MARTYRS OF ROME 10 BE BEATIFE 200 English Catholics, Perse- cuted Until Death, to Be Honored. B the Associated Press. VATICAN CITY, November 8.—More than 200 English Catholics, priests and laymen, martyred for their faith in the period between 1594 and 1679, will be solemnly beatified in St. Peter's basilica with imposing @eremonies some- time during December. In another ceremony of the same sort, Rev. John Ogilive, Scottish Jesuit, who suffered marytrdom during the same time, will be_similarly honored. ‘The most conspicuous figures among those destined to bear the title of Fathers Arthur | Philip | of their beatification, are George Haydock, John Roberts, Bell, Robert Southwell and Howard, Earl of Arundel. - Persecutions Recalled. ‘The persecution began under Queen Elizabeth and continued through the reigns of James I and Charles I and under the Commonwealth. There was a fresh recurrence of executions upon the, discovery of the so-called Oates plot, in 1678. Some were put to death on the gibbet at Tyburn, others hanged in cathedral towns of the English counties, and still others were left to die in prison. In all, there are 244 victims of the religious strife in Great Britain whose “causes” will be examined prior to November 12, the day when the so-called general congregation meets in . the Vatican, the Pope himself being present. Owing to the difficulty of establishing the identities of several of the victims, and doubt as to whether they actually suffered martyrdom, not all of the 244 will be accorded beatification, but in any case it is certain that the honor will be given to at least 200 of their number. Pilgrimage of Scots. | A pilgrimage of Scottish Catholics will come to Rome for the beatifica- §lon of Father John Ogilvie, known by the title of “Venerable” since the seven- teenth century. Father Ogilvie was hrought up as a Calvinst, but was converted at the Uni- versity of Louvain. He entered the Jesuit order, was ordained priest in 1613, and at his own request was sent into Scotland as a missionary, knowing what a price was on his head. After nine months of preaching in Edinburgh and Glasgow, he was be- trayed by informers and was said to have been tortured.during the months in prison in a vain effort to make him reveal the names of Catholics. At the end he was condemned and hanged as a traitor. BANK OFFICIALS CLEARED. | Verdict for Sebring, Fla., Defend- ants Instructed by Judge.

MADRID, Spain, November 8 “(#).— The council of ministers has de- cided to abandon the extraordinary budget beginning January 1, 1930, and to include in the ordinary budget all extraordinary items, including round-figure sums granted minister. ‘The public debt appropriation will be taken out of the surplus, which now is $200,000,000. Premier Primo de Rivera, referring to this, said the government was very happy to be able to do this, and that “financiers of good faith should really consider the country’s credit basis, its soundness, and its values; all this will be reflected on the valorization of our money.” each HOIC PIANDS FOR_ ENT FREE TUNING UNDER RENTAL CONTRACT WORCHS 1110 G EsT1879 In a few days everyorie will be clamoring~ bin to capacity with a free-burning copl And—trade-marked with colored markers for your protection.
