Premier Balfour is apparently meeting with cpnsiderable diffculty in the task of reconstructing his cabinet. It is stated that Mr. Wyndham has been offered the choice of several portfolios, but has decided to 1e- main as chief secretary for Ireland. Owing to the decision that the Fifth and Sixth army corps shall not be constructed through the lack of necessary recruits, it 18 reported that General. Hunter, who was named for the command of the Sixth corps, is to be transferred to India to command the Bombay or Madras districts. This has led to renewed rumors that Gen- eral Hunter will succeed Lord Kitchener as commander in chief in India and the latter will be called home to #ucceed Mr. Brod- rick ag secretary of war. All this, however, is merely speculation. Much public feeling has been displayed against appointing Mr. Brodrick to the Indian office and it is be- lleved the diffculty centers in providing a mecretary for war and a secretary for In- dia. FOHEFN MI_LJER WRITES “Arthur R. D. Eiliott, Who Resigned, Says That Contest in England Will Be Over Tariffa. LONDON, Sept. 22.—Arthur R. D. Elliott, who has just resigned the financial secre- taryship of the treasury because of his disagreement with Premier Balfour's views, writing to one of his constituents in Dur- ham City, says he is in complete agree- ment with the free trade views with ex- Chancellor Ritchie, who found it impossi- ble to hold office any longer in a govern- ment tending steadily toward a policy of protection. He could not retain office with- out an entire loss of self-respect. The time has arrived, he continued, when the electors must decide for or against the policy of taxing imports of food which, though deferred for the moment, will be the ultimate issue. Regarding retaliation and fiscal freedom, Mr. Ellott agrees with Premier Balfour's pamphlet that the gov- ernment should be free to consider cases on thelr mirits and take such action as it considers right, subject to the approval of Purliament. In conclusion he writes that he hopes to retain the confidence of his constituents at the general election, which cannot be far distant.

Despondent and disheartened over coditions, some of which may never be known, Miss Olive Rayl, sister of Dr. WX L. Rayl of Glen- ville, whose body was feumd badly crushed and. severed into sevebul pleces on the Lake Shore tracks in @ordon park early today, threw herself in.front of a passing train or lay down on the tracks to await death. This was the opinion of the police tonight after a day spent by the entire detective force in attempting to unravel the uncertainties which surrounded the terrible death of the young woman. The belief of the police that she wag not murdered and her body placed upon the track (s practically substantiated by the coroner and a second physiclan, who per- formed the autopsy over the body, neither of whom incline to the theory of murder. Notwithstanding their belief that the case 18 one of suicide, the police are still work- ing on it and will continue to do so until further effort in that direction -seems use- less. Miss Rayl came to this ity from Wells- ville, 0., some tme ago to take up the work of nursing with her brother, who is a physician, wnd eatered a training school for nurses almost immediately apon her crfival. Her only cause for relf- destruction, !f the death of the young woman proves to have been such, is a disappointment in a love affair at Wel ville, and this is also said to have been | the cause for Miss ~Pyyl$ jeaving . her home city.

He sald the cholce of the conclave had been most happy from an American viewpoint, as Plus X wi deeply Interested In the development of the church in this count: and was singularly familiar with American The cardinal had several lengthy interviews with the pope regarding church affalrs in this country. The cardinal was not inclined to discuss the probable poliey of the new papal regime, but eaid that no radieal changes in American church admintstration would eusue. He sald that one of the first stepy taken by Plus X was to fustruct his actin secretary of state, Mgr.

Asked about the possibilit of another American dinal beng nppointed Cardi- nal Gibbons answeored: There will be another cardinal, Tt would not surprise me to see the number of Ameri- can cardinals augmented in the near future. But there is absolutely no truth in the cabled statement that the pope purposes to create a patriarchate for the Occident. The stutement is ridiculous. To the Passionist Fathers the cardinai brought a s=pecial blessing from Pope Plus X in response to the message of love and congratulations sent to the pope by them at the time of his election, The Itallan Situation. Concerning the probable relations be- tween the new pope and the Itallan gov- ernment Cardinal Gibbons sald: The pope as patriarch of Venice was on friendly terms with the king, but what a man does when he is a mere private in the ®0 to speak, and when he is ele- vated o power and responsibiljty are dif- ferent things, What Pius X will do in this matter, Is of course unknown. You may re n it, there will be no sudden changes, These things are not done in a way to at- tract attention. If a change does take place, ‘it will be a gradual chauge, the friendliness between the Vatican and the Quirinal will grow. Plus X is not the pa triareh of Venlee, and while he may retain his friendly feclings for the king. these cause no sudden change of papal policy, but will probanly In the course of time bring about a befter stale of things. The king. 1 believe. is influenced feelings toward the pope. CHRISTIANS HOLD MEETING Over One Thousand Delegates Attend the Comfererce at te City.
