Removal of the Pope's

London, March 7 A dispatch from
Komo says the German representative
ut the Vatican is bringing to bear all the
influence he can in favor of the removal
of the Cardinal Kampolla doin the office
of pontifical secretary of state. The
cardinal is the pope's second self in po
litical affairs, and it is said it is largely
due to his influence that Pope Leo re
cently came out as advising harmony
between the church and the French re
public. Kampolla is strongly opposed to the
triple alliance chiefly liecause Italy be
longs to it, and he loses no occasion to
make the papacy felt in European poli
tics. Russia in this matter is in concert
with Germany, being offended because
Cardinal Kampolla lias stood out against
the introduction of the Russian lan
guage in the Caiholic liturgy of Poland.
T.ie czar would like to see in Ham
polla's place Cardinal Vaniitelli, who at
tended ut the coronation of the czar and
there made manv fronds a. the Russian
cmu't. What tho result of the intrigues
may be is doubtful, as the pope is
anxious to please Germany und is very
much attached to Kampo-ia.

remote, she may need all the strength
which she has been able to gather since
her last war in 1815. The blessings of
peace have been of the greatest benefit
to the commercial and intellectual devel
opment of the country, and the Sweden
of today is in a more prosperous state of
affairs in every way than the Sweden ol
the past.
There is only one cause lor anxiety,
and that comes from the appearance of
cloud in the eastern political firma
ment. This cloud, although not yet o:
very large dimensions, is, however,
black and heavy, and is regarded by
manv people as the fore-runner of a po
litical tornado, now directing Its mad
course westward towards the Scandina
vian peninsula.
But figurative language will not ex
plain the situation; 1 must state the
tacts.
'Ihe tyrannical acts of the Russian
despot in his endeavor to Russianize
poor Finland are something that may
set every true Swede thinking. The
peace of t redriKsliamn in jbu gave to
Russia Finland, which had been con
nected with Sweden lor 600 years. The
terms of the treaty of peace stipulated,
however, that Finland was not lo be
come a Russian province, but to reta n
its autonomy, though the nominal neau
was to be the czar of Russia under the
title of Grand Duke of Finland.
The first Alexander ignored many of
the agreements, but Alexander 11. was
a good ruler, and asserted that the Fin-
landers were the most loyal oi ins many
subjects. It was during his reign ttiat
the Finnish Lantdag was assenioieu lui
the first time.
Hut what does the present Cznr care
for the most loyal of his subjects? To
Russianize them, to make Finland a
art of his great empire is his aim.
Will he succeed ? Without doubt. Al
ready the Russian language has been
made obligatory in the schools, native
Russians have' been appointed to tin
more paying government offices, the re
iractory newspapers are being confiscat
ed en masse, and the I'lnnisli postage

Finland thoroughly Russianized, thi
,ii in will be the next of the Czar.
It is true that Russia can reach the
North sea by the sound (the water be
tween the 'Danish Seeland and the
Swedish province of Schonen), but a
confederated German-Swedish or Ger
man-Knglisli fleet could, in case of war,
easily prevent this. The German navy
is fully able to compete with that of Ihe
Czar, and as to King Oscar, he asks
every Riksdag lor appropriations for new
inen-oi-war. Jo he shut out irom tne
North Bea is what Russia fears, espe
cially as the great powers will not allow
her to reacli the Mediterranean or the
Indian sea.
The immense realm of the czar lacks
ad in ttance to the oceans, which would
make Russia even stronger and more
powerful than Bhe is at present. A har
bor at Lofoten or any other place on tin
Norwegian coast would help this need in
some degree, Russia thereby being able,
perhaps, to keep her maritime connec
tions, even il the navies of oilier powers

The price of the site is fixed at $15,0)0,
although to the ordinary purchaser il
would have been twice that. The prop

iood his life would probably have been

a few feet north of M.iiion street, was
the scene of the outrage. Mr. Snow left

ol Seventh and Alar ion streets. When

coming up the street rather slowly,
qirung forward, presented a revolver and

As the gun came up Mr. Snow saw
-hat the elevation of it was rather high.
Vcting instantly he warded it off witli a
swing of his leii arm and at the same
ime lie dealt the rohtiera terriiic blow in

Seattle, March 5 Mather an inter
esting case, surrounded by queer circum
stances, has come to light by the issu
ance of a warrant Monday from Judge
Lichtenlierg's court, for the arrest ol
James McMillan, w ho is charged by his
wife with insanity. McM.llan is ulxiui
40 years of ago and a gripinan on the
Madison street cable road. Ho lives
w.th his wife and a nily ne r the Madi
son street power house, and his life ha-
been frugal and industrious. His fam
ily relations, it is sai l, were in every
way happy and agreeable.
McMillan's duties require that he
should begin his work as gripinan at b
o'clock in the afternoon. On Monday
morning he came dow n town, went to
the bank where he did his banking busi
ness and drew his entire deposit of
(70,10 cash and doubtless the savings of a
lifetime. Then he put the money,
which was in small hills, into his pocket
and left the bank. From there he went
to the office of a well know n lawyer and
told him what he had done. McMillan
drew the money from his pockets, all
of which were well tilled w ith the bills,
and displayed it. It is said be told the
lawyer he was going to leave town. His
entire conversation was of a queer
nature. The lawyer heard his story and
been opened today. Banker Ludwick
thinks that the safe's contents are all
right. If this be true $10,0J0 or $15,000
of the bank's money is safe. In the
steel vault were 29 private boxes filled
with valuable bonds, money and stamps.
All of these wer.i broken open and the
contents taken.

Pittsbi no, Pa., March 6 It is stated
that the reduction in freight rates on
iron and steel decided upon yesterday by
the Central TrafHc association, will save
the Pittsburg manufacturers $5000 in the
item of freights. Btrunge y enough, the
reduction ol the n o:i rates, while it re
ceived the approval of the Pittsburg
mill owners, was obtained w ithout any
active agitation on the company's part.
The aggrieved parties who made a hard
ami successful h'.ht to cut down the
rates were the Mahoning and Sheuango
Valley lurnace iron men.
This reduction is the first concession
that railroads have vouchsafed, and
even this will be of more benefit to the
Pittsburg maniilai'lurcs than to the

I hem to market their iron cheaper they
can keep their custom, wliich was being
