was a public pro
cession through the streets to the tomb
of King Humbert and King Victor Em
manuel. It passed oft quietly, though
thousands of persons witnessed the dem
onstration, and the procession Itself was
over a mile In length. Throughout the
route the piazzas and streets were
thronged with orderly spectators. All the
shops were shut, and there were more
outward signs of mourning than have
been seen in Rome during recent years.
The procession, which was mostly com
posed of local patriotic societies and bands,
wa3 very picturesque. The veteran corps
carried many banners, and Italian flags
draped with crepe, ""Besides hundreds of
wreaths, which they laid on the tombs of
King Humbert and Victor Emmanuel at
the Pantheon.
The general opinion was expressed that
the antl-Clerlcals succeeded In making a
successful counter-demonstration against
the recent activity of the Clericals, but
that they did . so without any breach of
propriety and without wounding- the feel
ings of the Catholics and regardless of po
litical affiliations.

PORT OF SPAJN, Island of Trinidad,
July 29. The Spanish Consul at La
Guayra, Venezuela, haa been deprived of
his exequatur, according to passengers
who have just arrived from La Guayra.
Th action Is the result of the friction
between the Consul and the locel author
ities over the Spanish claims in his district
against Venezuela.
The passengers say the Spanish Consul
requested the authorities at La Guayra to
give him permission to attend the meet
ings of the Claims Commission. It lsf al

federal authorities are then said to have

out notifying the Spanish Minister.
Twenty Thousand People Expected.
LONDON. July 30. The Daily Mail this
morning prints a St. Petersburg dispatch
stating that 20,000 people are expected to
attend the ceremonies at the Tsarhoff.
The correjpondent asserts that the Czar's
pilgrimage at Oils time la due to the gov
ernment's desire to divert the public mind
from the increasing revolutionary senti
ment. In this belief the correspondent
says the anti-government parties are al
ready spreading reports that miracles at
tributed to the hermit saint are untrue.

Employers Stand Together to 3Iake
One Firm's Strikers Go In.
PITTSBURG, July 23. Indications point
to an almost entire suspension of bulltVng
operations In the Pittsburg district within
AH hoars, rthe result of -a fight.-betweea the
Building Trades Council and the Building
Exchange members.
A week ago the Building Trades Council
ordered a strike of all men affiliated with
them who were employed by the contract
ing firm of A. & S. Wilson, because the
firm employed a nonunion hoisting engi
neer on one of the contracts and refused
to sign the scale. This order affected 10.
000 men, and effectually tied up the ma
jority of the firm's contracts.
Tonight the Builders Exchange League,
of which the Wilson firm Is a member,
took up the matter and after a full dis
cussion of the subject, adopted a resolu
tion which called for the appointment of
a committee to notify the Building Trades
Council thatunless the employes of A-. &
S. Wilson, who are on strike, return to
work within 43 hours that the employers
of all workmen connected with the Build
ing Trades Council will suspend operations
until the matter has been satisfactorily
settled with the Builders' Exchange
League.

oring to induce the engineers to Join
them. Thousands of people were late In

AS WE ALONE TREAT
VIen'sDiseases
The position we occupy among
specialists in our particular branch
of practice Is unique. Our methods
of treatment are unlike those em
ployed by other physicians. They
are original with ourselves, and are
the most effective method ever de
vised. They Involve the scientific
application of every curative Influ
ence known to be helpful In the
treatment of men's diseases. Our
ofllces are an exposition of delicate
and costly equipment, much of
which Is especially constructed to
meet the requirements of our dis
tinctive methods of treatment. We
have hesitated at no expense that
could add to the efficiency of .our
work or the comfort of our pa
tients. There Is no other equally
equipped Institute of the kind in
the Pacific Northwest.

"Weakness"
That disorder commonly known
as "weakness" has for years and
generations baffled the efforts ot
physicians, yet to this day a major
ity of doctors, specialists not ex
cepted, are attempting to overcome
it by methods that have been in
constant use and have constantly
failed for half a century. They
Jose the system withpowerfulstim--Jlants
and tonics calculated to re
store nervous forco or strength that
is not nor never has been lacking,
with the result that the functions
are temporarily excited, to the posi
tive detriment of the patient.
"Weakness," we will call it such
for convenience' sake Just now, is
only a symptom resulting trom a
cnronicaiiy swollen and inflamed
prostate gland, and Is curable by
local treatment only. Either early
clssipacion or some irnproperly
:reated contracted disease is respon
sible for the lnaflmmatlon. In
most Instances, though, accidental
Injury, strain, etc., may produce
the same result. We have per
manently cured thousands of cases
of prematureness, loss of power,
etc., without the giving of a single
internal dose, which demonstrate
the absolute accuracy of our under
standing and treatment of this dis
order. In years we have not met
with a single failure, and we have
entire conndence in our ability to
jcure all cases that come to us for
treatment.
Stricture -v
Our treatment of stricture Is en
tirely Independent of surgery. A
complete cure Is accomplished with
out cutting or dilating. All growths
or obstructions in the urinary pas
sage are dissolved, the membranes
cleansed, and all Irritations or con
gestion removed, through the or
gans Involved.
Specific Blood Poison
We cure this leprous disease com
pletely. I The system is thoroughly
cleansed and every poisonous taint
removed. The last symptom van
ishes to appear no more, and all
Is accomplished by the use of
harmless blood-cleansing remedies.
Do not submit to the dangerous
mineral dosing commonly Indulged
In. Such treatment merely obscures
the symptoms.
Contracted Disorders
Kvcry contracted disease Is at
tended by grave dangers that noth
ing les3 than a thorough and ab
solute cure can remove. To tako
iven the slightest chance In such
case3 Is to invite lifelong misery.
Men do not realize this as they
should. A partial cure is followed
by a chronic stage with all Its
horrors, the same as though the
disease had not been treated at all.
We positively will not dismiss a
patient until every possibility of a
relapse is removed. By our system
of treatment every patient is sound
ly cured and made as free from dis
ease taint as he was before the
ailment was contracted.
PILES
Quick Cures Certain Cures
We cure the worst cases of piles
permanently without the use of
ointments, without pain, cutting or
detention from business, in from
two to three treatments. Our treat
ment Is entirely new and peculiar
to ourselves. Remember, no mat
ter who has failed before in your
case, we will cure you with mild
methods, and without danger, or
else make no charge whatever for
our services.
Should you live at a distance, we
can treat you successfully at home.
WE ARE ALWAYS WILL
ING TO WAIT FOR OUR
FEE UNTIL A CURE IS
EFFECTED.
